Shakira poked her head out from behind the black boulder and looked in Nasaton's direction, her face getting worse and worse.After a moment, she retracted her head: "Unexpected......
I'm afraid it's not that easy to get into. ”The corners of Hao Ren's eyes jumped: "What's wrong?"
”"See that pale blue barrier outside the city walls?"
Shakira pointed at Nasaton's shield with the tip of her tail, "That's the city's water dome, the tarani crystal on the wall is glowing, indicating that the water dome has been incarnated, in this case the barrier is connected to Her Majesty's spirit, anything that passes through the water dome will be sensed by the queen, she will find out that you are not a kraken, and then use that water film to cut the intruder into pieces." ”Lily opened her mouth, "......
How does this work?
”"Water is amorphous, it can be turned into a man, and it can be turned into a city.The Tarani Crystal can amplify the Queen's psychic power and make the Water Dome an extension of her body, which is the key to her ability to control the entire city," Soma sighed, "This was supposed to be the Queen's last resort to protect the city when it was in danger, but it was not expected to be used to imprison her own people now." ”Izax touched his chin: "This kind of thing must consume a lot of energy, can that queen connect her spirit to the water dome forever?"
There's always a time for her to rest. ”Shakira shook her head: "The core of the water will bear most of the mana consumption, and as long as the queen stands above the core of the water, her magic and energy are endless.Oh, and the core of the gushing water is the energy core of the city, just inside the palace. ”Hao Ren slapped his head: "I'll go, why are you doing so much high-tech......
Can't you be your own mermaid?
”At this time, Doudou had the courage to swim outside, and even if she was seen from afar, she would be treated as a small fish.She swam to the back of another big rock close to the beach, and suddenly seemed to find something thorny and scurried back: "Daddy, there's something over there!"
Ship!
”The little guy couldn't tell clearly, and everyone was confused and decided to go over to see the situation.Shakira controlled the flow of water to form a barrier that could interfere with the Kraken's perception to a certain extent, covering the team behind a nearby boulder, and Doudou immediately pulled Hao Ren's arm: "That!
”"......me," Hao Ren was taken aback when he saw the scene on the beach in the distance, "Why is this thing here?!"
”Hundreds of meters away on the beach lay a rusty, almost wreckage-like black steel creature with a large internal opening in the middle, which may be the reason for its sinking.In addition, the portholes, propellers, tail rudder and superstructure of this wreck are still clearly visible, Nangong May stared at the torpedo tube at the front end of the thing for a long time, and pursed his lips: "It's a submarine of the Soviets, I can't see the model." ”"Have you ever seen this thing?"
Shakira asked in amazement, she had been living in seclusion in the mountains and forests since she came ashore, and she didn't know much about modern human weapons such as submarines and warships—except for shore defense guns."
I've seen it a few times when I'm swimming, but I didn't dare to get on it," Nangong May nodded, "This thing may have been lost near the Misty Island and then crashed into it by mistake, and the water pressure in the deep sea is not something that this old model submarine can withstand." ”"It's been dragged here," Nangong Sanba suddenly pointed to the beach behind the old submarine, where there was a huge ravine, and according to the water and weeds near the ravine, this thing had probably been lying here for many years, "Do you krakens still collect human ships?"
”"No, usually we throw these things into the trench, or push them onto the human shoreline—depending on whether we can push them," Shakira shook her head, then suddenly shrunk back, "Wait, someone's coming!"
”Everyone hurriedly hid themselves, and then they saw that a piece of water in front of the old submarine suddenly twisted, and the water quickly converged into a human form, a kraken in the form of a sea serpent.The Siren held a gleaming blue halberd with a large aquamarine embedded in the two curved blades at the tip of the halberd.She raised her halberd in front of the submarine and began chanting an ancient mantra in an eerie tone, before sticking it in the sand: "Get up, it's time to work!"
”Clouds of sand and dust like smoke swirled around the submarine at once, and then dozens of figures emerged from the holes in the submarine and the nearby sand.The figures were wrapped in rotting military uniforms that were about to rot away, like shrouds, and although they were intact, their skin and muscles were a decaying and dead blue-gray color, and some could still see swollen and strange wounds from which fine sand continued to flow.Hao Ren looked at all this in amazement, those soldiers were undoubtedly not normal living people, they had a gray-blue crystal inlaid in their chests, which should be the reason why they were able to move.These controlled warriors looked at the kraken in front of them expressionlessly, the muscles on their bodies twitched slightly, and it seemed that there was still a stubborn reluctance to resist in the depths of their hearts, but the crystals on their chests and the halberd in the kraken's hands continued to resonate, making these people unable to resist.The Kraken standing in front of them was clearly not free: her eyes were dark, and the expression on her face was as stiff as a dead man, indicating that she was far more affected than the Kraken General before her, and that she had completely lost her will and was now a remote-controlled machine that faithfully carried out her orders.The Kraken raised his halberd, turned and swam into the distance: "Work." ”The stunned team left the range of the submarine, and Hao Ren and his party, who were hiding in the shadows, were stunned for a long time, until Shakira gritted her teeth and broke the silence: "How can the queen allow such a thing?"
This is not in the tradition of the Kraken!
”"It's not the Queen, it's the Brain Monster," Vivien pressed Sakira's shoulder, "We'd better go along, the work that the Kraken mentioned is very concerning." ”Shakira nodded silently, following the breath of water left by the Siren from earlier.The group followed the "team of the dead" at a distance, swimming some distance along the beach before turning into a beach with many gray-white porous rocks.It's close to the outer walls of Nasaton, and you have to be careful not to be spotted by the sentries on the city's high walls, but the white porous rocks around it can be used as cover.Vivien suddenly frowned halfway through: "I feel like there is ...... here More breath. ”"I feel it too, it's the breath of the dead," Hasselblad whispered, "be vigilant." ”"" has been honestly following behind Hao Ren, and she finally became sensible this time.And after swimming for a while, she suddenly touched Hao Ren's arm: "Big cat, over there." ”Hao Ren lowered his body and poked his head out from a porous rock, only to see a very large construction site in shock!
In the center of the porous rock swarm is a large clearing, where intense construction is underway, and groups of dead are working under the watchful eye of the Kraken Overseer.Most of the dead were World War II sailors in tattered uniforms, with gray skin, stiff faces, strange gray-blue crystals on their chests, and all sorts of military uniforms—barely recognizable to Hao Ren, but Lily recognized them as at least British, Soviets, and Americans, all Allied soldiers.Considering that there have never been reports of a Kraken directly attacking a human warship and being sighted, it is believed that these soldiers sank to the bottom of the sea during the war and were then "collected" by the Krakens.A dozen expressionless krakens with halberds patrolled the clearing, and under their watch, the dead were assembling coral-shaped metal branches and mounting them on a kind of large, silvery-white pillar buried deep in the ground, which spread far from the other end of the site, neatly arranged like a strange metal forest.The data terminal took staggering energy readings from those devices."
These things can pass through the spatial media, and the lower part of them must be nailed deep into the earth," Izax said in a serious voice, "and they're pumping energy from the Earth's core......
But I could feel that its energy flow was incomplete, and there should be some other device connected to them. ”"It's not just dead people here," Nangong Sanba suddenly pointed to the other end of the clearing, "Look over there." ”Following the direction of Nangong Sanba's fingers, you can see another group of slaves who are busy working under the watchful eye of the Kraken - it is a group of aliens, there are sturdy werewolves, pale vampires, and shadow demons with dark temperaments and twisted limbs.It is clear that they are all alive.
