Chapter 106
Modern stockings are primarily made of synthetic fibers, making their production extremely difficult without the petroleum industry.
In the Douluo Continent timeline of the first game, the world is still in the agricultural civilization era, so the petroleum industry is naturally out of the question.
However, thanks to silkworm-like spirit beasts and textile workers whose martial spirit was needles, stockings, a type of silk fabric, still appeared in the Douluo Continent.
Furthermore, the manufacturing process is comparable to that of modern stockings.
Of course, their price was also extremely high, so much so that stockings became an exclusive garment for the nobility.
Today, Ao Xing specially sent the pirates to Hanhai City to buy the best quality stockings.
"Black, white, gradient."
"I never expected the people from Douluo Continent to be so creative."
Ao Xing instructed Shui Bing'er, Shui Yue'er, Zhu Zhuqing, and Zhu Zhuyun to put these on.
However, only Zhu Zhuqing was decisive and calm in putting it on, while the others looked at each other, seemingly at a loss.
They are not ordinary people; they have some knowledge of stockings and even wear them in their daily lives to accentuate their figures.
but,
This time, however, the dragon brought these stockings to them and wanted them to wear them.
Zhu Zhuqing had been repeatedly instructed and trained by Ao Xing some time ago.
She knew in her heart that if she didn't want to be punished by the dragon, then obeying his orders was the wise thing to do.
That's why she put it on without any hesitation.
Zhu Zhuyun frowned as she watched her sister's behavior and muttered "despicable."
"Lord Ao Xing, you must have heard what she said, right?"
"certainly."
"Please wait a moment, and do not show the slightest pity."
"That's inevitable."
Ao Xing's deep, gem-like eyes glanced at Zhu Zhuyun, and the latter felt a jolt in her soul, as if struck by lightning.
"Zhuqing, you just need to help me out in a bit."
"Okay, I'm very flexible."
……
While Ao Xing was punishing two pairs of sisters on Purple Pearl Island, outside Jialing Pass, the army of the Martial Soul Empire and the army of the Heaven Dou Empire engaged in a fierce battle.
The two armies were like two raging fires about to collide.
With the support of countless support-type Soul Masters, the army of the Spirit Empire gathered an awe-inspiring and imposing force.
Clad in armor, they radiated a dazzling light, like an unstoppable tornado.
The Heavenly Dou Empire's army, relying on the towering fortress behind them, was completely fearless.
They wore rare and precious armor, wielded uncommon weapons, and displayed immense power with limitless limits.
The warriors on both sides were like immortals and demons in the mortal world, wielding their weapons and unleashing all sorts of bizarre attacks with the help of various soul skills.
The intense, dynamic collisions and impacts create a powerful and resonant atmosphere with each violent jolt, making every battle a thrilling and powerful spectacle.
A vast and powerful atmosphere filled the air above the battlefield, and the continuous, resounding sounds seemed to resonate, shaking the entire world.
The great battle has only just begun.
Both sides mainly used ordinary soldiers and did not send out any Soul Master legions.
Even now, as large numbers of soldiers fall, this is only the prelude to the great battle, and things have not yet gotten on track.
War is so cruel!
……
On the other side...
The waters surrounding Poseidon Island are home to countless sea spirit beasts that thrive and multiply in this vast ocean region, living in harmony with the sea.
However, the peace was shattered by a sudden turn of events.
As a beam of light shone on Poseidon Island.
The sea spirit beasts suddenly became agitated and restless, as if driven by a mysterious force.
On days when storms raged on the sea, the sea spirit beasts launched an attack on the coastal city of Hanhai.
The first to set out were a group of ferocious swordfish sea spirit beasts.
They darted through the sea like arrows released from a bow, their speed dazzling.
The swordfish gleamed with a cold light, their sharp, long beaks seemingly capable of piercing anything. They burst from the water, flying with tremendous force towards the shores of Hanhai City.
As the swordfish sea spirits approached the shore, the human guards reacted immediately.
The archers drew their bows and aimed at the charging swordfish. However, the swordfish were too fast, and the arrows often only managed to splash water behind them.
The swordfish crashed violently against the city wall, making a loud noise.
