Chapter 2304 - The Egg of the God of Sea?

Around 10 minutes later, Gina turned towards Mag and patted the submarine as she said, "Boss, the traces are over here. Let's go."

"Mmm. Lead the way please." Mag nodded and drove the submarine behind Gina, who had transformed back into her mermaid form.

Moving forward along the bottom of the sea, they finally stopped at the periphery of the Lantisde's site.

Mag sized up the surroundings. The territorial waters were empty and there was nothing special on the ground. Was this the so-called entrance to the traces of the God of the Sea?

Coming out of the submarine, Mag had to briefly adjust to the sudden increase of pressure. His bones made some crisp cracking sounds as he forced himself to undertake the pressure.

"Other than certain special timings, only the Magical Pearl of the Sea can make the entrance to the traces appear, so the people from Underground City shouldn't have discovered it," Gina said as the Magical Pearl of the Sea appeared in her hands.

A blue beam lit up and there seemed to be a faint shadow of a mermaid dancing within the Magical Pearl of the Sea.

The bottom of the sea trembled and a shiny golden gate appeared in the waters in front of them.

It was a 10 meter tall quaint golden gate. Numerous mysterious words were carved on it and two golden merfolk guards with harpoons were standing on its left and right.

Mag finally understood why Rankster deemed the God of the Sea as a religion. After all at this gate, the merfolk looked like guards guarding over this gate to the traces.

Gina turned to Mag and said, "Boss, I have never been into the traces of the God of the Sea either. I don't know if it would reject your entry."

"Don't worry. It's just an old ruin. The older a thing is, the more powerful it is. This is a weird theory." Mag shook his head with a smile. He only believed a thing would only get more powerful as it aged, just like the Great Old Ones.

Even the Elder Things became increasingly powerful by depending on their technological advancements.

Gina nodded and slowly pushed the Magical Pearl of the Sea in her hands outwards.

The pearl was giving out a glaring blue light and it landed in a small hole right in the center of that golden gate. Just like a key, it fitted perfectly.

The closed golden gates opened inwards gradually and revealed a dark mysterious entrance.

Mag did a quick scan but his consciousness was simply lost within it. He couldn't see what was behind that gate.

"Let's go in to check it out." Mag grabbed Gina's hand and stepped into that mysterious space.

The blue light beamed outwards and Mag grabbed Gina with one hand and grasped his Tian Du sword with the other.

After a brief discomfort, their vision returned and they discovered they were standing on an altar.

This wasn't the bottom of the sea. The sky was exceptionally pale with no clouds and sun. There was only the color white as though an evenly colored white drawing board was placed over the sky.

All they saw was a patch of ruins. The white marble buildings had all collapsed and shattered. White stone pillars, white stone towers, white walls, white floors… Other than the color white, there were no other colors in this world.

This place seemed to have gone through a terrible battle and everything was destroyed.

However, one could imagine what a magical place this was back then, just by looking at these ruins.

The surroundings were pitch silent, making this broken place look eerie.

"Be careful." Mag suddenly pulled Gina into his arms. A black spatial interstice suddenly appeared quietly at where she was standing.

The crack was about an arm's length and looked like an opened zip. It appeared silently and looked harmless.

Mag's leg moved slightly and he kicked a millstone-sized marble at the crack.

That marble seemed to hit on dozens of invisible razor sharp blades when it touched the black crack. It was turned into dust instantly and then sucked away by that interstice.

The whole process was completely silent and the interstice still looked as harmless as before.

Gina gulped and snuggled into Mag's arms. Master didn't lie to her. It was terrifying. Boss made her feel safer.

"Alright. I'll watch out for the spatial interstice, while you check on the magical pearl's unusual movements." Mag reminded Gina, who was hanging onto him with exasperation. This lass liked to wrap her legs around him when she had them.

"Oh." Gina stood up properly again and took out the Magical Pearl of the Sea that had returned to her.

The dot of blue light became even brighter after they entered the traces of the God of the Sea. A little arrowhead even appeared in that crystal ball, as though it was leading them.

"Since it's showing us a way, let's see what's over there first." Mag hugged Gina's waist with one hand as he followed the arrow.

The interior of the traces was huge. Mag and Gina left the altar that they first teleported onto and went through a huge area of ruins. They avoided countless spatial interstices that appeared suddenly and finally stopped at a place that looked at an arena.

The arena made of white marble was also filled with craters all over.

However, judging from the size of this arena, Mag could still sense the greatness of that being who had once controlled this arena.

Gina's mouth was also slightly agape as she stared at this huge arena with shock.

The blue light dot no longer moved and the indicating arrow disappeared too. This meant they should have arrived at the location that the Magical Pearl of the Sea wanted them to be at.

"What is that?" Mag raised his longsword and pointed at a blue egg on an elevated platform in the center of the arena.

It was an oval egg that was about 50 centimeters tall. It was emitting blue light all over and mysterious patterns were all over the eggshell. They looked like they were formed naturally.

Mag and Gina went forward to size up that giant egg. The unusual movements of the Magical Pearl of the Sea seemed to be triggered by this egg.

"It seems to be alive," Gina said softly, unable to conceal the shock on her face.

"It is alive." Mag nodded and agreed with her.

He could sense weak signs of life on this egg, which meant this egg was alive.

An egg with signs of life appeared in a ruin that nobody knew how old it was. This was, without a doubt, weird.

Gina's eyes lit up as she asked Mag, "Could… it be the God of the Sea?"

"Compared to being the God of the Sea, it's more likely to be a Great Old One." Mag grasped his longsword tightly as he looked at that egg with a cautious expression.

Although he couldn't ascertain that the master of these traces was the God of the Sea that the Lantisdeans believed in, he was certain that this was once a great power and their controller might really have possessed the power of a 'god'.

However, it was still destroyed. The entire little world was destroyed.

And, only the Great Old Ones could do, and would endeavor to do this.

Countless years had passed and a thing with signs of life appeared in this ruin.

Compared to the God of the Sea, he was leaning more towards the Great Old Ones.

Crack.

A crack appeared on the eggshell.
