The tunnel was dark, and after walking a certain distance, the two saw two or three corpses on the ground.

The sea was damp, and the corpse had been placed for an unknown amount of time, and it had begun to rot, and the stench was extremely strong—but they didn't put on any weird pilgrimage poses.

From the point of view of dress, most of them are interstellar mercenaries.Around them were scattered bandages, a damaged medical robot, and two bottles of disinfectant that had been dumped.

Long Shiyu asked: "Why did the mercenaries come here?"

"The mechanism of the tunnel here is old, and it is easy to crack. Sometimes they will come to rest under the tunnel for the convenience of robbing the tomb." Shen Chaomu looked at the corpse a little closer, "The part of the tunnel that is not open will take a long time. Someone patrolled once, but their bodies were never found before. And this wound..."

He identified them carefully: "Some are the wounds of water ghosts. They should have temporarily hid here after encountering water ghosts, and they were attacked while bandaging their wounds."

Long Shiyu said: "Could it be that the water ghost followed?"

"Probably not." Shen Chaomu said, "The fatal wound doesn't look like a water ghost. The bite marks of a water ghost are slightly uneven. If the wound is exposed to the air for two hours, it will rot and turn black. For example, this part."

He pointed to Long Shiyu: "Now the aorta of the neck has been cut open very smoothly. The attacker's weapon is very sharp, wide, curved, and as precise as a scalpel. There are two centimeters away from the end of the wound. A few bloodstains, more like..." He hesitated for a moment, "The scratches left by the barbs on the mantis sickle."

"Mantis?" Long Shiyu thought for a while, "I remember the alien mantis, only Villepin?"

"Yes." Shen Chaomu said, "There are only settlements in the sky. But why are they here..." He frowned.

The twin praying mantises walk with the blue whale in the air, and the settlement in the sky has never landed on the ground for a day.

Not to mention the ocean floor.

He let the drone quickly scan the area, and then the outpost said that it would contact the tunnel management personnel to come here to check the situation.

Lu Shanhuai muttered in the channel: "It was agreed to dive 300 meters, but I went straight into the undersea tunnel. Brother Shen, I shouldn't believe you."

"It's not the first day you know him. He has little chance of coming back after he gets off the boat." Yang Zhiming said, surrounded by noisy machines.He's still in the machinery room on the combat ship.

However, the people on board did not mention Long Shiyu's disappearance.

Long Shiyu explained to Shen Chaomu: "I told them to go back to sleep in the cabin."

"Didn't they suspect it?" Shen Chaomu recalled the moment when he saw Bread Dragon on the bottom of the sea, and faintly started to have a heart attack.

Long Shiyu looked sincere: "Why do they doubt me?"

Shen Chaomu: "..."

That's right, every time he saw Long Shiyu's expression, he couldn't help but believe it.

Long Shiyu pointed to a direction of the tunnel: "The breath of the strange beast continues to go there."

Shen Chaomu took two steps and stopped suddenly.

He heard... the sound of water.

The sound was not caught by the ears, to be precise, it was his mental power that heard the sound of the water

Shen Chaomu hugged Long Shiyu in an instant, flew up, and at the same time, the golden light gathered together, turned into several sharp blades, and stabbed down suddenly

The transformed sharp blade was five or six meters long, piercing the ground with ease, and something screamed and struggled under the sharp blade, writhing continuously.At the same time, part of the ground collapsed, and the black tide surged up

That wasn't sea water, it was just a wave made by strange beasts.Even part of the soil above his head collapsed, smashing tons of gravel mixed with soil.

Shen Chaomu used his mental power to protect Long Shiyu, and the huge mental power formed a semicircular barrier above their heads, and there were dull crashing sounds, and it blocked all the falling objects.He embraced Long Shiyu's shoulders, swept away the obstacles with his mental strength, and the two moved forward in a cloud of smoke and dust.

Shen Chaomu said: "That's why this area has been designated as a closed area, it's too unstable."

Long Shiyu was very happy: "Walking in the rain" has added another romantic incident with the princess.

Shen Chaomu: "...Your definition of 'rain' seems to be a bit off." He suddenly remembered something, "The 'rain' in your name can't be this rain, right? If it's a mountain collapse, it's quite suitable for you .”

Long Shiyu started to stare at him again.

I don't know how long it took before the collapse was completely over.

The two walked to a safe place on the other side.

"Are you okay?" Shen Chaomu asked Long Shiyu.

The young man in his arms looked up at him, his eyes were still black and clean: "No."

