Chapter 86 Dark City - Thrilling
Afaria camp is located on a high mountain south of Elvin's defense line. This is because there is a Dark City here. The Dark City was originally a gathering place for dark elves. Due to the arrival of the evil dragon in the past, they were violated, causing some creatures to mutate, and the dark elves also died miserably, and even became the living dead. Therefore, with Krent as the leader and Paris's two apprentices as external aid, A. Faria Camp is used to recruit some adventurers to help the people here investigate and protect civilians. The light here seems to be much weaker, but there is still some light, just like it feels like it is going to rain on a cloudy day.
In a remote mountain village dozens of kilometers away from the Dark City, a silver-haired boy, who looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, about 1.65 meters tall, fair-skinned, with slightly melancholy eyes, was talking to the wolf beside him. He was playing, but he didn't know what he was saying. He saw the wolf knocking the boy down. The boy pushed the wolf aside hard, then stood up and said something again. The wolf seemed to be spiritual, and then he narrowed his eyes and sat there. On the ground, he tilted his head and looked at the young man. Suddenly, he became restless. He heard someone shouting: "The monster is coming!" Then he got into the house and took out a knife after a while. When the people on the street heard this, they also ran in. In the room, people gathered together with weapons to wait. It seemed that monsters often appeared here. However, what these people didn't know was that this time it was not an ordinary monster. They saw a group of skeletons attacking. The skeletons were extremely ferocious and had no body parts. A piece of meat, with green eyes glowing with terror, just like ghosts in the underworld. Some are wearing helmets, some are wearing shawls, some are holding sticks, and some are carrying many skulls on their backs, hunched over and facing towards Running here, jumping from time to time, accompanied by stiff roars.
When the people in this village saw the skeletons, they were instantly frightened out of their wits. There were so many that they couldn’t see the edges, and they were very scary. The people in the village didn’t know why there were such creatures, nor did they. Know what drives these skeletons.
Most of the villagers fled for their lives, and only a few were resisting. For a moment, skeletons were like a tide. The leader shouted: "Defend the village to the death!" and then they were submerged in the skeletons.
Seeing that the villagers could not resist, the silver-haired boy fled in all directions, screaming and screaming, but he did not escape death. However, his desire to survive also made him run away immediately. The wolf's eyes showed a fierce look, and when he saw the silver-haired boy going towards Then he ran away and followed the young man to escape. He instantly carried the young man on his back. Seeing that someone could escape so fast, the skeleton army threw the skull with all its strength and hit the young man. , the wolf nimbly dodged the attacks of multiple skulls, but unexpectedly something appeared faintly on the ground in front of it. The young man said something hastily, and the wolf stopped, and one person and one animal observed the situation in front of them, and The skeletons behind are also coming with all their strength, jumping and destroying everything crazily.
And some skeletons actually emerged from the ground in front of them. The young man was shocked and hurriedly used magic to resist. When the wolf saw the young man's movement, it roared, then rushed into the group of skeletons and struck with just one blow. After killing ten skeletons, the skeleton's body fell apart after being beaten, and a stiff roar came out. The boy used light white magic to form a blade, frequently breaking some skeletons, and the speed was extremely fast.
At this time, another figure appeared in the direction of the village, holding two swords. Every time he made a move, a piece of skeleton was knocked away and scattered on the ground. The skeleton that was repelled hit the skeleton behind him and was broken into pieces one after another. He was agile. The extent left these skeletons uncertain. Wherever the silver light shone, there were wreckage everywhere.
As for the young man, although he was very fast, he still seemed unable to fight against these skeletons alone. After a while, he was beaten back again and again, and there were also skeletons in the back. Seeing the girth behind him, the wolf suddenly jumped forward. He jumped up and landed next to the boy. The boy hurriedly turned over and lay on the wolf's back. The wolf jumped up continuously, but fell into the village. The village had become ruins. The wolf attacked several times and knocked away a group of skeletons. The boy looked at it. Go, my relatives are no longer alive, I can't help but scream up to the sky, my eyes are full of tears, and I am heartbroken, but the skeletons don't care about this, and throw some skulls at them one after another. The wolf hurriedly protects it, and is hit on the head, and suddenly feels dizzy. Dazzled, when the skeletons saw this, they rushed over one after another, drowning the man and the beast.
The figure not far away witnessed all this, and without any time to think about it, broke out of the encirclement.
...
