Age Of The Sirens

After that weird baby laugh, the outside suddenly became quiet.Tang Yi sat in fear for a while, then looked back at Quicksilver.

Mercury listened carefully, then shook his head, "There is no sound."

Tang Yi carefully unzipped the tent and glanced outside.

The bonfire has been extinguished, and a few small tents not far away are silent like graves in the shadow of the forest. No one is seen, and the night watchman is also gone.Tang Yi unzipped the zipper a little more, and crawled out of the tent with his waist bent.

At first glance, there is nothing abnormal in the camp, but when you lower your head, you will see two traces on the ground.

It seems to be the mark left by something crawling on the mud floor with four feet on the ground, and there seems to be some dark green slime stuck to it.Coming out of the woods, he first turned around the bonfire, then turned around each tent, and finally disappeared outside his and Quicksilver's tent.Tang Yi turned around and looked around, only the sound of frogs croaked in the dark forest, and no special sound could be heard.

At this time, Tsuruta Takumi also came out of another tent. When he saw Tang Yi at first sight, he thought it was Tang Yi who stayed up in the middle of the night and pretended to be a ghost outside. He was interrupted by Tang Yi when he was about to curse, "Don't lie Me, that wasn't me just now, I came out to look after I was woken up."

Tsuruta had no choice but to hold back his words, looked at the ground, and frowned tightly.

"What is this……"

Peacock came out after him, squatted on the ground, touched the suspicious mucus on the ground, sniffed it between his nose, and frowned in disgust, "It smells disgusting, like rotten eggs... "

Mercury looked around, "Who should be on duty now?"

"Luo Wei!" He Tian shouted, his voice drifted far away in the silent night wind, but he didn't receive any response.

Tang Yi became nervous, even if he went to pee, he couldn't go too far away, right?Just as he was thinking, Luo Wei's tent was lifted, and Zi Xi poked his head out and asked, "What happened?"

Tang Yi hurriedly asked, "Is Luo Wei in the tent?"

"No, he was called out to watch the night by Lin Maochen."

Because of their commotion, other people also came out of the tent one after another. Tang Yi looked around but did not see Luo Wei.

Lin Maochen tried to trace the traces left by Luo Wei on the ground, but found no sign of Luo Wei leaving the camp.In other words, a living person just disappeared out of thin air.

The captain ordered the troops to divide into two groups and search the forest.

Tang Yi was anxious, so he shouted all night among the trees at the top of his voice, his voice became hoarse when it was dawn, and he couldn't find his little brother.Lin Maochen was looking for traces similar to the crawling in the camp in the bushes in front of him. He believed that Luo Wei's disappearance had something to do with the thing that could make a baby laugh and crawl on all fours.Although the traces of that thing disappeared outside Tang Yi's tent for no reason, but at least we can try to see where it crawled from in the end.

"There is a cave here." Lin Maochen shouted at Tang Yi.

Zixi rushed over first.It is said to be a cave, but it is actually more like a crack embedded in the root system of a tree. It is covered by dense branches, and it is impossible to see at first glance.If you look down carefully, you will find that the space under the crack is actually very wide. There is a shallow layer of water on the wet ground, and some rotten tree roots are covered with fungi and thick moss, faintly on the side walls. There is another hole in it.

"That thing seems to come out of here, maybe it's its lair." Lin Maochen pointed to a dark green liquid that was hard to find in the nearby fallen leaves, "I don't know if Luo Wei is also in it."

Zi Xi opened the branch and wanted to go down, but Tang Yi grabbed him, "Wait, first contact the captain and He Tian and the others before we talk."

Mercury had already called Jiang Yanfeng tacitly, and within half an hour everyone gathered in front of the deep crack.

Jiang Yanfeng looked down, "The space inside is narrow, so there is no need for everyone to go in. Lin Maochen and He Tian took Lan Huang and Peacock down to have a look, and the rest of them and I are here to stand by."

Zi Xi opened her eyes wide, "What about me?"

"You also stay here and wait."

"But……"

"This is an order!" Jiang Yanfeng's tone was firm and unquestionable. Zi Xi felt unwilling and clenched his hands into fists, but he had to obey.

There were simple rock climbing equipment in the backpack, Tsuruta and the other four quickly climbed down the rope and got into the depths of the dark cave.Tang Yi saw that Zi Xi was staring at the depth of the crack without moving, and he could imagine how anxious he was at this moment.

He understood why Jiang Yanfeng gave this order.Luo Wei had a relatively close relationship with Zi Xi and him, but caring about them was chaotic. A slight mistake in this unexplored underground cave could have serious consequences, so they had to be left behind.

