Re:Zero - Jobless Reincarnation: Succubus Sword God? I don't recognize it!

Chapter 399: Clearing the fog, the so-called game

As an important town in the Abyssal Sea, R'lyeh, the "Tailbone Prison", is like a confinement island, surrounded by the Abyssal Sea on three sides.

Of course, for humans, the reason why Shutter Island is so isolated is because the "sea" is a natural barrier that blocks any possibility of prisoners escaping from prison by chance.

But for the murloc prisoners, the indestructible nature of the bone prison, coupled with the Poseidon Pearls and Poseidon Spell magic created by Leviathan in imitation of the divine jade, made it impossible to escape from the prison itself.

Therefore, the "Yuanhai", which is rich in nutrients and mixed with the corpses of ancestors who are very nutritious, is naturally not intended to prevent prisoners from escaping.

Then why did the Ortpus choose to settle in R'lyeh?
Strategic significance - it is surrounded by the sea on three sides, is a remote borderland, and fish are scarce.

It is truly a gift from God. Here, even large sea fish and sea beasts have ridiculously big appetites and will not worry about eating up all the food beneath them.

There is absolutely no need to restrict people from eating and drinking as much as they want for the sustainable development of the "Abyss" like Arkham did.

Therefore, even though the sea people's reproduction capacity is not strong and the number of soldiers and sea beasts here is small, their overall quality is still terrifyingly strong.

Alan also found it scary.

Time goes back to the past, and the sight falls on the present in front of him.

Under the dim light of mycelium.

He looked at the one-meter-square "feeding port" above his head.

Mycelium-like spots of light flickered at the edge of the cave entrance, as if some deep-sea creature was gnawing at the light source. Putrid green mud, mixed with fluorescent oil, poured down, expanding into translucent gelatinous masses as it fell. A fish skull that had not yet completely liquefied was stuck at the edge of the cave entrance, and blue-purple slurry was oozing out of its empty eye sockets.

The gelatinous substances stuck to the rock walls are not dead things. They are shaken by the flowing mud every few seconds.

Alan's stomach churned when he saw this.

Is this the feeding port?
This is clearly swill!
"Do you usually eat this?" Alan looked at Cole beside him.

The latter stared at the 'feeding holes' which looked like gelatin on the surface but were actually transparent attachments of Leviathan's corpse oil, and swallowed his saliva.

"I don't eat it."

The octopus stared with wide eyes, fascinated, without even turning his head, interpreting simultaneously.

"I don't eat it!"

Alan:.
Then I heard Cole lower his head and seriously suppress his appetite, then turned to Alan and said.

"After learning that the end of the world was coming, I stopped eating these things and forced myself to eat some food that only humans on the island would eat. Over the years, other than this 'Sea God Firefly', other foods no longer interest me!"

Allen: Poseidon Liuying, you guys are really good at naming corpse oil. It's really hilarious.
".The end of the world will come? I just heard you talk about the end of the world theory. It seems that you proposed it? What end of the world?"

Cole looked serious and replied:
“The Lord God has sent down an oracle. He said that in the distant future, the world will suffer a great disaster, and it will start from the bottom of the sea. The sea people will bear the brunt of it. Then, after a short period of a thousand years, the entire human world will be devastated. In the end, no life will survive.

Therefore, the plan to return to land is imperative. This is also the reason why I have been letting my subjects adapt to the amphibious state in the body of Lord Poseidon.

I don't want the sea people entrusted to me by Lord Leviathan to be the first group to disappear from the world.

Even if we are doomed, we must survive until the last moment, even if the price is to rely on the current God."

After saying this, Alan fell silent.

You are 'betraying your teacher and destroying your ancestors', but you still have a sense of responsibility?
Moreover, this theory of doomsday sounds a bit familiar. Hmm, in the past life, charlatans usually fooled people in this way.

He glanced at Cole's expression, which did not seem to be joking at all, and roughly judged that this idiot had been fooled by Laplace.

From this perspective, the Poseidon Cult is indeed a cult in the "Abyss Sea".

There's nothing wrong with others being against you.

"If Lord Poseidon asks you to eat humans, will you do it?"

Cole blinked, stared at Alan's face, and swallowed again.

"Sea beasts eat it, but I won't!"

