The Crimson Marriage Covenant Looms Over Greenland (5)
"What's going on?" I was drowsy in my head and thirsty in my mouth. Look at the bedside, Scarlett wasn't there, maybe she got up earlier.
The noise outside the door made me a little uneasy, but there were enough worries for today. I don't think it's necessary for me, as a reporter, to understand all the contradictions between their players.
But the voice outside the door was distinctly hysterical, almost frantic screaming.
"Don't touch me! Look what the hell this is! Don't ask me again! Don't ask me again!!"
My heart chuckled.
Seriously, I really don't want to get involved in those things anymore, but my heart tells me it must be a terrible thing. I had to go check it out.
So I quickly got out of bed, opened the door and walked out.
"Scarlett!
I followed the noise as I searched for Scarlett along the way. On the dome of the base, it was already dark, and there were more and more stars in the sky. I think Scarlett must be in the place where the quarrel happened, and when this conflict subsides, I want to go out with her to see the stars.
As I turned the hallway, the noise became clearer, and I could even make out whose throat the voice was being hoarse from the screaming.
"Longbow, what the hell is going on?"
"Don't ask me again!Don't ask me again!!"
"Oh no, no, no, no, boy, you'd better put your bow away. ”
Oh my.
I stood around the corner and looked down the hall. The first thing that came into my eyes was the glittering bow of the longbow, and where the arrow pointed, stood tall world heroes. The heroes who surrounded the two of them in the middle watched Longbow nervously, including Suzanne Catwoman and Maxim the Bearded, all warning him.
"Calm down," unlike the others, the World Hero didn't seem so flustered, he looked at the longbow, without the slightest momentum of attack, "We haven't even figured out what's going on, why are you so impatient?"
"Yes, boy," said Maxim, too, "I see you're mad, put away your bow and arrows, it's too dangerous." ”
In the distance, I saw the longbow's appearance—a sweaty face, bloodshot eyes, and his body heaving violently from heavy gasps, like a frightened rabid dog. What's going on, it was fine just now, why did they suddenly quarrel?
"Kid, what the hell is going on with you?" the world hero took a step forward, trying to get closer to Longbow.
"Get out of here!!"
As soon as the longbow fell, the World Hero quickly turned sideways, and a light arrow grazed his chest and slanted upwards against the wall of the hall. Accompanied by a huge explosion, a bright green light instantly shone on the wall behind the heroes.
"Are you crazy!" Maxim roared, and the onlookers seemed ready to rush to subdue the already mad longbow.
But their actions were stopped by the world hero reaching out.
"Don't move," the World Hero's brow furrowed as he looked at the longbow in front of him, "I'll do it." ”
As soon as the words fell, his tall body disappeared in front of everyone's eyes as if withdrawn.
The longbow seemed to be resisting. But in the next second, the world hero's broad palm slammed into the back of his neck, causing him to fall defenselessly.
The crowd rushed up and held the longbow tightly. Although he is a hero, the longbow does not seem to be good at hand-to-hand combat, and he can only scream miserably when he is held down by everyone, but he can't move a bit.
The world hero standing behind Longbow looked at him with concern and let out a long sigh.
Seeing that the crisis was solved, I couldn't help but walk up and ask.
"Hey, Mr. World Hero," I said to him at a trot, "what's going on?"
The world hero didn't answer me, he shook his head.
I heard Maxim's rough rebuke: "What the hell is going on with you kid! Your fawn girl is still lying in the hospital room, do you want her to wake up and see such a scene!"
"You let go of me!!she doesn't!!tagenbenjiubuzainali!!" I could feel that Longbow had fallen into complete confusion at this time, his words were mixed with English and Chinese, and his voice was hoarse.
"He just shot a creature that broke into the base," Mr. World Hero pointed to that side, "and it turned out like this." ”
I looked over there, and there was indeed the remains of an animal lying in the place that the World Hero was pointing to, but I couldn't tell what it was.
I looked around again, but I didn't see Scarlett. Where would she be in this place, at this time? When such a big thing happened, her keen sense of conflict should have guided her to come here in the first place.
"What the fuck did I do......" I heard the subdued longbow behind me stop struggling, his voice fainting, as if he had uttered it with the last of his strength.
As I approached the strange creature that had been shot down by the longbow - I had seen enough strange things today, there was a palpable burning mark on the wall not far from it, and it was much larger than the one he had left when he shot at the hero of the world, and I could tell that the longbow must have used a great deal of force to pull his bow away when it killed it.
And the missing head on the animal's neck confirmed my suspicion: the light arrow even burned the animal's head directly. Only the cross-section of the charred neck remains.
I looked at the monster further.
I haven't seen a normal creature today! Judging by the hard, parted palms, this thing must be an artiodactyl, but I've never seen a five-legged mammal - a non-anomalous leg sticks out of its side, giving it an extra hoof on the left side of its body than on the right, and the extra leg itself is not abnormal, but the fact that "one extra leg" is a little weird.
