When the magic flower blooms

"That... what the hell?"

Ming Ruoxing opened his eyes wide, and walked to Naga's side in two or three steps.The two of them leaned against the thick glass wall and looked out.

With the self-regulation of the pupils, the images in the dark depths gradually became clearer.

Ming Ruoxing took a breath, and habitually held Naga's hand.

"Is that... a cocoon?"

Although the truth is probably not that simple, at least from the outside, this description is quite appropriate.

It was an ellipsoid nearly three meters high by visual inspection. The upper part was slightly pointed and the lower part was oblate. The texture should be relatively soft, with slight undulations on the surface.

Not only that, it was still swaying left and right in place, obviously it was a living body.

Ming Ruoxing still wanted to see more clearly, so he narrowed his eyes and stared with bated breath.

But at this moment, the glass wall in front of him shook again.

"careful!"

He Tiansi quickly pulled Ming Ruoxing away from the glass.Almost at the same time, I saw a big lump suddenly bulging out of the ellipsoid, followed by another ear-piercing scream.

"Is there someone there?!"

Ming Ruoxing was absolutely right.And it wasn't until now that he saw it clearly: the slight undulations on the ellipsoid turned out to be human faces.

To be more precise, the ellipsoid itself is made up of individual skins.The ear-piercing scream just now came from the position of the face.

"What the hell is this?!" Even Naga showed a disgusted expression.

According to Yu Benxin, after the turmoil, the monster used by Chimera broke an iron chain and took advantage of the chaos to kill many people who were near it.When everyone was busy running for their lives or looking for cover, it quietly evolved into what it is now.

"This is definitely not its final form." Ming Ruoxing had an ominous premonition, "Camera really plans to sell this monster to the whole world?!"

"No, the seller is not Camera."

In the corner of the room, a man in a suit who had never had any sense of presence suddenly spoke.

He introduced himself as a staff member at the auction, and the work badge hanging around his neck clearly proved this.

He said that the real reason for the sudden suspension of the auction was the urgent notification from Camera.

The other party stated that they had just discovered the body of the representative sent to participate in the auction.This means that a group of traitors from the organization fled to the cruise ship carrying highly dangerous secrets in the laboratory.

And these traitors have two purposes, one is to sell the technological achievements at hand and make a quick profit.The second is to wait for an opportunity to engage in a big event on board.

"Camera said that those traitors took away a large number of zombie strains. These preparations were originally planned to be released in a small Southeast Asian country. They suspected that these strains had been released in the drinking water or food of the cruise ship. In this way, they may set off a small doomsday on this ship at any time..."

"But why did they do this?" Ming Ruoxing was puzzled, "Just to swallow the little gold and drugs carried by these people on the ship? Are you afraid that so many people will unite to hunt them down?"

"It may not necessarily be to hunt them down," Naga reasoned down his logic, "Think carefully, if everyone on this ship is dead. Who can prove what happened? Just based on Chimera's one-sided statement, Those organizations that have lost their brothers and lost money can let it go? They are all old foxes, so don't pretend to be little white rabbits."

"That's why Chimera came to report in such a hurry, because I was afraid that if the situation got out of control, this bad debt would be counted on it anyway." Ming Ruoxing seemed to understand something, "Chimera is no longer what it used to be. than, and even a male lion would not want to be an enemy to a pack of wolves."

"That is to say, those traitors not only want to reap the benefits, but also bite the Chimera back... This is really killing two birds with one stone. But they are brave enough, and they are not afraid of being caught by the Chimera and quartered."

"Maybe someone backs them up, maybe..."

Before the second "maybe" could be said, Ming Ruoxing was suddenly held down by Naga and fell to the ground.

"Everyone, lie down!!"

Such a sudden order made many people puzzled.However, Yu Benxin had already bent down first, taking cover behind the table.

Just a second later, the entire glass wall facing the venue in the vip room trembled again.And it was obviously stronger than the previous two times, with constant knocking sounds.

Along with the trembling of the glass, the terrible howling sound also arrived as expected.

The black voice hovered and echoed throughout the venue, like a dying angel, its wings set off a terrifying hurricane.

Ming Ruoxing was tightly protected by Naga, but he still heard the loud sound of glass shattering very clearly—the bulletproof glass on the entire wall, like a piece of extremely fragile rock sugar, melted into thousands of pieces in the air. crumbs.

After the sound of glass shards falling to the ground ended, he struggled vigorously to stick his head out.

Through the large floor-to-ceiling windows that were no longer covered, he saw that the huge "egg" in the center of the rostrum had a big opening, and a pale arm was slowly crawling out from the opening.

