In a deep sleep, Xu Qingyuan slowly opened his eyes and realized that he was now in a deep-sea area.
The deep blue sea around seemed not terrifying at all; instead, it exuded an indescribable, wondrous beauty.
Sunlight filtered through the shimmering surface of the water, taking on the shape of light itself. Everything radiated a kind of enchanting magic that made one want to immerse themselves in it.
The jellyfish gracefully unfurled its elegant form in the water, showcasing beautiful curves; the sea turtle glided along with its heavy body, perhaps only able to swim so freely in the water; schools of silver fish gathered and dispersed, as if performing a piece of action art; a moan reached his ears, and Xu Qingyuan looked down to see a blue whale swimming beneath him, watching its massive body drift away. The continuous sound of moaning lingered in his ears, a call to its distant kin.
Everything happening before Xu Qingyuan filled him with curiosity; he had never seen such a beautiful underwater landscape up close.
The last time I saw such a beautiful scenery was back in college, when I visited the holographic simulation screen of the Pacific Ocean seabed.
The surroundings were all very realistic, but if it weren't for Xu Qingyuan not realizing that he was feeling suffocated, he might have really thought he was at the bottom of the sea.
This is just a dream.
The elders of Country Z often say that when you realize this is a dream, it is time to wake up from it.
Xu Qingyuan showed no signs of waking up; he continued to observe the creatures of the ocean floor.
Since the announcement of the arrival of the glacial era, the visible ocean area on Earth has been steadily decreasing. Apart from some oceans near the equator, no other traces could be seen.
Under the global ice cover, the underwater scenery has become increasingly rare, and with the worsening pollution of the ocean floor, people can no longer see the pure blue.
The last underwater observation record was obtained ten years ago by Professor Charles on a wealthy island near the equator.
Xu Qingyuan I can't believe I had such a dream.
I've never been to the seaside.
Xu Qingyuan, who was immersed in the underwater world, did not notice that there was an extra shadow behind him without realizing it.
A large fish tail protruded from the corner of the coral, appearing to be two or three meters long.
Perhaps it was the intense gaze from behind that made Xu Qingyuan turn around and see this colossal creature.
What is this?
Such a long tail, Xu Qingyuan did not recall seeing this strange creature in any of the underwater creature illustrations she had seen before. Or should I say, a beautiful creature.
The tail of the fish reflects in the light, with silver scales shimmering with iridescent colors, and a touch of purple-red tint on the fin at the tail.
So beautiful.
Xu Qingyuan extended his right hand and swam forward, wanting to slowly approach this beautiful creature.
Soon, Xu Qingyuan caught hold of the beautiful fish tail.
He gently picked up the most beautiful purple part of the fish tail and brought it close to his eyes. The unexpected softness of the caudal fin gave a cool, gauze-like sensation in his hand, and Xu Qingyuan couldn't help but stroke it a few times.
As if sensing an external force, the two crescent-shaped caudal fins curled towards the middle and slipped out of Xu Qingyuan's hand.
Xu Qingyuan Looking up along the swaying of the fish tail, the tail becomes thicker and thicker, until it is as wide as two palms, and the hidden front half is concealed in the coral.
Xu Qingyuan He dared not exert force to pull out this seemingly huge fish. Before knowing the species and diet of this fish, he would not act recklessly.
Looking at the chaotic coral in front of him, Xu Qingyuan decided to change his perspective and observe this unknown fish from the crevices.
The previous movement did not startle the fish. It seems that the fish has already eaten and rested, so it has lowered its guard.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xu Qingyuan swam to the top of the fish tail and slowly pushed aside the coral in front of him, creating an opening in the dense coral. Through this narrow, dark gap, Xu Qingyuan couldn't make out any details of the hole, but could vaguely see that there seemed to be a rather large creature inside.
He exerted a little more force, tearing the gap even larger.
Finally, the coral opened up enough to observe the inside, but the sound it made also startled the sleeping giant beast inside.
Those were a pair of icy cold eyes, suddenly awakened and opened, emitting two bright green lights in the dark corner.
Xu Qingyuan immediately let go, and the coral bushes closed as well. Inside, the giant beast that had just been sleeping inside swayed its tail and slid out in an instant.
Xu Qingyuan Before I could escape, I was shocked by everything in front of me.
It turns out that above the fish tail, it's not necessarily the fish head, but it could also be...
This is incredible.
Its upper body is constructed like a human's, but with subtle differences.
His ears were like fish fins attached to the sides of his head, and long fins extended from his elbows. Between his fingers was a transparent membrane, and behind him floated what seemed to be ethereal fish scales. Aside from these, his skin emitted a faint glow, likely covered in thin fish scales.
After observing the appearance of the mermaid, Xu Qingyuan turned his gaze to its face. The mermaid's face looked very familiar; it was none other than Ansheng, whom he had just seen in the laboratory today.
