Chapter 113 - 114: Tunnel 7

Arabian Sea — Midnight

Storm waves crashed violently against the black ocean.

Lightning tore across the sky.

And beneath the surface—

the team descended into darkness.

💥 The Submarine Entry

A stealth submarine moved silently underwater.

No lights outside.

Only deep ocean pressure surrounding them endlessly.

Inside—

everyone looked tense.

Even Rahul stopped joking for once.

Which honestly terrified people more.

😨 The Feeling of Tunnel 7

Ananya stood near the navigation screens quietly.

Eyes fixed on the underwater map.

👉 "Tunnel 7 was abandoned decades ago."

Veer frowned.

"Why?"

Silence.

Then Ananya answered softly—

👉 "Because something went wrong during construction."

Nobody liked that answer.

At all.

😂 Rahul Immediately Regrets Everything

Rahul slowly turned toward Aryan.

👉 "…See?"

A pause.

👉 "Every rich secret project eventually becomes horror content."

Aryan nodded seriously.

👉 "We are literally entering haunted billionaire plumbing."

Even Sangita laughed softly despite the tension.

❤️ Quiet Romantic Moment

Sumit sat beside Sangita silently while the submarine descended deeper.

Ocean shadows moving outside the glass.

Sangita noticed his hand shaking slightly.

Very slightly.

Without saying anything—

she quietly held it.

No dramatic speech.

No promises.

Just presence.

And somehow—

that calmed him more than strategy ever could.

💥 Arrival at Tunnel 7

WARNING SIRENS echoed suddenly.

⚠️ DEPTH LIMIT APPROACHING

⚠️ STRUCTURAL INSTABILITY DETECTED

The submarine slowed near a massive underwater entrance hidden inside the ocean floor.

Tunnel 7.

Dark.

Broken.

Ancient steel gates partially destroyed.

And somehow—

it looked less like an entrance…

and more like something trying to stay sealed.

😈 Aisha Notices Something Wrong

Aisha scanned the tunnel carefully.

Then froze.

"…There's movement inside."

Everyone looked instantly.

Thermal scans flickered strangely.

Multiple heat signatures.

But distorted.

Unstable.

Veer frowned.

"That's not normal human movement."

Rahul whispered—

👉 "Please say dolphins."

Nobody answered.

Which made it worse.

💥 Entering the Tunnel

The team finally entered through the damaged access corridor.

Weapons ready.

Flashlights cutting through darkness.

Water dripping everywhere.

The tunnel felt abandoned for years.

Rust.

Broken wires.

Flooded sections.

Yet somehow—

parts of the systems still worked.

Dim emergency lights flickered occasionally.

Like the tunnel itself was barely alive.

😨 Strange Sounds

Then—

they heard it.

Metal scraping somewhere deep ahead.

Slow.

Uneven.

Everyone stopped instantly.

Arjun whispered—

"Probably damaged machinery."

Then the sound came again.

Closer this time.

Not machinery.

Footsteps.

💔 Ananya Reveals Another Secret

Sumit looked toward his mother sharply.

👉 "What happened here?"

Ananya stayed silent briefly.

Then finally answered:

👉 "Elysium tested experimental human enhancement programs during construction."

Silence exploded.

Rahul blinked slowly.

👉 "…You people really skipped therapy and chose crimes."

No one corrected him.

😈 The Failed Subjects

Ananya's voice lowered.

Almost guilty.

👉 "Workers exposed to unstable neural technology began changing."

A pause.

👉 "Aggression."

👉 "Loss of identity."

👉 "Violent psychosis."

Veer's face darkened instantly.

"…They became test subjects."

Ananya didn't answer.

Which was answer enough.

💥 Horror Begins

Suddenly—

one flashlight died.

Then another.

Darkness swallowed half the corridor.

Something moved rapidly above them.

On the ceiling.

Riya fired instantly—

BANG!

The figure disappeared again unnaturally fast.

Rahul immediately hid behind Aisha.

👉 "I officially resign from underwater horror missions."

Aisha rolled her eyes.

👉 "Denied."

😨 First Contact

Then—

they finally saw one clearly.

A human figure standing at the end of the corridor.

Thin.

Twisted posture.

Pale skin.

Mechanical implants partially fused into flesh.

And its eyes—

glowed faint red.

The thing tilted its head unnaturally toward them.

Then smiled.

Too wide.

Too wrong.

Sangita whispered softly—

"…Oh God."

💥 It Speaks

The creature suddenly spoke in a broken distorted voice:

"WELCOME… HOME…"

Then dozens of red eyes opened in the darkness behind it.

Everyone froze.

Because they weren't alone in Tunnel 7.

Not even close.

🔥 FINAL LINE

Deep beneath the ocean—

Elysium's forgotten experiments still lived.

Broken humans became monsters.

And now—

Sumit Roy's team stood trapped inside the darkness Adrian Cross left behind years ago. 👑🌊😈
