Chapter 197: Fear of the Deep Sea
[On January 26, 2001, a huge fog suddenly rose outside the Port of Philadelphia. ]
[All electronic communication equipment in the fog-shrouded area failed. ]
[After more than half an hour, the fog dissipated automatically, but after the fog dissipated, all people and animals in the dock area shrouded by the fog fell into a coma, without exception. ]
[A day later, 348 security guards and workers in the dock area died one after another after being in a coma for a day. The cause of death... suspected to be drowning. ]
Drowning?
After seeing the word "drowning", Ailin's eyebrows slightly condensed, and then accelerated the speed of the mouse sliding down.
As the mouse slid down.
A dozen whitish photos and several small videos showing different pictures were imprinted in Ailin's eyelids.
After glancing at the corpses in the photos that seemed to have been soaked in sea water for a long time and turned white all over.
Ailin clicked on one of the videos.
The video seems to have been shot in a hospital ward.
On the three beds in the ward, there were three middle-aged men of similar age with slightly rough skin.
In the first few seconds of the video, everything was normal.
But in the next moment.
The Latino man on the middle bed suddenly convulsed all over, and then seawater began to gushed out of his mouth and nose, and the gushing seawater quickly wet the bed sheets...
Soon.
The convulsing Latino man calmed down.
And the surging seawater from his mouth and nose slowly stopped gushing.
"Is he dead?"
Looking at the quiet man in the video, Ailin immediately realized that he was dead.
After the Latino man on the middle bed died, the middle-aged men on the other two beds soon showed similar symptoms.
In the end.
Not long after, the two were "drowned" on the beds by the surging seawater from their mouths and noses.
Wait!
Why am I so sure that the liquid gushing out of the mouths and noses of those guys is "seawater" even though it's through the video?
The feeling that the brain naturally makes a judgment without confirmation at a glance.
Is this... some kind of information pollution?
Ailin narrowed his eyes and quickly recalled the "rotten" smell of the deformed "Kingpin" before.
Another monster similar to "Kingpin", or...
I don't know if the incident happened a few days ago, or if there are too many people involved in this case, and there are too many cases for SHIELD to count.
There are many similar videos in this folder.
After simply flipping through a few similar videos, Ailin's attention was focused on the last photo in the folder.
It was a photo of a ghost ship almost swallowed by fog.
After staring at the photo for a few seconds, Ailin suddenly felt sleepy.
"Ha..."
After a sudden yawn, Ailin's eyelids seemed to be hung with lead blocks, and he seemed to be falling asleep.
Between half asleep and half awake.
Ailin felt as if he had come to a dark deep sea, and his body was rapidly sinking in this dark deep sea, sinking... sinking again.
Pu opened his mouth.
Gulp, gurgle...
A mouthful of salty sea water suddenly poured into Ailin's mouth.
Gulp...
A string of bubbles emerged and rushed upwards quickly. At the same time, surging from all directions, almost endless pressure quickly fell on Ailin.
Dark environment...
Powerless struggle...
Added to the increasing pressure...
Quickly bred negative emotions such as depression, despair, and fear, as well as the deepest despair!
In this endless despair.
A faint green light suddenly appeared in front of Ailin.
Then, an extremely huge shipwreck suddenly appeared in Ailin's eyes.
It was a very large cruise ship.
Under the strange green light, the huge cruise ship also showed a strange green color.
The hull was covered with a large number of algae and shellfish...
And behind the cruise ship, in the pale green sea water illuminated by the green light from the cruise ship, the outline of a huge monster vaguely emerged...
Just as Ailin stared at the outline of the huge monster.
The huge monster behind the shipwreck seemed to have noticed Ailin's "attention".
The next second.
A huge tentacle like an octopus suddenly emerged from the pale green sea water behind the shipwreck, stirring the sea water and quickly attacking Ailin.
"This is..."
As the giant tentacle approached, Ailin suddenly discovered that the disc-shaped objects on the octopus's tentacles were not octopus suction cups, but huge eyeballs.
When Ailin saw the huge eyeballs, the hundreds of strange eyeballs on the octopus's tentacles also locked onto "Ailin".
The moment he was locked onto the hundreds of huge eyeballs, a creepy feeling suddenly struck Ailin's heart.
"I... saw... you..."
With a vague murmur resounding in Aylin's heart, the behemoth behind the sunken ship emerged from the shadow behind the sunken ship at a speed that seemed slow but extremely fast.
It was a terrifying creature that was beyond human understanding and could not be described in normal language.
It is beyond the limits of human imagination, a horror from the deep sea!
"ah!"
Almost at the moment that behemoth completely surfaced.
With the clown's "intuition" strengthened and the almost rebellious crazy warning, Aylin's consciousness instantly "awoke" with the help of that touch of fear.
"call······"
"call·······"
Aylin was sitting in front of the computer, breathing heavily, and his whole body was almost wet with cold sweat.
Big beads of sweat kept rolling down Ailin's face.
Tick tock·····
The ticking sound fell on the computer table in front of Aylin.
"That was..."
As a professional hypnotist and professional fortune teller.
