Chapter 450 "Dark Deep Sea Treaty"
"Oh wow, what a coincidence."
Colin said casually after hearing this.
Without having to think too much, one could roughly tell that this Emperor-class deep-sea battleship had probably been heading this way before it came in this time...
I just don't know if the elite team that sneaked into this place is still here.
The Queen of the Sea Siren was also a little surprised. She turned to look at Colin and said, "Then...should we let them come over?"
This is a famous war machine...
Under normal circumstances, they would never let these things in.
After all, the relationship between the two sides can't be said to be loving, but it can be said to be incompatible.
First of all, they had some conflicts with those pseudo-humans , and they were quite serious ones. For example, some of their people had been poached before, and they wanted to seek revenge on those pirates...
And it was this Federation that stepped forward to stop and intimidate them.
Although later on, there was a certain degree of cooperation between the Federation and another "Sea Siren Queen".
There was some easing of race relations, but not much.
Secondly, even if the relationship eases, if these things get close and they turn hostile, if we’re not careful, this place and the holy land might be taken back to make fish soup.
However, judging by what the agent said, it seems that this thing came because of him?
That……
As the Queen was hesitating about what to do, she suddenly heard the voice of the Agent...
"My suggestion is to reject the request, have them stop outside the cordon, and we'll go there ourselves..."
Colin saw the Queen's concerns and did not intend to embarrass them.
Although he rarely comes here, he knows some information about the place through the information provided by the "arsonist" and others.
I know that no matter whether those guys are hostile or not, it would be inappropriate to let them go.
"Just do it Mr. Bonfire's way."
The Queen of the Sea Siren gave her orders to her subordinates, and after they left, she said sincerely, "Thank you for your understanding."
"nothing……"
Colin waved his hand and continued, "By the way, what's this 'pseudo-human' thing? Why is it called a 'pseudo-human'?"
As he spoke, he couldn't help but think of the group on Earth...
That group of guys are still living there like gangsters. Often when someone's family is about to die, they will take over the body and perform a "resurrection", inheriting the body's former identity and so on.
It is difficult for ordinary humans and even officials to discover their situation.
Colin couldn't tell whether this situation was good or bad...
But at present, because of this situation, the family that should have fallen apart has also come back to life.
He suspected that it might be some group of inmates who had reformed and turned over a new leaf, but he wasn't sure.
However, without waiting for further thought, the Queen thought for a few seconds after hearing his words, and then said, "They have tainted their genes to a certain extent. Over a long period of time, due to the combination with various abnormalities, they are no longer so pure..."
"Damaging genes?" Colin asked in surprise.
The queen nodded and opened her mouth, but then shook her head and said, "I can't really tell you the details. I'll go there with you in a moment. Once you meet them, you'll understand what I mean."
"good."
Colin began to feel a little curious about how serious this so-called genetic pollution could be that the mermaids could actually say that they were not human.
The four-member team didn't seem to know much about this aspect. Their mission during this period was, at most, to investigate some floating "ancient" buildings. They hadn't come into contact with any real humans in "World Number-4"...
All we know is that the "Sea Siren", that is, this group of mermaids, think they are human.
The company seems to recognize this.
In other words, if you think you are human, the company will say: You are right.
They even have the means to transform and degenerate a higher life form, no, to assimilate it into a human individual and issue an ID card or something like that, not to mention mermaids or something like that...
As for why mermaids, who are human beings, have a mouth full of sharp teeth and other limbs beyond the generally known cognition, such as fish tails, we cannot go into details.
From another perspective, if we look at it from their perspective, they probably have similar confusions.
"The term 'pseudo-human' probably has something to do with the humans over there not taking mermaids seriously. There must be some emotional reasons behind it..."
"Of course, there could be other reasons. After all, the mermaids never called the pirates 'pseudo-humans' when they were talking to them."
"However, given the company's attitude... 'pseudo-humans' should also fall within the scope of humans."
Colin's mind flashed, and he made a rough guess.
…
A few hours later, in an open sea area in front of the "Deep Sea Giant King" battleship, Colin and his companions, sitting in a boat similar to a submarine but significantly more spacious , met up with the support team sent by the battleship...
