Because the Azure Sea is close to the coastline, those who think they are pure sea people disdain to occupy it, so that the Nagas in the Azure Sea can reproduce and enjoy peace here.
Leaving the Azure Sea is the Coral Sea, where many strange marine creatures live, so the sea people still regard the Coral Sea as a natural buffer on the grounds that they do not like the complex seabed landforms here.
For countless years, the various corals that gradually rise from the seabed to the sea surface have made the scenery here beautiful and elegant, but under the sea surface, undercurrents are surging, and countless whirlpools and reefs have also confirmed its reputation as a natural barrier, making outsiders dare not easily enter it.
But for the team led by Sharlena, the luxurious ship only needs to be raised a little higher and stay away from the coral groups that protrude from the sea surface.
Therefore, the team that rushed all the way arrived at the Black Coconut Sea at the scheduled time.
The many black coconut trees growing on the seabed make the ocean currents changeable, but this also gives the crabs living here unique resources.
After entering the Black Coconut Sea, Raymond felt the deceleration of the ship and the changes in the energy of the surrounding environment.
After several days of meditation, he memorized and mastered six new runes, which was considered to have passed a small level.
However, his thinking in his spare time made his doubts more and more intense and he could not get rid of them. Instead, he became more complicated because of too much thinking, making all the clues more confusing, and he could not get a convincing conclusion at all.
Therefore, when Sharonna came to notify him, Raymond simply stopped his meditation and came to the front deck to enjoy the beauty of the Black Coconut Sea.
The Black Coconut Sea, occupied by the crabs, became active because of the once-in-a-decade trade fair, especially the green-shelled crab warriors patrolling and guarding on the sea. It also made Raymond appreciate the style of the sea creatures and feel the prosperity of the sea creatures.
More than three meters wide, the huge crab claws are actually made of metal. The crab warriors running in groups on the sea have poor eyesight. So as long as a sea ship enters, they will immediately flock to it. They will be allowed to pass only after contact.
The Nagas living in the blue sea area did not board the ship because their territory is not far from the Black Coconut Sea. They only stopped approaching when they were close enough to see the Naga emblem on both sides of the ship, and then presented a black sign to let them pass.
Standing at the bow and feeling that the sea ship began to speed up, Raymond was very interested in these crab warriors with hideous faces but good tempers, but Rossetti, who was standing on the left side of the ship, spoke to Sharonna after getting away from these crab warriors. "How friendly have the crabs here always been?"
"They are also allies of the Naga tribe in the Azure Sea. Because they need some resources produced by the Azure Sea, they have become more friendly over the years..."
"No wonder, the crabs in the waters around the Red Sea are quite stubborn and have conflicts with us every year..."
Rosetti had helplessness between his brows when he said this, and continued after sighing. "Although the tribe is not afraid, every conflict will still cause a lot of damage to the tribe members. Especially the wounds caused by their huge tearing force, it will take several years to recover..."
As if she had already grasped the external situation of the Azure Sea, Sharonna, who was following the distant crab warriors, also agreed with the same feeling. "Yes, the toxins on their claws are the most troublesome..."
"Yes. The most troublesome thing about the sea creatures is their huge numbers and the toxin attacks they carry. If it weren't for these factors, the territory of the Red Sea Naga wouldn't have not expanded for so many years..."
Rosetti's slightly frustrated sigh caught Raymond's attention, and he turned around and asked. "The Red Sea Naga should be the most powerful among the Naga tribe, so why haven't they been able to occupy the entire Red Sea in all these years?"
"The Red Sea is a hundred times larger than the Blue Sea, and there are countless sea creatures living in it. How can we occupy the entire Red Sea..."
"Now that Jennifer has found the location of the Well of Eternity, does it mean that the Red Sea Naga have begun to expand outward?"
"How is it possible? Although the Naga tribe can survive in the sea, as upper elves, the most suitable habitat for us is still around the Well of Eternity, and only when the three tribes gather together can the Well of Eternity provide a stable habitat for endless life..."
Rosetti, who had raised her voice in vain, said here, and then she realized her mistake. After saying goodbye, she dragged Samuel beside her back to the cabin.
And Sharonna, who also looked helpless, saw Raymond's serious expression and smiled bitterly. "The ultimate goal of the Red Sea Naga is to open up the space where the Well of Eternity is located, but if we can really settle around the Well of Eternity, it will be a good thing for all the tribesmen..."
"Then how should we deal with the culprit who drove you into the underground plane before?"
Raymond's questioning made Sharona sigh. She stopped looking at him and turned away. After a moment, she said faintly. "The Red Sea Naga will solve it. Moreover, as a member of the Naga tribe, we must put the interests of the entire tribe first, otherwise we would not have survived until now..."
Recalling the little Sharona he saw that year, Raymond, who was touched, could not help but fall silent.
Among the Naga tribe, whose strong men were killed and expelled from the surface plane to the wasteland on the underground plane, Sharona, the only one with royal blood, was still a young girl at the time, but she had to bear the responsibility of the entire tribe.
If it were not for the accidental encounter and the willingness of the Red Marsh Wetland Wizard Academy to accept it, it would be hard to say that the Naga tribe, which had no strong men in charge at that time, could persist until the opportunity to return to the surface came.
As the ship speeded up, the oncoming sea breeze passed by, and the ice crystals that were instantly frozen due to the low temperature actually fell on the front deck, making a ding-ding-ding sound, as if a pair of skillful hands were playing a simple rhythm, which made Raymond more irritated.
"Lord Raymond, if it weren't for your behavior back then, I think we would still have to endure the hardships in the wilderness..."
As if she had noticed Raymond's uneasy mood, Sharonna spoke very slowly, with deep feelings and sighs in her words. "Do you know, when the whole tribe decided to return to the surface plane, I took the elders of the tribe, Heloise and Bartlet, to see the wilderness lake where we used to live, but after going there, I found that it had been occupied by a group of gray-spotted giant lizards, and there was no possibility of getting close..."
Raymond, who turned his head when he heard the sound, found that there were tears on Sharonna's cheeks, and her hands were clasped in front of her chest as if she was a little afraid of the cold.
"Everything my mother taught me in my memory is to follow the rules of the Naga tribe, because only when these rules exist and are followed can the ill-fated tribesmen survive..."
"And when the Red Sea Naga completes the integration of the three tribes, the past hatred will gradually be forgotten, especially the contradictions and past conflicts within the tribe, which will no longer be mentioned..."
Sharenna, who finally turned around at this point, was already full of tears. The sadness in her expression made Raymond feel a strong sense of sadness and unwillingness!
"But this is our fate, and it is also the rules that must be followed in the tribe. Any violator will be spurned and investigated by the entire tribe. The Naga who left the tribe is like water without source and tree without roots, and will not have a future..."
The smile on Sharenna's face while speaking made Raymond very sad for a while.
But since this is her choice and the decision she made, he has no reason to intervene and intervene.
It's just that this way of choosing is not understandable to him, so he explained it with a dull look when he turned around and left. "Then call me when we get to Black Coconut Island..."
