Genshin Impact, starting from becoming the God of the Ocean

This is a priceless deal.

"Don't publicize this matter for now. I will handle it personally. Also, have someone keep a close eye on the movements of the Southern Cross fleet and notify me immediately if there is any news."

...

Thanks to Ningguang's instructions, the news of the naval battle did not spread.

However, after that battle, several Thousand Rock soldiers were injured and a ship was lost, something that could not be kept secret.

In addition, there have been occasional rumors circulating among the public that a terrifying sea monster has appeared in the vicinity of Guyun Pavilion.

For a time, many ships that were about to set sail hesitated.

Not long after, the Southern Cross ship departed from the port, and the Dragon King Hokuto personally boarded the Death Star to set off, supposedly to challenge the sea monster.

The people of Liyue cheered and wished the Dragon King success in slaying the beast.

the other side.

After returning to his cave, Su Zhe spent several days recuperating.

It was badly injured this time, but fortunately it has an incredible ability to devour prey, which allows it to recover.

Although the flesh and blood of ordinary fish do not enhance his strength much, they are very effective in healing injuries.

After constantly hunting and devouring, Su Zhe finally recovered most of his strength.

"It's time to leave."

The battle with the sea serpent exposed this area, and Seven Stars will definitely send people to investigate.

Although he has temporarily established a good friendship with Qianyan Army, people's hearts are unpredictable, and he is a demon god. If the next one is not human but an immortal, he will be doomed.

As for the sea serpent, its situation is probably not much better than his.

The opponent doesn't have the ability to devour, so it won't attack in a short time.

However, the sudden appearance of such a powerful sea monster meant that the dangers in the ocean were far more terrifying than he had imagined.

Su Zhe left the cave and proceeded around the Lonely Cloud Pavilion mountain range.

He remained in the deep water area of ​​about fifty meters, without venturing any deeper.

Chapter 9 Ningguang: A Sea Beast That Can Be Tamed >>

What puzzled him was that he hadn't encountered any armed ships from Liyue Harbor along the way.

Two sea creatures suddenly appeared in the nearshore area; it's impossible to just leave them alone.

However, on the other hand, in situations like the last one, the Thousand Rock Army did indeed have a difficult time dealing with the ferocious beasts in the sea.

Perhaps they will try a different approach to the investigation.

Su Zhe didn't pay much attention and kept an eye on his surroundings while looking for a new place to stay.

"what?"

Suddenly, he discovered two ships anchored on the sea.

These boats are not large armed vessels, but rather fishing boats built by the residents themselves.

But Su Zhe remembered that there shouldn't be any villages nearby. The closest one was the coastal area of ​​Guiliyuan, but the villagers there wouldn't be foolish enough to come here to fish.

"An adventurer?"

"wrong..."

Through his senses, Su Zhe identified the identities of the people on the ship.

This is a gang of treasure thieves.

"Boss, is this really the place? It doesn't look special at all. Could there really be ruins here?"

"Idiot! Of course, the treasure in the sea is submerged underwater. How can you tell from here? But as the boss also said, the map is too old, so it's normal for the location to have shifted. We're just the vanguard. If we really find the right place, we definitely can't rely on just the few of us."

"That's good. I've done work in the water before, but this is my first time in such a deep place. I heard that two terrifying sea beasts have recently appeared in Lonely Cloud Pavilion... Hiss~"

"Hey buddy, you can't say that."

"What a joke! I've been here the whole time, how come I haven't seen him? He's probably been deliberately released by those Seven Stars guys, they don't want us to take the treasure."

"Alright, alright, enough talk, let's go down and take a look."

There were two ships and a total of six groups of treasure hunters.

The leader was a burly man who directed his men to change into diving gear and then gave two of them a bottle of medicine each.

"This is underwater breathing medication. It can last for about half an hour. It's very expensive, so use it sparingly and pay attention to the time, okay?"

The members of the treasure-hunting group generally do not possess the Eye of God, but they can still use elemental power by concocting special potions.

