Chapter 191 Getting Thicker Skinned



"Chichi, chichi?" Fugui opened his paws that were covering his face and secretly looked at Zhongli Tingzhou.

Gao Han saw it looking at Zhongli Tingzhou cautiously, wanting to go over but not daring to, and almost forgot that this little guy used to be the one who stuck to Zhongli in black the most.

This time when Zhongli in white disappeared, the aura of the two people was also different, and it must have been able to feel it.

Fugui didn't understand why the annoying creature in front of him suddenly changed into his favorite former host, even though they looked exactly the same.

It particularly likes the scent of its previous host. Now that it sees the person right in front of it, it feels anxious. It wants to go over, but it's afraid that he will turn back into that annoying guy. If it doesn't go over, it'll feel itchy again.

Gao Han rolled his eyes in his heart and stuffed it directly into Zhongli Tingzhou's arms.

Fugui was originally hesitant, but after feeling the aura of love from Zhongli Tingzhou, he immediately abandoned all his principles.

No matter what, it was the current host who threw it over, not it that took the initiative. It hugged the clothes of the previous host and rubbed them happily.

Zhongli Tingzhou tore it off with disgust and was about to throw it away when Gao Han's warning sounded in his ears.

"If you dare throw it out, I will throw you out."

Zhongli Tingzhou glared at Fugui and said, “You little bastard, you got it badly.”

Put it on your shoulder and catch up with Gao Han immediately.

"Since these devouring eels have already run away, why should we go down here if we don't go up?"

"Now that we're down, there's nothing to lose by taking a look. And if I'm not mistaken, the swallowing eel should be a deep-sea creature. Why would it appear here?" This is what Gao Han cared more about.

In fact, he had another purpose for coming to the main disaster area this time, which was to investigate the cause of the mutation in the main disaster area.

According to historical records, the main disaster area was the first place on Earth to mutate, and then it radiated to other places.

Uninformed humans may not care much about the reasons for the mutation in the main disaster area, but Gao Han, who knows that the earth will be destroyed in the future, has to pay attention to this.

If we cannot find the cause and allow the current situation to continue, within a hundred years, the Earth will disappear in the long river of history. Will the human beings on Earth, including them, disappear together?

Gao Han didn’t know, so he could only do his best to check the situation in the main disaster area.

Zhongli Tingzhou originally looked nonchalant, but he straightened up after hearing his words, "It's the same as what I thought. I'm also curious as to why deep-sea creatures would appear inland."

The place where they were standing now was strictly speaking still inland.

Gao Han glanced at him but didn't expose his words.

The two swam deeper and deeper, and the surroundings became brighter and brighter.

There seemed to be something sparkling below, some of the light balls were very bright, and some were slightly weaker.

Gao Han did not rush forward. "This distance should be more than 1,500 meters deep. If we go further down, it may exceed the deepest inland lake recorded on Earth. It's very strange. If Muluo Lake was this deep back then, it should have been recorded."

But Muluo Lake doesn’t even make it into the top ten.

"It's quite strange." Zhongli Tingzhou smiled, "What's even stranger is that we've reached such a deep place, but the things down there are still glowing. It's like..."

"Something is deliberately luring us down."

Gao Han also discovered it.

Zhongli Tingzhou said with interest in his eyes: "Yes, no matter how strong the light is, it can't penetrate that deep, unless when we move, those things also move, and when we stop, they also stop."

Gao Han was still a little confused, "But we can't see what the glowing thing is now, so how can it be sure that we will chase it?"

Zhongli Tingzhou raised his lips slightly, "This is what I like most about you. You look serious and smart as if you know everything, but in fact you don't even know some simple common sense. Those idiots below will never guess that you don't know that the crystal core will glow underwater."

Gao Han: “…”

Gao Han took a deep breath and said, "If you don't want me to beat you up, shut up now."

Zhongli Tingzhou made a zipper motion with his mouth, which would have been more convincing if he hadn't smiled.

Gao Han was too weak to say anything more to him. He forced himself not to think about anything else and said, "So the brighter the crystal core, the higher its level, right?"

Zhongli Tingzhou liked the fact that he was extremely smart, but would get confused about simple common sense.

"Then what do you think are the levels of those crystal cores below?" Gao Han asked again.

"Conservatively speaking, it should be above level seven and below level twelve."

