Volume 1 Edge Chapter 16 Weird
Chapter 16 Weird
The night is already deep, and from dusk onwards, the temperature around you begins to get lower and lower, until you can't help but get goosebumps.
Kylo and Aitch built a fire, listening to the crackling of firewood in the fire, and chatting with each other to ward off the growing sleepiness.
"They say that there are many mosquitoes in the mountains, but I don't see a single one here. Aitch surveyed his surroundings, "It's strange that there wasn't even a cricket." ”
Aitch said, of course Kylo also discovered, and he was the first to notice these, when he first walked into this valley, he found that there was no bird chirping here, which is too strange for a valley, but Kylo did not feel afraid, for this abnormal phenomenon, he instead had the desire to explore, has been nesting in the academy to live a peaceful or boring life, a day or two, Kylo is still very enjoyable, but after a long time, Kylo is a little bored, but a little nostalgic for the previous kind of wandering, It's the day of fighting and killing, and when he thinks of this, Kylo can't help but smile bitterly in his heart, it seems that he is really cheap!
Kylo added some fresh wood to the fire, and teased the flames with the stick in his hand, the flames dancing softly, and the light of the fire tugged at Kylo's shadow.
Kylo replied softly, "It's a little weird, no, it's weird! ”
Aiqi smiled bitterly: "It's really worth the trip, Lore's eyes are starting to shine, I can't wait to rush into the ruins to have a look!"
Kylo thought about Lore's expression at that time, and couldn't help laughing: "With her character, if she had been allowed to come alone, it is estimated that she would have rushed in a long time ago!"
Ai Qi nodded approvingly, looked at the village with some confusion for a while, and said: "This village is so weird, I sleep during the day, and I haven't seen a second person until now, and I haven't seen any lights at night!"
Kylo also looked up at the village, every house was dark, if it was placed in an ordinary village, it would be normal, but this village has not seen anyone since noon, until now, like an empty uninhabited village, the only old man he saw was strange and frightening.
At this moment, the door of a room in the distance slowly opened, and Kylo squinted his eyes to see that a thin figure who could not tell whether it was a man or a woman swayed out, and then, the sound of "squeak, squeak" opened the door, and every house in the village opened the door, and one by one the figures swayed onto the street.
The villagers slept at noon, did not turn on the lights in the middle of the night, went out in the dark, and did not even say hello to each other, and were as quiet as a pantomime.
This scene fell in the eyes of Kylo and Edge, it was full of weirdness, the two looked at each other and smiled bitterly, Edge's said: "I knew that I should follow Lore's meaning, and enter the ruins during the day!"
Halfway through the night, the moon in the sky seemed to be covered with a thin veil, and the faint moonlight came through the veil, illuminating the village in fog.
Every household in the village was now like an appointment, and the squeaky sound of the door opening came and went, playing strange music together, and the villagers in the house staggered out of the door and onto the street, and the shadows were pulled by the hazy moonlight.
Kylo and Aitch couldn't help but feel furious in their hearts, such a strange thing happened, they must not be allowed to sleep like this again, the two glanced at each other, quickly got up, slapped the two tents, and called Lore and them.
Lore was the most alert, and immediately got up and walked out of the tent, and when he saw the strange scene in the village, he couldn't help frowning, but his eyes couldn't help but show a little excitement.
Leah was the second to get up, came to this place where ghosts could be encountered, entered a village with a cold breath that went straight to the bone marrow, met an old man with a terrifying face like a ghost, and was looked at by the old man with gloomy eyes and said a sentence with an unclear meaning but made the hairs stand on end, Leah's spirit has always been in a high degree of tension, after lying down, she couldn't sleep for a long time, tossing and turning, and barely fell asleep in the middle of the night, and it was even more difficult to endure in the dream, dreaming that she was surrounded by a group of ghosts, and when she was about to cry, she was just woken up by Kylo, and before she could breathe a sigh of relief, she walked out of the tent and saw a scene similar to that in her dream, Leah's legs suddenly went limp.
The third to wake up was Nolans, who was not very afraid, and slept soundly alone, when he was called, rubbed his eyes, and walked out of the tent to see the shadow and longing figure in the village, and he was also a spirit, and his sleepiness disappeared.
"What's going on?is it going to be a party?" Nolans looked at the drunken villagers in amazement, and his mind went blank for a moment.
"You can ask them, and maybe even have a late-night snack. Kylo pinched his cold fingers and said lightly, "If they don't treat you as a supper." ”
Aitch looked closely at the distribution of the crowd and felt that something was wrong: "Do you think they seem to be looking for something?"
"It seems so. Kailo's tone was very calm, and when he saw such a scene at the beginning of the year, Kailo couldn't help but increase his vigilance, but the strange thing was that he put his perception to the maximum, but he didn't find the fluctuation of magical force, and these strange figures almost couldn't feel the breath of a living person.
