As Catalina said: The ocean is vast, and it swallows everything.Seventy percent of the planet is ruled by the ocean, and the Krakens are the most low-key, friendly, and indisputable race on the planet, yet the rulers of the most vast country on the planet.They have survived in this deep sea for 10,000 years, and countless dynasties - even the dynasties of the "gods" - have risen and fallen in this 10,000 years, and the once glorious creations of civilization have been lost in the fall, and countless things in it have fallen into the deep sea by various coincidences, and finally become the collection of the krakens.These low-key but curious Krakens are the undisputed collectors of the planet, and they collect almost everything they find in the sea as treasures, presumably due to their ancestral genetics: as early as the Io Chaos Era, the Krakens of the Deep Sea gradually learned about the "world above" by picking up falling objects from the upper layers of the sea, so the Krakens after them always favored the strange things that fell overhead into the sea.Their ability to collect is even amazing to Lily: husky girls usually like to carry all kinds of rocks home at best......
Well, pick it up and collect it at home, but the Krakens of Nasaton have collected something higher than Lily's pile of broken stones!
The collections are arranged chronologically, and the further you go outside, the closer the collection is to the modern age.Hao Ren slowly walked deeper along this "frozen timeline", almost feeling like he was reading the history of this planet.On the most recent shelves, the most common items are various human-made utensils, the latest being a small ring from an unnamed lovelorn girl on the West Coast of the United States, whose owner sadly threw it into the water, and one happened to be in the vault.A little further on, you will see a metal plaque with beautiful floral letters, which is a relic of a shipwreck.Further on, Hao Ren saw torpedoes and artillery shells, as well as periscope parts for submarines and a broken metal nameplate: these things are from World War II.He even saw fragments of the Bismarck's boiler - a collection that Katrina had recovered herself, and when Bismarck sank, the Siren Queen watched the fireworks from the deep water, and finally cut a steel plate from Bismarck's boiler as a souvenir of her observation of humanity.Further on, the collection became even older, and some curious objects began to appear.The logs of the captains of the Spanish merchant ships of yesteryear and the pirate's scimitars are placed together, interspersed with fragments of fishing gear swept into the sea by the tsunami, strangely shaped binoculars, and strange contraptions that look like magic paraphernalia that have no effect at all.Hao Ren's attention was drawn to a cylinder made of white gold, which was intricately carved with a nine-headed monster, a wave, and a six-pointed star.Catriana is like a docent explaining what he sees: "This is the great pirate Bosseba's 'gold finder', the last pirate captain who knew the dark arts, through this special telescope he can see any ship carrying gold from thousands of miles away on the sea, and he is so rich, but in the end the pirate captain is stuck in the captain's room with a chicken bone, and his pirate ship is engulfed by a storm shortly after." ”"It was a time of mystery and darkness," Vivien said, putting a small dagger decorated in gold back on the shelf, "Sailors are the most susceptible to the dark arts, for they are far from land, and therefore from the influence of the Church and the witchers, and the superstitious and daring 'sea people' are always happy to discuss tales of magic and curses."
So after the end of the mythical age on land, the influence of such a thing as 'magic' continued to exist in the oceans for a long time. ”Hao Ren nodded thoughtfully and continued to walk forward along the timeline.He noticed that the shelves on both sides of the shelves had gradually changed from ornate and delicate to crude and crude—he had just passed the glorious period of human civilization and was approaching the more primitive and obscurantist Middle Ages, with tattered fishing nets and old sword fragments becoming the main exhibits on the shelves, mixed with more and more crude items related to magic, and some more surprising historical artifacts.An ugly round stone and a messy pile of wood fragments were placed on a separate stack, next to a sign with the words: Richard, King of Humanity, attacking Cyprus with trebuchets."
Do you know how much these things are worth?"
Hao Ren couldn't help but think of Caterina's earlier statement that the collection was "not very important", and his eyes widened, and he questioned the Siren's values greatly.At first, he thought it was a very secure place when he saw several soldiers around the entrance of the collection, but now he thought it was a wide open place: the Krakens had only four sentries standing guard here, and they only guarded the treasury with an antique iron door!"
Is it important?"
Caterina didn't feel it at all, "Anyway, it's the people of the earthly world who throw away the things they don't want......"
"I think at least half of it was not thrown away by someone else......"
Lily stuck out her tongue, "The shipwreck is all an accident, okay?"
”Catrina wagged her tail slightly, looking dazed: "Probably......
Pretty much one thing. ”Hao Ren felt that he and the Siren Queen could not communicate in terms of values at all, so he pursed his lips, turned his head and continued to swim forward.And after passing over the crude medieval relics, he found that the things on the shelves had become refined again.Humanity was becoming less and less crudely crude, and a fishing fork used by a fisherman became the last human symbol in front of it - of course, according to the timeline, it should be the first human object in the Siren's collection.Anything further back was something that was impossible for human society at the time: delicate machines made of metal, strange contraptions made of crystal, colorful crystalline crowns, delicate canes that constantly shone brightly, and all sorts of other wonderful products that clearly did not conform to the characteristics of human civilization.Hao Ren was stunned for a moment, and then realized that he had arrived at the Age of Mythology.He glanced back, only to find that he had advanced less than a fifth of the way around the long exhibition shelf: almost a fragment of 10,000 years of history."
Humans have only dominated this planet for so long," Vivi quietly looked at the crude human relics and the shiny alien "artifacts", only a display shelf between the two things, the contrast is staggering, "It's amazing, time goes back five hundred years, humans have to pray every night that demons don't come and take their children, go back a thousand and five hundred years, and humans are still afraid of werewolves or blood clans suddenly breaking into the town every day, going back two thousand five hundred years, They still bow down to the cruel alien gods, but now they are the sole rulers of the planet, and their creations occupy only a fifth of the place, yet they have taken over the entire planet on the surface. ”"Those who don't want to make progress will be eliminated after all."
Hao Ren shook his head."
This bow belongs to Artemis!"
Vivien suddenly found something she recognized, it was a shining silver longbow, "......
The bow was lost after Mount Olympus fell into a space storm, and it didn't expect to fall into the sea. ”Lily found a heavy trident with a black iron texture and a faint blue light at the tip on a shelf not far away, and she exclaimed in surprise, "Caterina!
Isn't the Trident your Kraken's equipment, why did you throw it here?
”"That's not the Kraken's model, it's Poseidon's.He tried to force his way into Nasaton, but was trapped at the bottom of the ocean by the warped force field around the starship, and he used his trident as a bargaining chip to negotiate with the Krakens before we put him back," Catriana said, shaking her head slightly, "We are kind to others, but that doesn't mean anyone can bother us. ”Vivien was a little surprised: "Poseidon's trident is with you?"
I didn't know he had lost his weapon - Poseidon was fighting the witchers with his trident at the end of Olympus. ”"Then I don't know, probably he has a lot of tridents, after all, it's a shameful thing, he won't spread it everywhere if he loses his weapon," Catrina shrugged, "The world on land is too chaotic, we don't know much, and we didn't even know that there was a 'god' in the ocean until the bearded man who called himself the god of the sea came to make trouble."
The Kraken doesn't care about this mess. ”After a while, Lily shouted again, "Eh, why is there a sole here?"
”"That's Zeus's slippers."
Lily: The remnants of the gods of Olympus ...... aroused even greater interest, and these ancient artifacts still have some power left to this day, giving a glimpse of the power of the Zeus family in the past.Hao Ren curiously circled between the old antiques, and suddenly, his eyes were drawn to an off-white object that looked like a sculptural pedestal."
Huh?
This thing......
Why does it look familiar?
