Chapter 836 Broken Skylight



The strong shaking nearly knocked all three of us off our feet.

If I hadn't been wearing my seatbelt, my head would probably have hit the drawer in front of me.

I quickly asked Lao Liu, and the first thing I thought of in this situation was whether there was something wrong with the ground.

For nearly half an hour, the ground was very stable, and I had complete faith in Lao Liu's driving skills.

At this moment, Lao Liu's eyes tightened, his hands gripped the steering wheel tightly, and the wrinkles between his brows deepened.

His eyes held a very cautious look.

He didn't answer me at first, but calmly continued driving.

Nearly two minutes later, we encountered several more small bumps, making the ride quite bumpy.

At this moment, Old Liu slowly spoke.

"I don't know what happened just now, but I felt something tapping on my car, I'm sure of it! It was a light tapping, or to be precise... a scraping!"

Old Liu's voice carried a hint of lingering fear as he leaned his entire body against the driver's seat.

That's a scraping sound? Could it be that the water flow outside is too strong?

That's impossible. This is a shallow layer where almost all the water flows slowly, meaning the water flow here poses virtually no threat to living beings.

Not to mention Lao Liu's taxi now, which has been running for many years.

Old Liu has been running around for so long, he definitely knows more than me. If he says it's scraping, then there really is something scraping!

Why didn't I hear it?

I turned around and looked at Yiyi sitting in the back row. She shook her head slightly at me.

"Lightning Strike Sword?"

"Master, it did seem like something was knocking on the car, but it was just a moment ago, so I didn't feel it very clearly."

The mention of the lightning sword made me even more wary.

Under normal circumstances, if I consciously try to perceive things, my perception ability is quite strong. For example, I can sense the creatures or inanimate objects in this thick fog. Although I can't know them all, I can at least get a general idea.

As for the Thunder Strike Sword, its true form is a sword spirit, and its perception is sometimes even slightly stronger than mine.

Back in the Beast God Temple, he was the first to sense something was wrong and he left the game running the whole time.

If he had chosen to speak then, I guess he would have been discovered and put in a completely passive position.

This time, Lei Jijian said the same thing, so it must be true; there is something there.

"Master Liu, drive slowly, don't..."

Sizzle!

Before I could finish speaking, I heard a crackling sound above my head!

The sound was like someone scratching metal with their fingernails; it was extremely piercing and made me feel very uncomfortable, even my scalp tingled.

Suddenly, I broke out in a cold sweat.

Old Liu quickly adjusted the steering wheel. "What the hell!" He continued to turn the wheel sharply, and with that, our car suddenly went out of control and almost crashed into an abandoned lamppost.

At that moment, I quickly looked up at the roof of the car, but when I looked through the sunroof, there was nothing but a white fog.

The scratches from earlier seemed to have vanished without a trace, as if they had never existed.

"Don't rush, safety is the priority! You drive the car first! Leave the rest to us."

I quickly gave Lao Liu a clear task. If he panicked at this point, all of us on the bus would be in trouble.

When that time comes, no matter how they die, it will definitely be terrifying.

I even kept thinking, if we flew off this cliff, how many pieces would our bodies be broken into, and how gruesome our faces would look.

If I were to lose my life here, I'd probably need someone with my skills to piece my remains back together!

When I thought about this, only one thought came to my mind: I can't die!

"This...it must be the wind!" Yiyi said softly to us, her tone filled with fear.

And I could clearly tell from her words that she was comforting herself, and also comforting us.

If it were the wind blowing, it definitely wouldn't be so sharp, nor would it make such a sound.

I know that as a major power in the manor above, the girl has more to offer and is definitely more willing to risk her life.

At that moment, she was definitely more worried than I was.

Naturally, she would be more cautious than I am.

I was just about to cut his hair, and if I argued with him at this moment, it would only make him more uneasy.

Rather than telling him the truth, it's better to put his mind at ease first. If something really happens, we are definitely not afraid.

However, it is only natural that in such an unfamiliar environment, who would want to face such unknown fears?

As I pondered, I nodded slightly.

"Oh dear, young lady, you've misspoke!"

Just as Lao Liu was about to interrupt, I quickly held out my hand and gave him a prohibition gesture that only he could see.

Old Liu remained silent.

And just now, before it was even over, I was about to turn around and tell Yiyi that it was no big deal.

But then that sound came again, like the wind blowing.

This time it was even clearer; I could clearly feel it was above the center of the car.

It felt as if something was slowly moving and scraping against the metal sheet, making a buzzing, slightly trembling sound.

"It's not the wind!"

Old Liu's voice was almost completely distorted at this moment, and he slammed on the brakes.

The car screeched to a halt.

"Is something up there?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than the sunroof made a loud crash, as if it had been hit!

Just then, a dark shadow flashed past the skylight. Before I could see what it was, a bluish-gray claw suddenly slammed down from the skylight!

Holy crap!

I felt extremely uncomfortable, and seeing this scene made me feel nauseous.

The claws were so thin they were practically just bones, with extremely sharp nails covered in that familiar yet disgusting pale green slime.

Holy crap, this is it!

I shouted it out almost at the same time, and when I looked at Yiyi behind me, she also looked very suppressed at that moment.

Without the slightest hesitation, the claw slipped through the sunroof and headed straight for the back seats.

At this moment, Lao Liu was so frightened that he dared not move. I even began to wonder if his foot was trembling as he pressed the brake.

Old Liu must have seen it out of the corner of his eye just as the claw came down.

I didn't pay attention to Lao Liu; at that moment, his claws were about to grab Yi Yi's hair.

"careful!"

I quickly said, and Yiyi noticed it at almost the same time, and she quickly dodged it.
