Cassius has always looked indifferent, he has been smiling gently, as if he is looking at life and death very lightly, as if he is enjoying the process of the journey itself, the foggy swamp, this place in the center of the continent is connected to the veins of the sea, which is in itself an extremely admirable thing.

"Haha, which fish do you want to eat today, point it out, catch it on the table and serve it into soup." Li Yi was also quite happy, he stayed in this dreary ghost place for half a month, those poisonous dragons were like a dark cloud hanging in his heart, I don't know why they are so hostile to humans, he doesn't want to delve into the festivals, but how Edmund knows everything about this place, he can't figure it out, Edmund's three gold-level peak spirits have always been gold-level peaks, if it is a card level, how long has he been stuck, what is he waiting for? Or did he stop there, oh, that's impossible, the hatred or ideals that some men bury deep in their hearts won't become jokes as the years go by, otherwise he wouldn't have been so low-key in the Sky Academy.
"Sure enough, what you started by yourself still has to end by yourself, so that it is perfect, everyone has their own perfection, just between the beginning and the end." Li Yi seemed to have made up his mind in his heart, as if he had suddenly changed as a person.
The submarine was sinking at a breakneck speed, and every kilometer it passed, Isabella was asked to measure the bottom of the trench with her over-range sense. However, it was disappointing that after two days, they still did not see the bottom, the waterway did not even have a fork, the rock walls were tightly closed, and there was not a cave that seemed to lead to another place, and they descended vertically, and the atmosphere in the submarine gradually became gloomy.
"It's amazing that 20,000 meters have passed, and the deepest trench in the world has lived up to its name." Cassius didn't know why, but was very excited, as if he thought that it was a rare opportunity to see such a strange natural landscape.
"Outside, just one floor away from us, there's a thousand atmospheres of pressure, and when you get out, you'll be crushed by a stream of water like an iron block." Li Yi looked at the gloomy black sea area and said casually.
"Guys, do you want to dive? Alger went to investigate, the poisonous dragon was still arranged on it, and they were not relaxed, they knew a lot about humans, and now, I have an idea, we will concentrate on one point, and then attract all the attention to it, causing the uneven distribution of the poisonous dragon's defenses, and then Cassius will use the space converter to change to the periphery. The trench down here will probably be a dead end! He was a little depressed.
"That's unrealistic, your Tiger Shark-level pontoon can't outrun the red-level high-level spirit, don't worry, keep diving, why don't you trust yourself and start judging? Water is the source of life, flowing water is our vitality, you are the core of the team, how can you lose confidence? Cassius offered a reassuring word, but to no avail, and they were almost cornered.
Paul, who talked a lot, was completely silent, he looked a little depressed, every day was a monotonous decline, and the scenery outside was also those seaweed and deep-sea fish, strange shapes, which made people look at the fish that could have nightmares at night, with a little silver light on their heads, and the fish that hid their bloody mouths in the dark, with flat bodies, like streamers drifting in the water, skeletons, fish with only eyes moving.
They seem calm and serene, but in fact, the slightest movement will make them jump up like frightened rabbits, looking left and right.
Every morning, maybe it's morning, a few people come out of the room, their eyes are bloodshot, sleep, in a depressing environment can be completely asleep is an extremely luxurious thing, if it weren't for the outstanding mental adjustment ability, they would have gone crazy, but strange to say, Sophia is still the same as before, has not changed at all, maybe she has been in this oppressive and gloomy environment for a long time, and she doesn't think it's a thing that makes the spirit depressed.
"Chief, report something." Isabella suddenly said to Li Yi with an excited expression.
"Say, is it the end?" Li Yi asked listlessly, they have been living underwater for more than a month, no one has to remember the depressing number, and their lives are monotonous as if they just watch the seaweed rise and fall every day.
"The water pressure is getting lower, it's me, we're going to float! However, according to the coordinates, we are clearly diving. Isabella replied.
"That's probably your delusion, an illusion caused by too much mental repression." Li Yi shrugged his shoulders and lowered his head to sip a cup of coffee.
