Views:

The action of the Soviet submarine commander seemed to be a starting signal, and the other allied fighters around him also made the same weird actions after checking their physical condition. They waved their twisted and swollen arms and swayed their bodies silently. Hao Ren was stunned for a moment before realizing what was going on: They were indeed cheering, celebrating that they had finally gotten rid of the control of the nightmare.

But they couldn't speak, because all of them had dead vocal cords, and they didn't know how to use other forces to make sounds.

"Uh... It looks like you are very happy," Hao Ren smiled stiffly, "Then what, you can understand what I'm saying, right?"

A submarine sailor gestured clumsily, and Hao Ren immediately knew that the other party understood what he meant, and they had completely recovered their sanity. Vivian looked at this scene in disbelief, and suddenly realized that this was an unexpected and huge gain: "Wait a minute, so you still remember what you experienced when you were controlled by magic?"

The submarine commander nodded, silently making an angry gesture.

Hao Ren took the conversation: "Then you also saw what we did here just now? It's just that you couldn't move at that time?"

The submarine commander nodded again, and if Hao Ren understood correctly, he expressed his thanks to everyone with a stiff posture.

"It's too strenuous to communicate like this," Vivienne turned her head. "Who knows more about undead magic? You can translate what's in their minds."

At this time Tutanyin suddenly took a step forward: "I am proficient in spiritism and several major languages of human beings. These dead should be similar to ordinary undead. You can try it."

"Uh, I almost forgot about you because you haven't spoken all this time," Hao Ren scratched his hair awkwardly, "Then you can try it, but you'd better hurry up, we've already made a lot of noise, and the sentry will come anytime .”

Tutan nodded, came to the allied sailors and whispered an ancient and strange incantation. Around his eyes began to form black patterns that depicted the dark parts of the cycle of life. Then he raised his head and took a half step back: "It's already done, I will serve as a bridge for you to communicate. If you have any questions, just ask."

Vivian immediately asked the first question: "The situation of the Siren Queen, and the situation in the palace area..."

Hao Ren didn't have much hope for these answers at first, but soon he realized why Vivienne thought that these undead held the key to enter the palace area: these allied sailors knew far more about Nasathorn Far beyond everyone's imagination, because they are the "loyal workers" who are the least likely to betray in the whole city, and are easier to control than other sea monsters who are struggling to resist at any time, so the brain monsters let these undead participate in a lot Work. Including the repair of some facilities in the palace area and the guard duties of the inner city for a certain period of time. Some undead sailors even went to the secret room underground in the palace area - where the giant brain was "imprisoned", and the latter was obviously a cautious guy. Only these undead sailors can go to the secret room.

This continues until enough brainwashed Krakens are available to replace them.

In the beginning, the control crystals of these undead sailors were directly controlled by the giant brain. When the sea monsters were still unstable, the giant brain directly gave orders to these sailors. It was two years ago that they were handed over to the Siren Overseer.

The Soviet submarine commander was named Ivan. He had entered the Siren Queen's palace as a worker, and had personally seen the giant brain entrenched in the secret room. He described in detail the scene he had witnessed through the mouth of Tutan, and the details were incredible.

Vivian learned as much as she could about the palace before Tutanne's psychic spells failed. Then she looked to the other end of the hall: "According to Ivan, there is a water circulation channel from here that can directly enter the palace. Passing through that door is the entrance."

"But what about these sailors?" Hao Ren glanced at the undead sailors who had just escaped control, "Throw them here?"

At this moment, those sailors suddenly made an unexpected move: led by several commanders, the undead sailors stretched their hands to their chests, and then forcibly pulled out the gray-blue crystals embedded in their hearts come out!

There was a crackling sound, and the sailors crushed the crystals that provided them with energy but also controlled their actions, and blood-like fine sand flowed out from the hole in their chests, and each soldier quickly became Weakened, but they swayed and did not fall. Ivan came to Hao Ren. Raising his finger to the door on the other side of the hall, he opened his mouth and nodded silently.

"They must destroy these crystals in order to rest in peace." Tutan activated the spiritism again, "Before that, he wants to lead you the way."