As for Jiang Yanfeng himself, he can walk with that immobile leg, but climbing rocks is too much.

Suddenly a hand was placed on his shoulder, and he turned his head suddenly, but it was Mercury who handed him a bottle of water.Tang Yi's heart warmed up, just as his throat was burning with pain from shouting, the cool water moistened his burning throat and relieved the dry pain.

"Don't worry too much." Mercury seemed to be trying to comfort him, although the tone was not convincing at all.Tang Yi wanted to laugh, but he was worried that Luo Wei wouldn't be able to.

Time passed by every minute and every second, except for the occasional report from the walkie-talkie, there was no new progress.However, the cave system below is astonishingly complicated, and it has not been reached to the end. It is said that there are still many small passages that have not been explored.Tang Yi waited a little anxiously, and began to quietly look at Liu Huo and the captain.

This was the first time he saw the captain take Liuhuo on a mission together.But the atmosphere between the two is a bit weird.

Like now, the captain stood in front of the cave sweating profusely to confirm the situation with the team members inside, while Liu Huo sat far away under a short tree to enjoy the shade, with a careless look.Even Mercury would hand him a bottle of water, but Liu Huo showed no concern for the captain, and his expression was even a little cold and boring.

Is this normal behavior of a bound siren?

Tang Yi vaguely remembered that the captain seemed to have told him that the reason why he knew that Mercury's concern for him was not really affectionate was because he had experienced pretended feelings himself.Tang Yi couldn't help but gossip guessing, maybe he was talking about him and Liu Huo...

But how is it possible?He and Mercury are in this embarrassing relationship because of a special coincidence. Liuhuo is not a clone of some ancient god, and he, Jiang Yanfeng, doesn't have any "twin" replicant brother and brother, so why pretend to be bound?

Could it be that the captain is having an affair?

Looking at his sad and serious face, I can't tell...

"What's going on in your mind again, with such a wretched expression." Quicksilver commented from the side.

Tang Yi punched Mercury on the shoulder, "I'm just thinking about how you look without clothes?"

Shuiyin was stunned for a moment, his face flushed a little, "Don't think about it!"

"Cut... I've been fucked to pretend to be some kind of innocent little virgin..." Tang Yi pursed his lips and muttered in a low voice, but suddenly screamed like a girl, and the captain and Zi Xi both turned their heads and glanced at him strangely. glanced at him.

Of course, Tang Yi was embarrassed to say that Mercury just twisted his waist, so he could only giggle.

It seems that the impact of such a disturbance when Luo Wei's life and death are unknown... Tang Yi thought with a bit of guilt, but couldn't help being secretly happy for these long-lost small fights.

At this time, some chaotic and noisy voices suddenly came from the intercom. The harsh sound waves disturbed a few birds in the bushes, and he vaguely heard He Tian anxiously calling peacock.

The captain tried to call, but the other party did not answer.But the positioning devices on their bodies also began to fail one after another.In the end, I only heard Lin Maochen's report in rough clothes, "There are mutated creatures down here, which look like monitor lizards. I'm not sure if Luo Wei is inside. We are retreating outward!"

Then the communication was cut off, and there was no response for 15 minutes.

Tang Yi couldn't bear it anymore and stood up abruptly, "I'll go down to support them!"

Zi Xi immediately said, "I'm going too!"

The captain pondered for a moment, and Tang Yi noticed that his eyes paused for a while on Mercury.

"Okay. Liuhuo, you go with me too."

The blond siren sighed, but stood up without saying a word, walked gracefully to the crack, and jumped down.

Tang Yi stared dumbfounded at the light landing of the sea monster, and raised his head and shouted, "Why are you in a daze, let's go."

Tang Yi found that when he was acting with the three sea-monsters, he was the most clumsy human being. It took a lot of time to adjust the climbing rope to descend, and the three sea-monsters were already waiting for him below. up.At the bottom of the cave, with the skylight collapsing into a line overhead, he mounted the light on his helmet and followed Quicksilver deeper into the cave.

The narrowness of the natural cave was beyond his expectation.Although the first section of the road is narrow, it is still possible to walk upright. Later, you have to bend your waist, and then you can only kneel on the ground and crawl deep into the earth.The ground was extremely wet, and many woodworms the size of palms were running around in the light above his head, and some even crawled up his arms to his face, and he hurriedly slapped them down, waving countless fine and dense insects on the ground. His legs made him feel nauseated.The space was compressed from all directions, and the uneven stone walls often hit his forehead, and he was out of breath and ashamed in a short while.

