[It was in the vastest and most uninhabited part of the Pacific Ocean that a warship attacked the oil tanker I was escorting.]
【after】
In fact, the sailors who detained us had very lax military discipline.
[So after five days, I managed to escape alone in a small boat with enough supplies and fresh water to last for a long time.]
【However】
When I finally realized I was free and drifting aimlessly on the sea, I was at a loss.
【because】
I'm not a qualified navigator, so I can only roughly infer that I'm in the waters south of the equator based on the position of the sun and stars.
I don't know my longitude.
There were no islands or coastlines in sight, and although the weather remained sunny, I drifted aimlessly under the scorching sun for countless days.
I was looking forward to seeing the passing ships.
But neither the ship nor the land appeared. Facing the endless, rolling blue ocean alone, I began to feel desperate.
But while I was sleeping, something changed.
I never knew the details; though I dozed off restlessly, and was often troubled by dreams, I never woke up.
When I finally woke up
I found myself trapped in a horrible black quagmire.
[As far as I could see, all I could see was a monotonous expanse of undulating mud, and my boat was stranded on a mudflat not far away.]
At this time.
Accompanied by the man's narration.
The scene in the live broadcast room changed slightly, and a dark and boundless continent appeared in the eyes of countless viewers.
When you see the scene above clearly.
Many viewers' expressions changed slightly at this moment.
On the vast plain.
It was filled with rotting dead fish and indescribable dead things sticking out of the disgusting mud.
Just rely on words.
It is impossible to describe the unspeakable horror that appeared in the vastness of death and desolation, which made people feel a fear that almost made them sick.
Is this the world of Cthulhu?
on the screen.
The man quickly got up from the mud.
He subconsciously looked around, a look of fear on his face.
Although he didn't know why he was afraid, he quickly and honestly climbed back to the stranded boat and swallowed his saliva.
The man analyzed reluctantly.
"Could this be due to some unprecedented volcanic activity?
"It lifted part of the seabed to the surface, exposing the land that had been hidden under the abyss."
"If that's the case...it's understandable."
The man took a deep breath at the thought.
That being said.
But the land that rose from under his feet must have been very vast!
Because even if he pricked up his ears and listened carefully, he could not detect the slightest sound from the surging ocean!
Moreover, what made the man uneasy was.
No seabirds, not even scavengers, were seen circling above the dead things.
Where the hell is this?!
He was sitting in a small boat that had turned over on its side in the mud.
After several hours of deep thought, as the sun slowly moved across the sky, the ship cast a light shadow.
The good news is that as the day goes by.
The ground was no longer as muddy as before, and seemed dry enough for people to walk on for a short time.
The man lay in the boat, barely getting any sleep.
Early the next morning.
The man packed up food and fresh water and prepared to cross the land to search for the disappeared ocean and any possible rescue.
He strolled across the dirt, frowning at the stench.
The man covered his nose, his face full of disgust.
"The soil was dry enough for walking on, but the stench of dead fish was so strong it was driving you crazy."
"However, compared to these trivial poisons."
"The most important thing is to find a way to leave as soon as possible."
"First, choose a direction and use the compass. The hills to the west are a good place. You can check the situation from a high vantage point."
After the man made up his mind.
He walked straight towards the hills in the distance.
After nightfall.
He camped there and continued his advance towards the hillock the next day.
It was not until the evening of the fourth day that he finally arrived at the foot of the hill.
The man surveyed the hill.
"...the height of the hills is much higher than it appeared to me from a distance."
"A steep ravine separates the hill from the surrounding ground, making it difficult to access it."
The man took a deep breath.
He was sweating profusely and had already run out of strength.
Decided to rest for a night.
Then continue climbing, sleeping in the shadow of the hill.
The fifth night.
After all the hard work.
The man finally climbed to the top of the hill!
however.
When he subconsciously looked up and looked down, he saw a bottomless sinkhole or canyon.
"...This is?!"
At this moment, the man couldn't help but swallow.
One of the reasons for his vague fear was the unchanging monotony of this rolling wasteland.
But at this moment.
He felt his fear become even stronger!
Even the moon's light cannot illuminate the dark abyss at the bottom of the pit.
He felt like he was standing at the end of the world, looking over the edge at the bottomless chaos in the eternal night, and his whole body trembled!
And as the moonlight rises.
As the moon rose higher in the sky, the man began to see that the slopes of the valley were not as steep as he had imagined.
Exposed rocks and ledges.
Convenient footholds were provided for the climb, and after about a hundred feet down the grade became quite gradual.
"...I have to go down and take a look eventually."
"If we continue to stay here, there won't be much food left. We might as well try to find a way out!"
The man gritted his teeth and made up his mind.
Driven by an indefinable compulsion...
He tried to climb down the rock wall with difficulty, stood at the bottom of the gentle slope, and stared at the gloomy valley bottom that had not yet been illuminated by the moonlight.
"Wait...what is that?!"
Suddenly, the man noticed a huge and strange object on the opposite hillside.
The thing stood straight in front of him.
About a hundred meters away from him, in the light cast by the rising moon, there was a flashing white reflection!
Wait until the man comes to his senses.
He immediately recognized that it was just a very large stone, but based on its outline and position.
The man noticed it clearly.
This is probably not a naturally formed boulder!
"Those man-made boulders nestled on the seafloor...could they have been dropped by a past caravan, or are they the work of primitive man?"
The man muttered a few words.
After looking more carefully.
He had an inexpressible strange feeling.
Although this huge stone is extremely huge and lies in an abyss that has been open at the bottom of the sea since the beginning of the world.
But he was very sure!
This strange object is a carefully shaped monolith!
Its massive body must have been crafted by hand, and perhaps even worshipped by some thinking creature!
The moment I thought of this possibility.
The man's hands and feet suddenly became cold, and he subconsciously felt extremely frightened!
Who erected this huge stone?
What kind of creatures are worshipping him?!
Just think about it.
It makes people feel creepy!
When they discovered this huge stone that looked like a stone tablet, the many viewers in the live broadcast room suddenly became alert.
"The first character to appear in the world of Cthulhu."
"What will it be like?!"
"This man clearly still has his sanity, yet he chose to commit suicide. Why on earth did he want Heyang to do this?!"
"Is the seabed surface exposed...under the Cthulhu Deep Sea?"
"I'm afraid there's something lurking."
"Ever since arriving on this continent, the atmosphere in the live broadcast room has always been extremely gloomy. It's completely different from before!"
"This is 3.5... ordinary people here don't dare to watch it."
And in the live broadcast room.
