1608 Mother River 2
Before entering the Mother River, Adolf of the Church of Holy Light, the one-eyed sandman Shaliman and the girl Becky were collected by Raymond in the storage ring, and the rose poisonous scorpionfish Mario and the ringed seal Clement finally revealed their true forms.
Rose poisonous scorpionfish Mario is a stone fish that is more than six meters long.
And the ringed seal Clement is an old seal with a fat body but numerous scars on his body.
The gap in the Mother River, which was constantly shrinking and healing, had shrunk by several centimeters when the three were ready, but it was enough for everyone to enter smoothly.
Plop, plop, plop...
After three consecutive sounds, Raymond, who jumped into the golden river, felt the strong squeezing force and the interference caused by the flow rate!
His body was instantly washed out more than ten meters away, and the river water around him, although warm, was like sticky juice, also made his movements extremely slow.
His arms suddenly spread backwards, and the powerful force quickly broke the river water in front of him, and he came to the side of Sen Mario in an instant.
Before entering, Sen Mario was prepared to lead the way in front, but at this moment, there was a deep surprise in his eyes. Seeing Raymond coming to join him, he said in a voice transmission. "The old seal is bigger, so let him lead the way in front..."
The fat ringed seal Clement remained silent, but he swam from the side to block the turbulent water, and paddled with his pair of thick fin-like forelimbs, and began to swim upstream.
Golden river water. It is impossible to know its huge power before entering it. After the ringed seal Clement led the way in front, Raymond, who followed behind, had time to observe the situation in this mother river.
Although the golden river water is in liquid form, it is not composed of the basic substance "water", but like some kind of high-concentration viscous liquid. It is also highly corrosive to outsiders.
The body surface has double force field protection, but Raymond can only push the river water away by ten centimeters.
Only the spindle-shaped old seal seems not to be affected too much in this mother river. At first, it moves slowly because of caution, but as Raymond and Sen Mario adapt to the environment, he gradually increases his speed.
As a result, when they are in the mother river, their perception cannot be released out of the body, and even if the golden river water looks quite clear. But the range of vision is not large. The naked eye can only see the situation within ten meters around them.
Therefore, even if Clement's speed can continue to increase in such an environment, because the range of vision is suppressed, his speed begins to decline after reaching the highest, and finally maintains a speed of 20 kilometers per hourglass.
Unlike them, Raymond turned on the visual assistance of the chip after the speed stabilized, and with the help of its spectral filtering ability, his field of vision was expanded to about three times the original, which allowed him to basically see the general situation of this golden river.
The height is only about 100 meters at most. The narrowest part is only about 40 meters, but the shape of the entire river channel has always remained elliptical, much like the blood vessels in the human body.
The river water is turbulent and there are many undercurrents in it, so only the water flow speed in the middle of the river is relatively stable. Therefore, when Clement's speed stabilized, Raymond checked the outer wall of the river channel when the water flow was slow.
It seems to be a material with extremely toughness and elasticity. When touched, it can penetrate half a finger into it, but because it cannot be further explored and cannot be destroyed, Raymond cannot determine its thickness in the end.
And as the three people continued to go upstream. The many turns and sudden vertical drops in the entire river channel caused the water flow speed to change continuously.
But as time passed, something would appear in the river from time to time.
Or broken objects, or fragmented objects, and even some creatures that seemed to be phantoms.
It's just that these things are hard to touch, and under the influence of the water flow, only a residual image can be seen, and then they will quickly disappear from sight.
Raymond, who tried to grab it, felt the powerful pressure contained in it when he was about to touch an object. The shocking feeling that seemed to tremble his soul made him give up the idea of forcibly obtaining it.
Sen Mario, who was following the huge body of Clement, the ringed seal, saw all of Raymond's attempts, and was quite impressed by the tentacles that his left arm could differentiate into. After he stopped trying to obtain the items in the river, he sent a message. "Raymond, these objects don't necessarily exist in the Mother River. What you see may just be its projection..."
"Just now, the object felt a strong pressure when it approached. Could it be that the projection also has such an effect?"
"Not necessarily. Objects that are drawn into the Mother River from the outside world will eventually fall into the Sea of Time and Space. Whether they disintegrate depends on the strength of the object itself..."
Speaking of this, Sen Mario suddenly swung his huge fish tail and wrapped a tiny object that just brushed past his body with his front fins, and then handed it over. "Look at this, it seems to be the limbs of some powerful creature..."
The object caught by Sen Mario's front fins was a bit huge for Raymond, almost equal to the length of his entire arm.
It was just shaped like a finger bone, and its surface skin had turned light gold due to the infiltration of river water, but its end seemed to be quickly cut off by a sharp weapon, exposing the white cross section, and it contained some kind of energy inside, which made Raymond feel a weak pressure after he took it.
"This should be the skeleton of some giant creature, probably cut off and lost in the conflict, and finally swept into this mother river..."
After explaining, Sen Mario slowed down his swimming speed a little, and after making the river water on the side that he blocked visible to Raymond, he signaled Raymond to turn his eyes over.
On the other side, many strange creatures appeared, floating in the river. Although they were also heading downstream with the flow of the river, their speed was not consistent with the speed of the water. Obviously, they had the ability to resist the water flow.
Moreover, these faces seemed to be unable to see the existence of Raymond and others. Even if they occasionally approached, there was no abnormality. However, there was no spirit or luster in their pupils in the sunken eye sockets, just like the eyes of a dead fish.
Clement, the ringed seal in front, seemed to be unaware of the changes around him and was still going upstream at the original speed.
However, these strange faces were also carried away by the river after a while because of the speed.
Raymond, who had seen many strange phenomena, had a certain immunity to the objects and these inexplicable existences in the river.
As time passed, the river channel gradually closed, the speed of the water flow became more violent, and the powerful squeezing force became more and more huge.
As the river channel narrowed, Raymond also saw many phenomena that looked like gaps.
The gap with a diameter of only a few meters caused many whirlpools to form in the golden river water in the river channel, and the more it advanced, the more it would be affected by the suction force of these whirlpools, causing Clement in front to slow down.
The temperature of the river water also rose rapidly, and particles of various shapes appeared in the originally clear river water.
These tiny but obtainable particles surprised Raymond after he checked them, because they contained extremely rich energy of various systems, as if they were "extracted" from the river water.
And Sen Mario, who was beside him, finally transmitted the message after a long silence. "Raymond, if you go upstream to its source, it should be the area occupied by the thousand-headed bird. Remember that when such a vortex reaches a very dense level, you can choose to leave this mother river, otherwise you can only follow me to the area where the thousand-headed bird is..."