"No, let's bet the submarine is about to surface, well, it's going to take as long as it was before, and you're in good spirits?" Cassius clapped his hands, "Cheer up!" Things have taken a turn for the better! ”
"Of course I'm fine, because I've expected the ending, Paul is accompanied by a beauty, and it won't be bad compared to it, I didn't expect that there is really a passage to the opposite side of the world in the foggy swamp, but I didn't expect this passage to be a little surprising, not a space transformation, not a certain teleportation point of the gods' twisted rules, not a wormhole or some messy thing, it's just a simple deep hole, a twisted and bizarre, through the whole world, a deep hole that connects the sea on the opposite side of the world, I marveled at the guy who dug the hole. Li Yi's decadent expression was swept away, and his bright eyes lit up from the dust, making it really impossible to tell whether he had known it for a long time or only realized it when he heard Isabella's discovery.
"Could it be that we were forced to the other side of the world by the poisonous dragon? Damn, if you can improve your strength as soon as possible and reach the high level of red, you can easily tear through the defense line of the poisonous dragon and go home. Paul withdrew his gaze.
"That's it, when we have that kind of strength, we will return, I hope it won't last long, the opposite side of the world, what is there, I'm really looking forward to it!" Li Yi frowned.
"Time flies too fast, and now the tense situation on the mainland has long been surging, it's a pity, I can't participate in it, but there is no red-level strength, it is difficult to influence anything in it, and when we collectively return, in order to commemorate that special day, we must do something earth-shattering, otherwise I will go crazy for more than two months of aggrieved under the sea, and the first thing I do when I go out is to find a place where no one is screaming." Cassius scratched the seventy-third mark on the table with his fingernails, and counting the days in this way changed from a casual to a neurotic act.
"When I go out, I'm going to have a big meal, and I eat those weird deep-water fish here every day, it's just... I don't eat fish in my life! When Paul saw the fish, he wanted to vomit.
A month later, they paid for the sea, and saw a gray sky that was completely different from the sea around the alum continent, this was the autumn of slaughter, the sky was dull, the turbid waves were monstrous, the lead clouds were rolling, and the rain was gradually spreading, and several people greedily inhaled the salty and wet sea breeze, and regained their lives, so that the rain was all over their bodies.
For Li Yi, a year is obviously a long time, but there are some things that he can't change. may leave regrets, but there are inevitably regrets in life, and he yearns for the kind of regrets that he can control and choose, but unfortunately he has never had this opportunity.
"This rainstorm is really hearty, so that I feel alive again, let's land quickly, now when I see the sea, I feel sick when I smell the fishy smell." Paul jumped around like a toad with his limbs wide open, exposing his body to rain in as many places as possible, and it turned out that he would show animalistic tendencies when he was extremely excited.
"Don't worry, we're going to mark this place, it's our way back, Isabella, and map this area into a nautical chart." Li Yi seemed very calm, if he had the strength or method to break through the poisonous dragon blockade in the future, but he couldn't find this undersea passage, it would be embarrassing. Cassius, on the other hand, did not say a word, and looked pleased.
After a long period of suppression, the outbreak will be extraordinarily hot, Li Yi is also tired of fish, from soup, steaming, braised to sashimi dipped in mustard, he has eaten these things repeatedly for two months, the amount of fresh fruits and pasta in the space ring is only enough for four people to eat as a snack, fish is the staple food, and there is even more bad taste of starch and protein powder, it feels like a burst of sand in the mouth, which is something that will only feel delicious when the food is exhausted.
"This, is this the sea? I haven't seen the sea yet, I've only read it in books before, and it says that a brave man fights a shark with a steel fork in his hand, that a fisherman can catch a tuna more than a person tall with a piece of sesame oil, and that there is a white sandy beach, and the sun, and the sea breeze..."Sophia was almost intoxicated, like a little crab that had always lived in a jar, and suddenly it was thrown into the sea, and it was like a dream to go from a container that could only hold its body to an endless world.
"I know how to fish, but I can't catch more than a person's tuna, and as for fighting sharks... Forget it, it seems that I am not heroic enough, Li Yi, do you dare to fight with sharks? Fight with the vicious tyrant of the sea? Paul asked, crossing his waist and finding the same feeling.
"Not interested." The answer was also typical of Li Yi's style, and everyone laughed.
