Chapter 43: The Shadow of the Primeval
Many things that looked like jellyfish floated up from the sea, and like hot air balloons, waving countless tentacles, they slowly flew into the air
The jellyfish were all very large, and the smallest was the size of two basketball courts together.
Unlike traditional jellyfish, these jellyfish are not transparent, but dark gray, and even when I don't touch them, I can feel the indescribable flexibility.
They must have a layer of mucus attached to their bodies, and the slimy feeling can be seen from a distance.
In addition, in the sea in front of me on the right, a stone monument or a cuboid stone pillar gradually floated.
The size of the pillar is even more terrifying than that of the giant jellyfish, and the plane at the top alone is the size of two-thirds of a football field, and its height is hundreds of meters.
At the top of the pillar, there is something resembling a throne.
It's just that it's empty, and there aren't any monsters sitting on it, just a thin layer of green mist hovering over it.
With the wind blowing, the green mist also burned inexplicably, quickly turning red until it turned into a flood of flames
The flames were in a clump with two large white bright spots, and really, it looked a bit like a pair of eyes.
And on the distant land, countless monsters have also emerged.
Or rather, they came out of the ground.
There are monsters that resemble sarcomas, covered with tentacles, and a few living human eyeballs that seem to be magnified ten million times, floating out of the cracked caverns on the land and soaring into the sky
"What the hell is this place, I'm probably dreaming, I can't be in this place in an instant," I muttered to myself.
No matter how real my feelings are, reason is still alerting me that none of this is true.
What is seen does not necessarily exist.
It was the brain monster that saved me when the corpse qi caused my body to collapse, and if I felt right, it should have pulled me into my own body, I have this impression.
That is to say, everything I see is what it makes me see.
Maybe it was my own hallucination, or maybe I was experiencing an unrealistic dream, but my intuition told me that none of this was real, but it must have existed.
The scenes I saw may have been witnessed and experienced by the Brain Monster.
Maybe this is the world it lives in, or rather, the era in which it lives!
If this is the case, then it is possible that what is written on earth is true.
This era is far beyond the ancient times we know, and even beyond the era of the Nine Emperors of antiquity, and even the chaotic period when Pangu opened the world was left far behind
I am a college student who has experienced modern education, so I must know all the basic scientific knowledge.
The earth should have been born 4.6 billion years ago, and during the period of the Nine Emperors in ancient times, it was only 10,000 years before their civilization, and there may have been other creatures.
No, it should be inevitable, just like those dinosaurs, even if they are just beasts, but that is enough to prove that the earth can give birth to creatures outside of human civilization.
What I saw was probably the same as it was before the Nine Emperors, and in a way, it could be another civilization.
A civilization that I can't understand, I can't describe.
I didn't know that the form of life could reach such a high level, that a giant jellyfish could soar into the sky, like a monster with a living eyeball, and could fly straight into the sky
Is the Nine Emperors connected to them?
According to the handwriting in the cave, these monsters should be the ancestors of the Nine Emperors, of course, I don't think that eyeball monsters and jellyfish monsters can have anything to do with "people".
But it is undeniable that in this world that I can't understand, there are also some humanoid monsters.
Like the fog man I saw first, and the humanoid monster that had just emerged from the yellow sand, like a shadow, with a pure black color.
This humanoid monster was much larger than the fog man, except that it was very thin, with a long waist and disproportionately slender limbs.
The sound it makes is not the same as the usual roar, but it is like someone playing a howl, and the whining sound is straight to the heart.
Just as my attention was focused on the huge figure, countless green balls of flesh suddenly poured out of the sea, and due to the distance between them, and their small size, I couldn't see more details at a glance.
The strange thing is that when I saw those meat balls, I inexplicably felt a little familiar but also familiar, as if I had seen them somewhere!
At the same time, the slightly soft, plant-like smell of the air suddenly flooded my nose.
If someone else smells it, they might think that the smell is coming from some monster or a plant.
But as soon as I smelled it, I knew that this smell was very similar to the Gu qi of my flesh body.
It's not just Gu Qi, it's very natural, with the taste of the breath of life.
Compared to this aura, the yin and yang qi that I can perceive are much weaker, which I can't figure out no matter how I think about it.
Yin and yang, which are the root of all things, but in this world, the concept of yin and yang does not seem to apply.
"Goo."
A strange and familiar sound suddenly came into my mind.
Really, it's not heard, it's ringing directly in the head.
"Brain Monster??" I was stunned for a moment, glancing left and right, but still didn't see the shadow of the brain monster.
"Where are you??"
"Goo." It screamed again.
At this moment, my head seemed to be slashed by someone, starting from the back of my head and ending at the Tianling Gai, this piece was all painful.
It was a tearing pain, and my whole brain seemed to be completely smashed, and the pain made me squat down uncontrollably, covering my head tightly with my hands, trying to close my eyes for a while, but I found that my eyelids couldn't close at all, but my eyes were wide to the limit, as if someone had opened them alive
It seems that they have discovered me, and more and more monsters are beginning to set their eyes on me.
That's when I discovered something by accident.
As soon as I looked up at the monsters, especially when I looked into their eyes, the pain in my head intensified.
On the other hand, when I look away from them, the pain in my head decreases a lot.
"Goo-goo-goo"
The voice of the brain monster kept ringing in my head, it seemed to be communicating with me, at least I thought so, even if I couldn't understand its language, it couldn't stop it from telling me.
Right!! It's telling!!
It was cooing all the time, but to me, these strange sounds seemed to be connected into a string of Chinese characters one after another, and then I gradually understood them
The Brain Monster told me a lot of things, and I have the impression that I am absolutely right.
Unfortunately, at that time, my consciousness had begun to blur, and the pain was getting stronger and stronger, and it was already tormenting me frantically.
Consciousness, sight, perception.
All of this was leaving me, and after two or three minutes, I was back to my original state, where I couldn't feel anything, I couldn't see anything, I couldn't hear anything
I don't know how long this process has been, because in that state, my concept of time has completely collapsed, and this process seems to have only gone through a second, and it seems like it has gone through thousands of years, and I can't say it at all.
When I woke up again, my consciousness gradually regained and I opened my eyes
The flashlight was still at my feet, and I sat on the ground, this should not be a dream, my position was in the underground cave in Longshan, Xiangxi!
"Those aren't hallucinations," I muttered, rubbing my temples with my hand, and looking up at the brain monster, "You just took me there"
I didn't say the rest of the words, but just blocked them in my throat.
The brain monster in front of me has changed, and of course, it can be regarded as a complete change.
The original brain shape and the dense eyes had disappeared without a trace before I knew it, and in its place, a dark green ball of flesh, about half a meter above the ground, floating there in the air.
