[On January 26, 2001, a huge fog suddenly rose outside the Port of Philadelphia. 】

[All electronic communication equipment in the area covered by the fog is disabled.] 】

[After more than half an hour, the fog automatically dissipated, but after the fog dissipated, all the people and animals in the dock area shrouded in the fog fell into a coma, without exception. 】

[A day later, 348 security guards and workers in the dock area died one after another after a day of coma, and the cause of death was ······ Suspected drowning. 】

Drowning?

After seeing the word "drowning", Erin's eyebrows froze slightly, and then accelerated the speed of the mouse's downward movement.

With the mouse sliding.

A dozen whitened photographs, as well as several small videos showing different images, were printed into Erin's eyelids.

After glancing at the white corpse in the photo, which seemed to have been soaked in seawater for a long time.

Erin clicked on one of the videos.

The video appears to have been filmed in a hospital ward.

On the three beds in the ward lay three middle-aged men of similar age with slightly rough skin.

In the first few seconds of the video, everything is perfectly normal.

But in the next moment.

The Latino man in the middle bed suddenly convulsed, and then his mouth and nose began to bubble up into the sea, and the gushing water quickly wet the sheets········

Soon.

The Latina man, who was convulsing, fell silent.

And the surging sea water in his mouth and nose slowly stopped gushing.

"Dead?"

Looking at the man who had quieted down in the video, Erin immediately realized that he was dead.

After the Latino man in the middle bed died, the middle-aged man in the other two beds soon developed similar symptoms.

Ultimately.

It didn't take long for the two to be "drowned" on the hospital bed by the surging sea water from their mouths and noses.

Wait a minute!

Obviously, through the video, why am I so sure that the liquid gushing out of the mouths and noses of those guys is "seawater"?

At first glance, the brain naturally makes a judgment without the need for confirmation.

This is ······ Is it some kind of information pollution?

Ai Lin, whose eyes narrowed, quickly recalled the "rotten" smell on the distorted "Jin He" before.

It's another monster similar to "Jinji", or is it ·······

I don't know if it happened just a few days ago, or if this case involves too many people, and there are too many cases for S.H.I.E.L.D. to count.

There are many more similar videos in this folder.

After briefly flipping through a few similar videos, Erin's attention was placed on a photo at the end of the folder.

It was a picture of a ghost ship almost engulfed in fog.

After staring at the photo for a few seconds, Erin suddenly felt a wave of sleepiness hit her.

"Ha ······"

After an abrupt yawn, Erin's eyelids seemed to be hanging with lead, and he seemed to be about to fall into a deep sleep.

Between half asleep and half awake.

Erin felt as if he had come to a pitch-black depth, and his body was rapidly sinking and sinking in the darkness······· Sink again.

Pu a mouth.

Grunt, grunt·········

A mouthful of salty seawater poured into Arryn's mouth.

Grunt·······

A string of bubbles appeared, surging upwards at the same time, surging from all directions, and the almost endless pressure also quickly fell on Erin.

Pitch black environment······

Weak struggle······

Add to that the increasing pressure······

Depression, despair, fear and other negative emotions quickly breed, as well as the deepest despair!

In the midst of this endless despair.

A faint green glow suddenly appeared in front of Erin.

Immediately after, an incomparably large shipwreck suddenly appeared in Erin's eyes.

It was a very large cruise ship.

Under the strange light of the faint green, the whole body of this huge cruise ship also showed a strange dark green.

The hull is crawling with algae and shellfish·······

Behind the cruise ship, the silhouette of a behemoth looms in the miserable green water illuminated by the faint green light emitted from the cruise ship·······

At the same time that Erin stared at the outline of the behemoth.

The behemoth behind the wreck also seems to have spotted Erin's "gaze".

The next second.

A huge tentacle like an octopus suddenly poked out of the miserable green water behind the wreck, stirring the seawater, and quickly attacked Arryn.

"It's ·······"

As the giant tentacle approached, Erin suddenly discovered that the disc-shaped objects on the octopus tentacles were not the octopus's suckers, but ······ Huge eyeballs.

When Erin's eyes saw the huge eyeballs, hundreds of strange eyes on the octopus tentacles also blatantly locked on "Erin".

At the moment when he was locked by the hundreds of huge eyeballs, a creepy feeling suddenly hit Erin's heart.

"I ······ See... You're ······"

With a vague murmur sounding in Erin's heart, the behemoth behind the wreck emerged from the shadows behind the wreck at a seemingly slow, but unusually rapid speed.

It was a terrifying creature beyond human comprehension, unable to describe in normal language.

It is beyond the limits of human imagination, horror from the depths of the sea!

····························

"Ahh

Almost at the moment when the behemoth completely surfaced.

Under the warning of the almost rebellious madness of the clown's "intuition", Erin's consciousness instantly "woke up" with the help of that hint of surprise.

"Hoo ······"

"Hoo ·······"

Sitting in front of the computer, Erin was panting violently, almost wet with cold sweat.

Beads of sweat the size of beans kept rolling down Erin's face.

Tick ·····

Ticking down on the computer desk in front of Erin.

"That was ······· just now"

As a professional hypnotist, and a professional soothsayer.

Erin quickly realized what he had just been through.

