Quick Wear: When the Villain Holds the Strategy Script

Chapter 58 Taming the Empire's Mad Dog 21

Shen Yuzhi took another step closer, and even the slightest breath could cause the material on the pillar to fall off.

The faint inscription on it appeared——

There have been four generations of humans on Earth:

The first human generation was a generation of giants, and they perished from starvation.

The second generation of humans was destroyed in a huge fire.

The third generation of humans were apes, and they perished by slaughtering each other.

Later, the fourth generation of humans appeared. They were the "sun and water" humans. Human civilization at this stage was destroyed by a devastating flood with huge waves.

Is this a record from ancient times?!

The breath of history that filled his face made Shen Yuzhi a little stunned. He was careful not to touch these seemingly fragile pillars, and carefully traced the words on them with his eyes.

Of course, he didn't forget to keep an eye on the witch out of the corner of his eye.

These characters are not the common language of the An'er Empire, but a very ancient language. Fortunately, Shen Yuzhi is knowledgeable and well-educated.

In addition, there are many mysterious symbols and totems, and due to the corrosion of the pillars, Shen Yuzhi can only understand them based on the guesswork of the characters.

The witch was equally shocked by this, and even burst out with energy that did not belong to her age, standing around the strange pillar in amazement.

Shen Yuzhi did not stay by the pillar for too long, but looked to the other side.

If we rush out of the air pocket from another direction, will we return to the ocean?

Thinking of this, he walked forward.

There are many shipwrecks covered by marine life in this air pocket. Years of corrosion have made the hulls appear strange and desolate, which seems to echo the ancient words on the pillars.

"Destruction" is the core of that passage.

After walking for several hundred meters, Shen Yuzhi suddenly felt a huge suction force trying to swallow him up. The sea water and whirlpools surged, making dark sounds, accompanied by the murmur of ancient words that struck the heart -

"The secret of immortality and the mermaid's hide-and-seek are buried here"

"Come back, come back, your mother tribe will warmly welcome you, give you a beautiful appearance, and grant you eternal glory."

"Thorns grow in the throats of the noble ones, and the greedy ones are drowned by the sea with swords in hand."

"Bathed in glory, Atlantis is awakening..."

The last sentence sounded like a bell striking directly into Shen Yuzhi's heart.

Atlantis!

Just before he was about to touch the non-existent "wall", Shen Yuzhi stopped in time and his eyes regained clarity.

There is indeed a part of the mermaid in his body, although it is only a little, but it is still deadly. After all, no one knows what is behind this wall.

A lost ancient underwater city?

The mysterious mermaid clan?

Shen Yuzhi didn't mind speculating the worst.

He quickly retreated, leaving the "wall" formed by sea water air pockets.

If Shen Yuzhi had not gone through the tiring courtship period with Chi Jibai, he might have been drawn into an unknown vortex.

"The prophecy has come true! The prophecy has come true! The empire will really fall! You are a member of Atlantis!"

The witch started to mutter something mysteriously again. The next second, a sharp blade appeared on the side of Shen Yuzhi's arm and he quickly slashed towards the witch, but was barely avoided.

But the hood that had been covering the witch's head was lifted, revealing her hideous and ugly side.

Under the hat, there were only sparse gray hair on both sides of the head. The skin and flesh on the back of the witch's head were piled up layer by layer, like an ugly toad, with densely packed protruding small dots on it.

The most important thing is that the witch's ears do not look like normal humans, but ear fins!

She is also a mermaid!

However, her appearance was completely different from Shen Yuzhi's. She was not the beautiful and noble mermaid in the legend, but more like a sea ghost emerging from the bottom of the sea!

"Damn it, when did you find out?"

The mermaid showed its sharp fangs and threw away its layers of clothes, revealing its entire appearance.

She was not hunched over. Instead, her upper body was just skin and bones, and she was completely naked. One could even clearly see the bones beneath the gray skin.

In order not to appear too tall, she had to shrink her upper body and disguise herself as a hunchbacked old woman.

Her lower body also had a fish tail similar to Shen Yuzhi's, but it was gray.

The mermaid stood up, and its upper body alone was two meters long, taller than Shen Yuzhi.

“It’s full of loopholes and extremely stupid.”

Shen Yuzhi threw down these eight rude words and rushed forward again, with the edge of his blade cutting through the sky.

There was no need to point out the poor acting skills of the mermaid. He could smell the suffocating fishy smell just through the one-way glass of the interrogation room.

Not only that, the prophecies she deliberately said, the awkward posture she used to slow down in the sea water, and the speed she used when reading ancient texts, she didn't look like an old lady who only knew how to tell fortunes...

Either way, it's quite suspicious.

Of course Shen Yuzhi would not believe her. The mermaid deliberately lured him here, wanting him to hear the bewitching voice and destroy the pillar!

The merman deliberately said things like the pillar of heaven would collapse in order to confuse Shen Yuzhi and gain his trust.

But unfortunately, it failed from the very beginning.

The mermaid's weapon was the blade on her arm. When the long gray shadow saw Shen Yuzhi coming to kill her again, a flying blade grew out of thin air on her arm that was as dry as bones, and she fought with Shen Yuzhi.

But once they started fighting, the merman found that he was no match for Shen Yuzhi.

"How could it be! You are obviously not of pure blood! You damn half-blood, half-blood!"

The mermaid cursed, not knowing why Shen Yuzhi was so strong. She began to regret bringing Shen Yuzhi to this place. She had thought that she could kill him if he was exposed, but in the end she was unable to defeat him!

She ran quickly in the direction she came from, hoping to regain her fastest speed in the sea water and kill Shen Yuzhi. However, Shen Yuzhi's speed was extremely fast. She heard a whistling sound behind her ears, and the mermaid didn't have time to make a sound before the ugly head fell off her neck.

The mermaid disguised herself as a witch who could predict the future, but she could not predict that she would die at the hands of Shen Yuzhi.

In fact, Shen Yuzhi noticed another clue about the strangeness of the vortex.

There are sunken ships and even scattered cargoes in this air cavity, but there are no human skeletons, not even a single one.

Where did you go?

Were they swept to other places by the whirlpool in the sea, or were all the people on the boat swallowed by the non-existent "wall"?

Shen Yuzhi picked up the mermaid's body, turned around and walked towards the whirlpool step by step. When he felt the suction suddenly coming, he threw the mermaid's body in his hand into it.

Disappeared.

There is an unknown space between the air cavity and the sea on the other side. Shen Yuzhi temporarily calls that space "Atlantis".

After waiting for a while and seeing no movement, Shen Yuzhi left in the direction he came from.

He has a good memory for directions and can return along the same route even without the "witch" to lead the way.

Puff——

Shen Yuzhi poked his head out of the sea, his wet long hair hanging messily on his shoulders, his light golden eyes looking thoughtful.

Back in the speedboat, the gorgeous fish tail turned into human legs again. Shen Yuzhi put on his uniform jacket and drove towards the prison.
