Chapter 154: The Smell of the Living
The underground waterways are very dark, like a thick cloud of ink that cannot be dissolved. It's also very quiet, except for the 'clattering' of running water, except for the occasional 'squeak' of sewer rats.
In this quiet environment, the conversation coming from the front was very clear, not only did Lawson hear it, but Lilith also roughly heard the conversation in the distance.
Through the thick quilt, Rosen still felt her heart beat faster.
He gently retreated back to the narrow corridor before, leaned into Lilith's ear, and whispered, "Scared? ”
Lilith nodded slightly: "A little nervous." ”
The content of the dialogue is terrifying, and the voice is not like that of ordinary people, the two guys who came over in front of them are nine times out of ten monsters, and they are also man-eating monsters, the surrounding environment is as dark as ink, and what makes people feel even more weak is that she is weak and does not have any power to protect herself.
Although Lawson has good combat effectiveness, the sewers are the home of monsters, and in such an environment, it is difficult to predict the outcome of one-on-two.
In case they are caught by the other party, there is a good chance that they will be used as food by monsters and eaten alive.
This kind of death was so tragic that just thinking about it in her head, Lilith's hair exploded uncontrollably.
Lawson's back was also a little cold, he was not afraid of the two monsters in front of him, but he felt that the surrounding environment was really a little weird, and it looked like an underground city.
Since it is a city, it is likely that there will be residents, but who would live in such a ghost place as a normal person?
My conjecture must not be fulfilled, otherwise my life will probably be lost in this place where dogs don't." ’
Just then, Rosen discovered a new situation.
"Look, those two guys are getting closer and closer to us. It's only about 30 meters away from us. ”
Lilith took a slow breath and suppressed the fear in her heart: "The five senses of monsters are very sharp, it is not safe for us to hide here, otherwise, we should hide back, maybe they are just passing by." ”
"You have a point."
Lawson stepped back along the way he had come from, he really didn't want to have a conflict with these two monsters, because the weapons he carried were quite large, and he was not familiar with the situation of the underground waterways, and it was easy to startle the snake if he used it rashly, and if he attracted more monsters, it would be a headache.
He retreated lightly, and had been about sixty or seventy meters backwards before stopping.
Then, he gently placed Lilith in the aisle behind him, reached out and pulled out the spiral troll hanging from his belt, and with his left hand, he pulled out a flashbang, a silver dust bomb designed to deal with monsters, from the package.
Among them, the silver powder bomb is placed on the left hand side, and the flash grenade is directly pinched in his hand, as long as the situation changes, he can bite off the pull ring and detonate it as soon as possible.
After making preparations, he half-crouched on the ground, raised the spiral troll in his right hand, and looked at the exit of the tunnel in front of him with full vigilance.
The two monsters walked all the way, and soon, the other party came to the entrance of the corridor, and then, the footsteps began to disappear again.
Rosen had been listening intently to the movement ahead, and when he found out about this situation, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, just passing by." ”
Lilith also heard it, and she let out a long breath, and the tense heartstrings relaxed, and after the heart guard relaxed, she felt a strong sense of exhaustion welling up in her heart, and her eyelids became a lot heavier.
At this moment, there was a sudden 'sigh' inhalation sound at the Yongdaokou, and then, the hoarse voice like glass rubbing suddenly sounded: "George, do you smell something?" ”
"What's wrong?" A shrill voice rang out.
The inhalation sound of 'Xiu Xiu' sounded again, and after a few seconds, the hoarse voice sounded again, and there was a hint of excitement in the voice: "Hiss~~~ There is the smell of a living person, it is very fresh, and a living person has just stayed here!" ”
Hearing his words, Rosen couldn't help but curse in his heart: "It's really a dog's nose." ”
As soon as this thought came to him, a shrill voice immediately sounded: "Is there really a living person? I'll smell it. ”
He began to inhale with a 'boom', and Rosen could almost imagine the guy looking up and inhaling.
After about five or six seconds, a shrill voice suddenly sounded: "Sure enough, there is the smell of a living person." It's really strange, why do big living people come to the dark city? ”
'Dark City? Rosen's heart was shocked, and he felt the urge to hit the wall.
