Global sea levels rose rapidly, submerging the continents. Humanity could survive only on floating abandoned aircraft carriers and steel islands. In the endless deep sea lurked countless invincible beasts known as “Abyssal Overlords.” They were not living creatures, but embodiments of natural disasters, each governed by an absolute “maritime calamity rule.” For example: encounter a ship in the fog and you are doomed; hear a siren’s song and you must jump into the sea.
Shen Yuan transmigrated into this world and became the captain of a dilapidated salvage ship. He had no powerful weapons, only a copy of the Captain’s Log salvaged from the abyss. It could record the rules of the Abyssal Overlords, but at a price: each entry caused part of Shen Yuan’s body to undergo “deep-sea mutation,” growing scales, gills, or tentacles.
To fight the invincible beasts, Shen Yuan had no choice but to recruit “freak crew members” who had also been infected by mutation, and use the “mutation pieces” in their bodies to master different deep-sea rules.
“An S-rank calamity zone governed by the ‘Fog Giant Kun’ has been spotted ahead!” the first mate cried in terror.
Shen Yuan calmly took a sip of rum and opened the third dark-golden vertical eye that had grown in the middle of his brow. “What are you panicking for? Throw the second mate overboard to exploit the bug. Hard to port, we’re going through!”
