Treadmill stumbled a few more steps and laid his hands on the wall to regain his poise. The place where his hand touched, it felt slimy and mushy. Some parts were sticky, but definitely cold and meaty. No one could tell what this mushy mess was in the darkness.

“Help me!” Treadmill started shouting as his fear overcame him.

“Have they still not woken up?” Liu Gan asked Yin He after walking back from tossing the last Black-Spot Variant corpse out the window of the ship.

Even now, the airship was still docked on the pier with a dozen chains fastening it down. It hadn't drifted off to the sea.

“Not yet.” Yin He shook her head as she stared at the group members in a comatose state within their sleeping bags. No matter what method was used, these members wouldn’t wake up.

“It is very strange, these hidden Black-Spot Variants have all been killed and tossed overboard. Why haven’t they woken up yet?” Liu Gan asked while deep in thought.

“I suspect that the main culprit behind this attack isn’t these Black-Spot Variants. Rather, it is something more powerful that lies beneath this ship. It is at least an Advanced Zombie. It has to be nearby, I sensed its presence underwater and it could be an immense threat to us,” Yin He speculated.

“I also suspect that. It must be type of underwater advanced zombie that can target the mind. These Black-Spot Variants were just hiding away obeying the orders of that Advanced Zombie,” Liu Gan agreed.

“What should we do now?” Yin He asked him.

“It is still drizzling outside right now, I will think of a way to get them ashore and far from this airship. That way we can avoid the long range underwater attack.” Liu Gan walked over to check on the status of every member again.

At this moment, every member was breathing rapidly with an arrhythmic heart rate. Their deathly pale faces matched the look of terrified people. Some of the members had rapid eye movements, as if they were in a nightmare and unable to wake up. No matter what Liu Gan shouted or how hard he shook their bodies, they wouldn’t react.

Yin He was the first to discover something strange from the shaking of the docked boat. Even the guard on duty, Han GuangMing, fell into a deep slumber and ignored the violent shaking of the boat. Yin He discovered that fact and managed to wake Liu Gan up. Afterwards, no matter what they did, they weren’t able to wake the others up from their slumber.