"...It should have been water ghosts just now. They didn't kill the mercenaries, but they really took the opportunity to follow." Shen Chaomu let go of his hand, "It's a swamp mermaid and a praying mantis. What's in this tunnel? Everything. It's so unnatural."

Water ghosts like to drag people into the water and drown them. When they appear, they will be surrounded by water tides. They must be the ones who made trouble underground just now.

Long Shiyu said: "Maybe it's because that strange beast passed by here not long ago, and the breath woke them up."

"Maybe." Shen Chaomu looked at the direction of the tunnel, and then checked the terminal, "But this direction is leading to the main island of Beien, why does the beast want..." He suddenly stopped, and switched to tactics Channel, "Lu Shanhuai, can you see if there is any situation on the main island?"

After a few seconds, Lu Shanhuai replied: "Not yet. What's the matter?"

"The alien beast that attacked the sailor may have gone in that direction. You inform the outpost on the island to be on guard."

"Okay." Lu Shanhuai clicked his tongue, "But when the main force of the sentry station is on the island... Wait, isn't that the purpose of it?"

"I hope not." Shen Chaomu said in a deep voice, "I can only hope not."

There was a noisy sound in the channel, and Lu Shanhuai went to inform other personnel.

Shen Chaomu and Long Shiyu looked at each other, and they both quickened their pace and walked deep into the tunnel.

After walking for about three to five minutes, the floor of the tunnel became wet, and several ferocious corpses of water ghosts lay on the ground with fresh wounds.Someone killed them just now, and the action was extremely crisp.

The wound left was very familiar. Shen Chaomu sensed the surrounding environment and rubbed his brow bone: "...this guy is actually here."

"Who?"

"It's just an old friend." Shen Chaomu rubbed Long's head, "Don't worry, he's not a bastard like Bai Yiyi, although he's not quite normal."

"How did your friend end up in the tunnel?"

"No one knows, including himself." Shen Chaomu said, "In this regard, he is quite similar to you, both of whom are of the Schrödinger school."

As soon as the words fell, a figure stepped out of the darkness.

The other party looked nearly 30 years old, and his face could be called delicate.Wearing dark green plush pajamas and holding a map in his hand, he looked like a tourist who just woke up, undressed and almost missed the tour bus - if it wasn't for the gray blood of the water ghost on the map .

His eyes lit up when he saw Shen Chaomu: "Oh my god, I have met someone I know."

Uther Green, one of the top contenders, has a pretty good relationship with Shen Chaomu.He is not human, but a descendant of a family of tricksters from a distant planet.

The population of that family is extremely sparse, but the life expectancy is nearly twice as long as that of humans.Uther is actually five or sixty years old, and looks only slightly older than Shen Chaomu.

This guy is also a legend in the association.Although Shen Chaomu and Bai Yiyi are also very casual, at least they can get in touch in an emergency.Uther can lose contact for nine months a year, and spends the remaining three months in the bar of Xingdu.

Yang Zhiming exclaimed in the channel: "Uther, who I relied on to live, appeared and my youth is over."

Lu Shanhuai was also very surprised: "It's amazing that these two phantom gods can meet at the bottom of the sea."

"Maybe this is the true meaning of the phantom god." Yang Zhiming sighed.

Bai Yiyi, User and Shen Chaomu are collectively referred to as the "chief three phantom gods" by the people in the association - Huan is the psychedelic one.The strength of the three is very outstanding and dazzling, each has its own strengths, and they are all unique in the history of the association, top-notch and unique.But they are all the strange ones among hunters: Yang Fengyin violates Bai Yiyi, the old Uther who has lost contact forever, and acted without authorization to sink the court.

There are wonderful things every year, especially this year.It was also thanks to Qiu Ruowen who was used to seeing strong winds and waves that she was not driven crazy by these three phantom gods.

Shen Chaomu said: "Why are you here? Chief Qiu has been looking for you for a long time before."

"That's right." Uther said, "I came chasing a strange beast, and I haven't looked at the terminal for a long time. Oh my god, it's over, she will definitely kick my ass with her boots when I go back."

Long Shiyu whispered to Shen Chaomu, "Why do I think his speech is weird?"

Shen Chaomu also quietly told him: "The common language of the alliance is not his mother tongue."

"Oh."

Uther said again: "Old man Shen Chaomu, you really saved my old life. I got lost here. I wanted to go to Beien Castle, but a passer-by showed me the way, pointing to this damn in the tunnel."

