The Last Gentleman

Chapter 642

Chapter 642 Communication between Octopus Legs

William wakes up surrounded by octopus tentacles. In reality, he has not even gone into the sea, but is just staying on the shore of the factory swimming pool.

There is no rush to break free from the current shackles, and just have a "friendly communication" with Catherine,

“When did I fall into the dream? Was it when I reached out to touch the sea water and observed it?”

After William asked the question, a cold, pale woman's head slowly emerged from the octopus tentacles wrapped around his body. It was Catherine.

  However, there is no ponytail or makeup, just like a head cut off from a corpse.

“That’s not right~ It was when you were trying to analyze the structure of the swimming pool that you started dreaming the moment you stared at the sea water... It’s really not like you. William, you should be very mean and cautious. Shouldn’t you be fooled so easily?

Furthermore, I can clearly feel that you are very tired today, especially on the physical level. After falling into the dream, there was no struggle and I was completely immersed in it.

Could it be that before coming to my place, I spent a whole day with the sisters and was drained of my life? "

“No, Mr. Rabbit is back~ I was invited to the Rabbit Fairy Castle just as I was about to make an appointment with you. Fortunately, I finished the training given by Mr. Rabbit before the end of the day.”

“No wonder he smells so stinking of sweat, he turns out to be staying with rabbits. It’s so good, he is favored by both the boss and the second-in-command of the circus.”

 Catherine's head seemed to exist independently, sliding freely between the octopus's tentacles, sometimes appearing on William's side, sometimes on the top of his head, and sometimes between his legs.

 “Catherine, what’s the matter with calling me over?”

“Huh? Don’t you want to know me?

And you sent that parasite here, you are really selfish... You know clearly that [Clown House] is so dangerous, but you actually let Nash risk being killed by Art to investigate me. "

"I just asked Nash to investigate you externally. It was his own choice to go to the Clown House."

“Okay, don’t explain...what you’re best at is taking advantage of others, isn’t it? Okay~ let’s not mention that disgusting parasite for now, the thought of his disguised pseudo-human face is disgusting.

The dream just now should have shown you enough information, right?

I didn’t expect you to be kind enough to try to help the sisters.

 The only thing I didn't expect is that you actually saw [Fish Source], which made the subsequent dreams extremely real, so real that you almost died in it. "

 As soon as the words fell,

William felt a tingling sensation in his lower body as an object was being pulled away.

The real purpose of those octopus tentacles floating up and down his body was to **** off the fish scale structure growing on William's body, because this was not Catherine's original intention.

She had no idea that William had actually seen Yuyuan.

This directly led to the "deep connection" between nightmares and memories and the development of an alternative and impossible branch of nightmares. As a result, William, who was already tired and without much defense, was taken advantage of by the fish source created by the nightmare, and fish scales began to grow all over his body.

William didn’t care, he could clean up this level of infection himself.

 What he cares more about are some of the questions contained in what Catherine just said, "Catherine, you can't completely control the nightmare?"

"Let me borrow a description of "nightmares" from a certain book - "Nightmares are not controlled by logic, and if nightmares can be explained, they will lose their original interest."

Nightmares always exist, I just have certain control authority. Sometimes, nightmares will become chaotic and disorderly for some reason, and even I can't force them to stabilize them.

 Speaking of how you saw the source of the fish, can you tell me a little bit about it? "

 Catherine's head fell between her legs, smiling as she waited for the story to begin, and if the story contained fictional elements or dissatisfied her, William would be subject to some kind of physical punishment.

 “That’s probably it.”

William directly elaborated on his experience during the gentleman's examination in the form of a short story, named "The Horror of Lake Town".

The wonderful storyline made Catherine's eyes reveal the innocence she once had, and she was completely fascinated.

Especially when William reached the bottom of the lake in his human body and touched the giant eye, she almost screamed.

“Fish Eyes! This is one of Nazjatar’s favorite experimental creations. There are eyes like this everywhere in the arc sea, monitoring every corner...

 You actually reached out and touched me with your human body. It’s really you~ William! You are so strong, so strong that others are reluctant to hit you. "

William used this topic to directly bring up the thing he was most concerned about, "Katherine, you are also one of the experimental creatures...or the only experimental creature that escaped the deep sea."

These words directly caused Catherine to laugh crazily. Seawater even continued to overflow from the dark mouth, and the tentacles were floating back and forth inside.

“Haha, don’t think I’m as powerful as you~ I’m not the only one who escaped, but a group of people escaped.

 But in the end, only I survived under the protection of the circus, and the others were all captured. "

“So, you decided in private to ‘break out together’?”

 “Nothing is that easy~

The laboratory you saw in your dream is just a scene imagined by your subconscious mind about the "laboratory" combined with the keywords I gave it.

The real undersea laboratory is several times more complicated than that, and it is impossible to escape.

Even if we really escape from the laboratory, as long as we are still within the sea, everything will be controlled by the source of the fish.

 The reason why we were able to escape from the Arc Sea was that the failure of a certain experimental project caused turmoil in the entire deep sea, and the fish source was involved.

The deep-sea earthquake caused serious damage to the laboratory, and the container that held us was also damaged. The sealed door was completely crushed, and a large amount of seawater poured in from the top.

Even so, even if we got rid of all control of the fish source at that time, only 2% of the sisters participated in the escape, and some of the remaining sisters even wanted to stop us.

 The moment they set foot on land, many sisters thought they had escaped from the clutches of the devil and relaxed.

 Only I have been running away, escaping to the farthest corner and living in a small town pretending to be an ordinary sick person. By chance, the circus happened to come to this small town to conduct trial operations and recruit talents. "

“One question, Catherine, since you are an ‘escapee’…where does the deep sea water that fills your current swimming pool come from?”

  “Well~I am a very cautious person~

I have been thinking about escaping from the laboratory and the sea for a long time...I have also been thinking about whether it will have any adverse effects on my body if I leave the sea for a long time.

 When I escaped, I stole a water condensation device in the laboratory. The seawater stored in it was enough to fill the current swimming pool. If I live on land for a long time and become unwell, I can use this sea water to nourish my body.

Unexpectedly, I didn’t feel any discomfort at all, as long as I took a bath every night, it was enough.

I hid this thing deep in the cave behind that town. Not long ago, I suddenly remembered it and took it out.

It’s just that…”

 Catherine paused her words deliberately, her head moved up between William's legs,

It was only when we reached the abdomen that we could see clearly that Catherine had indeed separated her head separately, and the neck was carried by slender octopus legs.

 The head quickly came to William, and his tongue with a suction cup stretched out and licked his chin.

“William, since you chose to help even the unknown girls in your dream, would you like to do me a favor?”

 “What are you busy with?”

“Bring me something back from my ‘home’. Although I can still live a normal life without the help of the deep sea, in some aspects, especially the deepening and development of the “deep sea disease” has become very slow.

 Especially after I completed the route, my desire for the deep sea became even stronger.

 Help me bring back more seawater, and it is a deep seawater source with extremely high pathogenic content. If possible, get some "octopus essence", which can be found in the laboratory. "

 “If you want me to die, just say so…”

“How could I be willing to let you die? Besides, we are still colleagues after all.

  Anyway, this is what I want to talk about when I invite you over tonight. Whether you do it or not is up to you. If you want to go, I can personally take you to the beach and tell you some experience of entering the sea.

 As long as you can help me bring back the ‘specialties from my hometown’, I will be at your disposal from now on.

Even if you let me hide in the cabinet with a camera in advance to record your activities with the sisters, or even your training with Mr. Rabbit, I will definitely cooperate and even participate in it~"
