Who says a sickly daughter can’t break through the weirdness?

Shen Qiyin's expression changed as if she suddenly realized something.

I clearly haven't activated my third eye, so why can I still see the Kuroshio?

No, is the darkness that engulfed the entire Shuiyuan Bay villa area really the Kuroshio?

"Tang Miao, look down there..." Shen Qiyin pointed at the wriggling darkness below and murmured softly, "Can you see those things?"

"I can see it!" Tang Miao replied immediately, and then quickly followed up with, "Qiyin, that looks like sea water!"

"seawater?"

"Right! This is so strange. The tide isn't high, so why is the seawater flooding here? Um, that's not right. The seawater isn't coming up from the beach. It seems to be coming directly from under the community!"

After getting Tang Miao's affirmation, Shen Qinyin quickly concentrated her mind and stared at the place where her villa was located.

Then, she saw a scene that shocked her greatly——

The metal door representing the lurker did not disappear...

The sea water flowed slowly with the door as the center, and gradually formed a huge whirlpool.

Shen Qiyin couldn't help but open her mouth slightly when she saw this scene, and then she suddenly remembered something:

When the Lurker dies, no gold coins are dropped.

Shen Qiyin's notebook has a strong sensitivity to the "Core of Fear". Even if she cannot get it, as long as that thing is within the range of the perception network, the notebook can detect the existence of the Core of Fear.

The problem is, the laptop didn’t have this feeling just now!

Because she was being chased by the Black Tide, Shen Qinyin ignored this problem until now.

So, in other words...

The "lurker" may not be dead?

Or perhaps the thing that died was not "it"?

As he pondered this, the sea suddenly began to boil violently! Like a mountain torrent, the water surged high into the air, forming a massive column of water that reached over a thousand meters in height!

The sea water at the top of the water column continued to fall like a waterfall, as if covering the surface of some object!

And that object, as the seawater peeled off, gradually revealed its entire body——

That's a door...

A door that reaches the sky and reaches up to the heavens!

The top of the door frame pierced the clouds, and the bottom was directly inserted into the seabed. The edge was covered with jagged protrusions, and each tooth was slowly wriggling.

The originally bluish-gray metal texture gradually revealed a bloody luster, and the surface of the door panel was covered with irregular bloody and flesh holes, each of which was the size of a container, and black sticky substances continued to drip down.

The moment the door appeared, Shen Qinyin felt the pressure suddenly reduced, and her third eye was activated. She saw that the black tide that enveloped them had disappeared completely!

No, they didn’t disappear, but were all sucked into the clone!

She turned her gaze to the clone of the Black Tide's main body. The black gelatinous substance that piled up like a giant mountain was actually retreating.

It seemed to feel "fear" and wanted to stay away from this door!

"The door, the door is moving..." Tang Miao stretched out his hand tremblingly, pointing at the huge door with a trembling finger. "Qiyin, is that door the one in the basement?"

"Yes..." Shen Qiyin also couldn't help swallowing her saliva, "I'm afraid this is the true appearance of the 'lurker'!"

"boom--"

As the thousand-meter-high door axis roared like a 10,000-ton cargo ship setting sail, the tightly closed giant door began to slowly open.

From within the door came a sound resembling the song of an ancient whale, and the entire sea suddenly began to boil again.

The first thing that emerged was a tentacle as thick as a mountain range.

The surface of this tentacle is covered with countless suction cups, which open and close regularly, like a pair of ferocious eyes.

Then, the second one, the third one...

As the fifth black tentacle stretched out from the door, the tentacles that stretched out in front suddenly entangled with it, and the blood and flesh were constantly mixed, making a sticky sound.

But in the blink of an eye, a giant palm spanning thousands of meters, enough to cover the sky and the sun, was fully formed!

Its five fingers are like pillars supporting the sky, and each one is comparable to a mountain. Under this giant palm, Hei Chao's body, which is comparable to a mountain, seems particularly small.

The giant palm paused briefly above the white clouds, as if chasing the breath of the Black Tide clone and slowly covering it.

The next second—

"boom!!"

The five fingers that completely covered the Black Tide clone instantly closed together! A loud bang like thunder suddenly pierced the sky!

The moment the giant palm closed, the Black Tide clone exploded into a black mud that was invisible to the naked eye! The mud didn't even have time to splash down before it evaporated like water vapor!

After the last mass of black mud turned into water vapor and dissipated, the giant palm slowly loosened and turned into five tentacles again.

These tentacles, as thick as mountains, paused in the air for a moment, then slowly retreated back into the door.

For it, killing the Black Tide clone is as easy as crushing an ant.

What's more, Kuroshio's clone was indeed "crushed to death".

The huge door began to shrink rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the door frame and door panels gradually lost their fleshy texture and turned back into cold metal.

The seawater that originally covered half of the city also rushed towards the center of the earth at this moment.

When the door shrank to its normal size, the cold metal door seemed to suddenly calcify and dissipate bit by bit.

Yunlan City seemed to have returned to calm at this moment. Shen Qinyin and Tang Miao stared blankly at the place where the metal door disappeared. The previous scene played repeatedly in their minds like a movie rewinding.

Kuroshio's clone...

Just disappeared like that?

Including the black tide that swept across Yunlan City and several surrounding areas, it all disappeared.

As if none of this had ever happened...

Chapter 98 “His” Call

Half an hour later, on the balcony of a private house.

Tang Miao was sitting in the corner with her knees hugged, her back against the cold wall, her body trembling uncontrollably.

