Screams … fear … were spreading throughout the underwater city.
"Help! Ahhh! That monster … the monster is coming in! "
A building collapsed amidst the screams of the Voidfolk. The gigantic beast that was originally in the deep sea was already strolling on the streets of the city. While it was leaving huge paw prints on the ground, it was also looking down at its surroundings.
It was looking down at those … fleeing Voidfolk.
"Hurry up and let us in!" Suddenly, the gigantic beast's eyes noticed a street in the distance. Many Voidfolk were gathered there, and they were knocking on the door of a building beside them.
That building had a name, Deep Sea Train Station No. 2.
Of course, the gigantic beast did not care about its name. It only knew that there were many Voidfolk there, and it was very suitable for its next target.
"Gulp …" The gigantic beast's neck slowly swelled up. At the same time, it aimed its head at the group of Voidfolk. Its brain, which had a certain level of intelligence, was calculating where it should aim to create the most beneficial effect …
"It seems like it wants to do something!" Suddenly, one of the Voidfolk saw the gigantic beast and immediately screamed. Its voice also affected the other Voidfolk, and they immediately scattered in all directions.
"Bang!!!" At the same time that the Voidfolk scattered, the gigantic beast opened its mouth, and a water column gushed out, hitting the center of the group of Voidfolk. The Voidfolk who were hit were instantly drowned, and they did not even have time to scream.
The other Voidfolk around them had many chances to scream.
"Ahhhh! What is this! It hurts! Help … "
The Voidfolk who were hit by the splashing water all felt intense pain in their bodies. They fell to the ground and kept rolling, but it was as if they were rolling on a hot floor. The more they rolled, the more pain they felt.
Then, they stopped moving completely.
A large amount of mycelium started to spread and grow in the area hit by the water column, and finally completely wrapped around the fallen Voidfolk.
The Voidfolk who were not hit looked at their companions in horror. They did not care about the station anymore. Instead, they frantically ran in any direction that could get away from the gigantic beast.
"Bang!" However, another water column hit the group of fleeing Voidfolk.
They fell to the ground screaming like their companions before, and then waited for the mycelium to slowly swallow them …
The cries of terror had been loud in the area at first, but now they were slowly dying down.
After a while, the area around the giant beast was covered in white dust, covering the corpses of the Voidfolk. There were more and more of them here.
At the same time, they were also releasing fungal dust into the air. The fungus had already spread to the entire city.
All the citizens were in a state of panic, and the reinforcements that came from afar … The submarines in the water could only watch the development of the situation. They could not do anything.
And in the city. There was no army capable of fighting against the behemoth, only a few weapons used to maintain law and order. They were completely helpless against this creature, plus the wildly spreading mycelium …
"That's the only thing we can do."
In a building called the Town Hall, a group of Voidfolk who were in charge of commanding were still gathered here. Although the situation outside was very dangerous, they had never left this place since the beginning.
Except for a few who fled in fear like ordinary civilians, most of the people here thought that this was the best place to stay.
Because. This building was very safe. Because it was sealed, the fungus was unlikely to infect the people here. At the same time, it was also very waterproof. Even if the seawater flooded this place, it would be fine. However, even such a safe place could not calm them down.
"Yes! That's a fungal creature! "
Most of the Voidfolk here were looking at a Voidfolk sitting in the center of the hall. It was using a communication device to speak non-stop, "This monster can spit out a large amount of infectious liquid from its mouth. The infection has already spread in the city … What? You want us to wait? How long do we have to wait? You … "
Before it finished speaking, the communication device was cut off.
"What should we do …" The Voidfolk in charge of the communication device looked at the other Voidfolk around him. They were all at their wits' end, but at least they looked calmer. They were not as panicked as the communicator …
'Boom!'
However, the tremors outside made them unable to calm down. As the ground trembled, a few Voidfolk who were sitting immediately stood up and ran towards the entrance of the hall in a hurry.
