Skinwalker Belle – Chapter 428 – Work Quietly, No Shooting Allowed!

Lin Fan circled around in the sea a few times.

The underwater terrain was extremely complex, filled with irregular reefs and trenches.

She extended her Mental Strength scan.

The originally wild Mental Strength shrank dramatically in its reach through the water.

Water pressure and density formed a natural damping layer.

“This underwater environment is really troublesome.”

Lin Fan flicked her massive white fish tail and pursed her lips.

Siren’s Voice.

She recalled this innate talent of the Merfolk.

Whales could communicate through low-frequency sound waves across thousands of kilometers.

Sound traveled more than four times faster in water than in air.

She stopped at the edge of a deep-sea cliff.

Opening her mouth, a series of ethereal, melodious syllables flowed from her throat.

“La la la la la I’m Fat Tiger I’m the king of kids”

“La la la la la la la I’m Lei Li~~ I’m the queen of the post-apocalypse”

Siren’s Voice activated.

Invisible sound waves radiated outward from her in concentric ripples, spreading in all directions.

The surrounding seawater pulsed in rhythmic motion.

Within less than two minutes, the water ahead grew turbid.

A colossal squid over a hundred meters long emerged from the darkness.

Eight thick tentacles hung docilely at its sides.

Following it came a school of mutated sperm whales, giant sea turtles covered in thick bony spikes, and swarms of deep-sea anglerfish glowing with faint luminescence.

Their eyes were dazed as they quietly gathered around Lin Fan.

“Obedient toys.”

Lin Fan swept her gaze over them.

She closed her eyes, feeling the feedback of the sound waves.

The sound waves struck the underwater rock formations, seaweed clusters, and Mutated Beasts before refracting back.

In an instant, her mind constructed an immensely vast three-dimensional topographical map.

This detection range was more than ten times larger than the Omniscient Domain.

“Found it.”

Lin Fan opened her eyes.

In an extremely deep trench eighty kilometers away, the sound waves had collided with a massive smooth surface.

A perfect semicircular reflection zone existed there.

The refractive index of the water flow showed a clear anomaly.

That was an energy shield capable of perfectly absorbing and blocking Mental Strength detection.

This explained why her previous Mental Strength scans had yielded nothing.

Lin Fan’s tail fin slammed hard.

A white cavitation bubble burst beneath the water.

Like a white torpedo, she shot toward the depths of the trench.

Behind her, the horde of enchanted mutated sea monsters immediately followed, forming a mighty army of deep-sea leviathans.

Eighty kilometers passed in an instant.

At the bottom of the trench.

A colossal translucent energy shield, covering an area larger than three football fields, was firmly anchored to the bedrock.

Inside the shield, lights blazed brightly.

Metal pipes and intricate structures stood within.

Personnel in white protective suits hurried back and forth through transparent corridors.

The base’s perimeter was lined with massive torpedo launch tubes and arrays of underwater electromagnetic cannons.

Lin Fan stopped a hundred meters from the shield.

“Go, say hello to them.”

Rеaԁ oո КαtReаdіոɡСafе

Lin Fan pointed at the barrier ahead.

The hundred-meter squid and mutated sperm whales behind her immediately charged forward.

Boom.

The underwater base erupted in blinding flashes of light.

Dozens of specially crafted torpedoes streaked out with trails of white bubbles, detonating precisely among the sea monster horde.

The squid’s tentacles slammed violently against the energy shield.

Intense ripples spread across the shield’s surface.

Alarms blared throughout the base.

In the main control room, a lieutenant general in a Federation military uniform stared at the holographic screen.

“Report, sir! We’re under attack by an unknown mutated sea beast swarm! The outer defense system is running at full capacity!”

The operator was drenched in sweat.

The lieutenant general’s face turned ashen. “Impossible. The base’s stealth field has been active the whole time. How could these brainless sea monsters suddenly gather to attack us?”

“Sir… is that a person on the screen?”

The operator pointed to the upper right corner of the display.

The surveillance camera had captured a crystal-clear image.

A figure clad in pure white hovered amidst the raging deep-sea currents.

A streamlined fish tail, an immaculate upper body, white hair drifting with the water’s flow.

The currents around her were eerily still, in a state of absolute calm.

“A mermaid? Creatures like that actually exist in this world?”

The lieutenant general’s eyes widened.

Lin Fan watched the sea beasts get blown to bloody shreds by the torpedoes, utterly indifferent.

They were merely expendable fodder for testing the strength of the energy shield.

She had already deciphered the shield’s operational logic.

A high-density Spirit Energy barrier fused with Blue Star’s high-frequency electromagnetic technology.

“A flashy shell, nothing more.”

Lin Fan flicked her fish tail, and her form vanished from where she was in an instant.

The next second, she appeared directly above the energy shield.

The terrifying force of fifty thousand points of physique converged entirely into her white tail fin.

She used no Special Ability—only pure, raw physical momentum.

She swung down.

Crack.

A piercing shattering sound echoed through the seabed.

The energy shield, touted as capable of withstanding ten thousand tons of water pressure and nuclear blast impacts, burst into a dense web of cracks under Lin Fan’s single strike.

“Alert! Energy shield integrity compromised by over eighty percent! Imminent collapse!”

Red lights flashed frantically in the main control room.

The lieutenant general bellowed: “Release the stitched abomination from Experiment Chamber Two immediately! She must not get in!”

Lin Fan didn’t continue attacking the shield to let the seawater flood the base entirely. Instead, she activated Spiritualization and passed straight through.

She wanted the intact materials inside—if they got washed away by the seawater, it would hardly be worth the effort.

Lin Fan twisted her fish tail and landed lightly in the farthest corner of the base.

The moment her tail touched the metal floor, a flash of white light erupted.

The tail split apart, reforming into long, slender legs.

Still, she remained in her ethereal state, hiding naked in the shadows.

Her instincts told her this haul would be substantial.

Work quietly, and don’t fire a single shot!

————

Underwater base, main control room.

Red alarm lights spun wildly across the ceiling.

The lieutenant general gripped the edge of the metal console with both hands.

Rеaⅾ оո ΚatRеаdіոɡСαfe

The large screen froze on the moment the pure white tail shattered the energy shield.

“Any radar contact?”

The lieutenant general’s words came rapid-fire.

The operator’s hands flew across the keyboard.

“Sir, that high-energy signature has vanished.”

The operator wiped the sweat from his face.

“Sonar arrays are at full power—no movement traces detected. The mutated sea beasts outside have scattered as well.”

The lieutenant general stared at the radar scan on the screen.

Only an expanse of empty green water.

“Gone?”

The lieutenant general released his grip, gasping for air.

“How much damage to the energy shield?”

“Eighty-three percent. Backup power has been routed in, and self-repair is underway.”

An officer nearby looked up at the frozen image of the white-haired mermaid in profile on the screen.

“Absolutely beautiful.”

The officer blurted out.

“To think Blue Star’s oceans could give birth to such a magnificent creature.”

The lieutenant general stared at the empty expanse of deep sea on the screen, wiping the cold sweat from his brow.

“Sir.” The operator turned to look at him. “Should we send out a submersible to search? That’s a creature we’ve never discovered before.”

The Lieutenant General slapped the operator on the back of the head.

“Search my ass! Can’t you see the outer energy shield is about to be shattered by one swipe of her tail?!” the Lieutenant General cursed. “This thing can tear apart mutated sea monsters with its bare hands, and you want to go out there and get yourself killed? Mind your radar, and this stays between us.”

The Lieutenant General straightened his uniform collar.

“I’ll personally report to the Chief at Zero Lab.”
