48 Hours a Day

Chapter 918: Underwater Spirits

Ten hours before the time was reversed, the wings of the shadow behind Zhang Heng disappeared, and he still had several monsters with half a man and half a rain frog hanging on him.

Thereafter, Zhang Heng's body also fell back into the sea under the influence of gravity.

His arrival also boiled the monsters below, as if they were the signal of the beginning of the carnival, and all the monsters had gone mad. Less than half a second later, Zhang Heng's gaze was blocked, but his arms, chest, back, legs... monsters everywhere.

The monster in the back arrived too late, had no place to hang up, and could only lie on his companion, so Zhang Heng was eventually wrapped up in a layer.

Even if Zhang Heng pulled out Betty's shell in this situation, it would not be useful because both sides were too close.

But Zhang Heng was surprised that the monsters didn't attack him immediately after he hit him. Instead, he carefully hid his teeth and nails and seemed afraid of accidentally hurting him.

Meanwhile, he took Zhang Heng all the way down.

Zhang Heng can't see his diving computer now, but can feel their depth dropping at a fast pace.

At the same time, Zhang Heng quietly estimated the remaining amount of compressed air in the cylinder. It's probably only a few bars away, so that's enough air for him to breathe for another two minutes.

Even with the time he held his breath, the situation became very less optimistic.

Even with Zhang Heng's constant calmness, he had to admit that he had little chance of turning himself over this time.

And after another minute and a half, Zhang Heng obviously felt that his breathing had become a little laborious. At this point, even if the monsters let him go, the remaining air would not be enough for him to swim from here back to the sea.

At this time, however, Zhang Heng completely calmed down.

He relaxed his body and stopped struggling, leaving the monsters to take him to an unknown distance.

And then about half a minute later, Zhang Heng found himself finally stopping, while the monsters lying on him seemed to be dwindling.

When the monster in his sight swam away, Zhang Heng saw the familiar scene again.

And now he's back in that underwater palace.

But unlike when he arrived, he was now leaning back against the dome in the middle of the palace, not far from the two empty thrones, and behind him were those giant astrolabe sculptures.

The half-man, half-fish frog monsters that brought him here have now retreated to one side.

Looking up at him slightly to the next point, it seems that Zhang Heng is still surrounded by fear of escape.

But Zhang Heng thought they were completely overwhelmed because now his diving computer is making a crazy alarm.

The compressed air in the cylinder has been completely depleted.

In other words, Zhang Heng is nowhere else to go but to remain in this huge undersea palace to die.

The good news is that he died quite lively at least, there are a lot of monsters beside him... the bad news is that until the last moment of his life, Zhang Heng did not see the real owner of this room, the two guys on the throne.

Zhang Heng suspected that at least one of them had something to do with what had happened to him in that hazy seaside town.

But it doesn't matter now either.

Because Hypoxia Zhang Heng's consciousness began to blur, he finally looked at the giant image behind his eyes, wondering if it was a pre-mortem hallucination, Zhang Heng felt that the image was slowly spinning.

Zhang Heng also wanted to look at it again, but his body was no longer allowed, so Zhang Heng took off his breathing apparatus and closed his eyes.

The next moment, Zhang Heng felt like he was back in his mother's womb.

It was a feeling of immense serenity and security.

He no longer had to breathe through his nose and mouth, as if there was an invisible expectation that he would be connected to the ocean, where the entire ocean would become his placenta.

Zhang Heng even has the illusion that the ocean is his true home compared to land.

The blue seawater wrapped him gently, and every pore of him stretched out in the water.

He has even forgotten the passage of time.

Zhang Heng originally thought it was the last hallucination of his life when his brain was hypoxic to the extreme, because it was said that all life on Earth originated from the ocean, and humans were no exception, so when death came, it might also make sense for the soul to return to its place of origin.

But when Zhang Heng opened his eyes again, he found himself neither in heaven nor in hell, but still in this underwater palace.

The difference is that the strong sense of asphyxiation caused by hypoxia has disappeared, replacing it with the wonderful fetal sensation that existed before.

Zhang Heng hesitated to take off the glasses on his head, and as a result his eyes did not feel any irritation or discomfort.

Zhang Heng noticed the monsters of the half-man half-fish frog nearby, and after seeing him reopen his eyes, his face also showed a glimmer of joy.

Instead of making way, however, they still surround themselves in a circle, placing Zhang Heng in the center.

Meanwhile, the star map of the dome is still moving slowly, much different from when Zhang Heng first arrived at this underwater palace.

Zhang Hengyin realistically perceived that the changes in his body were likely to have an inseparable system behind the rotating star image. Rather, this star image gave him the ability to breathe and move underwater. Zhang Hengyin should wait here until the rotation was over.

But Zhang Heng's heart gave a slight warning sign.

If he really waits for this image to stop, then something bad is likely to happen afterwards.

Zhang Heng immediately decided to leave the seabed palace.

He pulled [Betty's shell] out of his pocket so that he never found the opportunity to use it before, but now he can finally use it.

Soon the otherwise calm sea surface became irritated, and Hanlu at the other hotel was notified by the reception desk that there was likely to be heavy rain tonight, asking her to close the doors and windows.

[Betty's Shell] The original function was to consume anger and create storms at sea, but no matter how powerful the storm, as the depth of the sea increases, the energy will fade quickly until it disappears.

But this time, Zhang Heng re-used [Betty's shell] and found that he didn't need to provide much anger at all, and the scope of his role extended from sea to sea.

Zhang Heng could even direct the current, distorting the monsters of several half-man and half-fish frogs nearby. The original tight surrounding net revealed a void. Zhang Heng did not miss this opportunity and rushed out directly through a current.
