Lin Shan flew high into the sky, the sound of the wind whistling past his ears, and the scenery below his feet quickly shrank.
Two minutes later, he arrived above the south bank of the Terminal Reservoir.
Looking down from the sky, you can see the entire scene below.
A long cordon has been set up on the south bank of the reservoir. The yellow warning tape swayed slightly in the wind, appearing particularly eye-catching.
Outside the cordon, several black special service vehicles were parked on the side, with the police lights on the roofs flashing silently.
What is even more eye-catching are the armed police officers wearing bulletproof vests and holding rifles. They patrol the area around the reservoir continuously with serious expressions, their eyes scanning the surroundings like hawks.
A large area around it has been cleared, and not even a bird's song can be heard in the reservoir at this moment.
There was a sense of oppression in the air.
In this atmosphere, even the wind seemed to become heavy.
Lin Shan's eyes swept across the water and finally stopped on an abandoned dock.
The pier had been abandoned for many years. The wooden floor had rotted away, and several broken pillars were tilted in the water, as if it would collapse at any time.
In a corner of the pier, there were three strange flags. The flags were embroidered with complex runes, exuding a faint spiritual charm, like some kind of suppressive magic weapon, faintly comparable to the spiritual fluctuations of Sequence 8.
Next to the pier, there is a temporary plastic-steel house. The solar panels on the roof reflect dazzling light under the sun.
At the door of the room, two awakened people were playing cards out of boredom, with cigarettes dangling from their mouths. Amid the smoke, they looked lazy and casual.
Their strength was only at the level of Sequence 9, and they were obviously only sent to perform some simple guarding tasks.
One of them yawned and threw out a card, while the other frowned, as if thinking about what to do next.
Lin Shan's gaze did not stay on them for too long, his attention was drawn to the water below the pier.
The water surface seemed calm, but Lin Shan could feel a strong and strange aura coming from deep under the water.
Wisps of black gas rose from the water.
"This thing... might be stronger than I thought."
"By the way, how did the strange phenomena in this world come into being?"
After hesitating for less than a second, Lin Shan dived into the water.
Gulp...Gulp...Bubbles popped out of his mouth and nose, rising rapidly.
The underwater world was completely different from the silence on the water surface. The water flow around him seemed to carry some strange weight, slowly pushing his body down.
Lin Shan continued to swim downwards, and the weight gradually increased, reaching a level that was enough to drown a Sequence 9.
Faced with this situation, the skilled and courageous Lin Shan just frowned slightly and continued to dive.
As he continued to dive, the color of the water became darker and darker. The originally clear water gradually became turbid, and finally turned almost inky black, as if he was swimming towards an endless abyss.
On the shore, the two awakened ones who were playing cards suddenly stopped what they were doing and looked at the water in surprise.
From some unknown time on, the water surface was no longer calm, but began to fluctuate violently, as if something huge was stirring underwater.
"What's that sound?" One of them stood up and the cards in his hand fell to the ground.
"What's going on with this water?" Another person also stood up, his face turning pale.
The water surface was becoming more and more violent, and even ripples began to appear, as if something was about to break out of the water.
The two looked at each other, their eyes full of fear.
"The situation has changed, hurry up, contact SHIELD!"
One of them hurriedly took out his communicator and pressed the emergency call button with trembling fingers.
At this time, Lin Shan had already traveled nearly two hundred meters in the deep water.
The water around became extremely cold, even with a bit of biting chill.
Suddenly, Lin Shan's body stiffened suddenly, and a strong sense of crisis came from all directions.
He quickly looked around and saw long, thin hair floating out of the darkness and slowly wrapping around him.
The hair was as black as ink and emitted a disgusting stench, as if it had fallen off a dead body.
Lin Shan quickly took out a dagger made of wild boar tusks from his pocket. The blade of the dagger flashed coldly in the dim water.
He swung the dagger and easily cut through the hair.
However, the severed hair did not disappear. Instead, it seemed to be enraged and quickly split into countless thin wire-worm-like substances, which continued to entangle him.
“Crackle!”
A burst of lightning suddenly erupted around Lin Shan. Blue arcs of electricity jumped in the water, instantly burning the approaching hair and wire-worm-like substances.
The lifeless hair turned to ashes in the water. Lin Shan did not stop and continued to swim downstream.
As he got closer to the bottom of the lake, the water flow around him became more and more strange.
The darkness in the water seemed to have substance and began to slowly wriggle, as if something huge was awakening in the darkness.
Lin Shan's heartbeat quickened. He could feel an unprecedented sense of oppression coming from all directions, as if the entire bottom of the lake was watching him.
Finally, his feet touched the mud at the bottom of the lake.
There was a sticky feeling coming from the mud.
Lin Shan's eyes scanned and searched in the darkness, and suddenly, his pupils contracted sharply.
In the center of the lake bottom stands a huge stone monument.
The stone tablet was engraved with ancient runes, which emitted a faint blue light, as if suppressing something.
However, what made Lin Shan feel dizzy was that there were countless black chains wrapped around the bottom of the stone tablet.
Those chains seemed to extend from deep underground. Each chain was engraved with strange symbols. The other end of the chain was connected to a huge black coffin.
The surface of the coffin was covered with complex lines, in which black liquid was flowing slowly.
Countless long hairs are floating around the coffin, drifting slowly in the water, as if guarding the coffin.
What is even more horrifying is that black gas continuously seeps out from the cracks in the coffin. The gas condenses into distorted human faces in the water, emitting silent roars.
Lin Shan had a solemn expression. When he saw the coffin, he understood that this was not a vision that he could deal with right now.
The guy lying in the coffin is at least Sequence 7, or even higher.
There are all kinds of strange phenomena on Ziwei Star. Even remote controls can become spirits, so the appearance of rice dumplings is not surprising.
There is obviously a seal on this coffin. I don’t know which powerful person set it. The things inside cannot come out for a while.
When looking down from above, Lin Shan had already guessed that there was a seal below, or the source of the strange phenomenon could not move.
Otherwise, such a powerful force could not be trapped at the bottom of this small lake.
Lin Shan's heart moved. Since he was here, wouldn't it be a waste if he didn't bring something back?
Then his body suddenly accelerated and rushed straight towards the strange coffin.
