Chapter 370: Strange Things
It's autumn now, and the weather is not very cold, but the water temperature in this Devil Lake is extremely low.
As soon as I jumped down, I felt the chill of the skull, as if I was about to freeze all the blood in my body.
However, when I was testing the water temperature by the lake, I knew the result and felt it was tolerated.
What I am worried about now is that since this lake is poisonous, even if I have a curse, it can reduce the harm of some toxins to the body. However, if I am immersed in such a lake for a long time, the continuous invasion of toxins will not be able to withstand the power of the curse.
Of course, it is not the time to consider these things now. I don’t have much time. I concentrated and swam quickly towards the deep water area.
Not long after, I swam twenty or thirty meters away. At this moment, the water here was already very deep. At least I could see only a darkness in some depths, and I didn’t see any rocks or other things at the bottom of the lake.
As far as I know, when the sun shines in the water, the distance that human eyes can recognize is only 10 to 20 meters at most, and the water quality of this Devil Lake is very clear, so it is roughly calculated as 20 meters.
Then those water depths may be more than 20 meters.
In the nearby places with higher terrain, I could see some things in a silhouette, which made me very curious.
I quickly surfaced, took a big breath, and then pierced my head.
Soon, I reached a nearby high rock under my feet. But I saw that the place I was at this moment was like an underwater mountain, with some strange water plants growing on the rocks around me.
After seeing these aquatic plants, I suddenly felt a little strange.
The lake is poisonous and it is said that it grows nothing. Why do there are water plants under the water?
Since there are water plants, will there actually be fish? It’s just that the number is sparse and people from the Kova tribe have never discovered it?
Such a thought flashed through my mind, and I swam towards the low point of this underwater mountain.
There is nothing special in this area nearby, which disappoints me very much. Now I am beginning to suspect that the survivor of the Kova is really talking nonsense, and there is a city underwater?
This underwater looks too ordinary, too ordinary.
However, I looked at the darkness of the water again and felt that it was better to go and have a look.
Maybe what will happen below?
Generally, ordinary people without equipment can be embedded seven or eight meters underwater. Even if it is amazing, they will feel very uncomfortable.
Some diving masters may be able to reach a depth of 11 or 2 meters.
My physical fitness is far beyond ordinary people, and I guess there is no problem with more than 20 meters.
Soon, I came to this dark and cold water area. Then I followed the light of the flashlight and carefully observed the situation around me.
Before I got into the water, I brought everything I could use, flashlights, camel allanto, and guns and fetal swords.
This flashlight was brought with me when I came out of the camp and it was not very useful. Today it was very useful.
Maybe my luck is really good. I haven't been diving for long, and something that people can't imagine will appear in front of me.
I noticed that just in front of me, about 10 meters away, a human-shaped black shadow fell to the ground next to a large stone!
I widened my eyes, not knowing if I had read it wrong, so I swam over quickly.
However, the location of that place is even lower than mine now, and I'm afraid it's close to 30 meters underwater.
Even at this depth, I felt a little uncomfortable.
After I reached the human figure, I couldn't help but be very surprised, because I read it correctly. This thing was not made of stones or water plants, but really a corpse.
And what is even more unimaginable is that this corpse is only a human on the upper body, but the lower body has a fish tail.
"Mermaid, mermaid?"
Such a noun appeared in my mind.
But unlike the plot I read in myths and legends before, the thing in front of me cannot give me any beauty, on the contrary, its appearance is disgusting.
First of all, its face has extremely prominent cheekbones, a very large mouth, and a very strange proportion. What's very special is that the two sides of this guy's face have cracked a gap the size of a thumb, which seems to be his cheeks.
Secondly, its body and skin color are filled with a strange ink blue color.
In addition, this corpse has begun to rot. Although I was in silence under the water and could not smell it, I always felt a stinking feeling in my mind, which was uncomfortable.
And finally, and the most important and terrifying point, this thing seems to be more than just a monster, because it actually carries some kind of bracelet-like ornament on its wrist.
The bracelet was carved with strange patterns, which surprised me very much.
Being able to wear such things means that this monster actually has wisdom?
And at this moment, my eyebrows suddenly pounded and felt something was wrong.
I had just had this thought in my heart, and the monster's chest suddenly cracked open. A strange fish like a bug swarmed out of it. Their fish's mouth was covered with sharp fangs and attacked me in an instant.
Judging from their cold teeth, it is obvious that these guys are not good people.
I quickly kicked the sea rock under my feet and swam upwards quickly.
Unfortunately, I am underwater, where can these fish swim quickly?
They quickly surrounded me.
Even though I quickly raised my gun to resist those guys, I was still bitten so hard that I was bleeding.
More importantly, this strange fish seemed to be poisonous. After a while, I felt dizzy and my limbs began to become weak.
If someone else was here, I'm afraid he would have died now.
In a state of anxiety, I also gritted my teeth and had to pull out the fetal sword that was straddling the waist and slashed at the small fish.
I originally didn't want to use this thing. This thing is really weird and may affect my curse, but now if I don't use it, I'm afraid I'll die soon.
This fetal sword is very sharp and I am very good at it. After a fight, I finally broke up the fierce little fish.
But my troubles are probably far more than that fierce little fish.
Now I have wounds all over my body. Although the wounds are not big, a lot of blood is coming out.
A lot of blood flows in the forest, and the smell of blood is very easy to attract some creatures at the top of the food chain, such as wolves, tigers and even bag lions.
And bleeding under the water is also just as troublesome, even more dangerous than in the forest!