Aylin quickly realized what he had just experienced.
"Lucid dreaming", or in other words, at that moment, Aylin, who had super inspiration, had a connection with an unknown existence directly because of the photo of the ghost ship.
In that moment.
Through dreams, I perceived the ghost ship in the photo, and...
The terrifying presence behind the ghost ship.
After taking a deep breath and calming down a little, Aylin thought with an ugly expression.
"...What is the existence behind that sunken ship just now?"
If it weren't for the crazy warning of the clown's "intuition" that was almost rebellious, and the terrifying stimulation that was almost like facing death, it aroused the survival instinct in Aylin's heart.
Breaking the shackles from the "deep sea".
Maybe, at this time, Aylin will face the existence behind the ghost ship!
Aylin had a strong premonition.
If he hadn't seized the opportunity to wake up at that moment, it might not be that easy for him to wake up again.
"Curiosity killed the cat!"
After taking a deep breath, Aylin realized for the first time that being too curious was really not a good thing.
Especially for a very spiritual person like him.
"Suck, suck..."
At this time, the little monster that followed Aylin into the study seemed to feel the owner's heart palpitations and uneasiness. It stretched out its big tongue and kept licking Aylin's palm, as if it wanted to soothe the pain in the owner's heart. Wipe out uneasiness.
Feeling the wet and warm touch on his palm, Aylin's mood relaxed a little. He rubbed the monster's big tongue and whispered:
"Don't worry, I'm fine."
Although the scene just now was too weird, Aylin was not scared to death by a weird "nightmare".
certainly.
With the lesson learned just now.
Aylin also realized that these strange materials provided by SHIELD should not be read randomly.
Just some ordinary extraordinary events or aberrant monsters.
What if we encounter another incident like the ghost ship just now, and encounter a creature similar to or even more terrifying than the terrifying monster behind the ghost ship?
Then, Aylin might not be able to escape from a place like "Deep Sea Dreamland" again.
"Now that SHIELD has given me this information, I have to be careful."
"Well, every time before you click on a folder, you should divine whether there is any danger!"
"With my current spirituality and the help of divination rituals, even beings with a higher status than me cannot block my perception..."
After opening the information next time, I got an early warning device.
Aylin once again recalled the words that echoed in his heart just now after he saw the countless eyeballs on the octopus tentacles.
"I... saw... you..."
After recalling this sentence.
Aylin felt an inexplicable feeling of irritation in his heart.
This feels wrong.
Could it be that...
After I was seen by that terrifying existence just now, what brand or curse did it put on my body?
Think of this.
Aylin immediately used the paper man's ability to stand in, trying to transfer some unknown curse that might exist on his body to the paper man's body.
but······
The paper man who had been given the ability to stand in by Aylin showed no reaction.
"No response, could it be that I'm overthinking it?"
Looking at the unresponsive paper man substitute, Ailin felt a little doubt in his heart, and even wondered if he was overthinking it.
But as soon as this idea came up, Aylin rejected it.
"No...it's not necessarily that I'm overthinking it. It could also be that the level of gaze or curse is too high and cannot be replaced by my paper double."
Think of this.
Aylin relaxed his mind, closed his eyes, and soon entered the balance space after stimulating his spirituality through the mysterious connection.
What Aelin didn't know was.
When he began to jump into the balance space, a transparent and illusory figure was vaguely wrapped around his spiritual body!
It was a strange existence that looked like an octopus, full of an indescribable breath.
Under the twisted, constantly wriggling body, tentacles kept entwining Ailin's body.
It seemed to exist, but it also seemed not to exist.
This phantom did not seem to intend to do anything to Ailin. It simply entwined Ailin's soul and marked something.
But just when Ailin's spirit body, with the help of the mysterious association, jumped to the balance space.
The mysterious balance space seemed to feel a strange breath and shook slightly.
Then, the white mist that surrounded the long river of fate, flowing slowly like mercury.
Suddenly, it shone brightly, spreading an illusory light like a tide.
Then.
Countless mercury-like white mists, like the Milky Way falling from the sky, instantly rushed towards Ailin, who was jumping under the traction of a mysterious force.
The white mist that fell from the sky was like a giant white python, swallowing up Ailin's spirit in an instant.
Under the wash of this white mist composed of the mist of fate, Ailin's spirit seemed to be baptized inexplicably, and it was slightly shining with silver-white light.
"Hmm..."
Ailin, who was originally startled by the sudden long river of white mist, soon felt an extreme comfort that made him want to moan.
At the same time.
Under the wash of the white mist python, Ailin also vaguely saw the strange shadow wrapped around his spirit.
The moment he saw the strange shadow, Ailin's mind trembled violently.
"There is really something..."
But before Ailin could be frightened.
The strange shadow, like ice and snow under the scorching sun, was washed by the white mist python without even room for resistance, and was quickly disintegrated and melted.
Disappeared completely.
At the same time.
In a huge trench deep in the Pacific Ocean.
A terrifying existence that could not be described in words, as if it had suffered a severe blow, suddenly let out a terrifying wail.
