Charlotte's eyebrows raised. He heard the source of the sound, which was not far to his left. He didn't feel the fear that ordinary people would.In other words, at this moment, for some unknown reason, his emotions were suppressed to the extreme, but he could still think calmly, identify the location, and walk towards it.

"Then, what is that!" Another pirate screamed, and then there was a burst of footsteps and several muffled sounds, as if someone fell to the ground in a hurry.

"Shut up!!" Kagemaru was so frightened that he almost screamed. He couldn't help but turned around and shouted loudly, but his voice was a little out of tune. It was obvious that he was really scared just now.

"What do you call a little thing? What's there to shout about?" Kagemaru cursed, turned around and walked away, shining a flashlight on the ground and saying, "I saw something... Damn!" Just when he saw something clearly, Kagemaru My hair stood on end and my whole body felt itchy.

That was actually a corpse!

And it was an unusual corpse, otherwise the pirate would not have stepped on it, but would have tripped over it. The corpse was obviously that of a pirate, with a pair of horns tattooed on its shoulders, but it was not Ruikai.

It was as if the inside of his body had been evacuated, leaving only a layer of human skin with thick fat. The pores were large and dripping with blood. Part of his head seemed to have been turned inside out. Under the light of a flashlight, You can clearly see the scalp and the blood-stained hair roots.

"evil!"

One of the pirates couldn't help but spit it out, and even someone like Kagemaru, who was used to seeing corpses, couldn't help but look livid.

"What is this!" A pirate couldn't help shouting to cover up the fear in his heart, but Keimaru slapped him in the face: "Calm down! This should be just a mechanism!"

Kagemaru said that he didn't quite believe what he said. What kind of mechanism could create such a horrific corpse? This was not just death, but... the entire scalp turned over. Under the light of the flashlight, whether it was nerves or blood vessels, Muscles, every detail appears.

Silence, a strange atmosphere slowly spread.

A new pirate couldn't help but screamed and ran back, but after running a few steps, he was grabbed by a pirate next to him and slapped him. The fear dissipated only after the severe pain. A few points.

"Don't be silent. Say a few words occasionally to focus your attention." Keimaru said softly.

But at this time, he saw Charlotte bending down, squatting next to the human skin corpse, seeming to be turning something, pressing his hands on the thick fat, making a squeaking sound, and the sound echoed in the corridor. , extremely weird.

Everyone felt goosebumps when they heard it, and the sound of nails scraping against the skin came from the darkness. Apparently many people couldn't help but reach out and scratch their skin.

Kagemaru shouted in shock: "Charlotte, what are you doing!?" He broke out in a cold sweat.

Charlotte frowned. He didn't feel disgusted by the corpse, but...a little curious?His expression was as if he was looking at some puzzle, and his brain was running rapidly. He pinched the layer of human skin with his fingers and made a light sound, as if he understood something.

When they saw him reaching out and squeezing the human skin, the pirates standing nearby were shocked and their faces went numb: "Xia, Brother Xia Luo!"

"This corpse must have been killed by some mechanism." Charlotte responded after a while. He reached out and grabbed the layer of skin, blood and oil dripped down, and shined a flashlight on it: "Look, it's above Are there some small holes?"

"Hey, it's true." Kagemaru didn't react for a while. When he got closer, he realized that he was getting very close to the skin, and he couldn't help but feel his stomach churn.

Charlotte ignored Kagemaru's livid and somewhat pale face, but continued: "Looking at this shape, I guess the pirate stepped on or touched him after he walked here, well, anyway, It was a mechanism that was triggered, and then some small tubes or something appeared out of nowhere, sucked out the inside of his body, and then pulled it out instantly. It was also this pressure reaction that made his scalp turn over."

As Charlotte said, she suddenly realized that she had never learned these things before?Could it be those lost memories again?Why are you so skilled?What did I do before?

&

nbsp; Unable to help but complain about the self before amnesia, Charlotte threw the human skin down and stood up: "This passage is not safe." After saying that, his hands felt a little sticky and greasy. , casually smeared it on the face of a pirate next to him...yes, on his face.

"What did you do... this... vomit..." The pirate then vomited loudly.

Charlotte didn't notice that since he entered this temple, his expression had always been strange, dull and indifferent.That half-smiling expression has never appeared before.In the past, let alone touching this human skin, just seeing it would have made me feel somewhat uncomfortable. But now, let alone touching it, he picked it up to play with and study... The strange thing was that he was completely unaware of his own changes. Know.

"Well..." Infected by Charlotte's calm expression, Keimaru calmed down, but his expression was still a bit strange, but it was no longer because of the corpse, but the boy in front of him.

This kind of thing, compared to seeing the corpse, gave off a bit of a biting chill.

Could it be that he was possessed by something?

Not to mention him, even some pirates who saw this scene couldn't help but feel uneasy. Charlotte's calmness, rationality, and the calm and dull expression on his face that looked like a machine, entered into with him. His previous behavior was as if he was a different person.

Secretly, they were already wary of Charlotte. What's more, this wariness meant to suppress fear... No, Charlotte had become a source of terror in a certain sense.

"Keep going." Kagemaru had a gloomy face and returned to the front of the team. However, he couldn't help but look back and glance at Charlotte. His expression could not be seen clearly. His black robe looked mysterious and strange in the darkness.

"This kid..."

After turning the corner, there is a staircase going down. There is still no light, but it is a little narrower than the walkway. Using a flashlight, you can also see the walls, rough stones, built in one piece. , no seams can be seen.

While walking, everyone will occasionally see some corpses with strange dead shapes. What everyone is thinking is one sentence: "It's great to come in a day late."

But not long after walking, they began to occasionally trigger some mechanisms.

The most terrifying time was when a pirate tripped due to lack of light and didn't pay attention. He stumbled a few steps and hit a wall. As a result, countless extremely sharp thorns protruded from the entire wall, making the nearby area look very red. The five pirates near the wall all had their thorns penetrated. When the thorns were retracted into the wall, those who fell on the ground were no longer human.

As he walked, Keimaru's expression was also uncertain.

Charlotte was smart. He closely followed the footsteps of his predecessors. Since the other party did not trigger the mechanism, there was a high chance that he would be safe. He did not care about how many people died.

In this way, I moved forward cautiously but inevitably with bumps and bumps. I don't know how long it has been.Even Charlotte's physique began to feel tired.The gasping sound of the guy behind him had become much heavier, and he suddenly said: "We have walked nearly thirty kilometers of stairs. The slope of the stairs means that we have already gone twenty kilometers deep into the ground, and we are already at the bottom of the sea. Bar?"

Due to fear and fatigue, they have already forgotten what their purpose is.They just moved forward silently and numbly. It wasn't until Charlotte reminded them that they suddenly woke up. There was unspeakable fear on their faces. Their eyes unconsciously raised their eyes upwards, where... there was a vast expanse. Ocean?This... is the bottom of the sea?

Unprecedented fear struck, and a pirate couldn't help shouting: "Captain, it's better to retreat! Maybe Ruikai and the others have been wiped out in front!"

"..." Keimaru was silent for a while, then turned around to look. The stairs below were still dark. He couldn't see the bottom, and he didn't know how long it would take before he could reach the other side.

Just when Keimaru was about to speak.

His eyes suddenly lit up, as if someone had thrown a flash bomb here, intense and dazzling.

The sudden bright light somewhat obstructed everyone's vision. Even Charlotte was temporarily blinded for a few seconds. When he opened his eyes again, he found that he was alone in a bright small room.
