The first time you hear about the Sea People from Dr. Bacon in Dave the Diver, it really does sound like a myth. Not to mention, it makes Dr. Bacon sound like a conspiracy nut. As it turns out, the Sea People are real, and once youโve gained their trust, theyโll ask for your help (as if Dave didnโt already have enough on his plate). One of the quests youโll come across is Kazhinโs Reading Time, wherein Kazhin needs a very specific book and tasks you with finding it in Dave the Diver.
Dave the Diver: Kazhinโs Reading Time Quest Guide
[Updated May 27, 2024 โ Rewrote, reformatted, and clarified information]
Itโs not enough to reach the Sea People Village to unlock the Kazhinโs Reading Time side quest in Dave the Diver. There are a series of side quests youโll have to complete before eventually fighting the Truck Hermit Crab boss. Only then will you get the chain of quests that leads to Kazhinโs Reading Time.
So, what you want to do first is:
- Defeat Truck Hermit Crab boss
- Complete โSea Person at the Workshopโ
- Complete โFind the Childrenโs Bellโ
- Complete โPet Squid Selgioโ
- Complete โWedding Song Recordโ
- Complete โRepair Kinglonโs Statueโ
After all that nonsense, youโll unlock Kazhinโs Reading Time. Youโll find Kazhin in the Seed Shop. Heโll send you over to the Temple to retrieve a book called, and this isnโt a joke: There are Mutant Sea People in the Basement, and as King I Canโt Just Stand By, I Must Do Something. Oh, and thatโs the second volume; I can only imagine what the first volumeโs called.
To reach the Temple, use the portal in the village, then talk to Niamo inside, and sheโll try to help. Did you forget the title of the book? Dave sure did, and now he doesnโt know what to tell Niamo.
Apparently, itโs very common for Kazhin to ask for books with ridiculous titles. The good news is she presents you with the cover of three books, and you just have to choose the right one.
To complete Kazhinโs Reading Time in Dave the Diver, choose the book with a merman on the cover. If you highlight the book, itโs described as having โzombie-like sea people,โ which matches the title Kazhin gave you earlier. Take it back to Kazhin, and heโll give you 20 Bei, 15 Credits, and Seaweed Seeds.
