In the original game world, there is a group of "documentary parties" who take reading the copywriting materials in the game world and deeply exploring the settings behind the world view as their hobby. They are also active regulars on major forums and video websites.
Among them, regarding the "never-ending storm" in the depths of the Atlantic Ocean, some literature parties have cited various classics and speculated that it came from the interface between the main plane and the "deep sea plane".
In the mystical sense, the universe we exist in is the main plane, also called the "material plane".
In addition to the material plane, there are many secondary planes that interact with the main plane to exchange matter or energy.
For example, the shadow world that Mia's "Shadow" sequence ability teleports her into is actually the so-called "shadow plane." The light from the main plane is constantly absorbed by the shadow world (the specific mechanism is unknown), so when everyone looks at the night sky, it is pitch black.
Otherwise, with the almost infinite number of star systems in the universe, even if each star can only bring a small bright spot, it is enough to make our night sky extremely bright.
The deep sea plane is a similar existence. It absorbs the energy of the background radiation wave from the main plane, and then outputs a large amount of matter - the interface deep in the Atlantic Ocean on the Helel planet mainly outputs a large amount of water.
Even in the super ancient times, the Atlantis Ocean was not originally an ocean, but a super empire built on land called "Atlantis". According to the textual research of the Document Party, due to a major accident that has been erased from history at the time in the Mage Association, the area near the imperial capital suddenly connected to the deep sea plane, creating an interface that continuously sprayed water outward, so that the prosperous western continent was quickly completely submerged by the ocean within a few years.
The remaining Ancestral Mage Association tried their best to open an interface to another dimension on the coast of the eastern continent (now located on the coast of the ancient city of Argos on the Sirius Peninsula), and only then could the large amount of water that continuously entered this world be continuously discharged, avoiding the risk of the planet Helel becoming a liquid ocean planet.
The name of this Ancestral Mage Association was "Zondrilic". After the fall of the Atlantis Empire, it fled westwards from the continent to monitor the displacement of the western deep-sea plane interface.
When this post with various historical evidence was released in the forum, it attracted countless players to sail to Atlantis and die in various ways in the storm in the depths, trying to find the lost treasure of Atlantis... Of course, the main purpose was to find the so-called Zondrilic group to see if they could take on some missions or something.
As a large number of players' adventurous behaviors came to nothing, this matter was considered to be a satellite released by the game planners and a big pit dug. This plot has not been arranged in the current version.
However, when Ask heard the name "Zondririk" in the tavern in Hero Port, he quickly remembered the archaeological post that had caused a sensation on the forum at that time.
Therefore, in the mutual probing with the priest just now, he deliberately bluffed and used a lot of key words to intimidate the other party - sure enough, the other party immediately changed his attitude and planned to lead them into the inner room for detailed discussion.
