Tribulation of Mysteries

Chapter 17:

In the dream world.

A consciousness moved quickly above the sea.

For Aaron, this experience of constantly zooming in was no longer novel.

What he was really worried about was the appearance of the strange phenomenon.

"Including the strange phenomenon and broadcast that I saw before, I estimate that there are about five terrifying existences that have already descended on this world. They are all accompanied by the world-wide broadcast. Or should I say, they influenced and polluted?"

Aaron was not even sure if they could discover him.

At this time, he could not help but have more worries in his heart.

He collected his thoughts and divided the mysterious energy produced by the dream into three parts. One to strengthen himself, one to travel, and one to store.

Originally, Aaron thought that everything would be the same as before. He would pass his days in boredom.

But today, the situation was slightly different.

In front of his eyes, a black line suddenly jumped from the sea.

Aaron was stunned. He almost couldn't believe it, or he thought he was hallucinating.

But after waiting for a while, the black line was still there!

"It's land!"

Aaron's consciousness was almost boiling. "Finally … land!"

He couldn't wait to step forward. The black line continued to expand and turned into a coastline. Gradually, more outlines appeared.

What was in front of him was not a continent, but a small island.

On the island, the pale forest seemed to have undergone some kind of mutation. It was like a palm reaching towards the sky.

In the shadows, there were strange creatures moving about.

"It seems like … the creatures on land have also been affected by the scarlet sun?"

Aaron pondered and circled around the island. He found that it was not big, only a few dozen square kilometers.

However, the encouragement it brought was still no small matter.

At the very least, this was the first piece of land he had encountered.

"Perhaps … the real continental shelf is not far away …"

…

Although he was encouraging himself, Aaron only discovered the real continent after more than 20 days.

The coastline stretched as far as the eye could see, and its depth was unknown.

"Finally … I'm finally ashore!"Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.𝘤𝑜𝓂 for the best novel reading experience

Aaron was moved. After sixteen years in the sea, he finally set foot on the real continent!

Not far away, he even saw a port.

Behind the port, there were a large number of buildings, stone roads, and tall towers … together, they formed a city!

"Today must be my lucky day!"

Aaron boarded the port and saw stranded sailboats. Some of them had traces of fighting, and dried blood was everywhere.

On the port, it was also a mess … There was even a large ship that was cut in half, stranded not far away. It was as if … it was directly cut in half by some deep sea monster …

"The monsters in the sea … have boarded the port?"

Aaron Sotos's heart was heavy.

If he did not change the sun, perhaps this would still be a bustling port and would not be abandoned.

He walked along the stone road until he reached the center of the city.

Many human corpses were casually thrown on the side of the road. They had been weathered into white bones, and there were traces of gnawing on them.

"Seems like it's not just the sea. Everything on the continent has also been polluted?"

Aaron muttered to himself. Suddenly, his perception was triggered, and he looked forward.

At the corner, there was a silently standing figure, like a stone statue.

Suddenly!

The figure moved slowly, walking toward Aaron.

Tap tap!

The hooked feet landed on the stone road, making a crisp sound, leaving behind a line of filthy blood.

As the figure approached, Aaron felt as if his heart had been hit by a hammer.

He saw …

A humanoid monster with a body full of keratinized skin and no skin on its face!

There were still remnants of clothes on the monster, as if it was transformed from a human of this world!

It had no eyelids, and its huge eyes stared straight at Aaron. One of its arms had completely mutated, turning into an octopus-like tentacle.

One step, two steps …

The monster kept approaching, and then … passed through Aaron's body …

"Even a mutated monster can't touch me?"

Aaron looked at the two sides of the street. There were strange symbols on some of the shops, which should be the language of this world. However, he did not recognize any of them.

"Although with [Extraordinary Memory], I will definitely learn very quickly, but there has to be someone to teach me …"

Aaron suddenly felt a bone-piercing fear. "Could it be … that all the intelligent creatures in this world have gone mad?"

At this moment, the monster changed its direction and charged straight into a building.

Its huge mutated bat-like ears kept shaking, as if it was listening to some sound.

"No, that's not right. It didn't sense me, but other prey?"

Aaron suddenly thought of something, and quickly passed through the wall and entered the building.

This seemed to be a bakery. Many shelves had fallen to the ground, and a dried corpse was hanging in the air, swaying with the breeze from time to time.

Aaron relied on the Wall-Passing Technique to look around, but he did not discover anything.

The monster was the same. It stood on the floor and stopped moving.

Suddenly … Aaron thought of something, and burrowed into the ground.

There was a secret passageway under the floor!

In the passageway, a brown-haired boy wearing a shirt and jeans with a dark face was covering the mouth of another girl. They were like two worms, wriggling continuously in the passageway.

The girl's hand was tightly clutching a piece of black bread …
