9:59, Island -03.
The group of twenty-one people concealed themselves in a hollow in the hill, holding their breath and listening to the long, faint chant coming from above.
Two mutated Beixun whales circled continuously above the mountaintop, their bodies bearing several obvious wounds.
However, compared to this insignificant wound, the members of the three Kyushu teams below looked much more disheveled.
Almost everyone was injured, and even Meng Danruo and Meng Yu, who were being protected at the rear of the group, were inevitably affected.
Fortunately, they managed to land on the island in time and conceal their presence, thus gaining a brief respite.
Chi Feng leaned back as Meng Danruo treated him. His chest was covered in blood, and there was an unusual depression.
During the first few minutes of the fight, he had several ribs broken by the Beixun Whale.
He frowned, remained silent, and calmly asked, "What's the situation in the region right now?"
Xingliu projected the footage she had captured: "Currently, 21 Beixun whales are known to have mutated, and two monsters have descended over the Zhumen base."
Everyone stared intently at the screen, their expressions growing increasingly grave.
"What exactly is this thing?"
The footage shows the direction in which the Zhu Men base is located.
On the main island, directly above the Nine Thousand Mile Tower of the Zhu Gate Base, two strangely shaped creatures floated.
It is a spherical object, with an estimated diameter of over 300 meters.
Directly in front, there is something that looks like an eye.
The huge eyes are round in shape, and the eyes themselves are made up of concentric circles of different patterns laid out on a light purple background with ravines and grooves.
Its entire body is dark purple, with red veins on its surface resembling blood vessels.
Encircling its largest diameter are tens of thousands of soft tentacles. The tentacles are a slightly lighter purple, floating as if surrounded by a purple halo.
It lowered its enormous eyes slightly, like a god descending to earth, looking at the world with a cold yet compassionate gaze.
It encompasses the sky above the Zhumen base, as if even the sun's rays are obscured.
“That’s all we can see. We don’t know the specifics of the base yet,” Xing Liu said.
He had just finished speaking when a shadow suddenly loomed over his head, and Li Jie, who was beside him, pushed him down.
Xingliu quickly held her breath and saw that the others had also pressed themselves against the ground or the mountainside, holding their breath and making no sound.
Above them, a Beixun whale suddenly descended and approached.
This is the other side of the corpse that has mutated. Getting closer, the visible signs of decay and the strong stench of putrefaction are nauseating.
It was clearly a pile of rotten flesh that had already died, but when they hit it, it was as if they were hitting an incredibly hard metal.
Two Beixun whales landed alternately, as if on patrol.
They have poor eyesight, but are extremely sensitive to the scent of living people; if you hold your breath, they will lose their way.
However, Hua Changle's pupils suddenly dilated.
The pupils reflected the approaching Beixun whale.
The living creature actually stopped, brushing against the rocks beside her, its enormous eyes fixed on her without moving.
!
Hua Changle was terrified, and broke out in a cold sweat!
What's going on?!
She held her breath!
The others were also quite frightened by what they saw, and stared intently at the scene.
Being so close, Hua Changle could even hear the sound of its eyeballs rolling around.
Hua Changle closed her eyes painfully: Aren't you leaving?! Are you trying to suffocate me?
"Waaah..."
With an unusual, short sound, Hua Changle seemed to sense something and turned his head to face the pair of eyes directly in front of him, the muscles around them suddenly contracting.
This is a harbinger of an attack!
A dark purple light suddenly shot out from the mouth of another Northern Whale.
"Get out of the way—"
Everyone suddenly fell to the ground in all directions.
"boom--"
The light landed like a giant cannonball, exploding with a deafening roar. The massive impact sent everyone flying back to the ground.
"Cough, cough..."
Hua Changle coughed weakly a few times, his body numb from the shock.
She struggled to her feet, panting, and as soon as she looked up, she was met with the Beixun whale, its mouth wide open, right next to her!
"Lele!"
Kulei, who was closest, was also injured and hadn't even had time to get up. He could only watch helplessly as the girl was about to be swallowed by the giant Northern Whale.
Hua Changle did not give up struggling, but just as she gathered a little bit of supernatural power, her source fluctuated again, and the supernatural power she had gathered immediately collapsed, and she fell down helplessly.
It’s over…
She closed her eyes.
"Bang—bang—bang—"
Suddenly, a series of thunderous explosions rang in my ears! The scorching heat burned my icy fingertips.
Hua Changle slowly opened his eyes and saw the Beixun whale being blasted away, its body still crackling with flames.
In front of her, a figure stood, blocking all the impacts; the figure seemed indestructible.
"You guys are amazing! You actually held on!" A clear voice rang out as Li Qingwan, with her graceful figure, folded her wings and landed steadily.
At the same time, Tie Chao, Li Hongxuan, Xuan Shi and others arrived.
"The reinforcements have finally arrived!" Qing Shu wailed, collapsing to the ground. "They really know how to time things perfectly..."
Hua Changle was helped up by Hua Yuezhi, who asked in a low voice, "Can you still hold on?"
Hua Changle nodded: "He won't die." Although his voice had already faded.
Hua Yuezhi and the others told them to rest for a while, then turned around and took off again.
"The sea monsters are about to land here. We must take care of these two before they surround us!"
Hua Yuezhi clenched his fist, and another burst of fire erupted from the body of the Beixun whale that had just flown over, accompanied by a mournful howl.
