882 Strange (2/2)
He no longer dared to look at the symbol and simply shifted his gaze to a corner of the room.
On a blackboard, there were many loose pieces of newspaper reports stuck on it. Some of these pieces were turning yellow, and there were even fresh blood marks on them.
”Sailor Rode caught a gigantic sea monster!”
”Prehistory ten thousand years, who were the ones that dominated the ocean…”
The ones in front were evidently research materials that focused on ocean organisms.
After that, the contents of the various reports changed drastically.
”Coal explosion in Warm Level Town, hundreds dead!”
”Shocking! Clashes of the gangsters? Or the collective uproar of the lunatics? The truth concealed by the kingdom!”
”Massive influenza break out in Cecil! Over ten thousand deaths to date! Ettoman announces an indefinite blockade on Cecil and the rejection of any goods and people into the country…”
”Phenomenon across wheat fields in the country!”
…
Seeing all these reports, Donald could not help but sigh. When he found out all the tragedies that were happening across the world recently, even his hair started to turn white.
”Eh?”
Upon closer inspection, he discovered something distinctive.
Among these black and white photos, there were always circles marked out by a red marker.
Donald took a closer look and found a symbol within an inverted triangle—an eye! It was the same as the blood symbol!
It appeared on a ruined wall left behind in the coal explosion and also on the bodies of those lunatics. During the wheat field phenomenon, it was also clearly displayed.
The wheat field phenomenon's sign was extremely large, and Donald could not help taking another look at it.
It felt almost like an illusion when the eyes in the photos seemed to blink at the same time.
”Ahh!”
Donald shuddered as he took a step back, and goosebumps started appearing on his body.
”This symbol… Evil God?”
He focused on his task as he looked at the very last symbol on the board—'This symbol belongs to the Deep-Sea Stalker >'.
”Deep-Sea Stalker?”
Donald rubbed his chin.
Clang!
A sound rang out from an adjacent bedroom.
”Parsi?”
Ruxis rushed into the room and saw a semi-deranged Parsi.
The previously elegant and graceful scholar currently looked like a skeleton with close to no hair and sunken cheeks. There were also many large scars on his arms.
”Ahh… stay away from me!”
Presently, his eyeballs were bulging violently as he desperately shrank into his wardrobe.
”What happened?”
The moment Donald entered the room, he furrowed his brows.
This was because, within the bedroom, the symbols were everywhere. It was smeared in blood all over the four walls, ceiling, floor, and almost everything else.
”No… He's here and he's watching me!”
Parsi was going crazy in the wardrobe and constantly pushing Ruxis' hand away.
”Who?”
No longer concealing himself, Donald stepped forward with a ring of water surrounding his body.
”Stalker of the deep sea! An existence with a twisted soul… He is one of the ancient rulers of the ocean, and now he is back… with his brothers! They are causing massacres, spreading despair, and fermenting suffering… Because this is what makes them happy, and they can even draw strength from it!” Parsi shouted in tears. ”All of you will die!!!”
Buzz!
At this moment, Donald felt a burning sensation from the emblem in his hands, and he subconsciously took a few steps back.
Buzz!
All the blood eyes in the room blinked at the same time.
The indescribable darkness descended, and it felt as though the entire room was being dragged into the deep sea.
”Ah… Ah…”
Donald's clothes became drenched, and water dripped from his hair. He took a deep breath and even licked the water by the side of his lips.
The salty taste made him realize that this was undoubtedly seawater.
”Ruxis? Ruxis?”
He looked around and found that there was one less person in the room!
Ruxis had actually disappeared. Only Parsi was still trembling in the wardrobe and using his clothes to shield himself like a massive rat.
Donald grabbed him by the neck and dragged him out as he shouted, ”Since these eyes are watching you… Why did you still draw them… Tell me!!!”
