Standing in front of the blocked entrance, Rosen was still a little unwilling.

"It's about five meters deep from the ground, and maybe we can dig it out of here." He said.

Using the magic of alchemy, it is still possible to dig out a passage.

Of course, it will be very hard to do this, but the result is certain, even if you will face the mage Grimm and the Earl's guard when you reach the ground, it is safer than staying in the dark underground tunnels and facing a group of unknown monsters.

Lilith was a little moved by what she said: "Are you sure?" ”

"As long as you have enough time, dig through...... Oh, forget it, we're afraid we don't have time to do that. ”

Lawson listened intently to the movement in the corridor. He noticed that in addition to the sound of water and wind, there was also some faint additional movement, the sound was very soft, some similar to footsteps, and some similar to heavy breathing.

I thought of a few roars in the distance when I used the high-explosive bomb just now. Lawson had every reason to believe that there must be quite a few monsters coming towards the place where he and the water ghosts were fighting, and if he stayed where he was, he might encounter a lot of strange and unheard of monsters.

Lilith didn't hear the movement, but she had a good brain, and when she heard Lawson say this, she understood after a little thought: "So which way are we going?" ”

At this time, there are two options, one is to walk back in the direction of the water ghost battle, and the other is to go in the other direction along the road.

The advantage of the former is that you know the road ahead, and the disadvantage is that you are likely to encounter the monster that is rushing over. The advantage of the latter option is that the probability of meeting the monster will be much smaller, but what exactly lies ahead, whether it is a dead end, or whether it can find an exit, Rosen has no idea.

After a few seconds of silence, Lawson made a second choice.

"The sewage is flowing this way, and even if we can't find an outlet, as long as we keep walking in the direction of the water, we should end up in the Bishui River, right?"

"It's up to you." Lilith didn't have a better idea.

Lawson flashed his flashlight and walked deeper into the unknown passage.

This time, he learned his previous lesson. As he moved forward, he mobilized his alchemy magic to form a simple gas barrier around the two of them, which was used to isolate the scent from their bodies.

After walking cautiously forward for about 10 minutes, Rosen suddenly felt that Lilith's body on his back was weak, lying on her stomach softly, as if she was out of breath.

He was startled: 'It can't be dead, is it?' ’

Hurriedly checked, and found that Lilith's breathing and heartbeat were very stable, and Rosen reacted: "I guess I'm too tired and asleep." ”

He slowed his pace, and then gently reached out his hand, straightening Lilith's head, which was dangling around his shoulder, and then quickened his pace a little, and continued on his way.

The road was straight and long, and there were black holes all the way, and Lawson walked for half an hour, at least seven or eight miles, and he didn't even see an exit to the ground.

"Hell, isn't this an underground sewer? Why can't I see the sewage pipe? ”

Whenever there was a sewage pipe, he would have to find a way to climb out along the pipe, even if he risked getting his body wet. As long as you can get back to the sun, it's easy to say anything.

There was no way, he could only keep walking.

After walking for about ten minutes, the road ahead seemed to turn at a right angle, and it was inferred from the reflection of the flashlight light and the sound of the air flow that the space behind the curve should be much larger than that of the road.

"Maybe there's a big underground space ahead. Hopefully there's a slightly safer place ahead for me to activate my alchemy talent. ”

He now has 2 free talent points, which can activate the third layer of the electromagnetic scythe, plus electronic empowerment, and at that time, the elemental control power alone will increase to 3000 points, which is fully double the current one.

In this unknown land, new powers mean a greater chance of survival.

This time, Rosen learned to be obedient, he was afraid that something would happen, so he turned off the flashlight early, and only relied on the detection of alchemy magic to grope forward lightly.

After touching for about a hundred meters, the feeling of alchemy magic feedback suddenly disappeared, and the walls on the left and right sides of the corridor and above were all gone, and the surroundings became empty.

Lawson's eyes couldn't see anything, and the alchemy magic could only reach out 2 meters, which made him feel weak for a while.

He hurriedly took a step back, groped his way to the wall of the corridor, and then groped all the way to the wall, and continued to walk forward.

As he continued to explore and advance, Rosen learned more and more about this terrain

There is a large recess in the shape of a rectangular shape, about 6 meters deep and more than 2 meters high..... Wait, there are still some stone pillars in this place. Huh~ What is this...... It seems to be a stone staircase, hiss~ How can there be a staircase in this ghost place? No one will live there, right? ’

Lawson was curious and apprehensive in his heart, and after thinking about it for a few seconds, he still couldn't hold back, took the flashlight in his hand again, 'snapped', and pressed the switch.

The light appeared suddenly, and Lawson's eyes adjusted to the darkness, and the sudden appearance of light made him squint, and it took several seconds before he opened his eyes and looked forward.

With just one look, Rosen's heart almost stopped.

Four meters in front of him, there was a man standing...... No, to be precise, it was a small monster, about only one meter and one tall, his body was very thin, naked, only a piece of tattered fur around his waist, and the exposed skin of his body was blue and black, and it looked a little similar to the water ghost killed by Lawson before.

The most peculiar thing is that it has two huge eyes on its face, which occupy almost half of its face. These eyes are also very strange, all black, with only pupils and no whites.

The little thing was hiding behind a stone pillar, its big black eyes wide open, and its body motionless, as if it were a statue.

