Not A God

Chapter 83

Vol Civilisation

This is a planet that is constantly shrouded in grey dust, the fog is so thick that you cannot see the colour of the surface, only the dull grey that fills the picture. Countless star trails and spaceship lines hover around the planet, concealing everything in a dense network that is overcrowded and dirty, even in the depths of the infinite universe. Countless tourist ships come and go, passing over the Grey Star, leaving a trail of clouds in the air.

The Vol civilisation is a famous tourist destination in the universe, known for its grey hazy skies and magical, exotic landscapes. As money-loving Vols, they have never missed an opportunity to make money, and after discovering the curiosity of other civilisations about magic, they have developed tourist industry and invented many beautiful old legends to raise their prices.

The number of tourists who ate this up was quite large, and the tourism industry on the Grey Star grew more and more prosperous, with new visitors arriving almost every hour of the day and night, welcoming civilizations from all corners of the universe all year round.

"...... There is a legend of a horrible sea serpent in these waters!"

The captain of the rustic sailing ship, built to attract tourists, smiled kindly as he told the tourists visiting the nearby seascape the old legend of the Grey Star every year, each year with a different protagonist. Today, in particular, several fishing boats in these waters are said to have sighted a giant sea serpent, and it made the Grey Star news, making the legend all the more real. The odd-looking tourists at the bottom were enthralled, admiring the shimmering sea nearby and sighing with pleasure that the trip had not been a bad one.

"You really don't think it's all a scam? The prices are ridiculously high! You can't even sell the legendary snake slices for that much!" A disgruntled tourist A complained to his friend that he had spent enough money on the trip to buy a house on the Grey Planet.

He had never seen a tourist planet that is so desperate to make money as the Vol Civilization.

The captain listened to the tourists, still smiling as if he hadn't heard them, and continued to talk about exaggerated old legends. Seeing this, the friend stopped A and said, "You can't say such disrespectful things in these waters! It will attract sea snakes!"

The friend was a superstitious fellow, and after listening to the captain's flap, every tentacle in his body trembled. A said contemptuously, "If there really is a monstrous snake, why hasn't it finished off the Vols who are almost gutting the planet?"

The Vols were on the verge of hollowing out the planet in order to develop their commercial and magical civilisation, basically destroying the ecosystem of the Grey Planet. Moreover, there are no gods or demons in this world, and the creatures that can destroy the world must be intelligent races, not giant, cold-blooded sea serpents. Myths are just myths, they can't be real, and the so-called news should be a tool for tourism. As soon as the words left his mouth, A suddenly heard his friend scream, so loudly that it nearly pierced the outer tympanic membrane of his fragile attached skull.

"Ahhhhh! There's a snake! It's a giant sea snake!"

At these words, the eyes of all the tourists were drawn towards the direction of the friend's scream and saw that there was indeed a thin, dark shadow on the bottom of the sea. The captain also looked over and instantly smiled more kindly and said in a subtle tone, "It's okay, it's just a small sea snake."

He had not really thought that anyone would be so stupid as to be frightened by a made-up legend. There were still people in this world who were so stupid that there seemed to be room for a scam, and it decided that it would find an excuse to take another charge later. The many nervous tourists felt that they had been cheated out of their feelings, but when they looked at their friend's frightened face, they had to stop laughing and crying.
