Chapter 1380 697: Doomed by the Dam! (2)
How did I accidentally research a small You Sui's clever trick again?
Boom!
The gunfire intensified, like a torrential rain.
The Seven Cities Defense hadn't even had a chance to kill their way over before the Venom Fleet was already engulfed in unprecedented internal chaos.
"Fire, fire, fire now!"
Second officer Shamska sprinted wildly, leaping across to a ship dozens of meters away, then turned back to the chaotic Pine Wood, feeling drenched in cold sweat.
Without even minding the crew members still escaping on the deck, he grabbed the machine gun fixed on the bow, turned back, and fired at those densely swarming metal creatures.
"Die for me, die for me, all of you just die!!!"
Under the reckless machine gun fire, a large number of metal creatures fell apart, 'strewn across the ground,' and Shamska laughed hysterically, repeatedly pulling the trigger until the ammo belt was exhausted, only then realizing... they hadn't even chased after him.
Those hunched and eerie figures stopped at the ship's edge.
Watching them across such a short distance.
Staring unblinkingly.
In the 'crowd,' Shamska even saw his subordinates he left behind on the ship!
Those familiar faces, with stiff smiles, were waving and calling to him.
"Normal, everything is normal... we, normal... normal..."
The bone-chilling cold completely swallowed Shamska.
He staggered back a step, nearly falling to the ground, urging others to fire again and again, nearly screaming out loud.
But when he turned his head, he froze, as if plunged into an ice cellar.
Almost forgot to breathe...
Amidst the dead silence, right behind him, the pirates on the escort ships were also watching him, their hollow expressions suddenly floating with smiles.
Right then, from the intercom on Shamska's chest, a response from the cabin finally emerged: "Normal, everything is normal, we are normal... we... join... join join... join us join us join us..."
In what seemed like a wailing, hoarse voice mixed with sharp laughter and cries, finally left only noise, without any more response.
Merely one after another, zombie-like figures, stiffly moved their steps, stumbling forward.
Completely drowning Shamska's face of despair.
There was no more sound.
In the silence, only laughter akin to happiness, murmurs and whispers within an Illusion Dream, endlessly repeated.
"Join us... we, normal... normal, normal... join... we, happiness, happiness, happiness, happiness, happiness..."
The same radio wave echoed within the fleet, resonating on every radio frequency, freezing Renut's expression on his face.
Gradually darkening, gradually hideous.
Until the same murmurs and laughter sounded beside Renut.
Right before him, a terrified face suddenly started twitching, gradually stiffening, gradually dulling, and gradually... losing expression, leaving behind an eerie numbness and emptiness.
Twitching, trembling,
Beneath the hardened and peeling flesh, emerged metallic bones, the structure of the eyeballs crumbled, and within the flesh, camera-like structures gradually emerged, growing.
Before Renut's eyes, with inevitable mutation spreading rapidly, a living person transformed into a Puppet and monster within mere seconds.
At this moment, as the last gleam vanished from its eyes, that head abruptly twisted to look at him.
Smiling with happiness.
"Join us... join... happ..."
Boom!
Amidst the huge sound, Renut coldly swung a punch, smashing that ghostly thing, instantly, countless fragments fell from the flesh, the metalized bones and bizarrely structured viscera and nerves mutated into cables.
No one dared to speak anymore.
The radio had no more calls for help or cries anymore.
At the moment when countless eerie whispers rose, the entire fleet, all equipment, had already crashed, lost their response.
The channels were filled with joyful whispers, and from the dark screens, one bizarre face after another emerged from the flickering, line after line of repeating characters surged like a waterfall, endlessly expanding.
Eventually, even the broadcasts and speakers were completely out of control.
Those chaotic whispers rose layer upon layer, until finally, countless timely voices converged, seemingly transforming into a hysterical hymn, growing more and more resounding!
They moaned, they praised, they whispered, they cheered.
As if welcoming Heaven.
Mutation spread, like a plague, throwing the entire fleet into disarray.
Even if the mutated crew posed little threat, they could be resolved with a few shots; they didn't even know how to use guns!
But at this critical point, how many could remain calm? The distant Seven Cities Defense was closing in step by step, while near was that eerie freighter, devouring at will, the whole fleet in chaos, like the apocalypse had arrived.
When the communication systems all lost control, the command chain completely broke, and the entire fleet had turned into a scattered sandpile.
"Help, help... it can infect, I, I..."
A cry of terror echoed from the deck of a ship in the distance. A bitten crew member frantically dashed about, though without symptoms, still panicking, stumbling, falling into the sea, immediately devoured by a frenzied Sacrificial Priestess utterly out of control... The once feared disordered object of Venom's opponents was now being eaten like seaweed by a monstrous freight ship, while in turn, becoming their rival...
