Solidus’ reaction was intense, even more so than when he mistakenly thought they were enemies as if he had heard something unimaginable.
“The deep-sea dragon whale clan has always been unyielding, taking pride in dying in battle. Why would you submit to a lowly human lord?”
“My Lord is not lowly!” Anina detected the disdain and resentment in his words and, like an irritated kitten, retorted, “It was my great lord who took in the homeless me! It was the people of the Crown of the Ocean who gave me a home!”
“Humph! Can a deep-sea dragon whale ever truly integrate into human society? We are the rulers of the ocean, and we have never bowed to any other race! Not even the gods could make us submit!”
Solidus spoke with a voice that was old but unyielding, looking at the still-defiant Anina and Ji Chen by her side, his anger rising.
From his perspective, it seemed that this sly human lord had employed persuasive words to trick this young descendant, simply aiming to take advantage of her abilities.
No need for confirmation; it must be the case because humans have always behaved like this!
As if recalling some painful memory, anger flared in Solidus’ eyes as he continued, “Human, even though I’ve reached the end of my life, I’ll expend my last ounce of strength to defeat you for my people.”
As a proud member of the deep-sea dragon whale, known for their arrogance and strength, Solidus, at this moment, was willing to attack Ji Chen without any reservations.
Anina looked worried, not wanting her own clan elder to take action against her lord. But she couldn’t just stand by and watch her lord be attacked.
“No need to worry; I won’t harm him,” Ji Chen said with a gentle smile, reassuring Anina.
Then he turned to face the approaching Solidus. Despite being a legendary level 69 hero, Solidus had already weakened significantly due to his aging and the waning of his life force. His strength was no longer as formidable as it appeared on the surface.
[Deep Sea Dragon Whale Hero: Solidus (Aging)]
• •
[This hero unit has entered the aging phase, with all attributes decreased by 50%.]
At this moment, Solidus had only about half of his normal strength, which was not much different from a level fifty-something legendary hero. He posed less of a threat to Ji Chen than Lord of the Waves.
Ji Chen remained calm.
He raised his hand, and the aura belonging to an epic-tier profession surged out like a volcanic eruption. The surrounding seawater instantly boiled, creating violent currents that radiated outward, tossing Solidus aside as he charged in.
“Epic-tier?! How is this possible? How can a human possess such power?”
Solidus, struggling to stabilize himself, showed a mix of disbelief and sadness in his gigantic whale eyes.
He had fought his entire life, slaying countless foes and earning countless victories, only to be effortlessly tossed aside by a human in his old age. Heroes do age, indeed!
Ji Chen watched as Solidus remained motionless after being tossed by the currents, not making any further attacks. He spoke calmly, “Sir Solidus, I have no intention of being your enemy.
We have come here, traveling thousands of miles, to find the Abyss of the Dragon Whales.”
Solidus, seemingly awakened from his desolation and sorrow, stopped his hostile actions and replied with a resigned tone, “What do you seek in the Abyss of the Dragon Whales? This young one is not me, and she is not gravely injured either. It’s far from her time to die. Could it be… you want to sneak in and steal a dragon whale’s corpse!?”
As if realizing something, he suddenly grew furious.
The ancient dragon whale clan was considered giant dragons living in the ocean. Their whale scales, bones, and oil were extremely precious. However, due to the isolation of the deep sea, they rarely faced threats from land-dwelling races.
Seeing Solidus’ intense emotional swings, Ji Chen’s lips twitched slightly as he glanced at Anina.
“It’s not like that. As you saw earlier, Anina has reached the limit of her potential. Therefore, we want to obtain a high-level dragon whale bloodline within the Abyss of the Dragon Whales, allowing her to break free from the constraints of her life and gain even greater power.”
Solidus looked skeptical. “I’ve never heard that a high-level dragon whale bloodline can help break through the limit of potential. Human, are you trying to deceive me?”
“…I do have a method to help Anina break through. The only thing missing now is this high-level dragon whale bloodline.” Ji Chen replied with a calm demeanor.
“Even so, I cannot possibly take you into the Abyss of the Dragon Whales. It is the most sacred and important place for our deep-sea dragon whale clan, where countless deep-sea dragon whales rest in peace, their souls at ease. It cannot be entered by outsiders.”
Solidus snorted, “Even if you were to kill me now, I would never do something that goes against our ancestral teachings.”
“Then let Anina enter.”
“That’s also impossible,” Solidas replied. “I’m afraid this young one has already realized it. The closer she gets to the Abyss of the Dragon Whales, the more her bloodline’s memories will blur. As long as a deep-sea dragon whale is not gravely injured, near death, or dying of old age, they all experience this. It’s to prevent some young clan members from attempting to sneak into the Abyss of the Dragon Whales to steal the whale corpse.
In addition to that, the entrance to the Abyss of the Dragon Whales is protected by countermeasures that prevent young dragon whales from entering..”
