I write obituaries for the gods

She continuously tore apart the tentacles that surged from the facility along her path, the wind blades spinning at high speed—

"Boom boom boom boom boom!"

After Xilena shared the burden, the investigators finally had a chance to catch their breath.

Even so, most of them were already close to their physiological limits—at a depth of 4.12, even with stamina stabilizers and deep-sea suits, it was difficult for a person to last long.

“Charging progress...60%, too slow.” Wu Hao’s hands were trembling.

Jiang Zhengge didn't speak. He just stared at tide Leina's back as she led all the tentacles away and sliced ​​them open with wind blades.

How many secrets is that girl hiding from him?

He took a deep breath, feeling the intense pressure on his chest: the warp was destroying his body.

Suddenly, Xileina, who was some distance away, was blasted to the ground by a tentacle.

She got up and raised her hand to manipulate the gale to tear apart the tentacles in front of her, but the wind was visibly much weaker.

As her strength waned, she began to get injured, falling down again and again, struggling to get up each time.

"She can't hold on any longer."

Jiang Zhengge glanced back at the charging gauge: 75%.

There wasn't enough time.

"We have to go help her." Despite the high blood pressure in his lungs, Jiang Zhengge picked up his gun and headed towards the distant battlefield.

His hand was grabbed.

Jiang Zhengge turned his head and saw that it was Wu Hao who had grabbed him.

"She's a demigod, can't you tell?" Wu Hao muttered. "Demigods are all lackeys of the Foundation, have you forgotten?"

"Three years ago, there were traces of demigods in the subspace where the Sirens descended. Have you forgotten?"

"What if...this was all orchestrated by the Foundation? That thing is their secret, and she joined the Bureau of Investigation just to lure us here and clean up the mess for the Foundation."

Jiang Zhengge twisted Wu Hao's hand away.

"Whatever her purpose is, we must complete the mission."

Jiang Zhengge gritted his teeth.

"If the Sirens wake up, the disaster of three years ago will repeat itself."

"Everyone!" he suddenly shouted, "Anyone who can still move! Come at me!"

"......"

Xileina felt her power disappearing.

The feeling was exactly the same as it had been three years ago; she could sense that thing's consciousness was awakening—it wanted to use her as a vessel to descend into this world.

She will become the next Poseidon, the next Ao Guang, the next Katrina.

Xilena had given up on defense; she used her remaining strength to desperately protect the reaction device hanging on her waist, waiting for Katrina to appear.

Once Katrina appears and devours Xilena, she will activate the detonation device.

In this way, she could take Katrina down with her.

"..."

Just as Xileina's consciousness began to fade, a gunshot rang out:

"Da da da da!"

Suddenly, a pair of large hands protected her shoulders. The girl looked up and saw Jiang Zhengge holding a gun, scattering all the tentacles that were trying to get close to her.

"Go quickly... to the escape pod..." Xileina whispered.

"Even if you die, we won't be able to leave!"

Jiang Zhengge glanced at tide Leina, his expression complex.

"After you go out, explain everything to me, okay?"

tide Lena's eyes flickered slightly, then she nodded gently:

"Ah."

The siren seemed to realize that the reactive core at Xileina's waist was the real threat. Its tentacles ignored the escape pod in the distance and instead began to fight around Xileina.

This was a one-sided massacre, with Bureau of Investigation agents dying one after another under the tentacles of the Sirens.

They are unable to use their psychic abilities, endure the high pressure of the depths of the warp, and their movement is further restricted by their deep-sea suits.

They were no match for the high-speed sirens.

But everyone fought to the very last moment.

"Ughhhhh!"

A tentacle swept Wu Hao to the ground, leaving a bloody wound on his abdomen.

The battle quickly came to an end, and only Jiang Zhengge and tide Leina remained standing on the battlefield.

"Da da da da da!"

Jiang Zhengge fired at the oncoming tentacles, but with a "click," his bullets missed.

He was given almost no chance to react before a tentacle swept down—

"careful!"

tide Leina tackled Jiang Zhengge to the ground, her tentacles sweeping across her back and tearing open her deep-sea suit.

Jiang Zhengge saw the pain on tide Leina's face. He pulled the girl into his arms, took the gun from her hand, and fired at the tentacles in the air.

