Pirate's Grim Reaper System

Chapter 85
biting.

This was Hayden's first feeling after entering this pool of stagnant water.

Even though he had already developed a body capable of resisting the low temperature of minus [-] or [-] with Sode Shirayuki's ability, at this moment he could still feel the chill spreading through his body as if it penetrated into the marrow of his bones.

The opened eyes could not see anything in the water, it was pitch black.Similarly, in his spiritual pressure perception, he couldn't perceive anything in the surrounding water.

It seems that this pool of stagnant water is just like its meaning, there is nothing and nothing abnormal, it is just a slightly larger puddle, because it is located at too high a height, and there are no living things.

but.

Feeling Hayden's whole body soaked in the icy cold water, he still had an inexplicable feeling in his heart that couldn't be controlled and kept swaying back and forth in his mind.

That is, at this moment, Hayden has a guess in his heart that is unbelievable to say the least, but he can't dispel it no matter what—it seems that he jumped into another dimension after jumping into the water.

This bottomless pool of water seems to extend into a boundless vast space, a space that belongs to "it".

At this moment, Hayden discovered something in horror.

The surface of the water with a little light shining from above his head disappeared without a trace when he was not paying attention.

Subconsciously, Hayden wanted to open his mouth to make a sound, but what he got was a large mouthful of cold pool water poured into his mouth, tasteless and at a loss what to do.

Hayden began to paddle his hands and feet vigorously.

He didn't know in which direction he had to swim in order to escape this space, but he only knew that he had to use all his strength.

With a strong body combined with superhuman physical skills, Hayden's current speed in the water can even compare to the speed of a torpedo in the water. With a burst of white bubbles behind his feet, he draws long and continuous strokes in the water. trace.

however.

Hayden still didn't find any sign of the original water surface, as if he had been spinning in circles.Although his rapidly decreasing physical strength told him at this time, the fact was obviously not what he thought.

At this time, the remaining oxygen in his lungs was also consumed by strenuous activities. Even though he had held his breath in the water for several times longer than normal, he still couldn't stand the consumption.

Then, a thought of despair rose in Hayden's heart.

The oxygen will soon be exhausted, and the environment where he can't even see his fingers clearly will allow him to find the water surface in the next second.

I... I might die here...

The decrease in oxygen caused Hayden's consciousness to appear a little trance, and his strength began to gradually decrease. He couldn't help but stop swimming.

Who would have imagined that he would die on the battlefield not because he encountered a powerful enemy, but because he was stupid and was suffocated to death in this bloody place!
No one knows, and no one would think.When they find me, they'll write "Navy Recruit, Accidental Drowning by Falling Overboard" on my tombstone.

Hayden thought with a bit of self-deprecation that he thought he would become the number one man in the world in the future, but he was strangled to death by his own hands halfway.

Images of the past flashed through his mind.

A picture of the good, the hard, the world of the past.He also saw a blurry picture, a little girl and a giant?Fragments of fighting together.

When Hayden wanted to take a closer look at who the person in the picture was, he found that he couldn't knock off the layer covering the picture, as if it was blocked by a thin ice wall and couldn't be touched.

At this moment, all the pictures in my mind slowly faded away, and disappeared bit by bit.

At this moment, Hayden couldn't use any strength on his body, and he couldn't even blink his eyelids. He could only watch his body slowly sinking to the bottom of the water.

Feeling the pressure of the water on every part of his skin, Hayden felt that he was not in the water at the moment, but was being squeezed down by something in a solidified liquid.

The last thin thread that maintains consciousness has been pulled and is about to break.

Hayden gave up struggling, and let the ice water invade his body, occupying every inch and every place in his body, turning him into something that didn't belong to him.

Boom!

A thunderous sound suddenly came from above Hayden's head.

Auditory hallucinations?

Hayden forcibly controlled his head and looked up.

It was the only ray of light in the boundless darkness, like suddenly seeing the lighthouse by the port in the sea blocked by a storm.

The sudden appearance of light immediately raised hope in Hayden's heart, which was the kind of hope that had never been so strong.

A trace of power came from his weak body, and Hayden used his last weak strength to paddle his feet and swim towards the place where the light was.

Then, Hayden emerged from the water, inhaling a taste of oxygen that he hadn't experienced in a thousand years.

"Ah~~~"

Taking a big gulp of fresh air, Hayden shook his head vigorously to shake off the ice water on his head.

At this moment, he didn't have any extra thoughts, he just felt a sense of relief all over his body, and he could finally breathe again.

Then Hayden wiped off the ice water from his face and opened his eyes.

However, the sight in front of him made him lose his mind again.

Dakong was roaring.

The clouds are churning.

Looking back and forth in the water, he saw some kind of white things densely piled up in front of him, just like the garbage mountain he had seen, but it was replaced by this white unknown thing.

In the black rolling clouds, red lightning flashed from time to time, accompanied by a deafening thunder chorus.

This is obviously not the place where he dived before!

With a puzzled expression, Hayden paddled the water with both hands, and slowly swam to the shore of the white thing.

When you took a closer look, he suddenly found that the ground made of white things in front turned out to be groups of white bones.

Empty eye sockets, pale teeth, and the rest of the bones.Although he didn't know what the bones of the human body looked like, he knew very well that these were all human bones.

Hayden didn't know how to react to this thing.

With his expression unchanged, his right hand rested on a thorny milky white skull, and then his left hand rested on a large bone at an unknown location, and he climbed up the bone coast with both hands.

At this time, a drop of rain hit his head, and Hayden couldn't help but look up to the sky.Drops of rain fell slowly amidst lightning and thunder.

Hayden looked around, and found that except for the pool behind him that he had just climbed out of, the rest of the place was covered with white bones without exception, and he couldn't even see any other substances.

No dirt, no plants, and certainly no life.

Looking at the White Bone Mountain not far ahead, which is slightly shorter than the other White Bone Mountains, Hayden walked over. He wanted to climb up and stand on a high place to have a look.

Using both hands and feet, even though there are countless tiny spikes on the seemingly smooth white bones, this can't stop Hayden from wanting to climb to the top of the mountain.

Finally, his eyes were at the same level as the highest point of the Bone Mountain, and then Hayden stretched out his neck a little, and looked behind the Bone Mountain.

Swish!
A red lightning flashed across the sky.

In Hayden's line of sight, a humanoid creature appeared on a small flat ground not far behind the Bone Mountain.

As for why Hayden used the biological description——

A humanoid creature about two meters tall, its whole body is basically covered with bone-like things. Its relatively slender body has a pair of huge bone wings on its back even if it is folded behind.

It looks like it is wearing a helmet on its head, with a pair of terrifying half-moon-shaped white horns.

It stood on the pile of bones, with its head down, as if it was standing and sleeping, without any slight movement.

Hayden couldn't help holding his breath.

He was truly frightened by the indescribable aura of it, and the hands holding the bones trembled uncontrollably, and then a bone in his hand became loose.

With a crash, a few white bones on the top of the mountain rolled down from the mountain with a sound.

"I rely on!"

The soft-handed Hayden just realized that he wanted to catch the falling bones.

However, the unknown creature not far away seemed to perceive something.

"Fuck!" Hayden cursed secretly, he sensed the rapid approach of the breath, and hurriedly turned his head to look in the direction where the breath was approaching.

The hole in the left chest and the blood and tears flowing from the eyeholes of the completely covered white skull to the waist.

This was the last scene Hayden saw before he lost consciousness...
