The final gentleman

Mountains several kilometers away.

The gentlemen looked upon the town in general riot,

The [clothing] they wore seemed to smell the smell of blood coming from the town, and became restless.

Teacher Siman has a big belly and almost all the facial features are squeezed together.

"If such a large-scale forced infection breaks out tonight, it will be difficult for anyone to survive until tomorrow afternoon... I suggest that the end time of the assessment be advanced to dawn."

This proposal was approved by many gentlemen.

Even the always strict white-haired Professor Chamberson acquiesced.

While most of the gentlemen's eyes were on the area where fierce fighting broke out in and around the center of the town,

Gu~

The owl standing on Chamberson's shoulder made a hoot, pulling Chamberson's vision towards the [Green Shade Hotel] on the edge of the town.

Two "patients" with independent consciousness did not participate in the riots in the town, but quietly slipped out through the back door.

One behind the other, they pushed the wooden cart together.

There were six 'cadavers' piled on top, with a 'fish egg membrane' wrapped on the surface and filled with a large amount of mucus inside.

And one of the 'corpses' at the bottom was the young man that the white-haired Chamberson had paid attention to before, and which slightly interested him.

Chamberson just watched silently without making any comments.

The wooden cart was pushed to the lakeside,

Tilt the front of the car,

Wow~ The water splashed, and all six corpses fell into it.

The brother and sister responsible for the transportation also jumped into the lake.

They carried six corpses through the stickiness of their bodies and sent them to the deepest part of the lake.

"This is……"

The pupils of the white-haired Chamberson changed at this moment. This was also the first time he used his ability since he proctored the exam.

The whites of the eyes are replaced by blood,

The round pupils were completely dyed black,

He doubled his vision and could easily see through the green lake, focusing on Yi Chen who was wrapped in film and pretending to be comatose.

"This guy actually did this..."

Chamberson raised his hand and said,

The owl on the shoulder immediately spread its wings and flew out. The white shadow flashed in the night sky and flew towards the Green Lake.

…

【Under the Lake】

What the brother and sister carried was not a corpse;

Rather, they are perfectly cultivated infectious bodies suitable for "fish transformation"... currently being used as distractions to hide Yi Chen as the 'sixth person'.

These fish egg membranes that wrap around the body,

It can effectively isolate the influence of lake water,

It can also preserve a certain amount of air, enough to support it to the bottom of the lake.

in addition,

Yi Chen himself also took some insurance measures.

"Mask built-in"

There is an 'inner network' of roots woven between the throat, nasal cavity and ear canal... Even if it is exposed to lake water, it prevents lake water from infiltrating into the body and effectively filters pathogens.

eyes closed,

Pretending to be comatose,

There is a mouth quietly open on the back of the head, with eyes inside, quietly peeking at the underwater situation.

Based on observations of Green Lake.

[The first half of the lake]:

Floating and crowded with a large number of dense and green-colored parasite eggs and fish eggs,

[The lower half of the lake]

The tiny egg body no longer exists, replaced by a terrifying "human egg".

Those infected with fish scales who have successfully passed the first stage are curled up among the eggs,

A strip of flesh similar to an umbilical cord, one end connected to their navel and the other end connected to the bottom of the lake.

In this way, "fishification" is performed.

When the body has grown enough fish scales, the internal organs have evolved, and a perfect gill structure has been formed, it can emerge from the egg and transform into a mermaid.

certainly,

Some formed fishmen are also swimming here, inspecting the human eggs and being wary of intruders.

slowly,

Under the guidance of the brothers and sisters, they gradually approached the deepest part of the Green Lake.

The creeping sense of voyeurism came again, and it was clear that something was watching them from the deepest place.

"That is! 』

After bypassing the human eggs and patrolling mermaids,

An extraordinary [giant eye] was discovered, embedded deep in the lake bottom... The super-large green eyes kept moving, monitoring everything at the bottom of the lake and in Green Lake Town.

