Chapter 658 Out of place
Li Qian rode on the Green Scaled Dragon Qizi and dived into the water. He stood on Qizi's back with his body wrapped in a bubble.

This bubble was created by Qizi.

Qizi's strength has reached the upper limit of the race's potential, the fifth level of Overlord. It is easy for him to create a bubble that can accommodate Li Qian.

Li Qian was inside the bubble, and his body kept sinking.

As we dive deeper, the light in the water becomes dimmer and dimmer.

Li Qian took out a high-intensity flashlight from his storage equipment to search.

Nothing was found.

He was not in a hurry and continued to dive.

There may be something wrong in this sea area, and the problem should be on the seabed. It is normal that we did not find it during the dive.

After diving for about ten minutes, they arrived at the bottom of the sea. Li Qian took a high-intensity flashlight and began to check carefully.

"It's strange, there's nothing unusual." Li Qian thought to himself, and couldn't help feeling a little confused.

He remained patient and continued searching. In this sea area, two crystal octopuses with strength levels "exceeding the standard" appeared in a concentrated manner. One of them had even mutated. It was unlikely to be a pure coincidence.

Li Qian was not in a hurry even though he found nothing while searching.

I've already come down, there's no point in being anxious.

In other words, now that they have come down, they must be searched more thoroughly.

Anyway, the wild pets patrolling the sea area have been almost cleared out, and there is nothing else to do next, so it doesn't matter if I waste some time here.

"Huh?" About a quarter of an hour later, when the strong flashlight shone on an area, Li Qian finally found something wrong.

There is an area that seems ordinary at first glance, but when you look closely, it is full of strangeness.

Li Qian stared at the area, observing it constantly, scanning it repeatedly, and finally found the strange place.

This area is an underwater hill. There are many such raised hills on the seabed. In theory, they would not attract Li Qian's attention at all.

But Li Qian noticed it.

The reason why he noticed this raised hill was because it looked "out of place".

Yes, it just doesn’t fit in.

At first glance, it seems nothing special, but if you look closely, you will find that the colors of the seaweed, corals, and even the rocks on the seabed in this hilly area are out of tune with other areas nearby.

It's like there's a mung bean mixed in a pile of yellow beans, or a yellow bean mixed in a pile of mung beans. It's very strange.

Li Qian noticed this strangeness, but he did not enter immediately. Instead, he observed the area around the underwater hills.

After observing it twice, he found that apart from this incompatibility, there was no other abnormality. Li Qian no longer hesitated and ordered Qizi to step in.

After entering, there were no unexpected situations and it was easy to get out again.

Li Qian took a few photos with the smart bracelet and then prepared to leave. However, just as he was about to leave, a light blue light attracted his attention.

Swimming towards the direction where the light blue light came from, Li Qian reached out to touch it, and soon felt a small piece of texture similar to that of a glass bead.

Looking closely, I saw that it was something like a gem embedded in the rock on the seabed.

"Master, I want it!"

Just as Li Qian's fingers touched the gem-like object, the Green Scaled Dragon Qizi under his feet actually let out a burst of desire. Hmm?
Li Qian "heard" the Green Scaled Dragon's desire through the soul contract between him and the Green Scaled Dragon Qizi, and felt somewhat puzzled.

Qizi actually wanted this gem-like thing.

After thinking about it, Li Qian stretched out his hand and started digging at the rock on the seabed.

Although I don't quite understand it, but since Qizi wants it, I'll just pick it off.

Li Qian was confident in his physical fitness and thought that he should have no problem picking out this gem-like thing.

Everything was just as he thought.

It really didn't take much effort to dig open an area, but after digging it open, he found that the area inside was larger and it was not a gem.

Based on the exposed elliptical area, Li Qian has roughly guessed that it should be a sphere.

This discovery made Li Qian even more curious.

He continued to dig deeper and deeper, and even took out a dagger from his storage equipment to assist him.

With the help of the dagger, the speed of picking was obviously faster, and at this time, Li Qian also discovered the unusualness of this sphere.

His dagger was very sharp, and when he was scratching it, it would inevitably produce some friction with the sphere.

But after rubbing and scraping, there was not even a trace left.

The sphere was able to withstand the scratches of the dagger without leaving any trace. This sphere was definitely extraordinary, which made Li Qian even more interested.

Soon, the entire sphere was picked out. It turned out to be a bead about the size of a basketball. The bead had a translucent texture and a sea blue color flowing inside. It looked very magical.

After taking out the ball, Li Qian could feel that Qizi was even more eager and couldn't wait to swallow it immediately.

"Don't worry, it will be yours sooner or later." Li Qian comforted her through the soul contract, and then put the ball into his storage equipment.

Next, he patrolled the area again, and apart from this place, he did not find anything else unusual.

He left this underwater area directly, and the Imperial Envoy Qizi returned to the sea surface. After returning to the sea surface, he casually said a few perfunctory words to the three people from Nanhua, and then Li Qian called Wu You and Mo Ziyu to prepare to leave.

Nanhua and the other two saw Li Qian's reaction and sensed something was wrong, but they didn't say much. Not long after Li Qian left, they also left.

On the way back, Wu You asked, "Are you not going to that island for training?"

Li Qian nodded. "No, I have something urgent to do. I have to go back to Yishan Island first."

"Did you find anything at the bottom of the sea?" Wu You immediately became curious when he heard this.

"I have to verify some things first, and then I'll tell you after that." Li Qian said directly without hiding anything.

It didn't take much time for the three of them to return to Yushan Island on the Jiliedun Falcon.

After returning to the supply station on Yishan Island and entering the hotel room, Li Qian did not have time to immediately call Professor Liang Huaizhen from the School of Archaeology at Shazhou Beast University.

After a brief chat and telling her about his discoveries, Li Qian hung up the phone and sent her the photos he had taken at the bottom of the sea.

After the photo was sent, Li Qian waited in the room.

About five minutes later, Teacher Liang Huaizhen called back and Li Qian answered the call immediately without any hesitation.
