“The Dragon King Krill can digest most rocks and stones, including iron and copper, but the silver deep in the sea is an exclusion. If they swallow the silver, they will die in no time,” Zhang Xiaohou mentioned.

The silver veins in the deep sea went all the way into the Earth’s crust. The silver veins had followed the underground rivers like huge dams.

The Dragon King Krill had made holes in the silver veins, but they had to get rid of most of the entire silver veins to make the Underground Rivers accessible to the sea monsters. The larger sea monsters were too massive to swim through the little holes of the silver veins.

“The silver veins are indeed giving the sea monsters a headache. Are you saying the sea monsters are trying to use our Forbidden Curse to destroy the silver veins?” Zhao Manyan asked. He understood the situation better after hearing Zhang Xiaohou’s explanation.

In the past, humans had always used their intelligence to keep demon creatures at bay. They had also used the demon creatures’ power against them by outsmarting them. Who would have thought the sea monsters would do the same in return?

Zhang Xiaohou now understood why Yang Xiajie’s soul kept warning him not to underestimate the sea monsters’ intelligence!

Humans had spent a long time fending off demon creatures on land, yet they were still stuck in the safe zone in the form of cities. The oceans were a lot bigger than the land. More than half of the oceans remained unexplored.

The sea monsters they had encountered were only the tip of the iceberg.

These unknown species would bring forth a different war. Being alert along the coastline was no longer enough!

The sea monsters were able to conspire against the humans now. Everything might seem calm on the surface, but the sea monsters’ invasion had already begun!

——

Zhang Xiaohou thought he would have to swim in the opposite direction of the Underwater River for some time to locate the silver vein.

To his surprise, the silver vein was right there at the bottom of the ‘well’. It was bigger than the one he had found before. The Dragon King Krill were biting at the silver ore and moving it to other places.

The Dragon King Krill were like slaves without their own will, but they were great in number. Even though they were going to die because they could not digest the silver ore, they were still eating the silver ore recklessly.

“There really is a silver vein here!…” Zhao Manyan exclaimed.

The silver vein was right in the middle of the underground river. As a Water Mage, Zhao Manyan could sense a stronger current on the other side of the silver vein.

Once the silver vein was cleared, not only would the underground river enlarge by tenfold, the water would flow at a quicker rate, too!

“The demon creatures of Mount Kunlun are unable to pose a threat to our coasts because there are countless hordes, kingdoms, and powerful species between Mount Kunlun and our coasts. They would have to pay a huge price just to reach our coasts. Similarly, there are many hordes between the middle of the Pacific Ocean and the Bohai Sea, making it difficult for this kingdom of sea monsters to travel to our coasts. However, things will be different once the underwater rivers are cleared,” Zhang Xiaohou pointed out.

Zhang Xiaohou insisted on finding out the truth. He realized he had made the right decision after seeing the huge silver vein and the underwater river!

“Damn it, the Forbidden Curse is going to land right on the silver vein. It will obviously destroy the silver vein. The sea monsters are trying to trick us!” Zhao Manyan cursed.

Zhao Manyan was now utterly convinced the sea monsters were using them. It was impossible to have so many coincidences in a row.

Deep Sea Silver was an extremely scarce resource, and the Forbidden Curse happened to be targeting the silver vein that was intercepting the underwater river.

In addition, a crazy number of Dragon King Krill were clearing the silver ore. Wasn’t their goal obvious?

The Forbidden Curse might eliminate most of the Dragon King Krill and resolve the danger they were posing to the coasts’ defenses, but once the Forbidden Curse destroyed the silver vein, it would open a door which would result in a war with the sea monsters of the Pacific Ocean.

The kingdom of sea monsters in the middle of the Pacific Ocean would keep coming to the Bohai Sea. The coasts were not the only places they would lose!

The kingdom of sea monsters was targeting the whole continent!

The thought alone was terrifying. Everyone knew the sea monsters were around three times stronger than the demon creatures on land. They were not only stronger physically, but they were smarter, too!

“We must let Mo Fan and Mu Bai know as soon as possible. Holy crap, these sea monsters are going to take over our country!” Zhao Manyan shouted.

They did not dare to stay any longer, and immediately left the water.

——

The sky was already lighting up by the time they reached the surface. The silver-white dawn light sprayed across the calm surface of the sea like a land covered in silver tiles.

“Only eighteen hours left,” Zhang Xiaohou murmured.

“Let’s hope they can make it in time. They better not let us down. Not only is our country in danger, our lives are in their hands too…” Zhao Manyan muttered.

“Brother Zhao, did you get the order wrong?” Zhang Xiaohou asked with a wry smile.

“I didn’t.”

Zhang Xiaohou took out a golden device. It was the military’s communication device that allowed soldiers to fire a signal into the sky when there was no Light Mage around.

“Brother Zhao, the Gravitational Vortex might weaken the signal, so you will have to boost it a little,” Zhang Xiaohou said.

“Not a problem!” Zhao Manyan immediately summoned a special light which almost turned his body transparent. His heart was shining as brightly as the sun!

“Brother Zhao, your Light Element…” Zhang Xiaohou was surprised. Zhao Manyan’s Light Element had changed significantly!

However, a black figure suddenly approached them before he could finish the sentence.

The figure was closing in from behind, moving close to the surface of the sea. It was aiming straight at the back of Zhao Manyan’s neck, like it was delivering a deadly blow.

Zhao Manyan was busy Channeling his Light Spell. After all, he had to construct a Star Palace so the signal could overwhelm the restriction of the Gravitational Vortex.

Most importantly, the enemy was almost undetectable. They did not notice it until it was extremely close to them!

“Brother Zhao!” Zhang Xiaohou quickly stood behind Zhao Manyan and Cast a spell.

A Water Curtain the size of a shield formed in front of him.

However, the black figure was very quick.. An object resembling a sharp spear stabbed at them at a terrifying angle. Not only was it trying to stab through Zhang Xiaohou’s heart, it was going to pierce through Zhang Xiaohou’s neck!
