Chapter 37: The Real Ruthless
The lights in the house can't be turned on due to a power outage, and the conversation between Zhu Jue and Jeffrey takes place in front of a clock that automatically emits light.
The bowl-sized aperture lit up only half of their respective bodies.
"Drinking?"
Jeffrey held a bottle of high-end liquor that he had "borrowed" from the mall like Zhu Jue and put it on the table.
Sitting, half of his face hidden in the darkness, the other half still terrifying in the light.
"I always prepare drinks for myself when I travel. ”
Taking out the energy drink, Zhu Jue thought in his heart that he would have to ask the sponsor to add money after he went back.
"You're not afraid of me?"
Since the other party didn't drink, he simply lifted the cap of the bottle and blew on the bottle, his eyes still casually glanced at the person next to him, and the flesh pits on his face and the tentacles that kept writhing became more and more weird under his movements.
Jeffrey couldn't understand why this reporter didn't have the slightest fear on his face from the moment he saw him, it wasn't pretending, he could feel it.
"I've seen too many monsters, and you're the most handsome of those guys. ”
Picked up the functional drink and touched the wine bottle, and took a sip of each, Zhu Jue raised his eyebrows and said.
This is the truth, if you call all the guys you met before to form a team, Jeffrey will definitely be able to make his debut in the C position.
"Handsome?"
Olivia couldn't take it for the two of them to sit down and talk about their looks.
"Believe me, what Zhu Jue said is true, although this Mr. Jeffrey also looks very unusual, but compared to what he has seen before...... It's really much more pleasing to the eye. ”
As a veteran employee, Li Qinglian confirmed Zhu Jue's statement, but Jeffrey still looks like a person, isn't he?
"Really?"
Probably because he felt that he had become like this and could easily chat with people, Jeffrey's expression was very embarrassed, and he paused for a while before finding a topic and continued,
"You've dealt with a lot of monsters?"
"Of course, in my line of work, if you want to make a big news, it doesn't get any easier than this, for example, I have recorded our current conversation..... You don't mind, do you?"
Zhu Jue was also surprised by Jeffrey's calmness at this time, he thought that the other party would fall into a madness of self-denial like the person he had seen before who was troubled by the bloodline of the Deep Diver, but now it seems that this is not the case at all.
"If I mind, won't you shoot it?"
With some sarcasm, he casually prepared to light a cigarette for himself, and the moment the flame was raised, the tentacles on Jeffrey's face extinguished it, and the cigarette was also shattered.
They don't like fire.
scolded in a deep voice, took out a pair of scissors from his side, and cut off the tentacles that "caused trouble" to him in front of Zhu Jue, and forcibly lit a cigarette.
Zhu Jue watched and smacked his lips from the side, this is also a ruthless person.
The cigarette butt sparkled and went out, the smoke came out of his mouth, hovered in front of him under the lamp, and then threw the cigarette and lighter aside, and then turned his head and said, "I don't mind if you shoot a video, and I know what you want to ask from me, I have a few requests, can you agree?"
"You say. ”
Zhu Jue was not in a hurry at this time, on the one hand, he was sure of this by facing the conversation of the terrifying monster, which would become a very brilliant part of the video, and on the other hand, he actually admired Jeffrey, after all, his situation was very similar to him to some extent, but he might be luckier.
"You have to give my daughter a sum of money, I'm sorry for her during this time, I can't continue to protect her, and I don't want to stay by her side and hurt her, so I came here to die. ”
"No problem, you can rest assured of the consultation fee, if you don't believe it, you can tell me the account number now and transfer money online." ”
"No need, you just go back to Anna, I don't know why, I believe you, and don't look at me as I'm normal, in fact, my brain is very messy, I can't even remember my last name, how can I remember the account, it's just that a sailor on an ocean fishing boat like me, this state, it should be seasickness after sleeping at sea for a few days, it's completely problematic. ”
Jeffrey's words were a little confused, and he shook his palms, and the light in his pupils began to fade, all to be refreshed by the cigarette and the spirits.
Even so, it still made Zhu Jue feel his tenacity.
As a sailor on an ocean-going fishing vessel, it is needless to say that the physical fitness is not much to say, but what is even stronger is the tenacity that has been tempered by staying in the vast sea for a long time.
If you are someone else, let alone calmly cutting off the tentacles on your face and smoking a cigarette, you can still say such a thing, I'm afraid that the moment you see the tentacles on your face, you will collapse!
"Any other requirements?"
"Hmm...... Do you say you've dealt with monsters a lot and killed them?"
