I'm a Stingray?

Chapter 341: Fish and architecture, how much are they related?

"There you are!" A familiar tone echoed from a distance.

It took the couple of stingrays, just a moment to realise that this man who shouted, was none other than Snoopy.

He approached these friends with quite a bit of a strut, and his exaggerated behaviours gestured strong signs of relief.

So of course Timothy had to ask, "The hell are you rushing for? We haven't died or anything."

"I was almost convinced that you two actually died," The other expressed.

And then specified, "I've been looking for you, for over three days now!"

"What do you mean?" The hero questioned, as he tried to figure out if this was some joke.

"I was going to ask you the same thing," Snoopy followed along.

And then weighed in, "Where have you two been for the past three damn days?"

These couple of stingrays grew increasingly confused, and of course the most talkative one was the least shy to express against this blurt.

"We've only been gone for like half an hour at most, did those crystal fish make you eat some type of weird gem?" The sea-disk joked around.

With a firm look on his face, Snoopy once more insisted. "I am extremely sure that you've been gone for a long time."

"Well damn. We actually fucked for that long?" Timothy asked.

For once he did not try to joke, but was tremendously curious instead.

Dana strictly avoided eye contact after such a topic had been opened up, and she barely spoke. This was certainly a topic that she was not ready to talk about.

But regardless of that fact, her much beloved friend was much more talkative.

He explained to Snoopy what had been going on ever since they separated, and it was fair to say that the other was simply amazed.

The context of intimacy through souls, was tremendously interesting and hilarious at the same time.

It was mostly funny because Timothy felt like the one who got drilled in that three-day sprint, and eventually the lady got a laugh out of that as well.

But jokes aside, they have truly made tremendous progress already.

They knew exactly where to go in order to find the so-called source, and that fact simply gave them hope.

The reef above them was dead, so of course they wanted to figure out how exactly such a disaster unravelled.

And although it seemed like an unrealistic wish, they hoped that the reef and its animals could be restored.

Neither of those wishes could be confirmed at the moment, but this was the same reason why they aimed to find the source.

And they began following that plan along after catching up with all details, their fins simply worked the waters to progress towards this destination.

The memories of which had been imprinted in their minds, advised that to find their target they had to swim about two-hundred more meters deeper.

Thankfully the sea-pressure was not getting to any of them, but that itself might not be something to worry about at all right now.

Because after they sunk a couple hundred meters deeper, they had to make a sharp turn in order to follow the memorized route.

This sharp turn featured a small tunnel, which led them to one of the oddest structures they have seen yet.

These friends were used to seeing gems and tar in this whole underground community, but now their surroundings had drastically changed!

Their eyes captured quite a bit of stones, but there was something immensely unique about them.

These stones were extensively carved, they simply gave hints that a lot of work had been put within them.

The cavern they had swam in wasn't exactly massive, it stretched just about forty meters wide.

But it was still large enough to pull attention away from these carved stones, so the team almost missed them.

However they eventually figured out that they were entirely surrounded by carved stone!

This structure was even complex enough to have decorative values.

As in, there were about three bridges that the eye could capture, which ran across the cavern from one end to the other.

Apart from that they could see a few columns, which had their remains scattered across the flooring, and were simply coated with moss.

There were a couple of other columns that seemed intact, and their size was astonishing!

They stretched for over fifty meters tall, in order to keep the ceiling above their heads steady.

And the girth of each column was over five meters wide, such a size was most definitely interesting.

As for the overall texture across this carved cavern, the colour grey covered more than half of the vicinity.

Apart from that shade, moss itself coated the other half of this whole cavern.

Since it was spread randomly in a patch-by-patch pattern, the scene itself was quite memorable due to this extended beauty.

"I've never seen anything like this before," Snoopy was the first to speak out.

And then continued, "I didn't know that old fish could do this to stones."

"A fish literally ripped our souls out of our bodies for three days, so this place isn't a big surprise." Timothy followed along.

"Yes but still, this place is impressive." His sibling insisted.

And so the team of three stingrays dwelled deeper towards this odd cavern, and tried to make a bit of sense out of this entire structure.

This place carried a bunch of tunnels, but they did not seem so stable since they weren't coated with gems whatsoever.

In fact it was still difficult to understand how they could see around here, since there weren't any sources of illumination.

But overall this entire place seemed unstable, so the team didn't feel the need to explore every corner.

They just followed the route that had been implanted in their mind.

Although the cavern was about forty meters wide, its length was far bigger in comparison.

So the team swam for a hundred meters, before they noticed that this ruined cavern started leading downwards.

This detail made these friends peek towards the structure's flooring a bit more.

And that was when their eyes captured quite an odd statue!

It seemed abnormal at first, but then they noticed that this same statue looked a lot like a stingray!
