The Screaming Deep

Chapter 290 287 Screaming Deep

The Deep stepped out of the door, taking only a few steps before the scene around him shifted in the blink of an eye.

He found himself back in the lobby of Vought Tower's first floor.

Surrounding him were the employees trapped within the building.

"Vought f*ck!!"

A wave of fear washed over The Deep; he'd had more than enough scares for one day.

Lin Feng sensed everything happening in the lobby. More and more people were noticing the strangeness of Vought Tower, and panic was spreading among both ordinary people and supes.

The Feng Hou Qimen that Lin Feng had cast enveloped the entire Vought Tower, making it impossible for even supes to escape.

"Babe, most of them are on the first floor. That Deep and Black Noir are both there."

Homelander wasn't in Vought Tower. Lin Feng figured the guy was probably out on a mission.

Which was fine by him. Without their strongest fighter, Lin Feng could do whatever he wanted in this building.

Thump!

Thump!

Thump!

Like hammer blows against everyone's heartstrings, the eerie sound reverberated through their minds.

Those who had been desperately trying to escape the building all stopped in their tracks, filled with apprehension.

They turned together toward the source of the sound, where patches of blackish-red blood floated in the air, forming a grotesque human-shaped outline.

The outline roughly resembled a figure reaching out a hand, then hopping like a stiff corpse.

Each landing produced a heavy thud.

The sound seemed to carry some kind of eerie power, striking directly at people's souls.

"What the f*ck is that?!"

The Deep pointed at the horrifying blood-red figure, his scream like that of a woman being raped.

"Looks like Invisible Man?!"

The human-shaped outline, visible only through blood, immediately brought Invisible Man to mind.

An employee blurted it out, and The Deep's face relaxed slightly.

While Invisible Man's body surface was made of indestructible carbon-based material, his strength was nowhere near his own.

The Deep could breathe underwater and swim as fast as a fish.

His body could withstand high water pressure, so his strength and defense were naturally higher than Invisible Man's.

If it was Invisible Man, The Deep really wasn't too worried.

"Hey! Invisible Man!! What's wrong with you?"

The Deep calmed himself and called out as if greeting him.

However, to his surprise, Invisible Man completely ignored him.

"Roar!!"

A soul-shaking roar, like a tangible sonic attack.

It slammed toward The Deep's direction, the terrifying sound waves rippling through the air, instantly passing through his body.

The sound waves traveled through the entire lobby at an incredible speed, shattering all the glass in the first-floor doors.

Shatter!!!

The broken glass fell to the ground with a crashing sound.

The ordinary people behind The Deep couldn't withstand the sonic attack. Most of them covered their ears, spitting blood, and collapsed on the ground, screaming in agony.

"Aaaah!!!"

For a moment, miserable screams echoed throughout the lobby.

Thump!

At that moment, a figure suddenly jumped down from an unknown floor above.

The heroic figure landed heavily in front of the zombified Invisible Man, creating a spiderweb of cracks in the ground.

"What's wrong with you, you pervert?"

Maeve hadn't left Vought Tower either, and she looked at Invisible Man, covered in blood, with a strange expression.

Because he was invisible, Maeve couldn't see Invisible Man's face at the moment.

"Roar!"

Maeve was answered with a roar filled only with bloodlust.

Maeve frowned, sensing a wave of danger coming from the Invisible Man in front of her.

But this guy is usually just a peeping tom; besides being invisible, his other abilities are nothing to write home about.

He's ranked at the bottom of The Seven, just like The Deep.

How did he suddenly gain sonic abilities, and with such power?

"You're better when you're not quiet, at least you won't be sneaking into the women's restroom," Maeve taunted Invisible Man, then clenched her fist, a terrifying power gathering in her hand.

Bang!!!

Then, Maeve punched out, striking Invisible Man, who was less than a meter away.

In that short distance, Maeve's punch created a muffled whooshing sound, her delicate fist tearing through the air, sending Invisible Man flying.

The invisible figure retreated rapidly, faster than the blink of an eye.

Across from Maeve, an explosion suddenly rang out, and a distant building column was violently broken in half by something. Then, a crack nearly ten meters wide appeared in the wall behind the column.

"F*ck!! I've wanted to do that for ages!!"

Maeve shouted excitedly, completely unaware of how terrifying her actions were to the employees behind her.

Maeve, known for her heroic and spirited persona, suddenly revealed another side of herself, influenced by something unknown.

"Maeve?! What have you done?!!!"

The Deep covered his head in shock, yelling in disbelief.

He knew they weren't exactly saints, but there were still many ordinary people behind them.

If anyone filmed this and posted it online, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Thinking of this, The Deep turned his head sharply.

The ordinary employees behind him were all howling in pain, injured by the sonic wave from earlier. No one noticed Maeve's strange behavior.

Thank goodness, thank goodness.

The Deep breathed a sigh of relief. If they had really filmed it, then he would have had to go on a killing spree with Black Noir and Maeve, although he really didn't like doing that.

Turning back, The Deep saw Maeve's body rising and falling rhythmically.

Heavy, powerful breathing came from her, sounding like she had taken some kind of stimulant.

"Maeve?"

The Deep called out in fear, his heart as fragile as a piece of crystal, unable to withstand any shock.

Crash!!

Suddenly! The sound of rubble shifting made The Deep shudder.

He bit his lower lip tightly, looking in disbelief at the cracked wall.

Invisible Man, who had been invisible, revealed his face. In the slowly dissipating dust, a terrifying face slowly emerged.

"Vought f*ck!!!"

The Deep shouted in terror, taking a few steps back.

Maeve frowned deeply, staring at Invisible Man in shock.

Black Noir came to The Deep's side, holding his head without saying a word, but his actions showed that he was also very shocked.

Invisible Man's face was very different from before.

His pale skin was devoid of any color, and his blood-red eyes revealed a repressed, bloodthirsty desire that made people afraid to meet his gaze.

Four long fangs protruded from his snarling mouth, and a black-gray aura of death emanated from it.

Dark green veins bulged under his skin like large worms, and his only remaining hand had undergone some slight deformation, its sharp nails easily cutting five marks into the ground.

The zombie Invisible Man stood up strangely, as if lifted by a string tied behind his neck.
