Chapter 200 Humming in the Waves
"Are you awake?"
Qin Chuan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Ke Lin, who had been sleeping soundly, finally woke up.
When they first discovered the abnormality, they began to quietly wake people up. Everyone woke up, except Ke Lin, who was sleeping so soundly that he didn't respond until almost a minute after they called him...
"What happened? This smell..."
Colin was a little confused. He quickly recalled the memories of "seven days ago", and then remembered that during this mission, he encountered some monsters that might have come from the bottom of the sea.
This smell seems to be related to those monsters, and judging by the smell, it should be very close to here.
At the same time, he felt a little pain in his shoulder. He pulled open his sleeves and took a look. There were two dark red marks, as if he had been pinched by something.
"Sorry, I may have pinched you a little too hard just now." Xia Liufang said apologetically on the side.
"fine."
Colin pursed his lips. Only then did he roughly dispel the inexplicable sense of alienation that it had been seven days in the other world, but only three hours here. He understood what the "Snow Girl" was talking about.
Maybe there is some disgusting monster nearby.
At the same time, Qin Chuan also explained in a low voice: "We encountered those monsters that may have come from the sea before. Now they are passing outside. Keep your voice down. They haven't discovered us yet..."
What the hell is this thing... Colin didn't bother to check the reward. Instead, he glanced outside while he was talking and saw a large group of strange creatures that looked like humans but were not human and were walking upright in the dark world downstairs. These strange creatures were walking in the darkness with torches in their hands.
Colin narrowed his eyes slightly, and some extremely subtle changes occurred in his pupils. With a clearer vision, he saw that these monsters had a high scaly ridge on their backs, their skin was covered with dark blue, almost black, and slightly reflective scales, and there was a thin film like puff between their hands, which made them look like frogs.
Their heads were so huge that they looked more like fish than human beings...
"The life force of these two people is not weak..."
Colin looked at the bulging muscles under the scales. He could feel the potential power under the muscles, and there seemed to be some indescribable special mysterious power above the scales.
He looked more carefully and it seemed as if he heard the sound of waves in his ears. Breathing became a little difficult, as if his lungs were filled with water in an instant and he was being dragged into the deep sea.
However, after shifting his gaze and secretly invoking the violent nature of "beastiality", the strange and uncomfortable feeling that existed instantly disappeared, as if it was directly swallowed up by something.
At this time, the estimated fifty or so deep-sea monsters did not seem to notice the people secretly spying on the eighth floor, and they were still walking in the dark and destroyed city. Among them, they had captured one or two hundred people by locking their necks with iron chains...
If Colin was not mistaken, these should all be women, ranging in age from teenagers to forties or fifties.
Downstairs, I could faintly hear the women crying...
"What are these monsters doing..." Qin Chuan couldn't help but ask Wang Hu next to him.
Although he sympathized with the current plight of those innocent survivors, it was obvious, after secretly comparing the strength of both sides, that they had no ability to attempt a rescue.
"I'm not sure..."
Wang Hu lowered his voice and said, "When we exchanged intelligence, we heard that these monsters coming out of the sea seemed to come ashore to capture women. Generally speaking, there are three guesses. One is that they are captured to reproduce, because no female monsters have been observed, or even if there are, they cannot be identified. The second is that they are captured as blood food and are simply eaten. The third guess is that it is for some special ritual...
"But I don't know what they are used for, because before this, these deep-sea creatures usually only appeared in coastal towns further south, and would not appear here..."
As he was speaking, there was a sudden commotion among the monsters downstairs, and they began to make strange roars.
Everyone in the house was stunned, and then Wang Hu's face changed. He noticed that the group of monsters began to rush towards a house, as if there was something there.
"They are our people!" Wang Hu screamed.
"What? Didn't you say it would take a day?" Qin Chuan frowned. Only more than three hours had passed, which was much less than what the other party had said.
"I..." Wang Hu opened his mouth, seeming not to know how to explain.
But before he could speak, Qin Chuan said with an unhappy look on his face: "Forget it, I hope you can tell me the truth next time. I'm telling you once again that I have no interest in your settlement."
At this time, even if the other party does not explain, everyone understands why they say that, which is nothing more than leaving something to be desired so that people can't guess the location.
If it were normal, it would be fine, but now because of this, things are a bit troublesome.
"Who is the person from the shelter you know..." An extraordinary person spoke directly. These monsters are much stronger than those black-skinned monsters. It is completely unrealistic to want to save everyone.
"The girl with white hair..."
"girl?"
"Um……"
After he gave the answer, everyone did not delay any longer. Qin Chuan, two extraordinary people, five armed men, and two survivors except Wang Hu went together to try to rescue them. After the rescue, they would retreat to Shelter No. 24.
Then, Xia Liufang, another official Beyonder who was a "fate predictor", and two armed men were left hiding upstairs to protect Ke Lin and the burned man, and Wang Hu, three weak, pitiful and helpless ordinary people...
"Is this plan really feasible?" Qin Chuan couldn't help but question.
If those monsters really find this place, to put it bluntly, the on-site combatants will have to remove a "fortune teller" because they have no combat power before level 5. Compared with Colin and the others, they are not disabled.
"You may not trust me, but you must trust my hunch."
The official Beyonder who was predicting fate said, "I have predicted that our side is the safest. Even if there is an accident, there will not be any casualties. Although I don't know why this is the case, I think you should be more careful than us."
As he said that, he glanced at Qin Chuan's forehead and said, "Your forehead is shiny black now, did you know that?"
" Say something more auspicious." Qin Chuan spat, then rushed downstairs with a few people.
After they left, a large number of people suddenly disappeared from the room. The Level 2 official Beyonder who was “predicting fate” sat casually on the ground. Seeing that Colin, who was suffering from ALS, had a serious expression on his face, he comforted him:
"Don't worry, if I say we are fine, then we are definitely fine. Trust me, it's definitely true..."
Brother, don't set a flag. If we just trust you, everyone present will die a few times. I'm afraid they will drink Meng Po soup until they are full...
Colin grumbled in his heart, pursed his lips, and did not comment on what the other party said.
Contrary to this guy's intuition, he felt distinctly uneasy at this moment and could clearly smell the "fishy smell" getting stronger.
I wonder if the reason for the worsening of the situation is because the number of inhuman monsters downstairs has increased...
"La la la la, la la la, hum hum hum, la la la~"
Suddenly, a ballad sung softly with a nasal voice came into my ears. The gentle voice was like a mother's lullaby, full of soothing and tempting power, making people want to indulge in it.
Colin didn't pay attention at first, because the voice sounded familiar, it was Xia Liufang's voice. But after listening for two or three seconds, he couldn't help but look dazed for a moment, as if he heard layers of tired waves hitting him.
However, just at the moment when he was somewhat obsessed, he suddenly felt a surge of anger erupting from his heart. This anger directly swallowed up the inexplicable invading breath and made Colin sober up quickly.
