Chapter 372 The History of the Sea
As the teleportation light beneath Chen Feng's feet dissipated, a salty sea breeze, carrying a faint smell of blood, immediately swept over him.
He stood on a dark volcanic rock beach, the sand beneath his feet icy cold.
The turbulent sea ahead had an eerie pale gray color, and the sky was covered by thick, leaden-gray clouds. Lightning bolts constantly flashed through the clouds, but not a single ray of sunlight could penetrate.
There seemed to be a cold and oppressive divine pressure in the air, which seemed to be the aura of the Augustus gods.
"Is this the sea level?" Chen Feng frowned.
This was the first time Chen Feng had ever seen a plane ruled by the gods.
He originally thought that under the rule of those gods, the sea surface should be a vibrant world full of maritime charm.
But to my surprise, it turned out to be a scene fraught with danger.
"Master, you've arrived."
A male voice sounded from behind.
Chen Feng quickly turned around and saw that the Protoss Hysin was standing on a reef not far away.
At this moment, he was still dressed in rags, with his wet, long golden hair hanging down his face.
However, his overall appearance was indeed much more attractive than that of an ordinary person, but his eyes still held a trace of sadness and hatred that was hard to conceal.
Hessing jumped off the reef, then strode to Chen Feng, knelt on one knee, and said with utmost respect, "Contractor Hessing welcomes Master."
"Helsing, there's no need for that. We are equal comrades, not masters and servants."
Hessing shook his head, his eyes resolute: "No, Master. You gave me a new life, and you gave me hope for revenge. In my heart, you will always be my master. My life will always belong to you."
"Furthermore, if Master needs it, I can make the entire sea surface available to you, as long as Master trusts me."
Chen Feng activated his Eye of Foresight, looking at the words spoken by the stubbornly loyal Haisin before him.
I can confirm that every word he said came from the bottom of his heart.
Chen Feng nodded and asked, "What exactly happened to you? Why were you already severely injured when I made the contract with you? And what's going on here?"
Hessing's eyes instantly turned cold. He turned his gaze to the endless sea in the distance, his voice filled with anger: "These are all the masterpieces of those Augustuss."
"Decades ago, the sea was blue, the sky was blue, the water was clear, and the sunlight could even reach the reefs below the shallow sea."
Hessing's voice was low and hoarse as he reached out and caught a few drops of cold rain falling from the clouds.
The rainwater turned into a wisp of pale blue vapor in his palm, disappearing in an instant.
"Until the fleet of the Augustus gods arrived."
Twenty-five years ago, the golden warship of the Augustus gods arrived in the skies above the sea.
The three Protoss warships, each ten thousand meters long, hovered above the clouds, their hulls adorned with sacred patterns that gleamed with a cold light, like the Sword of Damocles hanging over the entire world.
When the first divine cannon shot was fired from the warship's main gun, a Haitian city was instantly reduced to nothing.
The king of the Sea Kingdom immediately launched a counterattack. He sounded the horn of the sea god, summoned the legendary deep-sea behemoth, and led a million-strong sea army to attack the warships of the gods.
The waves surged, the beasts roared, and the entire ocean seemed to be fighting for their king.
However, all of this was in vain.
Those once invincible deep-sea behemoths were instantly blasted into pools of blood by the Divine Punishment Cannon. And the steel spears wielded by the sea warriors were utterly unable to penetrate the outer armor of the Protoss warships.
The war lasted only three days.
The last line of defense of the Sea Kingdom was breached.
The king also died on the steps of the temple of the sea god.
From that time onward, this beautiful world, once known as the "Azure Realm," was subjected to an extremely cruel colonial rule by the Augustan gods.
It was in this darkness that Hessing was born.
His mother, named Lia, was the daughter of a sea god priest in the Sea Kingdom.
She survived the fall of the capital and became a slave of the Augustan gods.
Hessing's father knew Leah and protected her from the massacre of the rebels.
Gradually, the two fell in love.
However, according to the laws of the Augustan gods, intermarriage between gods and other races was the greatest crime, and if discovered, the person would be stripped of their divine status and reduced to a slave.
Hesing's father carefully guarded this secret, allowing Leah to continue living as a slave and sending the now-grown Hesing into the Haitian army.
He thought that as long as they were careful enough, things could continue like this.
"However, fate never favors mortals..." Haisin sighed, and even the faint holy aura surrounding him became more violent.
"I fought desperately in the Haitian army to earn merit, just to secure a stable life, just to finally stand before my mother and free her from toiling day and night and suffering all kinds of bullying. I naively thought that although my father never acknowledged me as his son, he still held onto a sliver of old affection and would protect us."
"I fought on the battlefield, suppressed the rebellion of the sea tribe for the gods, and wiped out the ferocious beasts of the plane for them. I fought hundreds of battles, big and small, and my body was covered with scars. I climbed to the position of deputy commander of the Haitian army."
Hessing looked down at the dark, cold volcanic rock beneath his feet, his voice hoarse as if it had been rusted by seawater.
"However, my Augustian divine bloodline awakened more and more clearly, and the sudden surge in power could not escape the notice of the gods. So the chief priest of Augustus followed the clues and uncovered the secret between my parents."
"At that moment, all the cover-up, all the forbearance, all the wishful thinking, were completely shattered!"
Chen Feng knew very well that the gods did indeed have strict requirements for the purity of bloodlines, which was the fundamental way they maintained their own strength and the strength of their race.
Maintaining the purity of bloodlines is the same for gods in any plane, let alone powerful gods who are already capable of invading other planes.
Hearing this, Chen Feng looked at Haising with a complicated expression and asked, "So you want revenge?"
"I'd like to, but it has to be done step by step. However, if my master doesn't want to, I can postpone my revenge," Haising assured him confidently.
A smile appeared on Chen Feng's lips.
Although the man before him, Haising, was just like he had been in the past, was blinded by rage, he possessed great potential and talent, and his intelligence was not low either.
He might be a very good contractor.
"Alright, I'd like to hear about your revenge plan," Chen Feng said, nodding.