Alan had a blank expression on his face when he heard this, and said after a moment.

"Okay, let's go out now." Alan looked at the strange-shaped vents above his head, was silent for a moment, and then said, "Now, do you need me to climb up along this waterway?"

"Of course not! No need to bother you, I can do it myself!"

"Varied?"

As soon as the words fell, Cole was seen swinging his tail, slapping the ground, and looking up and down at Allen's waist.

The latter's eyebrows jumped. "What are you doing?"

With a swish, the fish's tail flicked and wrapped around Alan.

But it did not touch Alan's skin at all.

There was a ten-centimeter-thick layer of flow mystery shield between the fish tail scales and his body.

"I'll swim you out, it'll be faster this way!"

After saying that, without caring about Alan's reaction, she just swung!
With a bang, it carried Alan's body and rushed into the cave behind the mud waterfall sloping down above his head.

Alan immediately took advantage of the fighting spirit around his body and formed an air pressure shield, leaving himself enough air to breathe, and went upstream as Cole's body swayed.

The waterway was winding and there was not even any light. The water was rushing wildly, shattering Alan's sensory feedback. Alan felt like he was winding in the dark hole like a snake, as if he was moving in the intestines of Leviathan.

Cole was very fast, but even so, he finally struggled out of the mud with a thud after Allen counted to 2103.

In an instant, Alan used the flow of sensation to shake off the mud and water on his body.

The wind is coming.

The strong smell of tide brought Alan back to the feeling in his precognitive dream that he was on the dock of an abandoned fishing village.

Then, Alan saw the sky.

Endless green stars twinkled, and in the blink of an eye, it turned out to be a sky made up of densely packed magic-absorbing stones.

The sky was like a huge bowl, casting the sunless skylight from all directions, like a hazy aurora.

At this moment, Alan saw a black sphere hanging upside down from the sky in the distant horizon, like a fist-sized tumor hanging under a black nerve.

In just a moment, Alan had an inspiration.

In the precognitive dream, the source of the huge mountain that I saw was clear.

That was the nerve on the inner wall of Leviathan's spine that was pulled down, and the 'ground' where he was at the time was the black meat ball hanging above the sky.

This is the illusion created by the absurd perspective in the dream.

Then the facts became clear.

——Laplace, he hollowed out the heart of Leviathan, the highest part of the body and the vital point of the opponent, and made a dragon relic.

If the "Yuan Hai" is really a ship, that would be the captain's room.

But it was in the sky, no wonder it had to go through Arkham's transfer magic circle to get up there. Thinking of this, Alan quickly looked down.

It was a vast ocean of mud, and a Gobi-like ground could only be seen from a long distance away. There were many gathering places that looked like mermaids, piled up in the sight, and as they went away, they looked like ant nests when viewed from above.

Arkham was still out of sight.

The tail of Leviathan is actually the higher "plateau" of this "deep sea".

At this time, Cole's voice came from the side, "He's out! It took a long time to find him! This is a good location, we won't be discovered!"

Turn your head.

The wind blew in his face, and in front of him was a pile of bone spurs "thorns" that protruded from the seabed, blocking his vision.

Alan turned his head and peeked through the gap, narrowing his eyes unconsciously.

The muddy sea surface was blown up by the sea breeze into sticky waves. About one kilometer away, huge bone spurs kept sticking out from the sea surface, forming steep peaks.

The green skylight cast a bleak glow on the white bones of the peaks.

Layele—it was indeed a town.

If the twisted spirals of coral spires clinging to the boney peaks could be called buildings, and the jagged bone spurs and nerve-spreading traces of the Leviathan could be called streets.

Between the buildings and streets, groups of black shadows are swimming in a way that violates fluid mechanics.

With Alan's water god vision, even at such a distance, he can still see clearly:

A six-legged sea beast covered in armor, with arm-like tentacles dangling from its mouth;

The translucent jellyfish swarm wildly waved their hideous coral-like weapons;
Enlarged versions of fish of various shapes, with sharp teeth and beaks, and exposed bones with attacking features;
Also, there were those chariot-shaped heavy cavalrymen with round heads and hard-looking skulls that he had seen on the sea.

The summoning of Leviathan came from their mouths.

It should be the elite Layele who practice both magic and martial arts.

