Chapter 26: The Black Tide
76 degrees north latitude, deep in the Arctic Ocean. The sea is covered with solid ice, and the water is emerald green in the sunlight.
In the deep sea, the salinity is so high that light cannot be transmitted, and it is pitch black.
A large number of benthic organisms float slowly in it, no need to think, no need to worry, just wait slowly for their demise -
That's how it should be.
Until a burst of blood red enveloped them, and the next moment, all benthic creatures disappeared without a trace.
An unusual black color appeared here, disformed, chaotic and distorted.
Even in the deep darkness of the ocean, such blacks cannot be obscured, like a map with the wrong shade.
Without a fixed posture, it contracts and expands, as if a creature is breathing.
Perhaps, it is a creature, a creature that has not been recorded.
It wasn't supposed to be this way.
Absorb nutrients and grow according to the template that has been made long ago, this is the prescribed procedure.
However, the program was terminated. No, it should be said that the existence of the control program is gone.
Without the program, it can no longer be framed by the template, and after devouring the benthic organisms in the nearby seas, it instinctively pursues more nutrients.
Float up, must float up.
From the original 10,000 meters, 7,000 meters, 3,000 meters...... to the last five hundred meters.
On the way, it can be as big as whale sharks and as small as fungi. Nothing escapes its prey.
Its size has also increased exponentially, and it is now a kilometer long.
The originally emerald sea surface turned black and oppressive as it rose.
Inadequate...... Not enough!
Dense eyeballs opened violently on the surface of its body, each one of which was a strange gold. Not only that, but its body also popped out tens of thousands of tentacles, shooting in all directions.
Each of the tentacles has dense mouthparts and suction cups that seem to exceed the limits of human aesthetics.
As more and more nutrients are ingested, a sense of fluidity unconsciously appears in its body, and that sense of fluidity makes it unconsciously absorb the emotions of the devoured creatures, hunger, exhaustion, comfort, longing, hunger......
If Lu Ming wasn't here, he would definitely be shocked by this thing, because this thing was cultivating his Universal Killing Method.
Incomprehensible, the dark shadow can't understand these instinctual emotions, it needs more, even emotions that can be out of instinctive control.
The sheer volume brought with it a tremendous flow, and the force in it grew wildly with every breath.
Lack...... Incomplete ...... Eat!
At this time, a small cruise ship was sailing not far from it.
Poachers who hunt rare species such as polar bears and arctic foxes are drinking and talking.
At this moment, a sailor suddenly shouted: "Look, the sea ahead is ...... It's black! β
The others looked in, and saw exactly what the sailor had said. Everyone on board was a veteran of the sea, so it was strange that they knew what the sea should look like under the bright sun.
Seeing this, the first mate thought that he should retreat a little and bypass this black sea. The captain gave the order directly: "Come closer, I have a feeling that I may be about to pick up the treasure." β
Seeing that the highest-ranking captain had spoken, the crew naturally did not run to insist on a united front with the first mate. The first mate could only helplessly follow the instructions, and his heart became more and more uneasy.
A thick tentacle crept up on the ship's chassis, and the proud captain was thinking about his dream of making a fortune. The greedy poacher did not know that he was about to be buried by his own greed,
"Boom!"
The entire cruise ship was overturned, and the people on board instantly sank into the icy waters, and they didn't realize what was happening. But the instinct to survive caused them to slide their legs upstream.
Dark shadows flashed, and hopeful people lost consciousness.
Greed, pleasure, fear, anger, despair......
A lot of emotions stimulate it.
Gradually, the nascent mind emerges, and it begins to think.
Want to be whole. will die. Dormant. Eat. Practice. Get stronger. Eat. Complete.
Even if it had evolved a vocal organ, it didn't dare to roar, because it knewβ
His own half-body, very strong.
If you are discovered, you will have no choice but to die.
Forbear!
......
Lu Mingfei didn't perceive the deep malice towards him in the far Arctic.
Is 'it' too well hidden? Or does Lu Mingfei not care at all?
I don't know.
At the moment, he was busy teaching Yizi Fenrieu martial arts.
Lu Mingfei flicked his fingers, and a burst of energy hit the back of Fenrir's hand, and the dark skin immediately turned a large area of black purple.
"Stupid! How can you use it like this, this trick [Vientiane] is like shaking a flower hand in your hands! Stand there and watch while I'll demonstrate one last time! β
Fenrir didn't dare to move, so he could only watch the black-faced old bean perform in a boxing fight.
Lu Mingfei clenched his fists at his waist with both hands, and then swung them out violently.
The arms are as hard as steel bars when they are swung, but they become as soft as noodles when they are about to be fully unfolded.
The two fists are only slightly crossed, but they give the illusion that they are intertwined roots.
Watching this punch, Fenrir only felt that his eyes were glazed, and there were fists all around him.
In fact, it's true.
The air in front of Lu Mingfei's eyes seemed to have been hit by hundreds of fist moves, making a dense explosion.
"How, how much have you learned?" Lu Mingfei asked.
Fenrir was really going to be vomited by this operation, and when his sister tried to teach him how to use force, she would often explain the principle. He didn't listen, but he could understand it.
In addition to demonstrating, this father-in-law, who has a dark face every day, really doesn't talk about anything at all, and if he can't learn, he will be punished, but he can't help but practice.
Sister, I miss you so much!
Fenrir could only say with a bitter face: "I learned...... Semi-...... Not? β
The next moment, Fenrir only felt an extreme danger befell him, the pores behind him tingling, and cold sweat dripping down his forehead. Instinct urged him to run quickly, but there was a signal that he couldn't run. He felt like he was dying.
But in an instant, that feeling of danger was gone.
Stepfather Lu Mingfei said expressionlessly: "My martial arts are quite profound, and you have learned half of it in three days, which is quite good, but on the road of martial arts, if you don't advance, you will retreat, and you must not slack off." That's all for today's training. β
Looking at his back as he turned to leave, Fenrir blinked, "Didn't I say it's not half there?" β
Anger gushed out like a volcano, and Lu Mingfei couldn't control his emotions anymore. "Evil obstacles! You're going to practice, right?! Lao Tzu will practice with you for a night today! If you don't eat Vientiane thoroughly, you won't want to go anywhere! β
He thought about it, today, neither he nor Fenrir wanted to be the first to get out of this door, and whoever came out was stupid!
