"I don’t know how much deeper I can go to reach the bottom of the sea!"

Waldo looked around, hoping to discover something in the West.

Although deep in the ocean, he could still feel the movement of the water.

Moreover, the speed was not slow.

The center of the flowing water was the deeper part of the ocean.

Waldo hesitated for a moment and then headed deeper.

"Waldo, be careful."

Alanna reminded, a worried look on her face.

"Alright!"

Waldo nodded.

Afterward, with a burst of speed, he plunged into the sea like an arrow, heading straight towards the depths of the water!

For an ordinary person, this step would be impossible.

At this depth, it’s difficult to go any further.

However, for Waldo, it was clearly not a problem.

His descent speed was extremely fast.

In no time, he reached a depth of five thousand one hundred meters!

He descended a hundred meters in less than a minute.

Five thousand two hundred meters!

Five thousand three hundred meters!

Five thousand four hundred meters!

Waldo furrowed his brow.

He noticed that the light barrier on his body’s surface could no longer hold up.

It was being compressed by the immense pressure, sticking tightly to his skin.

The pressure was increasing, but it was still within my tolerance.

Without pausing, Waldo continued to head deeper.

Soon, he descended to a depth of five thousand five hundred meters!

Five thousand six hundred meters!

Five thousand seven hundred meters!

Six thousand meters!

Waldo finally stopped and looked around at the darkness.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t withstand the pressure of the water.

His physique was strong, and going another thousand meters deeper was no problem.

Certainly, if he goes deeper, he will have to consider the issue of danger.

The flow of water has become much faster! He should be nearing his destination!

Waldo felt the rapid, icy-cold water flowing over his skin, and his heart raced with excitement.

And at this moment, he also saw in the distance a massive jellyfish floating by.

The jellyfish was at least as large as a battleship, with a transparent body that emitted light.

From it, Waldo even felt a hint of threat.

Fortunately, the giant jellyfish had no intention of attacking him and paid him no heed.

Almost there!

Waldo’s heart was filled with excitement.

Meanwhile, in Dawn City, the group of people grew nervous.

Alanna said, "It looks like Waldo is about to reach his destination, and we don’t know what he’ll discover."

Calvert added, "The appearance of such a tremendous celestial phenomenon is certainly not an ordinary occurrence. Such a massive celestial phenomenon, unprecedented, should lead to a significant discovery. It might even be a groundbreaking revelation."

"Let’s wait and see! This new discovery is hard to predict, and we don’t know if it’s a good thing or a bad thing."

Helen had a hint of concern on her face.

It was unclear whether she was worried about Waldo or concerned that his actions might lead to unpredictable consequences.

In any case, her words silenced the group.

Just at that moment, everyone’s eyes suddenly widened.

Because Waldo had reached a critical moment.

As he continued to descend, Waldo could clearly feel the changes and currents in the water.

Soon, Waldo’s eyes landed on the seafloor.

There were continuous underwater ridges on the seafloor.

Among them, many underwater volcanoes were present.

However, many of the volcanoes had gone completely dormant.

Waldo’s gaze locked onto one of the extinct volcanoes.

At the volcano’s mouth, a massive black hole had formed, as if it were devouring all life.

The giant vortex that appeared on the sea’s surface seemed to have a very close connection to it.

"My intuition tells me there’s no danger in this. At least, the vortex itself doesn’t pose any danger. I can give it a try!" Waldo thought to himself.

While contemplating, he quickly headed in that direction.

Whoosh!

Waldo directly plunged into the black hole of the vortex!

Ah!

Waldo exclaimed.

In an instant, Waldo only felt darkness in front of him.

Immediately after, there was a sense of dizziness.

He didn’t know how long had passed, but Waldo finally regained his vision!

Whoosh!

He’s out!

Where is this?

Waldo suddenly appeared in a different space, a smile couldn’t help but spread across his face.

However, before he could fully enjoy the moment, his expression changed slightly!

A different space?

No, this is a different world!

Waldo looked in shock at the distant scenery.

There seemed to be no sky here, only a vast expanse of black land with rugged mountain peaks.

The terrain of this world was pockmarked, as if it had been gnawed by something.

In the sky of this world hung three crimson suns.

However, these were not real suns.

The light they emitted was a dark red, and it was relatively dim. Although it covered the vast land, it still made the world feel dark.

Is this actually an underground world?!

