Quick Transmigration: Goddess Of My Imagination

Chapter 624 - Underworld Hound (1)

"First of all, do you know anything about that seabed gate? Somehow, I feel you know something more than everyone else." Kenji made a steeple of his fingers.

"Unfortunately, I don't know much about that mysterious seabed gate. May I know of the military and Esper Association's plans for it?" Elysia shook her head.

"Russia is planning to bomb the eastern ruins to create an entrance. America will conduct further research after we eradicate that seabed monster. Britain and China are planning to bring out the ancient gate to the surface, but that has not been agreed as there is no further information about the object." Kenji heaved a subtle sigh.

He then glanced at Sylvia. This girl was just as mysterious as Elysia. It still made him a little uneasy that he didn't know anything about their origin. They occasionally used an unknown foreign language to converse with each other. Still, that language was simply not registered in the database at all.

"So, we're going to do underwater exploration using a submarine? If so, how are we going to exterminate that seabed monster? This joint operation will only ask us to be cannon fooders?" Elysia raised an eyebrow. She could understand that they were at a disadvantage in this operation.

"Well, I couldn't help it. However, the other four countries cornered us for the role simply because Japan was the last country to leave this area before it was Russia and America's turn." Kenji clenched his hands into fists.

"Tch, they're just cooperating to corner us for something that's most risky. If there are a lot of monsters, we'll just have to blow them all to ashes. Who cares about that gate." Mitsuzuka took off his military mask furiously.

"That's a shame. What's our plan then? Destroy that monster with missiles and bombs?" Elysia stroked the cat in her lap gently.

"Well, that's one of our plans. However, we'll also send four ability users to exterminate that monster if it fails. If anything bad happens, we'll back off and leave everything to Russia and America to sort it out." Kenji pursed his lips and nodded.

"Alright, we're leaving soon, right? Now, I need some details about the ruins of the seabed down there. What humans have discovered after all these years of research." Elysia returned to the main topic of the thing she wanted to know.

Kenji didn't hesitate to share some general information with Elysia. Mitsuzuka even let the secret information be known to these girls.

After that, troops from Japan sent three war submarines to participate in this operation. Kenji would be the leader of the squads, while Elysia insisted on joining the vanguard.

"Alright, we'll be leaving soon." Kenji said goodbye to his father.

"Hm, come back here safe and sound. This isn't a battle between life and death." Mitsuzuka patted his son on the shoulder.

Kenji just nodded and glanced sideways. His daughter said many prayers and words of concern to her friends as if she was unwilling to let them participate in the vanguard squad.

"Hehe, please don't worry too much, Erina-san. We're only there to research something, not to fight an invasion by a swarm of monsters." Elysia couldn't help but smile in amusement at Erina's antics.

"Mm, I'll be waiting for you here. So, hurry back, okay?" Erina held Elysia's hand with concern.

Mitsuzuka and Kenji were still shocked about Erina's care and were close to Elysia. This wasn't the first time they had come to that conclusion, but Elysia did look exceptional from any angle.

"Mm, pray for us. It's an easy mission." Elysia waved her hand. She and the group then left the command room.

"Nee, grandfather, is everything going to be okay? I know it's just a mission that sounds easy, but I feel uncomfortable." Erina clutched her hand in her upper chest.

"We'll be monitoring everything from here. Twenty war submarines will be launched, and that's enough to crush the ancient ruins into rubble." Mitsuzuka folded her arms and stared at the jumbo screens.

He was the one who would be in charge of leading the operation of the Japanese troops in this command room while his son plunged into the vanguard group. Not to mention those two girls and that cat also participated.

A few moments later, the war submarines came out of the mothership and headed straight for the seabed.

"Wow, wow, we dive with these iron machines. Machines like these are the forte of the dwarves. But, the humans dominate this world." Sylvia looked out the window and surveyed the underwater world.

"..." Vanessa climbed onto her master's shoulder to observe the sea world as well. She could see lots of fish of various sizes and colors. They looked delicious.

"The world of the deep ocean is scary. Whether you realize it or not, the creatures that live there have strange shapes, and some of them are terrifying. Not to mention, it's so dark there. It's like we're about to enter an abyss." Elysia glanced down, but she immediately averted her gaze.