The city wall trembled, as if it might collapse at any moment. Some swordfish were bounced back by the wall, but more continued their attack, frantically stabbing at the wall with their long snouts, trying to create a breach.
At the same time, a group of enormous octopus sea spirit beasts appeared on the sea surface.
These octopuses had tentacles tens of meters long, covered with suckers, and looked terrifying. The octopuses slowly approached the shore, their tentacles lashing against the city walls like giant whips.
Each lash caused the city wall to shake violently.
The soldiers on the city wall were shaken and knocked off their feet by the powerful force.
Some soldiers tried to stab the octopus's tentacles with spears, but the tentacles were too agile and easily dodged the attacks, instead grabbing the soldiers and throwing them into the sea.
As the battle progressed, even more terrifying sea spirit beasts appeared.
A gigantic shark-like sea spirit beast swam out from the depths of the sea. Its body was as large as a small mountain, exuding a chilling aura.
The shark-like sea spirit beast opened its blood-red maw, revealing sharp teeth, and charged towards the city wall.
Its impact was so great that it directly collapsed a section of the city wall.
The soldiers stared in terror at the enormous creature and fled in panic. But the shark-like sea spirit beast did not spare them; it rampaged through the city, destroying everything in its path.
The Sea Soul Masters finally gathered, attempting to stop the Sea Soul Beasts' attack. Various Soul Skills flew towards the Sea Soul Beasts. However...
However, the sea spirit beasts also have their own defensive methods.
Some sea spirit beasts emitted a mysterious light, which resisted the magical attacks.
But it was at this critical moment.
A Soul Master wielding a giant sword stepped forward.
He wielded the longsword in his hand with a blank expression.
The sharp blade then slashed out!
Each sword strike contains immense power.
He kept attacking the shark-like sea spirit beast.
Blood mist filled the sky.
But this seemed to ignite the fighting spirit of the sea spirit beasts.
They were not to be outdone, and fought back with their huge tails and sharp teeth.
Meanwhile, other human warriors and soul masters were also struggling to resist the sea soul beasts' attack.
They formed lines of defense, protecting their city with their lives.
However, there are simply too many sea spirit beasts, and more and more powerful sea spirit beasts are constantly emerging.
The city of Hanhai is facing an unprecedented crisis.
Just when people were feeling hopeless, a mysterious light suddenly appeared in the sky.
An elderly man with green hair appeared before the crowd.
The old man exuded a powerful aura, and he frowned slightly as he watched the sea spirit beasts attack.
The old man stretched out his hands and muttered incantations.
A dark green soul force emanated from his hand, enveloping the beach on the edge of the city.
The sea spirit beasts were blocked by this force and could not advance even half a step. Moreover, before long, all of them flipped over and floated on the sea surface.
And the ocean was also dyed dark green.
"What on earth is going on? Why are the sea spirit beasts suddenly launching beast tides for no apparent reason?"
"This is the fifth time this month, isn't it?"
Sword Douluo looked at Poison Douluo.
He had to admit that even though his strength far surpassed that of Poison Douluo, in such a large-scale battle, his killing efficiency was still far too low compared to Poison Douluo.
"Recently, the Douluo Continent has become increasingly turbulent."
"A war is raging on land, and now even the sea spirit beasts are starting to cause trouble."
……
In the mysterious void outside Douluo Star, clouds and mist swirl, and rosy light shines everywhere.
This is the realm of the gods, commonly known as the divine realm.
Poseidon, the god of the sea, and Asura, the god of hell, floated silently in this mysterious space. Their figures were majestic and awe-inspiring, exuding a powerful divine aura.
The sea god is clad in blue divine armor, his trident gleaming with a mysterious light, his eyes as deep as the ocean, seemingly containing endless wisdom and power.
The Asura God was clad in blood-red armor, wielding the Asura Demon Sword, and exuding a chilling aura of slaughter.
"God of Asura, the situation on the Douluo Continent is changing rapidly, and the conflict between humans and soul beasts is intensifying. As gods, we cannot stand idly by." Poseidon, the God of the Sea, broke the silence first, his voice steady and powerful.
The God of Asura nodded slightly, a sharp glint in his eyes: "Indeed, God of the Sea. We must take action to guide the Douluo Continent in the right direction."
