Chapter 132 - The Power of the Sea
This sentence further solidified my thoughts. The legendary mysterious country - Atlantis, actually existed! I thought of the legends I had heard, and I was so excited that I couldn't speak for a while.
.
"Why did you leave the earth and come here?" After I calmed down, I first picked out the question I wanted to know most and asked the high priest.
The high priest shook his head, "Our ancestors had no choice but to leave their homeland unless forced by circumstances. But for us, for the earth, the space you mentioned, our emotions are not deep.
After all, we have been living in this dimension for thousands of years."
"Forced by the situation?" I looked at the aircraft we were riding on. This kind of technology is currently not available to even the most high-tech companies on earth to develop such a vehicle. "You have such a high level of technology, what situation would prevent you from being able to develop it?"
How about overcoming a decision as big as dimension migration?”
"It was the Yuanchu people who saved us Atlan people, not because we were willing to migrate." When the high priest said about the Yuanchu people, his eyes were filled with supreme respect.
Another person from the early Yuan Dynasty!
"Huh? I see that you are almost the same as me. Aren't you from the early Yuan Dynasty?"
The high priest glanced at me with his strange pupils, "Who said someone with similar appearance would be from the early Yuan Dynasty?"
This confused me. Didn’t the grandma from the centaur tribe tell me this? I always thought that as long as I found someone who looked like me in this other world, I would have found an organization, but now I have found a group of similar people.
But he said he was from Atlan and didn’t want to recognize me?!
It seems that in different dimensions, people in the early Yuan Dynasty are expressed differently. In the dimension where I live, everyone has two arms, two legs, one head and one mouth. They say that those who have soul and body united are the people in the early Yuan Dynasty, and
In this dimension, the appearance of all tribes is very different. After staying here for a long time, an ordinary normal person like me has become a rare species here. I can't find anyone similar to me. Why do I still feel a little inferior?
Woolen cloth...
"But our appearances are indeed completely different." After the old man finished speaking, he pushed away the long white hair covering his face. I saw three shocking gashes on his neck. The red flesh was opening and closing.
of, "This is..."
I've seen similar holes like this somewhere... By the way! There were holes like this on those fishmen in the dark cave under the Altar Swamp!
The ears of the white-haired old priest are also surprisingly big. Despite their lack of flesh color, they are transparent and stick tightly to the back of his head, like two pieces of plastic earmuffs covering the ear holes, and like the old priest wearing a big DJ headset.
, no wonder he keeps his hair so long just to cover his ears and neck and make himself look more like a person from the early Yuan Dynasty...
"The fishmen under the swamp altar..." I asked the old priest tentatively to see if he would accept my words, "between them and you...?"
"They are also residents of Atalan, but they have turned into beasts too seriously, so they have been separated." The old priest replied, and sure enough, they are related!
"They are sent out by Atlan to complete the task of guarding the sacred objects given to us by the people in the early Yuan Dynasty. I remember that the Altar Swamp you mentioned... should be guarded by Clark. Since you know Master Qinghe
, I must have met Clark too."
"You mean that big octopus? Oh no, it's the big... fish god..."
"Hahahahahaha..." The old priest laughed heartily, and this laughter made me blush even more...
"People from the early Yuan Dynasty, you can call us whatever you want. Aren't names just a tool for appellation? Don't worry too much about it."
"Yes, yes...I am shallow..."
"The big octopus is Clark, and Clark is the big octopus. There are several Clarks in this sea. If you have the chance, you will see them all from the early Yuan Dynasty."
"But I still want to know what is the reason why you have to migrate." I felt that the high priest was deliberately doing Tai Chi with me. I couldn't let him lead me, so I quickly brought the topic back.
"People from the early Yuan Dynasty, do you know that there was a great flood on the earth you mentioned? It was just a continuous rainstorm at first. There was a person from the early Yuan Dynasty who warned the Atlan people in advance that the disaster was coming, but
At that time, only a few Atlan people believed what the people of the early Yuan Dynasty said, and most of the Atlan people believed that they already had the technology to go to heaven and earth, and this small rain disaster was not worth mentioning."
The high priest smoothed his hair with his hand and continued, "Until the flood came violently from behind, rolling up waves thousands of feet high, destroying everything...swallowing everything..."
I looked at the high priest with a confused look in his eyes, as if he had experienced it himself.
"The people in the early Yuan Dynasty were affectionate, but they still couldn't bear to see the Atlan people become extinct, so they gave us the power of the ocean, so that those Atlan people who were not dead had the ability to breathe underwater. We Atlan people
Talent can continue to survive..."
