Chapter 13: Many levels
Also, these ancient creatures can survive to this day, can live in such a cruel environment under the deep sea, can endure hundreds of degrees of water temperature, and feed on underground magma, naturally they should have their extraordinary skills.
In this way, after discharging all the way and moving forward for a few hundred meters, I suddenly found that there were more and more floating corpses around me, and they were very dense, and when I felt that something was wrong, the hypnotic tune in my ears suddenly increased, and a vague feeling suddenly came to my brain again.
I hurriedly urged more innate vitality to protect my ears, but this time, the soft tune was very penetrating, not only could it penetrate the headset and pierce into my ears like before, but it also seemed to stretch straight into my brain like a brain, and the energy filled in my ears didn't seem to be able to completely block the entry of this sound.
The sleepiness is getting thicker and thicker, and the eyelids are a little heavy, since the beginning of the practice, there has never been such a moment that makes people so sleepy and want to sleep. , seeing that my brother was about to fall asleep, I didn't know what to do, so I could only use the most earthy method, so I hurriedly stabbed myself in the thigh with a golden sword.
Mother, the golden sword is too sharp, I thought that if I stabbed it lightly, it completely pierced my brother's thigh. The tingling sensation is immediately transferred from the nerves in the legs to the brain, and when the pain and lethargy are combined, the mind is suddenly much clearer.
But this feeling of drowsiness is still strong, and it comes into the mind wave after wave, but fortunately, the vitality in the ear has blocked part of the effect, otherwise my brother may have fallen asleep in the clouds. In desperation, when waves of sleepiness suddenly attacked, I stabbed my body with a golden sword to resist the effect of hypnosis.
After a few waves, the hypnotic sound finally gradually became smaller, but two eyes suddenly appeared in front of it, emitting a light red light, and when it swam in, it turned out to be a super moray eel with a length of nearly ten meters, behind it, followed by countless normal moray eels, it seems that this big guy should be the head of the moray eel.
Before, I had never observed how the moray eel was hypnotized, and when the moray eel king got closer, he found that the two tentacles of its head wave actually emitted a slight flash, and by swinging out waves of water ripples, this water pattern was extremely obvious in the water, similar to the ripples of the circle after throwing stones into a calm lake, spreading under the water.
Could this be a sonic attack, I thought to myself. At this time, although I held down the acupoint to stop the blood, the blood that had flowed out was scattered in the water, so that these moray eels smelled the smell, and one by one they grinned and burst their teeth out, and rushed towards me at a faster speed, but the moray eel king, who was the commander of one side, was quietly watching me from behind.
It wasn't until I used a higher voltage again to flush the moray eel out of the encirclement, that the moray eel king finally swam more than twenty meters in front of me and faced me, a pair of pale red eyes like cat's eyes, the pupils were erected slits, and the two small tentacles on the top of the head emitted a faint orange shimmer.
Not knowing what it was trying to do, it stared straight at me in front of me. But I don't want to waste more time, if I don't leave, I will have to go through a lot of trouble after the conger eels that were electrocuted by the corona come to my senses.
So, I swam to the left, intending to go around the moray eel king and continue on my way. Who knows, as soon as I turned to the left, this guy also followed to the left and blocked the front,, just watch the fish belly of the moray eel king suddenly bulge, as if he was going to give birth, and bulge a huge bag.
Oh no, I think this big guy is going to do something. Just look at the huge bulge moving down the belly of the fish to the gills, as if the fish is about to vomit. I quickly swam to the side, but the moray eel's head was always facing me, and suddenly it opened its mouth, and fuck, it spewed out a mouthful of fiery red magma!
At such a close distance, the magma shot in front of me in the blink of an eye, and in a hurry, there was no time to dodge, and in the blink of an eye, the magma enveloped me heavily.
From the eyes of the Moray King, the target's whole body was already covered with magma, and the fiery red magma gradually turned black in the seawater, forming a humanoid black solid mass. The moray eel swam up to the black solid mass and took a big mouth, and a huge suction force was generated in its mouth, and the entire black humanoid solid mass was sucked into its throat, and it was directly inserted into the esophagus without chewing.
It thought I had been scalded to death after being wrapped in lava, but in fact, my brother was not dead. Of course, it's not that I won't die as the protagonist of the novel, I will die anyway, it's just that it's not time to die yet.
When the magma enveloped me, I charged the surging electric energy into the innate vitality of the talisman, because the vitality contained Lei Yuan force, after getting the input of electric energy, a layer of "Lei Yuan Gang Qi" was immediately formed on the surface of the whole body, like a thin blue energy cover, which protected me closely, offsetting the high temperature of nearly 1,000 degrees of magma.
I used my golden sword to break through the black magma solidification that wrapped around me, and, I was in a dark, soft and slimy place, and my mind swirled, and I finally realized that I must have entered the belly of the moray eel king. , Pinocchio.
Don't look at these ancient moray eels from the outside to the touch of the body like steel wire, but into the body is still soft and moist, there are also some broken bones and minced flesh around, I don't dare to think about it, if there is light, see the human intestines and limbs, then I don't know how disgusting it will be.
It may have entered the stomach, the stomach wall is still squirming, this kind of stomach that can digest magma will definitely secrete extremely strong digestive juices, I only feel that my body seems to be hot, as if there is a strong acid that is corroding my Lei Yuangang qi.
Forget it, there is nothing to be nostalgic for in this kind of place, and now that this moray eel has carelessly swallowed my grandson monkey into its belly, then I can't care about being polite. I closed my eyes, not wanting to look at my surroundings, and after several thick arm-like beams of light shot out from the tip of the sword, I only felt a spasm in the eel's stomach, and I couldn't move anymore.
