Chapter 13: Get in the car quickly, there is no time to explain
The town is burning with fire, billowing black smoke is rising, and the sacrificial ceremony is going on. Even if you are not there, you can still imagine the bloody massacre going on.
"Damn it, the sacrifice has already begun."
Veronica gritted her silver teeth and shouted at the slide: "The Death Walker is in the town. We have missed him. You two quickly find an exit and climb up. I will rush over to rescue them first and leave the car to you."
After saying that, Veronica took a deep breath, clenched her fists and punched forward.
With a loud rumbling sound, gravel and powder exploded in all directions. Amid the dust, a large hole was torn out of an outer wall of the castle.
Veronica jumped up with Monica in her arms and fell five meters high, splashing a large amount of muddy water when she landed.
Wind arose beneath her feet and she rushed toward the small town of Kafuno at extremely fast speeds. After a few breaths, her figure was covered by the oak forest.
High in the sky, the moon seemed to have descended some distance again, becoming even larger than before. A tinge of orange-red appeared on the pitted surface, as if firelight was dancing wildly.
————
At the bottom of the slide, Wayne sat up with his hands on his hard muscles. When he fell, he hit the wall and his head was buzzing.
Lights lit up on both sides of the passage, guiding them all the way to the corner at the end of the passage.
Wayne found himself sitting on William, who was lying on his back, and he could still see the shyness on William's face from his height.
You blush like a bubble teapot!
Wayne's scalp was numb from the show, he cursed and stood up, closed his eyes and thought about Veronica's figure and face, finally dispelling the psychological shadow that William had brought to him.
Before Wayne could turn around and climb up, he heard Veronica's voice. He was still a little confused and couldn't hear what the other person said. He only knew that there was a loud bang and the slide was blocked.
Wayne tried it twice, but the inclined slide was difficult to use. Every time he tried to push the stone away, it would slide down due to the reaction force.
He said to William angrily: "What are you doing standing still? Help!"
William nodded repeatedly and stood behind Wayne, ready to push his butt. Seeing Wayne's gloomy face, he scratched his head honestly: "If you feel embarrassed, I can be in front and you can push me."
Please use some common sense. Can I push you, a golden retriever weighing more than 200 pounds?
No, you scheming 1, don’t even think about touching my hand with your butt!
Wayne gave up the idea of returning the same way and frowned: "William, I didn't hear what Veronica just said clearly. Did you hear it?"
"She said that the sacrifices have already begun and that the Death Walker is in the town. She will go first and let us get there quickly."
William took a deep breath: "Wayne, you need to be mentally prepared. It's important to save people. I'm afraid we won't be able to break the curse this time."
Wayne nodded, things should be prioritized, as they should be, and then complained: "I know she is eager to save people, but saving the two of us will not waste much time. Now it's better, I can only bite the bullet and move forward. ”
"It doesn't matter, we raided Death Walker's lair in case he has other plans." William is not worried about Veronica. The dragon blood descendant has strong physical output. As long as Veronica is willing, she can turn Death Walker into a photo in person. .
On the contrary, capturing alive is more troublesome.
"That's true, but I..."
Wayne hesitated to speak. If this was a horror movie, splitting up would be a big no-no.
"With my protection, you will be fine." William patted his chest and sculpted a toned figure.
Wayne's face turned darker. It was late at night and the castle was empty, so it was useless for him to scream.
He picked up the gravel on the ground, threw it forward to ask for directions, tried several times to confirm that the mechanism was not triggered, and persuaded William to walk in front.
"Veronica said, Death Walker is in the town, we are safe..."
William muttered, taking a step forward to explore. Wayne was too cautious, causing him to panic a little when he followed.
"You can't go wrong with being careful."
Wayne warned that there was no abnormality from the supernatural induction, indicating that the castle was safe, at least for now.
The two walked along the torch road. After several turns, Wayne smelled the smell of wine. He waved to William, and the two walked into the bunker warehouse to look for someone who could take advantage of him.
Perhaps there was only one warehouse inside the castle, where wine and some daily necessities were piled together. Wayne did not find the crowbar, but William only found a flashlight.
Not much use, they have flashlights on them.
The good news is that Wayne filtered the smell in the air and confirmed that there was only one living person in the castle besides them. The grave sweeper was Mike, who returned to the small town of Kafuno every year.
"Why does this guy come back every year just to visit his grave?"
Wayne muttered to himself, guided by the smell in the air, and soon found the exit from the passage.
The mechanism activated the stone door, and the two came to the platform high up in the castle. It was very square and wide, facing the castle gate. It was obviously built with military use in mind.
At night, there are no stars, and the giant moon overlooks the earth, making everyone who looks up feel depressed.
The weeds in the center of the platform were cleared away, and an inverted triangle symbol was outlined in black ink. Puffs of black smoke swirled around, twisting into black arms that swayed in disorder in mid-air.
The arms were of different sizes, including adults and children, men and women, and their palms, large and small, stretched out toward the sky, as if they were trying to pull the moon down.