"Hehe, the abyss will look back at you if you look at it. So, don't look at the abyss, Ely." Sylvia chuckled lightly and waved her hand towards the window.

"When the abyss sees you, you wave your hand to say hello, Sylvi?" Elysia didn't know what to say when she saw her devil friend's behavior.

"I'm not waving my hand at the abyss. Look over here. It's the ever-curious pufferfish. Hey, is it going to follow us to the bottom of the deep ocean?" Sylvia pointed to a yellow fish that had attached itself to the window.

"Hmm? The deep ocean is not your place to visit, little one. Go back to where you came from. Have a nice day." Elysia smiled and flicked her finger to the window.

"Ah, the pufferfish is not allowed to come along." Sylvia was amused to see the fish bounce off due to Elysia's subtle shockwave.

"..." Kenji and the armed elites didn't know what to say at the sight of these two girls.

They set out for a critical mission, but these girls only treated this as marine tourism. Not to mention, neither of them knew what these two girls were talking about, yet they could understand that these girls were just joking around.

"Please don't mind them. Believe it or not, they are much more prepared than all of you for everything." Kenji folded his arms and turned his attention away from the two girls.

"Yes, sir." The elite soldiers didn't dare doubt or question their leader's statement.

They arrived near an ancient ruin in the deep ocean about an hour later.

"We will launch some missiles to clear the way in. All squads ready. Japan, how about you?" The Russian leader delivered a notification to Kenji.

"We are ready to enter the battle if necessary. Start this operation at any time." Kenji responded with a firm intonation towards the monitor.

"Affirmative, we will become a reinforcement force if you can't deal with the fanged sea monster." Tang Zhou laughed lightly in his offer of help.

"Understood. We accept your offer, Admiral Tang Zhou." Kenji wasn't triggered by that kind of taunt. He only used it as a guarantee of a promise.

"Alright, all troops, get ready! Hahaha, we will uncover yet another world's mystery here." The American leader laughed excitedly.

With that being said, four Russian warships launched one missile each towards the ancient eastern ruins.

*Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!*

Four successive explosions shook the seabed slightly. The submarines then direct the lighting towards the large hole created by the blast.

Behind a solid four-tiered wall, an ancient black-gray gate appeared before the watchful eye of all squads.

They could sense a sinister aura from the gate for some unknown reason regardless of their distance.

However, their first objective right now was to eradicate that seabed monster.

"Look for that seabed monster. Pay attention to all the sonar and radar. We'll catch the creature if possible." Kenji gave his command to his squads.

"No living things were detected in ruins, sir." One of the elite reported the results of the radar and sonar.

"Hmm, that thing obviously won't be detected by even sophisticated equipment. Look over there, eighteen degrees to the east of the ancient gate. That monster is watching us in the shadow with its bloodshot eyes." Elysia informed the others in a neutral tone.

"!!!" The entire Japanese squads on the three submarines could hear that from Kenji's still-lit network.

They immediately pointed their surveillance cameras in the intended direction. Sure enough, a black mass like a liquid was watching them. Its bloodshot eyes give a bad omen.

"Ah, it shot towards us!" Elysia shouted, and the squads immediately prepared to attack.

Unfortunately, that monster simply penetrated the nearby submarine like a shadow and entered the command room with a savage roar.

*Roar!*

"Everyone, it has come to us instead. Defeat this monster!" Kenji shouted and entered into his close-range battle stance.

*Bam!*

The nearby elites were simply smashed against the wall by the tail lash of the shadow-like monster.

"Know your place, underworld hound. This is not the scenario I was expecting." Sylvia immediately moved and launched an irritated kick.

"Hau..." The shadow-like monster growled in pain. It was shocking because the physical attack could inflict pain.

Sylvia then unleashed several punches and kicks. It was like she was bullying an arrogant underworld hound to teach it a valuable lesson.

"..." Kenji and the elites in the command room were speechless about what was happening in front of them. That shadow-like monster stood no chance to win against this white-haired girl.

The shadow-like monster was a bit desperate. It transformed into a flash of shadow and aimed at the weakest ones.. A defenseless girl with a cat over there looked a lot like soft prey.