"Wait, you guys!" The communicator immediately shouted at them, "Why are you running? It's impossible to leave now! "
This city had set up some special passageways for Voidfolk with special identities to leave, but those passageways had to pass through the underground naval base, the place that was already flooded … Therefore, if they wanted to leave now, they had to squeeze into the train station with the civilians.
Obviously, this was impossible, but they did not want to stay here. Although this building was not afraid of flooding, they did not know if this building would collapse if it was hit by the giant beast.
The giant beast was moving in the city. The streets of the city could not bear its weight. Potholes were formed from its steps, but this did not affect its movement speed.
"It's very close to here!"
The few Voidfolk who were trying to escape heard the sound outside getting closer and closer. They desperately opened the door of the hall …
'Bang!' The moment the door was opened, a white dust rushed in from outside the door and instantly began to fill the entire hall.
"This is …"
The Voidfolk here looked at the fog that filled the sky. They did not even have the chance to react before they all fell to the ground …
"No … Why …"
However, there was one Voidfolk who did not completely fall. It was lying on the ground, enduring the pain all over its body as it crawled forward with all its might.
It was the communicator from before. It could feel the mycelium all over its body constantly tearing at its flesh and spreading rapidly inside its body. However, because it did not affect its brain, it still had some ability to move.
It used all its strength to support its body and crawled to the side of the table where the communicator was talking. It looked up. It seemed to be the first time in its life that it felt so hateful that the table was so tall.
However, it no longer had the strength to stand up, so it knocked on the leg of the table forcefully. Suddenly, a small object on the table rolled down.
"Enter … Open …"
This object was a video device. It stretched out its hand with difficulty and clicked on the three-dimensional image that popped up several times. It also entered the password, and then …
"Open the door …"
After it finally finished, it finally lay on the ground. As it felt the intense pain in its body, it slowly closed … its eyes.
At the same time, outside.
"Ahhhhhhh!" The screams continued. The giant beast's huge body was walking between the buildings and the streets. Everywhere it passed, only ruins were left behind as if they had been bombed.
It was now approaching another gathering point of the Voidfolk … A nearby train station.
When the Voidfolk saw it, they fled in panic like before, and the giant beast aimed at them.
However, this time, it did not vomit as quickly as before because … it heard a little sound.
"Warning, warning, the door is about to rise. All citizens not in the safe zone, please pay attention. The door is about to rise. All citizens must reach the safe zone within 300 seconds or take safety measures. Otherwise, the death rate will be as high as 99%."
This sound echoed throughout the city. Many citizens did not know what was going on, but some immediately screamed when they heard this sound. "Why is the door opening?"
'Click …'
There were many doors around the city's protective walls. They had many uses, such as … building new pipelines, making new train exits, and so on.
However, without these functions, the door could still be opened … But after it was opened, what would happen?
"… Woo …" The giant beast stopped breathing and turned to look at the wall in the distance. There was a crack on the wall, and that crack was slowly expanding.
They would open layer by layer, and when all the doors on the protective wall were opened …
The fungus that the giant beast created here would be completely wasted, and all the Voidfolk here would be completely submerged by the cold sea.
The Giant Beast did not make any special moves in the face of a situation that did not benefit either side. It only stood there and watched. However, it also stopped attacking the Voidfolk. It clearly knew that … it was meaningless to do such a thing now.
However, when the Voidfolk here saw this situation, they went completely crazy.
They thought that they had been abandoned, so they had to die together with the giant beast …
… At the same time, on the other side …
"They've opened the door?"
A group of submarines outside had been observing the situation. They had not done anything so far, they were just waiting for more reinforcements to arrive. They now knew that the door had been opened. Although the outermost door had not been opened, they could still receive the signal from inside.
"What are they thinking? We have to stop them! "
"Yes, we should be able to connect to the line inside …"
"No, that's not necessary." Seeing that the operators had started to move, the commander in the submarine interrupted them. "Just now, I received an order from the general …"
"He said … Let the door open."
