Angry waves

Chapter 4 [Revised 2.0]

It was a dark space, eerily silent.

I can hear my heartbeat, which is smooth and powerful, but I can't feel my body, as if my consciousness has separated from the body and floated up and down in a void.

"tick"

It was the sound of water.

"tick"

The sound came suddenly, and it was difficult to tell the direction.

A faint light suddenly lit up in front of him, and the body's consciousness returned.I can feel that this is a narrow tunnel with a very low top, and I have to bend forward to barely move forward, as if walking through a pipe, even the air is so stuffy.

Although there was that ray of light in the distance, the target was obvious, but the darkness around him was still so thick.The road under my feet was full of potholes, and because I couldn't see clearly, I would be tripped from time to time, so I could only grope forward at a very slow speed.

Suddenly, something lighted up nearby, it was ice green lines.

I moved my fingers to touch them, but found that wherever my hand moved, they followed.It wasn't until my left hand accidentally touched those fluorescent stripes that I realized——

This is my other hand.

Something fell off the wall in front of him and became smooth.

Then, I saw a pair of eyes in the wall, a pair of yellow and orange pupils, which belonged to a beast.I was startled and stepped back, but those eyes seemed to be getting closer to me, and turned into dangerous vertical pupils.

monster!

I opened my mouth to shout, but no sound came out.

When did the air in the tunnel become so thin! ?It's so uncomfortable... I turned around and ran quickly, in order to seek oxygen, and at the same time, I wanted to get rid of the monster following me as soon as possible, but found that every time I turned around, it appeared on my back, not far away Not near, with the mockery of the beast playing with its prey.

After running for an unknown amount of time, I gasped for breath, and suddenly felt a pain in my back, was it scratched by a monster?

I didn't dare to stop, I just felt more and more pain in my back, and the sweat on my body was like soaking in a pond.The distance from that ray of light is getting closer and closer, but I can always hear the heavy panting of the monster behind me, and I can even smell the salty seawater smell on its body.

Finally, I ran into that ray of light, and the monster was isolated in a narrow passage, glaring at me viciously.

Radiating light is a swirl-shaped imprint, faintly familiar.

I stretched out my left hand to touch the imprint, a coolness spread along the place where the fingertips touched, and a slight tingling gradually appeared in the palm of my hand.I wanted to withdraw my hand, but it seemed to be attracted by the imprint, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't pull it out.

The pain intensified, and the sweat on his body cooled down, making the chill more obvious, and the whole body seemed to have fallen into an ice hole.

A piercing pain came from my left hand, and I opened my eyes suddenly, and my mind became clear instantly.

I clutched my left wrist and curled up on the ground, the pain was so painful that cold sweat fell down, I could only clenched my teeth and stood there, unable to think about anything, where I am now, and what happened.

The pain lasted for a long time, so long that I felt that my entire left arm was numb.

A drop of water slapped on the ground in front of me, splashing the coldness all over my face, and the focus was regained in front of my eyes.

I was a little exhausted, so I could barely prop myself up and lie on my face.

This place seems to be a natural cave, very humid, and the salty smell of seawater is particularly strong, and the naturally formed stalagmites on the top of the cave are dripping water.Coupled with what happened before, it's no wonder I have that kind of dream.

Before thinking about it, my face immediately became ugly.Under such circumstances, it is as incredible as being told on the street that I have obtained the right of residence in District A that an ordinary person like me was lucky enough to survive.

Once I was able to move, I climbed up, and even just this movement made me feel dizzy, and I finally had to hold on to the rock wall to maintain my standing position.

The light here is very poor, and the only luminous objects are some fluorescent moss in the corner of the wall. Although the walls on both sides are uneven, they are smooth, which may be the reason why they are often washed by water.

I dug a piece of fluorescent moss from the ground, and checked my left hand with this light. The tingling pain just now came from the palm of my hand, but I found nothing when I checked at this time.The left hand is intact, even, it seems too good?

I remember that there used to be a protruding old scar on the index finger of my left hand, which should be obvious, but now it is as smooth as ever.Maybe the brightness of the fluorescent moss is too dim, so I can't see clearly?Forget it, it doesn't matter, it's good to be gone.

Shaking my hands, I touched my back again.

In fact, compared to the hand, I was more worried about the pain behind the back, because I couldn't see the length of the wound behind me, so I could only estimate it by hand.

