Chapter 323: Donghuan Lake has become a spirit
There was no weirdness around, but the system detected a shielding reaction and a weird energy reaction with intensity above level 5. Coupled with the black mist of weird energy that permeated the surroundings, the absence of weirdness was very weird in itself.
Shen Ge stood on the boat in the center of the lake. The strange black mist around him was slowly gathering. As the distance got closer and closer, the strange black mist gradually thickened and connected with the gloomy sky, forming a huge black ball. Dan tried to slowly devour Shen Ge.
"Gulu."
"Gulu."
At this time, Shen Ge heard a strange and unique swallowing sound. The sound was very loud, like two thunderbolts suddenly exploding.
What surprised him was that the sound did not come from the whirlpool channel at the bottom of the lake, but more like it came from the black mist in all directions.
The drum-like swallowing sound gradually became smaller, and then became a bit like a fish blowing bubbles, accompanied by the sound of the bubbles bursting.
"I didn't see the weirdness, but I could sense the weird energy and hear the weird sounds..." Shen Ge felt that something was getting more and more wrong.
There was still no change on the surface of the lake, not even a ripple, let alone the sound of bubbles bursting.
At this moment, the lake water suddenly condensed into several water tentacles, rolling towards Shen Ge at extremely fast speeds. Although Shen Ge ducked sideways, due to the limited space on the boat, he was caught up by the water tentacles.
Fortunately, Shen Ge was used to condensing invisible barriers for defense, so the water tentacles failed to wrap around his body and were blocked by an invisible barrier.
But after all, these were tentacles formed by water. The moment they touched the invisible barrier, they spread to both sides, binding Shen Ge's condensed defense.
The next second, Shen Ge felt a huge force pulling him towards the bottom of the lake, but the moment the water tentacles tied the invisible barrier, Shen Ge increased his strength by fifty times. He didn't let the water tentacles drag him into the water as he wished.
Although if there were no water tentacles, Shen Ge would probably have wrapped himself in an invisible barrier and then went down to the whirlpool channel at the bottom of the lake to investigate. But if the other party wanted to take the initiative to drag him in, the situation would be different, at least after ensuring safety. I couldn’t go into the water rashly before.
The water tentacles failed to pull Shen Ge down, but it seemed as if he was about to be pulled out of the lake. But the strange thing was that Shen Ge's pull did not see him being pulled out of the water in some strange way. Instead, the lake surface rose up. This feeling It's like a "slime" in the wizarding world.
"Wait a minute, isn't this lake turned into a spirit?" Shen Ge felt more and more that this lake was a huge weird thing. The weird giant mouth that could lead to the "future" seen on Union Sakura Island, this The feeling of "familiarity" becomes more and more obvious.
Shen Ge, who had increased his strength, successfully suppressed the strange power. The next second, there was a loud "crash" and a "water wave" was pulled out from the bottom of the lake by Shen Ge.
The huge sloping waves caused the boat to slide down. Seeing this, Shen Ge formed an invisible barrier in the air and escaped from the boat. Just as he expected, the entire "lake" turned into a huge and strange water shape. The whole thing looked like a A transparent octopus.
I saw the water octopus condensed by the lake water controlling dozens of water tentacles under its body to attack Shen Ge at the same time. Shen Ge raised the mystery-killing revolver and fired a series of "bang bang bang", and the magic bullets hit the water tentacles. The top of the ball exploded with a bang.
"Gulu—"
After the water octopus's dozen water tentacles were interrupted, it opened a huge mouth on its body and let out a deafening sonic attack.
But it is a pity that Shen Ge is immune to sonic attacks. As soon as the water octopus opened its mouth and launched a sonic attack, his silent treacherous domain dissolved the sound waves without causing even a splash.
It was obvious that the strange creature was unconscious. After the sonic attack was defused, it was still roaring with its mouth open. Shen Ge took the opportunity to pull the trigger and shoot several strange energy bullets into its mouth.
The penetrating nature of the destructive revolver allowed the devious energy bullet to pass through the mouth of the water octopus, and several more water splashes exploded on its back.
Then, Shen Ge closed the silent realm, directly expanded the invisible realm, and used "Heart Digging" to lock the opponent's heart.
Since the body of the water octopus is very turbid, it is impossible to see clearly what's going on inside it. Shen Ge doesn't know if it has a "heart", but so far he has never encountered a weird one without a heart. He can only spend some time and his special skills. to lock.
