Chapter 81: Horror Stories in Comic Book Awards (Part II)
The title of the first manga on Godot is called DYATLOV, does this mean anything specifically? Xiao Gangjun doesn't understand for the time being. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
In fact, the meaning is still there, and the next thing you will understand is that this is actually a person's name.
Then he didn't rush to read the story, but paid attention to the name of the comic author...... Koji Suzuki, who hadn't heard of it before, should be a pure newcomer.
Then he focused his attention on the comic itself.
At the beginning of the story, the characters appear in what appears to be a classroom on a college campus.
And judging by the architectural style, it is a Western-style school.
There are a total of 10 characters who appear.
From the point of view of the character characteristics, although this is a Japanese-style comic, the image design of the characters is certainly in line with the habits of the island country, but it can still be seen that the background setting of this story is in Europe and the United States, and the characters in the comics are all foreigners.
Sure enough, the exact time and place soon appeared in the comics.
13 Peace Street, Yekaterinburg, Ural Technical Institute, Yekaterinburg, Soviet Russia.
Year 1959.
He guessed correctly, this is indeed a story with a foreign background, and the story takes place very early.
The ten people in the classroom are probably the main characters of the story, and although they are all smiling and enthusiastically discussing this issue, the composition of the entire comic manuscript is actually a little weird and incongruous, and the tone of the picture tends to be gray.
This seems to have rendered and revealed the tone of the story.
This way of clearly marking when and where the story takes place is to create a sense of realism, so that the reader can bring in a certain "real" emotion when reading.
The story starts very simply, it turns out that these people are planning a mountaineering expedition a few days later.
Seeing this, Xiao Gangjun had already guessed what type of story this was, and he turned back to the first page again to compare it, and the guess was basically determined.
This is a story of supernatural horror.
The story has always emphasized a sense of realism, and whenever the scene changes, there will be detailed hints of time and place.
The leader of the ten-man expedition is called Dyatlov, an experienced mountaineer and snow explorer, who will lead the team into the mountains in the dead of winter.
As for the destination of this expedition, it is the Ototen Mountains in the Ural Mountains.
The Ural Mountains divide Asia and Europe, is a very famous mountain range, but in terms of altitude, it is not high, the highest point is not more than 2000 meters, but because it is in the high latitude zone, especially in winter, the wind and snow are very large, and the temperature may drop below minus 40 degrees, so it is quite thrilling to explore at this time.
According to the hints and instructions in the comics, it is easy to determine that the actions of these people are actually going to die.
But people are like this, sometimes it's uncomfortable not to die, and this is still the case for ordinary people, let alone a naturally tough fighting nation.
At this time, Xiao Gangjun has completely brought the reader's perspective, and he carefully pays attention to the development of the story.
When his meeting expedition was over, several people disbanded, and they did not really seek death, of course they had to be fully prepared.
Warm equipment, tents, food, sleds, flashlights, fire tools, cotton clothing, self-defense items, etc......
On January 27, the time was emphasized, which was the time of departure of the expedition.
The ten people gathered again that day, and then they had everything ready, and they took large bags and small bags, dressed in windproof suits and heavy cotton clothes, and began to set out towards their destination.
In the beginning, they took the train and then changed to a truck half a day later.
The driver of the truck was a very talkative person, and when he learned that these people were going to climb the mountain and told him where he was climbing, he kept dissuading the ten people to stop and not die.
But he didn't fail to explain the detailed reasons, and when he was in advance of that place, his eyes flashed with fear.
But the climbers didn't care, they felt underestimated.
Good swimmers drowning, these people are themselves mountaineering and skiing enthusiasts, they believe in their skills and means, and they are also professionals, how can they be easily persuaded to go back.
Soon after changing to a truck, the road ahead was closed.
Fortunately, several people had already prepared, and they had planned the route in advance, they stepped out of the truck, ignored the driver's eyes, changed into a sleigh and continued to ski towards their destination.
On the first night, they camped in the wilderness, and nothing happened.
However, the sky was a little overcast, as if it was a sign that bad weather was coming.
The next day, they followed the map to find an indigenous tribe, and the leader of the indigenous tribe in the ice field was very hospitable to outsiders...... However, when the leader heard of their destination, his attitude immediately reversed, and not only did he lose his previous friendliness, but he drove them out.
The natives, in fear of that place.
The members of the expedition team were puzzled, but they didn't pay much attention to it, who knows what these people who insist on living in the mountains and refuse to live a modern life really think.
That afternoon, however, problems began to arise in the expedition.