It is equivalent to the cultivation level of a third or second-class spirit cultivator.

No wonder they dare to use these crystal cores as bait, if they are level ten, level twelfth or level twelve crystal cores, they will make a fortune by taking them out.

Not all humans are greedy, but there are always some who are. They use these crystal cores to attract batches of humans to die.

Gao Han did not react to the crystal core. Instead, he stroked his chin and thought, "We killed those Devouring Eels before. It is impossible for them not to know our strength. Since they still dare to lure us down, it means that they were just the first batch. The truly powerful ones are still down there."

"We are getting farther and farther away from the water. Once we enter their territory, they will probably start a massacre. If we are trapped in their encirclement, it will be difficult for us to escape."

"My wife's analysis is really sharp. I think so too." Zhongli Tingzhou really wanted to applaud, but he was afraid that Gao Han would hit him again.

Not knowing what was going on down there, Gao Han suddenly didn't want to go down. What if there were mutant creatures with strength equivalent to that of a first-class cultivator? Wouldn't he be going down with Zhongli Tingzhou to die?

Even if Zhongli Tingzhou's strength could break through to the first level, this is an underwater world of mutated deep-sea creatures. Their combat power is bound to be stronger than that on land, while humans' will be weakened.

"Forget it, I won't go down." Gao Han decided not to go down again.

"Don't you want to go down? Why don't you go down again? Are you worried that I, baby, can't beat them? Don't worry, baby is very strong, even stronger than me after I lost my memory." Zhongli Tingzhou patted his chest and said with great confidence.

Gao Han glanced at him and said coldly, "Can you please stop calling yourself a baby?"

Zhongli Tingzhou blinked, "Why? Baby is feeling miserable."

"Because I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself and take action." Gao Han stared at his face.

Zhongli Tingzhou slowly covered his face, "Hate it, I know I'm handsome, if you want to pursue me just tell me, I will cooperate with you."

"I was wrong." Gao Han admitted his mistake decisively and changed the subject: "How did you know I wanted to go down?"

Zhongli Tingzhou said with a smile: "Because we are in tune with each other."

Gao Han decisively ended the conversation, "Let's go, and come back when we are stronger."

Zhongli Tingzhou glanced over his shoulder and said, "I think this black rat has something to say. It may have some ideas."

Gao Han said in surprise: "What can it do?"

Zhongli Tingzhou brought it forward and said, "Don't forget, it's also a mutant creature. Maybe it can see or hear something."

"Chirp, chirp." Fugui was very satisfied. He thought that the previous host understood me the best. He seemed to have forgotten that he hated the previous host so much before.

"Can the language of animals and the language of fish be understood?" Gao Han asked.

Fugui said: "Chijiji." Of course not, but we are not communicating through language, but through sound waves.

Zhongli Tingzhou translated: "It said yes, they are all mutant creatures."

Gao Han looked at him suspiciously, "Do you understand what it says?"

Zhongli Tingzhou said modestly: "I understand a little bit, a little bit."

Fugui was a little conflicted, but he liked the scent of his former host and was afraid that if he objected, the former host would not let him stay on his shoulder.

"I'd never trust you." Gao Han has been with Fugui for a few months. Now he doesn't have to rely on guessing to understand his expression like before. Besides, the confusion in his eyes is already obvious.

Zhongli Tingzhou chuckled, "Well, although my translation may be wrong, I can't deny that it can understand fish language."

Gao Han snorted, "You react pretty quickly."

Zhongli Tingzhou continued to be modest, "Young lady, you are too modest. I dare not."

高寒举起手。

钟离庭洲立刻改口,连一秒停顿都没有,“小公子。”

“我有个疑惑。”高寒说,“你这次恢复后,脸皮怎么越来越厚了,难道每次失忆都在磨炼你的脸皮吗?”

钟离庭洲认真地思索了片刻,“大概我知道,你比以前更爱我一点了?”

“……”高寒继续看着湖下面,“走吧,别再磨蹭了,富贵指路,那些吞噬鳗多虽多,但这个湖底似乎很大,先把它们甩开。”

钟离庭洲觉得他是个特别体贴的绅士,决定不揭穿男朋友僵硬转移话题的行为,搂住他的腰说:“那你准备一下,我要发力了。”

高寒立刻把他肩膀上的富贵拿下来,同一时间,两人的身影化为残影,在湖泊底下迅速的穿梭起来。

等下面的吞噬鳗发现,并想追过去的时候,已经晚了。

没过多久,这些吞噬鳗就失去了它们的目标。

高寒从来不知道,在水里也能有这样的速度,“这是什么速度?”

