Chapter 573 There Is a Sea Monster Inside
The water tower is right next to the pumping station, surrounded by a wasteland. Its style is the most traditional one many years ago: a tall cement tower that goes straight up and down, with a large storage tank placed on top. When Hao Ren was a child and liked to commit suicide, he once climbed up the iron ladder outside the water tower - now that he thought about his naughty and mischievous skills, it was incredible. Now that he had a fish that committed suicide all day long, it didn't look like it. It makes no sense, this is called karma.
When a few people arrived, there was no one around the water tower. Lily quickly circled the cement exterior wall and discovered something unusual: you can also see the kind of anti-gravity rising water here, and in some places. In an inconspicuous corner, you can even see threads of water suspended out of thin air floating everywhere. If this place wasn't desolate and remote, and if the nearby workers were not paying attention to the sinks and pipes when inspecting the water tower, they wouldn't pay attention to the corners. I'm afraid these phenomena would have called the Chinese Academy of Sciences here.
Hao Ren was only glad that he decided to come here, and it proved that there were indeed supernatural phenomena here!
"Sure enough, there is the aura of my kind..." Nangong Wuyue sensed it here carefully, and finally his eyes widened, "How could a sea monster come here?!"
Hao Ren was pleasantly surprised when he heard this - he had wanted to get to know a normal siren for a long time. The mysterious ocean city on the bottom of the deep sea is a huge mystery that he has never forgotten, and it is also the key to interpreting alien phenomena on the earth. However, Nangong Wuyue cannot help in this regard, and normal sea monsters never walk in the world. Most of the sea monsters that came ashore one or two hundred years ago have never been heard from, and he has never made much progress in this regard.
Now there is a sea monster taking the initiative to come near the southern suburbs!
"The breath is coming from the water storage tank," Nangong Wuyue's eyes glowed slightly, focusing on the top of the water tower, "Go up and have a look."
After confirming that no one would come nearby, Hao Ren and his party immediately climbed up the water tower, then searched around the circular iron frame at the top of the water tower to find the opening of the water storage tank. Nangong Sanba opened the rusty iron gate without much effort. Hao Ren was quite surprised when he saw it: "Does the skill of a demon hunter also include sliding the door and picking the lock?"
Nangong Sanba: "...Walking in the world, walking in the world."
The large sink is a thick barrel with a thick top and a thin bottom. There is a circle of stainless steel shelves along the outer wall for maintenance. Below is the sparkling water surface. The data terminal flew out to act as lighting. Hao Ren looked inside but found nothing.
"There's no one there," Nangong Sanba also poked his head and looked at it for a long time, "Did you sense it wrong in May?"
Nangong Wuyue shook her head, jumped directly from the stainless steel shelf and stood steadily on the water, walking forward while observing carefully: "No... I can feel that she is in the water... but she seems to be hidden. Woke up."
Lily thought for a while and shouted towards the water: "Hey! Is there anyone in there? We are not bad people! We have come to see you for something!"
There were loud echoes and the sound of rushing water all around, but no one responded to Lily's call.
Vivian frowned and waved her hand to summon a group of small bats. The bat group was filled with lightning: "Please come out and speak. We don't mean any harm, but if you keep hiding like this, I will electrify the water!"
As soon as Vivian finished speaking, everyone around them immediately took half a step back. Lily pointed at the stainless steel shelves under everyone's feet and the iron pipes extending into the water: "Bat, can you stop doing this every time! You're so unlucky. How many times has Lightning killed his teammates five times!"
But no matter what, the water in the sink was still silent, and there was only noise echoing from the direction of the pipe.
In the end, Hao Ren couldn't help it anymore, and he took out a large plastic bottle from his pocket and looked at the water below with a look of despair: "People inside, listen, if you don't come out, I will pour vinegar into the water! Nothing else. Enough rice vinegar!"
This is when he suddenly remembered that Nangong Wuyue's biggest weakness is jealousy. If he accidentally eats a little, he will be exhausted all day long, so he came up with this good idea. Of course, he can't really drink tons of vinegar from the portable space - after all This is the water used by residents.