A member named Yuri suddenly falls ill, and the cause and symptoms are unknown, but Yuri says he can't move with the team anyway.
Captain Dyatlov wanted to have Yuri accompany him back, but Yuri refused, citing the fact that it was unnecessary.
It's not a no-man's land, and it only takes just over 1 hour to get back to the indigenous tribe and then follow a clear path back to the town below.
Yesterday they arrived at the foot of the mountain in the evening, and there was no hurry, so the overnight happened, and now he can return before dark if he only needs to hurry.
It's really not far, Dyatlov thought about it, and agreed to Yuri's approach.
Truth be told, everyone is thinking about the expedition, and no one really wants to go back with Yuri.
So Yuri returned alone, so that the ten-man team became a nine-man team.
Yuri's departure did not provoke any other reaction from the expedition, they just felt a little regretful that they could not continue with their companions.
They didn't notice anything out of the ordinary.
In the next four days, the nine people completely entered the no-man's land, they crossed the snow and ice lake, took photos of different scenery at different times, wrote expedition logs, and completely immersed themselves in the adventure.
Without any communication facilities and inadequate security, they headed for their destination.
But on the night of the fourth day, something unexpected happened.
In this no-man's-land where even beasts are almost non-existent, a female member named Karina insists that she has seen something watching them.
She became suspicious.
But when they checked the place she was pointing, they found nothing, not to mention the human figures, and there were not even the footprints of wild beasts left in the snow.
If there were any creatures there, there would be no trace left on the soft snow.
Unless that's not a creature at all.
Even Karina wondered if she was in a magical trance.
They forgot about it in a blink of an eye, and the next day they were still in good spirits and continued to move towards their destination.
However, bad weather came.
The snowstorm came unexpectedly, and they couldn't see the road clearly in the snow, so they had to choose to camp on the spot in order not to lose their way.
In the midst of the snowstorm, they had worked hard to re-pitch their tents, and so far they had not noticed anything unusual, the kind of weather was all too common for their country in winter.
They are prepared and therefore fearless of nature.
But only in nature, there is also something in the world called supernatural.
The temperature was below minus 30 degrees that night, and while they were asleep, an accident happened.
The wind and snow suddenly ripped open their tent and brought something unknown in.
These nine people suddenly seemed to be insane, facing the mysterious and unknown attack, they woke up from their dreams, and then, for some reason, they actually took off their clothes in this low temperature and ran out naked into the wind and snow.
One of the team members named Crivorni ran barefoot and wearing only underwear into the pine forest, and as he ran, a flame suddenly ignited in one of his arms, and the flames burned all over his body.
Senko quickly climbed a big tree in a strange posture like a strange species, and then fell headfirst as if he had lost that strength.
Ruth stood still in the snow, and after a strange smile, he buried himself in the snow abruptly.
After running a distance, the other three suddenly seemed to come back to their senses, and began to resist this mysterious force, they reflexively ran towards the tent, in the bitter cold, if they did not want to die, they needed clothing.
But the mysterious force was too strong, and they could only crawl against the tent with all their strength.
Then their skulls cracked so abruptly that blood flowed down the crack and then condensed on the ice.
The other three sped in the same direction, and then they jumped into a sudden ice ditch as if they were suicidal, and the remaining one tried to scream, but stuck out his tongue and fell headlong like his two companions.
The direction of the wind and snow is very erratic, as if something is hidden......
In the end, only Dyatlov was left, and he still had the clothes on him, so he just wanted to escape from here, but as if something was pressing on his back, he could only crawl through the snow with difficulty.
Suddenly, he was in some pain, and his head was up.
One of his eyeballs rolled down the snow, but not a drop of blood came out of his hollow eye socket.
Then he covered his eyes and turned on his back, and at this time, his abdomen began to bulge, and ribs bloomed out of his body like flowers.
…………
It had been agreed that the expedition should send a telegram to the school's athletic club on February 12 to report safety, but the school would never receive it.
After that, the school organized a rescue team, and the strange death of the group appeared in front of the world......
This cartoonist named Suzuki is very good at creating a distorted and weird atmosphere of the human body, and he didn't make a specific explanation of the mysterious unknown from beginning to end, no one knows what killed this group of people, but the terrifying atmosphere can be easily perceived.
When that character raised his empty eyes, it really startled Xiao Gangjun, who was really reading the comics.
ALTHOUGH THEY ARE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT TYPES, XIAO GANGJUN STILL PICKED UP HIS OWN WORK, COOLRENTALBODYGUARD, AND TRIED TO COMPARE HIS OWN SHORTCOMINGS.
