Witch containment diary

In this miserable spring, Zhang Su dived to a depth of 1,000 meters in the North Pacific Ocean.

Water pressure rises to 100 times atmospheric pressure. The pressure on every inch of his body at this time was terrifying, like dozens of elephants stacked on a stamp.

Sensory deprivation experiments immerse people in deep water, and Zhang Su's situation is similar. His hearing is hollow, his eyes are dark, and the armor is almost integrated with him, making it impossible to distinguish each other.

There is no feeling, even thinking is paralyzed.

"Are you scared? In the deep sea? There is nothingness in front of you, and there is still unknown?" Lidya did not speak to scare him, but just typed the message on Zhang Su's helmet panel.

Zhang Su remained silent and continued to dive.

There are still so many deep seas in this world that have not yet been clarified. The English name of the game "Uncharted" is "uncharted", which means "not yet marked on the map."

However, there were so many people coming and going in the sea area in front of them. Hongyan, Fishing Taro, the envoy of the Heavenly Palace in the Spirit Realm, and Princess Otohime also lived below. These people had all gone deep into the Dragon Palace. Why couldn't Zhang Su go? He is full of courage now.

In addition, Princess Otohime is a branch of the Dragon Witch, and their family may also store the conservation potion that allows dragon eggs to hatch, which is crucial to his and Kati's descendants. Zhang Su doesn't need extra driving force to do things, but these thoughts can sharpen his mind and keep him focused in the deep sea.

"I seem to have seen huge remains." Zhang Su continued to dive, "That area, if converted to the ground, is equivalent to the area of ​​an entire small town. I'm going to turn on the long-distance lights."

"Be careful, just like in a cave. Turning on the light will scare away a swarm of bats. You are in the deep sea now..." Before Lidya could finish typing, Zhang Su fully turned on the lighting function of the armor.

It was like a flash bomb being turned on in the deep sea. Countless fish around him were shocked. They swam violently and trembled in all directions. For thousands of years, no one has ever sounded such thunder in the abyss. The bright light is too frightening for their fragile light-sensitive organs, forcing them to quickly turn around and flee to avoid blinding themselves. Those who could endure it quickly swam to Zhang Su's side and gently pecked the armor with their breaths.

Zhang Su completely ignored these shoals of strange deep-sea fish with huge mouths, fangs, and strange shapes. His body floated quietly, his gaze penetrated the midnight-like deep sea, and completely fell on the shocking landscape below.

"I have never seen such a big 'dragon'." Lydia admitted.

What he saw was a giant dragon skull more than 200 meters long. Its cavity was like a pagoda of white bones that collapsed to the ground. The bone spurs of the dragon's horns stretched upwards. At the bottom was a skull like a crown of thorns, with a huge chin. Opened, rows of corroded bones and teeth stretched out at strange angles, as if they were making a silent howl.

It had been dead for many years, leaving empty black eye sockets staring coldly at Zhang Su.

"Mocentipede..." Zhang Su continued to swim, walking along the complete spine of the dragon bone, illuminating this huge dragon corpse that occupies a strangely vast area.

There are also landforms such as mountains, deep valleys and plains similar to land on the seabed. At this moment, it is lying in a structure similar to an undersea basin.

Other parts of the dragon corpse were piled up in the nearby seafloor mud and sediment. Zhang Su identified strange remains similar to hip bones, claw bones and similar joints. He also felt a faint demonic aura coiling around the dragon's corpse.

"The bottom of the sea is alive," Lydia said.

Zhang Su saw a group of fish carefully swimming out from under its ribs, and began to explore the unknown luminous object above its head. Zhang Su's presence was like the sun under the sea, suddenly waking up millions of residents in an instant.

Hundreds of glowing membrane balls float out from the corals and seaweeds gathered under the dragon's ribs. They are some kind of deep jellyfish, dragging ethereal-looking tentacles, as if a starry color flows from them. The slender thread eels immediately attack and try to hunt them. Spotted flash snapper follows closely behind.

A large group of thin lantern fish passed in front of Zhang Su, like a group of colorful fireflies moving like meteors, further illuminating the dragon corpse, and they dived into a deeper abyss in horror.

Only then did Zhang Su realize that the depth he reached was far from the "bottom of the sea", and that there was a shuddering vastness in the deeper places. No wonder people imagine ancient beings building major cities under the deep sea, and imaginary lakes inhabited by monsters similar to aboleths. These are wild areas that humans rarely set foot on, and those who venture into them will only die violently.

"Underneath its body seems to be the Dragon Palace City." Zhang Su noticed that the dragon's corpse was half-embracing, and there was probably a deeper cavity hidden underneath. Light shone through the partially damaged ground, but no seawater poured in. , as if there is a barrier separating the inside and outside.

"It's time to go down." Lidya agreed with Zhang Su's judgment. "There is a bigger treasure under this corpse, and it exactly matches the coordinates."

"Miss Lianwu, I am about to enter Dragon Palace City now." Zhang Su uploaded the message, but the reply was not timely. He knew that Lianwu might not always be by the signal transceiver. Going to the book world.

He turned off the lights and continued deep diving. At this time, the descending depth had reached 1,200 meters. Lydia closely monitored the water pressure endured by the armor. Its performance was very powerful, but the designer had not conducted deep-sea testing. Zhang Su's breathing method requires fresh air from the vast world, not the oxygen tank in the armor.