In an instant, a huge wave surged in Waldo’s heart!

This completely exceeded his expectations.

Not just him, the people of Dawn City were also utterly dumbfounded!

However, this underwater world seems to have undergone some drastic changes and has lost its vitality!

Waldo suddenly frowned.

Then, without much hesitation, he directly relied on his flying abilities and swiftly soared under the three crimson suns, moving at an extreme speed!

While flying at high speed, Waldo observed the situation of this underground world.

The more he looked, the more alarmed he became!

Because this underwater world was riddled with cracks and filled with a seemingly permanent scent of smoke.

Clearly, this place had once endured a prolonged and devastating war.

And this war nearly destroyed this underwater world.

Waldo continued to fly for two hours.

Just as he was approaching his limit.

In the distance, at the end of his vision, he saw a large expanse of buildings!

It was a city!

In an instant, Waldo’s spirits lifted!

"Let’s go take a look!"

Waldo didn’t hesitate and flew directly toward that direction.

Soon, a massive city appeared before his eyes.

The city in this underwater world was vastly different from cities on the surface.

The structures were entirely built using rocks.

And the architecture was unique.

Buildings were constructed in an elliptical shape using rocks, and each building was towering!

Within the city, connecting different structures, were sky bridges spanning the sky.

They looked like various types of pipes and also resembled veins in a human heart, connecting the entire underground city!

"This is an underground city? It’s so different!"

Waldo paused on a sky bridge, looking at the city, his expression slightly dazed.

There’s actually a city beneath the sea!

This is a civilization!

More importantly, the level of development of this civilization seems to be very high!

However, for some reason, a war broke out in this underwater world, bringing about destruction.

Including the city before Waldo’s eyes!

If this city hadn’t been ravaged, it would have been a marvel!

This city with its entirely different architectural style, especially the intricate network of sky bridges connecting everything, showcased that this underwater world was once incredibly prosperous and highly advanced.

However, it is unfortunate that this city has been destroyed.

Many buildings are reduced to rubble.

Many of the aerial sky bridges have been destroyed and are impassable!

At this moment, the underground city has lost its vitality!

No, in fact, there are still other entities present; it wouldn’t be accurate to say there’s absolutely no vitality!

Suddenly, Waldo squinted.

He flew to the central area of the city and looked down from the sky.

Apart from the ruins,

he also saw giant figures resembling walking corpses walking on the streets, their eyes lifeless and aimless!

If he’s not mistaken, these giants, towering up to two fathoms in height, are the natives of this underground world.

They still wore distinctive clothing.

But it was already tattered and worn!

Besides these seemingly lifeless giant zombies, there were many mutated animals present.

On top of the massive buildings, gigantic beasts climbed and roared terrifyingly toward Waldo in the sky!

These subterranean beasts seemed to have undergone mutations.

Their eyes were enormous, bloodshot, and their bodies were grotesque.

Most of the mutants had grotesque pustules all over their bodies.

Some pustules had ruptured, and a dark green liquid oozed out.

It dripped down with a nauseating sound!

In addition, a small portion of the mutants appeared relatively normal, without any obvious mutations on their bodies.

However, what puzzled Waldo was that they seemed to have some mechanical devices installed on their bodies.

For example, there was a giant tiger whose limbs had been replaced by mechanical arms.

This is

Waldo’s pupils contracted!

Animal bodies replaced by machinery?

The technological development in this underwater world seems to be even more advanced than he had imagined!

On the surface, the technology to modify the human body hasn’t been developed yet!

The underwater world has made much stronger advancements and research in biological sciences and technologies. These mutated animals’ bodies that they seem to be products of human modification in this underwater world—genetic and mechanical modifications!

Waldo took a deep breath.

In an instant, many thoughts flashed through his mind!

What was the previous technological level of this underwater world? 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

What happened in this underwater world to become what it is now?

Are there still living beings in this underwater world?

No, perhaps the subterranean giants are still present?

Why has the entire city been taken over by zombies and mutants?

What about the other living giants?

In Waldo’s mind, thoughts were racing!

"However, no matter what, this underwater world is definitely worth exploring! If I can gain some corresponding technology, maybe I can help the survivors become stronger!" Waldo thought.

Although the likelihood of this is relatively small.

Because their modifications on animals don’t seem to be successful!

But in any case, it’s definitely worth exploring thoroughly.