"Lucid dream", or at that moment just now, Erin, who has a super inspiration, directly because of the photo of the ghost ship, reached a sympathy with an unknown existence.

In that moment.

Through the dream, I perceived the ghost ship in the photo, as well as ·······

The terrifying being behind the ghost ship.

After taking a deep breath and calming down a little, Erin thought with an ugly face.

“······· What the hell is behind the wreck just now? ”

If it weren't for the clown's "intuition" just now, the almost rebellious mad warning, and the terrifying thrill of almost facing death, aroused the survival instinct in Erin's heart.

Breaking the confinement from the "deep sea".

Perhaps, at this time, Arryn is about to face the existence behind the ghost ship!

Erin had a strong premonition.

If he hadn't seized the opportunity to come to his senses at that moment, if he wanted to come to his senses again, he might have ······ It's not that easy.

"This is really curiosity killing cats!"

After exhaling a deep breath of turbidity, Erin realized for the first time that it was really not a good thing to be too curious.

Especially for someone as spiritually high as him.

······················

"Suck and suck, suck ·······"

At this time, the little monster who followed Erin into the study seemed to feel the palpitations and uneasiness of his master, and he stretched out his big tongue and kept licking Erin's palm, as if he wanted to soothe the uneasiness in his master's heart.

Feeling the wet warm touch coming from the palm of his hand, Erin's mood eased a little, he rubbed the big tongue of the little monster, and said softly:

"Don't worry, I'm fine."

Although the scene just now was too weird, Erin was not scared to death by a strange "nightmare".

Of course.

With the lesson just now.

Erin also realized that the strange information given by S.H.I.E.L.D. should not be read randomly.

Some ordinary, ordinary transcendent events, or aberrant monsters are just that.

In case it happens again, the incident like the ghost ship just now will encounter a creature similar to the terrifying monster behind the ghost ship, or even more terrifying.

Then, I'm afraid that Erin may not be able to get rid of a similar place like "Deep Sea Dream" again.

"Next, let's see what S.H.I.E.L.D. gives you this information, you have to be careful."

"Well, every time before clicking on the folder, I should first divinate if there is any danger!"

"With my current spirituality, coupled with the help of divination rituals, even beings with a higher personality than me cannot shield my perception ······"

After opening the information for the next day, I got an early warning device.

Erin recalled again the words that echoed in his heart after seeing the countless eyeballs on the octopus tentacles just now.

"I ······ See... You're ······"

After recalling this sentence.

A feeling of irritability rose inexplicably in Erin's heart.

It doesn't feel right.

Do you say·······

After being seen by that terrifying being just now, what imprint or curse did it put on its body?

Come to think of it.

Erin immediately used the ability of the paper man's double, trying to transfer some unknown curse that might exist on his body to the paper man.

But ······

The paper man who was given a stand-in by Erin did not react.

"No response, is it because I'm overthinking?"

Looking at the unresponsive paper figure stand-in, a trace of doubt emerged in Erin's heart, and he even wondered if he was thinking too much.

But as soon as this idea came to mind, it was vetoed by Erin.

"No······· It wasn't necessarily that I was overthinking it, or maybe that gaze or curse level was too high for my paper avatar to replace. ”

Come to think of it.

Erin emptied his spirit, closed his eyes, and through the slightest connection in the darkness, he quickly entered the balance space.

What Erin didn't know was.

As he began to leap into the balance space, a transparent and illusory figure was faintly entwined around his spirit body!

It was an eerie existence like an octopus, full of an indescribable aura.

Beneath the twisted, constantly wriggling body, tentacles continued to wrap around Erin's body.

It seems to exist, and it seems to be non-existent.

This phantom doesn't seem to be going to do anything to Erin, it's just simply wrapping around Erin's soul and marking something.

But just when Erin's spirit body jumped to the balance space with the help of that dark association.

The mysterious balance space seemed to feel a strange breath, and it shook slightly.

Immediately after, the white mist that surrounded the long river of fate flowed slowly like mercury.

Suddenly, it shone brightly, spreading an illusory light like a tide.

Followed by.

Countless mercury-like white mist, like the Milky Way falling from above the nine heavens, instantly swept towards Erin, who was pulled by a mysterious force, and jumped away.

The white mist that fell from above the nine heavens, like a white python, instantly engulfed Erin's spirit body in one gulp.

Under this white mist composed of the mist of fate, Erin's spirit body seemed to have been inexplicably baptized, and it shone with a silvery white light.

"Uh-huh·······"

Erin, who had been startled by the sudden fall of the white mist, soon felt a sense of extreme comfort that made him want to moan.

Meanwhile.

Under the wash of the white mist python, Erin also vaguely saw the strange phantom that was wrapped around his spirit.

The moment he saw that strange phantom, Erin's heart trembled.

"There's ······ something"

But not before Arryn was terrified.

That strange phantom, like ice and snow under the scorching sun, was washed by the white mist python, and there was no room for resistance, so it was quickly disintegrated and dissolved.

Disappear cleanly.

·····························

At the same time.

In a huge ocean trench deep in the Pacific Ocean.

A terrifying being, which could not be described in words, suddenly let out a terrifying wail as if it had suffered a heavy blow.

·······································

·······································
