Chapter Eighty-Six: Torture
In the damp labyrinth, Charles, with a gloomy face, led the crew to run wildly.
"Mr. Charles, my friend can't keep up!" cried Lily, who was standing on Charles's shoulder, anxiously.
"Tell them to climb on top of James!
The rats quickly climbed onto the back of the growing giant, and James wore a black cape.
"Ahhh
"Ahhh
"Ahhh
The miserable shouts in front of him became louder and louder, but these could no longer stop Charles's pace.
If, according to the bandage, the island outside has sunk below the water level, then everyone will not be able to get out in a short time, and they will follow the island into the deep sea.
Whatever lies beneath the depths of the ocean, it is not an area where humans can tread.
The humid air was filled with depression, and everyone's face was solemn, but seeing the backbone-like Charles running at the front, everyone did not panic.
The crew scurried around the maze with bandages, and the screams got closer and closer, when suddenly Charles made a quick turn, and suddenly there was a clear vision in front of him.
There is a rare light in the area in front of you, but when the light happens, it is really creepy.
I saw that the space the size of a football field in front of me was full of naked human beings, men, women and children.
They grabbed their necks with their hands and screamed and writhed, writhing in the muddy water, just like the graffiti they had seen on the wall.
And around them, they were densely packed with black strange insects the size of a palm, looking like centipedes with spider legs.
They stood on the surface of the water like water spiders, surrounding the screaming humans, trembling in rhythm with the sound of their voices, as if they were enjoying the pain of humans.
Seeing this scene, Charles immediately understood that these were tortures, and what the scar man said before was right, this is the lair of torture.
When Charles saw them, so did the torture.
In addition to the torture on the water, some torture crawled out of the mouths of the screaming guys. The torturers began to move, and they began to move towards Charles in an attempt to merge Charles into one of the screams.
They flock in groups, and as far as the eye can see, they look like a black carpet.
Faced with this scene, a trace of fear appeared on everyone's face, and Charles quickly carved it on the wall with a knife. "Bandage, torture is over! Where the hell are you talking about the exit??"
But at this time, the bandage again disappeared from the wall.
"Damn!" Charles exhaled, taking out the Thunder Staff from his bosom, this is the only relic that can deal with a large number of enemies.
"Sting!" Bright arcs of lightning shot into the torture group, jumping between them.
But then there was a scene of despair for everyone, and in the face of enough thunder to kill 1002 Thunder, these tortures were unresponsive, as if they were insulated.
"Da Da Da Da~" The torturers poured up, crawled down the clothes to Charles's mouth, and in an instant, the sharp pain that penetrated deep into the bone marrow spread all over the body, and the sharp pain made Charles almost faint, and his throat involuntarily let out a scream.
The rest of the crew were also hit, and they screamed with convulsions.
It was at this time that Charles immediately saw the bandages on the wall reappear, and he drew a box and made an opening motion.
"Box, mirror box!!"
Charles trembled and took the backpack on his back, but the intense pain made it difficult for him to even think, and his hands instinctively held his neck, as if it would be a little better.
"Mr. Charles, I'll help you!" Lily's rats quickly jumped onto James's back and pulled out a mirror case from inside.
The torture only seems to attack humans, and the group of small rodents next to it doesn't even bother to look.
Seeing this, the vampire who was also screaming next to him instantly overcame the severe pain from his fear of sunlight and desperately buried his body in the muddy water.
The "pop" mirror box was opened by the mice, and the dazzling light filled the entire space in an instant.
Under the sunlight, all the torture around me quickly melted like a snowman without leaving a trace, and the sharp pain on my body quickly disappeared.
Collapsed, Charles gasped for breath as he looked at the bandages on the wall. A thought came to his mind, how did this guy know that sunlight was useful for torture?
But at this time, the bandage graffiti disappeared again, and his real figure emerged in a muddy water in the distance. "Captain...... Here!"
There was a wriggling hazy white light in the muddy water next to the bandage, it was the narwhal's searchlight!
When Charles got out of the hole in the muddy water, the icy sea water enveloped his body, and the mud washed away from his body in an instant.
Charles looked around and saw that the previous mesa island was under the water, seven or eight meters away from the sea above his head.
He didn't float up immediately, he stopped directly at the exit point, and quickly counted the crew members who came out inside.
One by one, Lily, Knona, Deep, and the crew emerged from the hole and floated toward the water.
Charles soon discovered that there was one person missing, and his chief engineer, James, had not yet come out.
When Charles got in again, he found James standing there with a very ugly face.
"What's going on?
"Captain, I'm too big...... I can't get in. James had despair on his face.
Charles was shocked, he realized that James's body had not completely shrunk, and he couldn't get out at all with his current height of three meters.
James trembled and handed the amethyst to Charles, and said with difficulty: "Captain, please tell my wife, I ...... I love him forever. ”
Seeing James' last words, Charles was irritated and hit the amethyst in front of him directly back. "Tell me, tell yourself, how long will it be before you retract back to the original?"
"I ...... I estimate that there are still five minutes left, and the boat is not long enough. James said bitterly.
"Then wait five minutes. Don't worry, I'm with you. Charles took his pocket watch from his bosom and waited.
As time passed, more and more seawater poured in from the hole. Looking at the muddy water floating on the ground, Charles finally knew how the swamp came to be.
Just when James shrank to two and a half meters, Charles found that the edge of the strange exit began to squirm unsteadily, and the exit was about to close.
"Can't wait so much, let's go!!" Charles pushed the big man straight to the exit.
Not surprisingly, James froze, and the edge of the exit slowly shrank, sinking into his skin.
