On High Alert

The once tranquil deep sea.

At this moment, clear fluctuations appeared intermittently.

It was as if the entire ocean had been placed into a sieve, its movements subtle yet rapid.

Visible water ripples are scattered in every corner.

All the inhabitants of the underwater world were on high alert, wondering what force could disturb the entire ocean.

However, they also noticed that all the marine life was normal, simply swimming quietly.

Normally, if something unusual happens in the ocean, marine life would react immediately, but this is not the case now. It seems that only these outsiders are isolated.

Du An, covered in blood and frantically cutting up a corpse, suddenly looked up.

His eyes were splattered with blood, and the world he saw was blood red.

He rushed to his laboratory and watched the strange movements of the entire ocean.

His eyes slowly filled with fear.

Possessing ' Ocean Resonance ', he could clearly sense that another controller had appeared in this underwater world.

Possessing the ' Original Tuomen Acuminate Fungus ', it can clearly sense that another, more primitive and powerful strain has emerged in the deep sea.

This feeling is like all the abilities I'm proud of have been suppressed!

"That's impossible."

Du An stared wide-eyed, muttering to himself. This dramatic reversal was like a bucket of extremely cold water, instantly extinguishing the bloodlust and madness in his heart.

He gradually regained a sliver of reason, and at the same time, that inexplicable sense of fear began to rise and spread.

"In this situation, it can only be..."

"Could it be..."

Does * Tuomen Acuminate Fungus really have a parent organism?

"That's impossible!"

"It was clearly a new species that I cultivated by injecting Tuomen Bacterium into Qin Yiguan's blood. I personally witnessed the birth of the first strain of Tuomen Acuminate Fungus and extracted it, injecting it into my own body!"

Du An's Pupil suddenly contracted. "Speaking of the mother... could it be Qin Yiguan's blood?!"

He certainly couldn't know, nor could he see.

Beneath the entire ocean, a red neural network spanning eighty million miles is now flashing and writhing, just like the blood that has been spilled across the seabed and is flowing freely!

Du An was gripped by deep fear, "Could it be that Qin Yiguan isn't dead...?"

The next moment.

Du An attempted to use the ' Original Tuomen Acuminate Fungus ' within his body to contact the inhabitants of the entire underwater world. Fortunately, its 'signaling' ability remained intact.

All the inhabitants of the underwater world were infected by the Tuomen Acuminate Fungus. At this moment, they all froze, having received Du An's order.

--Everyone, every city, is converging on Giant Whale City, preparing for the highest level of combat, ready to confront the true Mother!

At this very moment.

Giant marine creatures like the giant squid and lion's mane jellyfish, which also carried cities on their backs, all converged on Giant Whale City. In a short while, the more than 90 cities formed a dense, unified whole, united against the outside world!

The Giant Whale City is located at the very center of all the cities.

But Du An's body was still trembling slightly. He first dug out a piece of equipment covered in dust from the deepest part of the laboratory. The equipment had a half-meter-high metal box at the bottom and a crystal-like ring on top.

The letter 'L' is engraved on the side of the box.

Du An frantically tried to connect the equipment to a power source, but at this point, Giant Whale City had abandoned technology for many years, and most of the batteries around him were already broken.

Du An frantically tried one battery after another.

"Dr. Lu said that this device can subdue Qin Yiguan. It's a 'Achilles' he left on Qin Yiguan many years ago. Qin Yiguan has absolutely no power to resist this device; he will die in just 15 seconds!"

"I've always felt this device is unreliable!"

"But it's better than nothing!"

Finally, Du An found a battery with power, and the unknown device slowly started up, its crystal halo emitting a milky white light.

Standing beside the equipment, Du An still felt uneasy.

He turned on his communicator and found the name he hadn't contacted in over a decade.

He clicked the empty button and uttered a voice message with a trembling voice.

"Dr. Lu..."

"That child from back then..."

"That Qin Yiguan from back then, he's here!"

"He found me!"

"I feel like I can't resist him!"

"I have a feeling I'm going to die at his hands today!"

"Could you please help me? You're much stronger than me... After all, you were the leader of Group A at the Ring Research Institute back then."

"Lu Zhoulang!"

Don't pretend you didn't receive my message!

"If I die here today, Qin Yiguan will find you next!"

"None of the experiments you conducted on him back then had anything to do with humanity!"

You won't have it easy either!

Du An shouted angrily, but there was still no response from the communicator!

Du An's breathing trembled as he looked out at the dark and deep ocean beyond the watertight barrier, his Pupil filled with unknown fear.

"Father, don't be afraid, I will protect you."

A young, strong voice suddenly came from behind.

Upon hearing this, Du An's body trembled suddenly. He turned his head inch by inch and saw a young man with short green hair and strong muscles standing behind him.

Du An's voice trembled, "Shui Luo..."

"Father, it's me! I will help you defeat Qin Yiguan!"

Du An's lips began to tremble, "No... you're not Shui Luo, my own son Shui Luo, I killed him... I even drained his blood..."

"Father, what are you saying?"

"I'm perfectly fine."

But then Shui Luo pointed into the distance, and a girl with long green hair slowly walked over.

Shui Luo said, "Father, not only have I come, but Shui Man has come too. We will both help you."

Du An's legs began to tremble. "No... Shui Man tried to bewitch the residents. She wanted them to stop injecting the Tuomen Acuminate Fungus, so I made the strain in her body evolve directly to stage four... Then, my own daughter, Shui Man... she committed suicide."

"You are not Shui Luo, you are not Shui Man!"

"Because they all died by my hand!"

Du An screamed in despair!
