There was dead silence in the dark sea.
Few people know... No, or no one knows at all, Fang Zheng himself actually has a little fear of the deep sea. It's strange to say, he obviously has no reaction to space. But facing the ocean, especially this deep sea, Fang Zheng always feels fear instinctively.
After all, no one knows what will suddenly appear in front of you in the depths of the sea... Well, for this reason, Fang Zheng decisively activated Masail the moment he left the battleship and turned into the Angel of Death. Of course, this might be a waste, but in this way, Fang Zheng can also obtain Masail's characteristic of not being attacked.
Well, although turning on invincibility when playing horror games does not reduce the sense of horror, at least... it can make you feel a little more at ease.
After transforming into the Angel of Death, Fang Zheng's vision also changed. At least he no longer had to worry about something suddenly popping out from beside him while he was swimming...
This is it.
Looking down, Fang Zheng soon saw the crack under his feet that was thirty meters wide in diameter. Although he was invincible now, Fang Zheng still hesitated for a moment before swimming towards the crack.
After all, being invincible doesn’t reduce the tension when playing horror games!
"I feel more and more like I'm in some fucking horror game, now I just hope I'm not playing Cthulhu or Deep Freeze."
Fang Zheng easily entered the cave after passing through the cave wall. He grumbled in a low voice while carefully observing his surroundings. There were countless forks in the road. If any diver came here, he would probably get lost inside and would not be able to find the exit until his oxygen ran out. Fortunately, for Fang Zheng, who had activated the invincible wall-penetrating mode, this was not a problem. He just had to keep going down...
Because of this, it didn’t take much time, or less than half the time it took to visit Ji, and Fang Zheng saw the magical light and the sparkling spirit crystals flickering on the other side of the cave.
but……
"...Ah, it's really terrible when you play a horror game and you know that there will be an event happening ahead but you don't want to go but have to go anyway."
Looking at the cave entrance in front of him, Fang Zheng couldn't help but hesitate. Although he was now in invincible God mode, but... forget it, he had come this far, so he might as well bite the bullet and continue on.
While muttering to himself, Fang Zheng walked into the cave in front of him.
Just like the video footage that Tan Ji played before, this was a very large open-air spiritual crystal vein. Looking around, almost from the floor to the top of the cave, there were densely packed spiritual crystal ores of various kinds, and the soft glow emitted by these spiritual crystal ores was almost connected. Because of this, if you don't look carefully, you will definitely not see the dark cave hidden behind the light... This is also the reason why Tan Ji was attacked before.
So far, Fang Zheng has not sensed any signs of life here, which makes him quite confused. According to the previous video footage, isn't the monster hiding in these passages, waiting for the enemy to divert attention before launching an attack? How come he can't sense any breath of life at all now? This is unscientific. Masail is the Angel of Death, and is most sensitive to the breath of life and death.
If there is a breath of life here, it is impossible for me not to feel it at all.
Anyway, let's try it first.
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng looked at the spirit crystal in front of him again.
If I remember correctly, Tan Ji was attacked by the monster when she touched the spirit crystal, so I might as well try it myself.
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng reached out and gently touched the spirit crystal ore in front of him.
When Fang Zheng placed his finger on the spirit crystal ore, he felt a weak wave of magic emerging from it. This was not surprising to Fang Zheng. The characteristic of spirit crystal ore was that it would emit special magic waves when touched by living matter. This was also the reason why spirit crystal ore was used as a catalyst for many magic weapons and equipment props - those crude and simple magic props could be activated by holding them in one's hand, and they could be thrown aside when not in use without worrying about accidentally activating themselves. It was impossible for an organized magic army to equip you with all legendary equipment, so this kind of magic catalyst that could be used to make standard weapons was of course the best to use.
But soon, Fang Zheng discovered that the situation was not so normal.
I don't know if it's because the quality of the spirit crystals here is too high and therefore too sensitive, or if there are some other reasons, but Fang Zheng clearly just touched the spirit crystal ore, and the next moment a resonance occurred, causing the magic fluctuations to quickly spread around, and in the blink of an eye Fang Zheng felt that all the spirit crystal mines in the entire cave began to burst out with strong magic fluctuations!
It was like a room filled with wind chimes, and I just touched one of them, and all the wind chimes started to shake, and burst into a huge sound like a bronze bell!
"Oh my god!"
Seeing this scene, Fang Zheng was also shocked, but what surprised him even more was that at the same time as the magic power fluctuations erupted, he suddenly felt a strong vitality suddenly emerge from all directions around him, and then the next moment, Fang Zheng saw several tentacles quickly rushing out from the cracks and caves covered by the spirit crystal veins, rushing towards him! Instantly piercing through his body!
