Chapter 178 Eye Monster
As if to answer Lu Yize's question, the Fifth Squad Leader lowered his voice and said, "Mental control, using your ability to open your space."
He glanced up at Lu Yize and said, "You two may have had a deep exchange of supernatural abilities, or perhaps it's another kind of spiritual power that Mu Fei mentioned before, which we'll call spiritual power for now. Your spiritual powers should have been communicated further."
He wasn't too surprised when he said this, since everyone knew about the relationship between Lu Yize and Jiang Yue, so he wasn't too surprised. What's so surprising about deep communication? They've probably had countless close encounters with each other.
The laboratory was pitch black, and he couldn't see Lu Yize's expression, but Jiang Yue grabbed Lu Yize's hand and held it firmly.
If I hadn't grown a brain now and realized the location was wrong, I probably would have just gnawed and marked it as usual.
The sea beast, which had been struggling, suddenly fell silent after the monster appeared. Lu Yize took Jiang Yue's hand and used his mental power to probe the surrounding situation.
In the pitch-black seabed, the stillness exuded a deathly silence. After they remained silent, the low temperature seemed to penetrate the skin, seeping inward along the pores, chilling them to the bone.
Everywhere you look, there are corpses soaking in strange liquid or half-dead test subjects. The sea beasts that were originally resisting fiercely lost all their strength to resist after that monster came in.
The ground was littered with the remains of sea beasts. No, it wasn't just sea beasts. Lu Yize raised the faint light-elemental energy storage ring in his hand, which happened to be aimed at the rows of people's hands.
The heads were cut off at the arm and piled up haphazardly. Just as they approached, the box full of heads suddenly shook, and a rapidly crawling hand suddenly jumped out from the pile of heads.
The hand reached for the Fifth District Captain's face. He took a step back and flung out a fluorescent poison blade, but the hand dodged in time, even showing intelligence, and quickly retreated after realizing it was being attacked.
Climbing onto the shelf full of hands, just as it thought it was escaping, a small black hole sucked it in and strangled it.
Lu Yize put away the light-type ability storage ring in his hand. "These monsters are sensitive to light-type abilities."
He thought of Sun Jianbai's superpower, the light-based ability, and the successful experiment...
The Fifth Squad Leader touched his face and cautiously said, "I also have light-based abilities, but they are mutated light-based abilities. However, judging from the attack on that monster just now, these monsters are afraid of light."
Lu Yize frowned. Jiang Yue, whom he had been holding, suddenly turned her head, and her body shifted slightly as she did so. Lu Yize's arm was pulled by her, and he looked in the direction she was tilting.
"what did you see?"
Jiang Yue's supernatural powers surged, her fingernails and teeth bared, revealing an attack form. Lu Yize immediately released his mental power, which rapidly climbed and expanded, penetrating through layers of structure.
This time, not only Jiang Yue, but also Lu Yize heard the call of an ancient voice. Lu Yize looked up and said, "Above the tenth floor."
They can't even figure out where they are now, but they can roughly judge how far away they are from the sound.
"What?" The only one who didn't react at all, the Fifth District Captain, asked in confusion, looking towards the direction where Lu Yize had spoken.
Before he could think any further, Lu Yize had already tried to re-condense the spatial vortex, but the next moment, the airflow was dispersed, water vapor rushed in, and the Fifth District Captain, caught off guard, was instantly submerged by seawater.
With seawater filling his ears, eyes, and nose, he immediately used his supernatural ability to protect the last bit of air in front of him. After failing, Lu Yize immediately gave up on the space-crossing technique.
The location of the other party was set with some kind of supernatural power, making it impossible to move using spatial power. Before the Fifth District Captain was about to drown, Lu Yize re-isolated a new space.
With the seawater blocked out, a large amount of air rushed in. The fifth squad leader gasped for breath and coughed up all the water from his mouth and nose.
Jiang Yue was also completely soaked, with water dripping from her hair. Fortunately, she had only recently learned to breathe properly, so she wasn't as disheveled as the Fifth District Captain.
“There’s a strange force up there.” As soon as Lu Yize finished speaking, he used his supernatural ability to create a small vortex. This time, he didn’t make a mistake. Lu Yize took the lead and pulled Jiang Yue into it. The Fifth District Captain paused for a moment and then followed closely behind.
As the three emerged from the whirlpool, cries echoed around them—the cries of sea beasts, humans, strange creatures, and exotic plants, accompanied by the sounds of chopping and hacking.
The three of them were in a secluded corner. Lu Yize peeked out and found that this floor was brighter than the previous one, but only relatively speaking. This floor was enveloped in a ghostly green light.
“What is this…” The Fifth Squad Leader vaguely sensed that the wall they were touching was somewhat strange.
As soon as the muttering ended, the wall they were leaning against suddenly turned its head, revealing a face covered with countless eyes, all locked onto the location. But when it realized there was nothing behind it, it turned its head back.
The fifth squad leader's heart was in his throat; he was just relieved that Jiang Yue had reacted in time.
The wall before them—no, it should be described as a monster covered in eyes—moved and crawled toward the sound of chopping.
As it moved, the sea beasts scattered around it struggled frantically, but they could not escape its clutches. A sea beast cub was caught, and the next moment, it was stuffed into the monster's mouth and chewed to death.
