Chapter 100: Sea Monkeys

Sean touched his chin thoughtfully: "So, is this queen of the deep sea so terrifying?" Even the royal family acquiesced in such an arrogant act? ”

"I don't know." Rainer Brown sighed slightly: "Anyway, the fact is that the storms in Wallis City have never stopped before, and although the storms are still frequent now, there are some sunny days after all, and the royal family can't say that it didn't play a role." ”

Sean nodded, looking at the closed window, although he was curious about what kind of sea monster was coming outside, but seeing that Reiner Brown looked adamantly disagree, he had to give up.

However, the mountain man has his own tricks, and Reiner Brown does not allow it, which does not mean that he has no choice, and after a while of greetings, he pretends to lie on the bed to rest, but in fact the person has entered the Temple of Order.

"Master, this is what happens out there."

Today's Hypnos can no longer be regarded as a simple magic mirror spirit, and now since it has been fused with the rules of the temple, it is equivalent to half of the housekeeper of the temple, although I don't know how it does it, but the current situation is that Hypnos casually erected a mirror in front of him, and in the mirror is the situation on the street outside.

Today, the sea breeze is very violent, and it is late at night when no one goes out, and the gas lights on the side of the road seem to be affected by the storm, sometimes flickering, sometimes extinguishing, and the streets are glowing yellow for a while, and then falling into darkness, if it weren't for the black moon overhead still releasing a faint light, this changing light and darkness alone is enough to make people crazy.

However, all this was not so friendly to the pedestrians who had not yet returned home, and they seemed to be greatly frightened, and each of them was screaming and running around, as if they had seen something terrible.

A light sea fog gradually spread along the coastline, and the houses on the whole street were as silent and dreary as the hotel where he was staying, without the slightest sound.

And at this time, in this empty and dead street, an old man with a dim portable lamp in one hand and a hardwood cane in the other hand was slowly wandering the street, he was different from the occasional flustered crowd, every step he took was so smooth and calm, as if everything around him could not affect him.

Woo!

In the gradually thick sea fog, there was a terrifying whimper, as if there were demons and monsters hiding in this sea fog, waiting for the arrival of their prey.

Sean didn't know how he felt when he saw this, but it didn't prevent him from paying all his attention to the old man with the lantern.

"Who is he? What is he doing here? ”

It was the only question in his mind, but unfortunately, no one could answer it for him.

While Reiner Brown should, maybe, probably knows, he can't explain how he sees the outside in the current situation.

Therefore, the only thing he can do now is to be silent.

And at this moment, the picture in the mirror suddenly changed, or rather, the sea fog in front of the old man changed.

Almost in a flash of lightning, a shadow rushed out of the sea fog and clawed at the old man's heart.

"Be careful!"

Sean almost screamed in the temple.

But it was obvious that the old man did not need his reminder, because at the moment when this shadow rushed out of the sea mist, the old man seemed to have foreseen all this, and raised his hardwood cane in advance and swung it over.

Bang!

Before the sudden shadow could touch the corner of his coat, it was drawn to the front, and his whole body flew out almost upside down.

With the flickering light of the gas lamp, Sean finally saw clearly what was attacking the old man.

It was a creature with sharp-beaked monkey gills and an ape-like shape, this creature was wet, with a face like a lion, and a body that was corrupted like a dried corpse, and it looked very strange and terrifying.

"What kind of creature is this?"

As soon as this question came to Sean's mind, the old man on the street had already answered it for him.

"Damn sea monkeys, this is not your range, get back to me!"

Although the old man's voice was very sharp, his expression did not change in the slightest, and even, as his words landed, his whole body suddenly rushed forward like lightning, and the hardwood crutch in his hand also smashed into the head of the sea monkey with a sound of breaking through the air.

Sea monkeys? Could it be the water monkeys and water ghosts that those old people in my hometown said in my previous life?

Inexplicably, Sean thought of the legends told by those old people in his hometown when he was a child in his previous life, and a thoughtful look appeared in his eyes.

According to the legend of the previous life, the "water monkey" is also called the "water ghost", and as the name suggests, it naturally lives in places where there is water. Throughout the big rivers and rivers of the flower planters, remote mountain ponds and reservoirs, the "water monkeys" sometimes "breathe" on the shore.

According to the elderly, although the "water monkeys" generally live in the water, they sometimes come ashore, and are mostly seen in wild water sources such as mountain ponds and reservoirs.

The "water monkey" is dependent on water, and its limbs are weak after ten minutes of being out of the water. In the water, the water monkey is several times more powerful than humans, so if it is held in the water, it is life-threatening.

According to folklore, the water monkey has a huge and mysterious power in the water, can dig under the water and shuttle through different ponds and rivers, catch the person who has fallen into the water and drag it to the bottom, and cover the victim's seven orifices with silt, causing him to suffocate to death, and even legend has it that the water monkey sucks human blood, eats human nails and eyeballs.

However, the water monkeys in the previous life seem to be a little different from the sea monkeys here, and the legendary water monkeys in the previous life cannot leave the water for a long time, but ......

Wait a minute!

Storm!?

Sean looked at the heavy rain in the mirror, and vaguely seemed to understand something, and said: "So, the reason why they go ashore when it's raining is because these water monkeys, oh no, sea monkeys, really can't be out of the water for too long?" ”

When Sean fell into deep thought, the old man's hardwood crutch had already knocked heavily on the door of the sea monkey's head, accompanied by a crisp sound, like the sound of a monk knocking on a wooden fish, the sea monkey suddenly screamed, and his brain was torn apart like a watermelon, and his brain and blood were all over the place. 33

But soon, the surrounding sea fog was a wriggling, and the dead sea monkey corpse, along with the blood and brains that splashed out, was instantly swallowed by the sea fog and disappeared without a trace, as if nothing had happened just now.

Hiss!

Sean couldn't help but gasp, feeling confused.

Looking at the old man again, he seemed to be accustomed to it, but after standing there and muttering a few words, he walked again with a hardwood cane and a lantern towards the depths of the sea fog.

Soon, the figure of the old man gradually disappeared into the thick sea mist......

......

......

Some people died, but not completely......
