"This is … Unit … Fungus … Spreading … Requesting support …"
…
Cold and dark. This was a silent world. The only sound that occasionally sounded here was the bubbling sound of bubbles. …..
And … the communication device that had not been completely disconnected.
The small black box, lying on the dark seabed, intermittently emitting a faint sound …
Accompanying it were a lot of metal fragments and mechanical parts, which originally belonged to a submarine team.
But now, they were just a pile of debris lying quietly on the seabed.
They no longer had the power to do anything, no power … to attack their target, the giant beast in the deep sea.
"Rumble …"
In the darkness, countless bubbles were floating.
The huge figure swayed its body and slowly swam in the depths of the trench … It used special eyes that could see things in the dark to observe the surrounding things. It could be sure that it had reached a safe area.
It had previously … destroyed a submarine fleet.
Those submarines were originally studying the things that grew on the seabed, but they were not unprepared. The reason why they were destroyed so easily was mainly because some changes had happened to this giant beast.
The scars on its body from the previous bombardment … had disappeared. They were almost all healed. Moreover, the giant beast's body also showed some … special appearance.
Its abdomen was now emitting a faint fluorescent light, the same color as the fungi that spread on the seabed, and these colors were slowly spreading to its body.
Just like the infection process of fungi on ordinary creatures … it slowly spread to the whole body of that creature.
But, for the giant beast. This spreading process would not make it feel pain, but it would make it … stronger and stronger.
… Light?
The giant beast looked up, and a burst of light appeared in the distance above it. It was obviously the light of another submarine force.
They were still far away, but the giant beast could see it. It was a small team of five submarines. They obviously wanted to come here to search for the submarines that had been destroyed before.
Moreover, there were no other forces around them.
"Rumble …"
Its tail swayed gently, and the fluorescent light on the giant beast's abdomen instantly dissipated. Its body was like a missile shuttling through the sea, swimming in a straight line toward the submarine force.
The light emitted by those submarines was getting closer and closer. The giant beast's eyes slowly narrowed. It suddenly swung its tail and sped up. Its huge body instantly entered the range of the submarine's light.
Fear … the giant beast could feel it.
The tiny creatures hiding in the metal cans were overwhelmed by fear the moment it appeared. This caused all the submarines to be unable to react immediately when it appeared.
Countless living beings perished because of their slowness, and so did the Voidfolk who operated the submarines.
Crack!
The giant beast approached the first submarine. It opened its huge mouth and bit down on the head of the submarine. With a cracking sound, metal fragments scattered in the water.
It was even more brittle than before … The giant beast had such a feeling when it bit him.
Whoosh!
Only then did the late missiles shoot towards the giant beast, and the other four submarines began to fire at it.
Releasing the submarine in front, the giant monster twisted its body in the water, allowing the missiles to fly past it. None of the missiles hit it.
Under normal circumstances, such dodging would be pointless. Not only would the missiles turn, but they would also turn. It would also explode when the target entered the explosion range.
But they didn't.
No missiles exploded, and no missiles turned. They swept past the giant beast, then flew into the distance and hit the rock wall of the trench, making a rumbling sound.
It was filled with doubt and fear.
While the giant beast was guessing the emotions of the Voidfolk, it turned around and swam to another submarine. Two missiles also shot towards it at the same time. This time … it didn't dodge.
The explosion of light bloomed on the giant beast's face. The surging water and bubbles covered its body. But this didn't even last for … even half a second.
The giant beast's body emerged from the explosion of light. Its huge mouth full of sawtooth bit the head of the submarine. Just like before.
When the sound of metal cracking rang out, the giant beast let go. The cold and dark seawater was like the most terrifying poison. It would pour into the submarine's wound and kill all the creatures inside.
The giant beast knew this very well, so it didn't need to waste time biting the entire submarine to pieces. It had now turned around and swam to the nearest … target that was still alive.
Was it already thinking of escaping?
A huge amount of bubbles gushed out of the submarine that was targeted by the giant beast. It quickly retreated and shot out several missiles at the same time. The two submarines around it also did the same. At this moment, more than ten missiles surrounded the giant beast.