The Sea God frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and then said, "I have observed that some human forces on the Douluo Continent are too greedy. In pursuit of power, they have recklessly hunted and killed spirit beasts, disrupting the ecological balance. The spirit beasts are also constantly resisting, and the situation is becoming increasingly tense. We need to find a balance point so that humans and spirit beasts can coexist harmoniously."
The God of Asura said coldly, "Hmph, those greedy humans certainly deserve to be punished. But the soul beasts can't be too unruly either, after all, humans are ultimately the dominant force in Douluo Continent. We can use some methods to make both sides realize each other's importance."
A glint flashed in Poseidon's eyes: "You mean...?"
The Asura God's lips curled slightly upward, revealing a mysterious smile: "We can give some humans and soul beasts special tests at the appropriate time, so that they can learn to cooperate and unite in adversity. Only by experiencing hardship will they learn to cherish peace."
Poseidon nodded: "That's a good idea. But how do we choose suitable candidates to test?"
After a moment of contemplation, the God of Asura said, "We can select humans and soul beasts with potential and a sense of justice. For example, some exceptionally talented soul masters and powerful soul beast kings. Let them meet in a specific environment and face challenges together."
Poseidon nodded slightly: "Alright, let's do it that way. However, we must also be careful not to make the test too difficult, otherwise it might backfire."
The Asura God laughed and said, "Don't worry, Sea God. I know what I'm doing. We can give them some hints and help during the trial, so they can gradually find a way to solve the problem."
The two deities continued to discuss the specific plans, their voices echoing in the void, filled with mysterious power.
"We can also use the power of the gods to influence the situation on the Douluo Continent. For example, we can appear at crucial moments to reward those who bravely face challenges, thus encouraging more people to join the ranks of those maintaining peace," the Sea God said.
The God of Asura agreed: "That's right. We must let the people of Douluo Continent know that the gods have always been watching over them. As long as they strive for justice and peace, they will receive the gods' favor."
As the discussions progressed, the two deities' plan gradually became more complete.
……
"Damn it, Poseidon actually pulled this kind of trick!"
Although Ao Xing was unaware of the conspiracy between the Sea God and the Asura God in the God Realm, he was aware of the Sea Soul Beasts' frenzied attack on the land.
After a moment's thought, he understood the sea god's purpose.
"This guy wants to sacrifice the sea spirit beast in exchange for the power of human faith."
"After all, the Sea God has been away from Douluo Continent for far too long."
"Although the Sea Soul Masters still worship the Sea God, their faith is no longer as strong as it was when he became a god."
"That son of a bitch, he was probably punished by the gods for descending to the mortal realm last time, so he deliberately sent sea spirit beasts to attack human cities, causing massive casualties among ordinary civilians, so that people would start worshipping him again and obtain faith power!"
"That's really cunning!"
"Never mind, let's help Xiaoxue get her ninth spirit ring first."
……
In the darkest part of the ocean, sunlight cannot penetrate the thick seawater, and a suffocating atmosphere pervades the surroundings.
In the darkness, a pair of enormous red eyes slowly opened, their light like two blazing flames, instantly illuminating the surrounding sea.
The massive body of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King lies quietly on the seabed, resembling a majestic mountain.
From a distance, only a blurry, enormous outline can be seen, like a piece of land rising from the ocean. Its length is immeasurable, roughly estimated to be several hundred meters long, and its height is even more astonishing, as if it could pierce the sky.
The Deep Sea Demon Whale King's skin was a deep dark blue, covered with mysterious patterns that resembled ancient magical runes, radiating powerful energy. Its body surface occasionally shimmered with a faint light, like stars twinkling in the deep sea.
Only when you get close to the Deep Sea Demon Whale King can you truly feel its suffocating sense of oppression.
Its head was enormous and ferocious, covered with sharp fangs, each one like a giant stone pillar, gleaming with a cold light. Its eyes were like two huge blood-red lanterns, revealing endless majesty and cruelty.
Its back is high and convex, resembling a continuous mountain range. Sharp bone spurs grow on it, pointing towards the sky like swords. Its belly is a smooth, dark blue surface, occasionally shimmering with mysterious light.
The Deep Sea Demon Whale King's tail was enormous, like a vast, dark cloud. It was covered with hard scales, each as large as a house!