Even though half an hour had passed since the black tide disappeared and the lurkers retreated, she still hadn't recovered from her previous shock.

Compared to the relief of being alive, the shock and fear brought by seeing the huge door and the true appearance of the thing behind the door made Tang Miao even feel that maybe being alive was not a good thing after all.

Because the gap is too big...

A fog that enveloped the entire world, a level 3 monster capable of leveling a city, a black tide that swallowed up an entire province...

And there was also the terrifying giant hand that just "crushed" the source of the black tide.

What on earth are we fighting against?

Tang Miao spread out his hands and looked at his palms tremblingly.

From the first sprouts of life underwater, to the giant beasts of the Stone Age, to the first human to walk upright...

We once arrogantly measured the land beneath our feet.

When the steel and concrete spires pierce the clouds, we think we have conquered the forest.

When the first airplane turned its propeller, we thought we had conquered the sky.

When sparks flew from the particle collider, we believed we had touched the authority of creation and began to reveal the truth about all things in the universe.

Human beings claim to be the first of all living things and the masters of all things, as if they were born to explore the entire universe.

So, mankind shouted, "Our journey is to the stars and the sea."

But when the world finally revealed the tip of the iceberg to them, humans finally realized:

The so-called most intelligent creatures are nothing more than mayflies stranded on the beach of cognition, and they do not even truly understand the ocean where they were born.

At this moment, Tang Miao finally truly understood those scientists who lost their minds and went crazy after facing the entity, and Dr. Zhou whose faith collapsed after the end of the world.

This feeling is like a goldfish kept in a glass tank, thinking that it has swum all over the world through the curved fish tank.

Until one day the fish tank broke and salty sea water poured in, it was shocked to realize that it had never even seen a real surge.

Those proud cruising skills are nothing but a dying struggle in the undercurrent stirred up by the deep-sea monsters.

Shen Qinyin's fingers gently stroked the sleeping Xiaoxiang. Although this "girl" had been partially eroded by the black tide just now, it was a blessing in disguise. The door appeared in time and the black tide did not endanger her core.

Now all I have to do is wait for her to finish self-maintenance, and then use the electric shock inherited from the electric energy crystal to charge her.

"So, that's the end?"

"We managed to survive? The black tide that spread to Yunlan City just disappeared like that?"

Tang Miao's voice trembled slightly, as if he had not yet recovered from what had just happened.

"Well," Shen Qiyin noticed that Tang Miao looked very unhappy, and said softly, "Are you okay? Are you hurt?"

"Injured... not really."

Tang Miao lowered her head, her eyes becoming empty and lifeless, a trembling fear constantly flowing between her pupils: "Qiyin, I'm very scared. What kind of enemy are we facing...

The Black Tide alone is terrifying enough. Entire provinces have been overrun. One clone can devour several large cities, not to mention the guy behind the door...

Is there really any chance that we humans will win? Will human civilization become extinct in our generation?

"I don't know." Shen Qiyin shook her head calmly, "I'm sorry, I can't give you an answer on this matter, but there is always a way.

When the first ape-man in history looked at the stars, it was decided that we would eventually have a place in the universe.

Thinking too much will lead to depression, and depression will lead to nihilism. Tang Miao, what we need now is to become stronger, not to think about those trivial things.

Whether it's an earthquake, a rainstorm, a tsunami, or a meteorite impact, humans always find a way to survive.

Look, even in this apocalyptic world, aren't we still alive?"

Shen Qiyin stretched out her fingers, gently brushed the hair on both sides of her cheeks, and then gently pinched her face:

"Don't underestimate the possibilities of humanity, little girl."

Tang Miao opened her mouth, and after a long silence, she raised a bitter smile: "Only you can always be so calm and optimistic. I really should learn from you."

"uh-huh?"

"You're right. Now is not the time to be depressed. There is still a lot of work to be done."

Tang Miao regained his spirits and gave Shen Qiyin a big smile: "Thank you Qiyin, I feel much better now."

"That's good."

Seeing that the other party had cheered up again, Shen Qiyin couldn't help but feel a little relieved.

She always believed that the most terrifying thing was not that the enemy was too powerful, but that she gave up on herself.

If even humans themselves give up the fight, then everything will be over.

"By the way, how long will it take for Xiaoxiang to be repaired?"

Tang Miao cast her gaze on Xiaoxiang, who had her eyes tightly closed. This heavy tactical humanoid beauty usually gave her a strong sense of a mechanical maid, but the way she lay now actually looked like Sleeping Beauty in a fairy tale.

"About half an hour." Shen Qiyin shrugged. "I'm not sure, but thanks to the battle between the Black Tide and the Giant Gate, no entities or strange beasts will approach this place in the short term. We can rest for a while."

"Well, Qiyin, how about telling me about your past?"

"...My, past?"

"Well, I just remembered now that I rarely hear you talk about your past, like what you wanted to do as a child, what your dreams were, etc..."

At this point, Tang Miao paused as if suddenly realizing something, then scratched his head apologetically, "Ah, sorry, I'd better not tell you. It will definitely remind you of a lot of unhappy things, right?"

Shen Qinyin knew that she was worried about her legs, but it was nothing to be disappointed about.

It's my past...

I've only been in this world for a few months, but everything that happened before I crossed over seems like a lifetime ago.

"My past..."

Shen Qinyin was about to speak when she suddenly felt her legs go cold.

She lowered her head and saw that her legs were soaked in the cold sea water.