But the water octopus obviously didn't intend to let Shen Ge get his wish. When the "Heart-Taking" trick energy covered it, as soon as the big mouth closed, the entire water polo body formed a hard trick energy like a copper wall to harden the water surface, making Shen Ge's " For the first time, "Heart-Taking" was unable to penetrate the target's body.
"Tsk, that's interesting." Shen Ge increased the release of his trick energy, trying to break through the water octopus's defense, but the opponent's trick power was about the same as his own.
"Hardening, right? Okay!" Shen Ge clenched his fist and punched the copper wall and water wall in front of him with the help of the increase in strength that had dropped to more than 30 times but had not disappeared.
Wow—
The collision between Shen Ge's mysterious energy and the water octopus's water wall defense produced a strong distortion of the mysterious energy. The distorted magical energy once again caused the originally calm lake surface to roll up huge waves like a tsunami, forming waterspouts towards the surroundings. It was swept away, torn apart by the twisted space, and turned into a downpour!
Shen Ge's magic energy was falling down, and most of it was consumed. However, in the end, it was this water octopus of the same level as him that ran out of magic energy first.
Wow!
However, as the water octopus's magic power was exhausted, Shen Ge, who was about to pursue the victory, lost his target, because the water octopus "fallen apart" completely, and the water waves filled the lake again.
Shen Ge looked at the lake at his feet and used his magic power to detect it again, only to find that the lake had returned to the state before the water octopus appeared.
"Good guy, if you can't beat it, just go back, right?" Facing the lake that was gradually returning to calm, Shen Ge didn't know what to do with the lake water for a moment. He couldn't go find a few water pumps to drain it, right?
Shen Ge waited on the lake for nearly half an hour. After the water octopus disappeared, the sea became calm. No trace of the strangeness was seen, but the intensity of the strange energy could be detected, and it was affected by a shielding effect similar to "not coming out". In other words, the system's detection There was no change in the scan, as if the water octopus had never appeared.
Now there is only one choice left in front of Shen Ge, which is to enter the whirlpool channel at the bottom of the lake to find out. This was originally his original plan, but after being disturbed by the sudden appearance of the water octopus, he was a little confused for a while. What is the plan of the weird or weird person hiding in the dark?
Maybe it was to prevent him from entering, but the water octopus that appeared dragged him towards the whirlpool channel again, maybe because it wanted him to go in, but the mysterious black mist kept hindering his progress.
What does this mean?
Play hard to get?
Have you spent so much time playing weird?
But in line with the custom of "come and come", we all arrived at the entrance of this whirlpool channel. If we don't go in and take a look, it's like traveling to West Lake. We know that West Lake vinegar fish is a trap, but we must order one to be satisfied. Thinking of this, Shen Ge no longer hesitated, and went out of the treacherous realm. When encountering the obstruction of the treacherous black mist on the lake, he increased the release of the treacherous energy, and forcibly condensed the invisible barrier to open a path to the whirlpool channel.
After Shen Ge jumped into the whirlpool passage, he found that it looked very much like the high-level weird throat leading to the tail that he would go to every once in a while. Combined with the water octopus...
It seems reasonable to think of this area as a huge weird fusion, with the water octopus as the head, the vortex channel as the throat, and the weird body further down.
After passing through the long and narrow whirlpool, I fell into a dark place. Stepping on it felt soft, like stepping on strange internal organs.
As a frequent visitor to Weird Belly, Shen Ge was naturally very familiar with this feeling, so he took out the Weird Flashlight and turned it on, shining it around.
Downward is an "abyss" that cannot be seen at the bottom. Blood-red corrosive liquid is constantly leaching out from the "flesh wall" around the passage. After Shen Ge's defensive invisible barrier touches it, he immediately "sizzles". There are white corrosive bubbles coming out.
At this time, Shen Ge noticed that in addition to the red liquid leaching out from the gaps in the flesh wall, there were also many thumb-sized white things. When he took a closer look, they were all white flesh worms.
Shen Ge had seen this meat worm in the body of a high-level fusion monster before, so it was certain that the "mutation" in Donghuan Lake was related to the fusion monster.
"System, scan the surrounding area." Shen Ge said.
[Consume 100 system points and now start marking targets containing sly energy within 10 kilometers—]
[Mark successfully. 】
This time, the system did not indicate that it was affected by a shield similar to "not coming out". Obviously, the world inside this vortex channel was different from the outside.
Looking at it this way, assuming that the previous guess is correct, the water octopus is the head of the strange fusion, the vortex channel is the throat, and the bottom is the body... The thing that hinders Shen Ge and the system from detecting and scanning is this strange "fusion" outer skin.
