Chapter 404: Mutation - Loneliness 13
The restrictions are still in place, how could they not be affected at all? !
The patriarch's eyes were full of disbelief, and he simply couldn't believe that this was the scene he saw with his own eyes.
Anjiu didn't expect that his hair would burn with blue flames the moment it touched the sea water.
Is there something wrong with the sea water here?
She quietly plucked off a strand of her hair and threw it into the sea where the chief couldn't see it.
The hair fell lightly on the sea and floated there, without burning or any other reaction.
"..."
Anjiu glanced at the natives around him and realized that the sea water was dangerous for them.
The patriarch did not notice her little actions and shook his head, unable to accept this fact.
"them……"
It is possible to ignore restrictions!
No wonder so many people came this time.
It turned out to be like this...
There was a deep sorrow in the chief's eyes. If his tribesmen were still there, how could they not find a way to deal with the sea water?
It is impossible for his ethnic group to reach the point where they are on the verge of extinction.
It was also impossible for him to be trapped in this snail house with nowhere to go.
Everything is so fateful...
Is it God's will that they will be exterminated?
The clan leader's eyes gradually became confused, and he lost his mind as he looked at the three people swimming upstream below.
The expression on his face once again revealed a deep loneliness, and the feeling of solitude followed him like a shadow.
"Chief, where did they come out from? Is there an exit down there?"
Anjiu also didn't notice his emotional changes, or rather, solving the problem was more important than taking care of his emotions.
"Yes, there is another exit below." The patriarch said without thinking.
An Jiu was a little confused, "But wasn't the downstairs flooded? How could they find the door? Did they jump into the water?"
I don’t know which word touched the clan leader’s nerves. After a moment of daze, he suddenly got up, turned around and ran back.
"Clan leader?"
Anjiu quickly got up and followed.
The patriarch moved very quickly, and the candles were instantly extinguished when he passed by, leaving the corridor in complete darkness without any light.
It reignited two seconds later.
Anjiu knew why he was so anxious - the open door would allow seawater to flow back in.
If seawater can burn natives, then the same can be said for eggs.
If it is not stopped in time, the sea water will flood this place completely, and then we will be truly destroyed.
After she ran down more than ten floors, she suddenly found that there were seven or eight more fellow villagers in the corridor below.
They got the news from somewhere and ran downstairs in unison.
——Aren’t they afraid of meeting the patriarch?
Soon Anjiu discovered that the patriarch was not here, and the sea water was rising very quickly, and had spread to the bottom steps of the fifteenth floor.
A cold and damp breath hit me in the face.
The dark water surface was full of oppression.
She did not see the shadow of the tribe leader. The people running in front of her had a wider field of vision than her. They looked left and right, and suddenly they let out strange cries, and then jumped into the sea like dumplings.
"Run, run, he's chasing us!"
"It's so cold! This water can freeze me to death!"
"Stop talking nonsense and run down quickly. No one can get out if it's too late!"
"If the water is coming up, it means there must be an exit. As long as we walk towards the water, we will definitely be able to swim out!"
These people all knew how to tread water, and although their limbs were uncoordinated due to the cold, they still managed to swim forward two or three meters before the tribe leader arrived.
But this distance is obviously not far enough.
They looked back in panic, fearing that the patriarch would take out his murderous weapon.
After all, that thing doesn't need to go into the water, just choke the neck directly.
but……
The clan leader just watched them swim away with an expressionless face. They even seemed to see a hint of envy in his eyes?
An illusion, it must be an illusion!
The sea water continued to rise and soon touched the patriarch's toes.
Swish.
A small blue flame suddenly rose up.
And there is a tendency to spread upward.
The chieftain, as if he had no sense of pain, took out the yellow knife expressionlessly and cut off the tip of his shoe.
Then he turned around and walked up a few steps.
Anjiu looked down and saw that in addition to the shoe, there were five severed toes at the broken part.
He didn't bleed.
And the body structure is a bit weird.
It has no blood vessels or flesh, and looks like a cut rice cake or a big radish.
Anjiu suddenly understood why they could be reborn in eggs.
"Come here." The patriarch waved at her.
Anjiu walked over and asked, "What do you need me to do?"
"Well, there are indeed some things I need you to do." The clan leader spoke slowly, his tone somewhat vicissitudes, "I should have let you grow well, but something happened suddenly... I have to go to the next floor to close the barrier door."
Next level?
Doesn't that mean you have to go into the water?
Doesn't that mean he will burn to death?
"Yes," the patriarch read her thoughts, "Don't worry, I will be resurrected in three days at most.
"During this period, you need to send them (the white eggs) back to the corresponding rooms, and then remember to light a candle in the corridor every day, one candle a day is enough. Stay in my room at night and lock the door.
"I'll leave the Yellow Knife to you. If you encounter any remaining aliens, be decisive and don't be soft-hearted. Also... don't be afraid, I'll be back soon."
He gently stroked Anjiu's head, his eyes full of kindness from an elder.
After putting the yellow knife into Anjiu's pocket, he no longer hesitated, turned around and jumped into the water, moving quickly towards his destination. His body began to burn like a blue flower.
It is extremely bright in the dark water.
He was like a nimble fish, the kicking action of his legs propelling his body forward rapidly.
Soon, he disappeared into the corridor.
Anjiu squatted down, looked at the sea water only one or two centimeters away from him, stretched out a finger and gently poked it in.
It's cool, no burning sensation.
At this moment, she felt a vibration under her feet, and the water swung up in circles, as if something heavy was rumbling down from below.
With the last big vibration, Anjiu knew that the barrier door was opened. Although the sea water was still shaking, it did not continue to rise.
Except for the sound of sea water splashing on the steps, the whole space suddenly became silent.
She was the only living person left in the building.
An unprecedented feeling of loneliness emerged from the bottom of my heart along with this thought.
Anjiu moved his limbs uncomfortably, and after making sure that there was no one underwater, he prepared to go to the platform upstairs.
clatter--
The sound bounced back and forth between the walls on both sides, adding a sense of emptiness.
She frowned and subconsciously slowed down her steps, even though she was the only one here.
When she passed by the candlestick, the small air currents caused by her movements disturbed the candle flame, causing her shadow to sway on the wall, as if many invisible creatures wanted to pull a piece of it off and press it on themselves.
