Why is my anime art style so weird?

They had deliberately created those strange disturbances to attract Xu Ming's attention.

This was the only way they could seek help after being cursed by Shuimu.

Without any interference, Xu Ming soon returned to the entrance of the prison on the underground level.

Kato Megumi continued her tireless Kagura dance in front of the formation.

Xu Ming quickly placed the second 'Water Essence' into the light sphere.

As the second fragment was inserted, the aquamarine light emitted by the sphere became even more dazzling.

"I'm going to find the remaining three."

Xu Ming greeted them and walked towards the door of the guardhouse.

"Please be careful with it."

Kato Megumi's voice came from behind me.

Xu Ming smiled slightly and did not turn around.

He simply raised his right arm and waved.

Arriving at the gate leading to the prison area, Xu Ming grasped the doorknob and pulled hard.

Whoosh!

The large iron gate opened with a metallic scraping sound.

A hint of surprise flashed in Xu Ming's eyes.

Stepping into the prison area, a cold, damp atmosphere hit me, making me feel as if I were in a cellar.

A foul stench followed, and Xu Ming couldn't help but cover his mouth and nose.

The corridor was lined with cells, and looking through the rusty iron bars, the cells were pitch black, and it was impossible to see what was inside.

These cells didn't even have ventilation windows, and the living conditions were extremely poor.

In addition, there are interrogation rooms deep inside the prison and human laboratory underground. The prisoners here are not treated as human beings at all. These prisoners are experimental subjects prepared for Orochimaru.

Xu Ming shone his phone light into the cell.

When he saw the scene inside the cell, his face immediately turned very ugly.

The cell floor was littered with numerous skeletons and several human skulls.

Xu Ming walked a few steps and saw similar horrific conditions in the other cells.

The number of prisoners who died here is probably quite large.

Xu Ming roughly counted that there were about six or seven human skulls in each cell, and there were more than twenty cells in total.

In other words, there are nearly 150 prisoners here, ready to be used as Orochimaru's experimental subjects at any time!

With a little thought, one can discover the dark meaning hidden behind this.

An underground laboratory where cruel human experiments were frequently conducted was built directly beneath the Ninja Guard Headquarters.

To say that the Konoha leadership was unaware of the situation is an insult to human intelligence.

This underground laboratory was likely built under the direction of Konoha's higher-ups.

The darkness hidden in Konoha Village was greater than he had imagined.

Xu Ming continued walking forward, with prison cells filled with white bones on both sides.

A chilly wind swirled in the corridor, like a vengeful spirit unwilling to leave.

Occasionally, the sound of dripping water could be heard from the cell.

Tick-tock!

Tick-tock!

The sound was unusually loud in the quiet cell.

Soon after, Xu Ming finally crossed the prison area and arrived deep inside the underground prison.

Along the way, Xu Ming did not find any of the ninjas' families. It seems that Mizuki was still very cautious and did not abandon them outside.

The souls of those abducted family members are most likely being held captive in the interrogation room at the front by Shui Mu.

Xu Ming's gaze involuntarily fell upon the incredibly thick iron gate in front of him.

Unlike the previous iron gate with bars, this iron gate only had a slit at the eye level.

Just as Xu Ming walked over, the crack opened, and a pair of bloodshot eyes stared straight at him through the gap.

"Another fool has come in, oblivious to his own mortality."

A hoarse, cruel voice came from the doorway.

Then the iron gate opened, and a man with long, light blue hair and wearing a green vest walked out.

It was Shuimu himself.

Xu Ming was somewhat surprised; this guy had actually come out on his own.

With a flick of his wrist, a kunai gleaming with a dark, cold light slid from his sleeve into his palm.

He raised his head slightly, his eyes filled with contempt, looking down at Xu Ming in front of him.

"Kid, I'll give you a chance to kill yourself. Otherwise, once you fall into my hands, I'll make you experience every kind of torture in the interrogation room. You'll be begging me to kill you then."

Chapter 437 The Cunning Shui Mu

Xu Ming frowned, and just as he was about to speak, he suddenly felt a cold chill in his throat.

Shuimu, who was standing opposite him and kept babbling on and on, suddenly transformed into a bunch of pythons and scattered.

At the same time, Mizuki, his face filled with murderous intent, appeared behind Xu Ming and slashed at Xu Ming's neck with a kunai.

That guy is so cunning!

He deliberately acted arrogantly to lower the enemy's guard and then deliver a fatal blow.

Fortunately, Xu Ming had received some intelligence in advance and was already prepared.

At the critical moment, the cross on Xu Ming's chest suddenly shone with golden light, and the domineering golden light instantly illuminated the entire underground prison!

Golden flames erupted from the cross and burned up the kunai in Mizuki's hand.

"!"

Mizuki immediately threw away the kunai.

Just then, he noticed that Xu Ming was pointing a strange machine at him.

Smile!

Xu Ming said with a smile, his smile full of sarcasm and mockery.

The next second, a purple-gold light instantly illuminated the entire underground prison.

"what!"

Shuimu covered her eyes and screamed in agony.

After the light faded, his entire body was covered in scorch marks, as if he had been burned, and he was almost unrecognizable.

Take advantage of your weakness to kill you!

Xu Ming quickly raised the crowbar and smashed it hard against his head.

Whoosh!

The moment the crowbar touched Shui Mu's head, he transformed into a bunch of pythons and scattered.

"Damn it! You just wait!"

An angry voice came from behind me.

As soon as Xu Ming turned around, he saw Shui Mu standing at the door of the interrogation room, throwing down a menacing remark before slamming the iron door shut with a loud bang!

This guy actually escaped!?

Although Xu Ming had already learned from Morino Ibiki that this guy was insidious, cunning, despicable, and shameless.

This was something Xu Mingzhen hadn't expected; this guy was so decisive in running away.

Xu Ming rushed to the iron gate and inserted a crowbar into the gap in the gate.

Just as he was about to pry open the iron gate, a strange sound suddenly came from behind him.

Click!

Xu Ming turned his head in surprise and saw the skeleton in the cell trembling violently before quickly assembling together.

Then Xu Ming saw skeletons emerge from the gaps in the cells and slowly approach him.

The skull's lower jaw kept slamming against its upper jaw, making a series of "clattering" sounds.

Xu Ming quickly raised his phone, aimed it at the skull, and pressed the shutter button.

Click!

The purple-gold light once again dispelled the darkness of the corridor.

The skull in front of Xu Ming was instantly shattered, and a thick layer of white ash covered the corridor floor in the blink of an eye.

There were just too many skeletons. More than half of them had been eliminated, but there were still nearly fifty or sixty left.

What's more troublesome is that these guys seem to have spotted Kato Megumi in the guard room and actually turned around and walked out of the cell.

Xu Ming's expression changed, and he had no choice but to temporarily abandon the pursuit of Shui Mu, turning around and running towards the entrance of the prison.

After a while, Xu Ming managed to eliminate all the skeletons before they swarmed into the guard room.

Xu Ming immediately turned around and went back to the iron door of the interrogation room.

With the powerful attribute boost from the Holy Sword of Physics, Xu Ming quickly pried open the iron door and entered the interrogation room.

Behind the door was complete darkness, and a strong, pungent stench, a mixture of fishy smell and the putrid odor of rotting meat, assaulted the senses.

Xu Ming turned on his phone's flashlight and shone it around.

"!"