At the edge of the village, a girl with a broom floating behind her looked at the scene in shock. Skeleton remains were everywhere, along with the corpses of dark elves. The girl was in a trance, thinking that this was the hometown of the devil. The tragic situation made people frightened: "What on earth happened?"
So she walked forward slowly. Every step she took, she would step on the remains of skeletons, and even make the sound of broken bones. The girl endured it The discomfort in her heart, perhaps because of fear, suddenly caused a bird to chirp, which frightened the young girl into thinking and she hurriedly flew up on the broomstick. She happened to see a wolf lying on the ground not far away, and the girl wondered: Could it be that these skeletons were fighting wolves? So he fell over.
It was then that I discovered that the wolf was protecting a silver-haired boy. He looked fair, but had a lot of dust on his face. His pointed ears reminded the girl of her friends in her hometown: that year, the two of them were practicing magic outside, and a disaster suddenly occurred. When it landed in the village, the shock caused shocked the two of them. They looked towards the village and saw flames shooting into the sky. They hurried back to the village and happened to encounter the unknown creatures slaughtering them. Although the people in the village were fighting desperately, they To no avail, the two of them also used weak magic to attack, but the creature didn't even look at it. At this time, a magician ran over, grabbed their hands and said, "You guys, hurry up. The village can't stay anymore, and neither can the devil." We know when it will be destroyed, and our hope is left to you." After saying that, he made gestures with his hands and recited a short spell. A crack in time and space appeared, and the two of them were pushed in. They wanted to hold it. The magician's hand was so far away. With a wave of the magician's hand, the crack slowly closed. The two watched helplessly as the magician was destroyed, and the crack also closed before the unknown creature came in. I don’t know how long it took, but the girl came back to her senses, her eyes slightly red.
......
"Hey, wake up!" A girl's voice came.
"Hey, are you still alive?" These voices echoed in the young man's mind. He slowly opened his eyes, and the outline of a girl appeared in the haze, but he couldn't see clearly.
The young man tried hard to sit up, but he had no strength at all. As soon as his head left the ground, it fell heavily again. He only felt pain all over his body, but could not move. He heard the girl's words again: "Oh, it's true." The girl sighed: "It looks like he's still alive, please save him!" The boy lost consciousness.
In a room, a ray of sunlight shone on the boy's face. The boy's face was already clean. He felt the direct sunlight and his eyes were extremely uncomfortable. The boy hurriedly grabbed it, but it was because he had not been exposed to the sun for a long time. , and the discomfort caused by it, the quilt had completely covered his head in the panic, which made the young man feel better.
The boy stayed like this for a while, feeling that nothing was wrong, so he slowly opened the quilt, revealing a gap. He looked through the gap, but found nothing. He just saw a table closer to him, with some things on it. Fruit, the boy stretched out his hand to get an apple, then quickly retracted it and ate it gently, as if he was afraid of disturbing anyone.
At this time, the door opened, and the young man remained motionless. He only heard the footsteps getting closer and closer, and then a crashing sound was heard. The young man felt that the room became dark, but he remained motionless.
"Are you... awake?" came a girl's voice. The boy didn't speak, just motionless.
At this time, the quilt was lifted, revealing the boy's head. The boy only glanced at the girl, and covered his head with the quilt again. Seeing this, the girl turned over the quilt again, and then laughed, the boy Looking at the girl at a loss, the girl said: "Are you going to keep holding this apple in your mouth?"
The boy still didn't understand. The girl saw that the boy's eyes were full of doubts, and she knew that she didn't understand her words. . So he sat aside and looked through the books he had brought with him. The young man turned over and continued to eat quietly. However, he did not expect that there was no silencing effect at all, just like covering his ears and stealing the bell.
Not long after, the boy finished eating an apple and wanted to eat more. When he turned around, he saw the girl looking at him. The boy pointed at the fruit. The girl understood, but smiled evilly: "I want to eat it. "Sister, let me listen."
When the boy saw the girl speaking, his expression was strange, even distorted, and he said stiffly: "Sister." The word seemed to use a lot of force, but his hand was Point to the fruit very smoothly.
The girl picked up a banana and handed it over. She smiled and said, "Eat it." When the banana came over, I reached out to pick it up, but stopped again, hesitant.
When the girl saw it, she put it directly into the boy's hand, then smiled and walked out of the room. The boy saw the girl walking out of the room and saw that there was no movement, so he sat up and looked at the room, but there was no decoration. , except for the table and chairs, there was nothing else, so I ate all the fruits and fell asleep again.
