Chapter 278 - Fuck, I Should Have Seen This Coming!
My body started to change, and my skin became more smooth. There was no pain, but I could feel the gel or whatever it was sunk into my body like water into a dry sponge.
Then my hair fell out, such a strange thing to feel, but I did not really feel it. My eyes were still closed, but I could sense it happening, but I had no idea what was going on.
[That gel is what is doing it, but I don't know how it is doing it, but we are working on it right now. The problem is that literally, everything that we have is offline and not working while this is happening. Open your eyes up so we can see where you are.]
The world turned as I opened my eyes, and suddenly I was standing on a grassy field on a sunny day. My body felt almost weightless but what I was seeing was hard to take in.
My mind was being pulled in every direction, and all I wanted to do was sit down and stare at everything that was around me. The sky made no sense, the pods that had been mentioned looked like clouds on strings, and there was a waterfall of rocks in the center that undulated.
[It looks very similar to the undulating wall you traveled through on Kubrick, but I don't suggest you try that again. Hydrocus only has one supercontinent, but the rest of the world is water and islands like this one or more minor. If you travel through this Gravity Well, you will be a long way away from here.]
'I could always fly back fast.'
[Not fast enough. Hydrocus is very large, and it would take you more than half a day to get back here, and then it would be too late. You come back onto the island would just cause all the monsters to go crazy.]
Well, that was a pain in the ass, but it just meant I would have to be careful here. I was still holding Dani's tentacle, but I had yet to look at her, and to my surprise, she had not complained about the wait.
It was hard to make heads or tails of this girl, but when I turned to look at Dani, I froze.
Where to even start? It was like a tiger-striped girl's body had pushed out of Dani's mouth, and now her tentacles were much longer.
"Have you had enough time to absorb the landscape? I need you to pay full attention right now and not look around at every strange thing that passes you by, alright?" Dani asked, and I just nodded as I examined her body.
"Yeah, whatever you say I shall do, don't worry about that! What happened to you? You look amazing!" I commented, but I was just glared at.
"You aren't one to talk, blue man! You look like some kind of lizard! Now, pay attention. We need to travel to the lowest ring, but there are two dangerous rings that we will have to pass through," Dani scolded and explained to me.
I was confused about what she was scolding me about; I had just given her a compliment! As much as I wanted to ask about it, the rings were more important.
"What are the rings that you are talking about? Also, why does this place feel so big?" I asked.
I knew how big this area should have been, but it felt like I had just stepped onto another world for some reason. The Gravity well should have been much closer than it was, and I should have been able to see both ends of the chamber, but I couldn't.
[You are only one-eighth of an inch tall now. The gel did this, but other things are causing this. The gel that you walked through is only part of what is causing this effect.]
'What do you mean that it is only one part?'
[Other things are causing this effect, and that's why I think that it isn't permanent. I don't know since I can't scan anything, I can't use the information we have from before the systems stopped working.]
This was far more than I thought I was getting myself into, but I was here, and leaving wasn't really an option.
I looked down at my hand, and it was blue with black stripes, just like Dani's. There was nothing for it.
"Okay, I think I am ready to go, but I am at your mercy right now. I will be relying on you to guide me safely because many people are waiting on me. I don't want to have to, but if something is going to put my life at risk, I will have to return to my normal size," I explained to Dani, but she shook her pretty face no.
"I do understand that you need to look out for yourself, but now that you are here, you can't leave until Grixaitalax says you can. I am sorry, but it was my job to make sure you were brought here. Now you are a prisoner like the rest of us," Dani said to me in a solemn tone.
[Fuck, I should have seen this coming!]
I whirled around, but there was nothing but grass behind me. No trace of where we entered from at all.
[There is another problem, and you are not going to be happy about this. All the elementals are gone.]
Fire. I reached for it, but there was nothing, but my body was filled with it as rage took me over. This was more than just some kind of simple trick, and now I had been blocked out from my Shamanic powers.
I turned around with a dangerous look, and my anger piqued as I did, crushing Dani to the ground. My Orgasmoura was gone, and now I was just a monster.
"You had better explain what is going on very fast, or you are going to die.. Then, you are going to point me in the right direction to go deal with this Grixaitalax!" I growled with a dangerous tone as Dani was crushed into the grass by the invisible force of my overwhelming presence.
