CLACK-CLACK-CLACK-CLACK!
Forty-two miles east of the coast, the dark ocean floor shook like an earthquake as two million Armored Pincer-Crabs marched out of the Ten-Thousand-Fathom Deep Trench!
Leading the charge was General Tie-Qian (“Iron-Pincer”), the massive Rank 6 Early Golden Core King Crab whose barnacle-crusted shell was as wide as a two-story house. His two front pincers gleamed with cold metallic light, capable of snapping a whale’s spine in half like a dry twig.
Behind him, two million Rank 4 and Rank 5 giant crabs crawled across the seabed ten layers deep, while three million thirty-foot Deep-Sea Electric Eels led by Commander Lei-Man slithered through the dark water above them like a storm cloud of crackling blue lightning!
“There it is! That’s the land-rats’ glowing glass worm!”
General Tie-Qian pointed a giant iron pincer at the forty-foot-wide Undersea Panorama Train Tunnel advancing steadily across the leveled seabed toward the trench.
Inside the brightly lit glass tube, the silver Spirit-Furnace Locomotive and twenty velvet-lined sightseeing cars were rolling smoothly along the dual iron tracks. Through the crystal-clear diamond-quartz windows, the crab army could see hundreds of human and demon-beast passengers pointing at them, not with fear, but with hungry eyes—and several Wolf-Kin tourists were actually tying bibs around their necks!
