Song Feiyao had come from Xiayu. She was someone he had stumbled into by chance. It was almost impossible for her to be a puppet of the Sea God's Prophet.
After all, the puppets of the Sea God would try their best to infiltrate the human organizations. Only the military, the government, and the Magic Association could provide them with the information they needed.
If they had the help of the Sea God, they would have a better chance of winning the trip to the Pacific Ocean.
Mofan nodded. They did not have much time to prepare, nor did they have time to wait for Mubai and Zhao Manyan to arrive. It was better for them to depart as soon as possible.
"Mofan, bring this with you."
Tangyue caught up to Mofan as he was about to jump onto the Sea God's back. She handed a small orb to Mofan.
"A Totem Orb?" Mofan blurted out in surprise.
"Mm, the big guy is so huge. It's not convenient for him to move around," Tangyue said.
The Totem Orb was the special orb that Tangyue had taken away from the Black Totem Snake during his ecdysis. The Black Totem Snake could turn into a cloud of snakes and enter the orb.
Little Moon Moth Phoenix could turn into a tiny Moon Elf and stand on Mofan's shoulder. It was quite convenient to bring her along. If the Black Totem Snake did not enter the orb, he would surely cause a huge commotion wherever he went.
"Big guy, let's go by air. The sea monsters might notice us if we move in the water," Mofan said to the Black Totem Snake.
After recalling the Black Totem Snake into the Totem Orb, Mofan and Song Feiyao boarded the Sea God and headed to Hawaii.
The Sea God's speed was fairly quick. If it weren't for the injuries inflicted by the lightning chains, Mofan's Black Dragon Wings would struggle to catch up with it.
In terms of endurance, a creature like the Gyrfalcon God could easily cross the Pacific Ocean in one go.
…
The Sea God's flying pattern was quite unique.
It would always try its best to fly as high as possible in the beginning, away from the ground and sea level as much as possible. When the biting cold air began to affect its movement, it would adopt a slow gliding method.
This slow descent was from a high altitude to the sea level bit by bit. By the time they could see the sea level again, they had already flown hundreds of kilometers.
This process repeated over and over again. Every time it rose to the top of the sky and slid down to sea level, it was a long journey.
If it was a short distance flight, this method was indeed not very fast. However, it was much faster to fly from the east coast all the way to the middle of the Pacific Ocean. After all, any creature that flew such a long distance had to consider the issue of physical strength.
…
Hawaii.
Mofan had been to Hawaii once. It used to be a romantic vacation island, but it was later used as a military base to investigate and fend off the sea monsters. It was eventually abandoned.
It was not that the United States and the Sacred Hall of Liberty did not want to take responsibility for Hawaii, but the fact was that the isolated island in the Pacific Ocean was constantly being trampled by the sea monsters and sea monsters. Even if they had sent the most elite Magicians in the United States to defend the island, there would only be one outcome: either the whole army would be wiped out, or they would have to withdraw from the island.
That being said, the Sacred Hall of Liberty was not willing to give up on their precious island.
Since the army was no longer able to defend the island, they would occasionally send more agile squads to investigate and collect information.
The powerful sea monsters were mostly from the middle of the Pacific Ocean, and Hawaii was the best place to investigate the Sea Gods. If they lost the island, it would be even more difficult for them to learn more about the sea monsters and the Sea Gods.
When Mofan and Song Feiyao arrived at Hawaii, something rather surprising happened.
Logically speaking, the sea monsters would not allow such an island to exist. They would even do everything they could to destroy the island, so that the humans would lose this strategic fortress in the Pacific Ocean.
However, when they arrived at Hawaii, Mofan discovered that not only did the island not collapse or sink, it was even larger than the original island. Even the mountains seemed to be more than twice as tall as before.
"What's going on? Did the sea level here drop?" Mofan was very puzzled.
Song Feiyao glanced at Mofan. Mofan could feel the strange look in her eyes. He could not help but touch his nose. Was his sentence retarded?
"The island floated up," Song Feiyao said.
Mofan's sentence was indeed retarded. The sea level was called sea level because it would not easily fall or rise. Otherwise, how could the sea level be used as the base when the sea level was zero? The four oceans were connected, and the sea water flowed. The only factor that could make the sea level rise was the glaciers in the extreme south and the extreme north.
On land, the tide rose and fell. Some islands would look a lot bigger than usual for a period of time. Most of the time, it was because the tide had receded, revealing the area that was originally submerged in the sea.
However, even if it was a phenomenon of receding tide, the exposed area of Hawaii was too much.
It felt like it was five or six times bigger than before. Even the tallest mountain seemed to be a lot higher than the sea level.
"Can the island grow taller?" Mofan asked.
"I remember that our ancestors mentioned that some people used a kind of restriction to seal the island under the sea in order to avoid disputes. The people on the island lived as usual, and the sea water above their heads would not pour into the island. Xiayu Island was not discovered in the past because of this method, "Song Feiyao said.
"That's really mysterious," Mofan said.
"Another method is to make the sea mountain arch up and break away from the sea surface, becoming an even bigger island. There are many cracks, rocks, and a part of lava on the edge of this Hawaii island. If nothing unexpected happened, the entire bottom of the island was squeezed by some kind of powerful force, and was pulled up. "Song Feiyao's understanding of islands was deeper than Mofan's.
If all the sea water in the ocean was removed, then the ocean would actually be an incomparably huge basin. There would also be some tall mountains in the basin. As long as the altitude of these tall mountains was higher than the sea level, they would become islands.
If the sea water flooded the entire world, and the sea level reached the original altitude of 8000 meters, then Mount Everest and other peaks above 8000 meters in the ocean of Earth would become islands.
Islands were mountains in the ocean that were higher than the sea level. Generally speaking, it would require the tectonic movements of the earth to show obvious changes, and it would take a very long time.
