Dream No. 9
The sound of radio gymnastics exploded. This time, it was not directed at the tentacle man, the Dream or the huge monster on the seabed, but at all the security personnel.
Everyone was stunned and controlled by the radio gymnastics, seemingly not understanding what was happening.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The tentacle seemed to sense some kind of change, and it swept through the air suddenly and pierced into the hull of the Dream.
The pain scream of the Dream was as sharp as a long saw cutting on a blackboard, and it seemed that only Xu Wei could hear the sound. She covered her ears with one hand to block it, but felt something wet.
Blue blood oozed from her ears, nose, mouth and eyes. She didn't look like a human being to begin with, and now she looked even more terrifying.
Xu Wei put his hand down helplessly and continued to pull the trigger while enduring the severe pain in his head.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Gradually, I could no longer hear any sound.
Although the scene was extremely noisy - the sound of gunfire, the sound of waves, the screams of security personnel, and the noise of the sea monster, her world was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
As her flesh and blood were torn apart, another tentacle pierced out from behind Xu Wei. If she hadn't dodged quickly, she would have been torn into pieces like the flock of helicopters in the sky.
"What are you doing!!"
The first mate was covered in blue blood and had just crawled out of the huge hole. He yelled at Xu Wei angrily: "Who allowed you to..."
There was an instantaneous bloody hole on his forehead. Before he could finish his words, his body went limp and he fell back into the cave with his eyes wide open.
Under the influence of gravity, the clothes on his body corroded by blue blood fluttered, allowing Xu Wei to see clearly the body that was almost completely made of metal under the clothes.
Evil cult.
Mao Cheng once said that the more people who team up to enter a dungeon, the larger the dungeon randomly generated by the system will be, which also means there will be more other unfamiliar players.
When Xu Wei and his companions entered the dungeon, they didn't encounter any other players except NPCs.
This dungeon is not a group confrontation dungeon, so there is no need to fight for resources. What's more, the bracelet has a problem, and it is very easy to lose your life if you fight alone. If it were a normal player, he would have already found a group to complete the task as soon as possible.
Who would hide from other players until the final boss shows up?
Someone with ulterior motives.
Xu Wei had had suspicions for a long time, and now seeing this metal limb, he finally came to a conclusion.
In the amusement park instance, she had killed three cult members, whose bodies all showed different degrees of metalization. The first mate's body was so metalized that she suspected that he had a high status in the cult.
No matter what means the cult used, their identity in the dungeon was that they were sent by the authorities, and they had legitimate control of the driving seat without worrying about being discovered by the scattered players.
More likely, they entered the instance earlier and made arrangements in advance, thereby provoking a conflict between Howard and the players and advancing the instance process.
Before entering the copy, Ye Yan reminded her that the leader of the God's Descent Sect had successfully communicated with the "Lord" for the first time, and the cult might make big moves in the near future.
Their big move...
Somehow, Xu Wei suddenly felt a piercing chill from head to toe.
This chill comes from the fear of being just one step away from death. No, it is even more terrifying than death. It is the panic that the entire race - the human race - is about to face a catastrophe.
The biological instinct made Xu Wei's brain work rapidly.
Cults, dialogue with the Lord, dialogue that has never been had before...
Big move... What is the most important thing for cultists?
Xu Wei shuddered violently.
Coming.
Twenty years ago, the sea monster devoured part of the power of the "Ship God". According to the original plot of the copy, twenty years later, the sea monster still has the opportunity to further devour the "Ship God". This time, the cultists tampered with the route, speeding up the process of the sea monster devouring the Dream, and there was a "master" outside to interfere with the main system -
They want to use the sea monster that has swallowed up all of the Dream's power as a vehicle to bring the "Lord" down completely!
Suppressing his inner shock, Xu Wei retracted his gaze from the dark arms and feet, threw away the gun with the empty magazine, and picked up another one from the corpse.
Dressed as security guards sent by the authorities, she didn't let anyone escape from her music. At first, she would check whether the bodies were metallized, but after looking at dozens of bodies and not finding a normal human body, she gave up.
No matter who wins between the Dream and the Sea Monster, they can't save themselves and can't care about so much.
She threw the corpses into the blood hole one by one, trying to keep the Dream alive a little longer.
As he couldn't hear anything, Xu Wei could only point at the corpses and the giant arms that bound the Dream and shouted to Lu Fanye: "They are a cult! This thing is a dark cloud! We can't let it fully appear. If it really comes with the sea monster, it will be the end - not only this instance and us are finished, but the entire game and humanity are finished!!"
She couldn't hear her own volume and was gesticulating as she spoke, her voice extremely loud.
"I have to get to the broadcast room right now—"
“Ahem…”
As he was talking, Li Xia actually woke up, and he managed to sit up, looking around with a confused look in his eyes.
Lu Fanye helped him hold his back: "They should have other people elsewhere on the ship, go to the broadcasting room and be careful..."