At that time, the gang on the submarine was ruthless enough, so the knife was definitely serious.Fortunately, no nerves were cut, otherwise I might be useless now.

Originally, the whole team was going very smoothly. They didn't encounter any mermaids along the way, and there were people with supernatural powers with them. Most people still felt safe in their hearts—except for the team in white tight-fitting protective clothing.

Those people armed themselves from head to tail, not even a single hair was leaked, which was even more disturbing than the tough style of the security guards.In other words, 'ruthless' might be a better word to describe.Because these people have been separated from us since we got on the submarine, and the sight from there is like looking at corpses.

Especially when they reached that sea area, they suddenly pulled out the gleaming knives collectively. Once the transparent isolation door was opened, it was like opening the gate of hell.Those knives were only the size of fingers, but they were made of unknown materials, but they were extremely sharp. They could easily be inserted|inserted into iron blocks, not to mention used to cut soft human bodies.

Almost everyone lost their mobility as soon as they were stabbed, and those people seemed to have an unusual understanding of human body structure.

I don't know what kind of shit luck I have had to survive until now.

The mutation happened in an instant, and then the alarm sounded throughout the submarine. It seemed that this happened not only to ours, but to almost every one of them.

I don't know where those people came from, I only know that the blue swirl logo on their clothes is very dazzling under the cover of the flashing red warning light.

By the way, it is like withdrawing from the glowing imprint in my dream.

Groping forward along the fluorescent moss, I think this should be some kind of natural sea cave. Although the air is not fresh, it can still breathe.

Turning a corner, the front suddenly opened up, and the light suddenly brightened a lot, but it was only better than the fluorescent moss.I looked at the light source, but was suddenly stunned.

It was a huge cylinder, filled with water-blue liquid, and some crystal-clear air bubbles flew up from the bottom of the cylinder quickly, playing in the man's jet-black hair, and finally flew into the sky reluctantly.

I took two slow steps forward, and then took a big step back.

I couldn't help but smile wryly. Is this just getting out of the sea of ​​suffering and immediately entering the tiger's den?

There is a mermaid floating in the center of the cylinder. According to the visual estimation, the body length should be two meters. The fins at the end are like soft petals, swaying with the current, slender and beautiful.The black fishtail connected to the caudal fin has perfect lines, long and powerful, the bare|naked chest is gradually covered with fine scales from the crotch, and the pearly skin of the upper body is luminous under the clear water.That long black hair fluttered in the water, as flexible as water plants.

Is it so beautiful that the mermaid stays quietly in the water with eyes closed?It's no wonder that in those years, some people regarded mermaids as treasures. It's just a pity that in this era, mermaids are synonymous with nightmares for us.

No matter how beautiful creatures they are, they can only exist like poison|drugs.

Come--

what sound! ?

I was startled and jumped up all of a sudden, even the fluorescent algae in my hand were thrown out by me.

Ah--

He trembled again, this time he was a little calmer than before, but the voice was really close, like whispering near his ears, tickling and numb.I looked at the cultivation column suspiciously, couldn't help but backed away again, and worried that I wasn't far enough away, so I didn't stop until my back was against the heel of the wall.

"who is it?"

Come--

The sound of dripping water dripping from the top made the sound even more erratic and weird. This time the sound was farther away, maybe because I knew I was frightened by it.

Seeing that I hadn't responded all the time, and that I was advancing instead of retreating, the voice was not in a hurry, but the conch shell hanging around my neck suddenly lit up at this moment and slowly floated on my chest, pulling my neck forward slightly pour.

It's just that this direction is towards the mermaid.

I tried to pull back, but the conch was still floating firmly in place.

I hesitated for a while, and took a small step tentatively, and the conch really swam forward.I stopped and so did the conch, but there was still a pull pulling me there.

never mind!Die and die!Anyway, this conch was something I held tightly in my hand before waking up. It is unlikely to be a dangerous thing. Anyway, I did not expect to save my life so cheaply when I participated in the 'patrol' this time.

The closer the distance, the more full the light of the conch, as if there is a certain echo with the cylinder.

When I got closer, I realized that the mermaid also had a conch hanging around its neck.It was a shrunken version of the one on my neck, only the size of a thumb, but the two conch shells seemed to be carved out of the same mold.

I couldn't help putting my hands on the cylinder and moving forward to take a closer look, but at this moment, 'it' opened its eyes.