Lawson was stunned, and the little monster seemed to be startled, the two of you look at me, I look at you, your eyes are unblinking, and your body doesn't move at all, as if you have been hit by petrification magic together.

In the end, it was Lawson who came back to his senses first.

'Click', the left hand picked up the spiral troll, the muzzle of the gun pointed at the little monster, Rosen's heart settled down a little, and then he shouted: "What are you?" ”

He had never seen anything like it in the game, not even if it looked like it.

The little monster was startled, its eyes widened, and a pair of black eyes almost fell out of its sockets. He glanced at the musket in Lawson's hand, then at Lilith behind Lawson, and finally, he turned his gaze back to Lawson's face and replied, "Are you from the earth?" ”

The little monster actually used the official language of the Northern Alliance, although the tone was not accurate, but he spoke very slowly, and Lawson could barely understand it.

Able to speak, his body is not strong, there should be no threat, Rosen breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes, I am from the earth." What about you, what are you? ”

There was a hint of confusion in the little monster's big eyes: "I don't know either." ”

After speaking, his voice suddenly became anxious: "People on the ground, you shouldn't come here!" You belong to the gods, and you should not go to the realm of the gods of the earth! ”

Rosen listened confusedly, he knew the gods, but what is the god of the earth? Why shouldn't earthlings go to the realm of the gods?

The little monster ignored Rosen, and he gestured with one hand: "People on the ground, get out of here quickly!" If the lord finds you, you'll be captured...... Oh~ What an evil light, I hate the light, it stabs my eyes, you put away the light in your hand! ”

Seeing him like this, Lawson removed the flashlight and took a closer look at the surroundings.

He found that this was a piece of recessed in the wall of the corridor, as if it were a small room, and it was a two-story hut, the first floor had no door, only four stone pillars for support, and went up the stairs to the second floor, there was a wooden door, the wooden door was half-open and half-hidden, and the space inside seemed to be quite spacious.

After a few glances, Rosen asked, "Little thing, do you live here?" ”

The little monster didn't answer, he waved his hand again and again, urging: "You go quickly!" Come on! Go back where you came from! Otherwise, if you are discovered by the lord, you will be completely finished! ”

This guy seems to be a zealous monster.

Rosen spread his hands: "I want to go back too, but my way back is blocked." I'm looking for other ways out now, and I want to ask you, can I get out if I keep walking? ”

"No, you can't get out, you'll just go all the way to the center of the Dark City, and then be torn apart and eaten by those big guys with strong bodies!"

"So what should I do?" Lawson asked busily.

The little monster seemed to be very annoyed, he pouted, showing a mouth full of fangs, suddenly, he ran to the other side of the corridor to take a cautious look, and then ran quickly to the stairs, until he ran to the door of the wooden door on the second floor, he waved his hand to Lawson vigorously: "Hurry up, come up with me, the patrol guard is coming, come to my house to hide." ”

There were even patrols, and Lawson had the feeling of breaking into a monster's den.

There was no way, he could only carry Lilith on his back and follow the little monster into his home.

"Bang~"

As soon as he entered the door, the little monster closed the wooden door and locked it, which was not enough, so he ran to the small window of the room, closed all the windows tightly, and covered the gap with a layer of animal fur of unknown species, and then turned around and looked at Rosen: "People on the ground, now, can you put away the light?" My eyes hurt! ”

Lawson could only turn off the flashlight, and the room fell into absolute darkness again, and at the same time it was very quiet, except for the sound of breathing.

"What the hell is going on?" Lawson couldn't help but ask.

"I don't know." The voice of the little monster rang out from the previous position.

Rosen asked again: "Then why are you helping .....?"

Before he could finish speaking, he heard the little monster suddenly say, "Don't talk yet, the dead guard is coming!" ”

Rosen immediately shut his mouth.

The room fell silent.

After about a few seconds, Rosen suddenly heard a heavy wheezing sound not far from the stone house, and on Earth, the only people who could make this sound by breathing alone were elephants, rhinoceros, and other giants.

After a while, Rosen smelled a pungent fishy stench in his nose, which reminded him of the smell of the slaughterhouse: 'It's blood, blood that is extremely thick. ’

After a while, Lawson actually felt a cold breath appear in the air, and the temperature began to plummet, and after a few seconds, his body involuntarily began to tremble.

"The temperature must have dropped below freezing, estimated to be in the minus 10s. Hiss ~ so cold ~ so cold ~ "

After a while, Lilith, who was wrapped in a thick quilt, couldn't bear it anymore, and began to shiver in her sleep, and her hands involuntarily hugged Lawsen's body, her face pressed tightly against his neck, instinctively warm.

The cold sensation lasted for about a dozen seconds, and then suddenly disappeared again, just as suddenly as it appeared.

The little monster's voice rang out: "Alright, the Death Guard is gone." ”

Rosen was still in extreme shock, heavy breathing, heavy blood, and irresistible cold, how terrible should the power of this death guard be?

The little monster said to himself: "People on the ground, I didn't help you for nothing. You have to repay me. ”

"How do you repay it?" Rosen asked.

"The man on your back is weak, a burden, and of no use to you. I can help you get out of the Dark City, but only if you give me this burden on your back. ”

Rosen's heart tightened: "Since it's a burden, what are you going to do?" ”

"Of course it's eating. Anyway, she's going to die, so much meat, it's a waste not to eat it. The little monster said it as a matter of course, and after saying that, he swallowed his saliva and made a 'grunt' sound.