The terrible scene made Wayne feel angry, and his desire for destruction was gradually amplified, slowly wearing away his calm rationality. The speed was very slow, but it had already caused him discomfort. William already had the same feeling. He narrowed his eyes slightly, and a dazzling light exploded in his eyes. Under the influence of magic, the brilliance of the sun spread all over the platform.
His whole body was bathed in light, and his strong body and determined expression made him look invincible.
But Wayne sensed something was wrong. At the moment William broke up the death ritual, the supernatural induction that had not been active for a long time issued a strong warning.
A black arm emerged from the black mist and turned into a dark monster.
human form.
The body surface is like a black poisonous snake entangled and swimming, twisting everywhere. At the eyes and mouth, the gray cavity spirals downward like a bottomless pit.
This monster is a head taller than William, has no neck, and its torso and limbs are as thick as a strong man one second, and as slender as branches the next, with no stable body shape.
William had turned into a small light man at this moment, with white steam rising from his body, and the billowing heat waves oppressed the black monster and kept wailing.
Without the entanglement of fighting for 300 rounds, William smashed the monster into pieces with one punch, then raised a ball of light with both hands and pushed it straight towards the twisting tentacles.
The black tentacles swarmed down and enveloped William completely.
Like butter meeting a hot knife, the screams came one after another, making the eardrums sting and the gums sore. Wayne, the nearest man, was in a trance, dizzy and almost unsteady on his feet.
When he came back to his senses, the ringing in his ears was still there, his stomach was churning, and he lowered his head, but nothing came out.
Light defeated darkness, and William successfully interrupted the ceremony. The light on his body weakened rapidly. He threw out the can in his pocket and used the last bit of magic power to activate the props. The wildly growing green plants drowned the inverted triangle symbol, eliminating the possibility of restarting the ceremony.
The magic props were made by Veronica. Although William cannot use the power of the goddess of nature, due to the alliance between the three goddesses, his magic power can inspire the magic props made by the natural cultists.
The rapidly growing vines took root in the masonry ground and opened up a towering bulge. William's magic power was exhausted and his energy was also depleted. His feet slipped and he fell down.
Bang!
"Wayne, you are so heartless, I thought you would catch me." William said aggrievedly.
"What are you thinking about? You don't even look at how much you weigh!" Wayne said he was helpless. He wanted to, but he was afraid of being smashed to death.
He stepped forward to help William up, and the two of them walked along the stone steps of the castle to the garden. In the distance, they saw a shadow floating over the tombstone.
Wayne knew that the other party couldn't hurt him, but he was still a little frightened when he passed by.
What if she suddenly scares me?
William answered this question and yelled at the ghost as he passed by, scaring the coward Ah Piao into retreating underground.
Take advantage of ghosts when they are not prepared and scare them!
Wayne said he had learned it and would try it next time. William said proudly: "Look at how well they have been spoiled. I was afraid of alerting the Death Walker before. Otherwise, how could my majestic followers of the Sun Goddess be beaten by a few of them?" The ghost was terrified."
No need to explain, there is no shame in being afraid of ghosts.
William's words made sense, but Wayne saw the most real version of them. The magician could easily destroy Ah Piao, and the magician was afraid of Ah Piao. There was no conflict between the two concepts.
The two left the manor one step at a time and walked through the mud to find the blue car. Wayne started the vehicle, turned on the headlights and headed straight for the small town of Kafuno.
The fire was still spreading, but the thief God didn't show any dignity and stopped the heavy rain.
This time, there was no need to worry about alerting the enemy. Wayne rounded the corner at the fastest speed, and his tires skidded and floated a distance, scaring William into screaming.
Soon, the blue car stopped in front of the town. Wayne's heart was beating wildly, and the supernatural sense sounded an alarm like never before.
Danger!
Deadly danger is everywhere!
"Wait a minute, something is wrong..."
Wayne called out to William who was rushing forward. He took a deep breath of the air and said with his scalp numbing: "We are late, there is no smell of living people here, it is all the smell of corruption..."
It was so corrupt that it seemed like it had been dead for a long time and had just been dug up.
"Why didn't I smell it?" William didn't know why.
At this moment, a figure rushed toward the two of them. It was Veronica. Behind him was a town burning in flames, as well as shadows with twisted limbs and stiff and weird movements.
Veronica's face was covered with dust. She asked Wayne and William to get in the car quickly, got into the driver's seat, started the car and left.
"Wait a minute, where is Monica?" William asked hurriedly.
"Stop talking nonsense, get in the car quickly, there is no time to explain."
Veronica urged anxiously, but William's expression became more and more indifferent. He violently opened the driver's door, opened a circle of faint light with his fist, and hit Veronica hard on the face.
With just a click, Veronica's neck was broken, and half of her face was shattered. Under the fresh skin were dry and contracted black-gray muscles and yellow and brittle bones.
"Veronica will never abandon Monica. Don't even try to lie to me."
William dragged the counterfeiter out of the car, and Wayne took out crowbars from the trunk, one for each person, and banged them with pinging bells, successfully dismantling the fragile counterfeit into parts.
Not far away, a large number of fragile items slowly approached, and the full moon in the sky seemed to have dropped a little...