"Da da da da da!"

After emptying the magazine, Jiang Zhengge dropped the gun, hugged tide Leina, and knelt on the ground.

The two looked up and saw that the Sirens seemed to have realized their prey's dead end, with countless tentacles hovering in the air and eyes looking down.

“There was no need for us to come,” tide Leina whispered in Jiang Zhengge’s arms. “Its target… is me. After it devours me, it will be blown up too…”

Jiang Zhengge lowered his head and brushed aside the girl's bangs.

“I won’t let you die alone,” he said softly.

He took the reaction core from Xileina's waist, and the two of them stared at the shimmering blue light inside the core.

"Fool," Xileina chuckled, "Gypsies are all liars, haven't you forgotten? I lied to you, and you even went to die with me..."

“They are Roma,” Jiang Zhengge said.

The two pulled to either side, and the reaction core emitted a blue light.

Almost simultaneously, the swarm of tentacles pounced down, intending to devour the two of them completely.

Just then...

With a gentle swipe of a hand, the tentacles suddenly stopped.

At the same time, accompanied by a crisp snap of fingers...

The reaction core shattered into two pieces before the explosion.

"...!"

tide Lena suddenly raised her head and saw a burly figure standing in front of her, his dark blue eyes gleaming.

The moment she saw that face clearly, her mouth opened slightly wide:

"elder brother..."

That face that has flashed through my dreams countless times...

"elder brother...?"

Her brother stood in front of her, his skin ashen and his expression stiff.

On his chest, Xileina saw a shimmering, pale blue bubble.

“How is that possible…” Jiang Zhengge said in a low voice.

Looking at tide Leina and Jiang Zhengge, "Brother" tilted his head slightly.

“You called me brother,” the brother said softly. “It’s strange, I don’t know you, but the subconscious of this body remembers you… Xilena Boswell, right?”

"You are..." Xileina murmured, "Who?"

“My codename is Triton,” the demigod frowned slightly. “I was contained in the Black Abyss facility as a host body to drive the activities of the entity ‘Multi-Eyed Sirens’.”

“However, this entity has developed a strong desire to devour you,” he nodded slightly, “It seems to crave to consume you so that its true form can descend upon this world… Interesting…”

"The Sirens want to devour Xileina?" Jiang Zhengge murmured.

Triton nodded slightly:

"When Shirena Boswell reached the right age, her adaptability attracted codename Katrina, the target path... New Orleans... the Rain City... and then here..."

Triton's expression became somewhat puzzled:

"It's trying to devour you, but instead of running away, you're getting closer?"

"I'm going to put an end to this," Xileina said softly, panting.

Jiang Zhengge looked at tide Leina with some disbelief.

The Sirens were awakened because Xileina participated in the operation...

The Sirens... came to the Rain City after following Xilena?

So, were the deaths of Dad and Mom also because of tide Leina?

No...it's not her fault. She always wanted to kill the Sirens, and her hometown was destroyed by that hurricane.

But the deaths of my parents...

No! Xileina's brother died because of this... She wasn't...

But Mom and Dad... are dead.

Jiang Zhengge's hands were trembling.

Just then, loud laughter came from afar:

"Hahahaha, I knew it was a demigod from the Foundation!" Wu Hao laughed loudly. "Those beasts from the Foundation have really done all sorts of evil things, hahahaha!"

"You can't escape! I already sent the information from inside the escape pod, and your actions will soon be exposed!"

It took Triton a moment to understand what Wu Hao was saying.

“No one will come,” he said calmly. “Those things… I’ve already taken care of them.”

A tentacle slid down, with heads attached to it.

The first one instantly made Wu Hao's pupils widen—

That was Xiao Fang's head, his expression terrified, with two lines of bloody tears streaming from his eyes, making him look extremely horrifying.

"Ah...ah ah..."

Wu Hao clutched his head, shouting in a state of utter despair:

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

.......

The abyss remains, still gazing (Part 4) (Fifth Update)

The moment Wu Hao saw Xiao Fang's head, he broke down.

Just over ten minutes ago, she was hugging him and telling him not to be reckless.

At that time, Wu Hao even lost his temper with her, feeling that she had underestimated him.

died.

She hung there, her expression terrified.

What was she thinking before she died?

"..."
