Embrace the light

As Xiao Haifeng said, after eating the sea spirit orb given by Mo, Zixing and Ziyue were not attacked by intelligent creatures in Mo's main sea area.Moreover, the two of them can naturally and quickly identify whether they meet a sapient creature or a non-sentient creature. This feeling is amazing.

However, there are more uninitiated creatures in the sea area, and being in such an unfamiliar environment can be said to be full of dangers.In just a few days, Zixing and Ziyue have experienced many dangers.

They thought they would see each other soon after parting with Xiao Haifeng, but what Zixing and Ziyue didn't expect was that Mo's main territory was vast and boundless, and dolphins had a wide range of activities and fast swimming speeds. It is still difficult to meet her in the sea area.

In order to get to know this sea area as soon as possible and find the most suitable place to settle down, Zixing and Ziyue spent more than a month stopping and going.

At this time, the moon is rising, and the two are eating the first meal of the day.

[There are so many types and quantities of seashells here. ] Ziyue sighed while holding a small piece of seashell meat and eating it deliciously.

Zi Xing answered, [But the seashells here are very agile. ]

When they came to a new sea area, they saw many new types of sea shells. They did not understand the habits of these sea shells. Even if they chose familiar types of sea shells for cooperative predation, because they were more agile than the ones they met before, Zi Xing and Ziyue can't easily succeed.

The creatures with intelligence turned on here are basically gentle and friendly, and there are some grumpy ones, but no matter what kind of creatures or tempers they are, they will not participate in or help other intelligent creatures to prey.

There is a concept of "helping the weak" in Mo's main sea area, but this is limited to help when sick, injured, at the end of life, orphans and young children, etc. If you are lazy and don't work hard to practice survival skills, other partners will not help you.

"Natural selection, survival of the fittest" is still practiced here.

[We've also gotten a lot more agile. ] Ziyue flicked her tentacles a few times, [Have you noticed that our swimming speed has gradually become faster?Do you think the two of us will grow up to be the largest and most robust starfish in the blue sea like an island? ]

Zi Xing replied, "Let's go with the flow, regardless of whether it will become bigger or not, life is the same as working hard." ]

[However, if we are like the island, we can also serve the master by his side. ]

Zixing asked strangely [We have joined the Siren King group, is it not good to live freely like this? ]

[Okay, okay, but maybe I'm just being greedy.At first, I just wanted to meet the Siren Clan. After I saw it, I wanted to join the Siren Clan. Now that I have become a member of the Siren King Clan, I want to further become the master's personal subordinate. ]

Zixing said, "Don't say that about yourself, you have ideals and ambitions, and your dreams are realized step by step through hard work, this is one of the reasons why you are special." ]

Ziyue was a little shy, [Why are you so nice, thank you for always affirming me and pampering me. ]

Zixing is also a little shy, [because you are very good. ]

[Then what is your dream?We have been working hard for my dreams, and it is time to move towards your dreams. ]

Zixing said very seriously [My dream is that we can live safely and healthily, stay together all our lives, be happy every day, hunt together, eat together, walk together, and see various seascapes that we have never seen before. ]

Ziyue patted her tentacles touched and said [This is the most romantic dream I have ever heard.We will make it happen.I will treat you well, protect you, and hunt hard so that you will grow thick and strong. ]

Zi Xing said with some helplessness [It’s better not to be thick and strong, it feels a bit ugly. ]

Ziyue grinned, [I didn't expect you to pay so much attention to appearance. ]

After more than a month of seabed roaming, Zixing and Ziyue finally chose to settle in a relatively secluded place with few intelligent creatures but many kinds of seashells, shrimps and crabs.

They chose to live in a group of underwater reefs. There are many mosses growing on the reefs, seaweed grows in the crevices of the reefs, and sea shells, shrimps and crabs are plump.The two live at the roots of two adjacent seaweeds, which is very convenient for communication and visits.

The predation techniques of Zixing and Ziyue have improved little by little in practice, until now they can easily catch a sufficient amount of food.So the two decided to set off to find the oath conch.

The vowed conch, with its delicious meat and unique shell, is a favorite delicious food and treasure of the Kraken tribe.

[You two are not crazy, are you? ] A little yellow croaker looked at Zixing and Ziyue incredulously, [Oath conch is a rare treasure that the Sea Monster Clan can hardly obtain easily, how could you two little starfish find it. ]

[Yeah yeah. ] The little black fish then said, [The oath conch is in the very deep seabed, where we ordinary fish can't reach, even if you can withstand the water pressure, how can you catch the oath conch with such a small body? What about coming back? ]

Ziyue replied, "Is there always a way to solve it? We can slowly think about how to catch and how to bring it back. The first problem now is that we need to know which sea area is easier to find the sworn conch. ]

The little yellow croaker thought for a while and said, "Wait a minute, I'll ask my mother, she must know." ]

The little yellow fish swam away quickly while talking, and the little black fish curiously asked [Why are you looking for the sworn conch?Do you want to taste this conch too? ]

Ziyue replied [I heard from another genus group that the sea monsters like the oath conch very much. We want to find the conch and offer it to the master, and then become the master's personal subordinate. ]

Little Heiyu felt that Ziyue was talking in her sleep, [Leave aside the oath that the conch is hard to find, there are many difficulties and dangers along the way and you may die, just talk about the matter of becoming the master's personal subordinates, you know that the master's current personal subordinates have How great is it?I don't think it's possible to rely on just one sworn conch. ]

Ziyue humbly asks, [Then do you have any better ways to help us achieve our goals? ]

Little Heiyu shook his head, [I'm sorry, I never thought about this question, and I really don't have any good ideas at the moment. ]

The little red fish on the side listened for a long time, and said with some admiration, "You are so brave, I hope you can achieve your wish."Of course, safety is the most important thing.Although it is a supreme honor to be the master's personal subordinate, our lives are much more important than this honor. ]

[Okay, we'll always be on the safe side. ]

Zixing and Ziyue chatted with a group of small fishes for a while, and saw small yellow croakers swimming from a distance, accompanied by several large yellow croakers and several large jellyfish.

