Chapter 958: King Kordax
[Abyssal Trenches - Bone Palace - King Kordax’s POV]
The Abyssal Trench is one of the most perilous parts of the sea.
Long before the apocalypse, scientists attempted to explore the sea; however, after numerous failed attempts and many deaths, they abandoned the idea.
Their reason was that some things are not meant to be explored.
And they were right—the sea is not a place that can be explored.
It houses some of the most dangerous beings in the world, and the Abyssal Trench is the most dangerous part of them all.
Currently, within the Abyssal Trench, terrifying sea monsters — beings humans had never laid eyes on before — line up in a chaotic display of strength and brutality.
Most are mutated forms of sea beasts that humans used to prey on before and during the apocalypse. Now, looking at them, one can only see the danger they pose.
There are thousands of them, their aura not paling in comparison to the humans.
In fact, as one heads toward the Bone Palace standing imposingly atop a small hill, the strength of the sea monsters only seems to rise.
This shows the hierarchy, and while every last one of them is a sea monster, they all seem to understand this hierarchy, so none is breaking it.
Most are complete monsters, while some are a combination of humanoids and monsters. Sharks have human-like bodies and shark-like heads. Crabs have twisted human-like bodies, crab legs, and even more horrific parts.