Lore was not afraid at all, on the contrary, she also felt that these guys' movements were too slow, and it was really not in line with Lore's character to stand and wait like this, Lore stretched out his right hand, his index finger and middle finger were intertwined, and he snapped his fingers, and a bright fireball instantly condensed on Lore's fingertips, Lore smiled lightly, and simply bounced the fireball out, in the direction of the crowd on the street.
Lore's magic control ability is very good, before figuring out the situation, she doesn't want to hurt people casually, the fireball exploded over the crowd very accurately, a moment of light, the village was reflected in detail, and the movements of those shadows were obvious, and then they looked into the air in unison.
Lore and the others had good eyes, and the black-rimmed glasses that Kylo was wearing were just decorations for pretending to be a gesture, so when the light appeared, the images of those villagers were all carefully watched.
It is no wonder that there are no men or women who can be seen only by looking at their figures, and the clothes on their bodies show a sense of dilapidation, and the most eye-catching thing is their faces, if that can be called faces.
The faces are obviously different, but they are extremely similar, they can only be described as weird, the facial features are seriously disproportionate, the eyes are squeezed into a slit, the nose is only a point left, only one mouth is infinitely magnified, grinning to the root of the ear, the proportion occupies half of the face, what is terrible is that the teeth in the grinning mouth are so sharp and sharp, just looking at it makes the disgusting saliva flow.
Seeing this scene, everyone felt a little creepy, and a little upright, Leah hid behind Lore, secretly exposed half of her head, glanced at the crowd, and suddenly screamed in fright, and the sound resounded throughout the night sky.
The group of terrifying villagers froze, and then turned their faces in the direction of Lore and the others, and the eyes that were only left suddenly flashed with an inexplicable red light, and I don't know that a roar came from that direction, and this group of zombie-like guys seemed to have received an order, and began to run towards Lore and the others.
The reason why I use running words is because it is a fact. This group of figures was still walking step by step just now, and now they are all like taking stimulants, the speed is amazing, fortunately, there are many people and the alley is narrow, and it will be a little crowded for a while, only a few scattered rushed to the front of Lore and a few people.
"Nolans, are they still alive?" asked Lore abruptly back.
Nolans was stunned for a moment, then recited the incantation, and a bright ring of life flew out and circled a villager, the aura gradually dimmed, but it did not disappear completely.
"I'm still alive, but my vitality is a little low. ”
"Then don't kill!" Lore summoned a flaming whip and flicked it right in the ankle of the first man, tripping him to the ground. Lore mastered the subtlety of his magic so well that the man's clothes didn't burn.
Aiqi pulled out his double swords with a "poof" behind his back, and was about to make a move, when he heard Luoer's words, he paused slightly, and then rushed to several figures with a step, only to see that a sword shot a few people out, but it didn't hurt anyone.
Lore was still excited about the unknown danger, but now she was a little hesitant, because she was not sure whether these villagers had really turned into inhuman, or if they had been manipulated by some evil secret method, and she was a little undecided for a while.
Kylo was the calmest of all, and while he used his fingers to pluck his ears, which were a little numb from Leah's screams, he said calmly, "What are you still hesitating about?
"Then you can't just kill them, right?" Although Lore inherited his father's military style since childhood, he still has some resistance to killing people.
Kylo tugged at the corners of his mouth, that group of monster-like villagers were obviously not good, even if it was really a group of innocent living villagers who rushed over, so what? Lore's hesitation, Kylo saw it in his eyes, but he was very disapproving, but what he said was a completely different word: "Then there is no way, if you don't want to do it, just retreat." ”
The resting place of a few people was at the end of the village, and after that, they had to enter the valley, that is, enter the ruins.
The group of villagers who looked like people and ghosts obviously lost their minds, and they only knew that they were swarming forward, and most of them were squeezed together, and occasionally a few rushed over were easily solved by Lore, but Lore ordered not to hurt anyone, even if there were only a few, it was annoying over and over again, and Kailo's brows were furrowed more and more, and he couldn't help but add a little bit of strength between his shots, and all the people who were beaten by him broke their feet and couldn't get up, but this group of difficult guys was crawling and trying to come over desperately to bite everyone.
Lore frowned slightly when he saw Kylo's move, but he didn't say anything.
At this moment, the roar that came from nowhere sounded again, and the villagers who were huddled together suddenly stopped, and the next action was actually orderly, and suddenly several people faced more people.
Lore gritted her teeth, and knew that there was no way to go on like this, could she just hold on until dawn? She looked back at the dark valley of ruins, and then at the crowd coming in the distance, and finally made a decision:
"Retreat into the ruins!"
After saying that, he flew a few guys in front of him again, and pulled Leah to run towards the ruins, and when Aitch saw this, he also pulled Nolans and left.
Kylo walked at the end, seeing that the nasty guy behind him was still following closely, his anger suddenly rose, and he waved a few blue lights spilled out, and the four of Loel were in front, so he didn't see this Mu, and naturally he didn't see it, and the few figures who were hit by the blue light never stood up again, and were trampled by the crowd behind.
