Chapter Twenty-Nine: An Unsettling Shadow
More than 100 meters underwater, the human eyes can hardly see anything here, the whole body feels countless fluids that are not there, but the eyes are plunged into darkness, as if the whole world is the only one, and the body has to bear the weight of water pressure.
Because of this, deep diving requires two people to work together, because with a companion, one can overcome the terrible psychological stress of the environment and avoid all kinds of unexpected situations.
In the dimly lit world, with only a little light that illuminates a range of three or four meters, there is only one signal line connecting each other.
Through the Spirit of Words and Snakes, forcibly recording the model of the entire Bronze City and the constantly changing logical structure, Ye Sheng couldn't care about the pain that almost burst his head in his mind, and with Jiude Aki, he frantically swam all the way to the nearest exit, dodging the gate passage that made the Bronze City constantly change by the rotation of the gears.
The water rushed from all sides, flowing differently with the transformation of the Bronze City, hindering Ye Sheng and Jiu De Aki's escape path, and every minute and every second, the little oxygen that was already being consumed was rapidly consumed.
On the Moniach, the "key" opened his pale golden eyes, held a pacifier, and his fingers moved on the map on the screen, he just looked like a baby, because of the high purity of dragon blood and special reasons, he didn't grow up, but in terms of wisdom and strength, "Key" surpassed nine out of nine humans.
With a flick of his chubby little finger, the "key" relied on his powerful computing power to find an exit on the ever-changing three-dimensional map.
Directly below.
"Ye Sheng, just below is the exit!" Mance excitedly passed the message through the "snake" while happily walking around, "Great, calculate their speed and oxygen, three minutes is enough time for them to escape from the Bronze City!" We did it! β
"Great, Captain!" Thelma said equally happily.
However, the "key" suddenly burst into tears, as if he had encountered something extremely sad, and as if he had felt some terrible danger!
Mance was stunned for a moment, his heart was groaning, his body was weak, he held on to the wall of the cabin, and looked in a hurry: "Oops...... Oops! We only counted the oxygen and time they swam out of the Bronze City, and when they swam out of the Bronze City, the oxygen would run out, but they were more than 120 meters underwater! β
At this distance, without oxygen, the obstruction of water pressure and the consumption of breath in the body, it is impossible for a person to swim up, even if his students are half-blood.
"Now, I can only hope that guy can be trusted...... "Mance still has the last hope left in his heart, and that is the sudden half-blood.
Underwater, in the Bronze City, Ye Sheng and Jiu De Aki finally came to the exit, and below was a whirlpool, and the water was constantly surging.
"Ye Sheng, it's all my fault for ...... before" Jiu De Aki's heart was full of guilt, if she hadn't been affected by the spiritual vision formed by Long Wen, she would not have turned on the switch of Bronze City in confusion.
Ye Sheng looked at Jiu De Aki and didn't speak, he did something that the executive department would never allow, pulled off Jiu De Aki's mask, and kissed the other party on the lips hard: "I will definitely take you out!" β
Jiu De Aki was stunned, and couldn't help but recall that in the past, when they first met, Ye Sheng, a teenager from China, was a strong swimmer, but when he easily completed a thousand meters and bought a drink, she was still struggling awkwardly in the pool, at that time, Ye Sheng slapped his back to her while drinking a drink and laughed: "Are Japanese women short legs?" I hope you're not my partner, or I'll be killed by you. β
However, in the past few years, they have become a tacit couple.
The members of the executive department are not allowed to have feelings for each other, because at such a deep depth, this relationship can easily lead to more serious consequences, and that is because of the bitter lesson of a mission at the Kassel Academy ten years ago, so this provision was introduced.
Holding Jiu De Aki's slender body, Ye Sheng rushed into the whirlpool below.
"Legs aren't that short." He thought so.
After a whirlwind and dizzy feeling, the two finally rushed out of the vortex, at this time the oxygen had begun to run out, both of them felt that breathing was getting harder, they tried to control the consumption of oxygen, but the body instinctively dizzy for a while.
However, there is an exit ahead, just open the door......
"Damn!!"
Ye Sheng scolded angrily and desperately in his heart.
Bronze city walls, with locks on the doorsβa living spirit.
There is no "key" here, and the living spirit must have a sufficient concentration of dragon blood to open it, otherwise the greedy living spirit will lock the door and will never let anyone with low blood pass through, unless there is the power to destroy the door.
The pedigree of the "key" is very high, at least A-level, and among so many students in the Kassel Academy, there are only 12 A-level and only one S-level, and the pedigree of some professors is not high, and there are not many A-level.
And he and Aki Aki are not enough in blood.
At the same time, Ye Sheng felt that the "snakes" in his mind were agitated, they were roaring, they were crazy, they were warning, Ye Sheng's hairs stood on end, he felt that a terrible crisis was approaching quickly!
