168 - in both directions
"Boreth! Come out of here! Where are you?! Without a moment's delay, after making sure that the shark-man was dead, he hurried towards the passage and entered it.
The dark passage was filled with the smell of blood, and Veil could smell it, it was the smell of blood and fish.
"Fishman?!" He stopped in a T-shape, and couldn't help but take two steps back, and on the ground, a pile of half-cut corpses of fish-men piled up on the ground.
There were still a number of standing figures standing quietly, alarmed by the sound of Will's footsteps and shouts, and the light of the fire in Will's hand reflected the turning eyes, flashing with leaping flames, and also reflecting the emptiness and emptiness in the fish-man's eyes.
"And?!" Seeing the fish people in front of him, Will's scalp tingled. "So much?"
In the narrow passage, Vere faced so many fishmen alone, even if each of them was only half the strength of the shark man just now, it was impossible for him to pass through here.
"Oops! The Captain and the Captain who were being pursued by these fish-men...... No, I have to help them. Looking at the fish corpses on the ground, Vere guessed that Borreth must have been through a fierce battle. And...... Probably in trouble.
"Fortunately, the passage is narrow, and they can't come once...... I'm Cao! In the firelight, he could clearly see that the fish-men had octopus-like tentacles stretched out from behind them, some of them ran from the ground to Vere, but more of them crawled against the wall towards Vere.
"Fight!" Standing in the tunnel, he knew that if he wanted to win, he would have to use the advantage of his current position.
And thankfully, the monsters didn't show up to disturb him during the fight with the shark-man just now, and, looking at this Spider-Man-like way, Weir was sure that they would crawl into the hole where Ollie and Pease were......
Ver clenched his spear in both hands and stood here, and in front of him were the fishmen crawling from all directions.
Burst! "Huh?!" Puff puff......
Cutting melons and vegetables, the fish-men who look fierce and abnormal have nothing outstanding, and the tentacles behind them only make them able to climb walls, their bodies are fragile, they are not agile in dodging, they have no means of attacking, and the way they fight is just to pounce and bite and scratch.
Veil, who had just fought the shark people, even had the feeling that he was not fighting at all.
Too weak...... These fishmen were so weak compared to the shark people that they were nothing but numbers.
Not even the torch was put down, and in the shaking of the flames, he struck his way into the cavern.
"Boris!" The spear flashed in two directions, and two holes appeared in the skull of the fish-man who leaped from there. "Borreth, where are you? …… It's strange, how did these fishmen become like this? Could it be that Resident Evil broke out after we were gone? …… These tentacles? ……”
The psychological pressure and combat pressure of Weier were greatly reduced, but he did not miss it, while killing the strange fishmen, he ran quickly towards the hole, and he was not afraid to attract those fishmen who were still sluggish in place, and he opened his throat and shouted. "Boris! Where are you? Give me a letter! ”
What is the most informative thing in a dark place?
Light!
Wer walked through the T-junction, and there was no moving thing behind him, as if in response to Will, and out of the corner of his eye, he found a little light in the distance on the side.
"Boris?!" If you can shine such a light in the dark, it must be Boris is infallible! That's what Wille thought, so he thought about that direction.
"I'm going, there are more and more of these fish-people...... Could it be that the whole village was ...... Damn it! I should have thought of it when I saw Ollie and the two of them...... Something must have happened to the Fish-Man Village! As Ver unrelentingly brought the fish-man to death, a worried sympathy rose in his heart.
The light is getting closer, "Boris! Do you hear me?! I'll be here soon! Hold on! ”
——
Boris was not in the direction that Wiel was taking, or rather, at the T-junction, and Vere went the other way.
The light was a deliberate release from Boris in order to lure away the fish-man in front of him, while Weir was grilling the shark-man.
But the fishmen in front of the door didn't move......
"High priest, they are not ......"
"Isn't it useless? This is terrible......" Boris clutched his chest, panting heavily, "the Kraken's poison has not been unraveled...... The more magic I use, the more this thing attacks. ”
"High Priest, let's find another way."
Hierro looked into the room, which looked like a cellar, with barrels and chests stored.
"The road is blocked, let's see if there is any other place to cross......"
"High Priest, look here......"
The place was not large, and Hierro took a few steps inside, and found that there seemed to be something strange on the wall beside him.
A ray of light came from Boris's hand, illuminating Hierro's direction, and Boris walked over with the wooden pillars that supported the room.
"High priest, you see, there are still such lines here." A wicker-like pattern appears on the wall in the light.
Boris reached out and touched it, and saw that the lines were protruding, as if they were embedded in them.
"Could this be? ...... "This thing is exactly the same thing they just came down."
"Yes, it's another portal...... However, I don't know where it leads......"
"Never going back to it...... There are no other doors in this place either. …… High priest, you say, behind this door, will it be the place where the Kraken seals? ”
"Captain Hierro, you haven't forgotten why we're here. What is shown on the map is supposed to be the place where the legendary ship is located...... I think the back of this door should be facing ...... That's right. ”
"Vere, the leaf I gave him......" Boris held out his hand, and a starlight spread into the portal. Captain Hierro, let's go inside, and we should meet Weel. ”
With that, a light gate appeared in the center of the wicker line, and the two of them stepped in, and the light gate dissipated.
At this moment, the shouts of Weir were heard outside the door, and the sound of Weir fighting with the fishmen outside the door.
The light that attracted the fish-man floated farther and farther in the passage opposite the disguised door.
——
Outside the passageway, beside the campfire, in a hole hidden by the wooden wall, Ollie was weakly licking his wounds, and the ice crystals in Pease's chest were gradually melting beside him.
So far, only a thin layer remains, barely sealing the wound.
“…… Cold ......" Pease's lips opened slightly, and a weak voice came out of his mouth.
Ollie trembled and limped to Pease's side, "Hmm...... Wow~" gently rubbed Pease's face with his nose.
Pease's eyes were blue and his lips were pale.
"Cold ......"
Ollie understood, and he wanted to use his tail to keep Pease warm, but he was afraid that the ice crystals on Pease's chest would dissolve at an accelerated rate.
He could only use his tail slightly to cover Pease's involuntarily twitching hand.
"Whew! ~", looking at the firelight outside, hoping that Ver would come back soon.
Pease is about to lose it.