Moreover, the animal's neck is irregularly covered with disgusting eyeballs. Green sap flowed from those eyes, like mucus from breaking the stems of a plant.
Luckily, I didn't eat anything, otherwise I would have vomited.
The other heroes gathered here to discuss this strange thing.
"Maybe he's under too much pressure," I said to the World Hero, "after all, after such a fierce battle today, and his girlfriend is still lying in the custody unit at the moment. ”
The World Hero also nodded: "You're right, fortunately, no one was hurt. So he won't be punished very heavily. Maybe you can be exempted from punishment after completing the mental state assessment. ”
After a pause, the World Hero sighed: "I've never seen him like this, he's an impeccable hunter, he shouldn't be like this." ”
"Maybe we can go and see the surveillance later," I proposed, "so we can find out why he's out of control." ”
"You're right. ”
Just then, Maxim walked over.
"Oh, it's annoying," he grabbed his right shoulder with his left hand and waved his right arm vigorously, "People are too old to withstand this kind of tossing." ”
As he spoke, he looked at the corpse of the animal that had fallen over there.
"What is this? He shot to death?" it was clear that he had seen the extra leg as well.
The World Hero nodded: "I don't know what it is." ”
Maxim sneered and took out a hunting knife from behind his waist: "Just look at it." ”
"Wait!" I went up to stop him, "wouldn't that be too reckless?"
Maxim raised an eyebrow: "Don't worry Mr. Scott, it's dead." Dead animals are nothing more than raw meat. So saying, he crouched down and plunged the knife into the animal's belly with great skill.
His optimism made me feel unpleasant. Didn't he know what a strange and dangerous job he was doing every day?
The blade was sharp, and with a smooth stroke, the animal's belly was open, and a pool of green organs flowed out along with the slime. But there was no strong fishy smell coming out, and there was not even a trace of a strange smell in the air.
"Oh," Maxim frowned, "why green blood?"
Fearing that something terrible was contagious—like the zombie virus, which I often see in movies, and I was also afraid that that thing would become a reality—I took a few steps back.
"Can you tell what kind of organs these are?" asked Susanna, Catwoman, leaning closer to Maxim.
Maxim shook his head: "I don't know, you see, it's like a bunch of knotted threads, you can't see the heart and lungs, and the intestines, liver, nothing—nothing." ”
As he spoke, he dipped his fingers in a little bit of the green liquid, oh my god this is disgusting. I couldn't help but turn my head, I didn't think I needed to stay here, they would definitely take care of it, yes, it was just a simple clash between the players. Now it's time for me to go look for Scarlett, I want to get out of here since I didn't find her.
With that in mind, I walked back.
Suddenly, the hero of the world reached out and patted me on the shoulder.
"Mr. Scott, may I come with you?"
"Oh," I nodded, "but you don't need to stay here in command?"
He grinned, "Actually, I rarely participate in management, that's Jason's job, the captain of the second squad, the man who made the forest explode - he's a shrewd guy at that." ”
So I slowed down and left the hall with the world heroes.
"I'm sorry to let you see this," he pouted, "and we rarely have such contradictions. ”
"I think you've handled it pretty well," I didn't think it was a big deal, "at least you didn't hurt anyone, which is remarkable." ”
He listened to me and pondered for a while.
Suddenly, while we were both silent, his communicator rang.
"What's wrong?" asked the World Hero with the instrument on.
"Captain!" Unexpectedly, a panicked voice came from the other end of the communicator, "Miss Lu is gone!
When I heard the words, my heart chuckled. The longbow phrase sounded like a roar in my head.
"You let go of me!!she doesn't!!tagenbenjiubuzainali!!"
I looked up at the hero of the world, and his face was gloomy like never before. He must not have imagined that after all this was over, the most terrifying and intractable thing would happen in what should have been the safest base. But that's not the most frightening thing, because at this point, I somehow thought of the weird animal, the hoofed animal.
"Oh...... No. ”
I felt a chill run up my ankles, through my spine, and finally up my skull, causing my scalp to feel numb. Then my hairs stood on end.
I guess the heroes of the world think the same thing as I do at this time.
"Mr. Scott," he looked down at me, "can you come with me to the monitoring room?"
But Scarlett ...... "I looked at him with some embarrassment, and I understood that he had asked me to go with him to keep me safe—this base seemed to have been turned into a castle of absurd fairy tales."
"We'll find her, but the only one I can protect at the moment is you. He frowned, and there was a tactful plea and a resolute command in his tone.
Nodding helplessly, I compromised. Indeed, with the company of world heroes, it is also easy to find Scarlett and Todd.
......
"Transferred to the intensive care unit. Standing beside the staff, the World Hero commanded.
