Chapter 24 The birth of the sea giant!
Yang Xu couldn’t sit still when he thought about the horror of the sea giant.
If the sphinxes were said to be the overlord of the valley, the sea giant was the overlord of the sea, an actual mythical creature!
In front of the sea giant, a ferocious beast like the sphinxes was like a firefly. It was not even worth mentioning! The consequences would be unimaginable if the sea giants were to go on a rampage!
Yang Xu had only seen the sea giant once in the four and a half years he had been in the wilderness. However, it was that one meeting that had left him with an indelible
impression.
It was not something that could be killed by human strength was Yang Xu’s evaluation of the sea giant.
Even in modern society with advanced technology, the price to pay to deal with a mythical creature like the sea giant was probably unimaginable.
Yang Xu could not imagine what kind of great power was needed to destroy a terrifying
beast like the sea giant!
Conventional weapons were almost useless in
front of the sea giant.
Perhaps nuclear weapons?
However, the terrifying damage caused by nuclear weapons was the radiation that was difficult to deal with. The sea giants could merge into the vast ocean at any time and dive into the deep sea instantly. It was still unknown whether the damage caused by nuclear explosions could kill the sea giants.
“Your Majesty.”
While Yang Xu was deep in thought, a graceful and noble-looking merfolk walked over slowly.
She was much older than the average merfolk and lacked the youthful energy of a young girl. But she had the elegance and luxury of a mature woman.
She was dressed in a moon-white cheongsam with a high slit, which outlined her exquisite figure perfectly.
Just one look at that alluring curve made
one’s heart beat faster.
The visitor was called Bei Yao, one of the rare
tide watchers.
Tidewatchers were different from ordinary
merfolks. They were more sensitive to ocean tides and could predict ocean currents and weather changes three to seven days in advance.
Yang Xu turned around to look at Bei Yao, walking slowly towards him, and smiled gently.
Bei Yao was the weather master of the Great Xu nation. She was more sensitive to weather changes than weather forecasts, and her role in the development of the Great Xu nation couldn’t be ignored.
Because of Bei Yao’s weather prediction, the agriculture and fishing industry had not
suffered numerous losses.
Yang Xu was always very patient with the
heroes of the Great Xu nation.
“Still awake?” he asked with a concerned
smile.
Bei Yao came to Yang Xu’s side and sat down on the cold stone with her knees bent. Her movements were elegant. Her blue, gem-like eyes gazed at the vast, turbulent ocean, and the depths of her eyes were full of worry. “I sensed the anger from the depths of the ocean.” Bei Yao said.
Yang Xu furrowed his brows as he felt the pressure from the west sea. He had a bad
feeling.
“Sea Giants?” he asked.
Bei Yao sighed and gave an answer that Yang
Xu did not want to hear. She said heavily, “I’m afraid that only a terrifying existence like the sea giant can affect the vast ocean with its own emotions. I feel extreme anger as if something is challenging its dignity and invading its territory.”
Yang Xu’s pupils contracted, and his brows
furrowed.
Under the dim starlight, the vast ocean grew
deeper and deeper, as if it was a giant sleeping beast that made people revere it.
Usually, even sea giants or other mythical creatures will not appear. They had their territory and their own rules of action. The appearance of ordinary ferocious beasts in the ocean would never cause the sea giants to be furious. It was like how humans would not care about an ant or a rabbit running past
them.
A beast that could challenge the sea giant and make the sea giant feel angry must be very powerful and terrifying.
It was not good news that mythical beasts
were fighting.
Of course, it wasn’t bad news for the Great Xu nation, located in the continent’s center. However, the sea route might become very
dangerous for an extended period, so he had to be more careful.
Compared to the dangers he might encounter
in the future, Yang Xu was curious about what kind of giant beast could challenge one of the overlords of the sea, the sea giant!
“Hiss…”
At this moment, a beast’s thunderous roar
came from the vast ocean.
No one knew where the roar came from, and
no one knew who the owner of the roar was. However, the thunderous roar and the oppressive feeling made people feel like they were about to die at any time.
Yang Xu’s eyes narrowed as he looked at the
deep ocean.
It was indeed the voice of the sea giant. It
seemed that the battle had already begun. In
fact, it was not the start of the battle but the
end. At the entrance of the sea god kingdom,a giant figure as mighty as a mountain stood on the surface of the sea, like a giant from ancient myths!
It was a hundred meters tall!
Its upper body was in human form, bald, with
a sharp horn, and skin smooth like flowing
seawater.
