A ruin under the sea that seemed to have been abandoned for at least three hundred years, suddenly lit up as if it had woken up. Are there still people behind the lights
Human, or ghost
In this sealed place of death, the minds of even the most determined atheists will be impacted. How many empty eyes were looking at them behind those pale lights? How many incomprehensible babble are fermenting in those strangely shaped buildings? The line between life and death blurs between the softly posed jellyfish buildings, the sprawling stone-cast towers on the cliffs and the impossibly huge coral trees. Ogubugu floated in front of these huge monsters like a mayfly with the undercurrent of the deep sea, and all the soldiers in the submarine who saw this scene couldn't help holding their breath.
The crying movement of the Requiem sounded particularly gloomy at this time, as if it were superseding the undead that were invisible to the naked eye. The deep cold seeped into the bones through the layers of bulkheads, Tang Yi shuddered, and then noticed Mercury's demeanor... It was a bit like what he looked like under the return to the ruins that day.
Lee paced to Mercury's side and looked at the scene outside in admiration, "What a magnificent city, it must have been a prosperous country."
Tang Yi saw that Lee's attention had completely shifted to Mercury, and his hands and feet had regained consciousness. He knew that the opportunity he was waiting for had come. His hand behind his back slipped into the back pocket of his trousers, and took out a low-value world coin. Few people use cash these days, but he always keeps a few banknotes in his trouser pocket. That was a habit he developed after a few years of guerrilla warfare.
He was leaning against the side of the sofa, his hands blocked by the back of the sofa, and no one could see him. He fumbled and rolled the note into a small tube, trying his best to keep a look of surprise, worry and vigilance on his face, looking in the direction of Lee and Mercury. He said that the thin paper stick stabbed backhand into the keyhole of the handcuffs. Fortunately, the rebels only use ordinary handcuffs, otherwise this method is really useless.
The paper tube touched the little bulge in the depth of the keyhole that I couldn't find if I didn't pay attention. Tang Yi used his skill to press down the lock and slowly turned the paper tube clockwise. At some point, there was a slight click on the wrist.
Tang Yi continued to put his hands behind his back and looked around calmly. Except for Lee and Quicksilver, there were two soldiers guarding the door, and the little cutie was not in sight, but he had seen the speed of that thing, and if it made a move, it would appear at any time.
The vague singing hidden in the infrasound became clearer and clearer. It was a language that Tang Yi could not understand, and he could not tell whether it was a male or a female voice. It was more like an aria sung by many people. . The voice was extremely beautiful, like a wisp of blue smoke lingering in the cedar forest under the silver moon, lingering lightly and lingering. Tang Yi remembered the shocking surprise of the first time he heard Mercury's singing, this voice could give him a similar feeling.
In this voice, the icy blue eyes of mercury gradually became covered with a layer of white mist, and the silver-white color continued to thicken. Mercury seemed to be captured by the singing, with a hollow expression, empty white eyes, his head slightly raised, his white hair dancing without wind, there was a rush of electric current flowing and colliding in the air, and the cyclone of energy lifted the hair on Tang Yi's forehead. Silk.
Tang Yi shouted suddenly, "Mercury! Have you forgotten Tang Ya!"
The sudden outburst of shouting made the thick silver in Mercury's eyes retreat a lot. That piece of ice blue is struggling to regain consciousness. Lee frowned impatiently and gestured to the soldier at the door. The soldier came to Tang Yi with a gun.
And Tang Yi was waiting for this opportunity.
The moment the soldier reached out his hand to grab him, he suddenly grabbed the wrist with a backhand, turning around and hitting the soldier's temple with his elbow. The rebel soldier didn't even have time to react before he fell dizzy and fell to the ground. Tang Yi snatched the laser gun from his hand and shot straight at the knee of the soldier on the ground. Another soldier opened fire at him amid the screams of soldiers. Tang Yi turned somersaults on the spot, rolled all the way to the sofa, and fired a shot with a wave of his hand, but it was aimed at Lee who was startled by the sudden change.
The shot hit Lee in the thigh, and the blood instantly stained his trousers. The man who had been talking and laughing freely finally stopped laughing and fell to his knees with a painful cry. Tang Yi pointed his gun at the Equality Messenger and roared, "No shooting!"
The rebel soldier clutched the butt of his gun nervously, but did not dare to shoot. Because Tang Yi's muzzle aimed at Lee's temple.
