The underwater world of the Light Land Monster.

The rays from the sun are fading and fading.

Blocked by the fog of the lost and the sea, the light could not reach such depths.

The deeper you dive, the more pressure you put on the surface of your body.

Stress doesn't just come from deep waters.

The thick seawater sticks to the surface of Aono's skin, making each sinking harder than the last.

This is both the force of nature and the effect of the Lost Mist.

You know, the water pressure in the sea is extremely terrifying.

For the average person, it is normal to dive 10 meters without equipment, and those who have mastered the skills can dive to about 15 to 17 meters.

And further up, every meter of deepening increases the danger to the diver's life several times!

But the current Qingye has dived to a depth of more than 40 meters.

Don't forget, the sea water mixed with the Lost Mist will be denser, and you can imagine how strong the pressure that falls on Aono's body.

The erosion of the Lost Fog has not stopped.

They seemed to want to penetrate Aono's skin through the icy waters, disintegrating his flesh and will from within.

However, compared to the heavy water pressure, the erosion of the Lost Fog is more like a good helper of Aono.

The black mist that invaded his body was digested and absorbed by him without exception.

Nothing is wasted, not a drop is left.

In short, instead of becoming a resistance to Aono, they have also become a source of motivation and energy for Aono to continue sinking.

'What a teammate......

Aono sighed a little in his heart.

I just wish the Lost Mist would be a little more efficient, just because

He's a little underfed.

Aono continued to dive.

After another 5 meters, I finally got a glimpse of the bottom thing.

It was something that didn't look like a reef or a beach.

Lying under the deep sea, quietly waiting for outsiders to discover.

'There. ’

Aono's gaze quickly searched the bottom of the sea, and with his intuitive perception of the most dangerous areas, he easily found the location that was most likely the source of the Lost Mist.

Between the gray and white things, there is a deep crack.

It's like a ravine at the bottom of the sea.

Because of the water and distance, it was impossible to see what was in the crack or where it would lead.

But now, at least, the goal is clear!

Aono waved his arms, like a sturdy mermaid, and dived down again.

But this time he dived, but Qingye felt it in an instant, and the water pressure suddenly increased by a level!

"Boom!"

The heart beat heavily, and the blood flow in Aono's body unconsciously accelerated—this was a natural response from his body to resist the sudden increase in water pressure.

Aono frowned, a dull pain coming from all over his body.

It's just that he frowned, not for this, but because

Under this water pressure, the consumption of oxygen in the lungs increases rapidly.

By this time, Aono had been holding his breath under the sea for at least ten minutes.

And the current world record holder is just over 20 minutes.

There is also an essential difference between the two.

In the process of diving, Qingye always maintains high-intensity exercise, and the consumption of oxygen can be compared to a person who simply dives into the water to hold his breath?

Oxygen means time and life.

Even Aono still retains the physiology of human beings, and cannot survive in a space without oxygen for long.

The reason why he was able to last so long was that in addition to his own special physique, his lungs contained far more air than ordinary people.

In addition, he uses a special breathing method to maximize every trace of oxygen in the air in the lungs - in general, the efficiency of human breathing is actually extremely low, and the air after breathing is slightly less oxygen and carbon dioxide is slightly reduced.

'You have to speed up. ’

Aono moved quickly, resisting enough pressure to crush people to the deepest part of the sea.

I was able to see the gray and white things clearly.

"This is"

Squinting his eyes, Aono touched them lightly behind him.

The feel of the hand and their shape prove their identity at the same time - skeletons!

Bones, bones, corpses with eroded flesh are similar adjectives.

Ordinary people may have only seen the fine bones of animals eaten and wiped clean, but now

Bony and bony!

Corpses everywhere!

From here, you can see an endless stream of skeletons.

They come from a variety of creatures, from huge fish, to creatures that look like four-leggeds, to those whose bones are distorted and who can't see what they looked like before birth, and more

Belonging to humanity.

Heads of all shapes and sizes, large and small, are scattered all around.

Their hollow eyes seemed to be silently staring at the outsiders who had arrived here.

Maybe I'm expecting him to be one of them.

Here, there is a cemetery of bones.

Instead of thinking about why they had gathered here or why they had died here, Aono waved his arms and swam towards the crack.

The crack was as wide as a man's outstretched arms, and more than thirty meters long.

Accommodating Aono to go deep in, is not a problem.

Time is running out.

A strong sense of danger came from the ravines in the sea.

On the surface, the graveyard of bones was peaceful, so calm that it seemed as if there would be no danger.

Apart from the strong water pressure, there seems to be no other obstruction and monsters.

But Aono clearly understands that the calmer the status quo, the more it means that after the danger is really triggered, it will only be unimaginable stormy waves!

With unprecedented vigilance, Aono carried the unknown skeleton and drilled down the crack.

Now he has no way out.

Only by completely eliminating the root of the black fog.

Or he and Kanda Yukie and others, all drowned in the sea.

Aono's small back disappeared into the deep cracks.

Soon.

"Click-click!"

A series of loud noises began to sound at the bottom of the sea.

With the shaking of the seabed, many of the white bones that had been eroded for a long time collapsed in the shock, turning into oblivion, revealing a huge scale-like existence beneath them.

The water, mixed with black mist, was also trembling.

Subsequently, the white bones are lifted upward.

To be precise, the entire ocean floor is rising!

An incomparably large eyeball opened in the distance of the crack.

The core of the eyeball is blue-black with bloodshot spreading.

Far deeper than the waters.

The crack that Aono entered continued to expand, and the water began to surge inward, more like a huge mouth that was constantly opening than a crack.

Originally.

This bone graveyard is not some seabed, but a part of the back of a monster!
