Chapter 639 The star returns to its original position, riots in the nine realms (9)
The giant thing in the lake...is real!
The ‘god’ from the outer world in mythology turns out to be a slug covered with spikes!
Forgive Barton for using such a crude adjective, but the appearance of this monster is really too similar to a slug. Apart from the huge difference in size and the countless similar metal spikes covering its back, there is almost no difference between the two.
But even so, he knew it very well.
The giant thing in the lake is definitely not an ordinary creature, but a monster beyond the scope of human understanding!
The captain-level Shinigami he had seen before all had spiritual pressure as terrifying as the Pompeii volcano, and the power burst out from every move was enough to completely collapse and destroy an entire modern city, but these were all under Within the scope of human understanding, even shock is acceptable.
And the giant thing in the lake in front of us is an existence that cannot be understood and accepted by humans!
You can't feel the slightest bit of spiritual power emanating from it. It is like an inorganic substance and there is no such thing as a soul. Just seeing its appearance makes human reason almost collapse.
Everyone fears and fears different things, such as spiders, snakes, dogs, etc...
But its existence makes everyone feel fear, as if it is the embodiment of all the causes of fear.
That feeling cannot be described in simple words. It is like a certain instinct engraved deep in the soul. It is activated with its appearance. All fears are amplified countless times and act on the human brain. and in the nervous system.
The cave fell into a long period of silence. No one dared to break the atmosphere. They were all immersed in the fear just now.
But just because they don't move doesn't mean the giant thing in the lake doesn't move.
The terrifying creature was seen turning its body in the water, and the metal-like spikes on its back began to grow, piercing through the water curtain of the dome like willow branches, and quickly stretched towards all of them.
"Watch out for these ghosts!"
Barton's spiritual power burst out from the soles of his feet, and he stepped sideways on the water while shouting to alert others.
But unfortunately, not everyone's reaction can be as fast as his. Two team members had no time to dodge, and the metal spikes were directly inserted into their heads. Their eyes turned up to reveal the terrifying whites, and they stood upright without any struggle. Body.
These spikes seemed like hollow needles, injecting some kind of liquid into the two team members.
Immediately afterwards, the two team members who had been injected with liquid had their mouths expanded to the limit and their eyes widened. They stared at them with blank eyes. Their bodies gradually began to turn gray-green, and the skin surface hardened into the shape of fish scales, and the skull bones were pulled. It was long and twisted, and a thick tail full of spikes began to grow from the last section of its spine.
The process of transforming from a human to a lizard-man only takes about ten seconds.
But the shock and terror this scene brought to others far exceeded simple descriptions in words.
"Run! Go back!"
Barton's scalp was numb, and he instantly realized that this might be a trap.
They didn't encounter a lizard man along the way, but they found the lake inexplicably. Moreover, he was lured by the sound and dived into the space at the bottom of the well. Instead of encountering any obstacles, the whole process went smoothly. It's almost against the norm.
But after seeing the team members who turned into lizardmen, he suddenly understood all this!
There is one thing mentioned in the myth. The ancient creatures living in the lake will give believers the blessing of immortality through the method of sacrifice in a certain position. Now it seems that this is the 'sacrifice ceremony' mentioned in the myth. .
This underwater space may be a sacrificial place, and the lizard people deliberately lured them in!
Those monsters want to use this method to let this terrifying giant in the lake turn all of them into 'the same kind'!
"No...no, Captain!"
The last remaining team member looked at his watch and shouted in despair: "My oxygen level is no longer enough. It is impossible to swim back from the bottom of the lake dozens of meters deep!"
Oxygen content? !
Barton looked down at the value on his watch and found that only 15% of the oxygen was left.
From the time they dived into the lake to the bottom of the well, no one knew how long it took them to dive. Although the process seemed very long, it actually didn't take much time, and they were paying attention to their watches the whole time. There was no way they only had 15% of the time left to dive. Discover it!
"Captain, please leave quickly!"
Seeing that there was no way to survive, the team member suddenly gritted his teeth and said with a sharp look in his eyes: "I can't get out anyway. You should still be able to get out. I'll cut off your back to stop this monster!"
"Hoho-!"
The two team members have completed their transformation and completely turned into lizard men.
I saw them walking on flat ground in the water, swimming very fast with their flippers on the water, and rushed towards the two of them.
"Haril, kill them!"
Barton's eyes were blood red and violent, his face was as ferocious as a demon, and he clenched his five fingers suddenly.
Such a simple action of grabbing and holding caused the entire underwater space to rise violently, passing by like an extremely sharp blade, instantly chopping up the two transformed lizardmen, and a mixture of blood and fragments fell into the water.
As if sensing that the two were planning to escape, the giant creature in the lake fired thousands of spikes.
The space seemed to be pierced, and it roared like thunder, leaving dents wherever it passed.
"I must take you out today!"
Barton didn't give him a chance to argue, and quickly came over to catch the team member.
Buzz buzz—!
The howling wind propped up a transparent barrier, enveloping the two of them like a transparent sphere.
The inside of the sphere was filled with turbid air, and the howling wind was extremely destructive. It blocked all the water that tried to invade, and then led the two people to sink into the lake at a very fast speed.
Qianbai and the spikes fell into the air and were slowly retracted.
The three yellow pupils of the giant creature in the lake watched them dive indifferently, and soon revealed a hint of sarcasm.
Dark...cold...
Their diving speed is extremely fast, even that of swordfish is inferior.
However, the problem is that at this diving speed, they can swim a few hundred meters in just ten seconds. However, they swam for four or five minutes, but they still had not seen the wellhead where they came from, and there was still an endless stretch of land in front of them. of darkness.
"This is impossible!"
Barton's eyes widened, and an unknown fear spread in his heart.
He clearly remembered that when he came, the depth of the well bottom was only about one or two hundred meters, but now they have far exceeded this number, but they still did not see the location of the well head.
"Captain...Captain, those spikes are coming!" The team members pointed at the back and yelled in fear.
When Barton looked back, his scalp almost exploded.
Thousands of densely packed spikes were seen chasing after them from the water at a faster speed, and at the source of these spikes, there was a huge shadow, moving slowly behind them.
The giant thing in the lake...is actually chasing me!
Barton had no time to think about how the monster was chasing after him, so he could only rush forward desperately. He didn't want to have the spike inserted into his brain, and then inject liquid to turn into those lizard men.
One minute...three minutes...five minutes...
The space inside the sphere is getting thinner and thinner, but the exit from the front is still invisible.
The unknown fear spread crazily in their hearts, devouring their remaining sanity and thinking, and the spikes were getting closer and closer, only a few meters away from them. The sense of oppression and fear reached its peak at this moment.
But at this moment, Barton suddenly felt a sense of disobedience.
Something's wrong...something's not quite right...
His career as a long-term agent made him realize that the whole thing seemed a bit inconsistent.
At this time, there was a voice in his mind, which sounded intermittently, as if someone was calling him.
"wake up......"
"wake up......"
"Wake up quickly...Barton..."
"I'm... Haril... come on... wake up..."
"It's too late... hurry up... wake up!"
"Ahhhh!!!"
Barton felt a sharp pain in his brain, and he roared and suddenly opened his eyes.
The darkness and the bottom of the lake disappeared, replaced by several huge stone sculptures with human faces, arranged in a strange order in a circular formation. All of them were tied to the stone pillar in the middle, including Natasha and her team members. .
Everything just now... was it all a dream? !
