Cthulhu Gonfalon

Sui Xiong flew at a fast speed and reached Angry Tide Heimsarah’s resting place quickly.

Upon arrival, however, he was mystified.

“This is the place, right? Did I make a mistake?”

He carefully observed the area but could not believe his eyes.

Previously, Angry Tide Heimsarah had been sleeping on a plain sea base. However, many changes had taken place! Old hens had become ducks; how did such a plain sea base become a vast deep trench?

Although it could be said that the great wilderness had uncanny workmanship, a sea base still couldn’t transform so easily… This trench was especially deep, as well.

Sui Xiong gazed far and wide and still could not feel the trench’s base until he used magic.

However, he was sure that this was the right place. His old friend Angry Tide Heimsarah was resting on the floor, motionless like a hibernating saltwater fish.

Angry Tide Heimsarah’s body was long and slender, with tinges of black.

There was a game which claimed that there a ship which was anthropomorphized and painted with beautiful girls. These girls were divided into small teams to eliminate the strange deep-sea monsters to acquire new sisters and resources to build ships. Although Sui Xiong was not familiar with this game, he had visualized this scene with the help of a fat brother who liked to cross-dress as the latter had wanted to suggest a new character. Regrettably, the girl he had painted was not popular with the players, and many said that the country’s ship had been transformed and could only be used to view a warehouse…

The game often organized activities to attack strong enemies, with the prize naturally being sought after ladies and ships. Most of these activities were tough, and many players were unable to reap prizes despite playing till the end. These players would then name themselves saltwater fish along the lines of the famous quote, “If one has no dreams, what differs humans from saltwater fish?”

Those who had no goals were saltwater fish, those who had their dreams dashed were also similarly labeled.

Angry Tide Heimsarah really did resemble a fish as he lived in the sea, and 80% of his body was made out of seawater like a saltwater fish.

As Sui Xiong entertained these daft thoughts, he followed the trench to the base of the sea.

Just as he was about to greet Angry Tide Heimsarah, he realized that Angry Tide Heimsarah was not even awake but was, in fact, in a deep slumber.

Sui Xiong was shocked and rubbed his eyes to ensure he was not seeing things. Angry Tide Heimsarah was still sleeping and deeply so, his body rising and falling evenly with each breath. There was even a huge bubble where his mouth was which grew and shrank with his breathing, just like a cartoon.

But… if he was asleep, where did this trench come from?

Sui Xiong glanced at Angry Tide Heimsarah for a while before coming to an understanding. As Angry Tide Heimsarah slept, his fins expanded and contracted, and he managed to absorb sand to his body. His body still functioned while he hibernated ad he was able to eat and vomit, creating a trench.

You’re really something, Angry Tide Heimsarah!

Witnessing this, Sui Xiong could not help but feel shocked.

“Even though you’re sleeping, you’re able to absorb sand and make a trench… You’re really a genius!”

As he said this, he had another shocking thought. Where did all the food that Angry Tide Heimsarah consume go to?

Because he was curious, Sui Xiong couldn’t resist using magic to check out the situation and realized that Angry Tide Heimsarah had opened a half plane in his stomach where the resources he consumed were transformed into materials for the half plane. This half plane was like a small world where resources were needed to build it up. No wonder Angry Tide Heimsarah had consumed so much food!

Sui Xiong smiled slightly with this realization and used his powers to directly remove a layer of rock from the bottom of the sea at least 200 to 300 miles away. He did not do things crudely, unlike Angry Tide Heimsarah. The sea base concerned many creatures’ lives, and it could not be randomly destroyed. Because of that, he chose to directly draw from the rock formations instead. This was only something those with higher powers could do. With these rock sediments, he proceeded to crumble them and sent them into Angry Tide Heimsarah’s small world.

A piece of rock formation about 200 to 300 miles long possessed a shocking amount of material. With this boost, Angry Tide Heimsarah’s small world currently possessed sufficient materials, and with a violent gust of wind, the ground and sea began to take shape. However, this process was slow, and Sui Xiong had to wait for a few days to watch it progress. Other than ascertaining Angry Tide Heimsarah had ample material, he was unsure of the exact time needed for this process to be complete. However, he was calm as it was not an urgent method. When it was complete, this was when Angry Tide Heimsarah would awaken. By then, he would already have finished crossing the demigod stage into the “god-to-be” stage.

“God-to-be” stage referred to gods who possessed a large amount of godly power but had not confirmed their status. Actually, strictly speaking, Sui Xiong was already a god-to-be.

Normally, god-to-be gods had a little less power than legitimate gods, but Sui Xiong was an exception. From Angry Tide Heimsarah’s situation, he was not in a “special” category, and when Angry Tide Heimsarah awoke, he would be close to the weak Divine Power stage. Sui Xiong would then need to make preparations to become a legitimate god.

However, Angry Tide Heimsarah was on good terms with Sui Xiong, who was gracious and helpful. Thus, even if Angry Tide Heimsarah did not become a god with his own abilities, he could take a shortcut and become a patron saint, such as being Garth City’s sea patron saint.

Although patron saints were of the lower rank of gods, it was still a legitimate god title. Furthermore, it was a stable position as long as the place continued to grow.

As of today, there had been many patron saints in different areas, but the main cause of death was in war. No one had died due to failing to perform faith as a god. Thus, it could be seen that this was a safe role and had assured benefits.

Sui Xiong smiled and left. He wanted to find Leon to discuss awarding Angry Tide Heimsarah the title of “Garth City’s sea patron saint.”
