In Terra, she is a hunter and a bad woman.

Chapter 394: Companions? Messengers? Enemies?

peaceful……

Maria felt... the long-lost tranquility.

This time's journey seems a little different from the previous ones... There is no dizziness, no irritability, only an indescribable calmness.

The sea water slowly enveloped her like some kind of musical note. The mother who gave birth to everything, at this moment, once again embraced Maria.

The air could no longer convey its voice to Maria, and the sound of the ocean's breathing reached her ears little by little.

Countless sea water surged up, supporting her body.

then……

"Ok?"

Maria slowly opened her eyes.

But the world is dark.

At the same time, her body felt as if it were filled with lead, heavy and unable to move...

No... It's not that I can't move, it's that something is squeezing me.

Maria was stunned for a moment, then slowly stood up.

But even with this action, Maria could feel that she had encountered unprecedented obstacles.

No matter which direction the body moves, it can feel a strong resistance.

And under the feet, there was also a thick layer of strange stuff similar to mud.

Ok?

Maria blinked.

Get up slowly.

The pupils are slightly red.

As Maria switched states, the things in her vision gradually became clearer.

But...it's also at this time.

The ferocious little flat heads appeared in front of Maria!

The bone-white teeth were sharp and pointed, and the eyeballs that were spit out were covered with a layer of gray mist...

"Ok?"

When this strange fish noticed Maria turned her head, it ran away immediately as if frightened.

Maria did not deliberately chase the other party. She just took a look and looked around.

The dark environment and the sticky resistance made her realize her current situation.

"deep sea?"

Maria thought about it for a while and was also a little confused.

At this moment, she might be more than just the deep sea.

She might even have fallen to the deepest part of the ocean...

The surroundings were filled with a cold darkness that not even light could penetrate.

This made Maria hesitate.

She came here to look for Agor, but the place she started out in was a chaotic place with nothing in it. How could she find him?

Take it step by step and try your luck to find it?

Maria frowned slightly, her eyes looking a little subtle.

But fortunately, Maria didn't have to think too long, and suddenly a bright light shone in the darkness.

It penetrated the darkness of the seabed, forming a straight path of light facing Maria.

The intense light frightened creatures that were not exposed to light.

They fled from the road of light in a panic like mice.

"Ok?"

Maria tilted her head and faced the source of the light.

With her eyes, she could clearly see the unique oval object.

It looks like...

Kind of like an egg?

Maria pondered.

But even faster, the other party's lights began to twist.

It changed from being directly facing Maria to one aiming and the other moving.

From facing the ground, twisting to shining the light on the hull of the ship, and finally...

"Click..."

Inside the sleek black hull, the hatch opened, opening a path to the interior for Maria.

"Is this... an invitation to me?"

Maria blinked, curious.

……

"This...this is impossible!"

In the cab, a group of people in light clothing were looking at Maria in astonishment as she moved.

Judging from her posture, she seemed to be able to completely ignore the water pressure that was enough to crush a person into meat paste, and her body did not change at all!

She is simply superhuman!

"Don't think anything is impossible..."

On the side, a slim woman smiled and slowly walked in front of everyone.

Through the amazing glass craftsmanship, she could also clearly see Maria walking slowly in the deep sea.

After she looked at the other person for a while, Maria seemed to have sensed something, stopped, turned her head and looked at the woman.

The white hair fluttered slightly on the seabed, and the blood-red pupils were disturbingly indifferent, but they looked like bright red blood, attracting everyone's attention.

"She... is she looking here?"

The man who was surprised at first was now even more stunned. After hesitating for a long time, he frantically denied it.

"Impossible! No matter how powerful she is, she can't possibly violate the laws of light refraction. She can't possibly..."

"Don't resist so much, Maritus..."

The woman smiled as she looked at Maria in the distance. After she saw her turn her head again and walk towards her, she slowly exhaled.

"Have awe of this world, Maritus...Have awe of this world..."

……

"Wow--"

Walking down the corridor, Maria discovered that at the end of the road was a cold iron gate.

With the operation of the machinery, the heavy sea water was lowered very quickly. Soon, Maria breathed the not-so-fresh air again.

And the iron gate opened at this time.

The team of two women and one man stood in front of Maria.

Leading the group was a woman with platinum hair and eyes.

She held up a strangely shaped staff and looked at Maria with a smile, curiosity in her eyes.

The other woman with blue hair and black eyes blinked, showing only pure curiosity about Maria's behavior.

On the contrary, the man looked at Maria as if he had seen a ghost, with an expression of disbelief.

"This is impossible!"

He cried out in frustration.

The blue-haired woman beside him looked at him with some annoyance and shook her head helplessly.

"You've repeated it so many times... I know there may be some things in this world that you can't believe, but I think, at least, now that the facts have appeared, you should learn to accept and understand them instead of blindly denying them."

"You do not understand!"

The man shook his head firmly, his eyes falling on Maria again.

After pausing for two seconds, he could no longer suppress his curiosity. He took a few steps forward and looked at Maria.

He couldn't imagine it.

Even after the water receded so quickly and the water pressure Maria was exposed to was cleared, she still did not react at all.

At this time, shouldn't a normal person be unconscious?

No, no, no, that's not right. It should be said that he died directly!

But...if we consider Maria's ability to move freely under the sea tens of thousands of meters deep, it all seems to make sense...

Thinking of this, Maritus's expression became complicated and tangled.

But just as he was about to observe Maria further, the white-blonde woman finally spoke.

"I think we should maintain a certain level of etiquette when facing guests..."

"But……"

"No buts."

The woman's voice was still as calm as ever, and even the smile on her face hadn't changed at all.

But even such calm words made Maritus's expression suddenly change.

The original joy of discovery was instantly diluted, and there was only indifference and silence on his face.

He hesitated for a few moments, then lowered his head and returned to the woman's back, standing side by side with the blue-haired woman.

“It’s a very strict hierarchy.”

Maria saw the clue and after a moment of silence, she nodded slightly and gave her own thoughts.

But the woman just smiled.

"A clear division of labor and hierarchy will facilitate smooth operations... There can only be one captain on a ship, right?"

"..."

"Nice to meet you, strange lady. I am the leader of this ship, Helatia. It is an honor to meet you."

Helatia said, extending her right hand.

After a pause, Maria also stretched out her hand.

"Maria..."

"What a wonderful name."

The two people held each other's hands, marking their first meeting.

Behind the woman, a man and a woman looked at the handshake, obviously surprised.

But before Maria turned her head curiously, Helatia reacted.

She chuckled, bent down slightly, and kissed her lips to the back of Maria's hand.

This surprised Maria.

To be honest, this might be the first time she has been treated as a woman since she came into this world.

This action was also a test by Helatia.

After she finished the kiss, she paused, then put Maria's hand down and looked at her with a chuckle.
