Chapter 579: The Tainted Land (Ask for a Monthly Pass!) )

Boom!!

The terrifying sea monster crashed into the side of the merchant ship, and the passengers on the deck staggered, and several obese merchants almost rolled into the sea.

Countless icy waters splashed high and fell like a torrential rain on the deck.

"Ahhh

"Help!!"

"My child!"

Screams of terror mingled with shouts of rage, and chaos was shattered.

Suddenly.

Everything slowed down.

It's like the screen has been pressed down ten times and slowed down.

Chen Lun was still leaning on the guardrail, his expression was calm, a small notepad appeared in his hand, which was spread out, and an ivory white pen was held in his right hand, and he was writing on it.

He raised his head slightly, his calm gaze sweeping around.

Dozens of passengers have panicked expressions on their faces, mothers are nervous and frightened, children are tossed high by the bumps, young women fall to the ground, and men clutch to guardrails or iron rods, their faces flushed.

Boone held the statue of the dead fish in his hand, and under his woolen hat, a pair of eyes spit out anger, and the seven or eight members of the Heart of Knowledge team also took out their staffs and were confronting it.

“…… The homecoming was on the established route from Port Bunsen to the Explorer Islands, but unfortunately encountered a storm and a sea monster, and the ship was full of guests...... Fortunately, fate favored the shipwreck, and although the hull of the ship was damaged, it still floated back to Port Bunsen with no casualties. ”

After Chen Lun wrote this paragraph of black flowers, the pen in his hand disappeared, he closed the small book with one hand, and chuckled:

"There's no story or logic in the script, but it's enough to save these people......"

He blinked.

The next second.

The surrounding scene returned to its normal flow rate.

It's not that Chen Lun manipulates time, but that his powerful mental power, coupled with his terrifying physical fitness, makes his reaction speed too fast, so that the outside world is like slow down.

In fact, in the eyes of others, this black-hatted gentleman did not make any moves from beginning to end, because it only took him a few tenths of a second to write the script and quietly rewrite all this.

Bang!!

Another loud bang.

The hull creaked and tilted sixty degrees, the icy water poured in, and the guardrail on which Boone was leaning broke in response.

He then fell off the deck and plunged into the sea.

The seven or eight members of the Heart of Knowledge team gritted their teeth, and they all cast strange spells, walking out of thin air one by one, floating and gliding on the surface of the sea, chasing after the place where Boone disappeared.

Chen Lun looked back at the chaotic crowd on the deck, and immediately rose into the air and disappeared in place.

Saving this boatload of ordinary people is just a matter of convenience, and as for what will happen to these people after writing the script, he actually doesn't care.

He was more curious about whether there was any connection between the dead fish stone sculpture in Boone's hand and his octopus stone carving?

I don't know if it was because Chen Lun rewrote his fate, the storm gradually left the sky above the Homecoming, and those huge sea monsters also sank back to the surface of the sea and disappeared without a trace.

The surviving passengers cheered, but the captain told them through the loudspeaker that there was a problem with the boiler room and the hull was badly damaged, and that they were left to their fate.

Once again, the passengers were in despair.

However, Chen Lun has long since stopped paying attention to these.

His figure was like a kite attached to the canopy of the sky, streaking high in the air, his eyes fixed on the Heart of Knowledge team and Boone on the sea.

The two sides chased and fled, heading due north.

Boone's coat and scarf were scattered across the sea, and the hat on his head was gone, and he had regained his Finman appearance, his skin covered with dark green scales, sharp teeth, and eyes glowing with a dull yellow color.

The sea was like his home turf, no matter how strong the waves were, no matter how cold they were, they didn't matter to him. Even the speed of swimming alone surpassed the Knowing Heart team gliding behind them.

Boone turned his head far away, glanced resentfully at the pursuing enemy, and then plunged headlong into the sea and dived deep.

The Heart of Knowledge team suddenly lost their target, and they couldn't help but look at each other as they looked at the vast sea. They exchanged a few words urgently, and then began to use magical means to search again......

Chen Lun didn't care about these people, but flew forward with great interest.

Boone deceived the people of the Heart of Knowledge team by diving, but he couldn't fool him, Chen Lun clearly knew that this guy had changed direction under the sea and was quietly swimming northeast.

In the process.

Chen Lun discovered a strange thing.

That is, as you continue to move north, some very strange, even terrifying fish will jump out of the sea from time to time.

For example, a live fish resembling a mackerel is covered in blood, and although it seems to be trying to maintain the shape of its flesh, its skin and scales are still falling off, and the whole has a sticky and smooth scarlet gum texture.

There are also some that look like a combination of shrimp and fish, which are obviously the body of fish, but the abdomen is covered with slender and dense feet, floating under the sea for half a day without moving, I don't know what they are waiting for.

