Chapter 47: Impact on the Lake Bottom (Please read on!)
Ripples appeared on the surface of the lake, and a snake head surfaced.
You Huan took a breath and sensed the smell floating in the air.
The smell of blood and hormones mixed together, and he immediately knew that the plot had progressed to the point where the first sacrificial blonde was killed.
The order of death of the sacrifices is strictly controlled by the Administration. These ignorant and pitiful young people must die in the order of death with the labels assigned to them.
When the first sacrifice was offered, the formation at the bottom of the lake produced an invisible effect...
The two are indeed related.
As the world of the heavens, this world is indeed much more perfect than the limited plot in the movie.
You Huan returned to the bottom of the lake and found that the large formation at the bottom of the lake was still emitting invisible waves from time to time, but not as violent as the first time.
It was as if the formation was making a sound, an unsatisfied response, it was craving for more sacrifices.
In its waves of energy, the entire lake near the bottom has changed drastically.
Under its influence, the water plants became more luxuriant and showed extremely twisted postures. Each water plant had different spots and grew various strange branches.
Some look like tentacles, and some look like human hands.
When You Huan approached these mutant water plants, these branches of various shapes took the initiative to attack him!
On the lake green leaves, various strange colors of light waves appeared, and in a dazzling and colorful light, the branches turned into tentacles and wrapped around him.
Some branches split outward from the middle into several petals, revealing their sharp thorn structures, trying to pierce into the scales of the king cobra.
You Huan shook his whole body vigorously, and the violent waves he created swept all the water plants aside.
Fortunately, although these water plants had mutated into something unknown, they were very weak and all fell down when shaken by the water waves.
He had just finished this action when he felt his vision blurry in the fluctuations coming from the formation below. Many difficult-to-see scenes flashed by quickly.
These scenes seemed to be filled with many things that were difficult for him to understand. Everything was vague, but it gave him a strange feeling in his heart.
It's not really fear, but more like the unfamiliarity of coming into contact with something completely new for the first time.
Just as he fell into a series of short hallucinations, water flow came from the side and a dark shadow rushed towards him.
At the last moment, You Huan's eyes became clear again, and he flicked his tail, slapping the black shadow that was swimming towards him away.
Under the powerful force of the snake's tail, the black shadow spun in the water for several weeks before it stopped in the distance in a daze.
This is a fish, the most common kind in the lake.
But its fins had expanded several times, with tiny tentacle-like structures extending outward, and a long tongue as long as a hand sticking out of its mouth.
"…"
You Huan looked at the mutated fish and mutated aquatic plants, and could vaguely sense that some changes were also taking place in his body.
It is just because of their larger size and higher vitality that this change is rapid in fish and water plants, but slow in him.
The energy emitted by the formation below will cause life to mutate!
So he no longer stayed at the bottom of the lake. He swung his tail and rushed forward and upward. On the way, he also took the mutant fish that he had knocked unconscious away from the bottom of the lake.
When we got closer to the lake, the influence of the formation disappeared. It seemed that the influence of the formation was very limited.
You Huan looked at the mutant fish floating motionlessly in the water, hesitant.
This thing...can I eat it myself?
There happened to be an ordinary little fish that was not affected and mutated passing by nearby, and he pulled it over with his tail.
The tail hit the mutant fish hard, breaking it in the middle and revealing the flesh inside.
He drove the small fish over to the mutant fish.
The simple-minded little fish naturally opened its round mouth and began to nibble on the mutant fish's flesh.
After a while, the little fish was still active and there was no change.
You Huan wanted to wait a little longer, but he didn't have much time. The plot of "The Cabin in the Woods" all took place within one day.
Let's do it! Anyway, even if something abnormal happens to the King Cobra, he won't really die!
With a snake bite, he swallowed the mutant fish into his stomach.
[Strength Point +1]
There was no evolution point prompt, but I actually got 1 reinforcement point.
This one strengthening point was used by You Huan on [Infinite Growth] which is linked with [Ten Thousand Poison Body].
[[Infinite Growth] (+1) +1 Effect: The body can be compressed and enlarged to a certain extent. Only the volume and density change, and the weight remains unchanged. ]
You Huan spits out snake tongue.
This is... changing size at will!
The strengthening effect was beyond his expectations. He was very surprised and immediately tried it on the spot.
After a strange feeling of squeezing, the nearly twenty-meter-long king cobra continued to shrink until it became a small snake one meter long.
His whole body was compressed to extremely terrifying levels!
The compressed body tissues affected his explosive power, making it much lower, but his small size made him more flexible and stealthy.
He tried to expand again, and it could become two or three times longer than its original length, but this function was a bit useless. The size increased, the weight remained the same, the density of the whole body decreased, and all functions were affected.
It's just a target with no defensive or offensive power.
He returned to his normal size, and first used up all his saved evolution points to upgrade.
[Level: Lv.5→Lv.6 (51/320)]
He shed his skin on the spot, and it seemed that the growth that had been suppressed by hibernation had burst out all at once, and he directly reached twenty meters in length.
Then, shrinking into a small snake of more than one meter in length, You Huan slowly crawled up to the lakeshore from a bush.
Although the mutant creatures at the bottom of the lake might be a treasure trove of reinforcement points, he was very wary of the influence emanating from the formation at the bottom of the lake.
This is just one sacrifice. After the next sacrifices are made one by one, won't the influence of the formation be further strengthened?
This formation might be related to the "Ancient God" in the movie?
If he stayed a little longer, he might mutate into something unknown.
It is better not to have too much contact with this kind of strange external power.
After landing, he headed towards the cabin in the woods.
His original plan was to stay in the lake until the hero and heroine found the elevator leading to the underground base, then go down with them, and then release the monsters to eat them in batches.
But now that he can compress into an inconspicuous little snake, he can act in advance.
At this time, near the cabin, the tobacco man Marty, who was taking a walk, was brought into the house by the Thor man who suddenly rushed out of the woods.
Outside, Buckner's zombies are closing in on the cabin!
After an experience where zombies almost broke into the house, the four people remaining in the house realized that something was wrong.
The Thunder God Man seemed like a reckless man, but he actually said calmly, "We need to get together."
In the control room of the Administration, the two responsible persons frowned slightly when they saw this group of people gathered together.
According to the routine of horror movies, these people should act separately and give the zombies a chance to defeat them one by one.
So they pressed the button and a colorless chemical sprayed around the Thunder God Man.
After inhaling the gases, Thor's intelligence instantly dropped and he suggested that everyone return to their own rooms.
Although the others felt something was wrong, they acted subconsciously under his guidance and returned to their own rooms in the cabin.
As soon as they entered the room, the door was slammed shut and locked under the control of the Administration!
The sound of the door closing with a bang was also heard by You Huan.
At this moment, he was outside the cabin, and in his sight, he saw a staggering zombie walking towards the window of a room.
