Chapter 56: The Beast Under the Dungeon
The night breeze is not harsh, but every time it blows, it takes some of the temperature away from the body.
If this is a fantasy, it is too real.
Before leaving the hut, Chu Ge went back inside to investigate, and he didn't find any valid information except for two empty bottles that smelled of blood.
At this moment, the clothes he was wearing were exactly the same as they were before he fell asleep, and although they could not help him much in battle, at least they would not be a burden to him.
If you stop and listen closely, you will find a faint noise hidden in the wind.
It was the sound of something being slammed, and it was quite regular.
Although he had this voice as a cover, Chu Ge still maintained enough vigilance to let his figure blend with the shadows on the side of the street, and his feet were silent, and he was getting closer to the direction of the sound source little by little.
"How the hell do you have to get out of this place? At least someone alive can come out and tell me where this is......"
"It doesn't look like the result of being maliciously eroded by the Old Gods, at least not what I remember."
Although Chu Ge's expression did not change, his thinking was quickly flipped.
According to his understanding of the dreams of the ancient gods in his previous life, one of the reasons why potential aliens could not get out of their dreams was that dreams often went according to what they expected in their hearts, filling the gaps in their hearts and expanding themselves in the perfect world.
For some people, even if they are drunk to death, they are willing.
Gradually, every time I woke up, it became a kind of torture.
but sorrow, or jealousy, or desire, or hatred...... Malice infiltrates and erodes, constantly distorting and expanding these things, acting as a catalyst for living beings to be swallowed up by the darkness of their hearts.
However, at this moment, Chu Ge's dream was full of doubts and strangeness, and it was not what he imagined at all.
There are no clues, no useful information, and it feels like the most important thing has been stripped away!
"Add, that bastard......"
***
"That little bastard is probably scolding me through the crackdown."
Thinking of what might be happening in the manor at this moment, the smile on the magistrate's face became more and more sincere.
He sat up from the bed with his upper body bare, and after extinguishing the long match in his hand, he put the small mouth of his pipe to his mouth and inhaled gently, with a look of satisfaction on his face.
"What's the matter, is there anything to be happy about?"
Looking at the smile on Eddie's face, Petra lay on the bed with one hand on her chin and pulled her loose hair behind her ear, her eyes full of flattery.
"It's nothing, it's just that the thought of a little bastard who has a hard time to eat and I can still enjoy life with you here is really pleasant."
Add leaned sideways, leaning back on the pillow, squinting and spitting into the clouds.
"What a bad guy."
Petra leaned forward, pillowed on Add's arm, drew circles on the governor's chest with her white index finger, closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.
Needless to say, she also knew who the little bastard in the other party's mouth was.
Add gently extinguishes the hanging lamp, leaving only a little spark burning in the long darkness.
"Sorge has left enough inspiration, and if he can't even do that to that extent, it can only be said that he really doesn't have the talent for it."
***
It is a small town located on a mountainside, and you can feel a slight slope with every step of the street, and the houses have a different cascading sense due to the difference in terrain.
The architectural style of the street is markedly different from Midgar in the details, and each house has a small window on the door.
Chu Ge tried to open it a few times, but each house was locked tightly, and without any tools, he had to rely on violence to break the door, but now was obviously not the time to do so.
It is worth mentioning that it is very easy to see blood stains on the streets of the town, and Chu Ge found it three times just after walking for such a short while.
The blood stains had not dried up completely, and they looked extraordinarily viscous, as if they were venting the madness beneath the tranquility.
As time passed, the sound of the impact was getting closer and clearer.
In the end, Chu Ge stopped in front of an open workshop.
Listening to the huge crashing sound coming from the depths, Chu Ge took a deep breath, and was about to walk in when he suddenly noticed several narrow dents that appeared on the door frame.
It looked like it had been slashed by some kind of sharp weapon—if these scratches weren't parallel to each other, Chu Ge would definitely judge it like this.
It is the marks left by the claws of some kind of creature.
After carefully examining the length and depth of the dent, Chu Ge glanced at the rusty one-handed sword in his hand and his torso, which was not covered by any armor, as if there was some kind of meaningless comparison.
"That's a huge gap...... Hopefully, digitization will also take effect here. ”
He sighed helplessly, if he left like this, he would probably have to run around like a headless fly, not knowing when he would find new clues.
The only thing to be thankful for is that there are a lot of wall lamps hanging in this workshop, at least in terms of sight.
After entering, Chu Ge realized that this was not so much a workshop as a private clinic or a medical laboratory, because the things inside were really out of place with the atmosphere of this town.
Tweezers, holders, vials, rubber tubes, large scalpels, and even fully automatic syringes for veterinary use...... This can't help but be reminiscent of some mad scientists.
After stepping over the glass shards on the ground, Chu Ge cautiously dived into it, but he soon realized that it was useless, because the crashing sound came from a dungeon.
Standing in front of the staircase leading to the bottom, Chu Ge could see the strange light and shadow that kept shaking on the wall at the end, and the low howl mixed with the impact.
Clenching the iron sword in his hand, Chu Ge slowly walked down against the inner layer of the wall, and finally, the owner of those voices appeared in his sight.
At the same time, he also understood how the strange light and shadow were formed.
A beast in an iron cage, or a monster, just looks terrible.
The back covered in black hair kept crashing towards the iron cage, because of the light, Chu Ge couldn't see its face clearly, but he could guess that the face that was shrouded in shadows and dark must be full of hideousness!
Under the restraint of the iron cage, the impact not only did not cause much damage to this monster, but instead fully stimulated its ferocity!
The secret observation didn't last long, because Chu Ge quickly realized the seriousness of the problem!
