"Is that it? Are we safe to dive into the lake now?" Zowen asked, eager to explore the lake. There must be something Lesser Kraken protected inside. Anything else, she wanted to collect the cloud barrier if it was collectible.

"You can jump if you want to get swarmed by those slimy Krakens. I saw at least dozens of them from the hole I created, not sure how many of those things were at the center of the deeper part of the lake." Tang Shaoyang shrugged, gesturing to the Magus to jump in.

The lake was big, the quadruple of the soccer stadium. It was unknown how deep the lake was because of the cloud barrier.

"I can try electrocuting them," Lightning sparking in Zowen's right hand, ready to send them into the lake.

The monster was weak when they had their ground and easy to kill. However, it would be different if they entered the lake. Water was the Lesser Kraken's home turf, and they might pose a threat to Zowen and Rosalie inside the water. Even Tang Shaoyang's movement would be limited inside the water, and the water would reduce the strength of his swing for sure. More importantly, none of them had the experience of fighting under the water.

The three argued about how they should take care of this lake, and they did not reach a conclusion. They were arguing, and some of the arguments sounded ridiculous, such as drying up the lake. Lulu could not take it anymore and decided to speak.

"I think this place is Kraken's breeding ground,"

The three looked toward the voice at the same time. For some reason, Lulu felt pressure from the three. She gulped and explained, "It's the work of the God Rank from the high-rank faction. As its name implies, they breed the monster they want in the tower, and they will let their lower rank member harvest it, whatever the purpose is. Some factions can tame the monster, some factions use that to help their people to level, and the peculiar faction breeds the monster for delicacy."

The three confused, exchanging glances. Making sense in some parts, but it did not really make sense because the tower chose the participants, not the otherwise. God Rank might have their way of creating these things, but their factions are not necessarily chosen for the dimensional tower.

"It still does not make sense for them to make this. While those God Ranks can get into the tower, how do they let the system choose their faction into the Dimensional Tower." Rosalie narrowed her eyes, thinking Lulu lied to them, "Unless those God Ranks know how to get into the right tower? Again, even if they know, why did they put the breeding ground in the tower? Don't they have their own territory?"

The Empress realized that Lulu's explanation was questionable to the point that it made the girl suspicious. It did not make sense to do all of this when the other factions could take this breeding ground from them. Why risk it if they could put the breeding ground in their own territory? The risk of being stolen or taken over by another faction was big.

"Or this horde of Krakens is the result of their experiment. They leave it here to test out how good these monsters are against newbies like us." Zowen said, explaining a different guess as to the reason behind the breeding ground. The explanation about the breeding made sense, but the purpose Lulu mentioned did not make sense. However, it made sense if these monsters were the product of an experiment. Since the God Rank could enter the tower, they might have the method to see what happened inside the tower as well. Whoever set up this breeding ground might be watching them right now.

Rosalie and Tang Shaoyang turned toward her. Their faces were totally clear when they looked over her, asking for a more detailed explanation as to how she could come to such a conclusion.

"Lesser Kraken instead of Kraken. That means this monster is the weaker version of the real Kraken. I don't know if you have seen the real Kraken, but the real size of the Kraken is much bigger than the one we killed." Zowen explained patiently. She had seen the real, the corpse and the living thing. "Back in my world, Kraken is the King of the Sea. So yeah, I have seen the real one, and this one is not the real Kraken. The real one is much bigger than this one. I would say ten times bigger, and it could drown our ship with just its size."

"Also, remember the rank! I am weaker back in my world, and yet we managed to kill the real Kraken. If we have to talk about rank, the real Kraken in my world should be at Epic Rank or Ancient Rank at most. But this one, despite being smaller, it's already an Epic Rank. It means this one is not an infant Kraken. Its name also implies it is the lesser version of the real Kraken. So, whoever created the breeding ground, wants to create the real Kraken through the experiment. Or maybe there are more secrets to this breeding ground. We don't know, but we know what this place is now." Zowen shrugged.

Tang Shaoyang and Rosalie accepted Zowen's explanation more than Lulu. It made sense if it was an experiment, meaning whoever created this breeding ground wanted to see their experiment.

Rosalie and Zowen now looked at Tang Shaoyang, waiting for his decision on their next move.

"So you say this is a breeding ground, but it's actually a farm for us," Tang Shaoyang's eyes gleamed, looking down to the lake once more. He tore apart the barrier, big enough so it would take time for the cloud barrier to regenerate. With Spirit Eyes, he saw through the deeper part of the lake and found the bigger Kraken in the deeper part.

"There are a few Ancient Rank Kraken, and I see one Myth Rank." He turned toward Rosalie and Zowen, "This is a farm, a place to farm levels. We can fork them out of the water and kill them on the land. Those monsters would be much weaker on the land." A massive grin formed on his face as he mentioned slaughtering the Kraken.