'Bang!' An explosion sounded, but it was before the missiles arrived.
A thick white fog suddenly expanded around the giant beast's body and then exploded. It caused the seawater to surge continuously, and the entire area was merged into the white fog.
The missiles flew into the white fog without any sound. The submarines could only see the white fog expanding until they couldn't see anything, including their companions.
In the display screen of the detector, they could only see a blur.
They kept retreating and escaping the range of the white fog. This was the first thing they wanted to do. However, the first submarine that had this idea was the first to be dragged into the thick fog.
The giant beast suddenly appeared in the thick fog in front of it, and it didn't even have time to react.
Following the explosion of this submarine, the giant beast went to find the second submarine. While the Voidfolk in the two lost submarines were struggling in the sea, it had already swam to find the third submarine.
This team was really weak.
Just as this thought appeared in the giant beast's mind, it realized … where was the third submarine?
It had already dealt with the other submarines, but this one seemed to have disappeared. Why?
…
"Stay here and don't move, you bunch of stupid things."
This place was deep in the sea.
In the deep sea that was filled with thick fog.
This white fog was thinner and denser than the 'snow' that the giant beast released beside the underwater city, so it could be called fog.
When all the Voidfolk agreed that they had to escape from this white fog, a voice told them that they should stay in the fog and not run away.
In this way, they wouldn't be discovered.
Soon, this statement was confirmed. The submarines that stayed in the fog and didn't move … were indeed not attacked.
And the one who gave this order was not a Voidfolk, but an individual creature.
"Next … what should we do?" In the submarine cabin, the Voidfolk looked at this creature with a strange expression. Although this creature had given them many useful suggestions, the Voidfolk still found it difficult to get along with it.
The main reason was that its mouth was too big.
Now, it was communicating with the Voidfolk. "Next, stay here and stare blankly. You can roll on the ground a few times, but don't go overboard."
"Uh … roll a few times?"
"It's fine if you don't roll, but this will prove that you are very stupid."
A Cryopteris was staying in this submarine. It was the commander of this submarine.
In fact, it didn't join in the name of commander. At first, it was just a bystander, because Maya had also contacted the general. After talking for a while, the general agreed to let one of its troops enter the submarine team to participate in the hunt for the giant beast.
When the Voidfolk first saw it, they directly treated it as a fungus creature and wanted to attack it. Later, the general explained that 'this is an ally in the fight against the Brain Spirit', and it barely gained the trust of the Voidfolk.
In the beginning, Cryopteris was indeed only observing, it didn't give any orders or do anything else.
It wasn't until the submarine it was on was about to be destroyed that it started to give orders. Of course, the commander of the submarine didn't agree with the decision to stop in the fog, so Cryopteris roared at the commander until he fainted. Under its loud roar, the Voidfolk decided to stop.
The shattering sound around them let the Voidfolk know that the other submarines were attacked, but this one was not. It was then that the Voidfolk believed … that Cryopteris was right.
"Why don't you roll?" Looking at the spaced out Voidfolk, Cryopteris roared again. "You should know that a brain that can roll is smarter. Just like the monster outside that can't roll, even though the fog it releases can affect these detection devices, it will also affect itself. It won't be able to detect objects that are motionless in the fog, so you are safe if you don't move."
"I see …" one of the Voidfolk said, "But how do you know this?"
"I know it better than you do." Cryopteris said, "But if you learn how to roll, you'll be able to learn this knowledge very quickly."
"I think …" the Voidfolk said, "You don't have to roll, you just have to tell us."
"Is that so …" Cryopteris looked at this Voidfolk. Even though the Voidfolk couldn't see Cryopteris' expression, they felt like the Voidfolk was glaring at them angrily. This caused the Voidfolk to take a few steps back.
"Then I'll tell you." Cryopteris said, "The creature has become stronger than before, and this is all because of you."
"What?" one of the Voidfolk gasped in shock. "What does that have to do with us?"
"It has to do with the thing you buried." The Explosive Roar Worm said: "Although the thing you buried looks cylindrical and can roll around, in reality, it has always been there and has never been touched. Your violent actions have led to the current situation … …" (To be continued: 1qd0202)
