Witch, Fireball and the Evil God of Steam-Chapter 906 - 186: Just Call Me Ba Zi_3
"Though Julius is dead, the blessings he brought to this land continue!"
The overseer stood at the front of the line, arrogantly spreading his arms, and shouted, "Haven't you always been curious about the secrets of the Holy Relic? He found the place where the Goddess of Life fell. Her power and bloodline still exist in this land!"
As he spoke, he raised the recently excavated, unpolished Holy Relic Crystal high, "Look, the Goddess is right here, watching us. How is it? Has she even uttered a word of doubt?"
... Huh?
A deathly silence brought the overseer back to his senses.
A hard texture was felt in his palm as he looked around, even the guards accompanying him stared at him in shock.
Why did he say those words just now?
And where did the stirring emotions in his heart come from?
"You—!"
The overseer also noticed a hint of fear in the eyes of the Guard Captain, who raised his right hand, pointing above his head.
Instinctively, the overseer reached toward his head, touching a soft object with a surface coated in a slippery fluid. Trembling, he looked up and saw a blue octopus-like creature removing a tentacle from his head, its densely packed eyes on the tentacles making his scalp crawl.
By the time he snapped back to reality, the seven-eyed woman had somehow appeared before him.
She merely raised her left hand slowly.
It didn't look like an attack; the cold palm touched the overseer's cheek.
Unprecedented fear engulfed him.
"You..."
He couldn't continue speaking; he wanted to scream, but it wasn't due to pain. It was a fear beyond comprehension. He watched in horror as his skin turned transparent, his bones beneath twisting and deforming like living snakes. His five fingers fused, elongated, transforming into pale, insect-like jointed bony spikes.
His vision began to split, his head cracking open like an overripe fruit, squeezing out three asymmetrical, bloodshot eyes, each spinning wildly, reflecting this dissolving world. His uniform was torn apart by the swelling flesh, his spine uncontrollably arching backward, piercing through the skin of his back to form a grim bone bow.
His body's expansion didn't stop there. He vaguely felt something writhing beneath his flesh, ready to burst out at any moment.
Help, help me—!
The overseer thought of the guards behind him, letting his body fall backward. But as he hit the ground, what met his eyes was an even more desperate scene.
All the guards had vanished.
He could only vaguely discern some human outlines from the masses of flesh, forcibly compressed together. Upon those masses of flesh were numerous proliferated growths.
It wasn't just the flesh that was transforming.
The hard rock surfaces began to display grooves resembling brain cortices, slowly undulating like breathing. The pseudo-light moss's glow turned a dark red, resembling blood vessels, casting the entire mine pit as if inside some giant creature. The ground turned soft and elastic, yielding underfoot like stepping on a living creature's organs. The support pillars of the mine twisted and deformed, resembling giant vertebrae, rhythmically pulsating, transporting nutrients to every corner of the mine.
Then, his consciousness connected with all these changing manifestations.
The entire mine was no longer a location; it had become a living, breathing, growing giant organism, and he, along with the transformed guards, were mere insignificant cells within this new body.
All consciousnesses were intermingling.
The lingering fear still echoed, cries reverberating continuously in his ears.
The overseer felt as if he were within a purgatory, more accurately, a scene more terrifying than depicted in the Holy Scripture.
"Who... who are you...?"
A shaky question came from behind Bazatous. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
The miner, whose legs had long gone weak, sat on the ground, curled up into a ball.
"Bazatous."
The seven-eyed woman scrutinized the remaining survivors on the ground. She recalled Ethan's way of interacting with people, "You can call me Ba Zi."