"Super big green grapes!" 』

Little Grape became extremely excited at this moment,

this moment,

Yi Chen also understood the reason for Little Putao's positive performance. Maybe he had known it for a long time.

However, one thing that is puzzling is that

"Why is the root a giant eye? Rather than the mother? 』

In Yi Chen's expectation,

What caused the spread of ichthyosis and the mermaidization of the town should be a parasite mother... Its image should be a huge insect-shaped monster that lays eggs crazily.

But the giant eye in front of me seems to have nothing to do with "egg laying" or "parasite".

Just when Yi Chen was confused, Little Putao's voice came:

"What is disease?" Where does disease come from? Almost no one understands these issues, and even less understands the diversity and variability involved.

Maybe there was never any parasitic mother,

This giant eye is just a [Monitor].

It may have been instructed to come to this town with a 'parasite swarm' to monitor and witness the transformation of the town... and may subsequently take away some high-quality patients.

Its eyes can control the mind of the parasite by gazing at it.

anyway,

This super giant grape is the source...and that's our target.

Later, William, there is only one thing you need to do - [make physical contact with this eyeball].

As long as I touch the surface of the eyeball, I can move directly to its interior and suck the grape juice. 』

Listening to the battle plan given by Xiao Putao, Yi Chen replied:

"You knew from the beginning that there was this giant eye hidden at the bottom of the lake, right, little Grape?" 』

"Not at the beginning, but during the lake tour, I felt it when I stared at the lake... It's the same type~ There will naturally be some subtle reactions. 』

Yi Chen didn't say anything more, but focused on what was in front of him.

After the brother and sister delivered the ‘goods’,

The hotel owner used the method of conscious communication to convey the information about this batch of goods to the giant eye at the bottom of the lake.

When the transmission is completed, immediately float up.

Any extraneous behavior may arouse suspicion.

Yi Chen and other 'cargo' were suspended about four meters above the giant eye.

Currently located in deep water, it is not easy to close such a distance, so we must wait for opportunities.

follow closely,

A rather strange picture came into view.

A small circular hole actually opened in the center of the pupil of the giant eye.

Gajigaji~ A fleshy creature similar to an eel emerged from it, called a meat eel for short.

The mouth is round, with dense sharp teeth, and reveals blood-colored threads swaying in the water.

"This is... connected to the belly button, something similar to an umbilical cord!" 』

The next second,

The meat eel was inserted into a 'cargo' beside Yi Chen.

The mouthparts and navel are perfectly connected,

Dragging the cargo to the empty space at the bottom of the lake,

take root,

gestate,

transformation,

Well organized,

Another meat eel was born and connected to another cargo in front of Yi Chen.

Watching the 'bodies' around me being dragged away and packed up one by one... This suffocating and depressing feeling was like a hand pinching the heart, forcing the heart rate to accelerate.

"Hold on!" 』

Yi Chen suppressed his nervousness with all his strength and waited for the best time to come.

Maybe because of good luck,

Perhaps this giant eye noticed Yi Chen's specialness,

Or maybe the innkeeper said something to the giant eye,

Yi Chen happened to be the last one... deep in the lake, only he and the giant eye were left.

Gajigaji~

Between the small holes of the eyes, the last eel was drilled, which was also matched with Yi Chen's.

squirming,

float up,

diamond film,

Huh... Yi Chen took a deep breath, still making no move, still waiting for the opportunity to come.

The meat eel sticks to the waist and abdomen, crawling towards the navel,

The oral silk threads used for nerve connection were scratching on Yi Chen's body, making it extremely itchy.

Go around to the front,

The mouth of the meat eel blooms in the shape of petals, revealing the inner wall full of sharp teeth, and bites towards the navel.

The moment his mouth touched his belly button.

Yi Chen's eyes suddenly opened,

The silver ax that had been prepared for a long time was pulled out from the clothes room... Whoa!

The eel's strip-shaped body and the white egg membrane on Yi Chen's body were cut open at the same time.

