Ren Yi rushed in. The door curtain shook, and a strange dark green figure squatted on the bed, lifting Dongdong's body.

The thing was about the same size as a human, with muscular muscles and huge strength, and Dongdong's legs were hanging in the air, crying and struggling desperately.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, it immediately turned its head vigilantly, and what caught Ren Yi's eyes was a flat flat hole that looked like a fish. The face was covered with scales, and a huge mouth exposed almost the entire gums, and the fangs were curved and dense, and the saliva was dripping and dripping.

Seeing Ren Yi, it immediately tied Dongdong, who was desperately writhing, to his shoulders. All the spiky fins on his body exploded, and the two bright yellow vertical pupils stared at Ren Yi, ready to attack.

Ren Yi looked at its barbed flippers, which were still stained with blood, and it was indeed it that scratched Yu Yue.

"It looks like an aquatic creature...... Fish monsters? I've found out about it, so I'm going to run away with the prey......"

"Whew-"

The fish monster suddenly dropped Dongdong, let out a roar, and rolled up a gust of fishy wind to rush towards Ren Yi!

"'Yanshi'."

A twisted silk thread suddenly erupted from the fish monster's body, scattering and filling the entire space.

Ren Yi held his breath and concentrated, all the silk threads were red and bright, and they suddenly straightened!

The body of the fish monster froze in the air, unable to move, and fell down in a daze. Slid a long way along the ground, knocking over the corner shelf, spilling things all over the floor.

"That's it! Caught. Ren Yi clapped his hands, kicked away the things on the ground and walked towards it, "Let me study what kind of breed you are......

The fish monster's yellow eyes trembled, full of horror.

At the moment when Ren Yi approached, the fish monster bounced up violently with all his strength, and actually broke free from Ren Yi's control with his will, and fled towards the window!

Hmmm-

The fish monster's claws didn't know what it was grasping, and the white light flashed, reflecting right on Ren Yi's eyes.

Ren Yi instinctively closed his eyes to dodge, and in the blink of an eye, the speed of the fish monster was almost like an afterimage, and he flexibly stepped on the wall to borrow his strength, and jumped across the entire living room.

"It's too late!" Ren Yi immediately picked up the broken soy sauce bottle on the ground and smashed it towards the back.

Bang Dang!

Shards of glass littered the bed. When Ren Yi rushed over to look, the fish monster had already disappeared into the breach.

"Whew," Ren Yi exhaled hard, "careless, let it escape." ”

Ren Yi walked to the side of the bed and picked up Dongdong, who was paralyzed on the ground in fright, and carefully checked the neck that had been scratched by the monster, but fortunately, it came in time and Dongdong was not injured.

Yu Yue's wound was almost healed by the "ghost Buddha", she heard the sound of fighting inside, stumbled over, hugged the child and cried.

In frustration, when he looked up, Ren Yi found that there were a lot of bright red blood stains on the broken glass ballast on the windowsill. The probe looked out the window, and the blood stains were dripping all the way and disappeared into the grass at the mouth of the alley.

"It's hurt?" Ren Yi was overjoyed, "It's easy to find it along the bloodstains!" ”

"Wait a minute—" Yu Yue, who was holding the child, suddenly spoke, her face was a little strange, "What is this?" ”

"After the Advent Era, the strange radiation on the Advent will irreversibly change the traits of the surrounding creatures, and many animals will become strange, even people." Ren Yi explained.

"Of course, now that the fortress city has been built, people's lives are guaranteed, and these mutant animals are basically invisible. It is close to the port of Lingzhou, which is equivalent to the only gap in the entire fortress city. Winter is coming, there is a shortage of food in the wild, and it is possible that monsters crawl into the city along the current. ”

Yu Yue paused, and her voice became hoarse and frightened: "That is to say...... Is it possible for people to become like this? ”

"Just now, when the monster grabbed me with its claws, I saw that it seemed to be wearing a watch."

"Only people can wear watches, right?"

Yu Yue trembled a few times, and suddenly broke down and cried.

"My child's father has a watch on his hand!"

Ren Yi's whole body was cold, and goosebumps all stood up.

In other words, that monster is actually Yu Yue's husband who has been missing for a few days?

Then why are there no anomalies in the homes of the other missing people? Ren Yi thought quickly......

That's right, because his child is still sick!

He became a monster, but he still remembered that he cared about the children at home, and insisted on coming back every day with the last shred of reason...... He knew he couldn't go home now, so he had to stand outside the window.

After turning into a monster, his senses were many times sharper, and yesterday he sensed the smell of strangers in his house, so he didn't appear rashly.

