Chapter 854 The Deep Ones!
Chapter 854 The Deep Ones!
"What are you yelling for?!"
Hongying put her hands on her hips and used an even louder voice to completely suppress Wu Xiangnan's question.
"Wu Xiangnan!"
"Don't think that just because you've become the temporary head of Chennan Pass, you can act like you have a royal decree!"
Hongying deliberately emphasized the word "temporary".
Wu Xiangnan's face was ashen. He glanced at the fish-man monster on the deck and questioned, "What if something goes wrong if we act rashly without knowing the enemy's situation?!"
Hongying retorted defiantly, "With my spear in hand, the only ones who can cause problems are these damned monsters."
Wu Xiangnan calmed herself down and looked at Hongying, saying, "Alright, alright, then tell me what kind of monster this is?"
Hongying glanced at the strange fish-man monster on the deck, and her previous arrogance instantly diminished.
"Uh...this is,this is..."
"It's a mermaid!"
"Yes, these monsters are called mermaids. The beautiful ones are called mermaids, and the ugly ones are called ugly mermaids!"
Hongying pointed at the two fish-man monsters on the deck and said with absolute confidence.
Wu Xiangnan, holding his sword, sneered, "Heh, mermaid and ugly mermaid, you haven't even looked at the Night Watch's intelligence data, have you?"
"Isn't it...?"
Hongying scratched her head, glanced at the two fish-man monsters on the deck, and suddenly a brilliant idea flashed in her little mind.
"Oh, I see, these are Benboerba and Baboerben!"
"I saw them on TV when I was a kid, no wonder they looked familiar!"
Hongying looked at Wu Xiangnan with a confident expression and said with her hands on her hips.
Wu Xiangnan's lips twitched slightly. "Go to hell! This is a monster of the Ke type, a Deep One!"
"Among the four major factions of the Kreece, the Water faction's kin worship their father god Dagon!"
"This Dagon is one of Cthulhu's henchmen!!!"
Wu Xiangnan looked at Hongying with disappointment and explained to her the current information about the monsters of the Night Watch.
Hongying frowned. "So they were Cthulhu's minions. No wonder they could spray ink and escape."
Wu Xiangnan looked at Hongying with a mocking expression and said, "Oh, weren't you just bragging that you had the world at your fingertips?"
"How did something so powerful let that Deep One escape?"
Hongying immediately retorted, "Isn't it normal for someone with fire-type forbidden abilities to be bad at water combat?"
If we were on the ground, I would have shot him into a kebab by now!
Wu Xiangnan frowned as he looked at the corpses of the two Deep One monsters.
According to the current intelligence from the Night Watch headquarters, these Deep One monsters originally lived on the seabed far from the Great Xia Sea.
But now these guys have appeared in the near-shore waters, even approaching Chennan Pass to conduct reconnaissance.
It seems that Cthulhu, the overlord of the deep sea, is about to make a move against Great Xia!
This intelligence must be immediately relayed to the Night's Watch headquarters to prepare for the invasion of Great Summer by the Cthulhu Deep Ones.
"After you get back, submit a 30,000-word self-criticism and reflect on your actions!" Wu Xiangnan said to Hongying.
Hongying's eyes widened. "The Young Master?! Thirty thousand words?!"
"Let alone writing it, it would take me a week just to read it!"
Wu Xiangnan said impartially, "If you keep going on and on, I'll add another 10,000 words!"
Hongying clenched her fists, fuming, wanting to punch the annoying guy in front of her to death.
Unfortunately, the opponent had already reached the pinnacle of human potential and had also received guidance from Gonggong, the water god of the Great Xia Dynasty, mastering water-based supernatural abilities.
I can't fight them, and I can't run away, so I can only accept my defeat.
Hongying blinked her bright eyes at Wen Qimo, who was pretending to be dead.
Before Hongying could speak, Wu Xiangnan's voice rang out again from behind.
"Don't even think about having Wen Qimo write it for you. I can tell your handwriting apart very well. No matter how hard he tries to imitate it, he can't escape my keen eyes."
"If I find out that your examination was falsified, I will apply to my superiors to transfer you, this insubordinate guy, away from the front line."
"Since the Su siblings were transferred, our night watch team in Cangnan has been severely understaffed."
"If Captain Hongying wants to be transferred back to Cangnan, you submit a report and I'll approve it."
Wu Xiangnan looked at Hongying, who was trying to cheat, with a mocking expression.
Hongying quickly changed to a fawning expression and smiled at Wu Xiangnan.
"No, vice-captain, we've known each other for so many years, there's no need to be so ruthless."
Wen Qimo, who was standing to the side, quickly spoke up for Hongying.
"Yeah, vice captain, we've known each other for so many years, don't you know her personality? She's a typical example of someone with a sharp tongue but a soft heart."
“After we thought you were dead, Hongying would often secretly go to the cemetery alone to cry. She cried so sadly.”
Hongying blushed immediately and pushed Wen Qimo, saying, "Nonsense! I didn't go to cry!"
"It was windy that day, and sand got into my eyes!!"
Wen Qimo smiled without saying a word.
A rare tenderness appeared on Wu Xiangnan's face.
He was just about to use this as an excuse to withdraw Hongying's letter of self-criticism when suddenly, Leng Xuan's voice came through his earpiece.
"Actually, I've always had a question, and since you mentioned the cemetery, I'll ask it on behalf of the team leader and the others."
“Hongying, Qimo, now that the captain, vice-captain, and Lao Zhao have all been reborn, you should have removed their cenotaphs in Cangnan Cemetery when you left, right?”
Hongying and Wen Qimo exchanged awkward glances, while secretly looking at Wu Xiangnan with some embarrassment...
The Night's Watch was transferred too hastily, and these three had not yet been resurrected when they left, so their cenotaphs still remain in the Cangnan Cemetery.
The three who were reborn returned, and the entire 136th squad was so immersed in the joy of their reunion that they had completely forgotten about the incident.
If Wen Qimo hadn't reminded them today, and if the thoughtful Leng Xuan hadn't considered this point, perhaps when they returned to Cangnan, the three captains might have dug their own graves...
Um... literally, digging one's own grave, without any negative connotation...
Wu Xiangnan could tell from their expressions that these two didn't take this matter seriously at all!
"Vice Captain, listen to our excuses... no, listen to our explanations..."
Wu Xiangnan reached out to stop him, gripping the Han sword in his hand and pointing it at the red tassel.
"You, add ten thousand words."
Then, Wu Xiangnan pointed at Wen Qimo and said, "You, 30,000 words."
Hongying and Wen Qimo were extremely unwilling, but what could they do? They were the last members of the original 136th squad to leave Cangnan...
……
seabed.
The deep-sea creature that had been chased away by the red tassel swam desperately toward the seabed of the Indian Ocean.
Luckily, he had a trick up his sleeve, otherwise he would have been turned into a kebab by that girl in red with the long spear today.
I still feel lingering fear when I think about it now.
The deep diver descended to the ocean floor, completely unaware that a hidden, dark shadow, shimmering with a red moon, was following behind him...
