Chapter 462 Bone Pool

Skull Island, an area for second-level monsters, when the first ray of sunshine in the morning falls on the world, everyone looks a little tired despite having rested all night.

It was safe last night, a bonfire was lit and six people slept in batches.

Every four hours, two people will replace the previous night watchman to ensure nothing goes wrong.

It stands to reason that everyone present has received professional training. It only takes five minutes to close your eyes and fall asleep, but in reality?

There are no imaginary beasts on Skull Island at night.

It was very quiet that night, but this quietness made people feel uneasy because it was too quiet.

There wasn't even the sound of insects around, just the sound of gurgling water.

If they were a group of ordinary travelers, they would definitely have had a good sleep last night, but the problem was that there was no ordinary person here. Even Fitz, who looked like a rookie, was an agent recognized by S.H.I.E.L.D.

So everyone is panicking, because this silence means that there is a terrible monster entrenched here!

Therefore, no one dares to really sleep. Even if someone is watching, they can only maintain a half-dream and half-awake state.

The only good thing is that although I was scared all night, no accident happened last night.

After a simple wash, everyone couldn't help but look at the lake not far away.

After a night of scouring, the lake water no longer smells of blood, but traces of blood settling on the mud can still be seen in some dead corners where water cannot flow.

This is astonishing, and means that at some time before, a large amount of blood dyed the lake in front of him red.

There was a flash of hesitation in Jimmy's eyes, and he asked:

"Are you really going?"

Daisy was stunned for a moment. She had a good sense for Jimmy before. Perhaps because of the environment she grew up in, she liked the fierce glint in Jimmy's eyes.

So when she saw the hesitation in Jimmy's eyes, Daisy couldn't help but ask:

"Aren't you afraid?"

Jimmy ignored Daisy. He knew very well who in the team had the most words.

Just looking at Colson who was sorting it out, he shook his head helplessly: "I'm so stupid, it's useless to ask like this."

As if aware of Jimmy's gaze, Colson nodded to him with a smile and made a gesture for you to lead the way: "I'm ready and can act at any time."

Skull Island in the early morning is actually not bad.

At least it won't be as hot and irritating as it is at noon.

Passing through the outermost layer of bushes, there is a forest and grass as far as the eye can see.

A group of six little ants are walking along this ancient river.

Although the river has dried up, what about the huge pebbles and the patches of lakes that remain on the river bed?

Putting these together, it is not difficult to imagine how broad this river once was.

From bottom to top, we followed the tributaries to the source. During the process, we passed three large lakes, and everyone even found animal offal soaked in the water.

Soaked in the lake water, the bright internal organs glowed a disgusting white color, with traces of a large number of fish and shrimps gnawing on them.

Based on the normal rate of decay on Skull Island, Fitz guessed that the animal's death time should be between 72-84 hours.

But when everyone came to the fourth lake, looking at the scene in front of them, everyone couldn't help but turn pale, and even Simmons knelt on the ground and vomited.

At the source of the fourth lake is connected to the fifth lake.

A branch as thick as an arm blocks the entrance to the fourth lake from left to right.

This is not disgusting. What is really disgusting is that the branches are covered with dug out internal organs.

The heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys are all piled up there. There are flies and squirming white maggots on it, and it exudes a stench that reaches the sky. Does it remind you of the water you drank down there before?

Even Jimmy, who didn't care much, couldn't help but change a little more at this moment.

However, things don't end here.

"Crack!" There was a sound. Because too many internal organs were accumulated, the arm-thick branch finally failed to hold up. Under the squeeze of force, it finally broke with a sound.

The rapid water flow, the internal organs collided with each other, emitting a foul smell, and even carried wriggling white maggots. There were even many internal organs that had been corroded to a terrible state before, and now they were broken open.

In the blink of an eye, most of this large lake was covered with white maggots.

Daisy could barely hold it back before, but now?

Like Simmons, she knelt on the ground and vomited.

People are very strange creatures. If one person vomits, it is very likely that a second person will vomit. But what if a second person vomits?

There must be a third and a fourth.

Daisy vomited, then Fitz, Jimmy, Melinda, and even Coulson retched twice.

The most embarrassed person was Simmons who couldn't hold back from the beginning.

She had just recovered, but before she wiped her mouth clean, she was looking at the white maggots squirming on the lake in front of her, and the irritating smell in the air?

Her body trembled, and a large amount of gastric juice spurted out from her throat.

It felt like he was about to spit out the bile.

There's no way, it's too disgusting, it's simply challenging the limits of the human body.

But I have to say that each of the six people present is an elite.

Whether it is psychological quality or adaptability, they are extremely excellent.

Although I vomited violently at first, as I vomited, I gradually got used to the smell around me.

Going straight up the river, perhaps because the accumulated internal organs flowed downstream, the lake above did not look as disgusting as imagined.

But it was still a bit uncomfortable. After all, the internal organs rising and falling in the lake gave people an indescribable weird feeling.

This feeling made even the battle-hardened Coulson feel a little hairy in his heart.

But the further you go up, the less internal organs you get, and the lake starts to become clearer, until...

This is a large lake, irregularly round, and looks a bit like a stomach, but this is not the point. What really makes everyone's hair stand on end is that in this crystal clear lake, there are countless piles of of corpses.

The pale bones, without a trace of flesh and blood, just sank in the clear lake.

Although most of the bones were empty, as the water washed away, a black-red blood spread in the water, and then there was a set of internal organs that everyone had seen downstream, flowing out of the fleshless white bones.

There was deathly silence all around. There were no terrifying third-stage monsters, only this pool of bones and the dark red, bottomless lake water.

In the morning sun, the pool water reflected a double phosphorescence, making everything strange and strange.

An unprecedented chill filled everyone's hearts, and Jimmy's face became unprecedentedly solemn:

"The smell of blood has dissipated, this should be the scene of the first crime."

Frowning slightly, Melinda's eyes flashed with confusion: "So?"

Anyone who is not a fool can tell that this is the scene of the first crime. After all, there are so many fresh and uncorroded skeletons piled up.

But Jimmy's expression was a bit complicated: "A second-order creature called the Bull Demon originally lived here."

Coulson knew about the Bull Demon, a huge creature that was as tall as four or five stories high, so he took a deep breath: "What do you want to say?"

Turning to look at Coulson, Jimmy slowly said his guess: "A monster suspected to be in the third stage appeared here. It killed the bull demon, but did not eat it immediately."

But before Jimmy could finish speaking, Melinda looked up and said, "Use the smell of blood to attract more monsters. It requires a lot of food. Do you have any guesses?"

Jimmy didn't answer immediately. He looked at the dense tooth marks on the man's thick waist ribs, and an uncertain look flashed in his eyes: "Maybe it's some kind of ferocious octopus."

At first, he thought they were teeth marks, but judging by the size of the marks.

A creature of this size is not enough to kill so many powerful second-level monsters.

So he guessed that it was an octopus unique to Skull Island. This octopus was huge and had strong ankles covered with suckers that looked like teeth.

So he guessed that this was a third-level monster that was about to reach adulthood, and even the other party was in the depths of the lake at the moment!