"I heard the sound of banquets and music, is it an illusion?" Zhang Su sank down.

"The audio receiving device indeed scanned unusual sound waves." Lidya played the music again, confirming Zhang Su's thoughts.

The people below are having a banquet... Ryugu Castle sounds like a wealthy and peaceful place. Princess Otohime is probably banqueting the ministers and chatting with the soldiers and generals. Zhang Su didn't know if it was appropriate to disturb her now. He thought about what would be a good gift for Princess Otohime then.

"So, we landed." Zhang Su descended to the submarine plain and began to walk underwater.

The deep-sea shellfish lurking under the sea sand suddenly began to stir. The flat ambusher, who was mostly buried in the sand, also bumped his head against Zhang Su's armor boots. He moved forward without any distractions, and even tried to jump underwater. Facts have proved that the underwater One leap was much faster than walking, and his body instantly rushed forward, approaching a crack similar to the entrance to the underground dragon palace.

Zhang Su floated around the luminous barrier. He tried to flap and call to attract the attention of the residents of the Dragon Palace.

"Is there anyone down there?" Zhang Su shouted.

He heard the end of the melodious music inside. It was a kind of exquisite flute music. The tone was very different from the land music that Zhang Su was familiar with. Its sound was deeper and deeper, and sometimes it was so high that it hurt the ears. , seems to be more suitable for the hearing of life in the water.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Su heard a burst of rapid running below, and he heard a timid and nervous female voice.

"W-who are you?" she asked.

"I'm here to visit the Dragon Palace, and I don't mean any harm." Zhang Su said, but he couldn't see the other person's face clearly.

"You will scare the centipede, hush, hush!" she said.

"This voice is so nice. I believe you must be Princess Otohime." Zhang Su felt that her voice was particularly pleasant and crisp.

"...Thank you, outsider. But you must not wake up the Centipede." Princess Otohime reminded.

She observed the outsider curiously. He was wearing a very strange piece of armor and could actually go deep into the water. He did not need to ride on a sea dragon or a giant turtle, and he could just go to the bottom of the water freely. It was also very incredible to her. She couldn't help but start to speculate about Zhang Su's identity. Why did he arrive at Dragon Palace City at this moment?

"I heard that the Mo Centipede is a type of deep-sea dragon clan and is the guardian of the Deep-sea Dragon Palace City." Zhang Su said.

"That was all in the past. Ryugu City has been poisoned by evil forces for a long time. Even the Centipede has been killed and the body has been stolen by monsters." Princess Otohime sighed softly.

demon? Zhang Su turned around and saw a shocking scene.

The body of the Centipede was trembling slightly. From the tail to the head, dim magic light lit up along with the bones section by section, as if it was coming back to life. Its slight movement instantly began to stir up the mud on the ground. Zhang Su could feel waves of deep sea pulses attacking him. Come.

"I'll open the door a little. Come in quickly! Don't get hurt by the centipede!" Princess Otohime immediately opened the barrier and the sea water poured into the Dragon Palace.

"Keep it closed first." Zhang Su thought that the Centipede suddenly revived and might prey on all sides, possibly injuring Lianwu who was waiting on the sea.

He immediately kicked the sea water, used the reaction force and the kinetic energy of the armor to rush towards the Centipede, and pulled out the Guanshi Pagoda from the weapon slot on his back.

"You! You are too reckless!" Princess Otohime closed the barrier with force and watched Zhang Su leave with extreme fear.

How dare he face such a behemoth as the Centipede? Finally, as the first guest of Dragon Palace in many years, he died at the hands of Mo Centipede? Princess Otohime's head hit the barrier hard, causing ripples. Her eyes widened, and she watched with sadness and despair as Zhang Su died alone.

The Centipede had awakened at this time. Its bizarrely huge body was supported by its four claws. The vicious evil spirit outlined its huge skeleton in the black water. Under the guidance of an invisible force, a large number of bones fell from the sand. It floated up automatically, returned and was pieced together on the skeleton as it was during life, restoring this giant marine beast to its full glory.

Zhang Su looked around. The Centipede was so big that it had completely surrounded Zhang Su. Its skull turned towards Zhang Su, and burning green embers lit up from the depths of its eye sockets, as if it was peering into Zhang Su's soul.

He immediately rushed to rub the centipede's head.

Seeing Zhang Su's approach, it quickly gathered strength. Countless scarlet fragments and ribbon-like tissues regenerated from the bones, weaving dense biological fibers on the bones, and the twisted blood vessels took on terrifying shapes.

Its skin was reborn in a gurgling bubble of blood, dark gray and pitted like volcanic rock. The huge dorsal fin was re-coated from the top of the spine, like an infinitely extending ridge. These armor plates quickly swung left and right, like fins that powered a ship, quickly restoring propulsion and maneuverability to the body.

After recovering a little, it flapped its long tail, quickly distanced itself, and swam freely in the sea.

This is too fast! Zhang Su was shocked. Mobility in underwater combat is particularly important, but the Centipede is obviously possessed by a powerful demon and can actually recover skin and flesh from its skeleton. It is impossible for sea dragons, which are naturally dominant in the sea, to be at a disadvantage in the water. .
