Shrouded Seascape-Chapter 1096. Wave
Chapter 1096. Wave
Upon hearing the Anomaly's words, Anna turned around swiftly, and her green flames manifested around her, protecting her.
"Wow!! I-Is that magic? That's so cool!" The chubby man was frightened and retreated a few steps, looking at Anna in surprise.
"Wow!! I-Is that magic? That's so cool!"
"Wow!! I-Is that magic? That's so cool!"
"Wow!! I-Is that magic? That's so cool!"
"Wow!! I-Is that magic? That's so cool!"
The words echoed not from the chubby man but from behind him. The voices varied in pitch but had the same tone.
Moments later, two pairs of feet wearing shiny leather shoes stepped into the corridor, followed by a pair of feet wearing high heels and stockings, and a pair of feet wearing comfortable hemp shoes made for the elderly.
Two middle-aged men, a woman, and an old man walked out at the same time. The four of them walked up to the chubby man and asked in the same awkward manner.
"So, what's your name?"
"So, what's your name?"
"So, what's your name?"
"So, what's your name?"
"So, what's your name?"
Anna realized that something was amiss. A chill ran down the back of her neck as she observed their bizarre behavior.
Anna turned around quickly; she had no intention of paying any attention to the chubby man. As she made her way to the deck, however, someone blocked her way. It was the woman whom Anna had just strangled to death.
Her purple face reflected a tinge of awkwardness as she rubbed her hands together and asked, "Don't worry, I won't pester you for long. You just need to tell me your name. I only want your name."
The speaker wasn't just the woman before Anna, as the five people behind Anna spoke at the same time as well.
A collective consciousness like the Moth? Or something else? Anna's green flames manifested, engulfing the woman before her and the five people behind her. In just a few moments, only six piles of ashes remained in the corridor.
Realizing that they could be killed, Anna sighed in relief and rushed toward the deck.
Was that the so-called particularly dangerous Anomaly that he mentioned just a while ago? Just when did they release it? Anna pondered.
Anna shoved open the door leading to the deck, and she was welcomed by the ship's crew staring intently at her. For some reason, Anna could see a hint of that chubby man's lecherousness and awkwardness in their expressions.
Just then, their faces contorted into extreme sadness as they all cried out, "How come no girl has ever liked me?! Do I really have to live alone for the rest of my life?"
"Scram!" Anna exclaimed. Clusters of green flames manifested and linked with each other in midair before engulfing everyone in the blink of an eye. However, more people walked out of the nearby doors.
Instead of attacking Anna, they were all crying out at the same time.
The green flames vanished gradually amidst their cries, and in the end, Anna lost all intention of leaving the ship. A tear dropped down the corner of her eye as she threw her head back and roared, "How come no girl has ever liked me?!"
Anna instantly sealed her sea of consciousness. At the moment, she only had one single thought—Damn it, it's a personality plague! How come something like that exists on the surface world?!"
Meanwhile, Gao Zhiming was nervously guarding the door of one of the luxury cruise ship's cabins. His guard was up, wary of any intruders.
"Ease up. It's all going to be okay," Tobba said, cradled tenderly within Li Lu's arms.
"Thank you, but are you sure we don't have to go out and help them?" Gao Zhiming asked. Staying here and being protected by his big sister was definitely not what he wanted.
"They can handle the chaos up there. Besides, you're overestimating yourself, kid. It has only been a few days since you started learning how to handle a gun, and you already think that you're capable enough to go up there and fight?
"Who do you think you are? Rambo's reincarnation or something? If you go out there, you're only going to drag them down; that's it," Tobba said disdainfully.
The dissatisfied Gao Zhiming was about to retort when Roy's voice echoed from Li Lu's earpiece. "It's clean. You can go out now."
There were mutilated corpses all over the destroyed deck, creating a sight so miserable and desperate that perhaps one couldn't find a similar sight on a battlefront.
If one were on a battlefront and were on the losing side, one could still retreat, but this battlefield was different. It was surrounded by water on all sides. One would either have to win or die; there were no other choices.
"Where's Sis?" Gao Zhiming asked nervously. He immediately searched for Anna before anything else.
"She went to that ship over there. Look, she's smiling on the deck. I'm sure she has already defeated the people over there."
Upon hearing that, Gao Zhiming rushed to the side of the ship and waved excitedly at Anna in the distance.
Anna responded and waved at Gao Zhiming as well.
However, Gao Zhiming noticed that something was wrong while Anna was waving at him. Why were the others on that ship waving along with his big sister? And they were also waving in a suspiciously uniform way.
Gao Zhiming carefully observed Anna and the others. Then, he realized that they were all making the same movements as Anna. Gao Zhiming rushed to the clown and exclaimed, "That's not my big sister! Big Sister is in danger!!"
Gao Zhiming's words attracted the attention of everyone else. They turned to the distant warship and saw that everyone there was performing the same movements at the same time.
A crew member took a closer look using a telescope.
"There are even dead people among that crowd!" the frightened crew member exclaimed, "We have to get out of here now! Everyone on that ship has turned into monsters!"

Anna had killed quite a few people on the warship, and those murdered by her were all doing the same movements as her with their mutilated bodies, creating a terrifying sight.
Everyone reeled in terror at the scene. The terrifying sight—coupled with the fact that they had just survived an ambush—made the crew move quickly, turning the ship back on its original route under the employer's order.
"Wait, Big Sis is still out there! We need to go rescue her!" Gao Zhiming roared, looking agitated, but no one listened to him.
As the seconds went on, the distant warship became even farther and farther away.
The desperate Gao Zhiming took out the gun from his waist and pointed it at the people before him. "Stop the ship!!"
The surviving bodyguards drew their guns and pointed them at Gao Zhiming. "Kid, put that gun down. It's not a toy. Put it down, or you better not blame us for being rude."
"Oh? Are you not going to be rude to us as well?" Jackal asked with a cold smile. He was standing behind Gao Zhiming with the others next to him.
The employer's face became ugly at the sight. The recent battle had just proven the other side's strength, and had it not been for them, he would have died from the ambush.
"He says that as long as you agree to leave now, the commission will be multiplied by ten," the female interpreter said to Gao Zhiming and the others.
"No way! We have to go back now! My big sister is still on that ship!" Gao Zhiming exclaimed.
"No, we don't have to go over there," a crew member said. Then, he pointed at the warship. "See? They're coming."
Everyone turned at once and found that the warship was moving toward them at a speed much faster than the luxury cruise.
