315: Miss the days of Gou San

When Hou Yi arrived in the underwater world, he was very surprised. He said that in ancient times, no one would have lived here, as the conditions were poor and it was too barren.

Han Huohuo smiled, then pointed at the time-space shard in the distance and asked Hou Yi, “Do you have a way to get that shard out of the Sea Eye?”

Hou Yi glanced at it; he possessed the Eagle Eye skill and could see clearly. The shard was extremely distinct, as if right before his eyes.

“I’ll try!”

Hou Yi suddenly raised his Sunset Bow, aimed in that direction, and drew the string.

A scorching light arrow appeared on the bow.

Han Huohuo exclaimed, “Don’t shoot and damage my house!”

Hou Yi replied, “No, this arrow of mine can even penetrate time and space. This transparent curtain wall won’t block the light arrow.”

Only then did Han Huohuo breathe a sigh of relief.

Hou Yi drew his bow and shot the arrow. The light arrow, like a phantom, suddenly shot out, resembling a shadow. It passed through the transparent curtain wall, instantly reaching the Sea Eye, and then directly struck the time-space shard.

The time-space shard was shaken, instantly knocked out of the Sea Eye’s position, and then with a “whoosh,” it vanished, shot off to who knows where!

Han Huohuo was dumbfounded.

“My shard! Chase it quickly!”

Hou Yi looked at Han Huohuo suspiciously, “So you wanted that shard? Why didn’t you say so earlier? I thought you just wanted to get rid of it.”

Han Huohuo was on the verge of tears. He had finally gotten the time-space shard out of the Sea Eye, but in the vast ocean, where was he to find this shard?

He strode towards the pier. Hou Yi realized he seemed to have caused trouble and followed closely behind.

The two entered the submarine and went into the ocean.

“In that direction.” Hou Yi guided Han Huohuo, who piloted the submarine in hot pursuit.

“A little to the east. The shard has deviated a bit, possibly due to an underwater current.” Hou Yi began to direct again.

Han Huohuo turned to look at Hou Yi, “You can see the shard?”

Hou Yi nodded, “Yes, my Eagle Eye skill is different from yours. It has built-in night vision and can see thousands of miles away. Although the light underwater isn’t good, seeing a thousand miles away is still possible.”

How come these damned gods are all so unlike humans!

Han Huohuo was not entirely convinced, but he finally relaxed, knowing that the shard wouldn’t be lost, it was just flying a bit fast.

“You need to hurry, otherwise that shard will go beyond my tracking range!” Hou Yi reminded Han Huohuo.

Han Huohuo had already accelerated the submarine to its fastest speed, fearing he would lose the shard, for it was his life.

Fortunately, the underwater resistance was high. Although the shard’s initial speed was great, it was now slowing down and getting closer to the submarine.

“One good news, one bad news. Which do you want to hear first?” Hou Yi asked Han Huohuo.

“I want to hear them both!” Han Huohuo didn't fall for it.

“Alright, the good news is that the shard has run out of kinetic energy and sunk to the bottom of the sea. The bad news is, where it landed, there’s a massive underwater tribe, and the monsters there are a bit scary.”

Only then did Han Huohuo realize that there really were monsters at the bottom of the sea.

Of all places, the shard had to fall into a monster tribe? It was truly infuriating. Han Huohuo suddenly missed Gou San. If the traitor Gou San were here, the shard would never have fallen into a monster’s lair.

“It’s fine, we’ll fight our way in, grab the shard, and leave! Tell me, what kind of monsters did you see?”

“Octopuses. They seem to have the bloodline of the ancient beast Kraken. I used to find those giant beasts very troublesome when I encountered them.”

“It’s nothing, it’s just a bit of bloodline, not an ancient beast itself.”

Han Huohuo already knew that ancient giant beasts were comparable to gods, even more terrifying than gods. Kraken, it seemed, was like Jörmungandr, both ancient bloodline giant beasts.

Octopuses have nine brains, making them smarter than humans. These monsters are not native to this planet; they also came from the stars.

They are purely aquatic monsters that have occupied the seabed.

Of course, for some reason, this group of monsters is more sensitive to the Sea Eye and carefully avoids its location.

This was a large tribe of octopuses, led by a terrifying giant Octopus Leader. He had just finished eating, consuming three whales, barely sated, when he heard a “ding” sound. A shimmering shard landed before his eyes.

A treasure?

The Octopus Leader’s eyes lit up. He picked up the shard and, based on his intelligence, judged it to be an extraordinary treasure.

Then he heard an Octopus Monster scout report.

“Report, there are monsters invading. It’s a cylindrical metal object, like something human, heading rapidly towards us.”

“Follow me out and see who it is!”

Before Han Huohuo’s vessel arrived, he saw a large group of Octopus Monsters surrounding them in the distance. He checked their attributes, which gave Han Huohuo a fright.

【Octopus Monster】: Terrifying Abyssal Monster, Tier Seven.

【Combat Power】: Strength 250, Defense 100, Endurance 250, Intelligence 100.

【Special Skills】: Water Arrow: Shoots terrifying Abyssal Water Arrows, immense power.

Underwater Creature: Swift underwater movement, unaffected by water pressure.

Oppression: Inflicts fear effect on small creatures.

【Drops】: abyss crystal

【Chance Drop】: Ocean Core

Then he saw an even larger Octopus Monster, which was actually an eighth-tier leader.

【Abyssal Leader】: Terrifying Abyssal Monster, Tier Eight.

【Combat Power】: Strength 750, Defense 150, Endurance 550, Intelligence 300.

【Special Skills】: Consecutive Water Arrows: Shoots terrifying Abyssal Consecutive Water Arrows, immense single-target power.

Underwater Creature: Swift underwater movement, unaffected by water pressure.

Oppression: Inflicts fear effect on small creatures.

Leadership: Increases attributes of subordinate aquatic monsters by 100%.

【Drops】: Ocean Core

【Chance Drop】: Various Divine Artifacts and Treasures

After reading the attributes, Han Huohuo was a bit flustered. This seemed not so good. Tier Seven monsters’ attributes were doubled, which was too terrifying.

“Who goes there? This is the Abyss Tribe. Outsiders are not allowed to enter. Leave quickly! This King will let bygones be bygones.” The Octopus Leader couldn’t ascertain the submarine’s details and didn’t act rashly.

Humans who could reach such depths certainly weren’t ordinary. Octopuses are highly intelligent, so they naturally didn’t want to offend easily.

The submarine had a loudspeaker, and Han Huohuo shouted loudly through the sonar, “I have a shard that fell into your tribe. Did any of you pick it up?”

The Octopus Leader swayed a claw and asked the small octopuses around him, “Did any of you pick up a shard?”

All the octopuses shouted in unison, “Your Majesty, no!”

The Octopus Leader turned back to the submarine and said, “You heard them, no. You should leave quickly.”

Han Huohuo had already sensed a strong time-space power within the camp, so he naturally didn't give up and shouted again, “Can I come in and look for it? I can feel the shard’s power; it might have fallen into some corner!”

The Octopus Leader became furious, “Where did this yellow-haired child come from, daring to boast about searching our Abyss Tribe? Do you not value your life?!”