Then, Colin finally saw the so-called "pseudo-human"...
At a glance, apart from noticing that, perhaps due to the environment, those people's bodies were a little slender, and some minor differences, there seemed to be nothing wrong?
"Seems like everything is alright? Huh?!"
When Colin was surprised, he suddenly heard that there seemed to be something wrong with these people's bodies?
First, I always feel that besides the heart, there are other places with a heart-like pumping sound, and there are multiple sets of life breaths in one body...
Colin took a deep breath and could smell something like fungus.
Then, his eyelids drooped slightly, and his pupils changed:
"Fuck, is this guy still human?"
Inside the other person's body, Colin discovered that his previous perception was correct, and there were indeed many other things in this group of people's bodies.
There are some weird things, like parasites or fungi, that are parasitic in their bodies...
The key point is that there is more than one kind of this fucking parasite.
Every person's intestines, lungs, bone cavities, blood vessels, and even their brains are inhabited by parasitic creatures, some like insects, some like fungi, or some special bacteria. Furthermore, the whole thing seems to have formed some kind of symbiotic relationship...
Moreover, some organs that are normally found in normal human bodies are not present in these people.
For example, the original stomach was replaced by some strange parasitic organism.
Some individuals even don't have bones.
"Hiss, is this a Gu-like creature that is being cultivated in the body?"
Colin scratched the back of his head. It was fine if he didn't look closely, but once he looked closely, he inexplicably felt a sense of the uncanny valley.
No wonder mermaids say they are pseudo-humans, it is true...
Apart from looking like a human, it doesn't look like a human in any other way.
At this time, a federal officer who seemed to be a diplomat stepped forward, a smile on his pale face:
"Welcome, Mr. Bonfire Agent. I am Chuck Howard, the deputy captain of the battleship 'King of the Deep Sea Giants' and the Minister Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary for this exchange. It is my honor to meet you..."
As he spoke, he looked at the employees around Colin and also paid his respects.
"Well, nice to meet you too."
There were a lot of thoughts in Colin's mind, but he didn't show them on his face. At least from what they said, these "people" were still able to communicate with each other, without too much distortion like their bodies.
After receiving the response, Chuck glanced at the Queen of the Sea Siren, bowed his upper body slightly, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Queen Doris is not here for some reasons, but she asked me to say hello to you."
"Yes." The Queen of the Sea Siren nodded: "Then please say hello to her for me later."
Queen Doris is the queen of another sea siren...
"Of course, I'll keep this in mind."
Seeing that the two had finished their conversation, Ke Lin said, "Do you know why I came here this time?"
He was not used to this kind of cumbersome etiquette meeting because he didn't know what to say.
"certainly."
Deputy Captain Howard nodded, looking at Colin with a hint of fear in his eyes:
"The documents are currently stored in the royal castle hall of the 'King of the Deep Sea Giants'. I will lead you there to complete the signing of this contract..."
As he spoke, he couldn't help but think of that group of people, only a dozen or so, wearing strange and heavy steel plates...
Those guys were chasing a very scary and dangerous creature that passed by them. In the process, they passed by in the name of protecting the deep-sea people from the persecution of "Level 0 containment 'hunger'".
He forced then-Captain Omir to sign a document of unknown validity...
How could Omir agree to such an impolite request? He immediately drove the man away.
And then...
They were attacked by a bizarre statue with eighteen arms. Many methods proved ineffective against it, and Omir immediately prepared to sacrifice hundreds of thousands of people to awaken the machine spirit of the "King of the Deep Sea Giants"...
However, the order had just been issued and had not yet been executed.
The people who were driven away before reappeared, and in the name of cruelly persecuting ordinary humans, they enforced some special regulations and sentenced the captain to crimes against humanity...
And then nothing happened.
The captain died suddenly. One of the most powerful humans in the world died suddenly and inexplicably.
Deputy Captain Howard was also pushed up.
Although he did not understand what the contract meant, seeing that those outsiders were determined to change people unless they changed their minds, he signed the document anyway. He was then asked to wait for a special envoy to arrive and sign to make the contract officially effective.
After doing all this, the group left.
