Save the Bachelor of Heaven

Tongla was nailed to the cross in the square by the angry mermaid.

His hands and fish tail were nailed with nails, and he bled profusely, but he could not die and could only live in pain forever.

He also became a negative example forever. All mermaids could see his miserable condition, so they naturally dared not be traitors or disobey the goddess of the sea.

As a result, Xiang Nan's status in the Mermaid Kingdom was greatly improved.

…

Xiang Nan then embedded the Heart of the Ocean rock on the Trident of Poseidon.

The two artifacts burst out with blazing light at the same time, making it difficult for people to open their eyes.

When the light flashed, the Heart of the Ocean had merged with the Trident of Poseidon.

Xiang Nan tried to wave it, and in an instant, huge waves surged in the sea, much more powerful than before.

"Not bad." Xiang Nan smiled with satisfaction, and then he came to the Kingdom of Gills as a guest. Under the guidance of the Gills guide, he came to the location of the Kingdom of Gills.

The kingdom of the gills is also located deep under the sea, but not in the city, but in the winding seabed caves.

These caves were dug by the gills when they were mining on the seabed. They are about two meters high and deep, going deeper into the seabed, and the caves are dark and there is no light at all.

It looks like a monster lying on the seabed, with its mouth wide open waiting for its prey to come to its door.

Therefore, when Xiang Nan swam into the cave, he almost suffered from claustrophobia and deep-sea phobia.

The eyes of the gills have been genetically modified and have the ability to see at night, so no matter how dark the cave is, the guide is not afraid at all, and will not get lost at all.

Xiang Nan needs to take out the magic wand, "fluorescent flash", to help him illuminate the way forward.

When he entered, he found that the mine inside was like a spider web, densely packed, and there were many forks.

Fortunately, Xiang Nan had a gill guide to lead the way, otherwise, he would definitely get lost.

When he entered the depths of the mine, Xiang Nan saw some buildings in many mines.

The buildings were very simple, just small houses built with stones and sea mud, with no furniture or decoration inside, and looked worse than doghouses.

Xiang Nan didn't know if these were the houses where the gills lived, and he didn't dare to ask.

In addition to these small houses, there seemed to be a lot of fish, shrimps, crabs, shells, seaweed, etc. in some mines. Xiang Nan guessed that these were probably farms and pastures for the gills.

They raised fish, shrimps, crabs, shells, seaweed, etc. in the mines, just like humans grow food and raise pigs, cattle and sheep.

The deeper you go, the more buildings there are, and the caves are getting bigger and bigger. At the deepest point, you can see a cave as big as a basketball court.

There is a very strange building in the cave. It is said to be strange not because of its strange shape, but because of the strange materials used to build it.

"Are these... mining machines made by Atlantis?" Xiang Nan recognized them immediately.

These machines are very huge, like a giant, and the cutting head in front is as big as a car.

Once started, you can imagine their power. Even the hardest rocks will be crushed by them. They are really artifacts.

However, these machines are broken now. After all, after thousands of years, no matter how powerful the machines are, they can't escape the fate of aging. What's more, the gill people only know how to use them, but don't know how to repair them, so they can't keep these machines.

However, they seem to have a lot of feelings for these machines. Even if they are useless, the gill people are still unwilling to discard them casually. Instead, they piled them up into a temple.

"This should also be considered as mechanical worship, right?" Xiang Nan couldn't help but sighed.

...

Seeing Xiang Nan coming, the king of the gill people led the people to greet him in person and welcomed Xiang Nan into this mechanical temple.

"Wow~" the king of the gill people said, still speaking the gill language.

Fortunately, before Xiang Nan came again, he learned the language of the gill people from the elders of the mermaid clan and knew that it was welcoming him.

The language of the gill people is very simple, with only about a few hundred words, such as eating, drinking, sleeping, good, bad, etc., and there is only language, no text.

After all, when they were first made, they were just miners responsible for driving mining machines to mine. They did not need much wisdom or deep language.

And after thousands of years, the intelligence and language of the gill people have not made much progress, and they are still thousands of years ago.

"Thank you." Xiang Nan also said in the language of the gill people, "I came here today to preach to you. Now the ocean is managed by the goddess Kolibuso, and you all live in the ocean, so she is your master and the god you need to believe in. You must act according to her will."

The king of the gill people nodded, and then ordered people to summon the gill people to this cave to listen to Xiang Nan's teachings of the sea god religion.

I saw several gill people take out large conches, put them to their mouths, and whistle. The sound of the conch quickly echoed in the cave, and a moment later, a large number of gill people came to the cave.

Xiang Nan noticed that many of them came directly from their work places, because they had not had time to put down their tools.

Some of these gill people were holding stone hammers and chisels, and some were carrying baskets woven with seaweed, and the baskets were filled with pieces of ore.

Xiang Nan was surprised when he took a look.

These ores were varied, including gold, silver, copper, iron, and unprocessed gems and crystals.

It seems that even though Atlantis has been destroyed, the gills are still continuing their mining business. Even though the mining machinery has been scrapped, they still use stone hammers and stone chisels to continue mining ore. It's really exciting to think about it.

...

Xiang Nan then preached the teachings of the sea goddess Kolibuso to the gills.

In fact, he modified it based on the teachings of other religions. After all, although Kolibuso is a god, she has not passed down any teachings at all.

Fortunately, the gills didn't know it, but listened with relish.

After Xiang Nan finished preaching the "Sea Goddess Sermon", he immediately waved his magic wand.

In a moment, a stone statue of the sea goddess appeared in this mechanical building.

Seeing this miracle, the gills bowed down and chanted Kolibuso's name.

Then the king of the gills gave an order, and the gills left with them.

After a while, they all returned, and they were not empty-handed.

They held gold, silver, copper, gems, crystals, etc. reverently and presented them to the statue of Kolibuso.

These gold, silver, copper, gems, crystals, etc. have not been forged or carved.

Xiang Nan guessed that they only knew how to mine ores, but did not know how to smelt, forge and process them, so these ores were all in their original state.

But it does not mean that they are worthless.

In fact, these naturally formed gold, silver and gems are even more valuable. For example, the value of dog-head gold is much higher than the value of pure gold of the same weight.

These gill people have been digging in the seabed mines for thousands of years, and the rich accumulation makes Xiang Nan a little dumbfounded. There are hundreds of dog-head golds the size of a human head alone. There are dozens of baskets of fist-sized pearls, rubies, emeralds, and sapphires...

"Really rich." Xiang Nan couldn't help but admire when he saw this.
