Ashes Of Deep Sea

Chapter 479 - 479 480 Blueprint

?Chapter 479: Chapter 480: Blueprint Chapter 479: Chapter 480: Blueprint As the lights from the submersible swept across the surroundings, the figures floating in the dark waters came fully into Duncan’s view—people, an uncountable number of people, floating in the water.

However, as Duncan observed them more carefully, he noticed something odd about these human figures.

They had no facial features, not even distinct and clear limbs, nor were they clothed—their forms were merely rough approximations of human shapes, with coarse textures and pitch-black hues on the surface.

It was as if they were clay figures crudely fashioned from black mud.

Duncan relayed the details of what he was seeing to Agatha.

“Only silhouettes?” Agatha’s tone was full of surprise and uncertainty, “But in my eyes… they seem to radiate a spiritual luminosity like the living people within the City-State…”

Duncan did not respond but simply furrowed his brows slightly, cautiously steering the submersible closer to a “figure” floating not far outside the porthole.

The water currents stirred by the submersible disrupted the deep-sea tranquility, causing the pitch-black human-shaped object to slowly roll at an angle in the water, its flat and smooth spherical “head” turning towards the direction of the porthole first, followed by its short, bare, and seemingly incomplete arm structures.

The mechanical arm extended slowly forward, its grappling hook resting on the torso of the figure, gingerly prodding at it.

It showed no response, exhibited no signs of “life.”

Duncan raised his head again, gazing through the porthole at the silently floating human shapes in the distance, observing how they extended further away in the light until finally disappearing into the darkness of the deep sea.

How many were there? Thousands? Tens of thousands? Or perhaps several million?
