Rebirth of The Strongest Celestial

Chapter 160: A Drowned House 3

SKY Ocean hunters' pod swims into one of the Seaweed buildings it is marked by large flashing symbols that indicate what can be found inside. The store's general dealer is a Merman a type of merfolk, not typically found in the Barren Sea for a number of reasons. Still, SKY Ocean Hunter lets it go he is the only dealer in the mall with what they need. This is because trade in the Barren Ocean is lacklustre in general the Barren Ocean is living up to its name.

BABYMAKERXCREAM uses her simple sign to drive a hard bargain with the store owner. She has a way to be obstinate even when she can't communicate it properly. Still, the savings of two silvers is no small thing, goods are overpriced for a reason and getting any merchant to give a discount talks a lot of skill. They eventually get the converter. The device is a small item placed in the miscellaneous slot. It allows gorgon to breathe sea water, in truth it uses magic to separate the sea from the salt and they breathe water like normal but most people just know its works, They don't really care how.

With the converter secured they can travel the Deep Waterways, most seafolk use small vessels to travel the waterways. The slowest waterway is one hundred and twenty knots fast. Being an artificial construction that are poorly maintained most waterways have rapids and whirlpools that suck one to the wrong end of the Barren sea or another ocean altogether. SKY Ocean Hunter knows how the ancients travelled the waterways which were invented before undersea vessels. Most underwater vessels were invented in response to the waterways.

Magmaheart signs, "Are you sure about this guys," soft reds dart over her hands as she panics a bit, she isn't the only X2CU and BABYMAKERXCREAM also have suddenly got a lot more hints of red all over their bodies.

SKY Ocean Hunter signs, "As long as we work together we will make. This is how our people travelled the Waterways before conventional vessels were invented. Learn to live a little embrace the Odyssey." SKY Ocean Hunter interlinks with his pod they are meant to work together with control their direction only by working together will they reach their destination safe and unhurt.

Calypso with her arms locked behind her back with the others has to use the messaging system of the game. "Are you sure we shouldn't practice first a bit?" This is more complicated than doing a three-legged sack race. Plus if they fail they could lose levels. Everyone is also in on the message and after a round of flaccid concerns that are all batted away by Sky Ocean Hunter.

He signs, "To all them sometimes you just have to leap and have faith." This isn't his original thought it is the matriarchs advice to him. Naga's act first, goes through the motions then maybe when they are done will ask for help. SKY Ocean Hunter lets loose a Naga song it is not as deep as whale songs but it's soothing to his pod. Like being in the midsts of pow wow during a rainstorm. The song moves to unite them as he bellows low they go down. The rapid clicks go left and pops are right. The group twist tails fighting currents so strong they have swept away entire generations in moments. The move do fast Magmaheart closes her eyes listen to SKY Ocean Hunter. She has never heard anything so beautiful.

McQueen says, "focus Magma! You act as if you have never heard Shakespeare in the original Klingon." McQueen loves old science fiction shows and sometimes quotes from them. The group is thrown into a series of tight turns that require them to skirt the edge so If the waterway. If they were in a conventional vessel they would simply continue forward. The group is barely able to one another slip and breaks are quickly corrected by locking tails

The song that SKY Ocean Hunter is singing vibrates through them it is as much about hearing what he is singing as it is about feeling it. By the time they arrive, they are thoroughly worn out. SKY Ocean Hunters' voice hoarse from singing for hours. They have travelled far into the ocean floor. In front of them is the Great Barren Reef, being ten kilometres deep it is completely lit up by organic and ocean current power generation. The Mobile energy refineries look like giant sea slug sucking in ten of thousands of litres of the ocean and releasing heat and energy for the city to use.. SKY Ocean Hunter Points to three Buildings on the Reef structure. It is shaped like a Harpoon with a net attached to it with a tower behind it. The net like building holds an undersea garden that is at least one square kilometre wide.

SKY Ocean Hunter signs, "Please be mindful of where you are, This is the Drowned House, The Home of the Hunters, We are wave and tide, Endless is this house as is the ocean, This is our home welcome to Hunter Spire Castle, Our families Stronghold." The light shows he produces dazzles them as much as his words. The light show wasn't only for them since have arrived he has been pulsing blue only when a faint barely noticeable green appeared did he move forward with his pod. The girls still taking in the sights of the Great Reef took a while to recognize that it is a completely artificial structure. The geothermal veins provide heat thorough out the entire city and beyond. Naga of all kinds go about their business it is a kaleidoscope of laughter, discussions and trading.

SmittenKitten69 who has been quiet most of the journey can't help but exclaim now, she lights up like a rainbow as a former combat engineer. The Castle is an anomaly of grace and grandeur yet the Spire itself serve as a defensive fortification. She can see the various portholes that cover it in a beautiful yet functional pattern. The Spire could probably fire at anybody regardless of the position she wonders what kind of fortifications it uses. She looks around there are smaller spires on the edges but this one is in the centre. She could see the city was built around it. SmittenKitten69 signs to BABYMAKERXCREAM, She has to come closer to not be seen by the group of Nagas coming towards them from the spire. "Isn't this THE castle?"

BABYMAKERXCREAM Signs, "What do you mean?" Feeling a bit frustrated and also released the need to be respectful as the Other Naga are a procession of some kind. They use the message system again. "The castle? I don't know it just looks like any gorgon fortress design why?" To her it's a really stiff member if she was in a less formal situation she would probably make a couple of dick jokes.

The Nagas are dressed oddly they are wearing ceremonial royal armour typical scale plate is almost indistinguishable from normal scales. Ceremonial armour like theirs recreates Tsunamic design Features like bone gold wings and whips that have any tips shaped like dragon heads. Its typical for Royal sea houses to have the Rare and beautiful Sea God Armour sets.

SmittenKitten69, says, "Look carefully, I think that is Rakor or at least what's left of it. Look there that's the Sea God Eye, over there the library of Andria and that garden must be Lantian Fields those are only found around the Spire of" The Naga's arrive in a formation similar to how planes fly at the lead is the First Minister. His Green and Purple name indication he is special even amongst NPCs'. The light starts dimly and remains submissive the glows of the guards behind are also slow but also constant and yellow.

First Minister Raider signs, in a perfunctory and indolent manner using only low colours. "Crown Prince we did not expect you so soon." The First Minister had not expected him at all plus with the Drowned House of Isekal here things could go very wrong. This is a delicate time and he doesn't want one of the Crowned interfering. So he mutes his colours as a Supreme Being this Crowned Prince is more understanding nothing like his sister and cousin.

SKY Ocean Hunter mutes his colours to this leech! He is but one of the many things he will change a dull almost imperceptible and rude purple, "My business is with the Matriarch, Raider. Perhaps instead of worrying about which one of us is here you would take your responsibilities more seriously and help our people." This has been a sore spot since he started playing the game like most fantasy settings the Naga use an outdated form of taxation that is hard on the people. However even after becoming crowned his pleas to the First Minister and that bloated Octopus were like Krill to a whale. Those two are by in large the reason they didn't start in the Barren sea but rather Pike.

The First minister flashes an angry white before pulling it back controlling himself he signs, "As the Crown wishes" He swims back to one of the Offices shaped like half a shipwreck.

SKY Ocean Hunter looks back at his pod all bright with surprise, he is flooded with signs of 'A crown prince? How? When? Why?' They all knew he was part of a Drowned House but there are Drowned Houses then there is The Drowned houses. Then there is Sunken Ocean, a legendary Drowned House having had the most kings rise of any Drowned House. Direct Decescendents of the Sea God, Primes in all things. Also No great house has fallen further than them
