Chapter 192: Undetermined Anomaly
The formation was the same as before, with me continuing to lead the way, with the others following closely behind.
On the way, I kept thinking that there was a problem that had been overlooked. Before I came, I should have checked to see if anything had happened in the deep sea around me. For example, submarine volcanic eruptions, or changes in the earth's crust. Otherwise, how could such an island emerge from the bottom of the sea out of thin air?
But it was useless to think about it now, so I simply put aside my distractions and hurried with the others. No one spoke halfway, and the atmosphere was depressing for a while. Except for the "human stones" I had seen before, there were no other victims on the road, which should be barely good news.
We walked for more than three hours until we reached the center of the island, which is also the highest point on the island.
There are still strange rocks standing around, and there are many underground caves filled with rainwater. I asked everyone to rest in place, called An Beimo, and asked her and me to find a high point to see if we could inspect the entire island.
We found a relatively large rock and climbed it with our bare hands. There wasn't much to stand on the rocks, so there was basically no room for the two of us to stand up. I used a telescope and An Beimo used the scope of a sniper rifle to carefully search around the entire island.
The whole island is the same as we saw along the way, there is nothing but strange rocks. Even so, I looked very closely. It's just that it's the same everywhere, and after watching it for a long time, it's a bit of visual repetitive fatigue.
An Beimo looked more carefully than I did, and when I turned around twice, she didn't even finish a lap.
Visually, I couldn't find anything special, I was a little disappointed, and I was about to beckon An Beimo to go down and discuss the next step with everyone, but An Beimo stopped me.
She held up her sniper rifle, her eyes did not take her eyes off the sight, and said to me: "To the southwest, about a kilometer away, do you see if there is something wrong?" ”
I raised my binoculars to look at the location pointed out by An Beimo, and after a few minutes, I put it down and said to her, "I didn't see anything abnormal, did you find anything?" ”
An Beimo replied: "I can't say it well, but it just doesn't feel right, as if something is moving there." ”
Secretly startled, I immediately raised my binoculars to look at it again, and this time I looked at it almost inch by inch. After watching it for a long time, my eyes are a little glazed, but as An Beimo said, I found that something was not right. But neither of us can say what it is.
Seeing that we had been on the rocks for a long time, Qixing shouted below with some concern, "How are you there?" Is there something going on? ”
Shen Hao also shouted: "I said that you two won't take the opportunity to find a place where no one is and whisper, right?" ...... Oops! Before he finished speaking, there was a cry of pain, and it was Qixing who stepped on him.
I shouted to the Seven Stars, "I'm not sure yet, you guys wait a little longer!" ”
At this time, An Beimo suddenly said to me urgently: "Hey! I seem to have seen something move again. ”
I hurriedly looked through the binoculars and asked, "Where?" What is it? ”
After a while, An Beimo replied: "I don't know, it seems to be just a flash, too fast, not even half a second." ”
"Is it human?" I asked. When An Beimo said that he saw something that could move, my first reaction was the four survivors.
An Beimo thought for a while before answering me, "I'm not sure!" ”
This is the first time I've heard An Beimo say that she found something uncertain, and what she was not sure about in the past, An Beimo wouldn't say it at all.
I felt that things were not simple, so I said to An Beimo: "You continue to patrol here, and I'll go down and take Shen Hao over to check it out." ”
An Beimo said: "Okay, I'll cover here, let's keep a short frequency call, and I'll notify you in time if we find out." ”
I said yes and slipped off the rock. When I came to the place where everyone was resting, I whispered to Shen Hao: "Put down the extra things, bring only weapons, and follow me!" Then he said to the Seven Stars, "Keep your watch, the goddess seems to have discovered something, let us go and see." ”
Qixing said, "Why don't I go with you?" ”
I said, "No, the situation is uncertain yet." You leave ......" glanced at Kobayashi Lan and Haruko Sakai, and continued: "Take care of them!" ”
"That's good!" Seven Stars replied, "Be careful. ”
Shen Hao and I left all the weight of our backpacks and checked the weapons again. After getting ready, Shen Hao followed behind me and moved towards the southwest together.
Walking out of two or three hundred meters, "Black Hawk!" An Beimo's voice came from the headset: "Adjust ten degrees to your left front, and you check this route first." ”
I agreed, and immediately took Shen Hao to adjust the direction of travel.
It was past noon, and the sun was shining on me, and the air around me was damp and stuffy, making me feel uncomfortable. In particular, the warm wetsuit worn at the bottom is wrapped around the body, which is as breathless as if it is covered with plastic wrap.
It makes me a little irritable, and I always feel the urge to lash out or fight someone.
The more this happened, the more I told myself to calm down, but I was already bored with this broken island.
When we walked out of nearly a kilometer, An Beimo's voice sounded again: "Attention! You have to be careful here, there is an anomaly just now, it seems to be around here. ”
I slowed down, made a quiet gesture to Shen Hao, and then vigilantly searched step by step.