Ivan nodded silently, the skin on his face was rapidly decomposing, and the fine sand flowed out of the wound uncontrollably, but he opened his mouth and showed a happy smile—this was the last task they performed with free will .

Hao Ren didn't talk nonsense, turned around and swam to the gate: "Hurry up!"

Led by hundreds of undead sailors, the team quickly passed through gates and tunnels to the palace of the Siren Queen. They bypassed all intersections that were easily blocked, and moved forward in various maintenance passages and water circulation pipelines, and the destination was right in front of them.

There was a faint sound of a sharp flute from a distance, and Soma immediately reminded everyone: "It's an alarm. The sentinel has discovered the situation of the resonance cavity."

Shakira once again urged the water to increase everyone's speed: "Hurry up, the palace is right in front of you!"

Hao Ren saw from the signs of the surrounding pipeline facilities that he was approaching a place called "Core Command Module". He looked around again and saw groups of dilapidated World War II soldiers, with time disorder and confusion of life and death. The feeling can't help rushing to my heart. The bodies of those undead sailors are rapidly collapsing. Fine sand spills from the wounds of each soldier, leaving a long trail behind the line. Soldiers keep falling behind, turning into fine sand and falling with a bang, leaving only The next rotten old military uniform. The original team was very large when they set off, but now the remaining people are less than one-third of the original number. Hundreds of sailors have been completely reduced to fine sand after losing their energy supply.

Shakira approached Ivan, her voice was low: "I apologize to you for the mistakes of my compatriots..."

Ivan's body was also disintegrating. He looked almost a skeleton now, but he still tried to open his mouth and shook his head with a smiling expression. Tutan's voice came from behind: "They saw with their own eyes how the sea monsters were controlled little by little. Although their bodies lost their freedom, they knew very well who the real culprit was."

Shakira lowered her head slightly: "Thank you, this makes me feel better."

Ivan nodded, and together with another Allied officer beside him, he accelerated and led the crowd to sprint towards the last gate.

Just less than half a meter away from the gate, Ivan's body split into three cracks and dissipated into sand.

A British officer passing by him glanced down, paused for a moment to pay tribute, then turned and opened the gate.

Behind the gate is a rest room, and a dozen siren guards in a state of astonishment are turning their heads.

The siren guard in the lead quickly reacted, she raised her trident high, and at the same time opened her mouth to let out a piercing scream, shock waves visible to the naked eye erupted from the front of the siren, and several undead sailors rushed up immediately, Their bodies were torn apart by the shock wave and turned into fine sand, but their broken heads flew straight out, biting the wrists of those sea monsters holding the trident with their teeth before they completely collapsed!

The dust and the surprise attack slightly delayed the reaction of the Kraken Sentinels, and Hao Ren immediately led everyone to rush forward: "Quick battle!"

A chaotic encounter broke out suddenly, and piercing screams and continuous explosions sounded quickly in the narrow water circulation channel. Everyone knew that the sentries in other places had sounded the alarm, so this time they did not suppress the silence, but Come up and solve the battle with all your strength!

The encounter lasted only a minute, and the last sea monster screamed and turned into foam under the burning of the holy flame of the white fire, and the surrounding air was filled with scorching water and drifting fine sand. Only some sea monsters were caught by Hao Ren into the portable space, and the other guards were killed directly - which means that they will soon be revived nearby, and then attract a large number of guards to block this passage.

Almost all the undead sailors were killed in battle, only a few scattered commanders were still behind the team, and they no longer had the strength to lead the way ahead. Their comrades-in-arms and subordinates turned into the sand in this deep-water channel, and they themselves had reached the end of this long service. After continuing to swim forward for a short distance, the team stopped in the channel.

The last two Allied soldiers leaned against the nearby pipeline, their bodies collapsing uncontrollably. A captain clenched his fists and gestured as if he wanted to say something. He also couldn't understand what the two undead who were about to collapse were thinking.

However, Hao Ren quickly understood the meaning of the other party through his gestures.

He bent down and held the captain's hand: "You win, the German is finished."

Then he turned to look at the last Soviet soldier next to him: "Leningrad is also defended."

The two warriors nodded in satisfaction and turned into yellow sand all over the ground. (to be continued~^~)
