A loud thunder suddenly exploded in the dark deep sea. This thunder brought light to the deep sea, but it also brought a trembling force that most of the deep-sea monsters had never felt before.
At this time, Shang Chong's level could be advanced to Earl at any time, so the lightning he released spread directly to a horizontal area of more than 500 meters in the sea with him as the center.
Therefore, none of his friends who were holding the rope with him escaped, and all of them felt the pain of being struck by lightning.
Fortunately, everyone's physical fitness is quite strong now. Although it feels painful to be electrocuted, it will not cause them to turn over on the spot like the innocent sea creatures in the distance.
No one was able to move for three minutes, but everyone's mouth was busy.
Everyone cursed the culprit for as long as they were electrocuted.
Shang Chong regretted it immediately after he lost control of himself and tried to save himself. He was not a "leak fish" in compulsory education. He was just tied too tightly and almost suffocated. There was also a strange thing stuffed in his mouth. He was so shocked that he could not control himself and just acted in self-defense.
In fact, his defense is effective!
That is, let everyone be paralyzed and stand like a statue for three minutes with him.
Oh, no, not all of them were electrocuted and unable to move——
The power of the electric shock was completely absorbed by Boss Lin Yuan the moment it came into contact with him, before it could cause paralysis. It was as if he himself was an extremely deep black hole that could swallow up energy, and all energy was unable to play a role in front of him.
Now, with the protection of the ten fierce beasts, Wu Xiangwang was not afraid of the electric shock in the sea water. Except for the fact that he was paralyzed by the powerful current for about ten seconds at the beginning, his body immediately returned to normal.
Mengwu Qiangqiang said that all physical damage will be discounted again and again in front of it, and if it cannot be killed in one blow, it will become stronger!
The water bears were completely disdainful. If the water bear bloodline bonus was activated, they could be paralyzed for three seconds at most and then killed.
Therefore, Wu Xiangwang and Lin Yuan were the first to be able to move freely in this deep-sea thunder. Although Wu Xiangwang cursed Shang Chong several times, he immediately rushed towards the deep-sea monster that was also paralyzed by thunder and lightning and was counting "eight" in the dark.
Thanks to the illumination of the "Deep Sea Light", Wu Xiangwang could clearly see the strange, now crumpled mass. After seeing it clearly, he couldn't help but gasp, thinking that Shang Chong's sudden discharge was quite wise.
It was a weird, overly large octopus.
The diameter of its round, bald head alone is probably more than ten meters, not to mention its tentacles, which are thick, strong, and very long. Even though its tentacles are all curled up together now, they are still such a huge ball, stretching out for at least twenty to thirty meters.
This is not the point. The point is that this strange giant octopus has many soft small suction cups with barbs on its tentacles. If Wu Xingyun and Monk Chong are sucked by these small suction cups and do not let go, they will probably be sucked dry in no time.
Wu Xiangwang narrowed his eyes, wondering what level the core of this strange giant octopus was, whether the octopus tentacles were poisonous, and whether they would taste chewy.
In this case, it would not be appropriate to use the abilities of the Aedes albopictus or the giant-toothed ant. The former would suck the octopus dry, and the latter would smash it into a pool of mud. It would be better to use the attack abilities of the jellyfish and the poisonous cone snail.
Just poison this weird giant octopus until it can't move, then take it and eat it raw by slicing it.
Then, the strange giant octopus, which had just recovered from the inexplicable click, with anger mixed with a hint of disbelief, saw a human coming in front of him, then raised his hand to him with a smile.
"?"
"I heard you want to join us?"
Weird giant octopus: “.”
Don’t you stupid humans understand what this joining means?
"Then we sincerely invite you to join us!"
Weird giant octopus: “???”
He couldn't understand with his big brain, why did these humans really want to treat him as a traveling partner?
This might not be the stupidest person He has ever eaten!
However, the dumber a person is, the more he can eat!
"So, I'm eighth?"
The weird octopus was stunned for a moment, then tried to stretch out its tentacles to attack cautiously, but suddenly it felt something prick its tentacles, and then the whole octopus became useless!
"Oh! Damn humans, what have you done to me, the king of the deep sea?!"
