169 shells
Somewhere, at a depth of 1,700 kilometers, in the bottom of an undersea valley.
The undead who were rare outside actually gathered here in groups of hundreds at this time.
And among the many immortals...... There is a strange existence with an extremely large size!
The height of his human body is more than ten meters, and he lies on the bottom of the sea like a giant...... What was supposed to be the position of the human head was replaced by a huge mussel shell, which was fifteen meters in diameter! It looks like a giant's head sticking into a shell-shaped house.
At this time.
"Good job, I actually caught a few humans." There was a dull sound from among the huge shells.
Just in front of the shell, there was a team of more than a dozen immortals, holding three human beings of different shapes with their hands and feet!
"Wang, it is our pleasure to serve you." This group of undead obviously coveted the prey in their hands, but they still forcibly held back, and slowly pushed several transcendents to the edge of the shell.
Suction.
The shell opened a slit slightly, and several transcendents were instantly swallowed in.
After a while, there was a sigh of satisfaction from the shell, and then, opening a slit, spat out several pearls the size of a human head.
"This is your reward...... Shell said in a low voice.
Several undead looked at each other, all of them showing excited expressions, and rushed up!
Those pearls...... Faintly transparent, it seems to be wrapped in something.
The undead quickly smashed the pearl and discovered that it was actually sea creatures inside.
Some are small shrimps, some are small crabs! There are also slightly larger fish, or fat little turtles.
One by one, they were sealed in the pearls, seemingly in a state of dormancy, but when the pearls were broken, they gradually woke up and moved again.
"Mine!"
"It's mine!"
This group of undead instantly fought wildly.
The other immortals swallowed their saliva in the distance, looking at the group of immortals vying for foodβthe king said that this was a reward for them, and naturally the other immortals did not dare to act rashly, and could only look at them greedily.
At this moment, the huge shell with a diameter of fifteen meters suddenly opened slowly until it opened nearly 100 degrees.
At this time, I can see that among the shells, there are dense circles of teeth, not to mention hundreds of circles!
And in the deepest part of the countless circles of teeth...... It's a human face of a mold lake.
"Go ahead...... Catch more humans and search for the location of their lair......" The human face squirmed and made a sound, accompanied by the slow movement of the shells, which seemed to sound directly from the depths of the hearts of all the immortals present, "As long as you listen to me, you will receive my reward...... A reward that tastes better than human flesh......"
"Go, go......"
In the echo of the voice, the undead in the submarine valley all turned around and left the valley as if they were stunned.
A group of a dozen swam in all directions and quickly disappeared.
"Huh...... A bunch of idiots. After all the immortals left, the lakeman laughed sharply, "A little psychological hint will make them believe that these fish, shrimp and crabs are better than human meat, and they will exchange humans for me one by one...... And all I paid for was a little spare ration that I had stored over the years. β
If you look closely, you'll find out.
Inside the huge shell, in the rows and rows of teeth, there are many large and small pearls stuck, which look like a pile of dental calculus.
And among these pearls, the shadows of small sea creatures can be faintly seen.
"I've really eaten enough of these gadgets, and they still taste like human flesh." The huge shell was slowly closing, and inside, the three transcendents who had just been captured had been pierced on several narrow teeth, and they were already lifeless.
Wisps of blood oozed from the wounds of their bodies, greedily sucked into their mouths by the deepest human faces.
No one knows better than him that the life in the oceans, while few, is not completely extinct.
The sea is so huge...... Although the gods have transformed the environment of the earth, even in some remote corners of the land, there is still unpolluted air, and there are some remaining farms and farms...... And in the sea, again, not all places have been contaminated with toxins.
This "king" of the undead has a special gift ability, which can use a method similar to psychological suggestion to call the scattered sea creatures in the vicinity to approach...... For many years, he slept in the depths of the cracks in the seabed, devouring many passing sea creatures, swallowing them in shells, and then sealing them in pearls with slime, like canned grain.
Now it comes in handy.
ββββ
Lupin listened to the shrill whistle coming from ahead.
He was almost certain that it was the call of a dolphin, a sense of familiarity that came from the "same kind" after taking on the form of a smart dolphin.
But it only made him even more stunned.
"In the ocean today...... Will there still be wild dolphins? Lupin was surprised.
He believed that captive-bred dolphins should exist, after all, many of the transcendents of the Crystal Palace had porpoise genes fused with them, where did these genetic potions come from? There are some other marine genes, where do they come from? Lupin believed that the Remnant probably had a number of live animals for research.
But wild dolphins ......
You know, often only in waters where there are enough species to have large predators, for example, if you see sharks in the sea, then you can conclude that there must be many other species of marine life in the nearby waters, and they must be well nourished, the ambient temperature is suitable, and so on.
It's like a pyramid, you can only build higher if the base is large enough! Only a rich and diverse bottom species can support and develop those large trappers at the tip of the pyramid!
Dolphins are such large predators.
Lupin knew that although the ocean was empty, he might still occasionally encounter small fish and shrimp, but he could only find it incredible to encounter live dolphins.
This interrupted his plans.
Listening to the fear in the sharp whistle, Lupin suddenly turned into a smart dolphin form, no longer suppressing speed, but chasing forward at full speed!
The undead who passed by were easily devoured by him.
kept chasing forward, and the strength of the undead encountered became stronger and stronger, but under the three turns, it was still not the enemy of the Zhi Dolphin form, and the size was one bite.
It wasn't until two minutes later that Lupin caught up with the only three-turn undead at the front!
That guy was desperately chasing a silver-gray figure in front of him at this time.
Lupin fixed his eyes, and it was indeed a dolphin, with smooth silver skin, about 2.5 meters in length, swimming desperately at this time, trying to shake off the pursuers behind him.
There was a kind of hurried whistle coming from his mouth, and Lupin could already hear a hint of desperation in it.
The swimming speed of the three-turn undead was obviously slightly higher than it, and it couldn't shake it off no matter how hard it tried, seeing that the two sides were getting closer and closer, the tentacles of the three-turn undead were almost touching the tip of its tail!
At this moment, a huge shadow appeared behind him, and the Three Turns Undead seemed to feel something strange and turned around reluctantly.
When I turned around, I saw a smiling face close to Chi Chi - the corners of the mouth of the Zhi Dolphin seemed to smile upwards forever, but the body was so huge that it was terrifying, six meters long, twice as big as him, a three-turn immortal! The smiling "giant monster fish" was already 10cm behind him, staring at him maliciously.
