on the mainland.
A group of researchers in the doomsday laboratory are having a meeting in a conference room.
The leading researcher is a brown-haired young man wearing black-rimmed glasses. He is showing the data analysis results to the rest of the team.
"Earthquakes, big and small, happen every day in the ocean."
After reading the analysis of the Brown Hair Research Institute, a researcher felt that he was making a fuss.
"Muran, this doesn't mean that the sea monster is coming."
The youth called Mu Ran:
"We found the eggshell fragments of a certain creature in the nearby seawater."
The image changed a few times, and under the gaze of the researchers, it returned to a white eggshell.
If Lance was still here, he would definitely be able to recognize it at a glance——
Isn't this his eggshell
"According to the known data, this is the egg shell of a new type of organism. The good news is that we only found one."
Mu Ran said, "But the bad news is that the guy in the Nat Trench woke up and came near the shallow sea."
All the researchers couldn't help but gasp.
In 487 AD, the end of the world, the ocean, which has always allowed humans to do whatever they want, launched an attack on humans.
The sea monster in the deep sea wakes up from the abyss and pronounces judgment on human beings.
After so many years, the surviving humans have reached a delicate balance with the ocean, and now, humans are carefully maintaining this fragile balance.
However, the guy who woke up in the Nat Trench may easily break this balance.
"Then, since it's awake, do you know what's inside that sea monster?"
asked a new researcher.
Mu Ran smiled and said:
"Although most of the known sea monsters evolved from existing creatures in the sea, the one in that sea monster is different."
No one knows what the sea monster in Nat Kraken really is.
The research institute once sent a machine to test it, and the only conclusion it came to was that the shape and appearance of that thing was not fixed, and it was a mass of indescribable matter.
The only good thing is that the thing is sleeping most of the time and has no interest in invading the mainland.
"In most cases, he appears in the form of tentacles."
Mu Ran showed a huge black hole on the ground of the shallow sea, and said,
"That's the mark he made."
But why did that thing suddenly wake up from the deep sea and come to the shallow sea
Everyone was puzzled, and the only suggestion was to send personnel to investigate on the spot to see if they could find any clues.
"I've already thought about the candidate for this time."
Muran,
"Let Colonel Wen Yu go with his team."
Everyone was shocked when they heard the name:
"Colonel Wen Yu? Isn't he... qualified for this task?"
"Maybe."
Mu Ran's answer was very cold, "Who knows?"
Hearing this answer, some researchers sighed.
It seemed that someone wanted Colonel Wen Yu to die.
…
Little did Lance know that his birthplace was being shown to a crowd.
He is only worried now, how to quickly dig the escape channel under the cover of that mass of fleshy arms and legs.
He has been digging for a long time.
Even the wrists and feet have been replaced several times, but the escape route has not been dug.
Yes, that "octopus" with a cleanliness thought that Lance likes to eat meaty arms. In order to feed Lance better, it would throw a piece of fresh and processed meaty arms into the coral bone every day.
And what Lance needs to do is to go forward quickly while the tentacles are not there, replace the old fleshy arms and legs with fresh ones, and then wait for the tentacles to take the old fleshy arms and legs away.
All in all, Lance hasn't revealed his secrets.
Sometimes, Lance would think maliciously, every day he was fed a piece of fleshy arm, could it be that if he had a bigger appetite, after a month, the "octopus" outside would cut himself into slices , Feed him.
Suddenly a little pity tentacles, what should I do
During this time, Lance has been pretending to be good.
After being in contact with the tentacle for a long time, Lance realized that this tentacle seemed to be particularly indulgent to him.
Lance's previous behavior caused some misunderstanding to the tentacle.
In the eyes of the tentacles, doesn't Lance "like" throwing pearls with the tentacles
The next day, Tentacle brought over a dozen large pearls to Lance. The smallest pearl was the size of a fist, and the largest pearl was purple and the size of a basketball.
In this regard, Lance could only pretend to be extremely happy, collected the pearls in front of the tentacle, and then took out another pearl to play "throwing pearls" with the tentacle.
But in fact, after the tentacles left, Lance sat in a pile of pearls with a stinky face, and he hated again, why this is not land.
If he was still human, he would be a millionaire if he landed a pearl at random.
Of course, this is just a thought.
After playing hide and seek with the tentacles a few times, Lance probably figured out the tentacle's movement pattern.