Staring at Zhu Jue, there was a look of anticipation in Jeffrey's eyes.
"I've had that a few times. ”
"Hahaha~ It's a little interesting, then it's no problem. ”
took a puff of cigarette, raised his hand to wipe the blood from the wound on his face, and continued,
"Do you want to know why I'm like this, and what the hell those guys out of town are coming from?"
A few months ago, Jeffrey Talos was involved in the last distant-water fishing before winter, as is customary, because the captain said that the place where they had been fishing had an undersea volcanic eruption and could not go, so they had to change the fishing ground, and as long as they could get the money, he naturally did not care where to go.
However, this time the course change proved to be fatal!
"I see it...... It was a huge stone pillar built in the middle of the sea, and I was sure it wasn't a natural product, but then I soon realized that it wasn't a human creation either, because there were no human ...... Yes, no one is going to build something that disgusting, when the captain told me to dive down and take a look, I did, I saw it...... Huge rocks covered in moss and kelp, stacked on top of each other, seem to have become some kind of architectural structure, but I don't see any design related to the staircase, the stones...... Those stones ......"
When a person wants to describe something, he can't help but think about the situation, and Jeffrey's mind is doing it now, and this way of remembering it quickly causes his mind to fluctuate violently.
"Hey, let's stop talking about it, let's talk about something else. ”
Zhu Jue tried to stop him, not because he was worried about Jeffrey's mental state, but because he found that he was just following the other party's description and imagining that his own spirit had also been affected.
"The moss on the rocks had stained the whole sea a pale green, and I thought it was convex, but when I got closer, I realized that they were sunken inward, and the sun was shining through the water, and they were green...... Nausea, I felt extremely nauseous!"
"Wake up !!"
Noticing that Jeffrey seemed to be a little difficult to control himself, Zhu Jue hurriedly reminded him.
"Ahem~Vomit~"
The continuous retching sound, perhaps due to Zhu Jue's voice, calmed Jeffrey's mood slightly, and he poured a small half bottle of liquor into his throat before he could barely stabilize his mood again.
"I passed out at that time, and when I woke up, I realized that I had been rescued from the ship, and the captain said that something was wrong with the sea...... I don't know what the problem is, we didn't dare stay there for too long...... There were 10 people on that boat, and when I came back, I had mental problems, and the others who didn't go to the sea were fine, and I just dreamed about that place at first, and then my body gradually changed, and I didn't dare to mention it to anyone, because even if it was just a memory, it would make me uncomfortable...... Not to mention this, about a month ago, someone suddenly approached the captain and said that he wanted to know more about our ocean fishing, they claimed to be archaeologists, but from the first time I met them, I knew that they were not, those guys who are in town now, they are definitely not ordinary people!"
As he spoke, the growth rate of the tentacles on Jeffrey's face was constantly accelerating, and he seemed to feel something, and then began to speed up his speech.
"The captain died, the other sailors died, and they tricked them into coming to the island to negotiate for payment, but none of them came back, and there were no strange fish with human hands, it was just a rumor they made up, and they must have done something else around the town, but no one believed me...... I returned to the island to find out what was going on, but it was too late...... Aren't you a journalist, you go expose them, they should be near the sea cliff near the shipyard, I have seen them there before, and our ship is parked there for the time being!"
Pouring all the rest of the wine into his mouth, Jeffrey got up from his position and stood in front of Zhu Jue.
"It's kind of funny to say, I find it a little difficult to do it, just when you came, it would be much easier, didn't you fight monsters, you should have a weapon with you, now, kill me!"
At this time, Geoffrey's whole body began to swell, and the only remaining light representing reason in his eyes was close to collapsing.
"I ...... All right. ”
It was the first time Zhu Jue had encountered a monster who wanted to commit suicide, and he pursed his lips a little helplessly, he also knew that the only thing he could do in this situation now was to give the other party a relief, otherwise it would be Jeffrey who would suffer at that time.
Carrying the weapon box to his side, taking out the Qingyi pistol, Zhu Jue was still ready to be happy.
"I have to say that I admire you, you are countless times stronger than the guy I met before who was about to become a deep diver. ”
Aim the muzzle of the gun at the center of the eyebrows and pull the trigger without hesitation.
......
The moment he waited for death to come, his chaotic thoughts diverged without limit, and Jeffrey saw again the scene he had seen in the sea a few months ago.
In the midst of cities that transcend cognition built by unprecedented spatial dimensions and structures.
He saw the sleeping giant......
At this moment, the rainstorm outside the house was inexplicably violent and a little violent!
