"Caw … Get ready!"
This was the second layer of the sea of clouds, which was also the boundless sea of clouds plain. It was originally a spacious paradise for atmospheric creatures, but now, it was filled with a large number of white figures.
There were hundreds of white skeletal dragons in shiny armor, holding weapons such as crossbows and spears in their hands. They stared at the plain in the distance in a fully armed posture.
The sea of clouds in the distance that was originally calm suddenly had an abnormality. One part of the sea of clouds suddenly bulged. Seeing this, the white skeletal dragons immediately tightened their grip on their weapons nervously …
"They're coming! Get ready! " The captain, who was holding a long stick, shouted. The sea of clouds bulged higher and higher, and then, a giant creature flew out of the sea of clouds.
"Caw! It's the Reef Jellyfish! Shoot! "
At this moment, all the white skeletal dragons with crossbows activated the crossbows in their hands. A large number of arrows flew out and landed on the back of the creature.
Hit by a large number of arrows, the creature's speed did not decrease at all. It rushed out of the clouds and slammed into the white skeletal dragons.
"Caw!" The white skeletal dragons quickly scattered to the sides. The giant jellyfish rushed directly into the sea of clouds, and at the same time, knocked away a few white skeletal dragons who did not have time to dodge …
"Caw! Now! "
The captain suddenly shouted. A large number of silver ropes suddenly shot out of the sea of clouds and tied the jellyfish up in the ropes.
"Caw!" The jellyfish kept struggling in the ropes, but it could not break free at all.
"Caw! We did it! " The white skeletal dragons around cheered. They did not look for their companions who were knocked away, but gathered around the jellyfish.
This jellyfish was more than ten meters long. Its whole body was covered in gray and black skin. In addition to many arrows stuck in its thick and heavy back. There were also many sea creatures like barnacles on its back. These things proved that it came from the sea …
"The new trap made by the Wave Bringer is really useful!" a white skeletal dragon said. "It can even tie up such a big thing, caw!"
"But it's very troublesome to trigger this thing. If it didn't rush over the sea of clouds, I'm afraid it would be difficult to deal with."
"But since we've won, we should celebrate, caw!"
"We don't have time to celebrate. They have already destroyed two Cloud Villages recently." The captain of the White Skeleton Dragons walked up to the struggling jellyfish and said, "More and more of these attacks have been happening. We have to step up our defense and patrol."
"They're monsters hiding in the Dark Abyss," a Skeleton Dragon said. "We can only attack the Abyss. Only then can we exterminate them completely. "
"That's impossible. We can't possibly enter the sea." The captain said, "All we can do is defend this place with all our might … War will come very soon."
"War? The sea monsters? "The white skeleton dragon was puzzled." Can these creatures form a collective attack? "
"No …" the captain said. "The creator's intention is that we will face an even more powerful … creature."
…
At the same time, on the other side.
The spy's exploration continued. Currently, Lin already knew that these sea creatures had a special relationship with atmospheric creatures.
But how did they achieve such a special relationship?
Perhaps … everything in front of me will give me an answer …
The spy had left the place filled with golden beetles. Most of the beetles had once again entered a state of deep sleep. This was obviously a way to survive when there was a lack of water and food.
But this also proved it. There used to be a lot of water and food here.
Now, the spy was walking in an underground tunnel. This was a hidden passage found in the beetle room, and its direction was exactly the same as the creator's current location.
So, Lin planned to go directly through this passage. In this passage, Lin also saw a lot of scenes from the past.
… There were a lot of remains of creatures.
However, it was not the remains of half-fish, but the shell fragments of many shellfish, snails, and marine arthropods. They were piled up in this passage and covered the ground like gravel.
For some reason, these things were all piled up in this place. Lin also discovered a lot of 'Crystal Crazed Shells' among them. They seemed to have lived in this underground cavern in the past, but now, only a few of them could be found in the sea of clouds above.
If the Skeleton Dragon found this place, the Jing Kuang shells might not be called Jing Kuang shells anymore.
Every time the spy stepped on these broken shells, a series of cracking sounds would be heard. They were quite fragile and could be easily crushed.
This also allowed the spy to discover some things buried in the broken shells …
The spy bent down and picked up a golden object from the pile of shells.