Long Shiyu said: "However, the tunnel and the castle should be in two directions. Now you are going farther and farther."

"Oh dear, yes, yes, I couldn't agree more with you."

Long Shiyu: "..."

Shen Chaomu said: "It's best if you come. There are strange beasts that seem to be fleeing to the main island. Time is running out, so hurry back to the outpost."

"This kind of thing happened?" Uther finally looked at the terminal, "Oh, it turned out that the association issued a warning."

They stepped on the body of the water ghost and headed towards the main island.

"Oh right," Uther suddenly remembered something on the way, "Here, I found an interesting gadget." He followed Shen Chaomu and took out a strange part from his bag. It is golden, and it looks like it has just been picked out of some kind of machinery. "After I hunted down the strange beast, I came to the main island to find the wreckage of the submarine and prepare to collect it. I heard that there are many rare models here."

Not only mercenaries, many people will also drive private submarines to Beien. They come from different galaxies and different races, and there are all kinds of people.The sea conditions in Beien are complex and changeable. When accidents happen occasionally, most people are rescued, and only the submarines are left to sink on the bottom of the sea.

"I found a lot of submarine cores," Uther showed the parts to Shen Chaomu, "but I swear to God, this is the most unique one I've ever seen."

"Go back and show it to Yang Zhiming and you'll know." Shen Chaomu said, "The premise is that you haven't lost contact suddenly."

They walked in the silent tunnel.

The subsea tunnel is extremely old, and sand and soil fall from the top of the head from time to time.This is because these three people are obviously not ordinary people, and they have no fear at all.

After passing through several defensive barriers in a few minutes, they reached the open area of ​​the tunnel, where several tourists took pictures.After another sharp turn, they saw the road going up.

The elevator here had been closed for a long time, so they went up the stairs, finally getting away from the dull air.

It was getting late outside, and after going out, there was an open space with grass, and there were still many tourists waiting to enter the tunnel.Not far away, you can see the streets of Beienzhu Island. This exit is very close to the outpost, a 5-minute walk.

Long Shiyu smelled it again, and whispered to Shen Chaomu, "The smell here is too messy, I can't smell it anymore."

"It's okay, I'll find it." Shen Chaomu rubbed his head, "Hurry up and go back to the outpost. If it's late, don't wait for me, go to bed early." He thought for a while and added, "Don't worry. Don't run around, you have helped a lot this time, and I will take you to eat delicious food when I come back."

"En." Long Shiyu looked sincere.

"...Don't follow me either."

"Ah."

Shen Chaomu was still worried, and told him repeatedly before leaving with Uther.

On the way, just to be on the safe side, he blackmailed Lu Shanhuai.

15 minute later.

A fleet of interstellar mercenary ships set sail in the port.

They rented a local medium-sized fishing boat and were going to the Nix Islands in the north of the main island.

The sale of advanced Beien diving equipment is prohibited on the main island, but if you go to the black market on the archipelago to buy it and avoid the patrol route of the coast guard, you can try to go into the water to rob graves—if you can get a fishing license through your relationship , it is more secure.

There are many branches of Beien's royal family, and there will always be a few small cemeteries that have been missed.

Even in a small cemetery, the decorations from the Northern Dynasty are worth enough, and if you are lucky enough to find gems, you can make a fortune.

Who doesn't love money?

Augusta was standing at the bow of the boat, with a cyan stubble that had just grown out on his chin, and the line of his jaw was crisp.

The pitch-black water in front of my eyes was broken by the fishing boat and foamed.From time to time, there is a color dripping from the air all over the body, dyeing the snow-white foam, and then disappearing quickly.Beyond are dark reefs and schools of jumping fish.

There was a firmness and blood in his eyes that other mercenaries didn't have. There were two knives with bloodletting slots on his waist, and he wore a dark blue long windbreaker.

The trench coat is hunting in the sea breeze, the pattern on the back flutters, and the lion with wings on its back fights the evil dragon.

"Boss," said a mercenary beside him, "shall we have a vote tonight?"

"Let's talk about it in the past, it may not be possible to find the connector of the church so quickly." Augusta replied, unconsciously turning an emerald ring on his hand, "And there are many troublesome characters on this island," a trace of chill flashed In his eyes, "especially that guy named Shen."

"Boss," the mercenary said again, "but... how can someone be grilling fish?"

"What's strange." Augusta said, licking his chapped lips due to the sea breeze, "There are a lot of fishermen by the sea here, so don't see too many strange things."

"No, yes, it's grilling fish on our boat"
