As a matter of fact, Xi Wei did run into some trouble when the tsunami struck.
That was why he had to contact the Great Lion for the first time and ask for his help.
"You're saying that the blue radiance pierced right through your divine kingdom and landed right in front of you?" The Great Lion stared at the corporeal radiance that resembled a sky-blue spear stuck in the ground.
"That's right. It's really scary …" Xi Wei was still fearful.
It wasn't that he hadn't encountered a situation where his Divine Kingdom was invaded. The last guy who did was still waiting to be squeezed dry in a juicer. But this time, the thing that invaded his Divine Kingdom was too invasive and destructive, so much so that he didn't dare to investigate what it was.
It was fortunate that the Great Lion was experienced and knowledgeable. After poking the corporeal radiance with his snow-white tail, the Great Lion had a look that said 'I see'.
"What's that?" Xi Wei quickly asked.
"That's the divine power of the Ocean Goddess. You've really pissed her off …"
"Save me, Big Pot!" Xi Wei promptly begged the Great Lion for help.
"There's no saving you. Just wait for your death. Goodbye!" The Great Lion was about to leave after that, but was stopped by Xi Wei.
"Alright. That divine power is basically an ultimatum for you. Hmmm, it's not quite right to call it an ultimatum." As if considering how to explain it, the Great Lion tilted his head and pondered for a long time before he simply recited from the book. "To put it simply, it's as if she had used her divine power to create a challenge letter for you. She's prepared to have you undergo the Three Trials, and if you can't pass them, she'll kill you herself even if you don't die in the trials."
"Then if I pass the trials, wouldn't all grudges be forgotten?" Xi Wei's sphere brightened as if he saw hope.
"In your dreams. She'll probably take you in as a subordinate deity if you pass the trials." The Great Lion said without hesitation.
"Then why doesn't she just come over and beat me up …"
Xi Wei was adamant that it was impossible for him to become a subordinate deity, not in this lifetime …
"According to my intel, the Earth Church is busy reclaiming land from the sea. Most of the Ocean God's attention is focused on the Earthweaver. That's why he doesn't have time to pay attention to a weak god like you."
The Great Lion answered Xi Wei's question. "The Three Trials would appear one after the other, and this divine power only records the contents of the first trial. The first trial is a trial for your believer. She left a fishmen island near one of your churches. "
"Fishmen Island?"
Xi Wei couldn't help but think of the island in One Piece that was ten thousand meters under the sea.
However, he quickly regained his senses.
Although there were mermaids in this world, they were much rarer than frogmen.
Under normal circumstances, the murlocs were closer to the four-legged, human-headed, fish-headed monsters in World of Warcraft.
They had a completely different civilization from the creatures on land. They used coral weapons, had their own language and beliefs, and were very fierce and barbaric.
At present, more than ninety percent of the oceans were considered forbidden zones for humans. Aside from the frightening sea monsters, the murlocs were even more ferocious than pirates.
Some coastal areas were often attacked by the murlocs as well, and even now, humans had no solution to these creatures that were second only to goblins in terms of danger and annoyance.
"That's right. There's also a Sea Eye at the center of the fishmen island, which would continuously send murlocs from their deep-sea dwellings to the island … the Sea Eye could only be closed after finding the seven Sea Sapphires hidden on the island, defeating the guardians of the gems and destroying all the gems." The Great Lion did his best to explain the information he had gleaned from the divine power. "If your believers could close the Ocean Eye, the first trial would be considered a success. On the other hand, if your church on the shore is destroyed, the second trial would be considered a failure. Moreover, you are forbidden from personally coming to help because it's a believer's trial. "
"Wait a minute. Didn't you just say 'endless'?" Xi Wei's eyes lit up again.
"That's right. The murlocs are a very troublesome race. Their numbers are massive and their appetites are not small, which is why they would constantly attack buildings on land when their stomachs are rumbling. It's best if you gather all your believers and prepare for this trial."
"Let me confirm." Xi Wei was not in a hurry to express his stance despite knowing that the Great Lion was being kind, and instead asked, "The next trial wouldn't start as long as this one doesn't end, right?"
"Theoretically, yes. Why?" The Great Lion asked curiously.
Alright, a battlefield that spawns monsters without limit and allows the Players to farm repeatedly has appeared.
And unlike dungeons, this thing wouldn't consume Xi Wei's divine power.
Moreover, while the murlocs weren't rich, they would still have things such as pearls, corals, and hawksbill turtles that were common in the sea but rare on land. The Players could use those as specialties to trade with merchants from other places!
Why would they even bother hunting for the Sea Sapphires? The fishmen island was a treasure trove, and the Players would instead have to protect the Sea Sapphires so that they wouldn't be destroyed by the murlocs!
"What are you doing?" The Great Lion watched in surprise as Xi Wei's tentacles wrapped around the blue beam of divine power.
"Since the Ocean Goddess has come looking for trouble, I definitely have to collect some interest first …" Xi Wei nonchalantly pulled the beam of divine power out of the ground of his divine kingdom.
"You're not trying to absorb the Ocean Goddess's divine power, are you? I'd advise you to stop. She's much more superior than you, and you'd explode from the overload. "The Great Lion warned solemnly.
"I know, I know."
Xi Wei certainly wouldn't do something so suicidal. He simply took out the skull of Rotten Bones and stuffed the Ocean Goddess's divine power beam into it. "I just don't think something this good should be wasted."
The skull promptly shook without stopping, and with a series of crisp cracking sounds, cracks as fine as porcelain appeared over it.