Alan withdrew his gaze from the patrol soldiers of R'lyeh in the Tailbone Prison and looked around.

The position where he and Cole were located formed a blind spot that blocked their view and provided a perfect hiding place.

Cole looked somewhat excited.

"Look, the place in the middle of Layele where the soldiers are most densely packed is the gate to the bone prison. It's very dangerous to come out from there. Take a breath. I have to dive into the sea again in a while and then swim out. It will be safe downstream."

Alan looked towards R'lyeh again, and sure enough, he saw a building similar to an altar in the center guarded by many Sea Fish soldiers.

It looked like that was the entrance to the prison.

Eyes twinkling.

At the same time, smoke and dust appeared in front of him.

'Incarnation Manual, Clairvoyance Location Search, Lokishi.'

Should not.

Alan shook his head.

"Sure enough, the skylight of the magic-absorbing stone is the fundamental reason for blocking the 'sight'. It is related to the chaotic magic of the sea storm. Oh, no, to be precise, the strange storm on the sea surface of the archipelago at that time was related to the Leviathan under the sea. You are the reason for the formation of the mosaic maze.

After that, the "Dead Ghost Secret Sword" became the bottom boss of the maze and was the reason why the maze existed. "

Cole glanced at Allen sideways, pinching the little octopus on his chest with both hands. For some reason, he seemed to be in a good mood and said with a grin.

"Yes, the connection between the "Dead Ghost Secret Sword" and Leviathan is maintained by the magic-absorbing stone sword from the "Abyss" in its hand. The magic of the sea people can continuously expand the influence."

Alan turned and looked directly at her.

Cole met Allen's gaze, took out the little octopus from his chest, and waited for Allen to continue speaking in response to his compliment, with a look of faint satisfaction.

——Although the "Secret Sword of the Undead" is gone, the moving, living person in front of her obviously gives her more expectations. This is not an undead ghost, it can reproduce offspring!

Then I heard the other party say this.

"Is the Poseidon Pearl with you or with the octopus?"

Cole was stunned for a moment, then quickly showed a surprised expression and looked at Allen.

"What are you talking about? The Sea God Pearl is of course guarding there, how could it be on us? What is your question? It's so strange. Look, I clearly have it on me..."

Alan interrupted her with a nod, "It looks like it's at the octopus."

Cole's expression was stiff. "What are you talking about?"

Alan looked out at the soldiers surrounding the Layele Central Prison.

“If everything goes according to Octopus’s original plan, I will definitely be able to get the Sea God Pearl in the hands of the so-called guard, but you will never let me out of the cell through the main door.

So the guard can only have a fake in his hand, which is the most basic insurance.

Even if we take a step back and the information gap is not good, if it really comes to this, you can still make up countless lies to cover it up. Otherwise, as long as the Sea God Pearl is in my hands, things will be out of your control. If I really insist on leaving through the main gate of the Bone Prison, you will have no room for mediation. "

Cole said quickly, "How... How is it possible? Why should we do this? Alan, you may be overthinking."

"Why? Don't you know better than I do, Cole?"

Cole's words were interrupted by Allen, but she didn't know what to say. The golden dragon pupils in her eyes kept shrinking and expanding.

In her eyes, Alan raised his hand and pointed at the door of Layele's cell.

"If I leave from there, at least one third of the Layelehai soldiers we have seen so far will die. Driving away the wolves and swallowing the tigers is a good method, but there is a prerequisite."

Alan glanced at Cole's face.

"That is, don't let the wolf bite you."

"you you."

"So far, you have done a good job. The octopus's truth accounts for 90% of the truth, and it uses the truth to cover up the lies. It is precisely because of this that the less than 10% of the lies can look like the truth.

I wanted to use a more stable, civilized, quick and efficient way to expose this clumsy farce you designed, but this canopy is too much of a hindrance, and I always feel uncomfortable. "

Alan raised his palm and placed it flat in front of Cole's eyes as they widened.

"The price you paid for fooling me and deceiving me is so small, even if I wanted to give you some dignity if you didn't take advantage of your coma to kill me.

It's still hard to ensure that you won't continue to take advantage of me in the future.

So, Cole, tell me.

How many times can your healing ability support you to come back to life?"