Then, the second arm, the third...

There are four arms in total, crossed and stretched out in a weird relationship that does not conform to the human body structure.They opened and widened the gap little by little, and then, the first head poked out from the "egg".

Without skin, it was a combination of muscles and bones.The eyeballs without the protection of the eyelids are moving very flexibly, obviously looking at the new world outside the "egg".

What's even more strange is that perhaps from the moment the "egg" cracked, the zombies all over the venue began to slowly turn to the rostrum.

Not only that, it seems that there are more zombies coming from outside.

"We can't get out." An unknown voice said in despair, "We are all going to die!"

"You don't have to scare yourself."

Naga immediately retorted: "We are staying on the second floor now. Even if the glass is broken, the zombies will not be able to climb up. Hurry up and find something to block the door!"

With the previous prophecy of success, everyone obeyed his order unconditionally.

Everyone worked together to block all the tables, chairs and cabinets in the vip room to the door, even the carpet was rolled up and pushed against the back of the door.

While others were busy, Naga and Ming Ruoxing continued to observe the situation of the monsters on the stage.

It was the kind of monster that wouldn't even appear in the darkest nightmare.

The hands and heads that first appeared at the breach turned out to be just the tip of the iceberg.Immediately after, what crawled out of the "egg" was a creature that could not be described in words.

Its appearance is a bit like a giant millipede, but the long and winding body part is actually composed of several people's torso cervical vertebrae connected back and forth.All the heads are concentrated on both sides of the "worm body", and the hands and feet have all become insect feet.

It's just such a monster that looks fragmented, but its movements are unusually flexible.It swayed and climbed out of the "egg", walked a few steps on the stage, and suddenly stood upright, climbing up the vertical wall.

"...we're in trouble."

Naga's worries are absolutely right-since the human insects can climb the walls, they can crawl all the way to the second floor along the walls and ceilings.

At that time, the VIP room will be like a completely open box, and everyone inside will become a turtle in an urn.

But even so, what else can be done?

Through a thin layer of walls, one could hear footsteps walking back and forth in the corridor on the second floor—the zombies who came from outside.

"Everyone, don't make a sound, quickly find a place to hide!"

When Naga gave an order, everyone acted immediately.But within a few tens of seconds, they all found a hidden location.

"Why are you not moving?"

Naga looked at Ming Ruoxing, "You can't deal with that monster, now you can only hide."

Ming Ruoxing didn't move: "I'm with you."

Naga knew that his intentions had been seen through by him, so there was only a showdown: "Someone must lure that monster away."

"Then I'll go." Ming Ruoxing volunteered, "I'm more agile than you."

"No, I have to do this."

Naga became serious, grabbed Ming Ruoxing's shoulder, and forced him to be pushed behind the table.

How could Ming Ruoxing let Naga face the danger alone.He was about to resist, but suddenly he hugged Naga's arm with his backhand, and pulled him to his side to lie down forcefully.

"Shh-!"

Following his gaze, Naga looked out from the gap between the tables and chairs, silently sucking in a breath of cool air.

That worm monster crawled along the ceiling!

The half-open VIP room was suddenly silent, but more than a dozen hearts were beating wildly in the chest cavity at the same time.

Fearing that Naga would run out impulsively to die, Ming Ruoxing clasped his arm tightly with one hand, while holding his breath, he continued to observe the movement outside.

The terrifying giant human bug has come to the front of the VIP room, and the distance is close enough to see the heads on it clearly.

The eye sockets of each head are empty, and the existence of eyeballs cannot be seen.But their mouths are all grinning, and a strange, fragmented, dying sound comes out of their throats.

Sounds like some sort of sound wave is used to identify objects ahead.

Everyone continued to remain motionless, holding their breath, listening to that terrifying sound, getting closer and closer to themselves...

At this juncture of dead silence, there was another loud noise, which burst out suddenly from another direction.

bang bang bang! ! !

It was a knock on the door.

Perhaps under the instructions of the human insects, the zombies wandering in the corridor suddenly began to slam into the door of the vip room frantically.It was as if he was certain that there was someone inside, so he mustered all his strength to break into the house no matter what.

Has it been discovered? !

Everyone was scared out of their wits by the loud banging on the door.Ming Ruoxing was also a little impatient.He lightly tapped Naga's chest twice, trying to communicate with his eyes.

But Naga's reaction boldly surprised him.

"Everyone, don't move!"

The man actually opened his mouth and gave a clear instruction: "If I'm not wrong, this big monster can neither hear nor see. It relies on sound waves to detect movement. Everyone calm down, we have not been discovered!"
