"I have been struggling with whether to tell this secret. I am afraid that if this secret is known by some thoughtful people, it will cause some unimaginable terrible consequences. But I am also afraid that if this secret is not kept, my descendants will suffer. There is no way to resolve the crisis and lives will be threatened.
After thinking about it, I still want to use this conch to preserve this secret. I will put this conch into the sea. If this will fall into the hands of my descendants, it will prove that this is God's will. . "
The old voice was intermittent. At this point, it suddenly jammed, repeating itself like an old tape. Just listening to its movements made people doubt that it would 'crash' in the next second.
Suman and the others' expressions became tense. This seemed to be a big secret. It would be a pity if they didn't hear it. They clenched their fists behind their backs and followed the conch.
Fortunately, the conch paused for two seconds and continued to make sounds.
"I found a bead in the sea. I called it the heart of the sea because it was rolled out from the bottom of the sea by a rising current. When I found it, the halo around it looked like a heart. Swinging around like a beating.
I knew it was not a mortal thing, but I didn't expect it to be so extraordinary. It has a kind of energy that can make people stronger.
Relying on the protection of this bead, I was like a fish in water and helped the villagers increase their harvest at sea. Everyone jokingly called me the God of the Sea. "
"But what kind of sea god am I? I'm just soaked in the light of this bead, but this bead seems to have some strange side effects. I have carried that bead around for a long time, and I always feel that it affects me. character of mind.”
"It seems to be erasing some of my human feelings. Now when I get along with the villagers, I can no longer feel achievement or happiness. Only in the water can I feel as if I am home. The sea gives me A sense of security."
"During that time, every time I went into the sea, there was a small jellyfish following me not far or near."
"At first, I thought it might be a coincidence, but as time went by, I kept seeing the little jellyfish looking at me with an extremely curious look and following me. I started to be a little curious about what happened when I was not in the sea. , what will this jellyfish do?"
"One day, I pretended to leave, and then quietly followed the little jellyfish. I saw the little jellyfish go to the place where I first found the heart of the sea.
In that place, there was a small crack in the ground that I ignored, and it got into the small crack in the ground and hid. "
"I thought it was hidden, but actually, it's not. There are its kin there, but they are just corpses. The bodies have melted a lot, leaving only some fragmented tissues."
"Maybe no one will believe me if I say it, but in fact, it is true. Those stumps have memories. I accidentally raised my hand and touched the fragments of limbs that floated out from the gap. I saw what belonged to that The memory of the little jellyfish’s kin.”
"I also know the origin of Hai Xin. It is not actually a bead. It is the core of the inheritance of this undersea overlord."
"This kind of creature is passed down from generation to generation. At a certain age, the previous one dies and the next one is born. The jellyfish with the core will become a new generation of ocean overlord. It will continue to strengthen itself based on the memory in the core. Day after day, year after year, until it dies and is reborn again, if you have to define it, its method is similar to infinite resurrection, and each resurrection will become more powerful."
"The day I discovered Hai Xin was probably the time when the previous Ocean Overlord died. I took advantage of a loophole at that time. Before the new Ocean Overlord was born, I took away the Hai Xin first. So, The new ocean overlord has no core inheritance and has no idea what he is going to do. He will only look for the core in me based on instinct."
“Knowing the inside story, I should have just returned the core to it, but I still have concerns.
A secret known only to me clouds my judgment.
From the time I first got this core, there has been a voice echoing in my mind. It said it was Tiansha, the ocean overlord, and it wanted me to return this core to the new Tiansha. It can grant me a wish. "
"I asked him to agree to my wish first, and then I would return the core, but it refused, saying that anyone who had made a wish to Tiansha would disappear in the world in an instant if he took another look at the core. I can't help but give it back the core before I can make a wish."
"I have verified the authenticity of this matter, my wife. When she saw this core, she disappeared from my eyes with the wind."
"This ability is too scary. I'm worried that this evil spirit will use this method to deceive the villagers in the future. No one can resist the temptation to realize their wishes. If everyone falls into the trap, our Dayu Village will cease to exist."
"After much thought, I still feel that it would be better if I could tame this evil spirit and turn it into a weapon beneficial to the villagers. In this way, even if I return the core to it in the future, it will not be hostile to the villagers. to attack the villagers, so I asked the villagers to build a Poseidon Temple. Originally, I wanted to directly use the image of Tiansha, but the villagers said that the image was too scary and did not look like a serious Poseidon, so later, I used it. The way..."
"I stipulate that every time we go to sea, we should give Tiansha 20% of what we get. In this way, as long as it is full, it will no longer seek the villagers' ideas. I usually carry Tiansha everywhere, regardless of whether it understands it or not. Teach it some human ways, and it will really be like a cute little pet that can't live without me."
"In the blink of an eye, it's been fifty years. This core has been in me for fifty years. I don't know if it's the influence of these beads or the influence of everyone always calling me Poseidon. I feel like I really have a trace of divinity in my body. It’s like, if I never hand over this core, I will live as a god forever.”
"But, I'm tired of it. I don't have anyone around me who can accompany me. Tiansha is extremely well-behaved around me, but this kind of behavior makes me feel sorry for it. If it weren't for me, it would be in a wider world. In the sea, we grow without any worries."
"Why did I leave this passage? It's because I have made up my mind. I really want to return this core to Tiansha. I don't know if Tiansha will change his personality after he has the core. So, I plan to Leave a way out for you."
"I don't want to explain why. I just want to tell you one thing. If it gets the core and becomes crazy, you will knock down the Sea Temple. If the Sea Temple falls, its strength will be greatly reduced. Enter A period of weakness, so many of you, should be able to subdue it.
After it dies, I have only one request for your descendants: don’t touch its core, don’t be like me and let everything get back on track. "(End of chapter)