Xu Wei stared at his mouth for a while, but found that he couldn't understand him at all. Time was urgent, so he turned around and ran away mercilessly.
Lu Fanye's gaze moved down to look at Li Xia who was leaning in his arms.
The latter covered his wound with a grin and said, "This is more comfortable. Let me lie down for a while."
Lu Fanye was sitting on a strange boat made of flesh and blood, with a sea monster's huge tentacles tightening the hull next to him. There were corpses and unconscious teammates lying all around him, and in his arms was a strange man who fell on him and covered his face with his hands.
He hunched over slightly, somewhat on guard.
Lu Fanye never trusted the other party, even though they had fought side by side when the City of Judgment fell.
"Are you curious about why I was inexplicably pestering you in the amusement park?" Li Xia said, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth.
Without waiting for Lu Fanye to answer, he continued, "Actually, I was almost at the end of a road at that time. I was a little helpless and often alone. No one told me whether this was right or wrong, and I had no one to talk to."
"Do you remember the guy who followed me? He fell off a roller coaster and died. He was the supervisor. It was because I didn't listen to his orders back then." He looked a little disappointed. "My father, mother, and brother all died in this game, one by one in front of me. I spent so much time to find them one by one, and then watched them die. Some died because of the dungeon, and some died because of the tricks played by other players. I really tried my best."
"When my brother passed away, he told me not to give up hope. There's always..." He suddenly shook violently and coughed up a large amount of blood. "There's always a chance to get out."
"Hope? I thought at the time that if everyone died with me, I would have no home even if I could get out. I envied those players whose parents and sisters were not awakened. Why would they still have hope..."
Lu Fanye's eyes followed the blood that had just flowed out of the corner of his mouth. The blood flowed from his jaw and soaked his collar: "So you joined the cult?"
"Oh?" Li Xia was very excited, with hope in her eyes. "When did you guess that? You didn't kill me? Was this all planned by you? Including everything now?"
Lu Fanye shook his head: "If you hadn't said it just now, who would have known."
"Oh wow!" Li Xia cheered for herself happily, but the hope that suddenly emerged in her eyes dissipated again. Against the backdrop of her pretending to be happy, she became even more silent and lifeless. "It seems that I am not suspicious at all."
He wanted to laugh a few more times, but his limbs suddenly twitched violently as if they were electrocuted, as if there were invisible people in the air dragging his limbs all over the place.
Li Xia howled a few times, then grabbed Lu Fanye and used all his strength to squeeze out a few words from his clenched teeth: "This is part of God's descent. All, all believers must...Ah! Kill me, kill me quickly!!"
He looked very painful, his eyes were bloodshot and swollen, and some dark and disordered lines began to spread on his face.
As if he was using willpower to open his backpack, he scattered all the props on the ground.
"All of these are yours, kill me now!" He roared as if he was going crazy. His face swelled up and the skin on the surface began to break.
"Hurry! Hurry!"
Li Xia wailed in extreme pain, but her face showed fear.
He didn't seem to be afraid of death, but he was afraid of what his death would bring.
"Number Six, I didn't expect you to really betray me." A voice came from a distance.
As soon as this voice came out, the pain in Li Xia's body eased, the trembling of his body stopped, and he gasped heavily.
The noise of the two giants fighting each other gradually stopped, the wind stopped, the waves subsided, and even the two huge tentacles retracted into the water.
Lu Fanye looked up and his pupils suddenly contracted.
Under the blazing sun in a clear blue sky, there is something more overwhelming than the sun.
The raised flesh knot stretched as far as the eye could see, and seemed to extend even farther than where the sea and the sky met. When that thing poked out of the water, the light instantly scattered in all directions, and the ship slowly sank, even causing the sea level to drop a few degrees.
That boundless thing from the abyss actually crawled up from the bottom of the sea.
As it gradually rose and was eventually taller than the mountain, the dense spherical structures on the top of the flesh knot reached straight to the sky, as if they were going to pierce through the sky and extend into the more distant universe.
The sun was completely blocked out.
A deadly chill came over me.
Kneeling on this giant flesh knot was the missing third mate. He had always been hiding behind the first mate and rarely appeared in the players' sight.
Li Xia stared at him intently: "I didn't expect you to come, number one."
The third mate smiled and said, "This is the time of the Lord's coming. How can I be absent?"
He stopped talking nonsense with Li Xia, raised his hand and grabbed, and with a sound of breaking through the air, a strong airflow suddenly erupted around Li Xia, smashing him straight to the ground. Lu Fanye was also thrown out, and he grabbed the nearby side of the boat tightly to avoid being shaken into the sea by the airflow.
"Go..."
Li Xia was lifted up roughly by a stream of air from the bloody hole in the Dream, and the blood on his head dripped down his cheeks.
"Hurry up, take Xu Wei with you...go..."
He was trembling with extreme fear.