In fact, Lee didn't have a clue in his heart, far from being as determined and fierce as he seemed. Because the last time he held Lee hostage, the soldiers were going to sacrifice their Equality Messenger. This shows that certain goals must be achieved for the rebels. In the face of certain tasks, even the leader can be sacrificed.
But now he and Quicksilver are behind bars, with nowhere to run. The rebels should not give up their leaders easily.
Tang Yi can only gamble like this. Holding the gun, he approached Lee a little bit, his eyes fixed on the rebel soldiers who were gathering at the door. He stood next to Lee, peering condescendingly at one of the three rebel leaders who, not so long ago, was sipping red wine and listening to classical music at a leisurely pace. Tang Yi seriously considered whether to just shoot him down.
Lee's beautiful eyebrows wrinkled from the pain, but she laughed hard. That kind of perverted laughter spattered from his throat, causing Tang Yi to swell with anger.
"You really amaze me every time. The two planted in your hands really made me more and more fascinated by you." Lee's amber eyes, which are much lighter than the average Asians, have no evil spirit in them. The slightest decrease, he was clearly lying at the feet of Tang Yi, but he still looked at ease.
Tang Yi was so angry that he kicked his stomach fiercely, and felt that he couldn't solve his hatred, so he made up two more kicks. Lee curled up on the ground, and the weak scholar couldn't stand Tang Yi's brute force, and he couldn't even speak.
Tang Yi felt a sigh of relief, but then his heart came to his throat again. Mercury's eyes have been completely swallowed by the silvery white light, and some invisible cyclone swirled around him, the shackles that imprisoned his lower jaw and hands trembled, and even made the sound of steel cracking.
"Mercury!" Tang Yi called out the name of Mercury. The sea monster's current appearance made him a little scared. He was afraid that the silver thing would completely engulf Mercury's soul, "Mercury! Wake up!"
"It's useless." Lee's voice came from the floor weakly, still with a bit of lingering viciousness, "That was his instinct calling him. When he wakes up, neither Tang Ya nor you will be his mission. It's just an insignificant episode."
The fear in Tang Yi's heart instantly turned into a raging anger. He picked Lee up from the ground, pressed the laser gun to his throat, and said fiercely from between his teeth, "Take us out of here!!!"
"Leave?" Lee's beautiful jaw was raised high by the gun, but he still said in a teasing voice that made Tang Yi grit his teeth, "Do you think we can go now?"
Tang Yi's roar shook Lee's ears and thought, "Why don't you give orders! Believe it or not, I shot your pretty head!"
However, at this time, screams came from the distance of the submarine.
It was the screams of the rebel soldiers.
Then there was another sound, another sound... one after another, and it seemed to be approaching quickly.
The lights in the room began to flicker on and off, the energy in the air became more and more intense, and there was even a sharp touch of static electricity on the skin. A gloomy and incomparably cold feeling is approaching from a distance, it is the darkness that is gradually invading.
Tang Yi couldn't understand what happened. But looking at the scene outside the submarine reflected on the bulkhead, he knew that it must not be a good thing.
Maybe a ghost has come aboard...
Several soldiers rushed over like shit, trembling and unable to utter a complete sentence, "People... people have disappeared..."
A rebel soldier grabbed the man's collar and shook it vigorously, "What has disappeared, make it clear!"
"It's just that people disappeared all of a sudden! Victor was standing not far in front of me just now, and suddenly disappeared! And so did the others! Something ate them, but they couldn't see anything! Ah!!! It came over It's gone!"
Almost at the same time, the faces of all the soldiers outside the door were distorted by extreme fear, and even more than half of them threw down their guns and turned around and ran. Tang Yi swallowed his saliva and leaned towards the door with Lee on his back. All the soldiers' attention was looking at somewhere at the end of the corridor, and Tang Yi even saw their hands shaking.
These are outlaws who kill without blinking an eye, what makes them so afraid of it
Tang Yi finally found a suitable angle where he could see the corridor outside the listening room.
Then he suddenly understood the ghost stories of the Mariana Trench that the submariners of the Blue Whale had told before.
He understood why the five submariners who had been exploring Challenger Deep on a deep-water submarine were missing, but the submarine was safe and sound.
At the end of Aogubugu's long corridor, many soldiers were running towards them. Behind them, there is nothing.
But the soldier at the back suddenly disappeared. One second it was still there, but the next second there was nothing. It's as if... devoured by the void, or as if it never existed.
Immediately after, two soldiers were running wildly one after the other. Something invisible was apparently approaching from the rear of the submarine, and everything that passed along the way would be swallowed up.
