Chapter 272: Memory Fragments
The half-human, half-fish frog monsters are scary enough, but compared to the other two monsters carved on the wall, they are probably as cute as the cartoon Mickey Mouse in Disneyland who is responsible for taking pictures with visitors.
Especially before, just looking at the wall carvings may not have been so intuitive, but now seeing those two thrones, Nelly has a further understanding of the size of the thing sitting on it.
Even in the vast expanse of the sea, they can definitely be called behemoths.
Nelly felt like a rat breaking into the cattery, but luckily the owner of the cattery was not at home today, and Nelly only hoped that they would never come back, and she even began to worry about Yonaguni Island, where she lived, considering that there were such evil neighbors on the side, it had to be said that it was a miracle that Yonaguni Island had not gone wrong for so many years.
But seeing these two thrones is not without good news.
Nelly had been worried about whether there would be an exit at the other end of the tunnel, but now she could breathe a sigh of relief, because no matter how wide the crack that would allow her to enter, it was clear that it would not be able to accommodate anything on the throne.
So there must have been some other exit, and Nelly swept around with her flashlight and quickly found it.
It was located on the right-hand side of the throne and happened to be blocked by two stone pillars, but it was large enough to be spotted with a little attention.
It was a large, swarthy hole, large enough for an adult sperm whale to enter and exit, and to get close to it, you could feel the impact of the currents, which meant that it was necessarily connected to the outside world. Nelly's eyes lit up at this point, and there wasn't much compressed air left in her tank, less than 30 bar.
If she can't find an exit, she'll never see the sun tomorrow.
However, Neli still looked behind her before entering the hole, and after confirming that there was no one in the hall, Zhang Heng had already swam out of the hiding place.
But he didn't feel good in his heart.
Looking at the grandeur of this underwater palace and his previous understanding of those things, Zhang Heng didn't think that there was only one guard here, but they did not encounter a second monster along the way.
Either they were lucky enough to catch the guys out hunting, or they were sneaking in the last place, waiting to give a big gift to the two of them.
Of course, Zhang Heng hoped that it was the former situation, but he also had to prepare for the latter situation, he had already taken out the [Betty's Shell] from his pocket, which was another prop he was carrying in addition to the [Filter Lens], unlike the [Filter Lens], [Betty's Shell] was a real prop suitable for the marine environment.
This item is derived from one of the Celtic gods in the Black Sails dungeon. The effect is to consume one's anger to summon a storm at sea for fifteen minutes, and the storm level is related to the level of anger
To be honest, this prop is becoming more and more embarrassing for Zhang Heng now, mainly because his feelings are disappearing more and more, whether it is anger or happiness, there is not much left, even the empathy methods used before are gradually becoming ineffective.
In the subsequent copy Zhang Heng didn't even carry it anymore, just because this represented another life of his life after all, and it was more than ten years of life, Zhang Heng didn't want to sell it for money, Zhang Heng just hoped that this time it could still play a little residual heat.
In addition, Zhang Heng also noticed the two thrones.
And when he saw them, the feeling of déjà vu also befell him again, and this time Zhang Heng even got some fragments of memory.
It doesn't seem like the first time he's been here, standing in this palace.
And that time the king and queen were not sitting on the throne, they were prostrate at his feet, as if they were the most devout believers.
As for the other half-human, half-fish and frog monsters, they couldn't even get close to the hall, just looking up at the great figure in the center would plunge them into eternal madness and madness.
This is a very strange feeling, especially when Zhang Heng finds that his perspective is still looking down, in order not to destroy this palace, he even has to shrink his neck and bend his back, the king and queen are like two little ghosts who have just started to toddle in his eyes.
Zhang Heng deliberately glanced at the queen a few more times, because the latter gave him a stronger sense of familiarity, as if he had met it there, it should not have been known for a while, and this familiarity did not come from these memory fragments, but Zhang Heng himself, but he hadn't had time to Xixiang yet,
Nelly's gesture pulled him back into reality.
Zhang Heng nodded, there was not much gas left in his and Neli's gas cylinders, no matter what was in front of them, they had to give it a go.
So the next one was still Nelly in front and Zhang Heng behind, and they got into the big hole in the wall that symbolized the last hope in turn.
Unlike the previous cramped and oppressive corridor, the undersea tunnel behind the cave is spacious enough.
The number representing the depth on the dive computer is also steadily rising, and after the previous frightening moments, the luck of the two seems to be starting to improve, and the hope of getting out of the predicament is just around the corner.
Nelly couldn't help but speed up, and the blurred light above the two of them became clearer and clearer.
After swimming some distance, the numbers on the dive computer showed that they were only about twelve meters away from the surface, and Nelly went around a huge coral reef and found the missing Han Lu behind it.
Han Lu's condition didn't look very good, she seemed to be entangled in an abandoned fishing net, and she couldn't break free from it on her own, but fortunately, her breathing equipment was still intact, and like the two of them, she was still alive.
Seeing this, Nelly hurriedly swam to Han Lu's side, first glanced at Han Lu's residual pressure value, and found that there was less than 5 bar left, in other words, if they came a few minutes later, Han Lu might have suffocated to death.
So Neli gestured to comfort Han Lu and began to help the latter untie the fishing nets on her body.
However, what she didn't expect was that it was okay that she didn't show up, and when she swam to Han Lu's side, the latter actually panicked even more and began to struggle desperately, while constantly patting Neli's shoulder, as if trying to make her turn around.
Nelly turned her head a little puzzled, although the oval tunnel mouth looked like a beehive, but now everything was as usual, extremely quiet, and at the same time within reach, Nelly knew that as long as they swam through the last twelve meters, they would be able to bathe in the sun again and get out of the trap completely.
But the next moment, the cruel reality shattered all her beautiful fantasies.
I saw that in the mouth of those beehive-like tunnels, black shadows suddenly burst out one after another, just like the worker bees leaving the hive, because they were so many that they even blocked the sunlight overhead, plunging the world into darkness again.
