Chapter 2012: The First Primordial To Awaken
2012 The First Primordial To Awaken
Adrian said goodbye to Piggy Bank while the latter thanked him for helping him. Piggy Bank asked if he could help Adrian with the current problem in his mind, but the latter refused. Adrian knew that Piggy Bank would not be able to help him with the next task as it involves gods.
Adrian basically got told that the effects of the breach has now been confirmed. The God of Death Hades has checked Tartarus and saw that the seals on the Titans were now weaker than before. The seals still held the power of the Titans, but they are no longer as bound as before. Even the Hecatoncheires need to be incredibly vigilant of the Titans as they might attack them.
Due to this, the God of Death Hades had to increase his vigilance over at Tartarus and visit it from time to time. The Titans did not look like they were about to break free, but the God of Death Hades felt that they were biding their time. The God of Death Hades has this sneaking suspicion that the Titans were once again waiting for someone to sneak them out.
Adrian wanted to immediately check with the God of Death Hades on the status, but he is also busy. He was given news that the port towns of the world were having some strange occurrences. Adrian knew that such things should be ignored but this is happening to all of the port towns in the central continent. If it was only happening to one or two then he would have ignored it, but it is happening to all.
"The Shadow Unit is really effective in getting news and arranging them. I should really give them some sort of bonus or maybe go to the Shadow Realm to get some materials for them." Adrian thought as a powerful wave of energy similar to divine energy but different suddenly washed over his entire body.
"This is Primordial Energy!" Adrian muttered as his gazed pointed to the location where the origin of the wave of energy was from.
The port towns in each city were already having such a difficult time because most of the seafood that they get are either dead upon washing up shore or incredibly destroyed by other predatory sea creatures. Even the waters near the shore were no longer safe to fish as the predatory sea monsters have come to them. The lords or kingdoms have dispatched people to drive away the sea monsters as this is a crisis on their end.
The sea route is one of the most important routes for trade since mass air travel is only possible in the Gnome Kingdom. The use of airships is mostly for royalty or the main army if they are not affiliated with the Gnome Kingdom. The cost of operating airships is not cheap as well and mostly smaller ones are used for transportation. The small airships can only carry fifty people at max capacity which is why it is not used for the transportation of goods.

Just as the players above water were thinking of why the sea monsters were attacking up close to the shore, the players that have practically lived in the oceans and seas of the main world know why. The entire ocean world is now at war which is not broadcasted to much of the player base since only a few players have acquired aquatic races since they are not yet unlocked.
The only aquatic race that is unlocked are the beast kin water species, but they often live near land. They can swim in the deep oceans and seas, but the Selvaggian water species that lives on water itself is still sealed. It seems that there are special rituals or ways to become a Shark Selvaggian for example and it is not by creating one in the main interface.
Thanks to Kabrakan unlocking the Selvaggian Race, the underwater world of the main world has finally been started to be explored. The exploration has only been started as only 5% of the oceans and seas have been mapped but it was a good start. This mapping would have continued if the races that purely lived in the oceans and seas did not start their war for conquest.
The players knew that the oceans and seas of the main world are all controlled by different races. The races that they know of are the merman race, the Naga race, the Whale Beast Kins, and the Scyllas. All of them are known for controlling parts of the seas and oceans. In fact, sailors would often throw some treasure chest in the middle of the ocean or sea routes as offerings in order to let them pass.
Unbeknownst to the players and even to the ones that mostly play in the oceans and seas, the merman race suddenly started their conquest of all the oceans and seas. The other ocean and sea kingdoms were shocked to the sudden invasion of the merman race that they did not have ample preparations. Smaller sea and ocean races were subdued by the might of the merman race which made them occupy 30% of the world's oceans and seas.
The current battle that was happening in the ocean right now is the fight between the Merman race and the Naga race. They were fighting in the Green Garland Reef when the powers of their clash finally awakened the sleeping monster in that location. A Primordial Beast that is said to be as large as the ocean itself and could swallow the seas if it wants to.
[The Leviathan, Primordial Beast of the Sea, has fully awoken from its slumber and destroyed its seal.]
As soon as all the voice of the world announced the coming of a powerful beast, a burst of energy swept across the central continent and other continents that were near. The energy of The Leviathan was so powerful that it almost woke up some of the sleeping ocean primordial beasts. The fight between the Merman Race and the Naga Race has completely destroyed the seal of The Leviathan.
The Merman Race and the Naga Race knew of the legends regarding the location they were fighting at. It was the Green Garland Reef where it is said that a powerful sea beast was sealed by the gods in order for the seas to be calm. They did not know that this very legend is indeed real for they have now unsealed the powerful sea beast.
The Leviathan was indeed a Primordial Beast as it is said to be one of the first creations of the Creator. It is said to have been created with two other Primordial Beasts that represent other aspects of the world. The Leviathan is said to have been created to rule the seas which is why it has a large serpentine body. Unlike its serpentine appearance, The Leviathan has scales that of a fish rather than that of a dragon which differentiates them from each other.
They often thought of The Leviathan as a serpentine dragon, but they are wrong because it was created before the dragons. Unlike the serpentine dragons, The Leviathan does not have arms or any appendages at all. It was the same size as the reef it was sealed in, and that reef spanned at least 100 miles.
Upon seeing The Leviathan, the Merman Race and the Naga Race that were at war has started to flee for their lives. They did not care who won as the primordial beast before them is a monster that could destroy a vast kingdom within a day if it wished to. The two warring races thought that The Leviathan would start an indiscriminate massacre, but they were wrong. A powerful will suddenly enveloped all of them which made them halt in their swimming.
"The Mother of the Seas has awakened and all of you fled instead of bowing down to me? If all of you wish to keep your lives, then bow down to the Ruler of the Seas." A clear feminine voice that is filled with prestige and terror echoed in the minds of the two races that were escaping.
The Leviathan called itself the Mother of the Seas when it never had a motherly nature like that in the first place. The Merman Race and Naga Race were unsure why she called herself the Mother of the Seas when they know that title is reserved for a goddess that all water races choose to never utter the name. Seeing that no one was bowing to her, The Leviathan casually swiped the tip of her tail and erased 20% of the armies of both races.
"We greet the Mother of the Seas!" The Naga Race was the first to bow as they looked at The Leviathan with respect as their serpentine qualities made them share some sort of connection.
"We give honor to the Mother of the Seas!" The Merman Race followed up as the dead glare from The Leviathan made them all bow down.
