From Zero to Hero in the Doomsday - Chapter 1132
Chapter 1132 Blackwater Abyss
Whoosh ~
When Chen Guangda pressed his hand on the pattern gathering point, he did not use any liquid to verify it. The pitch-black door opened automatically. However, the space behind the door was different from other places. There was no complicated and monotonous passageway, nor was there any strange creature he had never seen before. There was only an invisible expanse of calm stagnant water.
“This isn’t too good …”
Chen Guangda instinctively knitted his brows and took out a flashlight to shine on the opposite side. Who knew that after a straight light shot out, it would soon be devoured by the boundless darkness. It was as if it was in the middle of the night on the sea. Everything except the sea was seawater.
“Not deep! We should be able to pass through …”
Xiao Wei squatted at the door and used the Corpse Claw Spear to probe the bottom. She fished out another one in the water. Who knew that the water was actually ink black? Although it wasn’t sticky or odorless, it gave off a very strange feeling. Chen Guangda took a deep breath and said, “Neither Zhu Fei nor Liu Hao should wish for me to die right now!”
“Huala ~”
Chen Guangda directly stepped in. The ice-cold black water immediately drowned his ankle. Chen Quan and the others followed without hesitation. Over a thousand soldiers also gathered behind them. However, Chen Guangda also said, “Everyone, line up in two and follow the people in front. I don’t know what’s going on down there. Don’t step on them empty-handed!”
“I know!”
The warriors nodded their heads one after another. Su Yan, Liu Qianqian, and the others followed closely behind. Under Chen Guangda’s lead, they slowly walked forward. The remaining warriors stayed in the specimen storehouse and lit up their flashlights. The warriors followed the markings one after another. More than 30,000 people were almost gathered.
“Look, are there clouds in the sky …”
Brother Gou suddenly lifted his flashlight and shone it into the sky. The light from the flashlight could not reach the top either, but there were many clouds in the sky. However, Chen Guangda said, “I think this place is very likely to be a living breeding farm. Therefore, everyone must pay more attention to the water and head, so as to ensure that there are no monsters hidden inside!”
“This place is a bit too big …”
Brother Gou sighed in frustration. The size of this place had already far exceeded their imagination. It was as if they had arrived at another space. Moreover, as they walked further and further away, the door behind them had gradually turned into a small dot of light, almost disappearing from their sight.
“Jiang Zhiyang! Put the laser pen on the shelf …”
Chen Guangda suddenly stopped and looked around. There was nothing in this damned place that could be used as a reference. Once the door behind them disappeared, they would definitely deviate. Jiang Zhiyang quickly took out a tripod and placed it in the water. He pressed the laser pen switch on it and a straight green laser beam shot into the distance.
“Let’s go!”
Chen Guangda shook his ice-cold feet and slowly walked along the green laser. The trident he picked up was carried by several soldiers. Although it was not always effective, it could be saved as long as it could be activated at a critical juncture.
“There’s someone on the left …”
Ever since Xiao Wei suddenly turned around and shone her flashlight to the right, the warriors also quickly raised their crossbows. Following that, they saw a row of lights flickering towards them. Clearly, it was a group of humans holding flashlights. Chen Guangda immediately picked up the exaggerated trident and shouted, “Who are you people? Quickly identify yourselves!”
Unexpectedly, the other party acted as if he didn’t hear anything. He neither answered nor slowed down. He still raised his lightning and walked straight towards them. The soldiers immediately spread out to form an attack formation. However, as the other party got closer and closer, Brother Gou suddenly cried out in alarm, “It’s Liu Hao and the others. Why are they so deaf?”
“I’m not deaf, I don’t think I can see us …”
Chen Guangda frowned suspiciously. He only saw Liu Hao and his group of about 30 people, all of them raising their flashlights and carefully moving forward. However, their gazes clearly did not have any focus. They actually turned a blind eye to the over 1,000 of them. There seemed to be a hint of confusion in their expressions, as if they had lost their way.
“It’s good that you can’t see them. Kill them for me …”
Chen Quan laughed sinisterly and waved his hand forcefully. The warriors immediately shot out the arrows in unison, but who would have thought that there would be a crashing sound of water. Hundreds of crossbow arrows actually pierced through Liu Hao and the others’ bodies, inexplicably shooting into the water, not even taking away a single hair from them.
“Holy shit! It’s an illusion …”
Brother Gou opened his mouth wide in shock, but Chen Quan still didn’t believe in evil. He directly rushed forward with the Corpse Claw Spear and stabbed fiercely, but he still passed through Liu Hao’s body as if he had encountered a group of ghosts. However, Liu Hao and the others suddenly stopped and began to look around.
“It’s not an illusion, it should be a projection …”
Liu Qianqian walked directly to her brother’s front and pointed at Liu Hao’s right hand. “My brother’s left hand has a brown birthmark, but now his birthmark has appeared in his right hand, so it should be like looking in a mirror. What we see is actually their mirror projection. They are probably still far from us!”
“Who can read their lips? Let’s see what they’re talking about …”
Chen Guangda stared at Liu Hao noncommittally. Liu Hao and the others were gathered together to discuss something, but they couldn’t hear anything. However, a middle-aged warrior quickly said, “Liu Hao said that this is the first trial, and the difficulty is even greater than they imagined. I’m afraid that they will have to pay a great price to get close to the Ten Thousand Bones Cave!”
