Chapter 140 No Choice
This is a city swallowed up by the earth. It is buried under hundreds of kilometers of earth and rocks. When I raise my head, there is darkness above my head, and there is no light. .
The buildings made of boulders are thick and dilapidated. Many of them seem to have gone through the years, as if they have stepped out of ancient memories. Complex murals are carved on the outer walls, describing a group of ghouls raising invisible children in the old days. The history of life in this city under the protection of the Japanese rulers.
It’s just that I don’t know what happened in the end. There were only countless unconscious invisible children wandering around in the city. The ghouls have disappeared. On the narrow streets, only strange stone sculptures with different postures are left. Lifelike.
Most of the buildings are intact, and the rooms inside and outside are full of traces of life, overturned seats, dirty dishes, messy bedding, as if one day, the lives of all residents suddenly came to an end. end.
“Bang.”
The wooden door that had been standing for tens of thousands of years seemed to be intact, but it easily turned into ashes all over the sky under the impact. Lin Qi broke through the door with the torch of light in his mouth and rushed out of the stone house, shooting at the side.
The impact of the bullet caused the Invisible Son lingering outside the door to pause for a moment. Taking this opportunity, Miss Valente rushed out closely behind, and she and Lynch missed the Invisible Son. passed and rushed back to the city streets.
There was a crawling sound behind him again, and more than a dozen invisible children huddled together, following the two of them and pouring out of the room.
"Something's wrong. Didn't the mural say that the Invisible Son has no intelligence?"
Lin Qi staggered a few steps and barely managed to stand still, not daring to stop. The light beam of the torch of light quickly scanned the surroundings, the messy room. and the stone sculptures that appeared in the middle of the road from time to time, and hurriedly turned back to take pictures of more and more black figures behind them, and felt that my scalp was numb:
“Why are you chasing us? Is there something about us that attracts them? ?”
"Let's have another bottle, sir." Miss Valente no longer cared about the last name, and looked eagerly at the pursuers behind her, "We are together again."
"Come on "
Lin Qi took out another bottle of acid and threw it over the large group of invisible sons behind him.
The bottle flew a distance of five or six meters, and just as it passed over the large group of monsters, a gunshot rang out.
The folding fan sprayed out flames, and at the same time, it sprayed out large pieces of shotgun. The dense steel balls directly exploded the bottle, and the acid splashed in the air. It was like a drizzle in a small area.
A large white mist immediately rose up, and a group of invisible sons squirmed and collapsed, but the two of them didn't even bother to check their results, they just gasped for air.
Although these invisible sons squirm slowly, due to their huge size, their moving speed is actually not slow. It is comparable to the jogging speed of an ordinary adult man. Moreover, they have no fixed shape and flow on the ground like melted asphalt. There are almost no obstacles that can stop them. As long as there is a small gap, they can get into any room.
The key is that these monsters are like sharks that smell blood. They are attracted by something and are chasing them closely. The two of them cannot get rid of the pursuers. As long as there is a slight delay, A horde of monsters will soon catch up.
The problem is that one of them is pampered and the other is a natural otaku. After running at high intensity for more than ten minutes, his extraordinary body also showed signs of fatigue. At this time, he cleared the nearest pursuers and immediately caught up. Try to rest every second.
There were only a few hundred meters away from the temple's light pillar, but the two of them couldn't run anymore.
"Is there, is there any potion to restore physical strength, aren't you a pharmacist?"
"What you requested may only appear after praying to the gods." Everyone knows that you can't sit down Or lie down, Miss Valente could only press her knees in a very inconspicuous manner, and took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat on her face, "But I discovered a good phenomenon. There are not so many invisible sons in the direction of the temple, and the pursuers are all As long as we keep moving in the direction of the temple, we can avoid a lot of trouble. Will they be afraid of the temple? Mr. Leviv."
"It's possible that it is the temple of the evil god's clone after all, but I'm not sure, but I found a very strange phenomenon here." Lin Qi managed to breathe evenly, turned the torch of light and looked around, always on guard. A strange black shadow suddenly pounced from the darkness, "Do you know what happened after the sacrifices of past generations came in?"
"I don't know, there has never been such a record, and no sacrifice has ever left alive." Wa Miss Lunt frowned and asked in confusion, "Is there any problem?" "Over the past thousands of years, there have been hundreds of sacrifices. There have been at least thousands of sacrifices. They all died here. According to probability, we walked for ten minutes and entered and exited many rooms. We should have seen a few corpses, but along the way, except for a very few corpses of aborigines, we did not see a single corpse of a human sacrifice. to.”
"Eh, yes, why?" Miss Valente was stunned. She had never delved into this question. "There can't be anyone moving the body here. It shouldn't be missing. Could it be that it was eaten by the invisible son?"
“Judging from the corpses of the aboriginal ghouls, the Invisible Sons probably don’t eat corpses.”
“Yeah.”
"Then I don't know. Maybe those people gathered themselves together and buried them. Let's observe again later."
"Don't say such terrible things, Mr. Leviev." Valente The young lady rubbed her arms and glared at him angrily, but her eyes suddenly froze, "Why are you here again? Let's leave quickly."
Before he finished speaking, the howling wind fell from the sky.
As long as you are in an open space in the city, you will encounter invisible beings falling from the dome soil at any time. It is impossible to guard against them. This is how most of the pursuers behind them come, forcing the two of them to keep walking through the building in order to Temporarily escaped air raids.
Lynch's expression also changed slightly at the same time, he cursed secretly, pulled Miss Valente and rushed out to the side, straight towards another building next to him.
Kicking the door open, Lynch raised his hand and fired two shots, his movements skillful and heartbreaking. After the gunfire this time, there was a muffled sound of two bullets hitting the target right in front of me.
"I'll do it."
Miss Valente, who was following behind, immediately stepped forward, pushed away Lynch's body, raised the folding fan and fired a shot at the door.
The shotgun sprayed out of the muzzle and turned into acid that filled the sky. The acid suddenly disappeared out of thin air halfway through the splashing. Then a thick white smoke appeared in the room, and the darkness quickly shrank into a ball.
The wind above them became more and more violent, and the two of them rushed into the room without even waiting for the smoke to dissipate. There was a loud noise behind them, dust filled the sky, and even the house was shaken to the point of collapse.
No, it’s not about falling.
“Go, don’t stop, go to the temple.”
Lynch pushed Miss Valente, and the two of them walked out of the window as quickly as possible. Behind them, the tall and ancient building collapsed and turned into the dust of history.
In the thick smoke and dust, Miss Valente climbed up from Lynch's body and pulled him up with her backhand. The two looked at each other and felt a strange feeling.
If you stop, you will be overtaken, and if you run astray, you will bump into the enemy. It seems that the two of them have no way to go. If they want to avoid being besieged by the invisible son, the only thing left is the temple
As if he had no choice, this made Lin Qi feel more and more uneasy. Why was it as if there was a force guiding him to the temple? Is this really the right choice?
But the temple was already in sight, and there was no reason to look back and fight to the death with the Invisible Son, so Lin Qi could only suppress the uneasiness in his heart.
At least go in and have a look, it’s not the first time.
