Andrea still did not give up. With the power of a few outstanding Magi gathered in one body, he was confident that he would be able to match up to the power of the Magus King. With him like this, how could he possibly be buried underwater for no reason and become the food of these nameless little fishes?

However, the situation had indeed turned out to be too disadvantageous for him.

The nameless little fish that he had killed were now the same as the rest of them. Even the hard outer bones of their heads were eaten clean by the fish. In contrast, as Andrea continued to release energy beams, his consumption of oxygen increased as well. The originally thin reserve of oxygen seemed to have dried up in an instant.

Along with the lack of oxygen, Andrea's mastery over magic power also decreased greatly. The energy beams shot out from his hands became increasingly weaker. At the same time, the energy shell s protecting him became more and more fragile.

Once the time limit had been set, the water pressure would first take Andrea's life without waiting for the nameless small fishes to attack.

Unless a miracle happened, he would definitely be buried at the bottom of the lake.

But would a miracle happen? Andrea did not believe in miracles, everything must be created by his own two hands. The result of waiting for a miracle was the front half of his body, spending his days in mediocrity. Only by tightly grasping his fate in his own hands would there be unlimited possibilities in his life.

A ray of light shot over.

That beam of light passed through the school of fish, passed through the light purple energy shell, and shone onto Andrea's face. Andrea subconsciously raised an arm and placed it in front of his eyes. He had stayed in the darkness for too long, and the current him was unable to adapt to such intense light.

Another ray of light shot over. It was as if someone had pointed a gigantic searchlight at him. Streaks of white light drove away the fish herds and wrapped Andrea, who was in the shell, completely inside.

Andrea's eyes gradually adapted to the white light, and then, he walked towards the ball of white light.

What was that? The huge searchlight at the bottom of the water was the door to heaven. Under the effects of the lack of oxygen, Andrea was not even able to tell if everything that was happening before his eyes was real or an illusion.

Perhaps he had already died at the bottom of the lake, and the water pressure had squeezed his internal organs into a ball of blood. In less than a second, the small fishes filled with sharp teeth had already devoured his body and his blood.

Perhaps, at this moment, he was already a soul that was heading towards his own heaven.

Andrea's mind was still a little muddled. Unstoppable thoughts occupied his brain, and the intense feeling of weakness caused his movements to become incomparably slow.

However, he still insisted on walking towards that ball of white light. In the ice-cold water, that ball of white light seemed to be the only warm part. The reason why he felt slightly warm was because that ball of white light was indeed emitting heat.

However, this time, it did not come out to hunt, but to direct the light of the true master of this region of water.

Within the white light, Andrea saw two tiny black dots. These two black dots slowly grew in size in his eyes, and in the end, became two human figures. How could there be anyone in deep water? Andrea was certain that he must have been hallucinating, or had already died.

"Brother, is that a human?" A girl's voice sounded out beside Andrea.

"What's going on? "How could a human come here?" The other voice belonged to a slightly older man.

But Andrea could no longer hear their conversation, and fainted. Beside Andrea, the light purple energy shell was also quickly fading away.

Before the energy shell completely disappeared, a aqueous membrane wrapped around Andrea's body. At the same time, the aqueous membrane had a lot of oxygen.

"Big brother, let's save him." the girl said.

"Never mind," the man said. "Humans are greedy and vicious, and they shouldn't be helped."

"But he doesn't look so bad. He has hands and feet like us. Well, he doesn't have scales." said the girl. "Don't humans have scales?"

"Put aside your curiosity, Father is summoning us."

"But I can't just watch him die here. Save him, it won't take long."

The man was silent. His sister had lived under the care of her elders since she was young, so she wasn't familiar with the affairs of the world. Although she knew that this kind of character would eventually cause her to suffer, as her brother, he was still unable to reprimand his cute little sister.

"Follow me as fast as you can. I'll go see my father first and explain the situation to him." In other words, he had almost tacitly allowed his sister to help this suspicious human.

"Thank you, thank you big brother!" The girl's voice sounded excited.

A figure with a long blade in his hand swam forward and quickly left the area.

The other figure remained where it was. Andrea laid in front of the figure quietly.

A pair of slender arms covered in green scales passed through the aqueous membrane and made contact with Andrea's body. But immediately, the arms seemed to have been electrocuted as they retracted. Some elders once said that all living things on the shore were full of horrible germs, but that was probably to scare little children. She wasn't young anymore, and she could already tell which of the adult lies were made up to trick children.

Once again, she carefully stretched her arms towards Andrea's body. This time, she successfully grabbed the clothes on his body. It was a good touch, and the clothes made from the wool on the shore were more comfortable and beautiful than the ones woven from seaweed. Under the shine of the white light, she was dumbstruck. Although there were no scales on the surface of her body, this human was surprisingly pleasing to her eyes.

She dragged Andrea's body, and swam underwater. In terms of speed, she was far inferior to his brother, but compared to humans, her swimming speed was already at an extremely high level. Even with a grown man trailing behind her, she swam faster than most fish.

After passing through the reef and fish herds, she brought Andrea to a group of buildings. Rather than saying they were buildings, it would be more accurate to say they were the ruins of a city. Most of the building was covered with seaweed, and most of it was broken. The streets were covered with shells, and a few people were unable to see the original veins of the city. The houses that were not very badly damaged were occupied by the aquatic animals. Huge aqueous membrane s covered these houses, and the aqueous membrane s were filled with air, preventing fish that lived in the water from entering.

She brought Andrea to her own room, which was one of the few houses in the underwater city that was still considered complete.

The house was also enveloped by a huge aqueous membrane. She pushed Andrea's body towards the aqueous membrane and the small aqueous membrane that was wrapping Andrea immediately merged into the big aqueous membrane that was wrapping around the house. Andrea also successfully passed through the aqueous membrane and landed inside it.
