Epilogue Volume 7 Mystery and Fog 0383 Day 3: The Abyssal Mouth
It was only at this time that a few people realized that the red water of the lake may not be due to the setting sun, but because these countless red starfish reflected the water in this color.
Six "machetes" slashed at Zheng Xiaofeng's head at the same time, Zheng Xiaofeng didn't dare to carry it, flashed back, fired three shots in a row, and knocked the three starfish into the water one after another.
Bai Qianyu was still standing at the water's edge, but at this moment he had to lean towards the middle of the tree trunk, and there were water splashes on the left and right sides at the same time, and the starfish's blade was hidden in the water, cutting the water into one section after another, and then he had to cut Bai Qianyu's waist. Bai Qianyu hurriedly flipped a backhand, and after lightly pulling away the distance, his backhand was three feather arrows and six flying knives, silver light flashed, and the fire light flew, and the entire tree trunk was shaken by the blasting airflow, but with his balance ability, he only shook his body slightly, but those starfish were all blown up as soon as they came up.
Dong Que's body shook for a while, and he almost went down with the starfish, and when he finally controlled his balance, he immediately turned around and shouted to Bai Qianyu: "Old Bai! You're so quiet! You want to kill me?! β
Bai Qianyu sighed, and said in his heart that it was really better to be alone, before he met this group of people, it was okay to make a lot of noise, anyway, as long as he could withstand it, but now that he has teammates, he really can't make big moves, so looking at it, it seems that the only teammate who can catch up with him is Shen Qianjue......
"I don't know if in her eyes, I'm also a person who gets in the way......" Bai Qianyu had a momentary moment, but soon devoted himself to the battle again, about Shen Qianjue, he didn't think about it now. Xu Qingyun didn't look at the situation on the trunk of the tree, but shot all the bullets into the nearby water, and handed over his back to a few other people with confidence.
Xu Qingyun's marksmanship is indeed excellent, maybe the number of starfish in the water is too dense, every time he fires a shot, at least three starfish will be hit by bullets, floating on the water little by little, motionless. I saw that he was engrossed and intent, and in just five seconds, he fired all the bullets of the entire expansion magazine, and the water was soon covered with fleshy crimson corpses.
was illuminated by the blood-red remnant sun again, revealing a bit of a demonic smell full of fishy smell.
Dong Lacking's palm thunder is not released particularly frequently, but it can always come in time when the number of starfish in the trunk is about to get out of control, Zheng Xiaofeng is fighting, and he also understands in his heart that his mana must be saved, and strive to recover to his peak state when he finally fights with the man in red, otherwise it will be consumed all the way, and it may not be as good as his junior brothers and sisters in the end.
Except for Zhao Wanbi, these people are all experienced in battles, plus the firepower is not bad, they really haven't been injured for half a day, and the number of starfish seems to be ridiculously large, but fortunately, they are not swimming in the water, and in the case of being down-to-earth, they really can't pose much of a threat to them.
Soon, the corpse of the starfish was already covered with a full layer nearby, Xu Qingyun finished this magazine, and suddenly stopped shooting, and after Zheng Xiaofeng and Bai Qianyu cleaned up the dozen on the trunk, they looked at Xu Qingyun and asked him, "What's wrong?" Out of bullets? β
Xu Qingyun shook his head and replied, "Noβthey seem to have dispersed. β
Only then did a few people come back to their senses, and they all looked into the water, and sure enough, they saw that those red shadows were swimming farther and farther, and after a while, they were hidden in the depths of the water, and they could no longer be seen.
"Ah, this ......" Bai Qianyu shook his neck, looking a little unsatisfied, "Ran away so soon?" This combat effectiveness is really average. β
"Maybe they also know what to be afraid of," Zheng Xiaofeng said...... "After all, we have already killed too much." β
Indeed, looking at it, the corpses floating on the water are afraid that there are already hundreds, some have been pierced by bullets, and some have been cut into several pieces by knives, not counting those who were blown to pieces by Bai Qianyu, in short, the death is very miserable.
Zhao Wanbi looked at it for a while, and found that there were indeed no longer living starfish nearby, so he hurriedly said: "Then let's go forward and paddle forward, and take advantage of this opportunity to leave here as soon as possible." β
Several people agreed, but they didn't have oars, so they had to paddle forward by hand, which was better than nothing.
The trunk swung the corpse aside, but they had just made a short row when a sudden wave of water alerted everyone.
The calm surface of the lake suddenly churned without warning, and a not-so-small wave appeared out of thin air, pushing several people hard.
"Huh?" Dong Que glanced at a few people in confusion and asked, "No wind and waves?" What's the situation? β
Zheng Xiaofeng was originally squatting and paddling, but when he saw this, he immediately stood up and looked around cautiously.
Zhao Wanbi thought that the starfish was back again, so he hurriedly looked into the water, but there was nothing in the water, which made people even more confused.
That wave feels too abrupt and there is definitely something wrong.
"Could it be that the water on the other side of the waterfall suddenly increased, causing the water to rise on our side?" Zheng Xiaofeng hesitated, but said a reasonable guess.
But no one answered him, after all, no one could provide evidence for this speculation, and he was thinking about it, when he heard a "whew", another wave appeared out of thin air and slapped out of thin air.
"it!" Zhao Wanbi scolded, almost fell into the water, this time it was much bigger than the wave just now, a few people were a little panicked now, this cliff is not normal, and before Zhao Wanbi's words fell, the entire lake was all turbulent.
The trunk of the tree was slapped to a height of more than two meters at once, and then fell heavily on the surface of the lake, everyone scolded, fell down, and quickly grabbed the bark, followed by wave after wave, for a time the whole lake was like a big basin, as if a pair of hands were leaning back and forth with the basin.
