Chapter 638 The star returns to its original position, riots in the nine realms (8)
Time passes minute by minute.
The oxygen level on the watch was decreasing, which meant they were running out of time.
The sudden appearance of purple light at the bottom of this weird lake directly deepened the weird atmosphere here. If it weren't for the mission that required exploration, I'm afraid no one would be willing to stay here anymore.
In the dark and deep bottom of the lake, panic spread uncontrollably in my heart.
Fortunately, it was an elite team that had received rigorous training. Although they were full of panic and uneasiness, they still followed Barton unswervingly.
After Barton thought for a moment, he opened his palm and turned it over a few times, and then pointed forward, indicating that something was wrong there. Everyone should be alert and go over to see what happened.
The rest of the team members picked up their weapons and nodded to show that they were fully prepared.
Barton paddled his flippers and swam ahead, exploring the location of the purple light source. He clenched the tactical dagger in his hand and spread his spiritual energy around his body, forming a solid layer of defense and focusing all his attention.
Less than a moment later, they arrived near a source of flickering light.
At this time, we were about fifty or sixty meters away from the water. Without a diving suit, people felt very uncomfortable, and there was not much oxygen left. If there was no harvest from this exploration, it meant that there would be no third chance.
When setting off, I took into account the weight-bearing reasons, so I didn’t carry many oxygen tanks. Two times was already the limit.
"The currents are increasing nearby..."
Barton felt that his body was a little out of control and realized that there might be a water outlet nearby.
Feeling the direction of the water flow, he turned around and swam in the other direction. At the same time, a faint voice sounded inexplicably in his mind, as if someone was calling him. The invisible force drove his body and involuntarily accelerated his swimming speed. .
The team members behind realized that something was wrong, and Barton was getting faster and faster.
He was like a swordfish in the sea, naturally stretching his body and swimming quickly in the water. The water around him seemed to have consciousness. When he encountered Barton, he separated to both sides and turned into power to push him to accelerate.
The diving equipment does not have a helmet, so normal communication is impossible and can only rely on sign language to communicate.
But the problem is that Barton is swimming too fast now, and he doesn't look back at the sign language they are playing. The remaining team members know that something is wrong now, so they can only grit their teeth and follow them.
Hula la...
The water began to flow backwards like a receding tide, and the rising turbidity picked up the sediment at the bottom of the lake.
Everyone was uncontrollably swept away by this backward flow of water, as if they were stuffed into a drum washing machine. They were spinning crazily and being forced to accelerate, heading towards the dark and dark waters.
Soon, everyone saw a scene that shocked them.
Following the rays of the high-intensity tactical searchlight, a huge circular black pit with a diameter of about ten meters appeared in front of all members of the exploration team.
However, what frightened them even more was that Captain Patton actually swam directly in.
Upon seeing this, the seven anxious members of the tactical team quickly swam towards the black pit with their flippers. They did not dare to get too close to this thing, so they just used searchlights from the side to check the situation.
This huge black pit is not a ‘pit’, to be precise, it should be a ‘well’!
Many complicated and strange patterns can be seen on the well wall, and there is no trace of artificial digging at all. It is like a natural creation. Even with a high-intensity tactical searchlight, it is impossible to see how deep the well is.
There is no visible light in the well, and the darkness is far deeper than this body of water.
Just looking in from the edge of the well, the whole person feels as if he is about to be swallowed up. Both body and spirit are under great pressure, which inexplicably makes everyone feel uneasy and trembling.
But the problem is that Captain Patton dives down, and they must follow him to take a look.
The member of the temporary team leader thought for a few seconds, made a gesture to let the three people stand by here, and then he took the three people to dive down.
Dive, dive, keep diving...
The team of four groped the walls of the shaft and dived down for about a minute or two.
The water pressure at this depth is extremely uncomfortable. Even elite-trained agents are close to the limit of the human body. And the most important problem is that they have not found Barton until now.
The light emitted by the searchlight was very limited in the vertically downward well, and their vision and hearing were greatly compressed. They could even hear their own heartbeats. In order to avoid being overly nervous and consuming oxygen levels, they began to shift their attention.
Suddenly, a strange purple light appeared in the darkness at the bottom of the well again.
Through the brief purple light, they saw Barton not far ahead, and there was a place similar to an exit there.
Everyone was refreshed and immediately swam forward with Barton.
After a while, they came to the source of the purple light. After swimming forward, they surfaced directly from the water.
At this moment, it felt extremely weird.
They were still at the bottom of the lake a few minutes ago, diving into a bottomless well. It was obviously a vertical downward passage, but they suddenly surfaced, as if the world had been turned upside down in these few minutes.
As they looked above their heads, their whole bodies were shocked again.
The lake seemed to be blocked by some invisible force, forming an approximately semicircular dome above it. You could even see fluttering water plants and ferns, as if they were inside a hollowed-out egg shell.
And then, they saw a scene they would never forget.
There was at least one as big as a cow, with turbid yellow pupils filled with pus, peering at them through the semicircular dome water curtain.
For a moment, everyone's minds went blank, and cold hairs stood on their bodies.
This dark and pitch-black lake bottom is already a source of great mental stress. Now I see this terrifying giant peeping through the water curtain. The blood in my body almost seems to be frozen, and unspeakable fear seeps from every pore. out.
The giant creature peeping at them swam slowly in the water, revealing all its terrifying and horrifying postures.
It has a huge slug-like shape, its back is covered with countless sharp spikes, and on the rounder end of the oval, there are soft and wide lips with three unknown tentacles connected to three yellow eyeballs. .
The eyeballs they saw were just the tip of the iceberg of this monster!
When the giant thing in the lake reveals its complete posture, its chaotic biological appearance and invisible spiritual impact are a devastating blow to all living things in the world, and will almost instantly exceed the endurance limit of human reason.
Even agents who have endured inhuman training feel their brains are congested and their nerves are in severe pain at this moment.
Everyone had to retract their gaze, not daring to peep at the terrifying giant in the lake, and tried hard to block the image engraved in their minds, because only in this way could they feel better.
After calming down, everyone's faces were already covered in blood.
Barton regained consciousness from the severe pain, and his face showed a horrified look. Is this the 'god' who came to the earth from the sky as described in the mythology?
But no matter which angle you look at...
This giant thing in the lake is nothing like a 'god', it's more like some kind of twisted and disgusting monster!