Wu Xiangwang smiled and took out a longer and stronger rope, tying it around the neck of the strange giant octopus, where its head and tentacles met. "Don't get so excited! We sincerely invite you to join us! But you can't be ranked eighth. With your size, such strong and powerful tentacles, and bald head, you should be ranked first!"
Is there anyone more suitable to be a rickshaw puller in the sea than you?
Five minutes later, a strange giant octopus with a jellyfish lamp on its head, a drawstring around its neck, and an explosive bomb attached to its core dived down obediently with an expressionless face and a look of despair.
Well, He did join the team.
But He never expected that He would join in this way!
Sure enough, today the old turtle told him that he'd better stay in his nest and not go out, otherwise he would be in bad luck. He didn't believe it and now he regrets it.
If God gave him another chance, he would definitely not choose this group of human adventurers to eat!
Unfortunately, the huge and strange octopus has now become an octopus horse, and is grunting as it pulls Wu Xiangwang and the others down.
"Hehehehe! I never thought a giant octopus pulling a cart would feel like this! Besides being a little unstable, it's actually pretty smooth."
"And we didn't need to find other rocks or tools to help us dive down. Being pulled by the weird octopus really wasn't hard at all."
"Amitabha, this is just walking into a trap. This monster must have this calamity in his fate."
"Don't make me laugh to death. It's not just this monster that's destined for this disaster, it's all deep-sea monsters that are destined for this disaster, right? Forget about that nonsense, let's just see if that octopus leg is edible. We've been diving for over two hours, and I'm starving. A piece of raw octopus, purified with the purification stone, will surely be delicious!"
The weird giant octopus who accepted his fate and pulled people: "???!!!"
Are you humans being unreasonable? Asking me to be a free driver is already too much, and you're actually trying to eat my legs!
"Don't go too far! I can't lose any of my eight legs! Not even one!"
Wu Xiangwang tugged at the rope and smiled. "Zhang Zhang, the most important thing about being a fish is knowing how to make choices. At least you're still alive if you lose a leg, but if your core explodes, you'll be gone too."
"Or do you vow to live and die with your legs?"
Weird Giant Octopus: "...Um, well, if you eat it sliced raw, it would be even better with some chili."
Wuuuuuuuu ahhhhh, when He was short of money, He would sell His legs and each leg would get a hundred energy coins, Wuuuuuuu!
It was such a waste for him to come out today, such a waste!
So everyone cut up a large octopus leg and prepared for lunch. Originally, there was no place to eat lunch, but Wu Xiangwang first used his insignificant presence and his pet turtle as a table. Then, he suddenly had an idea and tried a better method -
After two hours in the sea, Luo Luo Wang Wang finally remembered his portable snail shell hut!
After a wave of fluctuations, the gorgeous snail shell hut inlaid with at least dozens of gems appeared in the deep sea. Because the hut had always been pulled by a car seat on land, Wu Xiangwang almost forgot that his snail shell hut was actually a "hut in the sea" that was rampant in the ocean!
When the snail shell house appeared, the little friends all showed expressions of extreme surprise on their faces. Even the weird giant octopus swam around the gorgeous snail shell house twice, and then the look in his eyes when he looked at Wu Xiangwang became strange.
So is this human being a human being?
Why did he have abilities that only conch-clan monsters possess? You have to know that those conch-clan monsters are all shell-showing maniacs, eager to show off their own conch shells that can be used as homes to all sea creatures every day, and whenever they see them, they will compare whose shell has the most energy gems embedded in it.
The weird giant octopus looked at the snail shell with dozens of energy gems of level four or above, and thought that this shell would probably dazzle most of the weird conchs, right?
A human being has such a gorgeous shell. I really want to see the expressions of those conch monsters when they see this shell.
But it is obvious that He does not have this opportunity at the moment.
With the snail shell hut that can exist in the sea and the strange giant octopus pulling the house, deep-sea diving to the Ocean City becomes easy and smooth.
Just leave one person outside the house to watch the octopus and make sure it doesn't play tricks, while controlling the direction to dive down. Everyone else can live happily in the Snail Garden Villa.
This snail shell hut pulled down by the strange giant octopus has become a beautiful scenery in the deep sea. Most of the strange fish have magical expressions when they see the giant octopus and the snail shell.
Soon, many sea creatures heard the sound and came to watch the octopus pull the shell. However, they were scared away by the angry giant octopus or simply rolled it up and ate it.