"What the hell? Could it be an earthquake?! Dong Que shouted.
"I'm afraid not!" At this time, I heard Bai Qianyu squeeze out a few words from between his teeth in horror, "Look at the center of the lake!" β
Several people reluctantly raised their heads while holding the trunk of the tree with all their might, and then they saw a scene that made them jaw-dropping.
An incomparably huge whirlpool appeared on the surface of the lake, presenting a deep black hole in the center of the lake, and all the surrounding lake water was attracted to it, at first glance, the diameter of the whirlpool was afraid to be dozens of meters, just like an extremely large drum washing machine!
At this time, the few people were only sixty or seventy meters away from the center of the whirlpool, and they could already clearly feel that the tree trunk was drifting rapidly in that direction.
"How is this possible?!" Dong Que was stupid, "This is Siphon Lake?!" β
The so-called siphon effect, in simple terms, is a fucking flush toilet.
In other words, there is a huge toilet that wants to flush these goods, and I don't know where it will be flushed.
"Run! Can't be sucked in by it! Bai Qianyu reminded, but Xu Qingyun laughed out loud and asked, "You tell me how to run?" β
Bai Qianyu was speechless for a while, to be precise, everyone was speechless, such a big current, such a high water velocity, in fact, they didn't need to try at all to know, no matter how they struggled, they would definitely be sucked in in the end.
"What then?! This lake is absolutely deep! If you go in, you'll die! Zhao Wanbi shouted wildly.
As he spoke, the trunk of the tree got a lot closer, and several people had begun to feel the world spinning.
Zheng Xiaofeng forcibly held back his rapid breathing, learned Cheng Ruxue's train of thought, and tried to think: "Since we can't escape, we can only see if there is any way to prevent us from drowning even if we enter the water." β
The so-called Cheng Ruxue's thinking is to list all possible directions, once a certain direction has obviously been blocked, then don't think about everything related to it, which will make the thinking extremely fast and clear. Zheng Xiaofeng's eyes suddenly lit up, and his heart said Isn't this way coming!
"Lao Dong! Fast! Your spiritism! β
As soon as Dong Que heard this, he immediately reacted, his expression couldn't help but be excited, and he hurriedly began to cast spells.
Everyone suddenly felt a stream of air entering their bodies, and Bai Qianyu hurriedly asked, "What did you do?!" β
"In a short period of timeββ! All of us will have a tremendous increase in our lung capacityββ! Dong Que explained, "Take a deep breath!" If you don't breathe for twenty minutes, you should be fine! β
Several people seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw at this time, and hurriedly opened their mouths and sucked hard, but after thinking about it, they still felt fear, what if after twenty minutes, the whirlpool still didn't stop? Or maybe they're sucked into the deepest part of the lake and stuck, and they're still going to drown?
It can only be said that he didn't expect the mosquitoes on the first night to trigger such a huge chain reaction, if Dong's missing mana was not so consumed, there should be no problem for a few people to hold it for a few hours. It can only be said that the mana given to him by Jiang Zhonghan is so mellow that even God can't stand it, so he has to weaken him by a wave.
Suddenly, the sound of the lake pouring into my ears was heard, and several people, along with the trunks of the trees, were completely engulfed in the whirlpool.
Zheng Xiaofeng's mind was dizzy for a while, and his stomach wanted to vomit, this speed was too terrifying, and he vaguely seemed to see that he was spinning wildly around a tornado, the light was getting darker and darker, and several people were sinking deeper and deeper.
This wave is really about to be stirred up, if anyone has a brain in the water, the brain must have been shaken into a pulp now.
Not only that, the oppressive force of the water pressure brought people a stronger sense of panic, such a rapid sinking, whether it was psychological or physical is difficult to bear, the five people all clung to the trunk of the tree, and did not dare to let go for a moment, although it may not be useful, it is completely in the hands of grasping things, barely able to count some psychological comfort.
With such little strength as Dong Lack, he almost got rid of his hands several times, so he really didn't know where to be dumped.
It was dark all the way for I don't know how long, Zheng Xiaofeng almost kept his eyes closed, and suddenly, his shoulders sank, and it seemed that someone was patting him.
Who is Zheng Xiaofeng talking about? What are you doing? At this time, there are still people who have the leisure to shoot themselves? While pondering, he opened his eyes, and after barely overcoming the stinging pain, he could see the people around him a little bit.
On the left is Xu Qingyun, and on the right is Bai Qianyu, it turns out that the two of them are filming themselves.
Zheng Xiaofeng had no choice but to make a grimace, meaning to ask, what are you doing?
Xu Qingyun seemed to have a smile on the corner of his mouth, Zheng Xiaofeng's heart sank, knowing that the more he laughed, the more it meant that there was nothing good, so he turned his head to look at Bai Qianyu again. The white Qianyu's hair was about to be thrown away, and it took a lot of effort to free up a hand, and his face was extremely ugly and pointed to the bottom.
Zheng Xiaofeng didn't have time to think about it, and subconsciously looked at the deepest part of the lake.
As a result, he almost forgot that he was still holding his breath, and he was almost about to scold.
At this moment, his face was probably even more ugly than Bai Qianyu.
A huge eyeball that almost covered most of the bottom of the lake was staring straight at them at the moment! In that pitch darkness, the eyeballs were half-clear, and a rough estimate was that it was not bigger than an entire open-air stadium, which was really terrifying!
There was no flesh and blood near the eyeball, but a much larger black hole, and the nearby water, aquatic plants, and wood slag were all sucked into the black hole without exception, and these people were obviously forced to move there.
"It's cold!" Now Zheng Xiaofeng has completely understood, what kind of siphon effect is this, this is clearly a starfish ancestor is hungry and is going to eat!