It looked like a scorpion's pincers, but without the back part of the arm. In fact, it was a part of the golden statues outside.
There were a lot of similar things here. The spy threw away the golden pincers and picked up another golden leg joint. Then, he found another golden object.
There were more and more of these things. Lin felt that these things were actually made by imitating the scarab from before. They had a lot of similarities, including the material.
Moreover, the creator of these golden statues was just ahead.
The spy stepped into an open space. The ground here was full of broken shells and all kinds of golden parts.
In the center of these things, there was a very conspicuous object. It looked like a huge cube. It was ten meters tall and ten meters long. If you knocked on its shell, you would hear some complicated echoes.
These sounds meant that the structure inside was quite complicated. In fact, Lin had seen this thing in the scarab's memory. When she first saw it, Lin suspected that it was some kind of manufacturing device.
The spy climbed onto the cube. There was a door on top of the cube that could be opened. After opening the door, he saw a lot of complicated structures inside, very much like the statue making machine he saw before.
Sure enough, this thing was used to make things.
It probably couldn't make the whole statue, but it could make some parts. These parts probably had to be put together somewhere else.
This thing was very old. It probably couldn't be activated. But he could study the structure inside.
The spy put some small units into the cube. He had eaten some scarabs before, so the various units he had used on the journey were replenished.
This thing … It was just as Lin thought. It was used to assemble the parts of the golden statues. There didn't seem to be anything special about it, and the way to assemble it was very simple.
It was powered by electricity. It seemed that it could be activated by throwing in raw materials. But now, it was damaged inside. And there was no energy left. It couldn't be used at all …
Maybe the half-fish used this thing to make all kinds of statues in the past. But who was the creator of this thing? Was it the 'creator'?
"Boom …"
Just as Lin was thinking, she suddenly heard a sound in the distance.
The spy jumped down from the cube and quickly walked in the direction of the sound.
This smell … was very familiar …
After walking for a while, the spy found that there was a rock in front of him, and there was a light behind the rock.
The spy climbed onto the rock. Lin saw something very similar to the one she saw before …
It also looked like a cube, but it was hanging on the top of the cave, below the cube. There was a statue of a white dragon shining with golden light. It was still holding its head with both hands in a strange posture.
There were two torches next to it. They lit up the environment here.
This was a newly created thing.
The spy walked in front of the statue and looked carefully. He could find some traces of the 'creator' on the statue. This meant that there was a 'creator' here just now, and it wasn't the one Lin saw before.
There were two 'creators' here? No, there could be more. Right now, Lin only knew that one of their purposes here was to make some new golden statues.
The spy looked at the cube above. This was no different from the one he saw before, and it was also very old. Could it be that this golden white dragon statue was pieced together from that cube? But how was it spelled?
"Caw …"
Just as the spy was thinking about it, the White Skeleton Dragon statue in front of him suddenly moved. Furthermore, a loud and clear sound came from its mouth.
"Caw, you must prepare quickly."
… It seemed that there was a controller inside this statue? But its words were very strange. The spy asked it, "Prepare for what?"
"I am responsible for conveying the will of the creator." The statue raised its hand high and pointed upwards. "The creator is watching you from the sky, inhabitants of the white clouds."
"… That's the top of the cave."
"The creator is watching your growth. You already have considerable wisdom, but you are still not strong enough, so he specially asked us to help you …" The statue raised its leg and stomped heavily on the ground.
"Boom!" Under its stomp, the ground shook violently. The sand on the ground rolled away, and Lin saw a golden sword sticking out from the sand.
"You will face a challenge." The statue crouched down, picked up the golden sword, and handed it to the spy.
"A group of ancient, terrifying creatures have set their sights on our kingdom. They are attempting to challenge the creator and destroy everything. Inhabitants of the white clouds, you will be the warriors of the creator. You will face them and defeat them." The statue spoke: "And now, you! You are the first white inhabitant I saw. You have been recognized. Go, take this weapon, become the greatest hero, and lead your dragonkind into battle! "
"Terrifying creatures?" the spy touched the sword in his hand and asked: "What is that?"
The statue answered: "Very terrifying."
"But what kind of creatures are they?"
"Very terrifying."
"What kind of creatures are they?"
"Very terrifying."
"…" The spy was speechless.