Howard wasn't sure whether he should be happy about his promotion or depressed about becoming someone else's puppet...
However, to his shock, some time later, the Patriarch of the heretical race "Crimson Abyss" arrived and stated that he would sign the document on behalf of "Crimson Abyss"...
This means... this group of people probably used the same logic to "convince" them...
He even "persuaded" the "Crimson Abyss"!
Then, the "Sea God Cult," "Separatism," and some other members of the Holy Deep Sea Human Federation also sent people over...
The more Howard received, the more horrified he became. That group of guys attacked the entire Dark Sea in the name of "protecting the people of the Dark Sea."
Good or bad, no one can escape...
Even those powerful "gods" may be forced to surrender.
Thinking of this, he looked at the agent with even more respect .
"Then let's go."
Colin didn't know what the deputy captain was thinking, but he could sense that the captain had a certain fear of him.
One can probably guess that it is related to that special team.
"Alright, I was thinking of using the 'bonfire' to establish my authority, but now it seems I won't need it." The thought flashed through his mind.
It was after he spoke that the deputy captain did not dare to delay and quickly led everyone to the main hall of the warship.
As they began to approach the legendary warship that housed millions of soldiers, Colin and the others could roughly see its appearance through the murky water...
"Wow… fuck."
“So big…”
"Oh my god..."
When several employees saw the thing, they sighed at the same time that it was ignorant.
Through the thick, specially designed glass of the submarine, everyone could clearly see a gigantic ship, the end of which was as far as the eye could see, floating in the deep sea...
Countless indicator lights flashed on it, and there were a large number of accompanying ships around it.
But compared to it, it is like a small fish next to a blue whale.
In addition, on that giant ship, one can see densely packed thick gun barrels, each with a caliber of.
It makes people feel peaceful and at peace...
The overall effect is very visually impactful.
Even Colin couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Although compared to a starship, whether in theory or technology, this giant ship cannot compare to a starship, but...
"Big ships and big guns are the real romance."
Colin sighed that the things on the starship were so advanced that he didn't know which ones were weapons and which ones were not.
The shock is far less than what is in front of me——
I just don't know if those gun barrels will explode when they fire in deep water...
It is somewhat inconsistent with scientific knowledge.
"I guess some employees are doing this on purpose. They're redundant with their skills, so appearance doesn't matter anymore. They just want to look good ..."
Colin shook his head secretly. When the pick-up ship approached, he saw many temple-like buildings built on the warship.
It looks like barnacles on a large whale...
At the top of the "Battleship of the Deep Sea King", they saw a castle building wrapped in bubbles and inlaid with a large number of colorful gems. It sparkled brilliantly under the lights and was worthy of being described as luxurious.
When Colin arrived, he immediately saw that a large group of humans of various appearances had been waiting for a long time.
Among them there are even powerful beings from the "Crimson Abyss".
However, this time, the other party didn't seem hostile. Instead, they wore a creepy smile, held a document in their hand, and waited for his arrival...
With the explanation from Deputy Captain Howard, he understood why these people were here.
"It's a pity that the team doesn't seem to be here."
Colin glanced around, taking in the scene.
Then, surrounded by a group of people, he walked into the hall, and after sitting down, he received the original contract of the "Dark Sea Treaty" handed to him by the deputy captain.
Ke Lin took it and quickly read it, roughly understanding the content above...
"...When '0-0 Hunger' appears...all factions are obliged to cooperate with 'Bonfire Company' (Bonfire Camp Special Item Storage Company)'s subjugation operations and allow the use of the world authority of 'Black Sea World (World Number -4)'..."
At first glance, it seems to mean obtaining some kind of right of passage...
Doesn’t it look special?
Colin felt that there should be more than that. He took out the golden mark given by Shana to improve his brain power. He spent some time and quickly glanced at the contract that was almost as thick as his fist.
Vaguely, he noticed a not-so-conspicuous key.
"Under special circumstances, the company can mobilize more than 70 percent of the world's water resources..."
"What do we need water for?"
Colin suddenly thought of Ms. Rabbit's request.
Ah, this...
Don't you want to flood the earth?
At this moment, he felt that it was absurd that in order to avoid the end of the world, we should first destroy the world.
