Chapter 287: The Trench

Matthew set off with Dzy as his guide. They rode a mosasaur with armour plating to head toward the trench where the Kraken dwelt. The mosasaur was swimming really fast and it was easy to lose a grip on their reigns, but Matthew was able to hold on. They lay their bodies flat on the mosasaurs to reduce drag so that the mosasaurs can swim faster.

Still, the trench was far away. On the way there, Matthew got a glimpse of the cities within the Whale Clan territory. It was near the surface and had really large houses that were spherical in shape and connected by what seemed like tubes made from bubbles. Matthew could sense people in the towns, but all their auras were dull as if they were lifeless. No, that wasn’t the correct way of describing. It was like they lacked any emotion and thought, unconscious, yet they were moving as if everything was normal.