If the state of Mercury and the underwater waste city seen before were already incomprehensible, the current situation is terrifying. Where have all the people that were swallowed up gone? Does it still exist
How do you feel when you are swallowed? Will it hurt
The instinct to continue to exist left Tang Yi's mind blank. At this moment, a flesh-colored thing suddenly rushed over somewhere on the wall, and it turned out to be the monster whose mercury gene and Leviathan virus gene were mixed. Tang Yi reflexively evaded the attack, but had to let go of Lee.
The next moment Lee was gone.
The desperate cry of the rebel soldiers resounded throughout Ogubugu, and when the invisible thing was about to perish, there was only one thought left in Tang Yi's mind.
You have to die with mercury.
At the last moment, he dropped the gun, turned around and rushed towards Mercury, hugging Mercury's waist tightly. He felt the breath of Mercury enveloped him, and the power released by Mercury caused his skin to scorch, but he didn't want to let go.
He closed his eyes tightly, buried his head in Mercury's shoulder and neck, and waited for death to come.
When the invisible force of devouring touched the body of the human and the siren, they all felt a sudden drop of weightlessness, the whole body was squeezed violently, and the internal organs seemed to be displaced. But this feeling is only for a very brief moment.
The cool water wraps the skin, and there is a long, low voice of the ocean in the distance. Everything was still, no voices were spoken, no screams, not even the sound of the submarine itself.
But the mercury was still in his arms, real, slightly hot. He even felt the slender arm of the siren gently wrapping around his shoulders.
The handcuffs on the Kraken's wrists and the silencer on the mouth are gone.
Tang Yi hesitated and slowly raised his head. He was the first to see Mercury's face, and those eyes returned to light blue, with a shallow water color and softness, and stared silently.
Tang Yi grabbed the cloth on Mercury's body between his fingers, as if to confirm whether he really existed. He suddenly realized how heavy his breathing was and how fast his heart was beating. In this extraordinarily quiet environment, the sound is shocking.
"not dead?"
Tang Yi looked around over Mercury's shoulders. They were in a tall and spacious rotunda, with countless characters and symbols that he did not know on the stone walls, and even many frescoes. Above the head is a semi-circular dome, with blue light passing through the glass painted in the window and slantingly interweaving into colorful shadows on the ground. The ground is paved with marble, flat but with thick sand and no footprints, it seems that no one has come.
The most disturbing thing, however, is that the rotunda has no doors or windows except for hermetically sealed stained glass.
This looks like... the ocean floor? !
But why was he able to breathe freely even though he didn't wear a compression suit or a seawater converter? Why hasn't he been squashed by the pressure of the sea? Is he dreaming? Or dead in hell
Mercury suddenly let go of Tang Yi, as if he suddenly felt severe pain, he knelt on one knee on the ground, blue veins burst out on his forehead, and his hands tightly grasped his hair. Tang Yi was startled, and hurriedly hugged Mercury's shoulders and shouted, "What's wrong with you Mercury! You're not going to be schizophrenic!"
"It's so noisy..." Mercury's brows were wrinkled tightly, and a strong headache had just hit him, like the kind of pain that a mace hits his temples violently. He complained to Tang Yi, but his heart couldn't help softening because of Tang Yi's panic and cute appearance. In this world, besides Tang Ya, there is another person who cares about him so much, which is really amazing.
It's obviously impossible to respond to anything from him, why is this human being so stupid to care about him
Mercury pressed the softness back into the depths of consciousness, refocusing on the current situation. He remembered that he had just lost consciousness briefly, and in a cloud of dreamlike smoke, he seemed to see a lot. But at this moment, I can't think of anything.
Obviously something very important...
"My head hurts..." Mercury had the urge to grab the ground with her head. Tang Yi saw that his painful expression was almost as close to that of dysmenorrhea, so he became anxious, pulled Mercury down, carefully placed Mercury's head on his thigh, and pressed his hands near Mercury's temples. He remembered that when he was a child, he would occasionally suffer from migraine when he was cold, and Tang Ya gave him the massage like that. My brother's hands on the piano were soft and strong, and it was the most comfortable to press.
It's a pity that he doesn't have such a pair of delicate hands.
When he pressed it like this, Mercury's body suddenly tensed, and then relaxed a little bit.
It was a very familiar touch, and Mercury Chaos's mind almost thought it was Tang Ya who was massaging his scalp. He bit his lip just in time and didn't call the wrong name again.
If I call it wrong again, I might be beaten by this kid... Mercury grinned silently.