“What do you mean by the first level? Do you have to clear all the checkpoints to see the BOSS?”
Brother Gou and the others all looked at Liu Hao with puzzled expressions. However, the middle-aged warrior said, “The young man behind Liu Hao seems to be the descendant of the gravekeeper. He said that there are three great demonic beasts guarding this place. The first is the Water Demon, the second is the Vajra King, and the third is the Fiery Golden Eye Beast. Only after passing these three levels can one enter the Ten Thousand Bones Cave and obtain the final treasure!”
“Who gave this name? Why is it the same as Journey to the West?”
Brother Gou spat in disdain, but Cong Xiaowei said, “I understand. Guangda’s previous conjecture was not wrong. I’m afraid this place is really a living breeding ground. The ancients thought it was some kind of demonic beast if they couldn’t figure it out. I guess it was the living bodies of those specimens, but it should be extremely aggressive!”
“Lord Guang! They’re talking about Zhu Fei …”
The middle-aged warrior suddenly took a few steps forward. He stared at Liu Hao’s lips and said, “They said that Zhu Fei must have already entered. Those messy symbols on the wall are definitely the signals left behind by Zhu Fei. They should first capture a few corpse collectors and torture them before entering. Chen Guangda, that bastard … with Zhu Fei’s help, he will definitely walk more smoothly than them!”
“Ha ~ Looks like they’re really lost …”
Chen Guangda proudly lit a cigarette, but the middle-aged warrior also said, “Someone asked if Zhu Fei was with us. Liu Hao said that Zhu Fei had two sides and three slashes. He seemed to have feelings and righteousness, but in fact, he wanted Chen Guangda to be cannon fodder to help him clear the obstacles on the road, and finally a mantis to catch cicadas!”
“Hmph ~ What the hell does he know …”
Chen Guangda coldly snorted in disdain. However, Liu Hao and the others didn’t say anything before they left. Not long later, they slowly disappeared into the darkness. However, Chen Guangda looked at Liu Qianqian and said, “Qian Qian! If I really killed your big brother, wouldn’t you be sad?”
“Of course I will be sad …”
Liu Qianqian nodded her head without hesitation and said helplessly, “I talked to my brother carefully once, but he is unwilling to give up his grand ambition. It is also possible that the Red Corpse Bug affected him, so I can only choose to be neutral. No matter who you two kill, I will not interfere. This is the only choice I can make!”
“I see. I will definitely not make things difficult for you …”
Chen Guangda tossed away the cigarette butt and continued walking forward. Who knew how far they had yet to walk? Suddenly, a ripple appeared on the water surface in front of them. Chen Guangda hurriedly stopped and pulled out the Corpse Claw Spear. He stared at the increasingly violent water surface with a serious expression. Soon, everyone sucked in a mouthful of cold air.
A naked woman slowly floated up from the water. Her wet long hair covered her entire body. Only a pair of white eyeballs could be seen from her hair. However, she immediately raised a cigarette butt and glared at Chen Guangda with a venomous expression, as if she was questioning him why he was throwing rubbish around.
“I didn’t throw this. It was that guy named Liu Hao just now. They can all testify for me. I don’t even know how to smoke …”
Chen Guangda shook his head shamelessly. Brother Gou and the others nodded their heads desperately. This female ghost looked like the big boss water demon guarding this place. Seeing her frighteningly white skin, it would be terrible if she drowned them all here.
“Sister! It’s really not me. I don’t have any cigarettes in my pocket at all …”
Chen Guangda innocently flipped open his jacket pocket. This exquisite acting skill was so exquisite that he almost wanted to deceive himself. However, the water demon actually didn’t say anything and disappeared into the water. Brother Gou immediately grabbed his head and said in surprise, “Let’s go. She couldn’t have been a scenic area manager when she was alive, right?”
“Don’t talk nonsense! Hurry up and run …”
Chen Guangda didn’t expect that he would be able to fool them like this. He immediately led everyone and ran away. The straight laser beam clearly pointed the way. However, only two or three minutes later, miserable screams suddenly sounded from afar. Many people also roared angrily.
“Haha ~ It’s Liu Hao and the others shouting. It must be the Water Demon who went to find them to fine them …”
Brother Gou laughed happily. No one expected the Water Demon to be so heartless, but the calm black water suddenly fluctuated violently. The waves quickly wet their knees, and the screams came from a place that was as terrifying as a tsunami.
“It’s Liu Hao …”
Chen Guangda’s eyes suddenly narrowed. He saw seven or eight bat men suddenly fly into the sky, dragging Liu Hao and the others to flee towards them quickly. When they shone their flashlights over, he saw a ten meter tall wave fiercely smash Liu Hao’s subordinates away, swallowing them up like a big mouth.
“Holy shit! What a powerful water demon …”
Everyone was dumbfounded as they watched the shocking waves. Fortunately, the waves were heading forward. Otherwise, they would have suffered as well. However, before their shock was over, another giant black water fist suddenly jumped up from the black water and smashed into the air.
“Ah …”
The Batman in midair was actually thrown into the water. Along with Liu Hao and the others, they all screamed and fell into the water. Chen Guangda immediately swallowed heavily, but the warriors suddenly reacted. They hurriedly stuffed their cigarettes into their underwear, afraid that the Water Demon would discover their misfortune.
