Chapter 2046: New Race and a God’s Gift
?
[The Deep Ones are now considered as beings that are part of Pandemonium.]
[The nature of the Deep Ones will now start to change.]
[The Deep Ones can now be chosen as a race for all new yers.]
[yers that want to change their race to the Deep Ones must gather at the appointed holy ce of the God of Life Dagon called the Deep Spring.]
Another batch of notifications started to get received but all of them were world messages. The yers were shocked that there was now another race they can choose when creating characters or even change to. The Deep Ones are beings that were created by the God of Life Dagon when he was a dark god before but now, they are considered beings of Pandemonium.
The changes on the Deep Ones could be evidently seen as Altum started to change his skin color. His muddled and dirty looking scales suddenly started to be more vibrant and no longer monotone. He can still switch to the murky color as it seems to have be a camouge skill. The Deep Ones no longer has in or murky colored scales or fins and became colorful.
"I mean... I actually thought that the Deep Ones were originally very colorful. It is said that beings that lurk in the depths are very colorful. I guess you could say that they have be true Deep Ones." Adrian muttered.
The arrival of the Deep Ones suddenly became a game changer to the yers because there was no race that could dive into water. Even the Selvaggian Race have limited options for water dwellers and are often locked in deep sea divers. The Deep Ones are not like this because they are beings that naturally live in deep waters due to the Blessing of the Depths.
[Your territory, Avalon, has been appointed as a holy ce by the God of Life Dagon.]
[He has created the Deep Spring in your territory as an additional reward for your exceptional abilities in aiding him.]
[All yers that contributed to the God of Life Dagon''s ascension will gain bonus stats that they can distribute.]
[You have gained 10 bonus stats that you can distribute freely.]
Adrian is shocked by the notifications that he specifically received as he gained a holy ce just like that. The Tree of Life and Death is already considered a holy ce as it symbolizes the Twin Gods. The God of Life Dagon also gave his territory the Deep Spring which could birth and create Deep Ones. It was then he noticed that theke where the God of Life Dagon was sealed is gone as if it was moved through time and space.
"Do not tell me that he moved argeke like that?!" Adrian eximed in shock as he immediately told all his guild members that they will return to the territory.

"Since when did Avalon have ake under the floating inds?" One of the yers that has recently visited Avalon asked as it was not there when she arrived yesterday.
"We are also investigating this. Until we have a detailed investigation, please do not get in theke." One of the Daemos Corps members stated.
"Theke has divine energy of a god. It seems that some beings are even spawning in." Old Man Pann stated as he was looking at the odd sight of a divineke appearing just below them.
Old Man Pann did not even feel the space twist until it was already ced there. Both him and Elder Ascalor did not even sense it which meant that a great deal of divine energy was used. It is something that they cannot easily interject when the medium was divine energy. They can send theke back to where it came from but there was no hostile intent in the beings that rose from theke.
"Oi!? Are they not one of those fish kid''s people?" Old Man Pann asked Elder Ascalor as he remembered that he tasked Altum to catch some seafood back then.
"They are called the Deep Ones, but they seem to have different energy wavelengthspared to before. They no longer feel like outsiders of this universe as if they have been integrated. The world has truly epted them, and they no longer have this creepy energy around them." Elder Ascalor stated.
"It might be the brat''s doing. I think I saw the Light of Ascension earlier. Maybe the god that created them ascended to be a god of this world. I would like to study them as they suddenly underwent a mutation when they were epted as true residents of this world. The brat really does make my old life worth living because of the interesting things that he does." Old Man Pann stated as his eyes suddenly made a glint as he looked at a Deep One.
"Greetings, I am called Deepa. I am the current Elder Deep One that leads our race that have been epted." Deepa stated as she was the current priestess of the Deep Ones chosen by the God of Life Dagon.
The changes in the Deep Ones are not just skin color as they now resemble Altum much more. They look more humanlike in appearance that they only have fins as ears, webbed feet and hands, and fish scales in certain parts of their body. Although, they can change to a more monstrous like form when they need to be in deep waters. Their new bodies change to adapt to the surface world as if they became amphibious.
"It seems that it is not just your skin color that changed but your intelligence also increased. Back then, all of you only spoke in a weird fish noise by moving your gills and clicking your tongues. The only one that was able to speak was your champion. If that is the case, then please enlighten us why a divineke suddenly appeared here." Elder Ascalor stated.
"I should be the one exining that." Adrian stated as he and his guild members suddenly appeared above the divineke.
"Our benefactor and champion have arrived." High Priestess Deepa stated.
Adrian thanked the elders that they did not suddenly start destroying things, but he was met with a re when he told them that. He also introduced himself to the High Priestess Deepa which rarely appeared as she was the one taking care of the God of Life Dagon inside theke. Only a few warriors weremanded to roam about to check the area when the God of Life Dagon was still in theke.
"Thiske is called the Deep Spring. It is not a spring so why is it called that?" Old Man Pann asked.
"Thiske is actually produced from a spring below that taken in the divine energy of our god. Although, the spring itself is not that potent anymore... it would still be able to heal minor injuries if people were to bathe in it. It can also heal fatigue that has umted in the body. The High Priestess Deepa stated.
"Oh! I should try it once then. I want to rest my old bones. Are animals also allowed?" Old Man Pann asked.
"It is allowed as long as they do note close to the Sanctum of the Deep located at the bottom where the Deep Ones stay. As we are encroaching upon the territory of a Lord, we would like to ask your permission to live here. Only the Deep Spring was given as a present and not us which is why we are humbly asking to stay." High Priestess Deepa stated.
"I have no problem with that as you are Altum''s people." Adrian stated as he epted the stay of the Deep Ones in his territory.
"Thank you very much! We shall be good citizens of your territory." The High Priestess Deepa stated as she bowed to Adrian.
"That is not fair, guild master! You rejected me when I asked if the angels and Nephilim could move here!" Ark suddenly interjected.
"The angels have persecuted most of the residents here which is why I did not agree. Also, you already established a town so that is no longer a problem." Adrian stated.
"Now that you mention it, I need to return as there are things that need to be done as well. Remember that Dawn and Dusk Town is a part of your territory. So, please send us the delicious crops as well." Ark stated as he and others left for the small territory he is managing.
"Now then, am I correct to assume that people can change to a Deep One here?" Adrian asked. "Yes, Lord Equinox. They will need toplete the Ritual of the Deep to be one, but they can definitely do so." High Priestess Deepa stated.
"You all heard her! All those that want to be Deep Ones can do the Ritual of the Deep. Still, I believe that one must wait their turn. The Deep One Warriors can easily drown any unruly people." Adrian stated to all the yers that were looking at them.
