Hela was certain that this was the most terrifying creature she had ever seen in her entire life.
Human fears come in many forms.
But the most primal fear is the fear of the unknown...
The creature in front of them, which could see nothing but its two eyes, clearly met the criteria for being unknown.
At the same time, it perfectly meets the two major fear elements of thalassophobia and megalophobia.
If it weren't for her clear mind constantly protecting her spirit, Hela would have fainted from fright just one glance.
"Holy crap!!! Holy crap!!! How did it get out?! What have you two been doing?!"
The Sea Herring, too, gazed at the slowly approaching Titan Shark behind it and let out a series of heart-wrenching screams.
"Big brother!!! I'm just a Sea Herring exam, I don't mean any harm, please don't pursue me!"
He shouted this, and the huge figure behind him seemed to understand!
The massive, sky-covering body paused slightly before continuing its attack, its gaping maw agape.
"Damn it, let me go... If this keeps up, I'll eat you all too..."
Sea Herring said, on the verge of tears.
However, those honest hands were still gripping Nangong Wu's ankles tightly, as if they were an extension of his body.
"Could you please not pull so tight! It's affecting my speed!"
Nangong Wu shook his leg in annoyance, but Sea Herring clung to him like a stubborn leech.
If they could speak the same language, they would probably be exchanging heated words right now.
The Titan Shark behind him was like an abyss that devoured everything, obliterating all objects in its path.
Despite this terrifying sense of oppression, Hela's peach-pink eyes seemed to be drawn by some force, unable to look away from the other person no matter how hard she tried.
It's so big...
He should be able to swallow himself whole...
How terrifying...
You'll definitely be able to eat your fill...
!
A terrifying thought flashed through Hela's mind, Hela covered her head with one hand in horror.
I can hardly believe that those were my own thoughts.
Why don't we just stop running and fight them directly...?
Another terrifying thought abruptly entered Hela's mind, while an absurdly strong sense of excitement, as if it had a physical form, lingered in her veins.
It's like... one's own body yearns for battle, desires to kill.
"Roar--!!!"
A deafening roar erupted from the latter's abyss-like maw, and a powerful sonic boom blasted towards the three of them.
Nangong Wu's expression changed, and he suddenly clenched his hands together, compressing the seawater to its limit to form a barrier that protected the three of them inside.
The sonic boom struck the barrier, causing the sturdy barrier to vibrate violently like jelly. Even though it blocked most of the power, the powerful sound waves still made Sea Herring and Nangong Wu dizzy.
The raging torrent that was dragging the three of them stopped briefly, and then quickly picked up speed again after Nangong Wu regained his senses.
But even after just a short pause, the Titan Shark behind them had already closed the distance considerably.
Furthermore, as the distance shortened, Nangong Wu could clearly feel that the resistance they faced in moving forward was constantly increasing.
It's like seawater becoming thick.
It's a problem with the fog!
Looking at the eerily quiet smog around him, Nangong Wu realized the problem: it was the smog that was creating obstacles for them!
If you were to look at this under a microscope right now, you would find that these microorganisms that make up smog are actually tiny sharks!
Nangong Wu felt the powerful aura closing in, cold sweat soaked his entire body.
With a thought, a massive stone pillar rose from the ground, blocking the Titan Shark's path.
The Titan Shark smashed it to pieces, and then several more rocks, either from the ground or from the adjacent cliffs, blocked its path.
Seeing that the other person had slowed down slightly, Nangong Wu relaxed a little and quickly rummaged through a strange bag.
"No... no... no..."
One strange thing after another was pulled out of this Xiaoxiao bag.
There's a toilet plunger, Rolex, a barbecue grill, and even a big bed!
These things were left behind like trash, disappearing into that enormous, black hole-like maw.
Finally, Nangong Wu's face lit up with joy, and he pulled out a watch that emitted a pale purple glow.
The watch has a very unique appearance, and the material looks like it is carved from individual crystals.
"Hold on tight! We're going to teleport away!"
Nangong Wu gripped the watch as if he held the entire world in his hands, his face behind the mask beaming with an extremely bright smile.
"You big dummy, go back to eating dirt by yourself!"
He patted the Titan Shark's rear end defiantly, and a small, fair hand suddenly landed on his wrist, where he was holding a watch.
He glanced over instinctively and saw Hela's stunning beauty.
"Hmm... don't worry, I'll get you right away..."
Click!
The sound of bones breaking was like a heavy hammer blow to the other person's heart. His thick arm was actually snapped by that small hand that looked like it could break at the slightest touch!
The excruciating pain caused his hand to go numb, and the watch he was holding fell into the unfathomable depths of the sea.
"Ah!" Several seconds passed before Nangong Wu finally came to his senses and curled up in pain.
At the same time, an even stronger fear filled my entire being.
What is she trying to do? Why did she suddenly attack? Is she planning to kill me? Why didn't she attack before? What is her purpose?
Countless questions echoed in Nangong Wu's mind, causing him to momentarily forget the pain and his brain to stop functioning.
Instinctively, he slightly raised his head and met Hela's large, peach-pink eyes.
Those exquisitely beautiful eyes held no emotion whatsoever, like those of a grim reaper who had come to earth to reap lives.
But the next moment, those cold, stern eyes regained their brilliance. Hela blinked, her eyes filled with confusion and clarity.
She stared blankly at the extra joint on Nangong Wu's arm for a moment, then screamed in fright.
"Ah! What happened to you? How did you break your arm?"
After saying that, he was about to go forward to help her up, but the latter retreated in fear.
"W-what's wrong?"
Hela was completely bewildered. In her eyes, she had just been running for her life. Then, a blur appeared before her eyes, and Nangong Wu's arm was broken.
She had no idea what was happening during that time.
Nangong Wu's mind was also a complete mess. He couldn't understand what Hela was trying to do. Mingming perfectly fine before, then suddenly broke his hand, and now she had suddenly turned back into a harmless person.
The two confused people stared at each other, and the seawater suddenly stopped flowing.
Suddenly, it dawned on them: weren't they still being chased?
Turning around, I saw that mountain-like figure standing quietly in place, his gaze looking behind them.
