Ashes Of Deep Sea

Chapter 718 - 718 715 Entrance

?Chapter 718: Chapter 715: Entrance Chapter 718: Chapter 715: Entrance After passing through a long slope and a small town that no longer held any living souls, only many rough human shapes embedded in the ground and on the mountain walls, the exploration team entered a valley filled with strange black stones.

The entrance to the valley was hidden, concealed amidst a large expanse of brambles and the remnants of “plants”, but Sherry’s “memory” clearly guided them to the exact location of the entrance.

The black rocks in the valley were ghastly and rugged, presenting an unsettling and bizarrely complex appearance. They did not seem to be the result of natural weathering, but it was also clear that they were not products of human carving.

They were more like a multitude of malformed creatures struggling to be “born” from the earth and cliffs, turning into stone only at the last step of growth; on some of these black stones, one could even discern nearly fully formed claws, tentacles, and even structures resembling eyes and mouths—awareness of these details caused even an experienced Judge like Fenna to frown involuntarily, a creepy and spine-chilling sensation as if permeating her very marrow, making her exceptionally alert.

And the swirling mist penetrated everywhere, also enveloping this eerily quiet valley.

“These stones feel as if they’re alive…” a Marine wearing a black cloak and adorned with the Triangular Holy Emblem of the Death God muttered softly, “Some kind of creatures, sealed within these black shells… I always feel like they’re about to move.”

“Control your imagination, and do not casually sketch such impressions in your mind,” the Reaper Priest from the Homeloss, who had been nearly silent since setting foot on the island, immediately interrupted the soldier’s mutterings.

Duncan glanced at the reticent Reaper Priest—a tall bald man clad in a black cloak with complex and dense black symbols tattooed all over his exposed skin, the multitude of symbols even covering his eyelids, giving the Priest a weird, gloomy, and terrifying demeanor.

Perhaps due to the awkward relationship between the Death Church and the Homeloss, the leading Priest did not interact much with Duncan on the way, but upon noticing the latter’s gaze, the oddly-appearing bald man still turned his head and nodded politely, “Do you have something you wish to ask?”

“I remember you are called Norm,” Duncan said with a nod, “After the Frost incident concluded, a large quantity of ‘Prime Element’ samples collected from the Frost pipeline system were sent to the Death Church headquarters, are you aware of this?”
