Chapter 1905 "Steel Algae"
Although in the past fifteen minutes, they never met any dangers aside from poisonous plants or all sorts of carnivorous plants that the plant-tamer girl diligently solved...
But they were still a bit nervous when they saw the outline of the Acacia plant's roots.
From afar, they could only see huge black roots as big as the steel used in many buildings, and to be honest, even from afar, looking at such a neat row of roots...
Everyone felt like entering an underwater forest made entirely with acacia roots!
Even the adults here looked so small compared to the roots as if they could directly make a house inside these roots or in the gap among the roots.
They knew that they should have arrived near the 'wall' of the west lake, which means they were close to the shore, but because they were deep underwater, all they saw was a long and tall wall of stone with all those roots.
The acacia plants always needed rocks to grow, so they always grew near the shore, but their roots penetrated deep into the lake.
Everyone even had a hunch that the roots might even reach the bottom of the lake that they still couldn't see clearly.
This lake was so deep, unlike any other lake.
Even if the danger level was generally lowered by their identities as fake mermaids and mermen...
This lake still felt wrong!
Everyone didn't rush to go to the huge roots in front of them that looked like a tall wall in Attack of Titan anime but full of thick plant roots instead of smooth stones.
On the contrary, the group carefully looked around to check the inhabitants who lived in this area, especially many beasts and monsters that lived among the roots.
When the contestants deliberately looked around, they couldn't help but hold their breath as they broke into a cold sweat.
Not to mention the wandering mutant plants. From small animals to big ones as big as a killer shark, they could be found among the acacia roots.
The roots were really too huge and complex, but it indeed became a house for small animals to big ones.
Small animals seek protection by hiding among the roots while big animals come to hunt prey day after day.
This place had an ecology on its own, and so it was not strange to have so many inhabitants.
Ainsley and the others felt that their scalps were numb.
They would see a school of fish one after another passing by the huge roots everywhere, but because there were too many roots, the surrounding looked like a maze.
One could no longer see the school of fish swimming around, blocked by the huge roots everywhere.
The roots were not only embedded into the wall of the lake but also grew to various areas, creating some kind of forest full of roots, but there were huge and small gaps between the roots.
If this was a mermaid movie or something, this kind of place should be the nemesis of mermaids and mermen because these roots were hindrances for long-tailed fishes.
Big animals would still shuttle between the roots to catch some prey, but they generally stayed outside of the range, which meant the group was the closest to the lurking giants.
Not only that, but there were various strange plants being entangled in each root.
Some also floated carelessly in the water, either becoming food for herbivore water animals or secretly hunting animals as nutrients.
The environment was also not that good because aside from the bone-chilling cold that was barely bearable for the contestants, there was also a thick mist underwater, surrounding the roots area.
Going inside would be the same as bypassing the mist, and everyone didn't know what would happen to them.
The group huddled together again for a while and talked in a lowered sound wave so that other fishes could not understand their language at all.
"What to do? The vision will be super limited after we bypass the mist, and I also don't know how we can cut the roots. Do we have a special tool for that, or can we use our ability?"
After all, the roots of the Acacia plant had always been a good material for many famous weapons, which means it should be as tough as steel and would not be easily cut down with a sword, a knife, or other cold weapons.
If the carpenter guy was here with them, he could actually provide some tools, but he was not here, and even if he had prepared some tools for the group, the group was still a bit hesitant.
Everyone had a heavy heart, but the mermaid calmed down the group of people who knew too little about underwater creatures.
"It's okay, calm down, maybe it won't be as dangerous as you thought."
"This strange mist might have a hallucination effect or other side effects, so if you have any antidote, please drink one."
"Aside from the mist, there will be some strange plants with abilities to induce hallucinations or nightmare, so you should also be prepared."
"We should tie our hands to each other with a rope so that we won't drift away and get lost or get separated from the group."
"We should tie our hands to each other with a rope so that we won't drift away and get lost or get separated from the group."
"It will be dangerous to be alone in this kind of place."
The mermaid took out some kind of algae that was soft to the skin but a tough one that could not be cut even with knives and sharp animal's teeth.
Others didn't know what kind of algae it was, but the Merfolk race often called this algae as the steel algae because this seemingly weak algae turned out to be as strong as steel!
Maybe even better than steel.