"It was the people from the early Yuan Dynasty who gave you the power of the ocean?!"
"Of course." The white-haired old priest pointed at his neck, and I understood. What surprised me was not the power of the ocean, but the fact that we were both from the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty. Am I really the only one who is so weak... Now if I go back to the past
In the dimension, it may not be too weak, but here, compared with the ancient god of war like Chi You, I am just like a little chicken!
"We're here." One of the pilots stood up, walked to me, lifted up a board on the ground, and a downward staircase appeared in front of me. He was the first to go down. Each time he went down, the stairs
It would emit light. When the driver went down to the bottom step, the entire lower level was lit up. I followed several drivers and the white-haired old priest and walked down the stairs. There was a corridor below, but it was only a few meters long.
, at the end is a circular room, like a small mushroom tent set up at the end of the corridor.
"People from the early Yuan Dynasty, don't worry, we are now thousands of meters below the sea level. No matter how powerful Chi You is, water is his Achilles' heel after all, not to mention it is so deep, you don't have to worry."
The high priest saw me walking in the middle and looked around. He thought I was worried and came closer to comfort me. In fact, I was just curious about everything here and wanted to take a closer look at what kind of technology this was.
, one day I return to the previous dimension, maybe I can learn from the technology I saw here and make a fortune!
A driver opened the roof of the small circular room, and I saw two dark passages, both going downwards. The driver folded his hands on his chest, walked to one of the passages and sat down, like sitting on a
Like a slide, it disappeared before my eyes.
"Enter the Yuanchu people, there is a pressure reaction pool below. For insurance reasons, I still ask you, can you breathe underwater? Master Qinghe asked me to take more care of you, so I am not questioning your ability. I
Just asking..." the old priest asked.
"No, no, no! I can't! I can't even swim!" I immediately refused three times in a row! Fortunately, he asked, otherwise I would have been a landlubber and jumped in after them, and I would have been doomed!
"That's it...that's still a bit troublesome..." The remaining people stopped and waited for the old priest's instructions.
"Isn't there that kind of herb that can breathe underwater? Chi You once used that for me, haven't you?" I remember Chi You used that kind of grass mud for me so that I could breathe underwater with a stick of incense.
These Atlan people live in the sea. There must be something better than that thing. How can it be difficult?
"You don't know something in the early Yuan Dynasty. The problem of underwater breathing is easy to solve, but... if you have never had the ability to breathe underwater, I'm afraid your body can't withstand such strong seawater pressure. We are now
Thousands of miles below the sea level, I'm afraid that once you go out, everyone may..."
"What will happen?"
"burst."
My face turned pale when I heard these two words! I exploded! Is it that exaggerated?
"Then why can you do it and I can't? How do you withstand the pressure? There are so many animals in the deep sea living well and growing up! You don't want to welcome me..."
I suspect they are scaring me because they don’t want me to see the legendary Atlantis! After all, they may still not trust me. After all, Chi You and I have been very close... They may also be suspicious of my position.
, so they were unwilling to take me to their base camp.
"Sigh...why don't we welcome you...Forget it, let's give it a try and equip the people of the early Yuan Dynasty with that set of equipment."
As soon as the high priest finished speaking, a pilot brought me a helmet. It was very big. It was the kind of helmet they wore before, a spacesuit helmet, but it was full of liquid. How could anyone wear it?
"Yuanchu people, please bear with me. These liquids are specially modified breathing liquids by us Atlan people. It will circulate in your organs and lungs so that you will not choke on water."
I took the helmet hesitantly and put it on my head according to the instructions of the high priest. I held my breath and closed my eyes. The liquid did not have a very pungent smell, but had a light salty smell and was very cold.
"Enter Yuanchu, don't hold your breath, keep breathing." The high priest's voice came through the helmet. I thought I heard wrong. This is all water, how can I breathe!
"Enter Yuanchu! Don't hold your breath!" Seeing that his words were useless, the high priest directly spoke to my consciousness. I tried to take a breath, and the cool liquid poured from my nostrils into my chest. I was choked and coughed.
I got up, which allowed more liquid to be poured down my airway.
Lungs! My nose and mouth were all choked with this liquid. The feeling of suffocation made me dance and claw everywhere, desperately looking for life-saving straws, but through the helmet, I saw that all the Atlan people were silent.
looked at me without any reaction...
Do they want my life?! But I can no longer delve into the reason. Within a few seconds, my consciousness has begun to fade. My body's instinct makes me grab my neck with my hands and try to pick it off.
Chapter completed!
