All I saw was a gray sky all around, with no distinction between heaven and earth, only the swirling wind visible to the naked eye, and occasionally a few flashes of blue, as if I had entered another world completely.
Mixed in these swirling gray winds were many torn trees, animals, and octopus heads.
But they won't fall down, they will just keep spinning and dancing in the wind, like a banquet of death.
If you stand here and look up, you will feel that you are in the center of the world, and you will feel as if you are abandoned by the whole world.
The feeling here is shocking yet lonely, great yet hypocritical.
"We have entered a typhoon, right?"
After a long time, Gu Zhuo asked in a low voice.
"Well, we should have entered the eye of the typhoon. There is no wind in the eye of the typhoon, and there won't be any weather changes."
Chaoying answered him.
Unexpectedly, the fierce battle with nature just now caused several people to directly enter the eye of the typhoon.
Gu Zhuo stared at it blankly for a long time, and then continued to ask:
"Then are we safe in the eye of the typhoon?"
"For the time being, it should be."
Chaoying was not sure, so he could only answer him this way.
Gu Zhuo did not continue to speak. He listened to the sounds around him. There was only the sound of distant wind, as if blowing in from the gap in another world. He was in a trance, so unreal.
Among the distant wind sounds, there were also some strange noises mixed in. It seemed like something, like a fish tail, was flapping on the ground.
This sound is very strange and terrifying. It makes people feel creepy in this space that is like a different world. It's like there are countless ants crawling in the bone marrow, trying to crawl into your heart along your bones and take your heart away.
The liver is eaten away bit by bit.
"Did you hear that? That voice."
Gu Zhuo got goosebumps all over his body and asked Chaoying and the others.
"You mean that sound of something slapping on the ground?"
Jia Sheng's voice rang out and he was the first to reply to him.
"Did you hear that too?"
Hearing Jia Sheng's reply, Gu Zhuo's heart was clenched and at the same time he couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
It seemed that the sound was not his hallucination, but a reality, and he had not yet experienced any mental problems. His nerves were always tense, like a taut string that seemed to be broken at any moment.
If this continues, sooner or later I will have a nervous breakdown.
"I heard it. The sound was uncomfortable and tight. I didn't know what it was coming from. It seemed far away and yet very close."
Jia Sheng said with a heavy tone. It seemed that he was also very irritated by this thing.
Gu Zhuo turned his head and looked at the two women in the rear driver's seat. They looked much better now, at least better than before.
"Did you all hear that too?"
Gu Zhuo asked them.
Both men nodded.
"I'd like to go and see what this thing is, pretending to be a ghost here."
Gu Zhuo couldn't bear to be disturbed, and thought that the source of the sound might be the culprit of the typhoon, so he stepped on the accelerator, still holding the helicopter tightly with one mechanical arm, and drove a little distance forward.
The further we drove forward, the clearer the strange sounds became.
Until the end, it was completely blasting in their ears, and it was difficult to ignore it.
Gu Zhuo could clearly tell that the thing hitting the ground must be wet. It was like the long hair of a drowned water ghost, crawling over and over on the ground, trying to catch the next scapegoat.
Countless horrific scenes flashed through his mind, and Gu Zhuo's expression gradually darkened, because he just suddenly thought of something.
The moment that thing appeared, all possibilities fell into place.
"Damn, damn, damn, it can't really be it..."
Gu Zhuo murmured and cursed, feeling anxious.
When he drove the car forward for a short distance, the true scene at the center of the storm was finally revealed in front of them.
The moment he saw the real scene, Gu Zhuo was completely speechless. He just hit the steering wheel hard, the veins in his temples jumped, and he was completely in a state of rage.
It really is it!
That giant octopus that once appeared in the fog, that kept using him as a plaything in his nightmares!
I saw that its huge dark body was constantly rotating at this moment, and its countless tentacles were constantly flapping on the ground. It made a loud "pat-ta-ta-ta" sound, like hundreds of war drums being beaten at the same time.
Eggs were continuously laid under its body, and the eggs burst open, and countless octopus heads crawled out. As soon as they crawled out, they were sucked into the air, and then were thrown to the world outside the typhoon through the rotating typhoon.
The octopus heads that kept falling down that Gu Zhuo and the others encountered outside turned out to be caused by this!
And looking at the movements of this giant octopus at this moment, it must be that this typhoon is also caused by its continuous high-speed rotation.
"Gu Zhuo, what is this..."
Jia Sheng's horrified voice came from the communication device. He had never seen such a disgusting and weird scene, and he had never seen such a weird creature.
His sanity was about to be wiped out by the sight before him.
"That's a monster, a real monster."
Gu Zhuo had no choice but to answer him this way. He understood Jia Sheng's mood at this time. When he saw this giant octopus for the first time, he was confused and almost crazy.
"Now how to do?"
Jia Sheng's brain was completely empty and he could only listen to Gu Zhuo in everything. He asked Gu Zhuo helplessly.
Gu Zhuo did not answer. He looked at the giant octopus that was spinning at high speed in front of him. Its tentacles were like windmills, tearing countless cracks wherever they rotated, as if the air was torn apart.
The top of it is the top of the entire typhoon, like a mushroom cloud, covering the entire world.
The giant octopus didn't know whether it didn't notice them or for some reason, but it was still spinning around on its own, with no intention of attacking Gu Zhuo and the others.
"Chaoying, the safety in the eye of the typhoon is temporary."
Gu Zhuo asked her, as if he wanted to verify something.
"Well, generally speaking, the eye of a typhoon will only stay in one place for about one to two hours. After this time period has passed, the eye of the typhoon will move, and the place will still be immediately replaced by the typhoon."
Chaoying answered him, she seemed to have guessed what Gu Zhuo was thinking.
Gu Zhuo nodded, did not answer her, and turned to Jia Sheng:
"Jia Sheng, I will let the robotic arm release you in a moment, and you will take off to a lower altitude, not too high, to ensure that my robotic arm can catch you at any time. Then you will listen to my instructions in the air and be ready to launch at any time.
Missiles, let’s attack that giant octopus together, do you understand?”
"Understood."
Although Jia Sheng's sanity was about to be wiped out, he still maintained 100% execution ability for Gu Zhuo's words.
He put his right hand on the touch screen again, and the moment Gu Zhuo's robotic arm released him, he immediately controlled the helicopter to fly to a lower altitude.
Then, he was always waiting for Gu Zhuo's instructions, and the two shoulder-fired missiles were ready to go.
Gu Zhuo, on his side, also aimed his air cannon at the giant octopus.
If you keep avoiding the fear in your heart, you will only be trampled by fear forever. But if you muster up the courage to face your fear, then you can truly defeat it.
Gu Zhuo took a deep breath and slowly charged up the air cannon.
He will try today to completely solve the nightmare that has troubled him!
