BXBX NOVEL Chapter 111 [Bonus ] The Door
The huge body of the Kraken exploded into countless tiny particles and disappeared with the water current.
On the spot where the Kraken died, three shiny objects appeared.
At this time, a notification also appeared in front of Alex, confirming the death of the Kraken.

Alex just glanced at the notification before turning his eyes to Kris.
Opening the chat interface, Alex sent a message to Kris.
[Zero: Kris, come here, let's get that thing that you need immediately.]
[Kris: Okay, wait for me!]
Alex closed the chat and turned his eyes to the place where the Kraken died.
There, 3 items that were dropped by the Kraken are floating.
Alex swam towards it and picked it all up.
Just as he got it, Kris appeared beside him.
[Kris: What are those, Alex?]

…
After seeing the information of the drops of the Kraken, Alex's eyes got attracted to the pendant.
'Mermaid's Language?'
Alex became interested in the skill attached to the pendant.
When he read the details of the pendant, it immediately sparked his interest.
Noticing the way Alex's eyes look at the pendant, Kris tilted her head and said,
[Kris: Is that something good?]
Seeing that Kris also got curious, Alex handed the pendant to her to take a look.
Without hesitation, Kris used her [Appraisal] skill on the pendant and her eyes widened.
[Kris: Mermaid's Language?! This is perfect!]
Kris' reaction surprised Alex.
[Zero: Hmm? From your looks, it seems like it's something that you want, huh.]
[Zero: Tell me why are you so excited about that.]
Kris shifted her eyes to Alex and excitedly said,
[Kris: How can I not be excited? This is a very important item for us right now!]
Tightly holding the pendant, Kris continued,
[Kris: You probably don't know, but the place where the Heart of Nature can be found is in the city of mermaids, Atlantis!]
[Zero: Atlantis?]
Alex has heard of the name Atlantis in the past from stories that he read and watched.
In those stories, Atlantis was a legendary city with advanced civilization.
However, because of an unknown phenomenon, it disappeared.
Anyway, hearing about it here now immediately piqued Alex's curiosity.
So he said,
[Zero: Then let's go and take that Moonlight Sand that you need and head towards Atlantis immediately.]
Kris nodded and the two of them proceeded to move towards the Kraken's cave that got destroyed in the fight before.
Before they left, Alex's poisoned status had also disappeared.
…
Inside the cave, the two proceeds to move deeper while remaining alert at their surroundings.
According to Kris, at the deepest part of this cave, there is a different space where they can find the item they are looking for.
After swimming for half an hour, Alex and Kris finally arrived in a room inside the cave.
The room was made using bricks made out of unknown black materials.
On the walls, moss that glows and countless bioluminescent creatures are swimming around.
Beside that, there's a wooden door that looks ancient but still emanates with the mysteriousness of the unknown.
Kris pointed at the door and said,
[Kris: It's that door. Behind that, there's a different space where we can get the Moonlight Sand.]
Alex nodded in understanding.
Then, he thought of something and asked,
[Zero: Why do you know about this, Kris? Have you been here before?]
Kris hastily shook her head.
[Kris: No no no no, the only reason why I know about this place is because the elves told me about it.]
Kris hurriedly said, afraid that Alex would misunderstand.
[Zero: Oh, so that's the case. Anyway, let's proceed and get that stuff you need.]
After saying that, Alex already moved a stepped ahead, grabbed the doorknob and opened the door.
When he opened the door and saw the scene on the other side, Alex suddenly paused.
A dark sky filled with countless stars, the calm waves of the sea, the glistening white sand on the shore, and lastly, the moon above that is shining down with its gentle white light.
From being under the water, Alex was transported into the beach side the moment he opened the door.
A fascinating white sand beach!
"Wow… this is… beautiful."
Alex crossed over the door and stood on the sandy beach.
The water on the secret realm where Alex came from didn't flow towards the beach.
It's like there's a barrier that stops it from happening.
While Alex is still mesmerized by the scene in front of him, Kris also arrived and crossed over the door.
Just like Alex, when she saw the scene on the other side of the door, Kris was also fascinated by it.
"What a beautiful place this is!"