According to what the big yellow croaker and the big jellyfish said, Zixing and Ziyue kept in mind the sea area, routes, the types of powerful creatures that they might encounter, and a series of precautions, etc., and then said goodbye to everyone and started to walk toward "Kaiyuan" "Advance.

Kaiyuan is a sea area where the legendary oath conch appears the most times.It is located at the edge of Mo's main territorial sea, and it is the deepest sea area here. There are many large and ferocious sea creatures, while the small creatures are mostly poisonous.The sworn conch can rely on its hard shell to survive here, but such weak and defenseless creatures as Zixing and Ziyue can easily become prey and be swallowed.

[careful--]

Seeing a big squid waving its thick tentacles and continuously attacking Zixing, Ziyue exclaimed.

This squid is huge, a hundred times the size of Zixing and Ziyue.Ziyue couldn't figure out why this ferocious big guy wanted to chase after the two of them instead of eating the school of fish.Could it be that there are very few starfish in this area, so you want to take this opportunity for a change?

[There are reefs ahead, let's quickly hide in the crevices of the rocks. ] Zixing shouted towards Ziyue.

After several months of training, Zixing and Ziyue's predation skills have improved a lot, and their speed and strategy when avoiding enemies have also improved a lot.

Using their ultimate strength, the two finally got into the twists and turns of the hard reef before the squid's tentacles entangled them.

The giant squid ruthlessly grabbed at the stone with its tentacles, and Ziyue could still see its greedy and bloodthirsty eyeballs through the cracks in the stone.

Pushing Zixing into the crevice of the rock, Ziyue secretly decided that if the rock was not as hard as the big squid, she would go out and lure the big squid away by herself.Just now the big squid had been staring at Zixing, and didn't attack Ziyue much, so Ziyue's physical strength was now more than that of Zixing who had dodged for a long time.

Zixing tugged Ziyue towards him, [Don't let it see you, it should leave after a while, the two of us are not enough for it to be full, and it shouldn't stare at us to the end. ]

Ziyue turned around, and looked at Zixing carefully in the dark, fortunately, there were no scars on his body.

Zixing saw the concern in Ziyue's eyes, [I'm fine, I'm not hurt, its speed can't keep up with me. ]

[Um.You said that our speed is much faster than before. Is it because we have grown up, or is it because of the sea spirit beads that the master gave us? ]

[There should be both. ]

The size of the two of them has become a little bigger, about five centimeters in length, but compared with the big guys in the ocean, they are still very small.

Thinking about the size of the island, Zi Xing felt that there should be no hope for the two of them.The lifespan of a starfish is not comparable to that of a sea turtle. It is already very good for the two of them to grow to three or five times their current size in their lifetime.

After waiting quietly for more than ten minutes, finally there was no movement of pulling stones outside, Ziyue quietly poked her head out from the crack of the stone, and only let Zixing out after confirming it was safe.

The further downstream, the darker it is, but there is moonlight on the sea surface, and there are also luminous creatures emitting light in the depths of the seabed.

Although the number of such luminous creatures is small and the brilliance is dim, it still feels good to see the stars in this darkness.

[Are we almost at the bottom of the ocean? ] Ziyue observed the surroundings, and it was in line with the environment that Xiao Huangyu's mother said that the oath conch would appear.

[Should be, I just saw a spiral thing sprinting away. ]

Ziyue clapped her hands, [That should be the oath conch!Hey, the enemy is out of the dark, and the sample runs pretty fast. ]

Zixing swam to a green seaweed tree, cut off some slender seaweed with sharp small stones, and then carefully wove it into a net.

Ziyue watched from the side, very amazed, [Do you still have this skill? ]

Zixing handed one end of the woven seaweed net to Ziyue, [When I took the boat with the wind, I think they cast this kind of net to catch fish. Since the oath conch is agile and much bigger than us, Then we have to use a tool to catch it smoothly. ]

[Hmm, you are so smart. ]

Zixing and Ziyue are full of enthusiasm, but in this dark deep sea, it is not easy to find the oath conch, and this kind of conch is extremely rare, so they have searched here for more than a week, but they still have nothing to gain.

Fortunately, Huangtian paid off, and at dawn, Zixing and Ziyue saw the vowed conch walking on the bottom of the sea in the distance.

Nine spikes, the sworn conch is gone!

In order not to disturb it, Zixing and Ziyue approached very carefully.They were hugging and moving forward, with a net woven of seaweed sandwiched between their bodies.

One step, two steps, gradually approaching with bated breath.When they reached a suitable distance, Zixing and Ziyue looked at each other, and the two moved at top speed, covering their heads with the unfolded grass net towards the vowed conch.

Maybe it's because I haven't encountered this kind of catching method before, so the oath conch was caught by the head.But after being blinded for a moment, it began to struggle violently.

Fortunately, Zixing and Ziyue were well prepared, quickly tied the grass knot when it was in a daze, and then dodged to the two sides, allowing the conch to struggle in the grass net.

The seaweed that Zixing chose was after his consideration and testing. The seaweed is very tough, and it takes a lot of effort to bite it hard, not to mention that the conch has no teeth, and the grass net he weaves is dense and dense. The interior should be more difficult to break through.

Ziyue moved a little closer to Zixing, and waited for the vowed conch to be exhausted before dragging it to a small hole in the reef to hide.This is the place they had carefully selected before.