No, if he remembers his children, why does he attack his wife and take away the children?

Ren Yi felt that his mind was a mess again.

In addition to the fact that he is more deeply mutated, the factors that change in this are...... It's me?

It could be so! I left here this morning, and Yu Yue came out to see me, just when he was hiding in the grass.

When he becomes like this, his thinking is definitely not as rational and sober as ordinary people. misunderstood that Yu Yue betrayed him, so he ...... So he's going to take the child away!

That's how it should be!

Oh my God, Ren Yi suddenly didn't dare to think about it anymore, could it be that so many disappeared dock stevedores have all become half-human, half-fish monsters?

Could it be that there is another Advent?

Dockers, ports, ownerless freighters at sea......

Cold sweat broke out on Ren Yi's forehead, and he muttered to himself, "Are so many people already polluted?" ”

Rushing out of the gate, Ren Yi hurried to the port.

"Something's wrong!" He dialed the phone and immediately informed the City Patrol Division and Astragalus.

"Huh?" Astragalus looked confused, "It's early in the morning, I'm still sleeping at home." ”

On the other side of the phone, Ren Yi's voice sounded terrifying like never before: "The port is in danger!" Is there anyone left in our dart game? Notify them to come back! Come back immediately! ”

"Last night, the city patrol department asked everyone to work overtime to salvage, saying that shipping has been stopped for a day, and the turnover of the fortress city is difficult, and it is best to resume navigation normally the next day......"

Astragalus said in a daze.

"They gave double the fee, and many people in the dart game felt tempted, if I hadn't been sleepy to death, I would have stayed ......"

Syllable! Ren Yi hung up the phone.

With a creak, smoke and dust billowed out, and Ren Yi threw the car in the port parking lot.

He ran towards the rising sun on the sea, the cold wind was quite bitter, the sea was golden red, and the unowned giant ships moored on the sea swayed, and the uncleaned things rippled like a large foam.

"Anyone!" Ren Yi shouted.

"Brother Jian? Brother Jianye? ......" Ren Yi desperately echoed the dart master who might stay in Santang, shouting loudly, his voice echoing on the empty beach.

It stands to reason that there should be people patrolling the docks twenty-four hours a day, and the things have not been cleared yet, so there should not be even a shadow of people.

In winter, it is late in the morning, and it is not yet time for the workers to go to work, so the dock is quiet.

However, everything is too quiet at the moment.

Ren Yi stared at the sea with a pale face, and the ominous premonition in his heart was rising rapidly.

"It's so cold outside...... Will they get on the freighter and take refuge from the wind? ”

Ren Yi's mind was in a mess at the moment, and he was unwilling to give up any hope.

"One more thing......"

Ren Yi frowned as he looked at the row of white boat shadows rising and falling on the sea in the distance, and clenched the dagger he brought out of the car with his backhand.

Ren Yi suddenly remembered the mutated dock worker. Based on the example of Dongdong's father, it is inferred that after turning into a fish-man, they will stay away from humans and hide. Judging by their flippers, they should live in the water. The only source of water in the vicinity is the sea in front of you.

So whether it's the missing crew or the stevedores, they didn't actually go far, they just hid in this sea!

The dart masters don't know anything about it, will they be in danger?

He moved the "round sky", and his figure suddenly flickered, and the next second he appeared directly on the deck of one of the freighters.

The cold wind was blowing on the deck, the ground was blown messy, and the hemp rope, rags and other things were blown to the ground by the wind, and no one cleaned up for a long time. Although it was messy, there were no signs of a fight on the ground.

"Anyone?" He whispered vigilantly as he walked inside.

No sound came out, and Ren Yi carefully pushed open the hatch.

Whew-

The air inside the door had just flowed out, and a disgusting stench of rot hit my face!

"Vomit ......" Ren Yi instinctively retched and immediately covered his nose.

Is it the smell of corpses? Was there a homicide on board?

Without hesitation, Ren Yi took a deep breath and rushed out.

Ascend an iron staircase that leads up to the crew's living deck. The crew must have been killed in their sleep without reacting to anything!

Standing on the living deck, the rich smell of suffocation almost made Ren Yi's eyes dizzy.

A lot of rotting ingredients are piling up in the kitchen, and that's where the stench comes from!

Ren Yi calmed down, and only then did he distinguish that the source of the taste was more than one. There was also the cargo hold under the ship, where flies buzzed out from underneath, presumably rotting from a batch of fresh ingredients transported.

"It's good that it's not a corpse,......" Ren Yi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Just as he was about to turn around, Ren Yi saw the living room in front of him.

