Chapter 414: Undersea Passage

When Vimya and Lolan Hill fell into the sea, they quickly began to traverse it.

The cool seawater was kept at bay by a thin film around their bodies. Above them was the undulating surface of the sea, while below lay an endless expanse of darkness. Various fish darted through the water.

Lolan Hill felt a sense of novelty.

She couldn’t swim, but under the power of the准海之魔女准海之魔女准海之魔女quasi-sea witch beside her, she could exchange oxygen through this thin film, allowing her to breathe freely underwater. The film also protected her from the pressure of the water, preventing her from suffocating or feeling discomfort.

The world grew quiet.

Once submerged, only the faint sound of water could be heard. Other noises gradually faded away, as if they had entered a completely new world.

“Lolan has never been underwater before,” Vimya said, holding Lolan Hill’s wrist and leading the way ahead. Her clear voice echoed.

“Yes,” the young lady nodded. Her silver hair shimmered like a changing light blue under the water.

“The bottom of the sea is very quiet and gentle,” Vimya whispered, then the two continued toward the unusual depths.

The deep seabed was extremely dark, allowing the young lady to see only the immediate surroundings. Beyond that, she relied entirely on her supernatural senses.

A small glowing sphere formed in the young lady’s palm and shot forward.

There was a slight ripple as the sphere burst, scattering into countless light points that illuminated the dark seabed, making the water appear as bright as day.

Swimming silver scales filled the view of both.

These two-meter-long sea fish had deep blue-black dorsal fins and delicate, small silver scales on their bellies. Under the light, they reflected a shimmering silver glow.

They moved in schools, large groups flowing like ribbons.

The tips of these fish were long and slender, much like swords. Upon closer inspection, one could even see tiny serrations along the ‘blade’.

These blue-backed, silver-bellied swordfish swam through the seabed. If any other creature accidentally entered their school, they would be torn apart into fragments and sink to the bottom.

These swordfish moved incredibly fast. In the young lady’s perception, they traveled at about 130 kilometers per hour. A few of the supernatural individuals among them could move even faster, with greater攻击力.

Strong.

They mostly moved by instinct, following the ocean currents.

In Lolan Hill’s perception, a ship on the sea surface emitted a strange heat and fluctuation at its bottom, attracting this group of swordfish closer and closer. If allowed to continue, that warship would be pierced and torn apart by these swordfish.

Indeed, it was done intentionally by that group of pirates. Both thought so, but another problem was now in front of them.

Should they kill these swordfish or lead them away to another place?

The distance to Polychrome Island wasn’t too far; it might just be their holiday mission. If they let them go now, they might have to find this group of swordfish under the sea again later.

Could they only kill them? But their numbers were so great, with tens of thousands of ordinary individuals and hundreds of extraordinary ones, including several Sequence 5 individuals hidden among them.

As the two less ruthless young ladies hesitated, this group of swordfish began to charge towards the sea surface, their silver bodies gleaming like shuttles, vast and imposing.

“Let’s first lead them away; even if we need to kill them, it will be later,” Lolan Hill said to Vimya.

The latter nodded, and then the two separated.

Vimya controlled the ocean currents, forcibly changing the direction of the water flow, making this massive school of fish constantly turn until they formed a huge vortex at the bottom of the sea, barely trapping them.

Despite her not being very strong, only at Sequence 4, she demonstrated powerful control capabilities through her authority over the ocean currents.

Just as Lolan Hill had powerful control and perception over the sky and atmosphere, Vimya similarly had powerful control over the ocean currents and water. This allowed her to defeat large opponents and schools of fish several ranks above her.

On the other side, Lolan Hill穿梭到两艘船下，将那艘战舰底部被人恶意悬挂的球体切下，然后将这个散发热量和波动的道具提在手中，潜入海底深处，重新与Vimya汇合。

于是，在两人的引领下，鱼群紧随其后，开始前往另一个方向。

—

海面上，失去了这些剑一般的剑鱼帮助后，海盗船上的人员逐渐发现不对劲，准备转身撤退。

但那艘被打得冒着黑烟的战舰不依不饶，依然咬在后面。趁着夜色掩护，战舰上的法师再次升空，一个个火球如小型彗星一般，砸落下去。海盗船在一片火光中爆炸，断裂成两截，

Slowly sinking to the bottom of the sea.

One by one, the pirates clung to broken wooden planks floating on the surface of the sea. Soon after, several small boats were lowered from the warship. The soldiers on board swung lassos, capturing and tying up the pirates who had fallen into the water, bringing them back onto the ship.

These evil-doers would be taken to the island court for trial, and then sent to islands with mines to work off their sins.

Hundreds of miles away from where they had dived in, this place was near the colorful island’s waters.

Blue-backed silver-bellied swordfish circled around the seabed, stopping here because of a small warm current vortex.

Plop—

Two girls broke through the surface, reappearing under the sky, but at this moment, the sky was no longer lit by the sun, but by a white half-moon.

Huff.

Lolan希尔 sighed softly, even though her body wasn’t wet, entering the sky and atmosphere always made her feel a peculiar sense of freedom.

Vimya didn’t show much change, only looking up at the stars and bright moon in the night sky.

Perhaps she felt more at ease underwater. Lolan希尔 thought, just like how she enjoyed flying, this sea witch felt most at home in the ocean.

“There’s no need to worry about me, Lolan,” Vimya said as if she could read Lolan’s thoughts.

“Though the bottom of the sea is tranquil, staying too long can make one feel lonely and isolated,” she spoke slowly, then turned to smile at Lolan希尔.

This usually quiet girl looked so beautiful when she smiled, even Lolan希尔 was momentarily stunned.

Vimya walked lightly on the sea surface, her bare feet sinking slightly into the water like stepping on a film.

“Even though I don’t talk much, seeing everyone bustling around together makes me very happy.”

“It’s getting late, we should head back. Otherwise, the others might worry about us.”

Vimya’s hand clasped Lolan’s again.

Under the moonlit night, the two girls walked across the sea, their bare feet feeling the coolness of the water. After the day’s heat dissipated, the sea breeze at night was particularly refreshing, wet droplets evaporating quickly, leaving a cool and invigorating sensation.