The innate vitality is transported to the sword body, and the pure physical chopping of the fish belly, under the light of the sword body, I only see the fish belly being twisted into a pulp by me, after a fierce split, the edge of the golden sword is completely revealed, before, I always rely on the electric energy in the sword, in fact, the golden sword itself, is an extremely sharp blade.
After breaking open the belly of the fish, I finally got out. At this time, the surrounding area was surrounded by moray eels, and then, the most unbelievable scene happened: the moray eels seemed to understand that their boss had been taken care of by me, so they actually swarmed into the body of the moray eel king, or absorbed it into the body of the moray eel king and carried out a crazy cannibalization!
In this process, I don't know whether it was out of awe or disdain for me, no moray eel attacked me again, and in an instant, the king of moray eels, which was more than ten meters long, was eaten by his own men, leaving a huge fish bone empty.
I was dumbfounded, I didn't expect the moray eels to even eat their own boss so much, seeing that this group of moray eels seemed to be full of wine and food after eating the moray eel king, they completely ignored my existence, and swam back to the deep underground abyss like birds and beasts.
It's just that in the remaining fish skeleton, which was originally the position of the head of the moray eel king, there were two small beads that emitted glowing red light suspended in the water. I swam over and grabbed it in my hand, like two small glass beads, crystal clear, red light looming. After thinking about it, the tentacles of the Moray Eel King's head emitted such a red light before, and it seems that these two glass beads may be the source of the red light on the antennae.
No matter how you look at it, these two glass beads are extremely unusual, I guess I have picked up the treasure again, I stuffed it into my pocket, and continued to swim towards the deep front.
Swimming along the way, I roughly counted the members of the Dark Church who were eaten into skeletons by the moray eels, and there were dozens of them, among them, there were also two other huge moray eels that were eaten into skeletons, and it seemed that they could be other moray eel bosses who were cleaned up by the Dark Church.
After roughly counting the number of people, in this way, most of the original nearly 300 or so people have been lost after going through three levels, and it is estimated that there are only more than 100 people left.
Along a floating corpse, slowly swim into another corridor, surrounded by white flowers and rock walls, the difference is that this corridor obliquely upward, and there are neat stone ladders, each stone ladder is flat, wide and long, the whole corridor looks like a square.
It seems that he has already entered the upward channel, and if he is not far from what Qingsi said, if he continues to walk up, he will almost reach the Great Western Continent guarded by the Atlanteans.
When you climb the stairs in the water, you can't just use your feet to exert force, you still need to use your hands and feet upstream, and then I looked at the amount of oxygen cylinders, and one bottle of oxygen was about to run out. At the beginning, we carried two bottles each, which means that if we can't reach Daxizhou, then the oxygen reserves have already started to run short.
What is strange to me is that although I had been delayed for a few hours to absorb the Jiaolong Neidan, I had never seen the living Dark Knight along the way, and it stands to reason that if they sensed the shortage of oxygen, they might have turned back some of them, could it be that they had already arrived?
When I was swimming up the stairs for nearly a thousand meters, just as I was still trying to swim upstream, suddenly, my head suddenly came out of the water, and there was air around me!
, Qingsi said that there will be air after going up the passage, but after more than ten hours of diving, he suddenly returned to the world with air, which made people suddenly have an illusion, as if they were still in the water, similar to the sense of loss that their arms still want to swim in the water.
The air analyzer on his arm showed that the air quality in this secret place deep underground was surprisingly good, with a slightly higher oxygen content than usual and almost zero dust pollution. I took off my helmet and oxygen mask and tied it around my waist, and I felt really comfortable breathing in the fresh air.
If there is air all the way after that, then the return oxygen is almost enough. Walking along the stone staircase with white light, a human-high statue appeared above the staircase, and when I got closer, it turned out that a small platform in the middle of the staircase was specially excavated here.
About seven or eight meters long and wide, standing in the center of the platform is a stone statue of a mermaid, holding a trident in her hand, and the delicate facial carving can be seen that the mermaid has a beautiful face.
The statue held the trident in both hands and pointed it at me, as if to warn the comer, and the place behind it was forbidden, and its eyebrows furrowed with a hint of majesty. I took a closer look, the upper body of this mermaid is basically the same as a person, but there are two more gills around the lower jaw, and below the navel is the fish tail, with large fish scales, the fish tail is wide and long, and the lower part of it can support the whole body upright with a little coiling, but I don't know if it is convenient to walk.
Seeing the statue of the fish-man, it means that it is not too far away from the destination, and it also confirms the authenticity of the Little Mermaid caught by the Holy See of Light four hundred years ago.
After walking more than 200 meters, a small square appeared, the rectangular square was about 300 meters long and about 50 meters wide.
On the 300-meter-long stone wall, there are nine huge holes, each of which is the same size and height, more than ten meters wide and five or six meters high, so that people don't know which one should enter through that hole.
This may be another mechanism set up by the Atlanteans, and there may be only one cave that can finally lead to the right path. Just as I was hesitating, I suddenly saw a black arrow drawn on the ground at the entrance of the third cave from the left.
Upon closer inspection, it was painted on the ground with a black signal pen, and at the end of the arrow, there was also a symbol of the Dark Church, a small black scythe. This is a signal that latecomers should enter through this cave.
It wasn't until later that I learned that the Dark Church had paid a terrible price for drawing this arrow. The nine caves on the stone wall are full of traps and dangers except for this one that can lead to the Great Western Continent, and the Dark Church initially sent nine squads into different caves to investigate, but as a result, three squads never returned, and the other squads were attacked by various traps and strange creatures in the process of entering the cave and fled in embarrassment.
