Chapter 166 The Lantern Fish

"Greetings, Sea King."

Chen Luo brought Zhao Ziyi to the seaside again; the seafood conference wasn't over yet.

Chen Luo said with satisfaction, "All are very good, especially the giant sea turtle. I commend it by name. It has made great contributions. I plan to bestow divine power upon it, allowing it to reach the King level within a week."

Chen Luo didn't know what level the giant sea turtle was at after Level 10, so he said a week for good measure.

He had to reward the giant sea turtle as an example.

The giant sea turtle was overjoyed and kept kowtowing, "This old turtle thanks the Sea King."

Chen Luo beckoned with a smile, signaling the giant sea turtle to come over.

The giant sea turtle lumbered over.

The invisible acceleration of time had already begun to target the giant sea turtle. At the same time, Chen Luo held a piece of Frost Condensing Pearl in his hand, hoping to help the giant sea turtle advance on the spot.

Chen Luo signaled Zhao Ziyi to start connecting.

There were more than eighty seafood creatures present.

Just then, a strange, almost transparent fish with a lantern-like organ visible inside its body said obsequiously.

"Lord Sea King, is this a mental connection? I can do it too. I would like to serve you."

This lantern fish was also a mental type, capable of mental connections, and its level was much higher than Zhao Ziyi and Yuri.

Chen Luo was amused. In that case, there was no need to bring Yuri over.

If this lantern fish reached the King level, it could probably send mental messages across the globe, right?

Chen Luo pointed at it and said with a smile, "You are very filial. I like you. Okay, you can do it all."

Although the lantern fish wouldn't be as reliable as Zhao Ziyi, Chen Luo wasn't entrusting it with any confidential matters.

It would just act as a liaison, contacting the various seafood creatures, conveying his orders, and being able to contact them at any time.

"In this way, I will also bestow divine power upon you. Perform well."

The lantern fish couldn't close its mouth with joy, and tears of excitement streamed down its face.

"I never thought, *wuwu*, that I could serve the Sea King."

Zhao Ziyi scratched his head. These seafood creatures were completely fooled.

Receiving Chen Luo's order, the lantern fish immediately began to connect with the various seafood creatures.

Seeing this, the other seafood creatures clamored, "I also want to serve the Sea King, but I don't know what I can do to help the Sea King."

Chen Luo laughed loudly, "There really is something. In a few days, I will arrange for a group of people to come over, and you will be responsible for transporting them to other continents. Those with small bodies don't need to participate."

Chen Luo planned to use these seafood creatures as transportation tools, letting them become familiar with the members before the monsters descended, so they could fight together when the time came.

This would be a good opportunity to observe which ones were truly filial and which were unfilial descendants. If they were unfilial, then sorry, they would have to be killed.

A beluga whale muttered, "Transporting humans? I don't want to do it. Two and a half years ago, I almost died at the hands of humans. They hunted my kind wantonly. I would be doing well not to kill them."

Chen Luo's face darkened. Your idea is correct, but you are ignorant of the times.

Some of the seafood creatures also looked unwilling.

It was an honor to be Lord Sea King's mount, but some humans?

Chen Luo couldn't issue orders too forcefully, so he tempted them, "I will select the top three performers each month and bestow divine power upon them."

As soon as these words came out, the seafood creatures were shocked, including the beluga whale, which kept nodding.

You should have said so earlier, Lord Sea King.

"I'm willing, I'm willing, I can transport them day and night."

"Lord Sea King, although I am small, I can have my little ones pull them, or pull a boat to run."

"I can act as a guard, escorting them across the sea."

Just then, the giant sea turtle, which had been accelerated by Chen Luo's time manipulation, suddenly became a size larger, turning into a behemoth.

The giant sea turtle roared, "Don't fight with me, let me do it."

The seafood creatures looked at the giant sea turtle in surprise. This momentum, had it advanced?

Lord Sea King said he would help it advance, and it really did.

Having witnessed Chen Luo's divine power once again, the seafood creatures became even more active.

The seafood creatures who hadn't witnessed it last time widened their eyes to watch.

The giant sea turtle was depressed, "Why can't I transform? Am I too stupid?"

Chen Luo looked at the giant sea turtle with satisfaction. With this shell, it could probably transport thousands of people at once if they were a little crowded.

Chen Luo said, "You can disperse. After you are ready, I will have the lantern fish contact you, and then you can gather here."

Chen Luo took the lantern fish and Zhao Ziyi back to the base.

The lantern fish wasn't very big, about two meters long. Chen Luo put it directly into the fish tank.

"Stay here obediently, and I will bestow divine power when I have time."

The lantern fish kept nodding, "I'm very obedient."

Chen Luo encouraged it and left with satisfaction.

Chen Luo quickly went to find Fa Wang to exchange the fire-type crystal for Mi Ling.

Fa Wang was taking care of the baby, holding the smallest white puppy and coaxing it.

What a strange scene.

Fa Wang hadn't named the other puppies, but he had given this one a special name, Faxue.

Xue means white.

When Fa Wang saw Chen Luo coming, he smiled and said, "Let Gan-daddy hold it."

Chen Luo reluctantly took it. Faxue had a smile on its face, inheriting the genes of the Samoyed. Faxue's smile was very healing.

Well, he couldn't pet Mifan, so petting it was also good.

Chen Luo said with a smile, "When the time comes, I will gather 100,000 members and build you a big doghouse."

The crystal of Li Fire was just something Fa Wang was preparing to obtain. He hadn't started absorbing it yet. Not to mention Chen Luo exchanging it with a crystal, even if he wanted it, Fa Wang would give it without hesitation.

With the crystal in hand, Chen Luo immediately left Fa Wang and instantly arrived at Mi Ling's place.

Mi Ling's expression wasn't very good. She was always worried about how to deal with the situation if the survivors launched a large-scale siege on Dawn City.

To kill or not to kill?

Mi Ling could understand them. If she were them, she would vent her anger on Dawn City for the sake of food and the pressure brought about by the apocalypse.

If you don't let us live, then let's all die together.

There was no right or wrong, just different positions.

If it was just a few thousand people, killing them would be fine, but it could be hundreds of thousands or even millions of people.

Anyone with discernment could see that this was a difference in position.

If Chen Luo killed them, not to mention others, Zhao Ziyi and Meng Yin, who were originally able to joke around with Chen Luo, would tremble when they saw him.

Killing them all wasn't difficult, but Chen Luo would lose a lot, a lot.

Chen Luo smiled and said, "I have a solution. We can go to other continents, or find an island. Do they have the ability to find us?"

Mi Ling's eyes lit up, "Good idea."

Then Mi Ling sighed in her heart. If possible, she still wanted more people to survive, but even Chen Luo had no solution, so what could she do?

Chen Luo chuckled, "I'll show you a treasure."

Chen Luo took out the crystal of Li Fire and gave it to Mi Ling.

"This thing is no longer very useful to me."

Mi Ling blushed and bumped Chen Luo.

Thinking of something, Mi Ling said with a somewhat solemn expression.

"By the way, recently, I saw some foreigners running over, like scouts."

…

Now cleaning up the loose ends, writing about the descent of the monsters at around 850,000 words, and writing a little about the other continents is enough. It's still early for the ending. In a concise and capable manner, it should be written to around 1.2 million words.