After the strange giant octopus dived down for three days, it pulled the snail shell hut to a dark and deep underwater forest.
When He pulled the snail shell hut here, dozens of human adventurers had already gathered in front of the forest.
They were obviously the last wave of human adventurers who entered the ocean earlier than the group of human adventurers on the shore and were most likely not hunted down or attacked by the giant blue water scallops and did not need to buy blue water beads.
At this time, dozens of human adventurers were preparing to enter this underwater forest, and they were arguing over which team should be the first to lead the way.
From the time they entered the sea until now, they have been diving and walking in the deep sea for thirteen days before reaching this underwater forest. During these thirteen days, each team has lost at least two companions. Almost since the second day, they have been hunted by the monsters in the sea. They are exhausted by the time they get here.
"Anyway, our team will never lead the charge again! When we first went into the sea, we were at the front and encountered a strange school of piranhas that seriously injured four of us! Where were you then? You all ran away faster than the other! No matter what, we won't lead the charge this time!"
"Captain Zhou, you can't say that. Didn't we lead the charge later? We were leading the way from the fourth to the eighth day. Four of you were seriously injured by the piranhas, and our Joseph was even eaten by a two-headed man-eating shark... We're three teams now. As you say in the East, we're all on the same boat. No one can escape."
The one who spoke was a blond white adventurer. The expression on his face was not pretty, but at least he didn't make a big noise.
"Anyway, we have the fewest people and the most mutations. We definitely won't move forward. The worst that can happen is we'll just stay here. My strange characteristics have already appeared. I've been in this world for over nine months. I could become strange at any time. The worst that can happen is I'll just be an alien."
So the team with the smallest number of people just gave up and lay down, looking very much like the semi-weird human adventurers in the Exiled City.
The three teams of dozens of people were arguing when suddenly the adventurer on guard saw a strange giant octopus coming from a distance with a lighthouse on its head, and an unclear pagoda-shaped object being dragged behind the octopus.
The three teams on the scene were frantically warning:
"Get ready! There's something weird! A big weird thing is approaching this way!"
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!!"
"Boss! I saw a weird octopus. Damn, we're out of food! We must kill this octopus and eat its legs!"
The strange giant octopus approaching from afar subconsciously twitched its legs. If it weren't currently restrained by someone, it would have definitely eaten the human who was clamoring to eat its thigh first!
Then, the extremely nervous human adventurers prepared to fight the strange giant octopus. However, as the strange giant octopus got closer and closer, the expressions on the faces of these dozens of human adventurers suddenly became subtle.
"That's a bit strange, Boss. This octopus seems to be... missing one leg, and the other leg is particularly short. Could it be a disabled fish?"
Will there be any side effects from eating this kind of fish?
"This giant octopus seems to have a rope tied around its neck. What's that thing it's pulling behind it? Is it... a large conch shell?"
"Hiss! It's not an illusion. I just saw a human figure appear on the octopus's head! No, it's more like a strange shadow. Could this weird giant octopus be some other weird mount?"
How powerful would it be to be able to catch this weird giant octopus?
"...Boss, they're getting closer. Shall we fight? Strike first and gain the upper hand!"
Just as the three captains were struggling with different expressions, the window of the snail shell suddenly opened and a human head emerged from it.
"Everyone! Don't be so nervous, we're all on the same page! We're adventurers heading to Ocean City, too!"
None of the dozens of human adventurers believed it.
"This human is disguised."
"Tsk, maybe it's a big weirdness of the earl or even above the earl level. Level 6 ability users, please move forward. There are also adventurers who can break the illusion, please break this illusion."
"This is hilarious! How could humans possibly have a snail shell space that can be used to pull a cart and live in the sea? Who do they think they are? Are they the Wu Xiangwang wanted by the Bloody Wanted Order? Hahahaha!"
The last person to tell a joke was the human adventurer whose legs had turned into two fish tails. As he said this, he instantly jumped in front of the disguised human adventurer who opened the window, and was ready to stab him with the long knife in his hand!
Everyone else also started to act at this time!
This incoming monster is very dangerous no matter how you look at it. If you don't say anything and just attack directly, their chances of winning will be much higher!
