It can be judged from the positioning sensor not long ago that there are two selected people on the ship. They must have used a lot of resources to get the assistance of the powerful capital ships of the Bayeran Navy.
However, the battleship was damaged and stranded, losing its navigation ability. From a distance, some unknown plant is spreading. No sailors could be seen on the ship or in the nearby sea, and the status of the two chosen ones was even more unknown.
"This is a vast ocean, and they can't escape very far in a short time," Griffith said. "The Typhon stays put and prepare a small boat for me."
"Miss Galadia, please stay on board the Typhon," Ashura said. "I suggest that Lord Amon, Valkyrie and Miss Rockhavet explore, while Melrose and I will escort. If something unexpected happens , the Typhon can support us from a long distance."
This is a good arrangement. The chosen one who launches the attack has a three to two advantage. If an accident occurs, there will be support from Galadia and Typhon in the rear.
"Wait a minute, I have a bad feeling..." Galadia rubbed her forehead, "There is something interfering with my perception, vague, but disturbing. Can't you feel it?"
"I didn't feel anything, miss," Ashura said. "Maybe it's the spreading algae and spore plants. What did you find?"
"No." Melrose and Hallandir said in unison.
"Meow, I think so!" Alyosha roared in a low voice, her hair standing on end as if she was in danger.
"That's your illusion," Amon said. "It may be the remaining aura of the deep sea beast that the other party summoned not long ago."
Erza looked at the elves, then at Griffith, but said nothing.
Fighting always involves risk. Although Miss Elf was uneasy, she had no clear reason to object to action. Griffith and other five people took a small boat and approached the wrecked battleship.
There seemed to be countless tiny movements in the dark sea, as illusory and ethereal as the rustling of withered grass in the lightless night. However, if you listen carefully, the voice seems a little closer, like whispering in your ear.
Everyone on the boat was silent, and the atmosphere became extremely strange for a while. Griffith looked at the water below. It was pitch black and he couldn't see anything clearly. However, he had an inexplicable feeling——
Just below everyone's feet, there was some extremely huge, indescribable living creature, its outline and tentacles were both astonishingly large. As it swam under the boat, it created waves of deep eddies and uneasiness.
"I seem to have seen something," Griffith actually panicked, "Did you see it?"
"I didn't see anything," Melrose shook his head. "If Miss Laura is scared, you can sit closer to me."
"I didn't see anything." Yamon and Ashura also said.
Erza stuck her head out and stared at the black water below. When she withdrew her gaze and looked at Griffith, the three elves stared at her breathlessly.
"Maybe there is really something waiting for you," the huntress looked at the battleship just a few feet away, "it is waiting for you."
There was a strange smell permeating the wrecked battleship. Although the elves have repeatedly confirmed that the strange green spores crawling all over the ship are just rare marine plants, and the strange clouds they spit into the night are harmless seed colonies, Griffith still feels extremely anxious and uneasy.
The battleship is full of large, damaged holes, and it is dark and gloomy, with no one knows what kind of monsters are hiding there. What came from there were bursts of loud noises like roars and screams, but if you listen carefully, you will feel that the melody is single, and it may just be the sound of the sea breeze passing through the hull.
The five people walked across the deck and arrived at the captain's cabin. Here, they heard bursts of moans and wails. A number of officers and soldiers in naval uniforms lay there.
The crazy sailor was murmuring:
"It's terrible, it's terrible."
"Someone come and save us."
"It's down there."
Griffith and others hurriedly launched treatment and inquiries. However, the surviving navy could only utter garbled words.
"They were attacked," Griffith inspected the sailors' injuries and found that most of them had their limbs broken or hit hard by the amazing force, but the most serious trauma came from their minds. Although their lives were safe for the time being, their eyes were still full of confusion, panic and despair.
They must have witnessed something amazing.
"Come here quickly!" Ashura suddenly shouted, "This man can still talk."
In the corner of the captain's cabin, lay the only officer who could barely communicate. He grabbed Griffith's hand and said in a trembling voice:
"In the bottom hold...
"Bigger than a stable...It's all like twisted rope...The thing in hell is like a very big egg, with dozens of arms, each one like a big bucket with a mouth. When they walk, The mouth will be half-closed... It doesn't look like anything solid, it's all jelly-like... It's full of protruding eyes...
"The one or twenty mouths grow at the end of the arms, like an elephant's trunk, as big as a chimney pipe... They are swinging, opening and closing... They are all fuzzy, black, and have blue or purple rings. ...The Seven Gods, all the old gods, there is still a face at the top..."
Everyone present looked serious. They tentatively moved toward the inside of the ship and found that the scene there was even more astonishing.
The mutilated limbs were in pieces, and blood gurgled down the stairs. Countless ferocious tentacles burst out of the walls, the floor swayed crazily, and a fishy smell hit your face, making you feel like you were in hell.
The exquisite cabin passage has been wrapped in a layer of rough and thick flesh, which is still squirming like an intestine. As flesh and blood seep in, this layer of material continues to grow.
How similar it is to the inside of the giant snail of the Lord of Dreams!
No matter how confused and panicked his mind was, Griffith immediately connected this place with the ancient gods.
"Retreat!" he shouted, "This is not the place we should be!"
