Because of the special contact with Yue Hen last night, as well as the physical strain from the surgery, Yi Chen slept until almost the time for departure.
When Mimihuhu woke up, the scene in front of him immediately made him lose all sleepiness.
The originally crystal clear Leng Lake has now been completely dyed black, with even a large amount of black hair sticking out of the lake, swaying like water plants.
in addition,
The lame Field had boarded the boat at some point and was standing at the bow observing the changes in Lenghu Lake.
"Are you awake? You seemed very tired last night. Did anything happen?"
Facing Field's question, Yi Chen replied calmly: "We are about to set off for the Holy Grail Mountain. I just want to sleep as much as possible. Otherwise, I may not have a chance to sleep in the next few days."
Field didn't doubt anything. He was more concerned about what was happening in front of him.
"Hmm... Is this cemetery product of yours really from the Seven Days Cemetery?"
"Yes, Little Grape left the Seven Days Cemetery with me, participated in the organization's assessment and came to this point. As for what it is, I'm not sure, and even the current gentleman's clothing can't detect it."
"You can't even recognize a gentleman's suit? How interesting! Once I finish the rest of the things here, I'll have to find time to go meet that Wilbert kid."
Just as the two were talking about Little Grape, the surface of the lake became restless.
Gurgle gurgle~
One after another, black bubbles emerged from the lake. From a certain angle, these bubbles looked like sparkling eyeballs.
Every time a bubble bursts, a thick black mist floats up into the sky.
As the amount increased, a terrifying demonic face even vaguely appeared in the air.
Such a strange sight attracted the gentlemen of the town, who sat around the shore of Leng Lake, each with their weapons drawn, alert for the terrifying monster that might emerge from under the lake.
At this time, Lame Field's voice spread from the center of the lake and echoed throughout the cemetery:
"Don't be nervous. This is not a dangerous situation. All the bodies in Lenghu have been moved away. Now it is just the final treatment of the lake water."
After hearing what Mr. Field said, everyone put away their weapons and most of the gentlemen returned to their posts.
but,
The team members who were attracted by the vision and some gentlemen who were on leave today stayed here to see what was going on.
Slowly,
As the black fog in the sky slowly dissipated, the black hair floating on the lake also disappeared.
The water level dropped by about two meters, and the lake water became turbid and dark, making it unusable for burying bodies.
Just then, an unsettling feeling of being watched came from the bottom of the lake.
Even the gentlemen standing on the shore could clearly feel as if their bodies were completely seen through by this sense of voyeurism, and they could not help but tighten their clothes and take a step back.
It seemed as if a giant eye sleeping at the bottom of the lake was slowly opening.
Only Jin and Reagan did not take any action because they knew what was at the bottom of the lake.
The mask on Jin's face was partially lifted, revealing her pink thin lips, which were holding a strawberry-flavored lollipop, as she watched everything silently.
"With William's eyes enhanced, our journey up the mountain will be much easier~ I don't want to spend too much time on boring things like mountain climbing."
At this time, the huge object at the bottom of the lake began to float up, and the entire lake began to surge.
Just when it seemed that something terrible was about to break out of the water... Puff! A faint splash of water appeared in the center of the lake.
A black mass tumbled in the air for three and a half weeks before landing steadily on the edge of the boat, with water dripping from all the hair on its body.
The mouth holding the eyeballs made an excited mixed sound:
"Wow! It's so comfortable. This lake is really a good thing. It can actually wash away all the dirt that has accumulated on my body for hundreds of years. I feel like I have become lighter."
As he spoke, Little Grape began to jump on the spot, performing several difficult aerial somersaults in succession.
Pah~
At the end of the last movement, both feet landed steadily on Yi Chen's shoulders, and then he saluted gracefully to the lame Field.
"Thank you very much. I will keep the "Will of Lenghu" in my body. As long as I am alive, it means that Lenghu Cemetery exists in another form."
Between words,
Pure cold lake water actually overflowed from the walls of Little Grape's mouth, causing the eyeballs in her mouth to float on this special cold saliva, and the washed eyeballs became bright and spirited.
When seeing this scene, Mr. Field actually laughed from the bottom of his heart.
"It seems that an old man like me should really retire, and I can be regarded as inheriting the cemetery... Now it is past the scheduled time to board the bus, it is time for you to do what you should do."
"Let's go! This Grape is going to kill everyone!"
Little Grape, who was full of confidence, directly used a set of random dog punches on Yi Chen's shoulder.
Because she had been buried at the bottom of the lake for a whole day, half of which was spent sleeping, Little Grape had no intention of returning to Yi Chen's body for the time being.
The wooden boat returned to the shore and the team gathered.
"let's go!"
After saying goodbye to the lame Field, everyone's attention was naturally focused on Little Grape. Feeling everyone's gazes, Little Grape also began to pose in various ways.
Yi Chen also asked curiously: "Little Grape, what benefit did you get from making such a big fuss? Or have you evolved to a more perfect stage?"
"Without the best grapes to eat, there's no point in advancing! Didn't I just say that the special properties of Lenghu cleans my entire body and makes my movements more flexible? The dirt on my body has accumulated for hundreds of years and it can't be washed away by simply taking a shower.
I'm now moving at least 20% faster."
"What else?"
"And...ah!" Little Grape opened her mouth wide, and a stream of extremely cold saliva flowed out of her mouth, making Yi Chen shiver.
"My saliva has acquired the properties of Lenghu Cemetery. It can clean my eyeballs at any time. It also makes me more water-savvy. My speed of moving underwater has increased by about 30%."
"That's it?"
Not only Yi Chen, Jin and Reagan also had the same expression.
"What do you mean, this is a huge improvement, okay? My flexibility has increased. If you are killed, I can escape immediately, and maybe even recover your body afterwards.
There is also free eye cleaning solution, which can directly refresh your eyes if you have been working in an area without water for a long time, causing dry eyes and decreased vision. "
"I saw that the entire lake surface was covered by your hair, and black mist was overflowing, forming a demonic phantom in the air... Is this the only improvement it brings?"
"When washing your body, you must clean every hair.
During the cleaning process, the useless corpse gas that is expelled along with the dirt is the black mist you see, which is similar to your farts, except that I have been holding back my farts for dozens or even hundreds of years. "
After hearing what Little Grape said, it felt like the taste was about to overflow, and Yi Chen stopped asking any more questions.
“However, I have absorbed the characteristics of Lenghu Cemetery. As I grow older, it may be more useful. At present, it only serves as an eye wash.
If you really want me to improve my abilities, please get some attention to me.
Without further ado, the next mission is a great opportunity, let’s get going.”
Not long after boarding the carriage,
The overly excited little grape finally calmed down. Since no one was paying attention to it, it didn't want to stay outside anymore.
When it drilled back into Yi Chen's body along the collar, all the hair on its body trembled violently!
An absolute death threat.
He used all his strength to squeeze out his shoulders, and just when he opened his mouth to say something, bang! Yi Chen covered his mouth with one hand.
The next second, he was dragged into the body by a powerful force and there was no sound anymore.
