Chapter 259: Enter

There was a crack in front of them. The crack was very long, and it was impossible to see the end at a glance. The weak light on the stone wall extended all the way into the distance.

Heath was extremely surprised. ‘There’s still a road ahead?’

It was originally a small hollow area like a cave, but he did not expect it to be so long.

‘Where does this path lead to? Is there another exit?’

After thinking for a moment, Heath turned back to look at the Sea Monster Fishes that were still gnawing on the ground outside. Heath decided to swim in with his tail.

Since he wouldn’t be able to get out for a while, he might as well go in and take a look.

The small fish swam through the underground crack. The swaying fish tail caused waves in the water.

As he swam forward, Heath looked around.

The geological structure underground was very complicated. It was not strange for there to be faults and cracks, but it was rare to see such a long crack.

How was it formed? Was it a volcano? Or was it an earthquake?

After swimming for more than ten minutes, Heath finally came to the end of the crack.

There was nothing at the end of the crack. It was a very common dead end. There was a layer of grayish-brown wet mud on the wall, and a circle of Sea Billow Stones was flickering beside it.

He estimated that the distance of this crack was probably more than a thousand meters.

“Heath, the spiritual power of the Siren has gone far away.” At this moment, Nina’s voice sounded.

Finally gone?

“Okay, I got it.”

After hearing that, Heath didn’t stay any longer. He glanced at the wall in front of him that was covered in mud and swam back with his fish tail.

However, after swimming back a few meters, Heath seemed to have thought of something and swung his fish tail over again.

“What’s wrong?” Nina asked.

Heath did not answer. Instead, he swung his fish tail and quickly came to the end of the crack in front of him. His gaze fell on the grayish-brown mud at the end.

He stared at the mud for a while, and his pair of fish eyes suddenly widened.

As if he had seen something incredible, he suddenly exclaimed, “Fourth System Earth Fill!”

Nina was puzzled. “What’s that?”

Heath explained excitedly, “It’s a geological component.”

Nina had a strange look on her face. “What’s so special about it?”

Heath explained simply, “This geological earth fill is a type of artificial earth fill. It’s usually formed by artificial activities. Think about it. This is the deep sea, but these are artificial earth fill. Have you thought about it?”

Nina thought for a moment and suddenly said, “You mean… someone has been here before?”

Heath said, “I’m afraid it’s not just that…”

It was impossible for someone to grab a handful of soil and run to such a place in such a deep sea and scatter the soil here, right? Moreover, this kind of geology was usually caused by artificial large-scale activities.

In other words…

“Aramsted!”

“Aramsted!”

The two exclaimed in surprise at the same time.

They were in the deep sea, but traces of man-made activities had appeared. It was hard not to link them to the legendary ancient civilization.

Nina said in surprise, “Quick, go and find out if there are any clues.”

Without Nina saying anything, Heath had already started to move.

He dived near the mud layer and used the Wizard’s Hand to dig at the soil on the ground.

There were two types of shapeshifting spells. One was a conventional shapeshifting spell, and the other was a malicious shapeshifting spell.

The conventional shapeshifting spell was to change the shape and structure of the creature while retaining its biological abilities, so that the creature would not lose its ability when its shape was changed.

The malicious shapeshifting spell was to completely change the structure of the creature, so that the creature would lose its original ability. For example, the prince who had turned into a frog mentioned before was really just a frog after he turned into a frog.

Of course, what Heath used on him was a conventional shapeshifting spell, and his own ability was still intact.

However, when he cast the spell, he still did his best to reduce his mana consumption and spiritual force fluctuations. Now, he didn’t know if the Siren had gone far, so it was better to be careful.

Cha cha cha! A clear sound echoed in the tunnel.

The invisible Wizard’s Hand seemed to have turned into a small shovel, slowly moving the soil on the ground.

Not long after, Heath had dug a one-meter-long hole in the stone wall, but there was still soil behind it and there was no end to it.

Seeing that, Heath was not worried. Instead, he was happy.

So much man-made soil was enough to prove that the soil was definitely not a coincidence. There must be something down there, and the scale of this thing was probably not small.

Time passed, and Heath continued to dig.

In the blink of an eye, a few hours passed.

The originally small pit had been extended into a long and thin tunnel. In these few hours, Heath had dug dozens of meters down.

Finally, when the excavation reached a certain point, resistance suddenly came from the Wizard’s Hand.

Heath’s eyebrows moved. He quickly controlled the Wizard’s Hand to push away the soil below. When the soil was pushed away, a hard stone slab could be vaguely seen below.

The stone slab was green-blue in color. The surface was smooth and flat. One could tell that it had been carefully polished. There was also a layer of complicated and intricate patterns on it. It looked like a mermaid, but there were a pair of wings on its back. It sat on a reef with its long and big tail and stared into the distance.

Heath was shocked.

Nina cheered, “I found something!”

She could not help but come out from the ring, her eyes shining as she stared at the patterns on the stone slab. “Siren’s emblem, it’s Siren’s emblem! It’s really Aramsted! It’s really Aramsted!”

Like Everett, the Siren was one of the 16 Ancient Gods, also known as the Sea God.

It was said that Aramsted once ruled the Sirens, and because of that, the emblem used in Aramsted’s civilization was also the Siren.

“Quick, Heath, go down and take a look!” Nina shouted excitedly.

Heath cleared up the surroundings and spread his Wizard’s Forcefield down. However, as soon as the forcefield was extended, it was resisted. It was as if an invisible wall had completely blocked his forcefield. Apparently… there was a barrier here.

Nina also directly crashed into the stone slab, trying to use the advantage of a spirit body to pass through the wall. However, the same wall-piercing spell that was always effective was also blocked here. Apparently, this kind of barrier was also effective against spirit bodies.

Heath frowned. “What a troublesome enchantment.”

Nina hurriedly said, “Let’s see if we can break it. Haven’t you always been good at this?”

Heath nodded and opened his spiritual forcefield to cut into the stone slab.

As the spiritual tentacles extended, the various runic structures in the stone slab also took advantage of the current situation in front of Heath.

The runic structures used in the stone slab were mostly the structures of ancient runes. However, the modern runes were originally evolved from ancient runes. Some basic meanings, functions, and principles could still be deduced.

With this knowledge, it became very easy for Heath to unravel it.

In no time at all, Heath controlled his spiritual tentacles to wreak havoc on the runic structures inside the stone slab, tampering with the runes inside, erasing the runes, and so on.

Soon, a layer of faint light flashed on the stone slab and lit up a rune. Immediately after, this rune flashed twice, like a lightbulb without electricity, quickly dimmed down.

Then, Heath once again activated the Wizard’s Forcefield in the direction where the rune had dimmed down.

Crack!

A crack appeared on the stone slab. The crack was not big, about an inch long. It was just enough for the little fish, Heath, to pass through.

He immediately waved his tail and darted through the crack…
