Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Secret Behind the Corpse
The young man in front of him, who looked unkempt, turned around and exuded a foul smell, and he realized that the place he was in now was smoky.
Where the boy was hiding, the place was filled with blood.
But there was no sign of anything else.
This young man, skinny, but he didn't see any fear in his eyes, and stared at Liu Yu deadly, as if telling him with his eyes:
"Don't think I'm going to surrender, I'm going to fight to the death today!"
Liu Yu looked at the poor child in front of him, and his heart was full of emotion.
In his own time, he had seen many of these children, abducted by human traffickers or...
But this sympathy suddenly disappeared, filled with doubts about him.
There is neither strong strength nor the help of strong people, just a boy who seems to be very weak and can use hidden weapons in the shadows, and can break into this place that very few people know.
"How did you ......?"
Just as Liu Yu asked him a question, the surroundings began to freeze again, and the prototype of the ice gun was slowly forming.
Liu Yu found that this ice-like thing seemed to be the boy's ability, but the boy did not let down his guard because both of them fell here, and still wanted to deal with Liu Yu.
The flames that filled Liu Yu's body were blazing, and the original cold turned into a high temperature scorching, turning the ice spear that had just appeared into water droplets.
To Liu Yu's surprise, the boy suddenly lay on the ground and greedily drank the ice water that had just melted.
Drinking and drinking, the boy suddenly let out a sob, originally just a small sob, but then the sound became louder and louder, and when it reached a peak, Liu Yu seemed to hear the great fear after facing the despair of death.
He may have killed the person who was hit by the arrow outside, but when a person is full of extreme fear, he will be full of defense against everything, because only in this way can he avoid being hurt and save his life.
Thinking of the carrion on the bones outside, and the blood stains in the depths of this temple, the reason why this child was able to survive became clear at a glance.
He also has the ability to reduce the room temperature to extreme cold, so the reason for surviving is ......
The child looked at Liu Yu in front of him, absolutely suppressed him, and the fear in his eyes gradually disappeared, replaced by a longing.
He may hope that the person in front of him will be able to take him out of this place and regain his chance to see the sun again.
"You... You...", he could barely finish a sentence due to his incessant choking.
Liu Yu comforted him and patted him on the back gently. In the face of absolute power, there is no way to resist except for the death struggle, unless he stretches out a pair of hands that drag him out of the deep valley outside the crisis.
After a while, the child's emotions slowly calmed down, and he said intermittently:
"Brother, you... This... So powerful, able... Can you take me out there? ”
Listening to the child's slow narration, he understood what was going on inside the temple.
This kid is from the Hanging City far away.
He was born with this special ability, and the people of Hanging City also hoped that this kid could make full use of his ability to bring some fame to the remote Hanging City.
So they made a long journey to this place, passing by the ruins of Thunder.
Their elders in the city had told them the only way to get out of this place by hiding from the thunder and lightning.
So when the group arrived, they watched and calculated how to reach this mysterious and powerful place.
One of their team was a naturally intelligent man, who discovered the pattern of lightning strikes, and everyone successfully entered the temple without any casualties.
But although they considered almost all the situations, they didn't know that there was a Thunderlord who controlled thunder and lightning.
The crowd rested for the day and set out when there was almost no thunder and lightning, intending to pass through the place until their end.
Just as the vanguard had taken a step, a bolt of lightning struck impartially.
But they didn't know that someone was hiding, waiting for the lambs to come and die one by one.
The people who rushed out from behind, no matter how fast, ended up with only a dead end.
"Stop struggling! Either die in the cave or be shattered by my lightning! ”
The sudden sound overwhelmed them and left them dumbfounded.
Before leaving, the old man's introduction did not mention that there was also a guardian here.
Someone kept trying, but only death.
They can only hope for someone else to pass through here, defeat this Guardian, and take them out of this hell on earth.
But time passed, and as the days passed, there was still no hope of getting out of here.
The child was curled up in the corner every day, terrified.
The food in their baggage is getting less and less, and they are all on the verge of collapse.
In the face of death, the willfulness of the people has been completely lost.
The initial careful care of the child has become resentment at this moment.
Resentment of this child who they have high hopes for, but can't bring them to see the light of day and get through it.
On the day they ran out of food, they pointed the finger at the child.
If you want to live, you can only attack your own companions. In order not to be retaliated against and threatened by others, it is clear that this child is the best victim candidate.
On this day, everyone looked at the child more and more strangely, and even did not give him anything to eat, and he himself had some guesses. It is possible that you have fallen into the trap of the unknown.
As night fell, everyone held weapons and did not make a sound, hoping to kill them with one blow and prevent the child's retaliation.
But when they reached the depths of the temple, the cold made them retreat, but there was no way back.
As they walked up, the bricks on the ground moved, and a rain of swords came to their faces.
Bursts of ice guns shot out from the depths, and everyone who heard the sound rushed over, but the bursts of ice guns left them with no survivors.
Outside became silent, and the child tentatively walked out. One of the corpses that looked at the ground frightened him until he cried out loud.
"Kid... Use... With your abilities, let's... Corrupt not so fast, insist... Survive..."
This is the uncle who took good care of him before he died, and he may only be able to survive by eating human flesh.
Time passed. He had even lost the concept of time, and when the corpse was gone, Liu Yu appeared.
What courage it takes for a child who has never been in the world to persevere like this!
Looking at Liu Yu's suddenly serious expression, he probably knew that the brother in front of him, who he thought was powerful, might also be in a predicament.
The boy felt that his hope of escaping from the ruins of thunder might be small, and the light in his eyes faded.