"But how can no one take care of so many rotten ingredients? The crew must have been killed too......"

The doors of many rooms were open, and Ren Yi frowned and broke into one, and a dark shadow on the narrow bed immediately came into view.

Judging from the slightly bulging shape of the blanket, Ren Yi was very sure that it was a huddled posture!

Sure enough, something happened!

Ren Yi took two steps back, and after getting used to the strong impact in front of him, he slowly walked up.

Judging from the man's posture, he was dead in a dream, with his eyes closed, without any struggle, and without even lifting the quilt.

This is evidenced by the furnishings in his house. On the small table shared by the two of them, there was a box of soaked instant noodles, but at this time, the surface of the paper cup was covered with green hairs.

Ren Yi turned to look at the upper bunk again, the noodles should have been soaked by the man, and his legs were still hanging on the ladder, as if he was waiting to come down to eat after soaking. The man leaned against the wall, maintaining a posture of looking at his phone, and even connected to the charging socket.

"There really wasn't a fight?" Ren Yi was shocked.

It was a huge difference from what he had imagined. He originally thought that the mutation on the ship should be the appearance of a human purgatory full of beaten houses, blood and scratches everywhere, but the appearance of this ship was completely different, more like the crew was resting in boredom, and suddenly death came, taking everyone's lives.

But one thing is for sure, this sudden death of all the people is definitely more bizarre than encountering a fish-man.

"Huh?"

Just as he was about to go out to inspect the other rooms, Ren Yi suddenly noticed the face of the corpse in the lower bunk. A strange feeling floated in Ren Yi's heart.

"Hmm...... How does this corpse look at it, so ......" Ren Yi frowned, not knowing how to describe it.

His countenance was shriveled, his whole body was blackened, his cheek bones were prominent, and his arms exposed outside the blanket were disproportionately elongated.

"Why are you so thin?"

Ren Yi patted his head, and finally figured out the strangeness of this corpse.

It's so skinny! The whole arm is almost only a skeleton, and the neck is so thin that it can't support the head!

Ren Yi immediately went to see the corpse on the top bunk.

Its drooping feet are similarly thin and thin, with only a layer of skin on the outside of its bones.

How can such a thin person be a cargo ship crew?

"It's weird."

The air inside was too pungent for Ren Yi to stand it any longer, so he returned to the hatch and stood on the deck and lit a cigarette.

All the living rooms were inspected, and the crew, without exception, was shriveled and emaciated.

"It's not going to be a captured bum, is it?" Ren Yi muttered.

Suddenly, a soaked note wrapped around the garbage bag and swayed along the water into Ren Yi's line of sight.

It was a list of goods, and at the end there was a receiving unit.

Ren Yi looked at the blurred handwriting, and his heart jumped inexplicably.

Although he couldn't see anything clearly, he could still recognize it by feeling, those four words were "Ren's Dart Game"!

"Huh?" He remembered the phone call yesterday morning, "Could this be the goods ordered by Sister Li?" Capsized at sea? ”

That extrapolates from time...... Normally, it should have arrived ten days ago.

But for some reason, they wandered around the sea, the cargo rotted, and the crew died.

Ren Yi finished smoking a cigarette, his mind was still a mess, and he extinguished the cigarette butt with some irritability.

There is no trace of the dart masters on this ship, why don't you go ashore to look for it? Sheltered in the shipping building?

Just as he hesitated, a figure on the deck of the white ship opposite flickered, attracting Ren Yi's attention.

1.85 meters tall, broad back, familiar tiger head jacket...... It's Hu Jianye, the three-hall dart master!

Ren Yi was overjoyed, waved his hand and shouted, "Brother Jianye!" You're over there! I'll be right here! ”

The ripples in the air writhed, and Ren Yi's figure instantly appeared on the opposite deck.

Hu Jianye was still in his original position, walking back and forth, as if he hadn't heard Ren Yi's words, and his eyes were still drifting to the sea in the distance.

"Brother, what are you looking at?" Ren Yi approached slowly, keeping an eye on him.

He secretly glanced at Hu Jianye's face, Hu Jianye frowned, his eyes thoughtful, not like a precursor to mutation.

Call...... Fortunately, they were not in danger. Ren Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

Hu Jianye still didn't answer, he walked around by himself, his eyes fixed on the water, not knowing what he was looking at.

The atmosphere was a little weird.

Ren Yi mobilized the "round sky", stretched out his hand vigilantly and shook it in front of his eyes: "Brother Jianye? Can you hear me? Can you see me? ”

Hu Jianye's eyes were unmoved.

"It's broken." Ren Yi's heart sank suddenly, "What's the situation!" ”
