Chapter 172 The Real Ruthless Man

The lights in the house could not be turned on due to a power outage, and the conversation between Zhu Jue and Jeffrey took place in front of a clock that could automatically light up.

The bowl-sized aperture can only illuminate half of their respective bodies.

"drink wine?"

Jeffrey put a bottle of high-end wine "borrowed" from the mall like Zhu Jue in his hand and put it on the table.

Sitting down, half of the face is hidden in the darkness, and the other half of the face is still terrified under the reflection of the light.

"When I travel, I always prepare myself a drink."

Taking out the energy drink, Zhu Jue thought in his heart that he would have to ask the sponsor to add money after he went back.

"Aren't you afraid of me?"

Since the other party didn't drink, he simply lifted the cap of the bottle and blew on it. His gaze was still inadvertently glanced at the person beside him. The flesh and blood holes on his face and the writhing tentacles became more and more strange under his movements.

Jeffrey couldn't understand why the reporter didn't have a trace of fear on his face from the moment he saw him. It wasn't just pretending, he could feel it.

"I've seen too many monsters, and you look more handsome among those guys."

Picking up the energy drink and touching the wine bottle, each took a sip, Zhu Jue raised his eyebrows and said.

This is the truth. If all the guys I met before were called to form a team, Jeffrey would definitely make his C debut.

"handsome?"

Olivia couldn't get used to the fact that these two people just sat down and talked about their looks.

"Believe me, what Zhu Jue said is true. Although this Mr. Jeffrey looks very unusual, it is indeed much more pleasing to the eye than what he saw before."

As an old employee, Li Qinglian confirmed Zhu Jue's statement, after all, Jeffrey still looks like a man, right?

"is it?"

Probably because he felt that it was weird to be able to chat easily with others after becoming like this, Jeffrey’s expression was very awkward, and he found a topic to continue after a while,
"Have you dealt with quite a few monsters?"

"Of course, in my line of work, there is nothing easier than this to make big news. For example, I have recorded our conversation now. Don't you mind?"

Zhu Jue was also surprised by Jeffrey's calmness at this time. He thought that the other party would fall into the madness of self-denial just like the person he had seen before who was troubled by the blood of the Deep Diver, but now it seems that this is not the case at all.
"If I mind, why don't you take pictures?"

He said something ironic, and prepared to light a cigarette for himself. The moment the flame ignited, the tentacles on Jeffrey's face extinguished it, smashing it together with the cigarette.

They don't like fire.

Shen Sheng cursed a few dirty words, took out a pair of scissors from his side, cut off the tentacles that "caused him trouble" in front of Zhu Jue, and forced a cigarette.

Zhu Jue watched and smacked his lips, this is also a ruthless person.

The sparks of the cigarette butt flickered, and the smoke spit out from his mouth, hovering in front of him under the lamp, and then threw the cigarette and lighter aside together, then turned his head and said, "I don't mind if you make a video, and I I also know what you want to ask from me, I have a few requests, can you agree?"

"You said."

Zhu Jue is not in a hurry at this time. On the one hand, the conversation with the scary monster will become a very brilliant part of the video. He is sure of this; on the other hand, he actually admires Jeffrey. After all, he It is very similar to his situation to some extent, except that I may be luckier.

"You have to give my daughter a sum of money. I'm sorry for her during this time. I can't continue to protect her, and I don't want to stay by her side to harm her. That's why I came here to wait to die."

"No problem, don't worry about the consultation fee. If you don't believe me, you can tell me the account number now and transfer the money online."

"No need, just go back and give it to Anna. I don't know why, I believe in you, and don't think I'm normal now. In fact, my mind is very messed up. I can hardly remember my last name. How could I remember the account number? However, for a sailor on an ocean-going fishing vessel like me, this state can be regarded as seasickness after sleeping at sea for a few days, which is not a problem at all."

Jeffrey was a little confused in his speech, shaking his palms, and the light in his pupils began to fade, all relying on the cigarette and strong alcohol to refresh himself.

Even so, Zhu Jue still felt his tenacity.

As a sailor on an ocean-going fishing vessel, it goes without saying about his physical fitness. What is more powerful is actually the tenacity of will that has been tempered by staying in the vast sea for a long time.

If it were someone else, let alone calmly cutting off the tentacles on his face and smoking a cigarette, how could he say such a problem, he would probably collapse the moment he saw the tentacles growing on his face!
"Any other requests?"

