The Young Lady's Strength
Recalling the first person Han Dong killed upon entering the world of "The Mist," Mrs. Carmody.
Its body can be assembled without limit, but it is difficult for ordinary people to deal with. However... in Han Dong's opinion, it is not particularly difficult to deal with.
Of course, Mrs. Carmody may very well be just a low-level believer.
In addition, Han Dong also heard a key word from this Miss Nicole.
"Summoning the Void... instead of the Deep Sea?"
After a period of adjustment, Nicole's stuttering became less pronounced.
"The deep sea... is just a part of the void."
"A great many lives have come to you... here, because of these unruly cultists who are conducting indiscriminate summoning across the globe, even tearing open doors... leading to the Void Depths."
"No wonder... even the monsters in the mist kill each other; they don't belong to the same kind after all."
"Would you be willing to help me..." Nicole asked softly.
"Um."
Of course, Han Dong only verbally agreed.
The Hidden Event doesn't necessarily have to be completed. Besides, Han Dong doesn't particularly trust this girl from the deep sea. If it's not handled properly and something goes wrong at some point...
Han Dong had to weigh the pros and cons, and the first thing he needed to do was to verify whether this Miss Nicole had enough value to be of use.
As for the verification method, Han Dong left it behind in advance.
The school bus slowly came to a stop in the middle of the mountain road.
"Mr. Nicholas ... we can hear the sound of a mountain spring here; the stream should be nearby. Should we select a group to go fetch water, or should we all go?"
"I can go by myself."
Han Dong had already discussed this matter with Nicole beforehand, and Nicole seemed quite interested in the clear mountain spring.
I took Nicole's hand, just in case she misbehaved and got out of the car with me.
The sensation of holding hands is completely different from that of humans.
Its skin surface is covered with a layer of low-viscosity viscous liquid, giving it a cool and slippery feel.
Han Dong carried a large two-gallon water bucket on his back and quickly ventured into the mountain mist.
As the two left.
A Conservative Faction woman on the bus, who was very dissatisfied with the foul-mouthed writer, muttered in a low voice:
"Mr. David ...why don't we just leave? That way we can get rid of this terrifying girl...I have a feeling that Nicholas might be bewitched by her."
Such a beautiful appearance could very well mean she is the reincarnation of Hell Succubus.
Having bad breath is definitely a bad habit.
There are quite a few people in the automotive industry who don't like Han Dong, but Han Dong contributions cannot be ignored.
At that moment, David, the protagonist Han Dong's loyal fan, immediately objected.
"No... there are some things that happened in the supermarket that you don't know. If it weren't for Mr. Nicholas, we probably would have become food for monsters long ago."
"Without Mr. Nicholas, our decision to Explore the Mist this time would have almost certainly meant our demise if we had encountered any danger."
The Protagonist Halo plays a significant role.
The woman said nothing more.
While Han Dong went to fetch water, everyone leaned back in their seats to rest and relax their tense nerves.
But then, not long after I closed my eyes... smack!
Things were even slamming heavily against the car windows, startling many people so much that they fell into the aisle.
"What is that!?"
David turned his head and scanned the surroundings of the bus, but found nothing.
Snap!
Immediately following, another heavy slapping sound came from the adjacent car window... This time, a white handprint was left on the window.
"The windows will break if this continues... Open the car door! Everyone focus on the car door, but do not fire! Gunshots will attract more monsters, we'll deal with them with melee weapons."
David focused intently, standing at the front door with his axe in hand.
A young man who enjoys outdoor adventures took out a homemade crossbow and aimed it at the car door.
Sizzle~
The moment the front door opened, the monster seemed to notice the opening as well.
Slap slap slap~~ A series of handprints immediately spread towards the car door.
I have a feeling the time is about right.
David chopped it down with his axe!
Click!
The axe blade cut into the target smoothly, and gray blood flowed from the wound.
A humanoid monster with a misty body appeared.
Its face is completely blank, smooth like a boiled egg, and its eyes and all its senses are focused on the palm of its hand... It observes the inside by tapping on the window.
David's axe strike only sliced open the target's shoulder; it was not enough to kill him.
Click click click~~
The monster's smooth head suddenly split open with a huge gap, big enough to bite David's head off.
At the crucial moment!
Whoosh!
A metal crossbow bolt pierced the monster's head, killing it instantly!
"Well done!!"
Still shaken, David stared at the monster's fallen corpse and immediately gave the young man a thumbs-up.
Just when everyone in the car thought the danger had passed... bang bang bang—the sound of glass being banged against it came again.
"Close the door!!"
No longer a monster.
Seemingly sensing the death of their companion, these monsters, which could conceal themselves in the mist, immediately surrounded the school bus, numbering ten or even more.
Click...
One of the car windows has a crack.
Just as everyone was gripped by panic... something unexpected happened.
From the mist, twenty pink octopus tentacles with suction cups suddenly stretched out, precisely wrapping around the invisible monsters... dragging them all into the mist within five seconds, leaving none behind.
The entire busload of people were left completely dumbfounded.
Han Dong's perspective.
In the mist, about twenty meters away from the school bus.
Han Dong originally led Nicole to the mountains to fetch water, hoping to give Nicole a good boost of nutrition.
The timing was just right, as if the monster hidden deep in the mountains was deliberately waiting for Han Dong and Nicole to leave before attacking the entire group.
Little did they know, these monsters couldn't escape Han Dong's fully activated Lesser Demon Eye.
Just as Han Dong was preparing to rush back to provide support... Miss Nicole suddenly moved.
Gently lift her right arm, and small pink tentacles immediately grow from her palm.
The seemingly weak octopus tentacles grew rapidly in a short period of time, instantly transforming into ferocious tentacles that swept around the invisible monsters surrounding the bus.
Once touched by the suction cup.
The monster instantly lost its ability to move and was crushed and absorbed by the tentacles within a short time, all of it being absorbed into Nicole's body.
This scene left Han Dong completely dumbfounded.
The strength test, originally scheduled for the water-fetching period, is no longer necessary.
The origins of this Deep Sea Girl are perhaps even more terrifying than Han Dong anticipated.
"The ' Mist Eye ' are life forms from the Gray Belt; they are very weak... They act in groups and feed specifically on other weak life forms."
Nicole gave Han Dong a brief explanation of the monster.
"Um."
"I can clearly feel that there is a very clean water source not far away... I need to wash my body. I have been on land for too long and my body has been contaminated with too many impurities."
"...OK."
For some reason, Han Dong had a feeling that things might take a strange turn.
