the last gentleman

Chapter 21
Mountains a few kilometers away.

Gentlemen watch the town in full riot,
The [clothing] worn on them seemed to smell the bloody smell coming from the town, and they became restless.

Teacher Siman with a big belly squeezed almost all the facial features of his face together,
"If this large-scale forced infection breaks out tonight, it will be difficult for anyone to survive until tomorrow afternoon... I suggest that the end of the assessment be brought forward 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 town center and surrounding areas where fierce fighting broke out,
goo~
The owl standing on Chamberson's shoulder uttered a cry, drawing Chamberson's vision and looking at [Green Shade Hotel] at the edge of the town together.

Two "patients" with independent consciousness did not participate in the riots in the town, but sneaked out through the back door,
Pushing the wooden cart together one after the other,
There are six 'corpses' piled up on it. The surface of the body is covered with a kind of 'fish egg film', and the inside is filled with a lot of mucus.

And one of the 'corpses' at the bottom was the young man with white hair Chamberson who had been paying attention to before, and which aroused his interest slightly.

Chamberson just watched silently without making any comments,
The wooden cart was pushed to the lakeside,

Tilt the car,

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

The brothers and sisters in charge of transport also jumped into the lake,

They carried six corpses to the deepest part of the lake by means of body stickiness.

"This is……"

The pupils of the white-haired Chamberson changed at this moment, and this was the first time he had used his abilities since this invigilation.

The whites of the eyes are replaced by blood,
The round pupils are completely blackened,
Doubling his vision ability, he easily sees through the Green Lake, focusing on Yi Chen, who is wrapped in a film and pretends to be in a coma.

"This guy actually made it this far..."

Chamberson pointed,
The owl on the shoulder immediately spread its wings and flew out, and the white shadow flashed across the night sky, flying towards the green lake.

……

【under the lake】

Carried by brother and sister is not a dead body,
It is a perfectly cultivated infected body suitable for "fish transformation"...all of them are currently used as interference items to hide Yi Chen as the 'sixth person'.

These roe membranes that wrap around the body,
It can effectively isolate the influence of lake water,
It can also retain a certain amount of air, which is enough to support the bottom of the lake.
in addition,

Yichen also took some insurance measures himself,
"Mask built-in"

The throat, nasal cavity, and ear canal are all equipped with an 'inner net' made of roots... Even if exposed to lake water, it can prevent lake water from infiltrating the body and effectively filter pathogens.

eyes closed,

fake coma,

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

Based on observations of Green Lake.

[The first half of the lake]:
Floating and crowding a large number of dense and green parasite eggs and fish eggs,
【The second half of the lake】

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

Those infected with fish scales who have successfully passed the first stage are curling up between the eggs,
A strip of meat resembling an umbilical cord was connected to their navels at one end and to the bottom of the lake at the other end.

In this way, "fishing" is carried out.

When enough fish scales grow on the body, the evolution of internal organs is completed, and the perfect gill structure is formed at the same time, the egg can be broken out and transformed into a mermaid.

of course,

Some murlocs that have already formed are also swimming here, checking the human eggs and keeping an eye out for intruders.

slowly,
Led by the brothers and sisters, they gradually approached the deepest part of the Green Lake.

The creepy feeling of voyeurism came again, and it was obvious that something was watching them from the deepest part.

"That is! 』

After bypassing a human egg and a patrolling mermaid,
An unreasonable [Giant Eye] was discovered, embedded in the depths of the lake... The super-large green eyes are constantly moving, monitoring everything about the bottom of the lake and Green Lake Town.

"Super green grapes! 』

Little Putao became extremely excited at this moment,

this moment,
Yi Chen also understands the reason for Little Putao's active performance, maybe it has known it for a long time.

However, one thing is puzzling,
"Why is the source a giant eye?Instead of the mother? 』

Yi Chen expected,

It should be a parasite mother that caused the spread of ichthyosis and the mermaid transformation of the town... Its image should be a huge worm-shaped monster that lays eggs crazily.

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

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

"What is a disease?"Where does pathology come from?These problems are hardly understood by anyone, and the diversity and variability in them are even less understood.

Perhaps 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's lesions... It may take some high-quality patients away later.

Its eyes can exercise mind control over parasites by gazing.

anyway,

This super grape is the source... our goal is it.

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

As long as I touch the surface of the eyeball, I can transfer directly to the inside of it and suck the grape juice. 』

Listening to the battle plan given by Little Putao, Yi Chen replied:
"You knew from the beginning that there was this giant eye hidden at the bottom of the lake, didn't you, little grape? 』

"It wasn't at the beginning, but I felt it when I stared at the lake during the lake tour... It's the same type~ Naturally, there will be some subtle feelings. 』

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

After the brothers and sisters delivered the 'goods',
The innkeeper used the method of consciousness communication to convey the information of this batch of goods to the giant eyes at the bottom of the lake.

When the communication is completed, immediately float up.

Any extraneous behavior may arouse suspicion.

Yichen and other 'goods' are suspended about four meters above the giant eye,
Currently in the deep water area, such a distance is not easy to close, we must wait for the opportunity.

follow closely,

A rather strange picture came into view,
In the center of the pupil of the giant eye, a small circular hole actually expanded,
Creak creak~ A fleshy creature similar to an eel was drilled out of it, referred to as a meat eel.

