A Different Anomaly Appeared

Fragments of memory quickly dissipated in Meng Lei's consciousness.

He slumped in a daze on the damp air mattress, his back against the cold porthole. His body was already drenched with sweat.

Until now, he had not been able to fully recover from the nightmare.

His consciousness switched back and forth between reality and dream. His brain kept hurting, and he was in a daze.

This dream was too bizarre, too strange.

Most importantly, it was damned real!

Meng Lei could even recall a lot of details about the humanoid monster hidden in the diving suit!

The terrifying organ as sharp as a bird's beak protruded from its throat, and there were also the twisted tentacles that wrapped around a hard shell.

The combination of rotten corpses and deformed creatures was like a combination of humans and monsters. It made one's scalp tingle!

It was as if everything had really happened!

Thinking about it now, Meng Lei felt a chill run down his spine and could not help but feel a lingering fear.

It was said that dreams were a subconscious reaction.

However, even in this deep sea environment, Meng Lei unconsciously imagined some terrifying things.

However, he would never fabricate such a terrifying monster out of thin air.

This had even exceeded his understanding!

That was why this terrifying nightmare seemed even stranger.

"Could it be that when I passed by that desolate forbidden zone of death, I was mentally affected by some terrifying existence in my sleep?"

Meng Lei frowned and felt that it was not impossible.

There were a lot of incomprehensible things on this terrifying and mysterious alien planet.

Previously, the players had encountered a similar situation. They had been temporarily bewitched by a loud sound.

If the strange dream just now was an incomprehensible existence that had mapped some real things into his consciousness,

then all of this could be explained.

"It seems that this sea abyss buried under the ice is far more terrifying than I imagined!"

"Why aren't those people who have been dead for a long time crushed by the endless pressure?"

"And how did that terrifying organ and deformed body come about?"

"Is it parasitic or mutated?"

Nothing was known.

Shaking his slightly swollen head, Meng Lei forced himself to stand up and quickly left the vicinity of the porthole.

After this incident, the transparent porthole had greatly traumatized him.

In the future, when he had nothing to do, he would not dare to go near the porthole again.

He took a bottle of water from the freshwater extractor and returned to the pilot seat.

He looked at his watch.

Actually, he had only slept for about four hours.

It was just past two-thirty in the morning.

Logically speaking, it should be time for a person to fall into a deep sleep.

However, Meng Lei was not in the mood to sleep, nor could he fall asleep.

Closing his eyes, all he could think of was the rotten diving suit and the twisted face that seemed to have melted!

Fortunately, after sleeping for a while, he had more or less recovered his energy and he was no longer so tired.

He manipulated the searchlight and looked around.

Meng Lei realized that after four hours of sailing, Bottomless Valley seemed to have left the barren forbidden sea.

Not only were the huge remains of the creature completely gone, but even the microorganisms that emitted a faint green light had disappeared.

It was dark all around.

Occasionally, he would see some strange-looking big fish circling around Bottomless Valley curiously.

There were also many huge jellyfish groups that floated up and down leisurely like dandelions wandering in the deep sea.

When Meng Lei saw these creatures, the game cheat that had completely lost its effect in the dream finally appeared again.

Meng Lei felt an unprecedented sense of security as he looked at the pale golden distorted words.

It was as if the existence of the game cheat was the standard by which he judged reality and falsehood, giving him a great sense of security.

He sighed with lingering fear and scattered the memories of the dream.

Meng Lei opened the communication channel, the trading market, the auction house, and a series of other segments one by one and skimmed through them.

Due to the time of the day, not many players were online at this time.

The communication channel was cold and cheerless. Compared to during the day, the frequency at which messages were refreshed could be described as the speed of a turtle.

Meng Lei looked for a while and did not find any valuable clues.

Most people were talking about meaningless topics.

Moreover, many of the topics came to an abrupt end. They chatted for a while before stopping.

Obviously, the participants of the topic had sent private messages. After all, there were no restrictions on private messages.

Either that, or they had used up all the number of times they could speak for that day and were banned from speaking by the System.

However, the trading market was relatively lively. From time to time, various goods would be freshly put up.

There were all kinds of strange things.

From the looks of it, there were many fanatic players in Channel 66671.

While everyone was asleep, there were still people laboring and developing quietly. It could be seen that their perseverance was extraordinary!

As for the auction system, so far, there was nothing particularly remarkable.

Most of the items auctioned were duplicates of the trading market, with no highlights.

Meng Lei watched silently for a while before lowering his head and pondering for a moment.

In order to prevent the System from refreshing, and wasting the remaining number of speeches, in the end, he picked out three relatively hidden settings from his own experience.

For example, the scanner deconstruction system at the bottom of the submarine, the advantages and disadvantages of various shipborne weapons at the current stage, and the relevant precautions when fighting the alien planet sea monsters. All of them were summarized and thrown into the communication channel.

As expected, he easily earned another three reputation points.

After doing all this, Meng Lei had nothing to do.

However, he did not let himself be idle. Instead, he stripped down to his underpants and began to exercise in the cockpit.

Meng Lei liked to train. Even on an alien planet, his strong self-discipline controlled him. He could not forgo improving his physical fitness.

Especially in the deep sea, the strength of his reaction speed was directly related to life and death. He could not slack off.

After some exercise, an hour passed quickly.

During this time, Bottomless Valley was guided by the navigation system and kept moving along the predetermined route.

From before he fell asleep until now, the narrow submarine that was ten meters square had already traveled sixty to seventy kilometers alone in the dark abyss!

The distance between him and the first outpost was gradually shrinking.

However, along the way, he did not encounter many anomalies, and most of them did not have much mining value.

Therefore, Meng Lei was too lazy to go into the water and directly set off at full speed.

Until the scene in front of him changed again.

The sonar detection system finally scanned an anomaly that he had never seen before and it instantly caught Meng Lei's attention.
