Chapter 60: The Dead City
The city of Perona was like a corpse sunk into stagnant water, the silence was terrifying, the smoke was mixed with the choking smell of blood, and the fire that burned the whole city stained the dark night sky red!
The viscous blood on the streets had clotted, and the shops and houses on both sides were still burning.
As his gaze moved forward, piles of corpses scattered on the ground were reflected in Fang Fan's eyes, so numerous that his eyes began to get tired.
Some of these corpses were civilian traders in cloth clothes, and some were soldiers and generals in armor, and they should all be soldiers and civilians of the Landis Kingdom from the perspective of their clothing.
Fang Fan once thought that he had seen the hell of war, but the tattered faces he saw in front of him, as well as the fear on his face, once again refreshed his understanding of cruelty.
The city of Perona was littered with severed hands, broken feet, lower bodies with missing upper bodies and only half of the head left, and an unimaginable number of corpses, but there was not a single intact corpse.
All of them were shattered, and only a small fraction remained, even their parents could not recognize them for who they were.
This is no longer a massacre, but a naked slaughter!
"Check around, if there's anyone alive!"
The tragic situation in front of him made Fang Fan unable to calm down, he preferred to believe that it was caused by a beast.
"It's dangerous here, let's go quickly!"
Artoria's pretty face showed a solemn look and looked at Fang Fan: "No matter what happened here just now, it seems that the wolf army has broken through Perona City, and under this kind of slaughter, no one can survive!" β
"I'm curious about how the Wolves captured Perona, and maybe in the near future, we'll face the same danger!" Fang Fan said.
Subsequently, he sent four cavalry squads to search around the city, while he himself led the army to camp in place and did not go any further.
Fang Fan jumped down from the horse, the wet ground was tightly clinging to the soles of his feet, making it a little difficult for him to walk, he took four steps to the left, squatted down, and stared at a severed hand lying in front of him.
The fingers of this hand are slender and slender, and the skin is very white, which looks like it should be a woman's hand. The blood around it had clotted, and it looked like it had been a while since the hand had been cut off.
What puzzled Fang Fan the most was that the fracture of this hand was a little uneven, not like the traces that could be left by the neat cutting of the sword, but like ......
I was bitten off by my teeth!
A chill suddenly surged from Fang Fan's body, and he felt that something terrible had appeared in this world.
"Many of the dead had bite marks on their bodies and looked like beasts...... "Artoria said.
"Beasts? Can a beast break through a heavily guarded city and kill tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians? Fang Fan frowned, not believing that what was in front of him could be caused by a beast.
Even if all the poisonous insects and beasts in the Chaos Realm are found, they will not want to enter Perona City for half a step.
But Artoria was right, this place was not a good place to stay for long.
Fang Fan slowly stood up and let out a long breath, the overwhelming smell of blood around him made him a little dizzy, he felt that it was time to leave this dangerous place.
"Who? Come out! β
He jerked his head back, his sharp gaze staring at a dilapidated house three meters away.
"Click......"
A cold wind suddenly blew and slammed open the door like a beast, and a little girl in a white dress just emerged from the doorway.
She was seven or eight years old, with a black double ponytail, and she looked very cute, her chubby little hands grabbed the corners of her skirt tightly, and looked at Fang Fan timidly.
Survivor?!
Fang Fan was slightly stunned, slowed down and walked towards the little girl: "Don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person, tell me... What's going on here?! β
The little girl's expression was dull, her eyes were hollow, and her pale face reflected that she had just been baptized by fear, she opened her mouth at Fang Fan and said, "Help...... I ......"
As soon as the weak voice fell, a pitch-black claw poked out of her chest, and the red blood stained the long white dress.
Fang Fan's pupils shrank suddenly, and before he could react, the little girl had been torn to pieces, and a hideous wolf head rushed out of the darkness:
"Roarβ"
A furious roar pierced the silent night, almost piercing Fang Fan's eardrum, and before he could even see what it was, he was thrown to the ground violently, and an indescribable stench erupted from the big mouth full of sharp teeth.
"What the hell ?!!"
Fang Fan shouted angrily, and his whole body was smashed into the ground heavily, he felt as if he was being pressed by a Mount Tai, and the bones of his whole body squeezed by that terrifying force gurgle.
He grabbed the wolf's jaw with his left hand, clenched his right hand into a fist and smashed it into the tyrannical scarlet eyes, punching out one punch after another, smashing his left eye into a bloody mud.
But not only was it not repulsed, but it became even more ferocious, and its two long-haired black claws strangled Fang Fan's neck, causing him to fall into a state of suffocation.
"Get out of here!"
An angry cold drink came.
Artoria slashed with her sword, her long golden hair dancing wildly, and she swung her sword with all her might, slashing the terrifying creature into the air.
"Husband, are you okay?"
The girl picked up Fang Fan anxiously and looked at the latter with some concern.
"Ahem...... It's almost time for my head to move with my neck. β
Fang Fan coughed violently for a while, and slowly stood up with Artoria's support, the scene that happened just now was too thrilling, if it wasn't for the girl's timely action, he would probably have been killed!
Ever since he had eaten the pulp fruit, he hadn't met anyone who could threaten him, but he had almost broken his neck just now, and he was so dangerous that he broke out in a cold sweat.
Fang Fan calmed down as soon as possible, and slowly cast his cold gaze forward with doubt, carefully looking at the monster that almost killed him.
The wolf's head, the human body, the whole body is covered with jet-black hair, the body is three meters tall, the chest is bulging with steel-like muscles, and the two slender wolf claws are as sharp as knives.
"It's ...... Werewolf?!! β
Fang Fan's mouth opened wide in shock, staring at the terrifying werewolf not far away in disbelief.
No way!
How could such a legendary monster appear in the city of Perona?!