The scene cuts to the custody room, which is empty. Not to mention Lu Lin himself, even the caretakers, doctors, and even the guards were not there. The whole picture is empty, as if no man's land.
"Onward," the World Hero continued, "Onwards." ”
The picture began to recede, and a blurry mass appeared on the screen.
"Stop. Said the world hero.
He leaned close to the screen, and I approached with him. Although the footage was blurry, I could tell that it was an animal, the same size as the one shot with a longbow, except that its head was still on its neck.
I squinted my eyes, I wanted to take a good look at what strange thing it was, with five legs like this.
Unlike other artiodactyls, it had a long, thin head and no horns. But it has a long mane like a horse (horses are odd hoofs) with a round head under the long black mane......
When I saw it, I felt a wave of dizziness and a strong feeling of nausea. I should have guessed, but I'm praying to God right now—no matter what God, God would be shocked when he sees this—I pray to all the gods in the world, I pray that all I see is a ridiculous post-production, that I'm just participating in a big reality show, because that's the only way I can escape this reality that is slowly starting to get distorted.
If you've already guessed it too, yes, you're not wrong. The animal had the head of the deer forest and the face of the deer forest. It was a somewhat distorted, festering face, brown hair stretching slowly from the animal's neck to the man's chin, and one of her eyes tilted excessively toward her temple—like a herbivore, with eyes growing on either side of the head, helping them to observe to the left and right as they graze—as if the face had the appearance of a quarter of a deer. And the long black mane, where is the mane, it is nothing more than her long black hair.
I looked up at the world hero and I saw his shock.
He raised his large hand, kneading his temples, urging the already stunned staff, "Go on." ”
So the screen continues to play backwards.
The deer, with an extra leg on the left side of its body, limped backwards across the screen, its dense eyes blinking irregularly.
Suddenly, its belly cracked, and first a guard, who fell out of its belly, slowly retreated to his post, and the gun in his hand flew back into his hand from elsewhere. Immediately after, the paramedics, one by one, ran out of its stomach and left the scene backwards.
"Mr. World Hero ......" Finally, the technician stiffly looked back at the World Hero, "She ......"
"Go on. ”
After spitting out the medical staff, the deer continued to retreat, limping back to the hospital room. Then, the hair slowly receded, the body stood up, the extra leg on the left side gradually became shorter, and the original beautiful appearance of the deer forest reappeared in front of my eyes.
Suddenly, her stomach cracked open again, and two doctors, one of whom was the one who treated her on the plane, jumped out. She then lay back into her hospital bed and began to convulse violently and let out terrible screams. The doctors rushed backwards out of the room in her convulsions.
The footage is back to normal.
The above images are all played backwards.
I'm on the verge of a breakdown.
"The screen pans to the lobby," said the World Hero, "from the moment it (it) leaves the custody room." ”
Oh my God, I don't want to describe that picture anymore.
The deer, which had eaten an unknown number of people, limped through the uninhabited passage, and because the heroes were in the rest area, it reached the hall slowly but unimpeded.
On the other side, Longbow, who went to visit her in the custody room, found that it was already empty. So he ran down the hall.
He was fast and found it in the hall.
I don't know what Longbow's mood was at the time, but I understand why he fell into hysteria. I saw the monster, limping close to the longbow, the shape-shaped face trying to get closer to the longbow, but the shape-shaped mouth seemed to be unable to utter a decent word.
Longbow backed away, and I saw him slowly let his guard down, his face full of suspicion, and then, when the deer's face began to speak, he was stunned. Then, he began to cry, shaking his head and tearing his hair hard. The closer the monster got to him, the more he retreated, as if every time he approached, he was more convinced that this deformed thing in front of him was his lover, Lulin, who had been with him for more than twenty years.
Once again, the face called out to Longbow's name.
Longbow wailed, and he bent down hard, pounding his chest. Then he stood up, and the bow of light in his hand was as full as a full moon.
The monster flinched back in fear.
The longbow aimed at it, little by little. He seems to be asking the monster where his lover is. How could he have believed that Lulin would turn into such an ugly thing.
The deformed face, all the more disgusting with fear, leaned forward and called out the name of the longbow.
His face froze.
Then, in a hysterical roar, he unleashed the arrow. Because of the loss of reason, the arrow even deflected, but it still burned the head of the deer forest, leaving the corpse of a deer with an extra leg, and fell to the ground with a pop.
Then, the heroes of the world appeared in the picture like the wind.
"How...... How could this be!" I stepped back, not knowing what to say. How could a simple task become like this?
"Mr. Scott," the World Hero straightened up, his gaze looking at the screen monitoring the hall, "I need you to wait here for a moment. I'll be right back. ”
Following his gaze, I could see that the heroes were kneeling on the ground, layered around the corpses of the deer forest, like a pack of hyenas dividing up the dead bodies.