But the sea monster hiding here didn't know whether it was real or fake, so he reacted immediately. There was only a splashing sound coming from the water, and a large ball of crystal clear liquid swelled up in the center of the tank, and quickly condensed into a translucent human shape, which looked like a young girl. A sound accompanied by the sound of rushing water came: "Why are you so wicked! I just found a place to sleep to provoke you?"
Hao Ren chuckled and put away the bottle of jealousy: "Do you know that you have provoked everyone in the entire city? It's a good thing that we are here to check the situation, otherwise the people who will be here in two days are either the Chinese Academy of Sciences or the demon hunters. You’re in bigger trouble!”
The human-shaped water splash was floating in the water, and it seemed that it was very wary of the people in front of it: "Then who are you? How did you find me? And I feel that there seems to be the aura of the same race nearby... Could it be you?"
"It's me," Nangong Wuyue hurriedly waved, and then a wave of light quickly appeared on his body, "Look, I am also a siren."
But I didn’t expect that Nangong Wuyue was lucky. This revelation of identity made the strange sea monster very excited. She retreated to the edge of the water tank with a splash, countless water splashing around her, and her voice was extremely angry: "I'm like this, how can you still do it?" Are you dissatisfied?! What's wrong with you and you insist on taking us back! Who will we provoke by hanging around outside for two more days?"
Hao Ren frowned as soon as he heard this, feeling that there was a lot of information in the other person's words: "What do you mean? Who wants to catch you? Other sea monsters?"
"Pretending to be confused?" The strange siren looked at Hao Ren warily (the expression should be wary, after all, her face is now transparent and difficult to recognize), "You are all chasing me here, and you are bringing so many people with you. Aren’t you here to arrest people?”
Nangong Wuyue was also confused, but the first thing he did was to clarify the misunderstanding: "You misunderstood, we don't know about this - I was a siren born on the shore. You see, I can't melt directly like you." Into the water…”
"Terrestrial sea monster?" The water girl cautiously approached Nangong Wuyue, "Indeed... the aura on her body is slightly impure. But I still can't believe you, please let me see your pure water. "
Nangong Wuyue nodded, separated a small drop of water from his body and flew towards the opponent. The strange sea monster melted the drop of water into its body, and then relaxed its vigilance: "It is indeed not a pure-blood sea monster. It's really strange. No. Come to think of it, there's a half-breed siren living here. So you're not here to catch me?"
Hao Ren spread his hands: "I said it from the beginning."
"Then why did you come to me?" The strange sea monster swam in front of everyone with the sound of rushing water, "How did you find this place?"
Hao Ren roughly explained the abnormality in the tap water nearby and how he came to investigate the situation, and then pointed to the nearby sink: "Don't you know what the place where you sleep is used for?"
"I don't know," the strange siren was surprised when he heard Hao Ren's statement, "Isn't this just a big pool? Is it possible that you will provoke someone by staying here?"
Hao Ren blinked and turned to look at Nangong Wuyue: "Are sea monsters so lacking in common sense?"
"How could the batch that came ashore back then have taken so many humans away?" Nangong Wuyue looked embarrassed, "But to be honest...it's been more than a hundred years, and it's really rare for someone to still not make any progress. I guess this You must have been following some hidden family in the deep mountains and forests."
The strange siren watched Hao Ren and the others chatting and asked curiously: "Are you talking bad about me?"
Hao Ren quickly waved his hand: "No, no - by the way, can you get out of here? The situation caused by your staying here has attracted the attention of ordinary people. It won't be long before the demon hunters smell the smell and come over."
"I'm recovering from my injuries." The strange sea monster shook his head. "Can you provide me with a lot of clean water? And it must be living water."
Hao Ren thought for a while, then turned to look at Nangong Wuyue: "Do you think the tap water at home can be used?"
He felt that the person in front of him was soaking in the water tank to recuperate, which must have consumed a lot of water, so he didn't have high hopes when he asked, but he didn't expect Nangong Wuyue to nod without thinking: "Of course it can be used, I It only takes a bathtub of water to reshape the body once, which is enough.”
It turns out that the strange sea monster in front of me doesn't need much water to recuperate. It's just that creatures like sea monsters naturally like water and just look for places with plenty of water.
She really found a good place.