“极光闪,只有我一个会的特技,在陆地上更快。”钟离庭洲说。

“我相信。”

高寒将晕乎乎的富贵举到跟前,“富贵,接下来该往哪边去。”

富贵趴在他手上,两眼还在晕,只能伸出爪子指着一个方向,好在它不是靠眼睛看,而是靠感知,这是它感知到的,音波最弱的方向。

高寒把它放到胸前的口袋里,让它歇息,和钟离庭洲赶过去。

有钟离庭洲的极光闪,还有高寒的防御阵器,两人再往下,也不怕动作施展不开,或被深海的压强压死。

不过,高寒也感受到,随着他们越往下,阵器的能量也消耗得越快。

为了抵抗海底的压强,不得不用抽取更多能量。

歇息够的富贵从高寒的口袋里,利落地爬到钟离庭洲的肩膀上。

养了它几个月的高寒心中不是滋味,它果然更喜欢戏精。

富贵举起一只爪子,示意他们停下来。

两人居然都看懂了,但是接下来,富贵在比划什么,他们一个也没有看懂。

富贵比了半天,发现他们居然都不懂,便有些着急,越比划越乱。

“行了,需要东西辅助吗?”高寒头疼的揉了揉太阳穴。

富贵眼睛一亮,立刻点点头,需要需要,特别需要,宿主太蠢,它也没有办法。

‘太蠢’的高寒取出几十颗灵珠。

富贵满意地点下头,开始进行属于它的演练。

一会拨拉这边几颗灵珠,一会拨拉那边的灵珠。

几分钟后,它看着高寒和钟离庭洲,懂了咩?

钟离庭洲眨了好几下眼睛,转向高寒,“你懂了吗?”

这么傻的演练,谁他妈看得懂。

高寒说:“大概懂了。”

钟离庭洲脸不红,气不喘:“哦,我也懂了。”

高寒挑眉,“是吗,那你给我说说,它都说了什么?”

钟离庭洲眨眨眼,张口就来:“它说前面有一堆敌人,敌人分成一二三四五六批……”

高寒一听开头就不想再听了,“打住,不懂咱就别装懂,我又不会歧视你,之前我也让它用同样的方法,有经验了才知道它在讲什么。”

钟离庭洲嘴硬道:“谁跟你说我不懂了,只是每个人的理解不同罢了。”

“好,我不想听你吹牛逼,说正事,”高寒正色道,“前面有一群变异吞噬鳗,数量其实也不算多,只有上百条,它们应该是奉命看守在那里。”

钟离庭洲也不开玩笑了,“什么地方需要派这么多吞噬鳗看守啊。”

之前攻击他们的吞噬鳗,也才几十条。

“不知道,富贵还说那里离吞噬鳗的大本营有点远,就算打起来,一时半会也不会有援军,或许我们可以试试看。”高寒说。

“那就试吧。”钟离庭洲无所谓地耸耸肩。

两人悄悄地潜行过去,有阵器隐匿他们的气息,前面的吞噬鳗并没有发现。

靠近了才看到,这些吞噬鳗都守在一个洞口前。

一个三米不到的洞口,却派了百条实力不弱的吞噬鳗看守着,哪怕笨蛋也能看出不对。

高寒估摸了一下它们的实力后,制定了一个击杀的计划。

为了防止太快泄露信息,他和钟离庭洲各自拿着一个阵器,钟离庭洲绕到对面去,再由高寒开启阵器,将百条吞噬鳗,和三米不到的洞口笼罩起来。

等吞噬鳗发现不对的时候,它们已经被困住了。

两人同时冲出去。

钟离庭洲的速度比高寒快,钻进吞噬鳗群里,大开杀戒。

湖底太深,看不到染红的湖水,却能闻到水里的血腥味,向外扩散,被透明的防御阵拦住了。

之前有准备都不是他们的对手,这群没有准备的吞噬鳗,死得更快。

搞定最后一条吞噬鳗,高寒来到三米不到的洞口前。