The lower half of its body was a deep blue
vortex that seemed to be able to swallow the
world.
The creature stood on the surface of the sea,
and the originally calm and gentle sea became extremely turbulent. The waves got higher and higher, like boiling water.
The sea giant waved his hand, and a hundred-meter-tall wave appeared on the sea’s surface, drowning and swallowing a hundred-meter-long ship in an instant. The pressure broke the massive ship in the
middle, turning it into a ball of bright fireworks and sinking into the deep and turbulent sea.
In the blink of an eye, two of the three hundred-meter-long ships had sunk, yet nothing happened to the last ship. Everyone was dumbfounded as they looked at the sea giant who overturned the 100-meter-long ship. Their mood was just
like the sea at this moment, with turbulent waves and huge waves.
It was the sea god! Not long ago, Liu Xian’s third uncle had
brought thirty ships of various sizes to the gates of the sea god’s kingdom. Because there were even more ships following this time, it took less than ten minutes to find the location of the entrance. After some discussion, they decided it was easier for the small boat to
pass through the door, so the small boat went
first. The big ship would adjust its direction and speed later.
Everything was going smoothly at the
beginning. In a short moment, there were
already a dozen ships less than a hundred meters long entering the sea god’s kingdom. Their appearance did not attract the attention
of the sea giants. However, when the ship that was more than a
hundred meters long began to sail into the sea god’s kingdom, the situation changed. The sea giants became alert because of the appearance of the ship.
After the third 100-meter ship sailed in, the sea giant appeared.
The sea giant wanted to teach them a lesson for challenging its dignity and entering its territory. It was to let them understand who the master of this sea was.
And then, the current scene happened. The three 100-meter-long ships were like children’s toys, unable to resist the terrifying power of the sea giant.
The sea giant stretched out its arm, and a big dark blue hand fell like a collapsing mountain, pressing heavily on the bow of the
third 100-meter ship.
“BOOM!”
The ship was smashed to pieces by the sea giant almost without any resistance. Seawater gushed in crazily, and the huge ship sank. After destroying three 100-meter ships that trespassed into its territory, the sea giant raised his head and let out a victorious cry, which echoed like thunder in the vast West
Sea. The sea giant then leaped and disappeared into the deep ocean. All that was left was a mess on the sea, a dozen small
boats that didn’t know whether to advance or
retreat. Among them, Liu Xian had the most complicated feelings.
He supported himself with the railing and
looked at the battle inside the door. His legs were trembling, and he could not stand steadily.
At this moment, he was extremely glad that
he had listened to his third uncle’s words and had not foolishly charged into that mysterious and dangerous sea area. Otherwise, no one could predict what would happen. Thinking of the sea giant’s brutal and domineering figure, Liu Xian felt dizzy. He
never wanted to come back here again. But his third uncle did not agree. Liu Xian looked at the video that he had just
recorded with cold sweat all over his head. The emotions in his eyes were extremely complicated. There was fear of the sea giant and hope and fanaticism for the future.
Liu Xian’s third uncle knew that he was going to be famous.
This video could prove the existence of the sea
god’s kingdom, and, even more so, prove the value of the sea god’s kingdom.
This lost ocean might really be the kingdom
of the gods! There were countless priceless treasures inside!
At this moment, the ship owners, who were
already scared out of their wits, were not in the mood to consider whether there were any treasures. Most of them were just workers. The ship was the boss’s, but their lives belong
to them. Even if they had found treasures,
they had to be alive to use them. All the ships that followed Liu Xian’s third
uncle here, big and small, were withdrawn. Because of the appearance of the sea giant, no one dared to stay there for fear that the sea
giant would jump out of the door and start a
massacre.
Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.
It wasn’t just the outside of the door that was
in an
uproar. The whole world was in a state of panic and shock because of the video that Liu Xian’s third uncle had brought back.
It wasn’t calm inside the gate either. The sea giant’s roar represented a declaration
of victory, and it caused the overlords to
respond fiercely. It made all the beasts shiver, and the world fell silent.
A firebird with wings that could cover the sky
flew out of the boiling lava, bringing boundless flames that illuminated the sky and
the earth.
Dragons circled in the sky, setting off a
storm.
A nine-headed snake crawled out of the swamp, and its nine mountain-like heads let
out a roar that tore through the clouds as if
declaring its supremacy.
Too many overlords responded. That night, it was especially lively, yet Yang
Xu was sleeping soundly not affected at all
because he was already used to such a scene. It was just the travelers that suffered. Such an
unexpected change made them fully aware of
the dangers of this world.
