Chapter 1248: Mermaid's Plea

But then again, the Earth's land area is only twenty-nine percent, while the ocean area accounts for seventy-one percent.

Li Nana then brought up another matter in a melancholic tone.

On the surface, the island looks unremarkable, but it extends over three hundred meters deep into the seabed.

If it were on land, it would be a mountain peak of three to four hundred meters, and this mountain is essentially hollow, with many caverns inside.

Over the past few thousand years, the merpeople discovered many small caves suitable for habitation.