While rare, alchemical potions that allow underwater breathing are still available to professional thieves.

Su Zhe silently observed all of this.

He had no liking for the treasure-hunting gang.

Back in the game, whenever he was tasked with finding artifacts for the treasure-hunting gang, he would simply give up.

These guys cause chaos and disgust people everywhere. They fight and scare each other in the story, but they never kill anyone.

Not only did he repeatedly cause trouble for the protagonist without being punished, but he also helped him find things.

I don't know which idiot came up with that kind of setting.

He is indeed mentally disabled.

But this isn't a game.

The sea is his territory.

Watching the two members of the treasure-hunting team begin to descend into the sea, Su Zhe quietly sank to the bottom of the ocean and lay motionless.

Based on our conversation, there seem to be ruins nearby.

Although he wasn't interested in Mora, there were always some special things in the ruins that he might be able to devour to increase his strength.

At that moment, two members of the treasure-hunting team began to dive down.

The two separated and swam off to opposite sides.

Beneath this stretch of sea lie numerous protruding reefs and ravines, where Su Zhe remained hidden undetected.

The members of the treasure-hunting team also rotated almost every half hour.

As the exploration slowly unfolded, after about half a day, a signal light suddenly appeared in the deep sea in the distance.

Immediately afterwards, two members of the treasure-hunting team surfaced, shouting excitedly.

"Boss, we found it! There are ruins down there!"

Just then, a huge tail fin emerged from the sea and slammed down hard onto the two fishing boats!

...

Chapter 10 Undersea Ruins

Boom! —

The tail fin is where Su Zhe's body has the strongest power; this blow was too much for the two small fishing boats to withstand.

The fishing boat shattered, and the treasure hunters on board fell into the water.

One was killed instantly, and the remaining five were injured and fell into the water.

After taking the picture, Su Zhe ignored it and swam into the water.

This place is far from the coast, and even with underwater breathing agents, it's impossible to swim to shore.

Of course, he wouldn't care if a miracle happened.

This means that the person was not destined to die.

As for eating these creatures, Su Zhe himself was disgusted and preferred to catch a few big fish instead.

"I didn't expect there to actually be ruins here."

After swimming to the seabed, Su Zhe saw the so-called ruins.

It was an ancient, decaying underground city, larger than any other place discovered before. Legend has it that human civilization there could have continued to develop before the war between the demons and gods.

At that time, the seven gods had not yet been determined, and there were no gods on earth, only messengers of the gods.

The divine messengers walk the earth, spreading divine light across human civilization and proclaiming divine rule.

Su Zhe took over Osel's body and absorbed its memories, learning a little about the past.

Unfortunately, that memory was too murky and ancient, and coupled with the fact that it had been sealed for thousands of years, it generated a large amount of negative emotions, which his human soul simply could not fully bear.

Therefore, Su Zhe did not dare to recklessly probe into the memories left by Oser, and could only obtain some information from a few fragments.

For example, those human civilizations will eventually be destroyed by various kinds of 'divine punishment'.

As for what lies beneath the sea, perhaps this place wasn't submerged by seawater back then.

This situation is not surprising, just like Mondstadt next door, which was once a frozen wasteland.

At this moment.

Su Zhe walked around the ruins but did not rush in.

Having experienced the battle with the sea serpent, he is now very cautious.

Moreover, this site is very well preserved, and there might be powerful sea monsters lurking inside.

He found a place to hide outside the ruins.

About half an hour later, a group of ribbonfish swam over the ruins.

When they swam to the middle of the ruins, suddenly ice spikes shot out from the seabed and pierced the dense school of fish.

In an instant, blood gushed out, and the ribbonfish that had been stabbed to death fell into the ruins, while the survivors immediately fled in panic.

"There really is something there."

Su Zhe was glad he hadn't acted impulsively.

Since this area contains remnants of demons, there will naturally be mutated sea beasts affected by it.