“Well done!”
Fang Zheng was certainly not afraid of the opponent's sneak attack. He drove Malthael to defend against this. Therefore, facing the sneak attack of these tentacles, Fang Zheng did not dodge or evade. He just raised the Scythe of Death in both hands and swung it down with force!
“——!!”
The storm of death erupted instantly with Fang Zheng as the center, sucking the tentacles in. Soon Fang Zheng saw those originally dark and thick tentacles begin to become thin and withered, and then quickly turned into ash and disappeared into the sea.
“Done!”
Looking at the scene in front of him, Fang Zheng snapped his fingers proudly.
I told you, no matter how powerful the sea monsters are, they are just living creatures. In the face of death, all they need is a sickle. I don’t believe that there is nothing that a sickle can’t solve... Oh my god!
But before Fang Zheng had the chance to show off, he was surprised to feel the same powerful breath of life emerging from the caves around him again. Then dozens of tentacles emerged from the cracks and caves again and pounced towards Fang Zheng!
Are you kidding me? I'm not dead yet. Is the Death Angel Soul Stone I'm using fake?
Fang Zheng's body was pierced by these tentacles again, but he remained calm. He raised the Scythe of Death and hooked and pulled the tentacles that were inserted into his body. Soon, as Fang Zheng raised his hands and followed his movements, the shadows of several tentacles emerged - those were the souls that were hooked by the Scythe of Death.
Then Fang Zheng pulled hard, and the next moment those souls rolled and were sucked into Masail's cloak, disappearing without a trace. At the same time, these tentacles broke and dispersed again, turning into useless debris.
"Well, now it's time..."
Seeing the cave returning to peace again, Fang Zheng breathed a sigh of relief. But before he could finish his words, that feeling reappeared!
Hey, what the hell is this?!
Seeing the tentacles coming out of the cave again and rushing towards him, Fang Zheng was completely enraged. I can't kill you with the Angel of Death? Then you can taste the power of fire!
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng put away the Scythe of Death without hesitation, then summoned out a pitch-black greatsword and a silver-white dagger, and then stabbed hard at the tentacles in front of him!
The pitch-black sword immediately pierced through several tentacles in front of it, and then nailed them to the ground. Then, bright red flames exploded and burned, spreading in all directions!
The power of the soul's first fire is certainly not something that ordinary seawater can resist. Fang Zheng's soul's first fire had just erupted not long ago, and the seawater in the entire cave had already been completely boiled, and even made a gurgling sound. If Fang Zheng hadn't been using Masail's soul stone at this moment, he might have been cooked directly! And those soul flames also quickly spread out along the tentacles. For a moment, the entire cave was like a boiling volcano. Fang Zheng could even feel the ground under his feet begin to shake, and waves of soul power entered his body along the first fire - but what made Fang Zheng a little strange was that the power converted into "firewood" was not as much as he thought, and it could even be said that the amount was very small. Calculated by Fang Zheng's current "appetite", this was at most the level of a chocolate bean.
Is this thing still a parallel import?
After he ran out of firewood to "burn", Fang Zheng once again took back the first fire of his soul.
"I shouldn't have asked this time... why the hell is he still coming?!"
Before he could finish his words, Fang Zheng felt the powerful life force reviving once again!
“This is no fun!”
The Angel of Death couldn't be killed, nor could the Soul Primordial Flame. Fang Zheng finally realized that this thing might be more troublesome than he thought, so he decisively gave up attacking again and flew out of the cave through the wall. Behind him, the tentacles were still chasing him, as if they would not stop until they pulled Fang Zheng back and swallowed him.
"This is going to be difficult! This guy won't let go once he's bitten!"
After escaping from the big crack again, Fang Zheng quickly returned to the battleship, then released his soul stone form and quickly gave Iona an order.
"Iona, evacuate at full speed!"
"Yes, Captain."
Hearing Fang Zheng's request, Iona nodded, and then saw the battleship rising at the fastest speed, and then flew away from the sea and reached an altitude of tens of thousands of meters. Until this time, the monster seemed to realize that it was impossible to catch up with Fang Zheng, so not long after, Fang Zheng saw the light spot representing the monster on the radar disappear quickly, and it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
“This is really troublesome…”
Leaning back in his chair, Fang Zheng couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
The Angel of Death couldn’t handle it, and he can’t even do anything about the First Flame of the Soul?
I originally thought that this matter could be easily resolved, but now it seems... the situation is much more serious than I thought.
