Chapter 178: Chapter 159: There Are Many Races in the Deep Sea Region

At least in her past life, right up until the moment of her death, she had never encountered other races. Or perhaps she had, but simply hadn’t recognized them.

A new life meant new experiences. She couldn’t rely entirely on the experiences of her past life to deal with everything. Because of her rebirth, the butterfly effect had long since begun.

Just like now—she had met Void Beast Atticus early and obtained the new Skill, Nature. Because of this, she was able to learn secrets from Void Beast Atticus that had only eventually become common knowledge among all players in her past life.

"There are others, but it seems to depend on the potential of the quest targets," Void Beast Atticus explained. "If the quest target’s potential is high, more races will come out to interact with them because there are benefits to be gained. If their potential is low, fewer races will appear. They don’t want to waste their time."

Listening to this Introduction, Rowan Rhodes’s heart couldn’t help but skip a beat. Did this mean that the races of the Deep Sea Region were actually paying attention to them, the players from Azure? If those races in the Deep Sea Region deemed their potential high, perhaps they would randomly land on certain islands to interact with them as so-called NPCs? And if their potential was low, then just like in her past life, they would rarely encounter NPCs on the islands, essentially leaving them to just scavenge for resources in the ocean and on the land?

This was truly a crucial piece of information!

Rowan Rhodes felt that if they could establish trade with the races in the Deep Sea Region early on, it would be highly beneficial to the overall development of the Azure players. The Shallow Sea Region and the Coastal Waters Region were meant to be a period of low-profile growth for the Azure players. The longer they stayed, the more they could accumulate sufficient Strength. It would also draw in the players from the Deep Sea Region.

It seemed she needed to continue publishing strategy guides. She needed to write guides that would steer players into fully exploring all the islands within a single sea region, urging the entire player base not to enter the Coastal Waters Region too early. There would inevitably still be players rushing for progress, but as long as the majority took their time to explore, they could control the overall pacing.

As for the information she had obtained today, she needed to share it, but she couldn’t reveal everything all at once. She could only guide them step by step, then disclose the full truth when the time was right.

Having made up her mind, Rowan Rhodes said to Void Beast Atticus, "I hope we can encounter more of the races from your Deep Sea Region in the future."

"Rowan Rhodes, I think you will," Void Beast Atticus said earnestly. "You are truly amazing."

After all, none of its other clan members had found even a trace of their quest targets yet! Everyone in its clan had told it to get along well with her! What they had their eyes on was Rowan Rhodes’s ability to mobilize such a vast amount of resources so early on. The elders who had been through it all knew best what conditions were like in the Shallow Sea Region.

"I’ll take your word for it," Rowan Rhodes replied.

Receiving a series of major revelations today had already been an immense and pleasant surprise. Now, hearing Void Beast Atticus express its trust in her with such a soft, sweet voice, she felt genuinely delighted.

"Hehe," Void Beast Atticus laughed happily.

"Master, Master, come quick!" Right at that moment, Seabird One’s call rang out from midair. "Big Turtle found something good!"

As it spoke, Seabird One landed squarely on Rowan Rhodes’s shoulder, its tone brimming with excitement.

Rowan Rhodes raised an eyebrow. She wondered if this "something good" was simply a plant that had caught Big Turtle’s interest. Still, there was a chance it could be a species she didn’t yet possess.

"Let’s go! Take me to see it," Rowan Rhodes said.

The next moment, Seabird One fluttered its wings and happily led the way. It knew very well that whatever Big Turtle found interesting was highly likely to be something Rowan Rhodes needed. And as long as it was something she needed, they were just as happy about it!

Meanwhile, Void Beast Atticus remained nestled in Rowan Rhodes’s arms, intensely curious about this kind of exploratory adventure.

It thought to itself that following Rowan Rhodes truly wasn’t a bad choice at all!
