I'm a Stingray?

Chapter 344: A virtually impossible dilemma

We kinda have all of that figured out already, Timothy was the first to break the news.

How? Haze questioned as she shook her head. She was quite in a bit of shock.

After that point the hero briefly followed along, We talked to a lot of fish around here, and they told us about a bunch of stuff.

You talked to them ha? I didnt think of that. His sibling admitted.

It was almost hilarious to hear such a statement, from the same lady whose IQ was perhaps the largest in the world. But even super geniuses make mistakes.

She even went far enough to describe, Ive been analysing a bunch of particles, before that dumb mud-fish attacked me. I didnt think that talking to these odd civilisations would do the trick.

Such a sentence came out as a bit strong, but the other stingrays could mostly understand what she meant to say.

And Timothy broke tension down as he advised, Talking is good sometimes. The fish around here arent geniuses, so you can figure a lot of stuff out.

Haze pondered over those few words for a moment, and then nodded in agreement. She had been a bit clumsy but nothing about her conscience was unreasonable.

After that point the whole team had spent a bit of time catching up with the odds and ends, regarding what happened ever since they were separated.

Although a few sentences had been awkward, mostly from the ladys side, these stingrays were truly happy to see each other again.

At the end they all carried a peachy smile, and felt a bit relaxed.

This overall dilemma had racked their nerves up so far, so it was nice to experience something that gave them legitimate joy.

Timothy has built up half of a bond with his siblings already. Sure he had difficulty connecting with them, since he used to be a human with an entirely different life

But these stingrays showed genuine care for him, and they tended to express it in many indirect or awkwardly direct ways.

So it was difficult to avoid such a grand aura, and at this point he didnt want to prove difficult against it either.

Regardless if he liked it or not, his soul had been bashed in a stingrays body.

So these few stingrays, apart from Dana, were his siblings by blood. That fact was difficult to avoid, so the hero adapted towards this reality bit by bit.

However, after they caught up with every odd and end, the team figured that it was the best time to continue the initial task.

Their arsenal of powers has buffed up now, since Haze rejoined their team. So the journey through this wretched underworld should be a lot easier.

They followed this ruined cavern, and continued to dwell in amazement, the more details they picked up.

This place truly had a lot of architectural work, and the team was still clueless regarding who made it.

But according to what Haze pointed out, these carved bits of stone that coated most of the cavern, were perhaps the oldest construction around here!

According to some particles that she had ripped out of these walls, and thoroughly analysed afterwards; this cavern was at least over two-hundred-thousand years old!

Such a detail pointed out that this place was the oldest structure so far. But another theory grew as that concept was analyzed further.

As a start, Haze could easily figure out just how old any fish civilization was around here.

All she had to do was break a few of their particles, and analyse what little DNA circled on each species.

This helped figure out that most civilizations theyve seen around here, were tens of thousands years younger than what age this finely carved cavern had.

So this raised the conclusion, that most of these odd fish that lived throughout the massive tunnel, had arrived in this place thousands of years after this stone-work had been carved.

Such a gap truly baffled the team. But this theory itself was wobbly as neither of these odd fish, had enough DNA for Haze to analyse.

Nonetheless, the team still unravelled a bit of their geeky side, and gazed in amazement at this well preserved, ancient structure.

Typically their senses to figure things out were large, specifically since the problems they tried to fix were often large as well.

But in this case, they observed their surroundings even more, due to scientific curiosity.

Yet such urge was soon put to a halt, as they met with what seemed like the end of the cavern.

The only problem was that everything about this halt, proved that the team had met with a strong dead end.

A stone door was in front of them. Its features were quite radiant, with many curves and such.

But in this case, this door halted their progress completely, as a simple push wouldnt do the trick either.

Specifically because this door was huge! It stood seven feet tall, certainly befitting in this sizable cavern.

Okay this looks bad, Dana was the first to point out.

Necessarily she broke the silence, so the rest of the team uttered a few words in agreement.

After a moment, Timothy pitched. What if we try to blow it up or something?

We dont know how to, and we dont need to do that either. Snoopy intervened.

Afterwards his metal-coated skin, shape-shifted until his entire body turned into a two-foot long cone.

Within a blink of an eye he charged towards the stone door. A strong thud reverberated right after, upon contact.

Quite a bit of dust blew up in the process, so the team felt sure that this massive door had been blown open.

Which was why they rushed backwards for a few feet, as they didn't want to get crushed by some heavy chunk of stone.

But as the scene cleared up, they could see that the stone door was mostly unscathed.

There was a pearl-sized hole in the middle of it, but there wasnt any other portion of damage to be spoken of.

I was afraid that this would happen, Haze spoke out afterwards.

But her brother was quite insistent, which was why he stated. Maybe I should try again.

No no, that wont work. The highly intelligent stingray lady stated.

After that point she described, The door is four feet thick. It has an incredibly strong and advanced density. Its virtually impossible to break it down.
