Volume 1: Chapter 31: Springtail Fight
🕑 Added 2025-04-29 15:23:14 +0000 UTCIn the underwater city.
Unlike the previous gloomy appearance, Skadi successfully restarted the lighting array in the city.
The once dark city of Agor is brightly lit again.
Just different from the past——
“Gah!”
The little purple creature ran over with a wrench in its mouth.
“Dang!”
The wrench hit the ground from its mouth, making a noise and waking up the deep-sea hunter who was trying to repair the long-distance communication equipment.
"Thanks, Broken Tooth."
Touched the springtail that Zerg called [Broken Tooth].
The accelerated flapping of the wings on the back of the little springtail is proof of its happiness.
Skadi raised her head and looked into the distance——
One tenth of the buildings in the once towering city of Agor have disappeared.
There were only three worker bees in the past, but now their number has increased several times.
The worker bees coming and going carry the collected resources into the huge biological building.
On the ground grows a purple substance which Zerg calls "Creep".
to be honest--
This thing is very similar to Seaborn's [Endspeaker].
But it is different from [Endspeaker].
Skadi could feel—
When she steps on the fungal blanket, she can also absorb nutrients and energy from it.
If you fight on a fungal blanket, your endurance and combat capabilities will be improved.
The Deep Sea Hunter didn't understand the principle, but this seemed to be a sign that she was accepted.
Inexplicably, Skadi felt somewhat happy——
If Ishamara hadn't been pushing me in my mind.
Ignoring the Poseidon's consciousness still chattering in his mind, the Deep Sea Hunter picked up the wrench.
She found long-distance communication equipment in the destroyed city of Agor.
Perhaps it is possible to contact other deep-sea hunters through this device.
However, probably because it was damaged in the war, the communication equipment cannot be started now.
Skadi is trying to repair it.
Even though she had been holding the greatsword for who knows how long, her nimble hands were still enough to take on the task of screwing in the screws.
“Gah!”
The little springtail ran into the distant buildings again.
Broken Tooth would always pick up something from the building.
Sometimes it is a useful tool -
For example, wrenches, hammers, and electric drills.
Sometimes it's strange stuff -
Suspicious transparent condoms, torn women's underwear, suspicious magazines with unclear covers, etc.
Skadi usually puts away the former and clears out the latter.
Otherwise it will be troublesome if Zerg asks.
It is not the time for our little compatriots to learn this knowledge.
"Huh... I better relax for a while. Let me see how the chat group is going now."
The deep-sea hunter stood up and stretched, showing off his breathtaking curves.
The long white hair scattered like moonlight.
Skadi hasn't felt this relaxed in a long time.
In the sea, she will fight with Seaborn.
On land, she had to avoid getting hurt and bleeding.
But in this destroyed city of Agor, the deep-sea hunter felt a long-lost sense of security.
Especially when holding a small child.
That healing feeling...
She has been unable to forget it.
Small, soft, and has a pleasant smell.
It is a very reassuring thing to bury your head in their neck and breathe in the scent of your compatriots.
However, the little child had now entered the world of new group members, and she was busy repairing communication equipment and did not follow.
But recalling the previous chat records in the chat group, the new group member Talulah must also be a good person.
Zerg should get along very well with her.
Skadi called up the chat group interface and took a look—
“…”
The deep-sea hunter fell into silence.
Zerg's description is... as strange as always.
A black, twisting, hard, and explosive "snake".
Skadi looked odd.
"Is this... your way of... mating?"
"Can I still reproduce if I put it in my mouth like this?"
Ishamara was having wild thoughts again.
As usual, the Deep Sea Hunter ignored this guy.
【Happy little killer whale: What happened? 】
[Innocent Zerg: Kiana and Talulah are playing together! ]
【Happy little killer whale: ……】
[Happy little killer whale: Zerg, what do you understand as play? ]
[Innocent Zerg: Hmm, like a fight between Zerglings?]
"?"
No, why are they fighting again?
Skadi was a little confused.
Why is it that every time there’s a new guy, there seems to be a fight?
Traditional arts of this group?
She almost got into a fight with Kiana at the beginning.
“Gah!”
“Gah!”
At this moment, two fighting springtails rolled past the deep-sea hunter.
In addition to worker bees, the number of springtails has also increased.
But these springtails are different from Broken Teeth—
They have a neat "W"-shaped beak and no wings on their backs.
At this time, two fighting springtails were fighting fiercely.
One hopper rode on another hopper and touched its companion with its little feet.
“Slurp!”
The springtail that was stepped on immediately stuck out its tongue and licked the springtail above it.
“Slurp!”
The other springtail also launched a counterattack, licking its companion with its big pink tongue.
Then the two tongues entangled together.
Just like that, the two springtails rolled back and forth, determined to determine who would be the better of them all.
“…”
Skadi watched this scene in silence.
On the cute springtails, this kind of fighting actually looks funny, as if they are just playing.
But if it were on a human...
Girl, female fairies fighting?
The Deep Sea Hunter's expression turned strange.
Maybe I'm thinking a little weirdly?
She just couldn't imagine two women... fighting like springtails.
She raised his head slightly and looked upward, trying to stop her wandering thoughts.
"Skadi...why...why are two females...hugging each other?"
"Two females...cannot mate..."
The Poseidon consciousness in my mind is talking nonsense again.
God knows how Ishamara imagined it.
"Goooo?"
The purple balloon floating in the sky noticed the sight coming from below.
It put down the newspaper it had taken out from somewhere, and then scratched its head with another tentacle, as if it was thinking.
Then the purple balloon lowered its altitude and its tentacles stretched behind it.
“…”
Then, Skadi watched as the other party took out a cup of steaming tea.
"Goooo!"
Purple Balloon handed hot tea to a member of the swarm.
“…Thank you.”
The Deep Sea Hunter said this after being silent for a moment.
Well, her worldview has collapsed anyway.
It would be normal even if the other party took out newspapers and hot tea from the void.
"call……"
She drank the hot tea in one gulp.
I have to say, it tastes good. After drinking it, my confused brain became clear.
Well, better go and take a look.
Otherwise, if it was really a fight between female fairies, wouldn’t Zerg’s eyes be contaminated?
My compatriots values and outlook on life have not yet been formed!
[Happy Little Killer Whale: Zerg, what's going on now? ]
[Curious Zerg: Talulah is riding on Kiana! ]