Even some kind of eel, which has never been seen before, has four or five dark bodies and shares a fish head, and at first glance, the whole looks like a mutated black octopus swimming non-stop, but the "tentacles" are several times thicker than the head.

When the shadow cast by Chen Lun swept across the sea, these strange fish would leap out like crazy, open their fine fangs, open and close out of thin air, and click, as if they were gnawing on some delicious but empty food.

Chen Lun's eyes narrowed slightly, and he roughly guessed the truth.

That's the sea, which seems to have been mysteriously polluted......

The pollution gets worse the further north it goes.

But the exact source of the pollution is unknown.

Soon, Chen Lun followed the diving Boone to an archipelago, which was the original destination, the Explorer Islands.

Some faintly visible buildings stood on the wharf, and Chen Lun casually glanced at it and saw that the population of this area was not large, and the total number of people was less than 5,000.

At the same time, the pollution is quite serious......

As soon as Boone came ashore, a group of dock workers came running over happily, as if acquainted with him.

"Brother Boone, did you bring rotten fish?"

The workers took off their dirty hats, and one by one they showed the appearance of finned people.

Boone shook his head and said in a deep voice:

"Nope. On the way, I ran into a pursuit party from the madman school, and I dumped them, but you all be careful, they will most likely chase here......"

"What's the matter, come here, then they don't want to go back."

One of the finman boatmen grinned, baring sharp fangs.

"Mayor Tran is here? I'm looking for her ......."

Boone looked sad and was about to say something when a group of dozen Finman townsfolk came running, dancing and shouting in panic:

"Captain Anglerfish has come to the docks east to plunder again! Rick's family has all been killed! ”

Boone looked furious, pushed a few workers away, and headed east.

The townsfolk behind him told him to be careful, but Boone waved his hand.

Leaving the South Wharf, Boone ran through the complex, and soon arrived at the East Wharf, where a group of Finman pirates were burning and looting, led by a tall Finman of more than three meters, with a large bulb growing on the top of his head.

Under the scales of his body, there were bulging puffs and disgusting tumors, like a fat "bunch of grapes".

Chen Lun watched all this from above.

The Finman pirates who raided here were far more polluted than the townspeople, and they were all deformed, with many scales falling off and pus all over their bodies.

'None of these people are real finmen......

Chen Lun's eyes narrowed slightly.

He saw the past of the fate of these people through peeping.

In fact, both the townsfolk of the Explorer Islands and these so-called pirates were once ordinary humans...... However, it is because of the predation of excessive mutated marine fish that it is contaminated.

At the same time, the demand for that strange fish is getting stronger and stronger.

In Chen Lun's sight, what the pirates looted here was not money at all, but "fish"!

The strange fish stored in each house were like treasures, and some of them were even rotten, but the pirates were even more ecstatic when they found out, and they picked them up and nibbled on the spot.

Fish scales fly, shrunken and blackened stinky flesh is torn and devoured by pirates, and a cloudy fish eye accidentally rolls to the ground...... Chen Lun, who was far away, saw through his terrifying eyes that under the fish's eyeballs, hundreds of nematoids were wriggling and twisting wantonly.

'The Explorer Islands are just a corner ......of the polluted area'

Chen Lun frowned slightly.

It stands to reason that such a large-scale pollution would not have been formed in a day or two, and the Kingdom of Byron was unaware of it, and even the port of Bunsen had ships leading to it...... The Homecoming is an example.

From the moment he set sail, he sensed the discordant atmosphere, but he never found the key point.

On the dock below, Boone has already fought with the "Anglerfish Captain", both of whom are Sequence 5 transcendentals, but Boone is a magic [Sculptor], and the captain is a deep sea [Deep Diver].

Boone summons a large number of rotting fish through a palm-sized "Dead Fish Statue". These strange fish with long legs rushed ashore like a black wave, covering Captain Anglerfish in an instant.

When the battle rages, many pirates are still affected, and in an instant, they are gnawed into a pile of bones by schools of rotting fish.

Chen Lun watched all this silently.

He suddenly raised his eyebrows, and his gaze swept to a small boat on the shore, where a familiar figure was crouching, quietly watching the battle on the dock.

The slender body was simply wrapped in a set of linen robes, the dark green long hair was flying in the wind, and on the good-looking facial features, a pair of eyes were not the look in Chen Lun's impression, but even more cold and indifferent.

'Lucy? ’

Chen Lun glanced at her, his brows furrowed slightly.

Lucy's eyes made him feel strange.

'Sure enough, something changed......

Chen Lun saw that on Lucy's panel, the luck value of the special attribute column was already 100 points as he guessed, and he couldn't help but secretly sigh.

Immediately, he raised his hand again to use poker to divination, and was surprised to find that Lucy, who was supposed to be in Misty Island, suddenly appeared here, as if teleporting.

Chen Lun lowered the brim of his hat and continued to hide in the sky, silently observing.

He wanted to see what was going on.