He couldn't help thinking that if the narrow passage collapsed, they would be buried underground forever, unable to move, and could only wait to die in the dark.

Tang Yi hurriedly diverted his thoughts, forcing himself to focus on the ass of Mercury in front of him...

Fortunately, a spacious inner cave appeared at the end of the narrow passage. Tang Yi crawled out of the passage, sat down against the stone wall, and finally took a breath.When he turned his head, he saw that the originally spotless Mercury was now covered in dust like a big tabby cat, so he couldn't help but chuckled.

Mercury glared at him, as if to say, "Where do you think you can get any better?"

The three sirens discussed it and decided that Liuhuo would try to send out sound waves to communicate with the peacock and the blue god.Although in terms of strong sound pressure and ultrasonic waves attacking mercury is the strongest, Liuhuo is proficient in using low-pressure infrasonic waves.In this kind of cave structure that may not be very stable, a gunshot or a shout may cause the interior to collapse. I am afraid that only Liuhuo can control the scale, and can not only contact the peacock and the blue god, but also not cause the rock to resonate. .

This karst cave has three rock passages that may lead to other places. Liuhuo sent out sound waves to each of the passages. After a while, he finally heard a weak response from one of the relatively spacious passages.

Liu Huo listened carefully for a moment, then turned to tell them, "It was the peacocks who responded to me. Their sound waves caused the corridor to collapse, their way out was blocked, and the communicator was also smashed."

"Then hurry up!" Tang Yi said as he was about to dive in, but was dragged back by Quicksilver.

"Just go in with Liuhuo, you and Zixi will wait here." Shuiyin ordered simply.

Tang Yi blinked his eyes, "Why?"

"Are you still trying to blast rocks away with your microwave gun? Do you want to bury us all alive?"

……

Tang Yi raised his hands, "Okay, okay, you have ultrasound, you are awesome."

Although Zi Xi repeatedly asked to follow, under Liu Huo's calm gaze, he had no choice but to stay at the entrance of the cave with Tang Yi.Watching the two sea monsters disappear into the darkness, Tang Yi saw that Zi Xi's face was heavy, and wanted to liven up the atmosphere, so he suddenly chuckled, "Do you think they two look like the King of the Golden Horn and the King of the Silver Horn?"

Unexpectedly, from the depths of the cave, there was a threatening voice from Liuhuo, "We heard it~"

Tang Yi closed his mouth and coughed.

Zi Xi always liked to laugh, but ever since Luo Wei disappeared, he just looked anxious like sitting on a frying pan.It can be seen that his attachment to Luo Wei is very deep.

But Luo Wei always seems to be very indifferent to him, and sometimes he doesn't make excuses.

Tang Yi remembered that he asked Luo Wei why he couldn't be gentle with his sea monster.Luo Wei's expression at that time was a little helpless and bitter.

He said he didn't love Zixi.The binding object was arranged by the team, and neither he nor the siren had the right to choose.

Tang Yi remembered telling him that at least he still had the right to choose whether to fall in love with her, but Zi Xi didn't even have this right.After that, Luo Wei seemed to be a little gentler towards Zi Xi.

Now looking at the purple-haired sea monster's six gods, Tang Yi thought of the puppy abandoned by its owner.I really feel a little uncomfortable in my heart.

He patted Zi Xi on the shoulder, "Don't worry, we will find him."

Zi Xi nodded and looked back at him, but his face suddenly changed.He threw Tang Yi down suddenly, and sent out a sharp sonic attack in a certain direction.Tang Yi didn't have time to put on the earmuffs, he was dizzy from the shock, and finally got up from the ground, but his body froze.

On the top of the cave in front of him, a strange thing hangs upside down.

It seems to be a huge lizard, but the skin is an unpleasant gray flesh color, which looks soft, a long tail is swished in demonstration behind it, and strangely, between its thick hands and feet With a bat-like structure, it seems to be able to glide.There were many tumors squeezing each other on its neck, and a pair of small black eyes on its head stared at them coldly.

This is... the giant lizard that Lin Maochen mentioned just now? !

It really is a mutant creature... Maybe it was contaminated by nuclear waste?The water in this swamp is connected to the ocean, or is it the result of being infected when humans dropped the red death agent on a large area of ​​the ocean?Otherwise, how could such an ugly animal be born in nature alone, and it would almost catch up with Lee's "cute"...

I saw that giant lizard opened its big red mouth towards them, and let out a piercing cry like a baby.
