Chapter 684 Begin the Migration
The construction of the three-masted ships accelerated after the first one was launched, as the wealth of experience greatly increased the speed of shipbuilding. Especially with many humans possessing the Demon God Transformation working together, all tasks including the splitting and assembling of timber were much faster than the average shipbuilding efforts.
Everything was progressing rapidly, adhering to Tang San's plan. Within half a year, at least a hundred three-masted ships were to be built. Within a year, a million people were to be transported to the island, where they could live stably.
If successful, there were countless islands in the sea, and humans could migrate even more. With the protection of the Sea Clan, there would at least be a space to exist without enslavement. This also significantly reduced the problem of too many humans gathering in Jiali City.
According to the statistics from the Redemption Organization, there were twenty to thirty million humans living on Demon Monster Land. Humans had a strong reproductive capability, but under the persecution of the Monster Clan and Spirit Clan, the average human life expectancy was less than twenty years—yes, that little. And yet, there were still twenty to thirty million humans. The vast majority were slaves; vassals were only a small part.
Humans have no innate abilities, but they do have a foundation of wisdom. The Redemption Organization is a combination of the few humans who have acquired abilities.
Not all humans with the Demon God Transformation consider themselves human; some vassals even believe they are of the noble Monster Clan. Still, more humans recognize their human identity, despising the Monster Clan and Spirit Clan since most of their mothers were killed after reproduction.
Humans struggled and sought survival amidst constant abuse and slaughter, and yet, there were still millions of them.
This is why, upon learning that the new City Lord of Jiali City had a Human Bloodline, they tried at all costs to make their way there—even if it meant escaping from their slave masters.
What they didn't know was that within the range of Jiali City's jurisdiction, things were somewhat better as the slave masters had to give face to the new City Lord. But the slave masters from other main cities had long been filled with grievances and dissatisfaction.
Tang San stepped out from the light door, and the Sea Elephant Elder had already been waiting by the Teleportation Array.
Not far away, the sounds of "ding ding dang dang" were heard, and further away by the seashore, there was a huge crowd.
Those who had migrated here were busy nearly every day, yet they were full of vigor and determination.
Humans had never considered Demon Monster Land their homeland, for in fact, humans didn't have a homeland at all. It was only after coming here, with the help of the Sea Clan, that they truly felt this place was their home. Surrounded by the boundless sea, there was no longer the imposing presence of the Monster Clan. Here, they felt the joy of a vast sea where fish leap and an open sky where birds soar. Here, they were building their true homeland, with more motivation than the settlements in Jiali City.
So, no matter how hard or exhausting it was, they all believed that life held hope, and this existence of hope was the deepest desire in the human heart. Basking in this dawn of hope, how could they not give it their all?
Moreover, there was no need to worry about food here. The Sea Elephant Clan provided them with a lot of marine life for sustenance, with fish, shrimp, and shellfish more than they could ask for—these were all highly nutritious foods. Coupled with the fruits on the island, it was enough to meet their living needs.
With the human ability to cultivate, within at most half a year, they would see a harvest and be self-sufficient.
Tang San looked at the Elder of the Sea Elephant Clan and asked directly, "Where is the sea plague?"
The Sea Elephant Elder replied anxiously, "It is about seven hundred nautical miles south from here, and it is spreading quickly. Several Elders from other clans have already gone there, and now all we can do is try to control the spread of the sea plague. But from past experiences, it's merely a drop in the bucket."
Tang San nodded and said, "Let's go have a look."
The Sea Elephant Elder nodded, "Divine Envoy, please follow me."
After Tang San's arrival, the Sea Clan had different opinions about his identity, but eventually, they came to a consensus to call him Divine Envoy. After all, they couldn't yet acknowledge that Tang San was the Sea God.
The Sea Elephant Elder twisted its plump body as it entered the sea, and Tang San leaped up, landing on its back.
A faint gray-blue halo emanated from the Sea Elephant Elder's body, and instantly, its plump body surged forward with increased speed, heading south.
In terms of speed, the Sea Elephant Clan certainly couldn't compare with the Sea Shark Clan, but as a God level strong, comparable to a Demon King on land, the Elder could control the sea water to travel with an incredibly fast speed.
Tang San silently absorbed the power of faith from the sea around him, keeping himself in the best condition.
Soon, he noticed that the marine life in the nearby waters had increased significantly, likely seeking refuge from the sea plague.
He had heard from the Sea Elephant Elder that the spread of the sea plague was terrifying, not only because it was transmitted by the sea water itself but also because the infected marine life would scatter the plague everywhere, so once a sea plague broke out, it would become uncontrollable, leading to the deaths of a massive number of marine creatures, and the contaminated waters might not recover for many years.
Seven hundred sea miles under the full effort of a God level strong was merely a matter of a little more than an hour. From a distance, Tang San could feel an aura of death pervading the sea, along with surging energy fluctuations. At the same time, he could also feel the power of faith he could absorb rapidly diminishing.
"Divine Envoy, we're almost there," the Sea Elephant Elder said with some tension, even as a God level strong, the inherent fear of the sea plague still existed.
Tang San nodded and said, "Let's go over and take a look."
Soon, he saw massive surges of blue halos ahead, spreading from above the sea surface all the way to the ocean floor. Many powerful members of the Sea Clan were scattered about, each releasing energy.
The Sea Elephant Elder's body vibrated, emitting a strange humming sound. Quickly, a huge figure approached them.
This was a Sea Shark, but unlike the Sea Sharks Tang San had seen before, this one was not only extremely large but also pure white, with lines of gold extending from its forehead down its body, radiating incredibly strong energy fluctuations.
On seeing this individual, the Sea Elephant Elder's breath noticeably hitched, "Sea Shark King."
Seeing this great white shark, Tang San couldn't help but feel a strange sensation. In his previous life, in the world of Soul Land, he had known the Devil Soul Great White Shark and had been friends with the King of Devil Soul Great White Sharks.
This Sea Shark King was nearly twenty meters long and extraordinarily huge, and its presence made the surrounding sea water tremble slightly. However, Tang San could feel that this one was just beginning to enter the Great Demon King level.
The gaze of the Sea Shark King focused immediately on Tang San, and in the next instant, the white halo surged, accompanied by the fluctuation of mind.
"Is this the one you consider the Divine Envoy?"
Facing the Sea Shark King, the Sea Elephant Elder seemed a bit short of breath; after all, the two clans were natural enemies, and its Cultivation base couldn't compare to the one before it, worried it might be regarded as food.
"Yes, this is the Messenger of the Sea God," it said hurriedly. Find more to read at empire
The Sea Shark King silently sensed Tang San's aura, its eyes revealing a touch of strangeness and even a bit of ferocity. Of course, it could feel something on Tang San that made it somehow feel submissive, but as a king and one of the most bloodthirsty creatures in the ocean, its first thought was whether eating this human would be greatly beneficial for itself.
