Chapter 807 Skywhale Overlord

Just the water pressure of the deep sea alone made most of Pangea\'s ocean depths unreachable. Now, she learned even more terrifying creatures lurking in it.

Alas, Emperor Varan smiled helplessly before saying, "I wouldn\'t be so sure about it, Empress Astoria."

"Could it be that sea monsters can survive on land?" Astoria asked with astonishment.

"I don\'t know about that. The Outer Sea has always been uncharted territory, Empress Astoria," Emperor Varan calmly shook his head before replying, "However, even though we are incapable of exploring it, we can still see part of it from a distance."

"Among the shadows of terrifying sea monsters that we have seen in the Outer Sea, one of them flies in the sky. Moreover, its mass is absolutely monstrous, spanning an estimated length of ten kilometers."

"Its strength is most definitely at the Demigod rank or even beyond. Presently, we haven\'t confirmed its exact species. However, we have labeled it as the Skywhale Overlord due to his distinct whale-like cry," Emperor Varan mentioned.

Even if the toxic seawater didn\'t stop them from venturing into the Outer Sea, the Skywhale Overlord\'s existence alone was enough reason to prevent anyone from ever trying to intrude into its territory.

"T-Ten kilometers in length…" Henrietta and Astoria uttered with stunned looks.

Besides the legend of the continent being the body of Golden Dragon Pangea, they had never heard of or seen any other life form of such sheer enormity.

Of course, the Skywhale Overlord was nothing compared to Golden Dragon Pangea. However, it was still an absolute behemoth of a being, even if its estimated size wasn\'t accurate.

\'Demigod-rank life forms generally don\'t exceed a thousand meters in size,\' Empyrean Scarletsea said to Henrietta.

\'However, this Skywhale Overlord is estimated to be ten kilometers long. Even if the estimation is off, this is not the size of a Demigod-rank life form. That Skywhale Overlord is most definitely at the Divine rank.\'

\'Moreover, it is higher up in the Divine rank at the very least,\' Empyrean Scarletsea added seriously.

\'It\'s actually that strong, Master?\' Henrietta was shocked.

However, Empyrean Scarletsea quickly corrected her, \'No, it\'s not that strong; it\'s AT LEAST that strong.\'

\'Even if that Skywhale Overlord has no spiritual wisdom and doesn\'t know how to cultivate, just being of that size alone makes it at least a Late-stage Divine Being. This is because the composition must be at this level at the very least to support it. If it is sentient, then its strength is likely even beyond that.\'

\'However, apart from some special lineages and mythical beast races, most life forms that could grow to such sizes are generally non-sentient beings incapable of developing spiritual wisdom,\' Empyrean Scarletsea explained.

\'I see…\' Henrietta quickly understood but still felt surprised nonetheless.

Nevertheless, she suddenly thought of something after learning the relationship between size and strength.

"Hold on. If the Skywhale Overlord is that big, then how big are the Transcendent-rank sea monsters usually?" Henrietta asked with a startled look.

"Transcendent-rank sea monsters are generally thirty meters to a hundred meters big. Some are even as big as two hundred meters long. As for anything bigger, it has never been hunted before, so it\'s hard to say," Emperor Varan stated.

"I see…" Henrietta nodded with understanding.

Fortunately, Transcendent-rank sea monsters were within the expected range and weren\'t greatly underestimated like the Skywhale Overlord.

However, that was also to be expected.

After all, Emperor Varan had never hunted Demigod-rank sea monsters or above. Thus, it was impossible to understand just how strong the Skywhale Overlord was.

Furthermore, its shadows were only seen from afar, making it more difficult to gauge its strength, let alone with limited knowledge.

"For your information, Transcendent-rank sea monster meat is an absolute delicacy. Not only does it taste great, but it also improves our physique. Its blood and organs are also great for brewing potent potions, and its bones are priceless materials for crafting Rank 5 equipment, weapons, and various tools," Emperor Varan mentioned.

"You\'re trying quite hard to strike a sale, Emperor Varan," Henrietta said with amusement.

"It doesn\'t hurt to try," Emperor Varan smiled wryly.

"Well, I didn\'t say you failed," Henrietta smiled back before admitting, "I am indeed in buying Transcendent-rank sea "It doesn\'t hurt to try," Emperor Varan smiled wryly.

"Well, I didn\'t say you failed," Henrietta smiled back before monster carcasses from you, Emperor Varan. It is hard not to be after how much you have told us about sea monsters."

"However, simply buying Transcendent-rank sea monster meat and materials from you would be quite costly in the long term. Thus, I propose a joint venture in hunting these sea monsters and splitting the profits."

"Although you won\'t be able to monopolize the sales and price if we do this, I believe the sharp increase in hunting will benefit your country either way. What do you think, Emperor Varan?" Henrietta proposed.

"I can\'t say I\'m not interested. However, we have to discuss this in detail," Emperor Varan replied.

It was hard to determine how much the Black Rose Empire and Holy Knight Empire could help his Great Ratholos Empire in hunting the sea monsters.

If they could only provide support in the hunting, he naturally needed to negotiate a bigger share on his end. Otherwise, he would be suffering a loss, considering his warriors would be taking on greater risks.

On the other hand, if they could pull their weight in the hunt, then he wouldn\'t mind a more equal split of the profits.

"Naturally," Henrietta nodded.

While Henrietta and Emperor Varan were discussing business, Astoria had other thoughts on her mind.

After contemplating for a while, she mentioned, "Emperor Varan, you mentioned these sea monsters come from the Outer Sea, which is also known as the Dead Sea. I don\'t understand how these creatures could survive in such a toxic environment."

"Furthermore, how can its meat be safe for consumption? There must be some side effects to it, no?" Astoria added.