With the other hand, grab the upper body of the eel that is still on the abdomen, and crush it hard!

next moment,

Yi Chen took advantage of the situation and raised his free arm

Five fingers buckle the noodles,

Gajigaji~

New and tender plant roots weave quickly,

Perhaps due to the stimulation of danger, the weaving speed is faster than before, and bark structures even appear on the surface of the roots.

In a blink of an eye,

A filtering mask has been placed on the face to further isolate the lake water.

The above process is completed almost instantly,

Before the giant eye could fully react,

Yi Chen swam towards the deepest point at full speed...

Four meters,

Three meters,

Two meters,

When there was only the last meter left, a change occurred!

The giant eye at the bottom of the lake was originally a dilated pupil, but it was narrowed and focused in an instant... and turned into a [dot] the size of a table tennis ball.

"Oops!"

Even if Yi Chen closed his eyes for the first time,

but,

An invisible spiritual ripple has penetrated,

Penetrating the mask and eyelids,

Through the eyes,

It travels directly to the brain along the eye nerves,

Buzz!

Strong tinnitus,

It's like some naughty kid stuffed a whole box of cannons into his head, and then slapped them all open.

"William!" Hold on!

I can't be exposed before I come into contact with the big grape! 』

At this time,

The voice of Little Grape sounded in the consciousness, providing encouragement and support to the consciousness.

Under the penetration of spiritual power,

Yi Chen felt that the surface of his brain seemed to be covered with tiny eyeballs.

As long as there is any gap in consciousness, it will be penetrated by the eyeballs.

"Hold on, this is a hard-won chance to be reborn..."

【Willpower】

A spiritual product polished with "life experience" as a hammer.

Although Yi Chen is only in his twenties, his "life experience" in the first half of his life is like a giant hammer with spikes, beating him all the time.

Finally escaped,

I finally got the opportunity to travel through time and came to such an interesting world.

He wanted to live...live seriously for once.

this moment!

Blood seeped out from between the eye sockets, turning the plant mask red.

His screams turned into a large number of floating bubbles in the lake.

Forcefully break through the last meter gap,

sideways,

Stretch your arms,

touch,

The palm of the hand is firmly attached to the moist and smooth surface of the eyeball... and it is still in the center, where the pore of the meat eel is drilled out.

The moment of contact,

The black flesh ball instantly separated from the palm,

along the pores,

Get into the giant eye.

At this moment of success,

Yi Chen could no longer hold on, and his relaxed consciousness was broken instantly!

only,

The mental erosion from the giant eye did not damage the brain,

Instead, Yi Chen's consciousness was packaged and sent to a completely unknown realm.

Buzz!

Tremors of consciousness,

Yi Chen's consciousness seemed to be sent to a deep place, like a mysterious cave at the bottom of an abyss.

Black fish scales in the shape of regular hexagons are spread all over the cave wall like bricks.

The ground is covered with a layer of clear water that can cover the knees of ordinary people.

Flesh-colored pipes connect various experimental tanks to each other.

Chambers of different sizes used to cultivate life are suspended and inlaid on the walls.

This place is like an [Abyss Laboratory].

the center of the laboratory,

An individual whose form transcends concepts is recording data,

Just facing away from Yi Chen's conscious body,

He wore an almost perfect dark gold tube-shaped robe with its own force field, revealing a tail covered with black scales.

Compared to fish tail, I prefer dragon tail.

Do not know why,

When Yi Chen looked at the back of this being,

dong dong dong

Epic music full of layers of music suddenly sounded in my consciousness for no reason.

The sound of the cello fades away, matching the lapping of the ocean tide,

It seems to be telling the audience that this kind of music comes from the depths of the sea, indicating that a terrifying existence is about to come.

While the music sounds,

A [frame] framed by gold and with a fish head relief at the beginning, similar to the shape of a health bar in the game, appears above the opponent's head.

The frame is filled with a dark-colored fish oil, or an ancient fish essence.

surging,

rolling,

growling

Titles and names are also attached to the frame.
