Chapter 155: We can move forward
"We can't be sure it's all excrement, there may be other marine life," added another scholar.
Hearing this, Artborg placed his palm on the hilt of the sword and injected blue water-attributed magic into it.
Another wave of magic power spread out, and the offshore area was boiling again, rolling up waves tens of meters high, roaring towards the sky. People seemed to be under a waterfall, and could only hear the deafening sound.
Through Artborg's action, Moshe understood the principle of controlling the channel.
The passage was built with magic stone, and it was polished clean to reveal the texture of the magic stone.
If it comes into direct contact with the channel, the magic power in the magic stone may be absorbed by the operator and turn into ordinary stone and sink to the bottom of the sea.
Using the dual media of sword and sand like this can greatly improve the tolerance rate.
Why did Artborg want to manipulate the channel again?
"The commander-in-chief wants to get rid of the things in the passage." Someone explained.
Artborg slowly withdrew his hand, the water magic disappeared, the sea surface returned to calm, and the huge pipe mouth emerged again.
If we ignore the marine creatures that kept surfacing and seemed to be in a state of dizziness, it was indeed a successful attempt.
This time, the scholars were fully armed, wearing hats with gauze veils on their heads, gray overalls, and a pair of anti-pollution elastic gloves on their hands, and they carefully collected samples from the channel.
"It seems that we can basically confirm that a creature called 'sea polluter' mixed with excrement has tightly adhered to the inner wall of the channel." The scholar used his fingers to push away the sample and said thoughtfully, "Sea polluters can be said to be the cleaners of the ocean. Their main food is excrement and algae, as well as some dead insects. In other words, they can eat anything they can chew."
"They usually don't gather in one area, nor do they go near underground passages. What's going on?" After thinking for a while, the scholars came to a conclusion, "We need to think of a way to clean up the passage without using magic."
"What if we use sword energy?" Barrit asked.
"It is not recommended to try." The scholar shook his head and said, "We don't know how much mixture has accumulated in the channel. Once the sword energy is released, if it is not completely cleared out, it may cause backflow and surge. Moreover, the sword energy cannot touch the channel. If a magic stone is damaged, it will affect the entire channel."
The mixture in the scholars' hands gave off a foul odor. People tried not to retreat, but no one took the initiative to help.
"Zandra is probably the only creature that can produce this amount of excrement."
“These are probably just the tip of the iceberg.”
"But doesn't Zandra live on the seabed? How did it get its excrement into the channel?"
"Uh... your description is disgusting. Maybe it's bored and wants to try something new?"
In the translation team, Mattili Clapham looked into Moshe's sparkling light brown eyes and took the initiative to speak: "Sea polluters have intelligence, but not much. When they behave abnormally, it is probably driven by their survival instinct."
Mo Xie digested this knowledge point in an instant. "You mean, something happened in the sea that made the sea worms feel dangerous, so they took plenty of food and hid in the passage built by humans?"
"Ah."
Mattiri was not at all anxious about his current situation of being stuck in the same place. Instead, he stood quietly in the queue, flipping through a book.
"When the underwater passage is unmanned, it drifts naturally on the seabed."
"How is this underwater passage usually maintained? If anything is found inside, it should be cleaned out immediately."
"One of the Western Continent and the Ocean Continent will be in trouble. No, is this world square or round? If there is a continent in the other direction..."
Powerless, without any idea what to do and with nothing to do, these young people who have nothing can only communicate in low voices in the team.
No wonder the God of Creation said the world was going to be destroyed.
If the mixture continues to accumulate, it will eventually fill the channel. At that point, the ocean currents and the activity of the Zandra will stimulate the channel, and a surge will be generated to eject it outward.
That scene...
It seems as terrifying as a volcanic eruption.
The Marquis's power stirred up the entire coastal waters, swinging the passage this way and that, but the sea worms did not escape, indicating that the danger they sensed was far greater than this.
If pure violence doesn't work, how about using seduction?
Just as Moshe was thinking, a familiar voice came from the front of the team.
"Find a way to make them show their heads." Artbolg said coldly, "Barrit, cooperate with us fully."
"Yes."
The commander-in-chief meant... that he could clean up the mixture without damaging the magic stone? !
As expected, he is the youngest Grand Lord in Renekton's history! So handsome!
The knights showed expressions of great reverence, with excitement flashing in their eyes.
Only one person murmured to himself: "Isn't he able to speak?"
Then he got hit on the head, "Shut up!"
"Show your head... let me think about it." Due to being covered in dirt, the scholars were unable to make any movements to cooperate with their thinking.
"It seems that we need to prepare a sumptuous meal for the sea worm swarm. What should we do? We need to collect a lot of ingredients..."
The scholars turned to look at the expeditionary corps, their eyes glowing green as hungry wolves, and they were approaching with their hands rubbing in anticipation.
After receiving the instruction to "cooperate fully", Barritt quickly assigned the tasks. Two thousand knights and magicians quickly dispersed and rushed into the forest to collect "ingredients" such as fruits, algae, and insect corpses.
Savior Arthurs MacIntosh is no exception.
Mo Xie followed behind him, keeping a certain distance, and reached out to pick a bright red fruit.
His movements were fast, but somewhat clumsy, because he was still young and his body had not yet fully developed, so he had to use jumping to make up for the distance.
After another high leap, the fruit in the boy's arms rolled into the pile of leaves.
Mo Xie bent down, picked up the fruit and handed it to the young boy.
Unlike the expected reaction, Arthurs looked at him with a complicated look, pursed his lips and uttered two words: "Thank you."
Mo Xie smiled and said, "You're welcome."
It seems that the temple is really a magical place. It can stabilize the child's emotions in just one week.
Or, did he realize something himself?
The two then continued to search until the others returned to shore.
The method of preparing the meal is extremely rough, using force to compress the ingredients into balls, that's all.
This kind of bait won't work, Mo Xie thought as he looked at the sphere that was only slightly smaller than the entrance to the tunnel.
The best food for the sea worms now is the excrement of the deep-sea giant Zandra. They have to lose their ability to think and be completely dominated by their greed.
Something is missing...
Mo Xie's eyes gradually turned golden, and his spirit fetus continuously generated magical power, which came out of the body and turned into a thin green line, accurately controlling its own state to minimize its presence.
The green line connects Moshe and the sphere. Except for wizards, few people can clearly sense this power.
The moment the sphere was pushed into the water, Moshe injected his magic power into it, and a meal rich in rare nutrients was completed.
"It's coming out!" The scholars who had been watching the underwater world jumped up excitedly. "It seems that they really like this feast. The excrement keeps pouring out... It's really disgusting."
A gleam of light flashed in Atborg's indifferent blue eyes, and the long sword was pulled out easily, instantly condensing into biting cold frost and powerful sword energy.
His left hand was naturally raised in front of him, and he gently swung the sword in his right hand. Several ice-blue rays of light rushed towards the swarm of sea insects at a speed like a strong wind.
A magical scene appeared.
The light seemed to have its own consciousness, accurately hitting the sea swarm of insects, making a crisp sound and forming pieces of frozen ice crystals. Starting from the top of the dirt, it quickly extended to the depths.
When the sound disappeared, the aura around Atborg vibrated, and powerful water-attributed magic overflowed. The ice crystals began to shatter, and the mixture in them turned into nothingness and disappeared into the sea.
A gust of sea breeze blew by, and the stench in the air dissipated, leaving only a strong fishy smell of the sea.
The inside of the passage was transparent and bright, completely different from before.
There is no doubt that they can move forward.