"Well, you said that you often deal with monsters, have you ever killed monsters?"

Staring at Zhu Jue, Jeffrey's eyes were full of expectations.

"There have been so many experiences."

"Hahaha~ It's kind of interesting, then there's no problem."

He took a breath of the cigarette, raised his hand to wipe the blood from the wound on his face, and then said,

"Do you want to know why I am like this, and what happened to those guys in the outer town?"

A few months ago, Jeffrey Talos participated in the last ocean fishing before winter as usual, because the captain said that the place where they fished before had a submarine volcanic eruption and could not go, so he had to change the fishing ground, as long as he could get money, Of course he doesn't care where he goes.

However, it turns out that this time the route change is fatal!

"I saw it. It was a huge stone pillar built in the sea. I was sure that was not a natural product, but then I quickly realized that it was not a human creation either, because no one is, no one will build that Disgusting stuff, when the captain asked me to dive down to have a look, I did and I saw it. Huge boulders covered in moss and kelp, stacked on top of each other like they've become some kind of architectural structure, but I didn't See any designs related to stairs, those stones. those stones"

When a person wants to describe something, he will involuntarily recall the situation at that time. Jeffrey's mind is doing this now, and his way of recalling soon caused a violent mental shock in his mind. fluctuation.

"Hey, don't continue this topic, let's talk about something else."

Zhu Jue tried to stop him not because he was worried about Jeffrey's mental state, but because he found that he was just imagining according to the other party's description, and his own spirit was actually affected.

"The moss on those rocks dyed the whole sea water light green. I thought it was convex, but when I got closer, I found that they were sunken inwards. The sunlight reflected on them through the sea water, and they turned green. Nausea, I feel extremely disgusted!"

"Wake up!!!"

Noticing that Jeffrey seemed a little hard to control himself, Zhu Jue quickly reminded him.

"Cough cough ~ vomit ~"

The continuous sound of retching may be due to the effect of Zhu Jue's voice. Jeffrey's mood calmed down a little.

"At that time I passed out, and when I woke up, I found that I had been rescued back to the boat. The captain said that there was something wrong with the sea and I didn't know what the problem was. We didn't dare to stay there for too long. 10 of them had mental problems after they came back. Others who didn’t go into the sea were fine, but I only dreamed about that place at first, and then my body gradually changed. I didn’t dare to mention this to anyone because Even if it’s just a memory, it would make me uncomfortable. Not to mention this, about a month ago, someone suddenly approached the captain, saying that they wanted to know more about our ocean fishing. They claimed to be archaeologists, but from the first time I The first time I saw them, I knew they were not, those guys who are in town now, they are definitely not ordinary people!"

While speaking, the growth speed of the tentacles on Jeffrey's face was actually accelerating, and he seemed to feel something, and then he began to speed up his speech,
"The captain is dead, and so are the other sailors. Those people tricked them into coming to the island to discuss their rewards, but none of them came back. There is no strange fish with human hands at all. That's just a rumor they made up. The small town The constant rain around must have been done by them. They also want to do other things here, but no one believes me. I went back to the island to find out the situation. It’s too late, aren’t you a reporter, you go Expose them, they should be near the sea cliff near the shipyard, I have seen them there before, and our ship is temporarily parked there!"

After pouring all the remaining drinks into his mouth, Jeffrey got up from his seat and stood in front of Zhu Jue.

"It's a bit funny to say. I found it difficult to do it myself. It just so happens that you are here. It's much easier. Haven't you fought monsters before? You should carry weapons with you. Now, kill me!"

At this moment, Jeffrey's whole body began to swell, and the only ray of reason remaining in his eyes was close to collapsing.

"I'm fine."

It was the first time Zhu Jue met a monster who wanted to commit suicide, and he pursed his lips helplessly. He also knew that the only thing he could do in this situation was to give the other person a relief, otherwise it would be Jeffrey who would suffer.

Bringing the weapon case to his side, and taking out the blue wing pistol, Zhu Jue is still ready to have a good time.

"I have to say that I admire you very much. You are countless times stronger than the guy I met before who will become a deep diver."

Pointing the muzzle between the eyebrows, he pulled the trigger without hesitation.

Waiting for the moment of death, the chaotic thoughts diverged without limit, and Jeffrey once again saw the scene he saw in the sea a few months ago.

Among those cities beyond cognition built with unprecedented spatial dimensions and structures.

He saw the sleeping giant
At this moment, the torrential rain outside was inexplicably violent!