"I don't know what kind of ******** is on the back side of the world, is it still humans who occupy the main body? Are the explorers here strong or not? We need to raise to the red level as soon as possible, so that we can have the strength to fight the poisonous dragon. Cassius squinted, as if wistful.
"It can be determined that the sea is the same, and other places can only be compared with what you have seen, but it is not a small difficulty to break through to the red level within a year, and I hope that there will be no major incidents on the mainland within this year." Paul nodded.
"A major event has happened, since the Sky Academy's assassination of Li Yi failed, the eighteen red-level spirits invested in it have been shattered, the Imperial Academy and the Kurosawa Academy will definitely join forces to deal with the Sky Academy, and when the time comes, it will inevitably develop into a war that will affect the continent, the Chosen and those conspirators with different purposes, the hidden world organization, have all come out to make trouble, and every time the big destruction is really a sign of turmoil from within, when we go back, the continent will already be full of mourning!" Cassius speculated.
"No, the Imperial Academy and the Kurosawa Academy will refrain from it, any incident mixed with the Chosen One will become unpredictable, I don't think the Imperial Academy can win in this regard." Li Yi shook his head.
"Sky Academy has offended the other two academies at once, and their relationship with the Overseas Explorer Alliance is also notoriously poor, so it seems that they have made countless enemies." Cassius shook his head as well.
"That's what makes people feel strange, a thing that is obviously stupid, but it is done so thoroughly, plus the other party is a big force, and it is not a mental hospital, this is very suspicious, indicating that there must be something hidden behind us that we don't see." Li Yi shook his head again and signaled that he would stop arguing, which had little to do with him.
At the same time, in the central natural area of Kurosawa Academy, which covers an area of several hundred hectares, an old man sits in front of a red brick house and burns a small charcoal stove, while a beautiful girl next to him is chopping wood with a short-handled axe.
"Little Abby, remember to chop along the wood silk to save some effort, this old chicken is about to be stewed, just owe a fire, but it's a pity that it's only the two of us, your brother doesn't know how to run there and play crazy, otherwise keep him an egg basket, he loves to eat this." The old man has goosebumps and veins on his arms. The varicose is very strong, age spots are all over the hands and face, the crystal white hair is dyed with a layer of orange-red light under the glow of the setting sun, the chicken soup mixed with the fragrance of wild yam wafts far away, some old people look very kind and close, and some old people have hateful faces, which is also due to personality, not that old age is necessarily peaceful.
The girl chopped very hard, there was a slight sweat on her forehead, and the chopped firewood was picked up by the old man into the hearth, and the flames hit the bottom of the pot, but in the end it was not their turn to taste the taste of chicken. At last, when the milky chicken soup was boiling, the old man wrapped the handle of the casserole in a linen cloth and brought it into the house.
This is the heart of Kurosawa Gakuin, which occupies an outrageous area and still retains the same ecology as it was hundreds of years ago. All the students knew that such an old man lived in it, and knew that he would stew a chicken every day, but only the best geniuses of Kurosawa Academy could share chicken soup and chicken with this old man.
He is the lonely king of this forest, and he is also the king of Kurosawa Academy, although he is old, but the deterrent power is not weaker than back then, no one knows how long this old man has lived, and he does not know how strong his personal strength is, but Kurosawa Academy has always been known for its accumulation, and the more you go to the back, the more terrifying it becomes.
"Puff puff!" There was a sound of wings stirring, and it turned out to be a white dove parked at the window.
"I guess it's important to send an urgent letter while I'm eating." The old man gently grabbed the pigeon, took a metal capsule from its foot, and bit it open with what few teeth he had left, and there was a blue note inside.
"Well, Paul sent a hummingbird to report the emergency, saying that it would not be able to return for the time being, but did not say specifics. The poor child, who escaped by narrowly being involved in an assassination attempt, and who was in danger soon after, I wish him from the bottom of my heart, this child has always been very hard, and he cannot die. The old man said vaguely.
"Hmph, that Li Yi, not a good person, bullied me, and now he is going to lie to my brother, grandpa, you want to avenge us!" Abby bites a chicken leg and tears it with a finely crushed tooth, and the image is very indecent. (To be continued.) )
