Chapter 182 Betrayal
There was silence in the building.
It’s like there’s really no one there.
Suddenly——
“Mayor!” A voice sounded from the other side. It was so sharp that you couldn’t even tell whether it was a man or a woman. “They are there!”
Jiang Cheng and others immediately looked towards the direction where the sound came from, and found where the loli girl and the tall man were hiding.
The tall man didn't know whether it was intentional or for some reason, but he actually squatted in a smaller stone crevice, which also caused most of his body to be exposed.
I happened to be spotted by the figure standing outside the window.
Not only that, after the tall man was discovered, he actually looked very at a loss. In the end, he stood up in confusion.
Now even the loli girl next to him was exposed.
There were many shadows outside, crowding around the broken window, looking in.
Fortunately, at least he looks human.
The leader is a sturdy man who is about 40 years old. He is as tall and strong as a tall man. He has eye-catching golden curly hair and carries a spear on his back.
After the tall man and the loli girl were discovered, the hiding of Jiang Cheng and the young master became meaningless.
The people outside each have a torch in their hands. Since they already know that there is someone inside, they can't escape as long as they come in and search.
And looking at the size and physique of these people, it would definitely be his side that would suffer in a fight.
Seeing a few more people coming out, the eyes of the blond man headed by them lit up. He immediately explained to everyone that he was the acting mayor of Blackstone Town not far away.
I came here to see the lighthouse light up, so I knew someone must be coming again.
After hearing the word "again", a light flashed in Jiang Cheng's eyes.
The blond man who claimed to be the acting mayor behaved very appropriately. They stood outside the door and had no intention of breaking in due to the large number of people.
Mr. Jiangcheng and others were not prepared to be polite to him, so the two groups started talking through the window.
“What do you mean by the word you just said?” Young Master said, “Have you ever seen people like us?”
“Yes,” the blond man nodded, and then sighed He said in a tone: "But you are unlucky enough to get lost and walk into this place."
The lolita girl interrupted and asked, "What's going on here?"
"Here." The blond man seemed to have thought of something, his expression became very frightened, and then he continued to speak after a few seconds, and his voice was very low. , "In short, this is an ominous place, and everyone who enters here will be cursed."
"What kind of curse?"
Behind the blond man, a strangely dressed man stepped forward. People on both sides moved out of the way with very respectful expressions.
“Being deprived of light and plunged into eternal darkness, you will crawl in the rugged ruins. Groups of vipers will surround you and gnaw at your remains. You will feel the pain. , but you will not die. Your soul will stay in the body forever. Watching it rot, but there is nothing you can do. You can only crawl. Under its throne, praying for forgiveness from it, the betrayers once poured out their blood"
The chant-like tone lingers, like the bards of centuries ago, the weirdly dressed people can't even use it His gender could be distinguished with the naked eye. His whole body was covered in a black robe with strange patterns painted on it.
While Fatty was staring at the patterns, a strange scene happened. He actually saw the patterns move.
They were entangled like snakes, rolling in a ball, and rushing toward themselves.
But just a second before it pounced on his face, everything in front of him disappeared.
The weird man should be a wizard or a priest. What he said was like some kind of prophecy, with a pale and mysterious beauty.
When the weird man finished speaking, both the young man and the loli girl showed thoughtful expressions.
Only Jiang Cheng looked at the mysterious and weird man a few more times, then turned to look at the blond man who claimed to be the acting mayor, and then said with a stiff neck: "Here, translate."
The blond man was stunned for a while, and then he opened his mouth: "I think I have already said it."
The young master interrupted the conversation between the two, first looked at the weird man a few times, and then turned to look at the blond man : "You mean we are the betrayers?"
The blond man nodded, "Yes, anyone who enters this building will be regarded as a betrayer and be cursed."
"Who is betrayed?"
The blond man The man was silent again. It was obvious that he knew the answer, but he didn't dare to say it.
It seems that naming that thing is a blasphemy and brings bad luck to oneself.
"Okay," the young master did not continue this topic, but asked: "Now let's talk about you, where did you come from?"
"Blackstone Town," a person raised his head The young man with the torch replied, "I They are all from Blackstone Town."
Before, Fatty felt that these people spoke strangely. Not only did they sound lame, but they also looked weird.
The next second, His pupils trembled, and he finally discovered the problem.
The words these people say don’t match their mouth shape!
It feels like watching a Mandarin version of a foreign movie.
But the fear and impact it brought to reality were unprecedented. Fatty's subconscious reaction was that these people were not human, but all ghosts.
Or it may be a puppet that is already dead and controlled by ghosts.
He tried to remind the doctor without alerting the other party.
But before his trembling hand could touch the doctor, the latter naturally grabbed his arm and squeezed it gently.
The fat man stopped shaking immediately.
The young master thought for a while and continued: "Then"
"Why is your city floating on the sea? And you can't see it during the day, only at night."
The tall man suddenly spoke. His voice sounded like it had not yet ended its voice-changing period, and it sounded very uncomfortable.
Before he could finish speaking, he was kicked hard on the knee by the loli beside him.
The situation became tense instantly.
There must be something fishy about the city that suddenly appeared, and the people who came were even weirder, but if you question it face to face like this, it might cause trouble.
After all, no one knows whether the people outside are enemies or friends.
Once.
"That's right," the blond man took a long breath, then looked at the people in front of him and said slowly: "Our town is indeed just like what you have seen, floating on the sea, and only at such moments. "Appear," he paused, and continued: "Because we, like you, are the ones cursed by it. "
After the Loli girl ordered the tall man who was following her to shut up, she couldn't help but ask: "Have you ever entered this building?"
As soon as this was said, the blond man, and The faces of those who came with him darkened, and a pair of eyes also darkened with them.
It's hard to describe what kind of state this is, but Fatty can feel the deep feeling of powerlessness and despair from them.
More than ten seconds later, the blond man raised his head and said in a hoarse voice: "We built this building."
The Loli girl looked at her for a moment, "Why?"
"To... survive." I was lying on the bed reading and motionless.