Maybe the danger was nearby, and Shen Hao and I were nervous. We are not afraid of the visible danger, but for this invisible one, we can't help but start to get nervous.
After walking forward for a few dozen meters, I suddenly smelled a peculiar smell, I stopped to sniff a few times, and found that it was a strong fishy smell.
"Goddess!" I whispered, "It smells very fishy, a bit like rotten stinky fish." It seems that there are a large number of fish carcasses nearby. ”
An Beimo said: "I haven't found any more information here for the time being, but I'm sure you must have something there." ”
A "bang" sound came from behind me, and I hurriedly turned around, it was Shen Hao who pulled the bolt just now. He heard An Beimo say that the danger was around, and subconsciously loaded the bullet.
The surroundings were too quiet, and the sound of Shen Hao pulling the bolt was particularly loud. I glared at him and made a silent gesture at him.
At this time, An Beimo's voice hurriedly said in the headset: "Stop! Something moved just now, less than a hundred meters in front of you. I'm sure there's something, but I can't see what it is. ”
Shen Hao and I glanced at each other, raised the gun and aimed it at the front. I told Shen Hao in sign language that I would shoot when I saw it, and if it was a survivor, don't be injured by mistake.
"Where did the other side move?" I asked An Beimo softly: "Let's chase!" ”
"Don't go!" An Beimo said: "You just stay there and don't move, I'm still searching." ”
Shen Hao couldn't help but say to An Beimo: "Goddess, where is there anything here?" We're standing here and there, and we don't find anything. Are you mistaken? ”
"Don't talk nonsense!" An Beimo replied to Shen Hao coldly: "Listen to my instructions and don't move." ”
After waiting for a few minutes, I said to An Beimo: "Let's go ahead a little further and take a look, you show the way." ”
"Good!" An Beimo said: "But be slow, and keep absolutely quiet." ”
Shen Hao and I nodded, and moved forward again together.
There was no wind on the sea today, I couldn't even hear the sound of the waves, and the surroundings were so quiet that I could hear my own heartbeat accelerating.
It's just too strange, An Beimo can find that something is here, and it is still moving. But Shen Hao and I were so close but I didn't find anything. I was also a little skeptical for a while, if An Beimo was really wrong.
"Black Hawk, Beast!" An Beimo suddenly said urgently: "Fifty meters in front of you on the right, something is approaching you. ”
Shen Hao and I turned our guns to the right at the same time, listening to An Beimo's tone in such a hurry, it seemed that the other party had discovered us.
After more than ten seconds, nothing happened. We didn't see anything out of the ordinary, other than the strange rocks in our eyes.
"What is it?" I asked, "There's nothing here!" ”
"I don't know!" An Beimo still replied, "They all disappeared in a flash, but every time there is an abnormality, they will get closer to you." ”
My palms were covered with sweat, An Beimo said that something was coming towards us, but I couldn't even see a shadow until now, could it be that I was alive?
"It's too dangerous, come back first!" An Beimo suggested that I say.
I hesitated for two seconds and said, "No!" I've finally found my target, and I'm going to have to see what kind of thing is playing tricks here. ”
As soon as I finished speaking, Shen Hao beside me let out an exclamation: "Damn! What is this? ”
I hurriedly looked in the direction he was pointing, and I saw a long shadow not far in front of us.
For a moment I thought I was mistaken, a shadow moving crookedly on the ground, but not seeing the body, which was simply beyond my comprehension.
At the same time, the voice of the earhead Lian Beimo urged us: "Get out of there, that thing is coming from your front!" ”
The shadow wasn't moving very fast, but it was faster than ours. I couldn't figure out what was happening in front of me, so I beckoned Shen Hao to immediately step back together.
The two of us ran backwards, and the shadow followed, shuttling back and forth through the cracks in the rocks, moving quickly and freely.
"It's a snake, isn't it? No, maybe it's a python! Shen Hao looked back as he ran.
I ignored him because I didn't know what was behind it. At this time, I saw a stone crack on the right side, which was very narrow, but it was enough for Shen Hao and me to pass through. So my heart moved, and as soon as I pulled Shen Hao's clothes, the two of them suddenly turned around and drilled sideways through the stone crack.
The shadow didn't follow, and I was glad to be glad when I was suddenly stunned by a strange sight outside the crack in the stone.
A huge eye hung in the air, looking through the crack in the stone.
That's definitely not human eyes! The shape is round, there are no eyelids, and there is a sea-blue eye that is dripping and rolling, and it makes me creepy to see.
A dangling eye stares at you, and anyone else will be frightened. I was frightened, but Shen Hao also saw it next to me, and he asked me in a trembling voice: "Dude! Is this a big-eyed goblin that can fly? ”
I ignored him and said to An Beimo in Maili: "Goddess! Can you see that? It's incredible! ”
An Beimo was extremely surprised and asked me: "What did you see?" I didn't find anything! ”
