Genshin Impact, starting from becoming the God of the Ocean

Su Zhe's heart sank. This was indeed unexpected, but the die was cast, and he had no choice but to fight.

He held the sea snake tightly, refusing to let go no matter how strong it was.

"Let's see who dies first, you or me!"

The two giant beasts were locked in a fierce battle underwater, constantly tumbling and rolling, causing the sea surface to rise and fall violently.

Blood red and black stained the seawater, and a fishy stench permeated the air. The power of the demon god's remnants began to spread, corroding the surroundings.

The Thousand Rock Army soldiers stared at the underwater world with suspicion and disbelief. They could see that the sea serpent that had been stirring up waves was covered in blood, and they could hear the roars of the two sea beasts, which were awe-inspiring.

Generally speaking, in this situation, choosing to sit back and reap the benefits is the best option.

They were naturally happy to see the sea monsters killing each other, but the Thousand Rock Army captain frowned and suddenly shouted, "Prepare to fire!"

His subordinates were all taken aback.

"Captain, wouldn't it be better to let them fight it out themselves now? Then we can..."

"That sea serpent is too powerful; it's no match for it."

"That's what Captain Chiiwa said."

He could tell that the sea serpent had been injured earlier, but it was still very powerful, and the baby whale was no match for it.

If the baby whale fails, the sea snakes will attack again, and in this ferocious state, they will also suffer.

He also recognized that the baby whale looked similar to the one the old fisherman had described. If his intervention earlier was a fluke that saved him, then considering the old fisherman's and his grandson's experiences, perhaps the baby whale truly harbored goodwill towards humans.

Without time to think too much, the commander of the Chiiwa army ordered his men to prepare the ballistae, and then rushed off the ship himself.

Golden elemental power surrounded him, transforming into a protective force. With a thrust and a flick of his spear, the elemental power exploded in the water, causing water columns to shoot skyward with a thunderous roar.

Enraged, the sea serpent opened its massive jaws and spewed out a jet of deep blue energy, but was stopped by the captain of the Thousand Rock Army. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Su Zhe rushed towards the water, carrying him and the sea serpent into the air.

"emission!"

At a command.

The ballistae fired in succession, bombarding the sea serpent. The sea beast finally could not maintain its strength and loosened its bindings. After being freed, Su Zhe fell into the sea.

The severely injured sea serpent roared to the sky, stirring up waves as it stood upright on the water's surface, a huge, deep black ball of light condensing in its mouth!

The commander of the Chiyan Army's expression changed drastically: "Retreat immediately!"

This sphere of light was formed from a dense concentration of divine and demonic power. Once it explodes, no one but him will survive!

Chapter 8 The Farmer and the Whale >>

Buzz buzz buzz~~

The orb of light emitted a dark glow as it flew into the air, about to explode. A smug look appeared in the sea serpent's fierce eyes.

However, a dark shadow suddenly blocked out all the light.

The enormous body leaped past, and the sea serpent stared in disbelief.

It saw that the baby whale, which it had almost bound to death, actually swallowed its attack whole!

The Chiyan Army was dumbfounded.

That thing is edible?

Of course not!

Boom! —

The ball of light exploded inside Su Zhe's body, and its powerful aftershocks spread out, causing a surge of energy to erupt from his body and create towering waves!

Swallow it!

Roar! ! !

The roar of the demon god resounded throughout the heavens and earth at this moment!

The power of devouring worked wildly within his body, forcibly absorbing the explosive force of the light sphere.

But ultimately, his strength was still too weak.

If he is powerful enough, he can be fearless of this level of power.

It can even easily devour it and transform it into its own power.

However, this is far from being possible right now. Although the ability to devour is extraordinary, it is not enough to counteract the ferocity generated by the explosion in an instant.

Boom boom boom!

Explosions rang out one after another.

Su Zhe's conscious strength gradually faded, he closed his eyes, and fell heavily into the sea.

"I... am such an idiot."

As he drifted into a deep sleep, this thought came to Su Zhe's mind.

are you crazy?

Maybe so. Maybe he went mad after he time-traveled.

Perhaps it was because he was troubled by loneliness for a long time, and lost his mind, that he did such a thing.

Swish!

Su Zhe's consciousness returned to a closed space.

All around him was cold darkness and silence, suppressed by an indestructible and powerful force. He could do nothing, and he didn't want to do anything.

Until, an unknown amount of time passed.

In this dark underground, even time is swallowed up, so he cannot be sure.

All I could feel was the sudden, vibrant pulse of life in another part of my consciousness.

"Ok?"

Su Zhe was somewhat surprised.

"Not dead?"

He reintegrated his consciousness into his clone, followed by a sharp, stinging pain.

The damage caused by the black ball's explosion was quite significant, but fortunately, his body was quite robust, and with the help of his devouring ability, he barely survived.

Su Zhe breathed a sigh of relief and slowly opened his eyes.

He found himself adrift at sea.

The surroundings had returned to calm. The sea serpent that had been stirring up trouble had disappeared, and not far away, the armed ship carrying the Thousand Rock Army was slowly sinking into the sea.

His gaze shifted, and he saw another ship.

The Thousand Rock Army soldiers standing on the ship were silently watching him.

They carried long spears, not to fight the enemy, but to protect.

"Thank you."

Commander of the Chiiwa Army, Aso Tetsuo, saluted.

Immediately afterwards, the Thousand Rock Army soldiers around him also saluted.

This is a very strange scene: humans paying homage to sea creatures and expressing their gratitude.

Perhaps this was just a chance encounter at sea, but at least for now, they are not enemies.

Su Zhe didn't speak, even though he couldn't say anything. He just turned over and dragged his broken body away.

Chapter 9 Ningguang: A Sea Beast That Can Be Tamed

Liyue Harbor, at the Jade Pavilion.

Ningguang listened to the latest report from her secretary, her brows furrowed.

What is the casualty situation?

"According to Captain Yang Qi, the mutated whale blocked the sea serpent's strongest attack for them, so there were no casualties. Only a few Thousand Rock Army soldiers were injured, and they also lost a ship."

"That's... alright."

Ningguang nodded gently.

No one died, that's good.

As for the lost armed ships, although they were valuable, they were worth the precious intelligence they yielded.

After all, building these ships is an investment in itself, and it's a good thing that they can realize their due value.

"Lord Ningguang, that sea serpent is seriously injured. Should we send someone to pursue it? If it recovers, things might not be good."

"The dragon has entered the sea, and there is no way to catch it."

"Should we ask that person at Wangshu Inn for help?"

"No need for now. If we have to bother the immortals with everything, wouldn't that make us look incompetent? It's just a mere sea serpent; there's no need to worry too much." Ningguang pondered for a moment. "What about Beidou's fleet? Has she returned?"

"Southern Cross returned yesterday."

Ningguang stood up.

The secretary asked, "Do you need Miss Beidou's help to deal with the sea snake?"

Ningguang smiled slightly: "No rush. Compared to that sea serpent, I'm more interested in that mutated baby whale."

It's quite rare to see a sea monster actively rescuing humans.

If they can be tamed, it will greatly make up for the Thousand Rock Army's lack of naval combat power.

Moreover, judging from the current situation, the baby whale's strength should continue to grow, and it may even become stronger than the sea serpent in the future.

In this way, taming this baby whale is more cost-effective than building several armed ships.

After all, even the best ship can't dive into the water.

If there were an obedient sea creature, it could not only fight the enemy, but also help her find the treasures that had sunk to the bottom of the sea.

Well, I didn't mean anything by it, it's just a collection of cultural relics.

Therefore, one whale = n ships