"Is it the ground? Or what?" Shen Ge had a bad feeling in his heart. This situation was very similar to the situation where the weirdo organization cultivated the King of Creatures in Sakura and Bang Kingdom.
Less than half a month after arriving in Dajing, my home was stolen by a weirdo organization?
But if you think about it carefully, it's unlikely. After all, not to mention how much manpower and material resources it takes to cultivate a King of Secrets, the training time alone is destined to be impossible without the Special Strategy Department being aware of it.
You must know that the current Rong City branch is not two years ago. Even ordinary strange events can be prevented in advance. There is no reason to cultivate such a big thing as the King of Devils without even the slightest clue, unless this King of Devils is a special policy of Rong City. The Ministry secretly cultivated it.
But this possibility is lower in Shen Ge's opinion than when he did not find the existence of the Gui King when he investigated Donghuan Lake. After all, the previous Donghuan Lake incident was not "closed", but the area was just sealed off for the Quanlongshan Base. The investigation continued, but Shen Ge was stymied by a series of things and had no chance to continue the investigation.
The most important thing to know is that the headquarters of the Weird Association, Rongshan Mental Hospital, is right next to Donghuan Lake. Combined with the experience of exploring Rongshan Mental Hospital several times in the dream world, a long-hidden mystery suddenly popped up in this place. Wang...it doesn't seem to be a big deal?
Since he had to check everything anyway, Shen Ge simply stopped thinking about it and continued walking towards the depths of the "abyss", trying first to see if he could find the "bottom".
However, Shen Ge walked for almost two hours, but still had no tendency to reach the bottom. The biggest difference along the way was that more and more blood was leaching out from the flesh wall, and the white worms crawling in the flesh wall were getting bigger and bigger. From the size of a finger at the beginning, to the size of a palm now, it is like a white brick embedded in the flesh wall.
Just as Shen Ge continued to walk forward, suddenly apart from the surrounding flesh walls, even the "ground" began to slowly squirm.
"Gulu—"
"Gulu—"
With a deafening sound of swallowing, the entire passage came to life. The flesh walls and the ground all began to squirm visible to the naked eye, "leading" Shen Ge toward the abyss.
"Did you finally notice my existence?" The main reason why Shen Ge didn't use the three-character concealment method to enter from the beginning was because he wanted to use himself as a bait to verify whether Donghuan Lake had really become a high-level fusion monster. , which is equivalent to the fact that there really is a King of Tricks below Rong City.
It's just that after walking for so long, there was no movement or reaction from the other party, but I didn't expect that the other party would wake up suddenly, and there was a rhythm that wanted to take him into the stomach.
"Okay, this conveyor belt is open, it saves you walking." Shen Ge simply gave up resistance and allowed the flesh wall to move forward with the invisible barrier.
Then, the speed became faster and faster, and Shen Ge had the illusion that a roller coaster started to reach the top, and then suddenly dived from the top.
After sprinting at top speed for two or three minutes, suddenly—
"puff-"
Shen Ge felt like he had fallen into a slimy pool. Fortunately, there was an invisible barrier blocking him from being swallowed up by these corrosive and disgusting goo. However, he had to continuously inject treacherous energy to strengthen the invisible barrier. As for the magic power, it bottomed out instantly.
Shen Ge had no choice but to take out a mental apple and eat it in this disgusting environment, to replenish his magic power and prevent the sticky substance from penetrating the invisible barrier and swallowing him.
While Shen Ge was still thinking about how to get out of trouble, the floodgates below seemed to open, and he and the pool full of goo poured out instantly.
“…”
This is too much!
Shen Ge originally thought that he was pushed out by the fusion monster in some indescribable way, but the next second he found that he was falling rapidly from the sky.
Even if this is weird, it is still a collapse of heaven!
Below, there are ruins, collapsed buildings, and a doomsday desolation. Not to mention humans and life forms, not even a weird one can be seen.
Boom!
With a loud noise, Shen Ge was smashed into the ruins. Fortunately, in order to avoid this happening this time, he asked Fang Mingyue to borrow a magic arm guard that could release an inflatable cushion with magic energy.
Shen Ge found a lot of inconvenience during his previous trip to the dream world due to the lack of red mist armor, so before entering the dream world to transfer Cheng Shengnan back from Dajing, he deliberately "borrowed" a few tricks from Fang Mingyue and other counter-attack agents. equipment.
These sneaky equipment do not affect their combat effectiveness. They are basically functional equipment such as "sneaky arm inflatable cushions".
Unexpectedly, it was not used during the transportation process, but it was used here. (End of chapter)
