"Kraken's collection?"
Hao Ren was stunned for a moment after hearing Caterina's words, "These drifters you picked up from the sea?"
”"It's not just drifters," the Siren Queen blinked, "it's something that will surprise you—how's it, do you want to see it?"
”Before Hao Ren could say anything, Lily had already jumped over: "You have to see, you have to see!"
Landlord, let's go over and take a look......"
Hao Ren had to press Lily's head hard with his hand to stop the husky arching forward, and nodded to Catriana with interest: "If you don't mind being open to us outsiders - of course I'm interested." ”"It's not too much of a secret place," Caterina smiled and turned slightly, "the things that people in the original world of the earth didn't want were just collected by us.Follow me, the entrance to the storage vault is nearby. ”Hao Ren, Vivien, and Lily followed behind the Siren Queen, and they bypassed the bustling palace square and the old city wall, which was still a construction site, and there were fewer and fewer ordinary krakens around, and the area ahead was exceptionally quiet, while the battle maids with tridents patrolling back and forth on both sides of the road and the Siren warriors in the form of giant skin shrimp were increasing.Eventually, they arrived at a building that looked like an entrance to the subway, which seemed to be a sloping pipe peeking out of the ground, and at the entrance was a heavy black iron sluice with a ring of glittering water gems around it, and several heavily armed sentries roamed around the sluice, and the festive atmosphere of the city did not spread to the place in the slightest.Hao Ren blinked, "Didn't you say this wasn't a secret place......"
"It's not very secret, but there are still necessary guards," the Siren Queen beckoned to the guards at the door, and the sentinels saluted respectfully before going to open the sluice, "Maybe the people on land have forgotten about these things, but for us, these are the best collections." ”A string of bubbles erupted from around the sluice, and with the sound of squeaking machinery, the heavy gate slowly opened to both sides, revealing a glimmering passageway.It seems to lead to the depths of Nasaton.Katerina swam ahead of the three and led the three into the "treasure house" prized by the Krakens, and upon entering the passageway, Hao Ren noticed that there were many intertwined pipes on the walls and ceilings around him, and some glimmering lines were hidden behind them.Catriana explained the place: "All the machines in this tunnel have broken down, and now I think the ship was crashed when it crashed here.Later, we emptied the clutter in the mechanical cabin, patched up the holes, and turned it into a storage warehouse. ”The road ahead suddenly opened up, and an underground space of astonishing size appeared in front of Hao Ren's eyes."
Over the past 10,000 years, countless strange things have fallen into the sea, the first ones were lost by aliens, and then humans began to move in the ocean, and their things accounted for the majority.The number of lost items that have fallen into the ocean is staggering, and the Kraken is a very curious species, and the sisters will pick up the most interesting things when they go out to play, and that's how the anchors, mines, and propellers you see in the city come from.Over time, there were more and more of these things, and we regularly threw some of the less interesting things into the trench, and the most interesting things were hidden in this collection. ”The huge underground space still faintly shows the appearance of the old mechanical cabin, and there are still traces of pipes and fixed tenons on the steel walls that extend out on both sides, but now the mechanical cabin has been emptied, leaving the open space full of staggering debris.Countless shelves and stacks are neatly stacked, with about three meters of aisles between them, and each stack is lined with eye-catching signs.Hao Ren couldn't help but be dumbfounded when he saw all this, he realized that this was probably the richest exhibition hall on this planet - a full 10,000 years of history, the entire planet's ocean collection, including the lost property of all races, including human aliens, were all piled up in this place, divided into categories, and neatly organized!
Any naturalist or collector who sees this scene will immediately faint with excitement!"
This ......"
Hao Ren opened his mouth, but the first question that came to his mind was "Eh, why did you suddenly remember to show us this?"
”Although this treasure hall is not a confidential place according to Caterina, there should be no reason to open it to outsiders.Although Hao Ren has a good relationship with the Krakens, there should be a special reason why the Kraken Queen suddenly brought him here to visit.Sure enough, Catrina raised her hand and pointed to the depths of the collection, where a kraken was poking its head out from behind a large pile of debris, and it turned out to be Nangong's wife Elsa."
Elsa's request," Catalina smiled, "she said you should be interested in these things—about what has happened in the history of this planet, and how the alien races have changed over the past 10,000 years, and if you're investigating, the Kraken's collection can be of some kind of help." ”Hao Ren suddenly realized.The Siren Queen didn't know what he was doing, but she probably knew that he was very concerned about the history of civilization, and that he and Vivien had been actively investigating the alien situation on Earth."
Well, are you interested in these things?"
Elsa swam from behind a row of shelves, followed by Nangong Invincible, "I haven't been here for a long time......
I remember my favorite place many years ago, and I found at least ten items here. ”"Interested, so interested!"
Hao Ren rubbed his hands and looked at the items from various historical periods and races around him, his eyes were shining, "Even if I can't study these things, just looking around is enough for me to blow for half a year!"
This......
Eh, why didn't you come in March and May?
”Nangong Invincible shook his head: "They are taking care of Doudou outside, and they don't have much interest in this place." ”Hao Ren dragged Vivien and Lily to the neat shelves and stacks, as if browsing a period of solidified time.Lily's eyes widened, and she carefully clamped her tail for fear of damaging any of the precious artifacts here: "Do you know all these bats?"
”Vivien looked at the historical relics that had been lying under the water for some unknown number of years, and replied casually, "How can we all know each other......
But there are many things that can roughly determine the age and provenance.For example, this plate should be from three or four hundred years ago, from Europe. ”Vivien pointed to a delicate white porcelain plate that sat alongside two vintage flintlock pistols, all of which were kept as clean as new despite their age, thanks to the Kraken's special embalming treatment.Catrina saw these things and said casually: "In 1647, a French merchant ship encountered pirates on the high seas, this plate is one of the captain's collections, and that captain happened to be one of the few humans who knew the dark arts, so his obsession after his death remained on this porcelain, a small plate, which caused three pirate ships to sink one after another, until it finally fell into the sea with the last ship, and no one ever fished it up again." ”Hao Ren was surprised: "Do you understand black magic or let pirates kill you?"
”"When you can't chant the incantation as fast as the bricks fly, all magic is nonsense," Lily said with a look of great vigour, hugging her arms, "Didn't the bat be knocked down by my two bricks in the first place......"
"How many times have you said it, don't mention this stubble!"
”Vivien glared at Lily, "Didn't I get malnourished in the first place!"
And I've lived for 10,000 years, and I've never seen a werewolf throw bricks, and I suddenly didn't fit into your way, okay!
”Catherine looked at Vivien and Lily curiously, but didn't ask anything, just pointed to the shelves that were far away: "These shelves are arranged by age, and there are separate labels for human and alien creations.See for yourselves, you will probably find something useful to you. ”"Anything about witchers?"
Vivien asked casually.Catriana nodded, pointing to a corner of the collection, "The sea is vast, and anything can be swallowed up by it.The earliest witcher relics were in that direction, including the great bow that had shot down the solar ship and the sword that had slashed Hydra. ”Hao Ren was suddenly in awe of the krakens: What kind of collector does this have to be!