The mouth is round, with dense sharp teeth, and reveals bloody silk threads swaying in the water.

"This is... connected to the navel, something like an umbilical cord! 』

Next second,
The meat eel was inserted into a "goods" beside Yi Chen,

The mouthparts are perfectly connected with the navel,
Dragging the cargo to the empty place at the bottom of the lake,

take root,

bred,

conversion,

well organized,

Another meat eel was born, connecting to another cargo in front of Yi Chen.

Watching the 'corpses' around me being dragged away and packed one by one... This suffocating feeling of depression is like being pinched by a hand to force the heart rate to speed up.

"Hold on! 』

Yi Chen suppressed his nervousness with all his strength, waiting for the best time to come.

Maybe because of luck,
Maybe this giant eye sensed Yi Chen's specialness,
Or maybe the innkeeper and the giant eye said something,
Yi Chen happened to be the last one... In the depths of the lake, only him and the giant eye are left.

creak creak ~
The last one drilled out from the small hole in the pupil is also the meat eel that is paired with Yi Chen.
wriggling,

floating,

drill film,

Phew... Yi Chen took a deep breath, still not moving, still waiting for the time to come.

The meat eel sticks to the waist and crawls towards the navel,
The oral silk threads used to connect the nerves scratched Yi Chen's body, making it extremely itchy.

around to the front,

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

Just at the moment when the mouth is attached to the belly button.

Yi Chen's eyes suddenly opened,

The silver ax that had been prepared earlier was pulled out from the clothes room... Shua!

The strip-shaped flesh of the meat eel and the white egg membrane on Yi Chen's body were cut open together.

The other hand grabbed the upper body of the meat eel that remained in the abdomen, and crushed it hard!

next moment,
Yi Chen raised his free arm

five-finger clasp,

creak creak ~
Young plant roots quickly weave,
Perhaps due to dangerous stimulation, the weaving speed is faster than before, and even bark structures appear on the surface of the roots.

In a blink of an eye,
A filter mask has been worn over the face to further insulate the lake.

The above process is completed almost instantly.

Before the giant eyes could fully react,
Yi Chen swims to the deepest part 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 shrank and focused in an instant...it turned into a [dot] the size of a ping-pong ball.

"Oops!"

Even if Yi Chen closed his eyes immediately,

but,

An invisible spiritual ripple has penetrated,

Penetrating mask and eyelids,
through the pupils,

go straight to the brain along the eye nerve,

hum!
strong tinnitus,
It's as if some naughty child stuffed a whole box of cannons into his head, and then slapped them all.

"William!hang on!

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

At this time,

Little Putao's voice sounded in the consciousness, giving encouragement, and also giving support to the consciousness.

Under the infiltration 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 eyeballs.

"Hold on to me, this is a chance of rebirth that I finally got..."

【Willpower】

It is a spiritual product polished with "life experience" as a hammer.

Although Yi Chen is only in his 20s, his "life experience" in the first half is like a giant hammer with sharp spikes, beating him all the time.

It's hard to escape,

After finally getting the chance to travel to such an interesting world,
He wanted to survive...to live seriously.

this moment!
Blood oozed from the eye sockets, staining the plant mask red.

Shouting vigorously, it turned into a large number of floating bubbles in the lake.

Forcibly breaking through the last meter interval,

sideways,

spread arms,

touch,

The palm is firmly attached to the moist and smooth surface of the eyeball... and it is still in the center, where the meaty eel's pores are drilled.

the moment of touch,

The black meat ball is separated from the palm instantly,
along the pores,

Drill into the giant eye.

this moment of success,
Yi Chen could no longer hold on, and his slack consciousness was instantly broken!
only,
The psychic erosion from the giant eye did not destroy the brain,

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

hum!
tremors of consciousness,

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

Regular hexagonal black fish scales cover the cave walls like wall bricks,
The ground is covered with a layer of clear water that can overflow the knees of ordinary people,
A variety of experimental tanks are connected to each other by flesh-colored pipes.
The walls are suspended and inlaid with chambers of different sizes for cultivating life.

This place is like an [Abyss Laboratory].

center of the lab,

An individual whose form transcends concepts is recording data,

Just facing away from Yi Chen's conscious body,

He was wearing a near-perfect dark gold tube-shaped robe with a force field, revealing a tail covered with black scales.

Compared with fish tail, it is more inclined to dragon tail.

Do not know why,

When Yi Chen stared at the back of this being,
Dong dong dong

Unexpectedly, epic music full of layers sounded in the consciousness,
The sound of the cello fading away, matched with the beating of the tide,
It seems to tell the audience that this kind of music comes from the depths of the sea, which indicates that a certain terrifying existence is about to come.

While the music is playing,
One framed in gold, with a fish head relief at the beginning, similar to the [frame] in the shape of a blood bar in the game, appearing on top of the opponent's head.

The frame is filled with a dark fish oil, or an ancient fish essence,
surging,

rolling,

growl
Titles and names are also attached to the frame.
