54. God's Sorrow
"The bomb has been activated and the safety bolt is being released. It will be ready to launch in 15 seconds."
Chu Zihang gave Caesar an affirmative look.
Caesar smiled brightly, with a high-spirited attitude as if he had the overall situation in hand, "Lu Mingfei is ready to float, the air chamber is ready to drain, the stabilizer is ready, the propeller system is ready, and the bomb is ready to float immediately!"
"Boss, please slow down, I'm flipping through the book!" Lu Mingfei nervously flipped through the operation manual.
"..."Caesar.
The atmosphere was just ruined.
The ruins are shaking more and more violently, and the snails attached to the surface are peeling off, layer by layer, as if shedding their skin. The city is collapsing or waking up, revealing its original colors and textures to people.
"Wait a minute, take a look at the sonar screen!" Chu Zihang's voice was a little solemn.
At this time, red dots began to appear on the sonar screen one after another, and each red dot was pulsating.
Each red dot represents a heartbeat. Hundreds or even thousands of things are awakening, not just an embryo!
During the initial scan, they thought there seemed to be a giant heartbeat beneath the city's ruins, but that was actually a misreading of the signal.
--There are countless things sleeping under the ruins, and there is only one heartbeat, because their heartbeats are completely synchronized!
"Damn..." Caesar opened his mouth, "Where is this place, the Dragon's Nest?"
"Look at the bloody one in front of you..." Lu Mingfei said stumblingly.
Layers of waves rolled up on the lava river not far away. The viscous rock solution flows extremely slowly. The waves more than ten meters high can be shaped in the water for more than ten seconds, and then the shape of the waves collapses. Hundreds of tons of
The calculated magma slapped on the magma river again, and the light of the lava flourished, illuminating every corner of the ruins.
And as the ruins shook, millions of snails fell off, along with sticky blood. What was exposed was not the icebreaker they had imagined before, but an indescribable alien object.
It is a hundred meters long, half of it is inserted into the seabed, and the other half is wrapped in layers of snails. What is exposed on the ground is the color of lunch meat, densely covered with structures similar to tendons and fascia, and is slightly squirming.
The snails use their mouthparts to bite into the body of this giant creature and continue to eat, mate and reproduce. Shocking wounds were opened on its surface, and the remaining snails can be seen tightly sucked deep into the wound.
.
"I..." The word was stuck in Lu Mingfei's throat because he bit his tongue out of fear.
"Is it an embryo?" Caesar was stunned.
If it was still in its embryonic state and was over a hundred meters long, wouldn't this ancient dragon be several kilometers long when it becomes an adult?
The snails falling like a rainstorm blocked their sight, making it difficult for them to see clearly.
"No, it's the Lenin." Chu Zihang said: "If you look carefully at the seabed, you can see the traces of it falling from a high place."
With that thing as the center of the circle, the building collapsed in circles, indicating that it indeed fell to the seabed at an alarming speed and weight, triggering a shock wave.
Its exposed part is more than 80 meters long and more than 20 meters wide, vaguely shaped like an icebreaker.
But its appearance has been completely changed. Anyone who sees this thing at first glance will mistakenly think that it is a giant creature rather than a sunken ship.
"This thing is still moving!" Lu Mingfei was stunned, "Isn't it an embryo? Is the icebreaker pregnant?"
"The sunken ship was occupied by the embryo, turning the steel into a part of it!" Chu Zihang said.
They looked closely and saw traces of blood vessels in the steel that was not covered with flesh!
Lu Mingfei said in a trembling voice: "Is it going to eat the icebreaker and then evolve into a steel icebreaker beast?"
It's a pity that Caesar and Chu Zihang don't have the time to cooperate with his bad words.
"The embryo is dead." Gu Chen sighed.
"It's obviously still moving, its blood vessels are beating!" Lu Mingfei's eyes widened, "The baby dragon must still be in the cabin!"
"It still has vitality, but it can no longer hatch." Gu Chen whispered: "Someone killed it and used it as a sacrifice."
He couldn't tell what kind of mood he was feeling at this moment, the relief of a potential enemy disappearing? The joy of directly weakening the power of 'Loki'? Or, the sad sigh of a rabbit dying.
Lin Fenglong was right. Li Wuyue died many years ago, and the reborn embryo was used as a sacrifice to resurrect life under this giant underwater city.
Caesar pointed somewhere, "Look below."
From the observation port below, we can see that where the snails accumulate, the Lenin gave birth to thick blood vessels that penetrated the seabed. The blood flowed from the Lenin to the entire city, seeming to be the fountain of life nourishing this dead city.
As the shaking intensified, the seabed was cracking, and the black gaps were filled with sticky black plasma.
This is some kind of sacrificial bloody alchemy. The dragon's blood flowing out of the Lenin is irrigating this ancient city that has been dead for many years. Takamagahara, where gods once lived in mythology, is awakening!
"It's so sad." Mai Shutoku stood on the top of the Trieste and sighed silently, "The king who is so high above us is just a bloody sacrifice in front of the more powerful king."
She released Mingzhao, left the Trieste, and swam towards the wreckage of the Lenin.
Gu Chen's eyes followed the figure that deceived his eyes.
The bathyscaphe was less than 200 meters away from the wreckage of the Lenin. Mai Shutoku was swimming as fast as a swordfish. She reached the side of the Lenin and floated close to the hull.
Flesh-red tentacles protruded from all the portholes, as ugly as the granulation sprouting from a wound.
This dragon was deprived of its brain in its embryonic stage. Now it is just a sacrifice bleeding with dragon blood. Depending on its bloodline, it will not completely die, but will only continue to grow and continuously transfuse blood to the city.
The Dragon King, who was once aloof, is now no more than a placenta that provides nutrition.
…
The sea was windy and rainy, and Yuan Zhisheng climbed to the highest point of Xumizuo.
Searchlights from all directions shone on him, and everyone's eyes turned to him. Thousands of raindrops reflected the light, and his long black windbreaker danced. Yuan Zhisheng seemed to be standing in the rain of light.
"Gentlemen!" He looked around, his voice spreading far across the sea.
"Please!" He bowed deeply.
He should have said some exciting words of oath, but suddenly he didn't want to say anything. It was all too heavy and almost crushed him.
The history of the eight Sheqi families, the underwater city where gods are buried, the ambition to eliminate the fierce ghosts, and the ideal of ending violence are all on his shoulders at this moment.
Ying walked behind him and said, "A 3.2-magnitude minor earthquake occurred in Jiyuan, and the Divine Burial Hall is awakening."
"The ancestors are really not completely dead." Yuan Zhisheng sighed, "They have not wanted to come back to the world all the time these years."
"It's impossible for this kind of thing to happen. We have made complete preparations." Sakura said, "We still have Miss Eri."
Yuan Zhisheng nodded slightly.
Sakura: "Norma is constantly calling Princess Kagetsuki, who is using various methods to disguise herself during maintenance. In a short period of time, Schneider can't determine what happened, but he will always react."