"This is it," Yamon responded suddenly and without a clue, "I understand now and am convinced. This is so amazing. I always thought it was just a rumor. I am so shallow."
"Then let's go. Only the Lord Guardian is qualified to set foot here," Melrose said an astonishing sentence with clear words, "Please forgive my temptation and offense."
"That's right," Senior Executive Ashura bowed deeply to Griffith, "This world is out of touch. Your Excellency, Guardian Knight, please retrieve your weapons as soon as possible."
what? What? !
Griffith was stunned. This group of elves clearly knew his true identity, and even knew some kind of weapon that he didn't even know about.
The tentacles in the cabin aisle suddenly became frantic, wrapping around from all directions.
Erza raised her spear and threw it at the approaching group of tentacles. A dazzling silver light flashed past, a shrill scream sounded in the air, and then it was quickly annihilated! Abnormal flesh and blood tissue exploded overwhelmingly, and in the vague deep cave, a dark red bone-like hard material was faintly visible.
The edge of this weird passage immediately grew more tentacles at a crazy speed, entangled to repair the damage. And the three accompanying elves had already disappeared like rabbits.
"Something's wrong here!" Griffith shouted, "This is not a ship, this is some kind of creature! Let's get out of here quickly!"
He shouted as he pulled Erza to take her away from here.
However, the huntress neither retreated nor advanced, but suddenly opened her arms and hugged him tightly.
"???"
Griffith completely couldn't understand the situation in front of him.
Erza whispered in his ear, as close as if she was rubbing his earlobe:
"Griffith, I can only send you here. Don't be afraid, she is waiting for you below."
she? What her? Why her? Who else is there down here? ?
Before the confused Griffith could clear his mind, Erza suddenly pushed hard and pushed him into a large hole.
"ah--!"
Griffith screamed in surprise and fell down from the hole. He smashed into a pile of debris, and then knocked open the unsound floor and fell heavily to the ground.
He raised his head and found that he had arrived at a huge cabin. The space is wide and empty.
There was a pool of seawater on the floor of the cabin, and there were a few rocks protruding from the water. It can be inferred from this that this should be the bottom tank of the battleship. The impact damaged the bottom and allowed seawater to seep in.
What is Erza doing? What did those elves know? What is this place?
Griffith thought of a lot of questions, but the unusual uneasiness drove him to want to escape as soon as possible. Just when he turned around and wanted to climb up along the falling path, he heard a strange sound that only appeared in nightmares and did not belong to any living thing.
"Tekeli-Li! Tekeli-Li!
Then, the sound gradually became lower and finally disappeared. At the same time, the howling of the cold wind in the holes in the hull gradually increased, full of evil and crazy signs.
Then all sounds fell silent. The sea water under your feet was boiling, and a large amount of white foam appeared that made people's hair stand on end.
In the turbulent foam, a horrifying eye appeared.
Then, the second, the third... countless dense eyeballs emerged from the sea water, staring at the war knight.
"What a monster are you!"
Griffith roared, masking his fear with a roar.
He clearly remembered that he had heard this weird sound and experienced this crazy aura, but he couldn't remember it. The distant memory seemed not to come from this world.
At the same time, his cheeks and bones squirmed as if alive. Her long blond hair turned into straight black hair, and her slim figure became burly. In a ball of hot steam, stood an imposing war knight. The emerald headband and belt and purple lip gloss not only did not diminish his majesty, but also made him appear more mysterious and elusive.
Griffith no longer concealed himself and showed his true form, with burning fighting spirit and majestic blood flowing.
Those terrifying eyeballs suddenly closed. Huge, clump-like tissue rises from the sea...
There are light brown or dark textures, wrinkles connecting bones and muscles, and even holes similar to eyes and other organs. Huge, bloodless cracks opened up in the tissue, and parts resembling intestines and internal organs could even be seen through the openings.
The body was trembling slightly and breathing rhythmically. Countless tentacles, each one squirming, looked like a hibernating snake nest. It flows and curls, and its silent movement stirs up turbulent waves in the hearts of the war knights.
The war knight, who was ready to fight with all his strength, was frightened to the point where his heart almost stopped...
This is undoubtedly a monster from the ancient abyss, terrifying and indescribable. Countless eyes appeared on the pus-covered tentacles, glowing green, decomposing and condensing as the limbs squirmed. Every cell in the amorphous body seems to have a living consciousness, rolling and bubbling, reorganizing in an instant, and simulating the generation of various forms and various organs.
Several tentacles intertwined and slowly rose, simulating the shape of a twisted head. It stood up like a human, its asphalt-like tentacles hanging behind it like a girl's long hair hanging down to her ankles.
Immediately afterwards, most of the clumps, tentacles, and other nameless things sank underwater. What remained on the water was a graceful young woman with extremely beautiful appearance.
She was wearing an evening dress, with long silver hair that reached her ankles, delicate wheat-colored skin, and bright eyes that seemed to be able to speak. She stood there, looking at Griffith who fell on the ground, and smiled slightly:
"Good evening, Lieutenant, yes, it's the Commander. I'm sorry that I always forget your little hobby. Have we not seen each other in ten thousand years?"
Griffith was speechless and wasn't even sure if he was still breathing.
The beautiful silver-haired woman then asked:
"The end of reincarnation is about to awaken. Commander, are you ready to end this world and destroy the savior sent by the gods?"
