The Tsunami Apocalypse, But I’m the Lord of the Ocean

“The oceans will swallow the land. Humanity is doomed. Head to Northern Tibet immediately.” On the fourteenth day of the dark clouds that blanketed the world, Wendy received a text message signed only with the letter “S.” At the same time, her roommate, Pei Xiao, mysteriously disappeared, leaving behind nothing but a note containing nearly the same warning. April 7, 2085—the final sunny day of humanity came to an end. Towering storm clouds engulfed the globe. Temperatures soared at an alarming rate. Food prices skyrocketed. Emergency apocalypse alerts blared from the phones of her friend’s parents… Everything was racing toward an inevitable catastrophe. The oceans swallowed the continents, and long-extinct species emerged once more from the deepest parts of the sea. As humanity stood on the brink of extinction, Wendy discovered blue-green fish scales growing across her body. [You have awakened the Sea Kingdom Capital—Apali, the City of Rebirth.

Ocean Authority +1%] [Please awaken all Sea Clan cities as soon as possible, illuminate the Ocean Veins, and reclaim the seas that belong to you.] Unable to board an escape vessel, Wendy was swallowed by a monstrous tidal wave. When she opened her eyes again, she found herself ten thousand meters beneath the sea. There, the royal capital left behind by a prehistoric civilization stood in equal parts magnificent and ruined. Seated upon the throne of the deep sea, Wendy was surrounded by a crowd of newly awakened merfolk who worshipped her with fanatical devotion, proclaiming her the long-awaited Princess of the Sea Clan. Meanwhile, inside her mind, a miniature Earth slowly took shape. Like a primitive world-building simulation, it eagerly awaited her to shape and develop it. From the moment the planet was born, its civilizations had followed an unchanging cycle. The destruction of one civilization always marked the birth of the next. A mysterious prehistoric civilization lay dormant beneath the endless darkness of the ocean floor, waiting for the prophesied princess to cross billions of years of history and awaken the seas that were rightfully hers. Meanwhile, the colossal vessel known as Noah’s Ark departed from Northern Tibet, carrying humanity’s final hope across the endless ocean. Its mission was to locate the 366 escape boats scattered around the world and rebuild human civilization in the suddenly transformed new world. Yet in the abyss, where no human eye could see… Countless grotesque aberrations slowly opened their eyes in the darkness. — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: The Tsunami Apocalypse, But I’m the Lord of the Ocean — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