Glancing at Jiu De Yaji, who was groggy due to lack of oxygen, Ye Sheng laughed, he suddenly reached out and stuffed it all into the mouth of the living spirit, the living spirit bit down, the teeth made by alchemy pierced his wrist, and frantically extracted the blood containing dragon blood, so fast that his head was dizzy for a while.
If the dragon's blood is not pure, it must feed the greedy living spirits with a large amount of blood, which is an absolutely taboo practice in the Academy, and a long time ago it was called a dark sorcery act - exchanging a large amount of blood for a high concentration of blood.
Directly put his own oxygen on the mouth of Jiu De Aki, and at the same time stuffed a brass-colored bottle in Jiu De Aki's arms, and got the supply of oxygen, and the groggy Jiu De Aki suddenly woke up.
What caught her eyes was Ye Sheng, who had lost a lot of blood and turned pale and lost oxygen, and at this moment, Ye Sheng was smiling at her.
Tears burst out of her eyes in an instant, but before she could react, the living spirit that kept absorbing Ye Sheng's life was finally satisfied, and the door of this position opened, and the water rushed out, driving Jiu De Yaji to rush her out.
Jiu De Aki subconsciously grabbed Ye Sheng's hand, but Ye Sheng's other hand was still bitten by the living spirit - this is why this method is listed as taboo, the dragon attaches great importance to blood, because bloodline represents power and power.
Ye Sheng fed the living spirit with a large amount of his own blood, and the living spirit unlocked the lock because of this, but the living spirit also activated the punishment mechanism, the punishment for the disrespectful.
This city was forged by the existence that stood at the top level of the dragon race, it was a pure-blooded dragon, a noble dragon king named the first generation, he allowed the bloodline impure to open the living spirit, but for this, that person or dragon, will pay the price of his life!
Bloodline represents power and power, power and power are the core of dragon society, so the technology of exchanging a high concentration of bloodlines at the cost of a large amount of blood is a taboo in taboos, especially for hybrids with dragon blood and human hearts, some technologies will make hybrids become Deadpools, and some technologies will make hybrids dig up the ruins of dragon civilization will pay the price of their lives.
Ye Sheng is like this.
Jiu De Ya Ji pulled hard, but Ye Sheng's wrist was bitten by the living spirit, and Ye Sheng, who was gradually losing blood and lack of oxygen, didn't know where the strength came from, he suddenly broke free of Jiu De Yaji's hand, and then pushed Jiu De Ya Ji out with the direction of the water.
It's a pity, I just exchanged the first kiss......
Watching Jiu De Aki gradually go out of the door along the water, getting farther and farther away, Ye Sheng, whose vision in his eyes was constantly darkening and darkening, rushed in that direction, maybe it was the direction of Jiu De Aki, trying to make the muscles that were gradually losing blood and becoming cold squirm, and pulled out a smile.
It's a bit ...... Not reconciled.
The living spirit continued to greedily absorb the blood, Ye Sheng's body gradually appeared a little shriveled, that was the phenomenon of a large loss of blood, if it weren't for the vitality brought by the half-blood, he would have died at this moment, however, he had no way to escape at the moment, he had no strength in his body, he couldn't do it if he wanted to break his arm, and he would die early or late, it would not be bad for those minutes.
Fortunately, Aki escaped......
Ye Sheng slowly, closed his eyes, and for some reason, he remembered what he had said to Jiu De Aki before.
"If you were my partner, I would have been killed by you."
Now, he silently added in his heart.
But......
I'd love to die for you.
The flow of water and the strength of Ye Sheng's push made Jiu De Aki gradually come out of the position of the door.
Staring at Ye Sheng with wide eyes, tears surging but instantly blending into the turbulent river around her, Jiu De Yaji hugged him tightly in his arms, like a brass bottle, with a little rust on it, she wanted to roar loudly, but she suppressed the impulse in her heart.
The oxygen she breathed was given to her by Ye Sheng, and the thing in her arms may be an important harvest in this mission, her life was exchanged for Ye Sheng's life, she should turn around rationally, quickly bring this thing back, and go back alive, so that Ye Sheng's death is valuable, so that Ye Sheng will not waste the opportunity to fight for himself with his life!
But...... I don't want to! I just don't want to! The impulse in her heart is unwilling! She didn't want to take care of any task, she didn't want to take care of any task, she just knew that that person was going to die!
The boy who had never been a good swimmer before had to stay in this more than 100-meter-deep, dim water, left alone, and finally the flesh and blood rotted in time, and finally left a skeleton with empty eyes and white bones.
The boy who won the surfing competition was about to disappear from his life.
The guy who used to laugh at himself for his short legs and arrogantly slapped his ass at himself is about to be gone.
The disgusted one said, "Huh! If you were my partner, I would have been killed by you! "Those who are going to be gone forever.
Aki Aki's eyes widened suddenly, and through the position of the door, she saw that in the huge bronze city, a long, uneasy black shadow stirred the water, and was approaching.