Since it is called a dark city, it means that it is a huge underground world, and there are many monster residents who hide it. To make matters worse, he had no idea where the underground waterways were going, and if he walked awkwardly, he might be able to go all the way to the monster's lair.
There is no difference between doing this and sending you to die.
When he thought this, he suddenly felt Lilith's body tremble slightly behind him, and obviously, Lilith also thought of a similar situation.
At the entrance of the Yongdao, the two monsters walked back and finally stopped at the exit of the Yongdao.
The hoarse voice continued: "Whatever he does." George, this is a living man, a living man with hot blood and fragrant flesh! They must not be far away, so why should we just let him go? ”
Although the quality of his voice is different from ordinary people, anyone who hears his voice can feel a kind of 'drunkenness, fanaticism' emotion, and this monster seems to have an unusual love for big living people.
The shrill voice that was called George seemed to be a lover of living flesh and blood, and he was immediately convinced: "Hmm~ It is indeed a very rare living person, much more delicious than those cold corpses." Since the other party has come to our lips by themselves, if we don't eat it, I'm really sorry for the gift of the gods. ”
"So let's chase it now?" The hoarse voice of the owner immediately said.
"Don't be in a hurry, we have to talk about it first, after catching the living, how to divide it."
"Okay, how do you want to divide it?"
"If you don't follow the old rules, cut it in half from beginning to end, one person and half, I will ...... you left and right"
"No, I'm on the left and you're on the right. A living heart is a very rare and precious thing. I was the first to discover their scent, and my heart should be mine! ”
George, the owner of the shrill voice, was angry and shouted: "Hi ~ Louis, are you itching again, didn't it hurt enough to be beaten by me last time?" ”
The owner of the hoarse voice who was called Louis began to sneer: "George, why do you keep mentioning the past. I'm 40 pounds fatter than I was half a month ago. Do you think you're still my opponent now? ”
"Why don't you try?"
"Try it!"
After a few words, the exit of the tunnel was quiet for about three seconds, and then, the roars of the two monsters suddenly sounded, and after a few seconds of roaring, there was a 'bang bang bang~' fists and claws colliding.
The two monsters started fighting.
Lawson was speechless for a while, and he whispered to Lilith, "You say, will one of these two fools be killed?" ”
Lilith had apparently never seen much of a scoundrel fight: "I don't know, but it seems that they don't have a good brain, and if they go too far, they may have to die before it ends." Why don't we take this opportunity to go back? ”
"Good idea."
Rosen quickly put away his weapon, turned around and picked Lilith up again, walking all the way back in the direction of the previous entrance.
As he walked, he listened intently, paying attention to the battle behind him.
"Bang~Bang~Bang~Bang~"
The sound of fierce battle continued to come, and after about 2 minutes, the hoarse voice roared violently: "Okay, you George, you are so ruthless!" ”
"Aren't you ruthless! Half of my face has been ripped off by you! ”
"It'll grow well if you tear off your face, but you're coming at me in the eyes! Okay, okay, if you don't keep your hand, I don't have any scruples! ”
"Bang Bang ~ Puff Puff ~"
The sound of the battle suddenly became several times more intense, interspersed with a few cries of pain and screams, and after a full five or six minutes of fighting, the shrill voice suddenly let out a terrible scream, and then the underground waterway became silent, except for an unusually heavy panting.
The voice lasted for more than ten seconds, and a hoarse voice sounded: "Bah! With this little ability, you dare to snatch the heart of a living person with me, and you deserve to die! ”
Rosen was dumbfounded.
These two monsters, who were just like brothers, turned their faces and made a move in the blink of an eye, and they also separated life and death. This temperament is really weird.
"Goo~~ Delicious living flesh and blood, I'm here!"
There was a loud swallowing sound from the exit of the corridor, and the sound of hurried footsteps came at the same time, getting closer and closer to Lawson.
"He's catching up, much faster than we are." Lilith's face was full of anxiety.
Rosen heard it better than she did, and in less than half a second, he stopped, put Lilith back in the aisle behind him, and quickly turned around himself, took out his full set of weapons, and prepared to fight.
He also let go, and after killing the monster, he immediately ran back to the entrance along the way he came. If the entrance is blocked, he will force it out, and although it will cause big trouble, it is better than walking through the underground city where the monsters live.
