Outside the iron gate is a stone corridor with dim lights, and the stone walls on both sides of the corridor are carved with various pictograms, and the whole corridor is quiet and silent, without a sound.

Rorschach stared down the hallway, narrowing his eyes slightly, and under the "hunter tracking", there were no humanoid dots around. He then entered the "stealth" state and walked out of the iron gate.

The stone hallway was not too wide, with only three adult males passing side by side, and the walls on either side were covered with various pictograms, though they were too dilapidated to be read.

Rorschach walked down the hallway, looking around from time to time, and everything here told him that this place was definitely some years old, and although it was not necessarily a relic of the Mayan dynasty, it should be hundreds of years old.

Rorschach continued down the hallway, and after turning a few corners, he saw a stone staircase descending.

Walking down the stone staircase, Rorschach reached the second basement floor.

This layer is filled with an unpleasant stench, which is comparable to "canned herring", which is unbearable.

Rorschach frowned, but had to hold her breath as much as she could, and if she could breathe in as little as she could, she would inhale as little as possible.

At this time, under "Hunter Tracking", two humanoid dots appeared nearby.

Rorschach looked at the position of the two humanoid dots and felt that the two humanoid dots were not Isabella and them, but he decided to "ask" them anyway.

Rorschach walked down the hallway to the vicinity of the humanoid dots, and he saw a stone chamber with open doors, and two humanoid dots inside. Immediately, he walked to the door of the stone chamber.

In the stone room, two men sitting on the ground with naked upper bodies and tattered shorts, like savages, one of them holding a stone bowl full of blood and raw flesh, one of which resembles a human ear.

Rorschach looked at the two savages who were feasting, narrowed his eyes, drew his dagger from behind his waist, and quietly walked into the stone chamber.

The two savages were completely unaware of the entry into the stone chamber, and they "purred, purred" and ate the bloody food in the bowl, looking intoxicated and extremely satisfied.

Rorschach walked up behind one of the wildlings and raised his dagger.

The wild man had just fished out half of his finger from the stone bowl and put it in his mouth for a while, and let out a strange "hehe" laugh.

Suddenly, the sword flashed, and in this instant, the wild man seemed to hear the sound of air flowing into the air pipe and blood spurting out.

The other wild man was splattered with blood from the sudden spurt, and in his panic he tried to stand up.

But Rorschach was out of his "stealth" state, and he swung his fist into the wildling's chest.

Bang!

The wild man let out a strange scream, and flew backwards, slamming into the wall of the stone chamber behind him.

Rorschach stepped forward and grabbed the wild man by the neck, lifting him against the wall.

The wild man looked at Rorschach in horror and let out a "hiss, hiss" sound.

Rorschach frowned slightly and asked:

"Do you understand me?"

"Hiss, hiss, hiss......"

The wild man screamed as he tried to break open the palm of his neck, but Rorschach's hand was like a pincer that held the wild man tight.

Rorschach now understood that the savage could not speak, that is, could not communicate, and he shook his head and raised his dagger to stab the savage in the chest.

The savage saw the dagger stabbing and struggled frantically.

Flutter!

The dagger sank into the savage's chest, and he tried to scream but his throat was stuck so hard that he couldn't make a sound, and after a shudder, he hung his head weakly and didn't move.

Rorschach tossed the mud-like wildling to the ground and mended the knife to the other, before turning away from the stone chamber.

After searching this level, Rorschach found no other humanoid dots, and after finding a staircase leading to the lower level, he went to the third basement level.

This level was not as foul-smelling as the previous one, and after some searching, Rorschach found a humanoid dot in front of a wooden door.

Rorschach pushed open the wooden door and walked inside, and rows of shelves appeared in front of him, apparently this was a warehouse.

The shelves were stocked with various personal items, including hats, clothes, driver's licenses, watches, etc., which should have belonged to the drinker killed in the bar, many of which had been sitting for a long time and were covered with dust.

Not only that, but Rorschach also found objects from hundreds of years ago in a shelf store, which proves that the vampire monsters here have been preying on humans for centuries.

At this moment, the humanoid polka dot in the warehouse walked out from behind a row of shelves, and it was a blonde man at least 190 tall, wearing a leather jacket and leather pants.

The blonde man whistled, walked to the corner of the warehouse, unzipped his leather pants, and began to make it easy on the spot.

Rorschach walked quietly towards him.

The blonde man was completely unaware, and after a shiver, he took a deep breath.

At this point, Rorschach patted him on the shoulder.

"Holy!"

The blonde man let out a scream and jumped to his feet.

Bang!

Rorschach grabbed him by the back and pushed him against the wall, and he said coldly:

"Isn't it cool?"

"God!" The blonde man screamed, his face tilted against the wall and said, "No, don't kill me!" Don't kill me! ”

"Open your mouth."

Rorschach ordered.

"Yes, yes!"

The blonde man hurriedly opened his mouth.

"Bigger!"

Rorschach frowned.

"I'm wide open! It's wide! ”

The blonde man argued as he tried to open his mouth as wide as he could.

Rorschach looked at the blonde man's teeth and saw that there were no fangs that resembled fangs.

The blonde man leaned on the wall and said tremblingly:

"Y-You're not a monster out there?"

"What about you?"

Rorschach asked rhetorically.

"I'm not a monster out there, I'm human, I'm human!"

The blonde man hurriedly said.

Rorschach narrowed his eyes, and while he couldn't fully trust the blonde man's words, at least the guy could communicate.

"Can you, can you let me go?"

The blonde man asked quietly.

Rorschach let go of his hand and decided to "talk" to him.

The blonde man turned around, immediately zipped up his leather pants, then raised his hands and said nervously:

"I'm really human!"

"Why are you here?"

Rorschach asked.

The blonde man gasped and said:

"My name is Aiden Tanner, I'm a professor in the Department of Archaeology at Alamo State University, and I realized last year when a police officer named Gonzalez asked me about the serial killings that had taken place on the border between Sam's Country and Mexico...... Something he's investigating...... It's unprecedented...... So I decided to start investigating, and here I am. ”

Rorschach nodded and asked:

"So how did you survive from them?"

"It's all ......luck," Aiden said with a wry smile, shrugging his shoulders, "I was thrown into a meat grinder, I didn't die, and then I hid here." ”

"How long have you been down there?"

"A month?" Aiden frowned, "It could also be a year, you have to know that time is like a ribbon......"

"You're hiding here?"

Rorschach was also a little surprised, he didn't expect Aiden to hide here for so long.

"Yes," Aiden sighed, "there are blood-sucking monsters out there, and I don't dare go out, but luckily they all threw dead people's belongings here, and there was often wine and some convenience food, so I survived." ”

Rorschach nodded and asked:

"What else do you know?"

Aiden thought for a moment and said:

"Did you see the writing on the wall outside when you came in?"

"See."

Rorschach nodded.

Aiden Says:

"It's just ancient history for most people, but I've always believed that the legends are true, especially their power."

"What power?"

"Their blood sacrifice can summon the Phantom Serpent, giving them a higher level of consciousness so that they can see what doesn't actually exist."

"What is something that doesn't actually exist?"

"What do you say...... Aiden, frowning and saying slowly, "it's something that humans look at and go crazy...... I mean past, future...... What we humans can't see...... ...... from outside this world."