Shang Chong, who leaned his head out of the snail shell window, was stunned by the dozens of human adventurers who rushed towards them without saying a word. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart that this was the quality of the super elite adventurers who had passed through the seven main cities and were able to enter the central area!
No fuss, just do it!
They are all great people indeed.
But in this case, he has to use his ultimate negotiation move.
So, when dozens of adventurers had surrounded the strange giant octopus and the snail shell hut, there was a loud bang and a crack!
Purple lightning lit up again in the dark deep sea, once again causing countless tremors!
"Oh my god! What the hell is this attack?"
"Electric electric electric eel?!"
"Electric eel, weird! It's thunder! Thunder, thunder, thunder, thunder-type, nature-type adventurer!"
"Damn it, they're really one of us!"
"But what kind of idiot would release electricity in the deep sea?!"
Everyone was frozen in place by the electric shock and trembled slightly. At this time, the strange giant octopus, which was already accustomed to the electric shock, rolled its eyes and tentacles ungracefully and slowly fell to the ground.
He's been shocked every now and then these past three days, and he's become immune to it. Next time! As long as he's still alive! He's going to eat all the electric eels, rays, and fish that can discharge electricity!
It took a full five minutes for the adventurers to recover from the state of electric shock stiffness.
At this time, Wu Xiangwang and the other nine people had already walked out of the snail shell hut.
Wu Xiangwang keenly noticed that among the dozens of adventurers, several of them had their eyes lit up the moment they saw Master Wu Er and Taoist Zhang San.
It was as if he had seen them before.
Wu Xiangwang took a look and saw their particularly obvious strange state, and guessed their identity.
This can be considered as a former comrade-in-arms.
All those present were elite adventurers, and the strangeness of those semi-weird adventurers was soon discovered by others, so soon everyone's eyes changed when they looked at Wu Xiangwang and the others.
"Fuck! We can go buy lottery tickets now."
They really encountered the team of the bloody wanted criminal Wu Xiangwang!
Now, anyone who doesn’t hug those golden thighs would be a fool!
Don’t forget each other: “…”
The changes in expression on the faces of these elite adventurers were so obvious, and thanks to the worldwide broadcast of Scarlet Notice, he was recognized at the first moment.
"Boss! 99!"
"Heroes! We are your lovely neighbors and friends!"
"Dad!! My child is a good eater, a fighter, not afraid of hardship or fatigue, and can even tell jokes. Let's take him through this dark forest!"
Wu Xiangwang looked at this group of elite adventurers, whose lowest level was four and whose highest had reached the seventh level, Earl, and felt deeply worried about the bottom line of mankind.
But in the end, he could only roll his eyes elegantly: "Then we'll take the lead, and you just follow."
Suddenly, the adventurers who were arguing before were all smiling.
"Boss, you're awesome! 66!"
"Long live friendship! Heroes are invincible!"
"Dad! I'm really good with a knife. Would you like some thinly sliced octopus leg sashimi? I can cut it into flowers for you right now!"
Shang Chong took a closer look at the weird adventurer with a crocodile tail growing on his butt, and really wanted to throw a thunder ball at this guy alone.
How could there be someone in this world who is so shameless as to claim to be his father besides him!
Wu Xiangwang once again felt that these elites were all fake.
Fortunately, among these dozens of elites, there are still some who look aloof and reliable, and are particularly disdainful of flattery and compliments. Wu Xiangwang looked at them with satisfaction, then packed up his snail shell hut and stood in front of this black underwater forest.
Oh, the weird octopus that pulled the cart was released temporarily, but half of its core was swallowed by the Nine Thousand Years Old Turtle. After that, this weird octopus became the Nth little brother of the Nine Thousand Years Old Turtle. Let it go first, and maybe we will need it to pull the cart later.
Wu Xiangwang looked at the black forest and turned to look at their chief data analyst, Lao Wang.
Wang Xiao twitched his lips. "According to the information I found earlier, there is a necessary route to Ocean City called the 'Deep Sea Maze Tomb'."
"I previously thought the Deep Sea Labyrinth Tomb was probably an abandoned maze building in the deep sea, and it would be extremely dangerous to travel through it."
"But now it seems that the deep-sea maze tombs refer to this underwater forest before us. In the face of the ultimate nature, any man-made structures are superfluous; nature itself can form incomparably magnificent architecture."
Wang Xiao's voice was clear and calm, but he was describing shocking wonders that were beyond human reach.