He found that every time before the tentacles appeared, there would be a certain recruitment—
When the water above his head darkened a little more, about five minutes later, the tentacles would reach into the coral bone.
According to Lance's own estimation, the time interval between each tentacle's visit to Lance should be one day.
Today Lance pushed the carpals away as usual, and then began to dig the coral bones.
Now the problem he encountered was exactly the same as before, the more he went to the outer layer, the harder it was to dig.
Lance is digging with his hands very hard now. One of his hands was already hurting a lot yesterday, but he didn't plan to rest, and it's still the same today.
The narrow hole was almost completely dark, even if Lance brought in fluorescent pearls, he couldn't see clearly, so he could only dig out the coral bones according to his intuition.
"Garden"
There was a crisp sound, followed by a piercing pain in his fingertips.
Lance froze for a moment, then he smelled blood.
Shouldn't it be...
Lance hurriedly came out of the dug cave, looked at it with a little bright light outside, and tears came out of pain.
His fingernails were split and his fingertips were bleeding.
Ten fingers connected to the heart, even if Lance is a man, he can't bear to cut five fingernails in a row.
He was in so much pain that he couldn't stop his tears, and what was amazing was that the tears that flowed from Lance's eye sockets turned into pearls and slowly slipped down after they flowed out.
However, Lance doesn't have that kind of thought now, so he went to see the tears.
What surprised Lance even more was that the mermaid's self-healing ability was beyond his imagination. The wound on his fingertips was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Is this a good thing
For the current Lance, it is not a good thing.
The position of his nails was shifted, and his self-healing speed was so fast that before Lance had time to pull out the crooked nails, the nails grew back from the flesh.
This hurts Lance.
Lance tried to pull out the crooked nails, but because of his own reasons, he couldn't pull them out.
So Lance could only sit there collapsed, with his hands on the tail of the fish, crying like a child.
After a while, the sand around Lance was covered with tiny white pearls.
After Lance cried for a while, the tentacles came.
As soon as the tentacles entered the coral bone, they saw Lance sitting on the sand and crying loudly. The ground was full of little pearls he cried out, and he was shocked.
Lance opened a pair of teary eyes and watched the tentacle twirling anxiously, almost tying a knot himself.
He blinked, and couldn't help but burst out laughing.
This smile finally interrupted the crying.
Seeing that Lance was no longer crying, the tentacle seemed relieved, and then slowly approached Lance under Lance's gaze.
Lance glanced at the end of the tentacle, thought for a moment, and showed his injured hand towards the end.
He had heard that some sea creatures had eyes on their tentacles, so he guessed that the "octopus" in front of him should also be able to "see" his wound.
The tentacle didn't expect that Lance would take the initiative to touch it. Its entire tentacle stiffened for a moment, and then it slowly touched Lance's hand with its tiny tail.
When the tentacle touched Lance's nails, Lance screamed in pain, and the tentacle understood where Lance's pain came from, and it stopped.
Lance:
He suddenly felt guilty.
Shouldn't it, did it think of something
Fortunately, the tentacle didn't care. It circled its tail and tried to touch Lance's hand, but as soon as it touched Lance, Lance struggled and neighed.
This makes the tentacle difficult to heal, not to mention that it really can't do such fine movements.
If you want to treat Lance's finger, you must first pull out the broken nail
The tentacle also thought so, but when it tried to pick off Lance's nails, Lance was too uncooperative.
Lance couldn't tell whether he avoided it because he was afraid of pain, or because he couldn't stand the touch of the tentacles.
There was a tug-of-war between the fish and the tentacle, and finally Lance was so angry that he bit off the end of the tentacle.
Tentacle: "..."
Lance spat out the little tail with a "bah", then gritted his teeth and swam into the sea anemone.
The pain in his hand was not unbearable, forget it, it was just five nails chopped off.
And the tentacle that was bitten for no reason was stunned for a while, and finally it twisted, as if it was very helpless for Lance's move.
Lance's move was basically a tickle for the tentacle, so it didn't care about it.
only…
Okay, why did Lance chop off his nails
The tentacle thought for a moment, then secretly separated a small group of slender tentacles, and slowly crawled towards the fleshy arms and legs.
Before, it always thought that its little fish had the habit of hoarding food, so it didn't care about it, but now it seems that its little fish may be doing something it doesn't know.
