Bright red strips of sticky substance leaked out from under the shriveled human skin, including exposed white bones.
And on top of the throne-like pile of human remains and the glass walls of the aquarium, there sat a crimson octopus of unprecedented size.
The main part of the octopus, that is, its head, is located above the pile of debris, with three pairs of eyestalks arranged on both sides of the skull.
And on the back of the head, there is a pair of underdeveloped young wings. It is even a bit funny to have such wings behind such a huge body.
As many as twelve tentacles hung lazily down along the pile of human remains.
In addition to the huge suction cups on the back of each tentacle, there are sharp claws on both sides that can be retracted and moved as slowly as breathing.
And these tentacles are like pipes almost covering the ground.
If they were all stretched out, they would be enough to wrap around an entire tanker!
Such an unrealistic picture is reflected in everyone's eyes without any disguise.
"That...is Keshira?"
After a few seconds of silence, Akai Mutake was the first to issue an uncertain question.
But no one answered at the moment.
An octopus with such a huge body is completely different from the octopus in human common sense. It also has that eternal evil aura radiating from the inside out. The answer is obvious.
Except for a few organization members on the ship, the reason why no other crew members and security personnel were encountered was also found.
They all turned into the skeleton throne in front of them.
The crew uniforms and body armor buried among the blood, flesh and bones are the best evidence.
This also shows from the side that the conventional weapons and equipment carried by these people cannot kill Ksheela.
"We still have C4 bombs up there."
At this time, Akai Shuichi reminded him at the right time.
"Well, now this is the only way..."
Just when Shuichi Akai turned around and wanted to go back to the upper floor to get the bomb, Belmode suddenly stopped him.
"Wait a moment."
"Look over there..."
Under Belmod's instructions, everyone once again looked at the Skeleton Throne that they couldn't bear to look at.
Under the throne, two figures can be seen in the hill formed by the accumulation of debris.
One of the figures was an acquaintance of several people, Qin Zhibo.
Opposite him stood a naked woman who seemed familiar.
"It's Rumi Wakasa!"
Conan recognized it immediately.
Akai Marie frowned and asked in confusion: "What are they doing there?"
The two people in the center of the mountain of bones seemed to be preparing for some indescribable behavior.
The woman named "Wakasa Rumei" moved very gently and was taking off the clothes on Qin Zhibo's body.
Qin Zhibo just stood there with his eyes wide open, silently accepting this.
This situation immediately left several people scratching their heads. In order not to disturb the giant octopus, they could only retreat to the third deck to discuss countermeasures.
…
Returning to the third deck, Conan and others explained the situation on the lower deck to Furuya Rei.
When he heard that Qin Zhibo was being taken off his clothes by the organizers, Jiang Guling's first reaction was that Qin Zhibo was being coerced.
But when he heard Conan add that the coercer was a naked woman, Rei Fukiya also fell silent.
"No matter what, if you want to kill that octopus, you can only use bombs..."
"We will plant the bomb first, then rescue Qin Zhibo, and then detonate the bomb."
Akai Muwu immediately formulated a combat plan.
But as soon as he finished speaking, Elena Miyano, who was tied next to her, suddenly spoke up.
"It's useless. Xila will not be killed by a bomb of that magnitude."
"We once used atomic bombs to bomb Keshira's lair, and it only caused some minor injuries on Keshira's body."
"So it's useless..."
Mary turned to look at Elena and asked, "Is there any way to kill her?"
Elena raised the corners of her mouth slightly and shook her head lightly.
"There is no way."
"She is the daughter of Cthulhu, one of the great Old Ones, and what people often call the 'god'."
"Is there any way for humans to kill gods?"
Conan took a step forward and asked with a serious expression, "Who is Rumi Wakasa?"
"She is also a Ksheela, but in human form."
"Xila has a very strong ability to mimic, and can even imitate human physiological structures."
"Wakasa Rumi is the anthropomorphic body he created by imitating me for a long time."
When everyone heard about Rumi Wakasa's origins, they all showed shocked expressions.
Especially Haibara Ai, she also understood why Rumi Wakasa easily defeated the second-in-command of the organization, Rum.
During the period of brainwashing on the ship, she learned that the active ingredients of the APTX series of drugs were actually tissue extracts from Xila and deep divers.
This drug can greatly strengthen the human body, but it also has a high probability of triggering deep dive syndrome.
Therefore, STK’s targeted drug project “Silver Bullet” is vital to organizations.
The organization's boss once approached STK's controller Walter Marsh Sr. for cooperation, but was rejected.
Therefore, the organization sent the Miyano couple to join Baijiu Pharmaceutical to steal the research results of the "Silver Bullet" project.
The new drugs developed in conjunction with the "silver bullet" are more stable and will almost never trigger deep dive syndrome.
But just like the sequence of the drug itself, Xila itself has an extremely high sequence and can control the person who takes the drug.
Conan lowered his head slightly, thought for a few seconds and then raised his head and asked.
"Why are you suddenly willing to tell us?"
"I just want you to understand that resistance is useless. Giving up resistance and accepting all this is the only way."
Elena turned to look at Haibara Ai again, with a hint of pleading in her tone, "Shiho, I have transplanted most of Miyano Akemi's memories into Wakasa Rumi's brain. Even the boss doesn't know this."
"She will regard you as her sister. As long as you wait until the new world comes, you will gain supreme power. By then, you can do whatever you want and fulfill any wish..."
"Do you understand, Shiho?"
"I'm doing this all for you!"
Hui Yuan Ai stood there, her low bangs covering her eyes.
"But my only wish is to resurrect my real sister, is this okay?"
Hui Yuan Ai's voice had a hint of crying and a slight tremor.
"I don't want anything, I just want my sister..."
"Can it be done?"
Elena looked slightly startled, staring at her daughter, and did not answer for a long time.
…
At the same time, Qin Zhibo on the other side was experiencing the most difficult battle between heaven and man in his life.