Let me formally introduce this "Deep Sea Maze Tomb"——
This is a huge underwater forest growing 10,000 meters below the sea, with an average tree height of 100 meters and a diameter of more than 20 meters.
If you have no idea what a hundred meters is, then the tallest tree on Earth is only 156 meters, which is equivalent to a 52-story building. So this underwater forest is like a 52-story building.
Wu Xiangwang stood at the entrance and looked into the forest. He could not see very far, but he could observe countless dark shadows of underwater creatures moving through the forest, and there were also hills and sunken black underwater lakes in the forest.
The sea trees in these underwater forests grow straight up, with no branches or leaves at the tips, only a sharp trunk like needles rising from the seabed. However, at the bottom there are large branches and leaves that can block the view, like an umbrella covering the eyes.
Every giant underwater tree here looks almost the same. In addition, the seabed is dark and quiet. Even if every human adventurer carries a fluorescent flashlight or other lighting tools, they cannot distinguish the differences between trees when looking at the forest in front of them with the naked eye.
"...This really deserves to be called the 'Deep Sea Labyrinth and Tomb'. Won't you get lost once you enter here? And if you can't get out, won't you die here?" An adventurer couldn't help but complain.
"Those sea creatures in Ocean City are hoping that all the monsters and humans who come to their city will die, right?"
Just looking at it, it seems difficult to get out of this cemetery forest, which is why the adventurer teams previously blamed each other.
"Right now, the most obvious dangers in this forest are getting lost and strange attacks. We might also need to pay attention to the forest itself... So I suggest we take some measures to bind ourselves together. It's best to act together and not get separated."
Wang Xiao's suggestion was recognized by everyone.
So the original small group of nine people became a large group of dozens of people, and each team also had its own small group. The special ability ropes and marks did not affect everyone's actions. After everyone had two or three ropes and marks, everyone felt a little more relaxed.
Then, Wu Xiangwang and Lin Yuan were the first to step into the forest.
It was clearly only a step from outside the forest to inside the forest, but the moment Wu Xiangwang stepped into the forest from the bottom of the sea, he felt countless malicious prying eyes coming from within the forest.
The feeling of being stared at by countless different eyes made one's scalp tingle, and Wu Xiangwang even faintly heard the cries of ghosts.
“…This really is a graveyard of death.”
It seemed as if the entire forest was filled with unwilling dead souls.
Everyone felt the unease rising from deep within. Captain Zhou, who had the most players, warned directly, "Everyone! Calm down and concentrate! Don't let your emotions fluctuate too much at this moment! The strange situation here seems a little strange."
Everyone responded in low voices, trying to remain calm and follow the main group.
Wu Xiangwang didn't know how to leave the underwater forest, but Jiu Qiansui told him that as long as he kept walking in one direction, he would be able to get out of the forest.
This is a very simple method that every human and monster knows to get out of the underwater forest.
It’s just that few people can leave in a straight line.
But Wu Xiangwang and Lin Yuan, hand in hand, walked on a straight path.
If nothing goes wrong, they will be able to walk out of this underwater forest in more than a day.
However, accidents still happened.
"?! Katherine what are you doing! Are you crazy?!"
Everyone turned their heads at this moment, and Qian Bao directly threw out a flare.
What everyone saw were two human adventurers fighting each other.
Before anyone could figure out what was going on, three more people with strange expressions used their abilities on their companions!
"Fuck! Could they be possessed by a ghost?!"
"But why are we okay?"
"Oh no! Knock Catherine out! She's going crazy and getting weird!"
Wu Xiangwang immediately looked at his friends. The master and the Taoist priest were chanting, Wu Xingyun was holding a mushroom in a daze, and Wang Xiao was looking around with the help of his glasses. Everything seemed fine.
The ones who seemed to be most vulnerable to invasion were Shang Chong and Qian Baole, but Wu Xiangwang found that these two people were arm to arm with a determined look on their faces.
Then, Shang Chong touched his arm with his fingers and gave himself an electric shock.
"Everyone, if you feel unsafe, come closer to me! No evil can possess me! Electric shocks can drive away evil spirits!!!"
Don’t forget each other: “…6.”
It looked like he didn't have to worry about his team members at all.
Could they be the Guijianchou team?
