Chapter 642 Communication Between Octopus Legs

William woke up surrounded by octopus tentacles. In reality, he hadn't even gone to sea, but just stayed on the shore of the factory's swimming pool.

There is no rush to break free from the current state of being bound, so I have a 'friendly exchange' with Catherine,
"When did you dream? When I reached out to touch the water and observe?"

After William asked the question, a cold, pale woman's head slowly emerged from the tentacles of the octopus enveloping him. It was Catherine.

However, there is no ponytail or makeup, just like a head cut from a corpse.

"That's not right~ When you were trying to analyze the structure of the swimming pool, you started dreaming the moment you stared at the sea water... It's really not like you, William, you should be very mean and cautious, you shouldn't be tricked so easily ?

Moreover, I can clearly feel that you are very tired today, especially on the physical level. After falling into the dream, I didn't struggle but completely fell into it.

Could it be that before coming to my place, I went to find that pair of sisters to have a good time all day and was drained? "

"No, Mr. Rabbit is back~ I was invited to Rabbit Fairy Castle just as I was about to meet you for an appointment. Fortunately, I finished the training given by Mr. Rabbit before the end of today."

"It's no wonder that he smells of sweat. It turned out that he stayed with the rabbit. It's really good. He is favored by the boss and the second-in-command of the circus."

Catherine's head seemed to exist independently, sliding freely among the tentacles of the octopus, sometimes appearing on William's side, sometimes on top of her head, and sometimes between her legs.

"Catherine, did you call me here?"

"Huh? Don't you want to know me?

And you sent that parasite here, you really are selfish... Knowing that the [Clown House] is so dangerous, you actually let Nash risk being killed by Art to investigate me. "

"I just asked Nash to investigate you from the outside. It was his own choice to choose to go to the clown house."

"Okay, don't explain... You are best at using others, aren't you? Okay~ let's not mention that disgusting parasite for now, just thinking of his fake face that is disguised is disgusting.

The dream just now should have shown you enough information, right?
I didn't expect you to be kind enough to try to help the sisters.

It's just that I didn't expect you to have seen [Yuyuan], which made the subsequent dream extremely real, so real that you almost died in it. "

The voice just fell,

William felt a tingling sensation of objects being pulled away from his lower body,

The real purpose of those octopus tentacles floating up and down on William's body was to suck off the fish scales growing on William's body, because this was not Catherine's original intention.

It never occurred to her that William would have seen the source of fish.

This directly led to the "deep connection" between nightmares and memories, and derived an alternative and impossible nightmare branch. As a result, William, who was already tired and unprepared, was taken advantage of by the fish source created by the nightmare, and fish scales began to grow all over his body.

William didn't care, he could clean up this level of infection himself.

He cared more about some of the questions contained in Catherine's words just now, "Catherine, can't you completely control the nightmare?"

"Let me just borrow a word from a book about 'nightmare' - 'Nightmare is not governed by logic, and if it could be explained, it would lose its original interest.'

Nightmares are always there, and I just have a certain amount of control. Sometimes, for some reason, the nightmares will become chaotic and disorderly, and even I can't force it to stabilize.

By the way, how did you meet Yuyuan, can you tell me about it? "

Catherine, with her head resting between her legs, smiles as she waits for the story to begin, and if it contains fiction or dissatisfies her, William is subject to some sort of physical punishment.

"Probably so."

William directly expounded his experience during the gentleman's assessment in the form of a short story, named "Lake Town Fright".

The wonderful storyline made Catherine's eyes reveal her innocent look, completely fascinated.

Especially when William reached the bottom of the lake with a human body and touched the giant eye, she almost cried out,

"Fish eyes! This is Nazjatar's favorite experimental creation. There are such eyes everywhere in the arc sea, watching every corner...

You actually reached out to touch it with a human body, you really deserve it ~ William!It's so strong, so strong that people are reluctant to beat you. "

William used this topic to directly bring up one of the things he was most concerned about, "Catherine, you are also one of the experimental creations...or the only experimental creation that escaped from the deep sea."

These words directly caused Catherine to laugh crazily. There was even sea water overflowing from the dark mouth, and the tentacles were also floating back and forth inside.

"Haha, don't think of me as powerful as you~ I'm not the only one who escaped, but a group of them.

But in the end only I survived under the shelter of the circus, and the others were taken back. "

"So, you decided to 'jointly break out' in private?"

"It's not that easy~
The laboratory you see in your dream is just a scene imagined by your subconscious mind about the 'laboratory' impression combined with the keywords I gave,

The real submarine laboratory is several times more complicated than that, and it is impossible to escape.

Even if we really escape from the laboratory, as long as we are still within the range of the sea, everything will be controlled by the fish source.

The reason why we can escape from the arc sea is that the failure of a certain experimental project caused turmoil in the entire deep sea, and the source of fish was involved in it.

The deep-sea earthquake caused serious damage to the laboratory, and the container in which we were held was also damaged. The closed door was completely crushed, and a large amount of seawater was poured in from the top.

Even so, even if we got rid of all the control of the fish source at that time, only 2% of the sisters participated in the escape, and some of the remaining sisters even wanted to stop us.

The moment they set foot on land, many sisters thought they had escaped from the clutches and relaxed,
Only I have been running away, fleeing to the farthest corner and pretending to be an ordinary patient living in a small town.By chance, the circus happened to come to the vicinity of this small town for trial operation and talent recruitment. "

"One question, Catherine, since you are a 'runaway'...where did the source of the deep sea water that fills your current pool come from?"

"Well~ I'm a very cautious person~
I have been imagining how to escape from the laboratory and the sea a long time ago... I am also thinking about whether I will have adverse effects on my body if I leave the ocean for a long time.

When I was escaping, I stole a condensation device from the laboratory, which contained enough seawater to fill the current swimming pool.In case I feel unwell after living on land for a long time, I can use the sea water to nourish my body.

Unexpectedly, there is no discomfort at all, just taking a bath every night is enough.

I hid this thing in the depths of the cave behind the small town, and I suddenly remembered it not long ago, so I took it out.

But..."

Catherine deliberately paused, her head swam up between William's legs,
When it reached the abdomen, it was fully seen that Catherine had indeed separated her head, and the neck was moved by the slender octopus legs.

The head quickly came to William, sticking out its tongue with a suction cup to lick its chin.

"William, since you even choose to help those girls you don't know in the dream, would you like to do me a favor?"

"What are you busy with?"

"Help me bring some things back from my 'home'. Although I can still live normally without the help of the deep sea, in some respects, especially the deepening and development of the "deep sea disease" has become very slow.

Especially after I completed the pathway, my desire for the deep sea became stronger.

Help me bring back more seawater, and it is the kind of deep seawater source with extremely high pathogen content. If possible, take some "Octopus Essence", which can be found in the laboratory. "

"If you want me to die, just say it..."

"How could I be willing to let you die~ and no matter how we say it, we are colleagues.

Anyway, this is what I invited you to come over tonight to talk about. As for whether you do it or not, it is your own business.If you want to go, I can personally take you to the seaside and tell you some experience of entering the sea.

As long as you can help me bring back the 'specialty from my hometown', I will be at your beck and call from now on.

Even if you let me take a video camera and hide in the closet ahead of time to film your whole life with your sisters, or even the training with Mr. Rabbit, I will definitely cooperate and even participate in it~"
