Beast Taming, I transform into a divine beast of calamity.

In the deep sea.

The entire ship resembled a silent, steel behemoth amidst the dark trenches.

The concealment devices around the ship's hull were still in operation, with faint blue light patterns appearing and disappearing intermittently, distorting and deflecting sonar and heat source detectors from the outside world as much as possible.

Inside the ship's hull.

The Rubik's Cube Firefox stood in front of the main control platform, its tail swaying slightly.

On the transparent interface in front of her, rows of data scrolled by...

All the complex commands are constantly changing under her command.

Even with her computing power, taking over the operation of the entire giant ship for this period of time has put her under considerable pressure.

After reaching the deep sea and stabilizing.

Finally, she let out a soft breath and raised her hand to press the unlock button.

As several incubation chambers opened simultaneously, five silver-white figures slowly floated up.

Those are five Alloy Kings.

Their bodies are made almost entirely of high-density metal, with sharp edges and a steely sheen on the surface.

The core of its eye shimmered with a deep blue spiritual glow, like five supercomputing cores activating simultaneously.

As special beasts combining the attributes of steel and psychic, their greatest value lies not in direct combat, but in their brain's computational ability and their ability to perfectly take over mechanical, system, and platform modules.

Awakening.

The moment the Fiery Fox's voice fell, all five Alloy Kings simultaneously floated up.

The next second, their entire metallic surfaces lit up with layers of grid-like silver-white light paths, and their mental fluctuations quickly connected with the ship's main systems.

One interface after another opened automatically, and the main control platform, energy platform, navigation platform, weapon blocking module, and seabed detection module were all taken over by the five Alloy Kings.

The whole process was extremely fast.

In just a few breaths, the multi-threaded computing pressure that originally required Rubik's Cube Firefox to maintain was evenly distributed among the five Alloy Kings.

"Follow the route I just outlined, avoid areas with abnormal heat sources, and maintain silent mode."

After Firefox issued its final command, the five Alloy Kings simultaneously emitted low-frequency resonances, and then each sank into its corresponding system node to begin operating at high efficiency.

Seeing this, Rubik's Cube Firefox finally breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"Finally, I can catch my breath..."

She rubbed her temples, turned around, and walked down from the command center.

However, before she could truly relax, a sharp scream suddenly came from the other end of the corridor.

"impossible!"

That was the voice of the Emerald Dragon.

Fiery Fox's expression changed, and he immediately quickened his pace and rushed over.

The atmosphere in the lounge was noticeably heavy.

Emerald Dragon stood in front of the electronic screen, his hands on the table, his pupils slightly contracted, as if he had just seen something extremely outrageous.

The Deep Sea Witch sat to the side, her expression equally grim, though she appeared more restrained than the Emerald Dragon.

"What happened?"

The emerald dragon turned around abruptly, its voice still carrying the shock of not having calmed down.

"She just browsed through online materials from this era and discovered!"

"All three of our races are now classified as extinct beast tamers! To use them, we need to find ancient fossils to revive them!"

"What!?"

Rubik's Cube Firefox almost instinctively refuted this.

"How is that possible? In our home region of Atlantis, our three populations have always been quite numerous. Even if they weren't ubiquitous, they certainly wouldn't be extinct!"

"That's where the problem lies..."

"Atlantis has been gone for hundreds of years."

Fiery Fox froze on the spot, its tail stiffening for a moment.

"……disappear?"

"You mean...extinction?"

"no."

The Deep Sea Witch shook her head slightly, her voice growing increasingly somber.

"The entire region has disappeared from the world map."

It was only then that Rubik's Cube Firefox truly realized something was wrong.

The Deep Sea Witch didn't explain further, but instead raised her hand and fully unfolded the electronic screen.

A complete projection of a contemporary world map quickly appeared in front of the three of them.

The central area of ​​the map, which originally belonged to Atlantis, is now truly empty.

That continent, which they remembered as vast, ancient, and glorious, and which was once considered one of the world's central regions, is now just a wide expanse of sea on the map.

There are also large areas marked in red and gray as high-risk zones, like a huge wound left on the nautical charts of this era.

"This is impossible..."

Fiery Fox murmured, his eyes gradually darkening.

"How could such a vast continent simply vanish into thin air?"

"Even if the old organization did activate some kind of self-destruct weapon, it's impossible for them to sink the entire continent."

"Let alone one weapon, even if all the world's world-destroying weapons were thrown at us at once, we might not be able to flatten the main mountain range of Atlantis."

As she spoke, her tone became noticeably urgent.

But the Deep Sea Witch only gave a bitter smile.

"That's the official explanation."

"It is said that during the final stage of the campaign to wipe out the old organization, the Atlantis region encountered some kind of special self-destruct weapon, causing the entire continent to sink and affecting the surrounding seas as well."

"and."

The Deep Sea Witch pointed to the large area marked with danger on the map.

"The original Atlantis sea area still has a large-scale chaotic magnetic field and unexplained superimposed spatial phenomena.

"Many ships, beasts, and even aerial detection devices may lose contact or be disrupted by space once they get close."

The lounge was eerily quiet for a moment.

Atlantis is located in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, but they are currently in the deep sea of ​​the South Pacific Ocean.

The distance between them is more than ten thousand miles.

Even if we turn back immediately, it's still a distance that can't be reached in a short time.

Moreover, they are currently under intense surveillance and vigilance from the Beast Taming Alliance, making it impossible for the giant ship to recklessly traverse the world's oceans.

Firefox stared at the map, its expression constantly shifting.

Shock, disbelief, oppression, and frustration all eventually subsided.

"This isn't right..."

Something's very wrong.

Just then, the three humanoid beast tamers turned their heads almost simultaneously.

In a room not far away, Xia Yu, who had been adjusting his own magnetic field and energy balance, slowly opened his eyes.

He slowly stood up, his gaze seemingly piercing through the thick steel hull of the giant ship, looking directly into the darkness beyond the deep sea.

The next second, he spoke in a low voice.

Something is approaching.

In the darkness of the deep sea, a low and terrifying sound wave slowly spread out.

The sound wasn't harsh, but it carried a tremor that shook the seawater and steel, as if some enormous creature was roaring at the end of the trench.

The entire sea surged, the hull of the giant ship trembled slightly, and the surrounding water pressure and ocean currents instantly became turbulent.

A violent storm is brewing on the sea!
