"Wow, Marie's brother is so cool, he can actually dive to the bottom of the sea!" A Little Girl exclaimed.
"Of course, brother and the others are members of the Magic Knight Squad!" Marie said proudly.
"This fish looks so delicious, wow, what a big lobster!" Charmy was shuttling back and forth in the water ball, just to get up close to the delicacies she had her eyes on!
"Hey, Noelle, get closer to the school of fish, Angel Marie wants to see them clearly!" Gauche said unhappily.
"Do you think this is easy for me right now!" Noelle was so angry she laughed. How long had she worked to make the Sea Dragons Cradle descend steadily? These ungrateful people actually dared to make demands—it was hilarious!
"The ocean currents are gradually becoming unstable!" Vanessa keenly sensed the changes in the sea.
"Indeed, as the water ball continues to descend, the pressure we are facing is getting stronger and stronger!" Asta also said seriously.
"The ocean is so scary..." Finral was already trembling and hiding under Yami's armpit.
"Get lost!" Yami kicked Finral over, feeling goosebumps all over his body. He then scanned his team and felt like someone was missing?
"Has anyone seen Gordon?" Magna had felt someone was missing just now, and after thinking for a while, he finally remembered who it was.
"Haven't seen him!" Luck shook his head, his gaze immediately drawn back to the scenery at the bottom of the sea.
"Well, we ended up forgetting Gordon after all..." Asta shook his head, but there was nothing they could do about it; Gordon just had too little presence.
"Brother, the image seems to be getting blurry!" Marie said as she looked at the flickering image.
"What's the reason for this?!" Gauche roared in anger, but then he froze because he saw a dozen water spouts suddenly erupt from the seabed like water snakes. These water spouts were massive, carrying a momentum that seemed capable of crushing everything!
"W-what is this?" Finral became even more terrified. As expected, the ground was much safer; he was never coming to the bottom of the sea again!
"This is the entrance to the Underwater Temple, and this is even after the magic power has been weakened. Noelle, charge in!" Yami was actually seeing it for the first time too, but he looked confident, as if he were certain they could get in. This undoubtedly gave everyone a lot of confidence.
"I'm charging!" It would be a lie to say Noelle wasn't nervous, but at that moment, a warm energy suddenly surged into her body from her shoulder, instantly dispelling her previous anxiety. "Asta?"
"Concentrate, Noelle. Even the Sea Dragons Cradle would be destroyed if it touched these water spouts, right?" Asta asked.
"Yeah, but it can still resist for a while if it hits the edge. It's just that these water spouts create a huge pulling force; once you get close, you'll be sucked in. But the current is too turbulent now, and I can't quite see the path ahead!" Noelle tried hard to keep her eyes open, but it had little effect.
"What? Noelle, don't joke around!" Finral said in terror.
"Do I look like I'm joking!" Noelle glared with her beautiful eyes.
"Even if you can't see, surpass your limits for me!" Yami barked.
"Noelle, I'll be your eyes!" When Asta opened his eyes again, they had turned into the bewitching Mangekyo Sharingan, possessing a unique beauty amidst the extreme eeriness. Vanessa, who was nearby, cried out that she couldn't take it!
"If you're going to help, just help. Why say such mushy things!" Noelle's face instantly turned red.
"Haha, how interesting!" Vanessa watched the interaction between the two and couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh.
"Damn it, the communication is completely cut off! Noelle, hurry up and find a place with good reception!" Gauche became irritable when he saw the image in the mirror suddenly cut off.
"Honestly, what time is it, and you're still thinking about communication?" Yami flared up instantly as he looked at his team members who couldn't distinguish between priorities.
"Holy crap, there's so much water! Princess No, are you sure you can get us out of here!" Magna panicked, completely panicked. He used fire magic and was naturally afraid of water, let alone the deep sea!
"Hahaha, Magna is actually scared!" Luck laughed happily, seemingly unaffected by the current environment.
"Who said I'm scared? I'm just worried the mission won't be completed!" Magna said, feigning composure.
"Now I suddenly feel like Gordon is a lucky guy!" Charmy's face was covered in tears. She just wanted to eat some deep-sea specialties; was it necessary to scare her like this!
"Noelle, to the left!" Through the Mangekyo Sharingan, Asta clearly saw every undercurrent in the water.
"Okay!" Noelle hurriedly began to act according to Asta's directions. Soon, she was surprised to find that the pulling force she felt was indeed much smaller!
Not only could Noelle feel it, but Yami and the others could too. Seeing the water orb gradually stabilize, Yami couldn't help but pat Asta on the shoulder. "Those eyes of yours are really something!"
"Yeah, yeah, they look so good I want to give them a kiss!" Vanessa said as she hugged Asta's head and gave him a kiss.
"Vanessa, can you show some restraint!" Asta's mouth twitched as he 'disgustedly' wiped away the saliva with his hand.
"Hehe, no!" Vanessa said with rare playfulness.
"Argh! Are they flirting?!" Noelle suddenly felt as if she had eaten ten thousand pounds of vinegar; she was not doing well at all.
"Noelle, don't get distracted!" Asta noticed Noelle's unstable state and hurriedly spoke.
"I know!" Noelle pouted, thinking to herself that if he hadn't let someone else kiss him, would she have been distracted?
"The water current is slowing down. I think I see the exit!" Vanessa said excitedly.
"Yeah, I see it too!" Asta could be said to see it most clearly. The water ahead was no longer surging with undercurrents; instead, light that only existed on the surface appeared!
After a while, Noelle, controlling the Sea Dragons Cradle, finally rushed out of the undercurrent zone!
"We're out!" Magna cheered as he looked at the clear, sunlit waters.
"Did we succeed?" Noelle herself was stunned. She had never imagined that there would be such a beautiful place at the bottom of the sea!
