Chapter 86: Underground Monsters
Dr. Grant stepped forward again, and he walked over to a fisherman who was sitting on the ground, shaking his head.
"Some time ago, Albert Sloegmorton died unexpectedly, and he was one of the people who picked up Albert by the sea in the first place." According to Dr. Grant, "After the incident, these participants were still sane, but after a short period of time, they had a mental breakdown......
As he spoke, Grant found another bottle of potion out of nowhere, and he unplugged it, crept up to the fisherman, and poured it into it.
The fisherman did not resist and drank obediently.
"It seems that the cause of the mental breakdown of this group of poor people has been found," Li Zu said teasingly.
The fisherman's reaction to the potion was not intense, his spirit had collapsed, and he could not be more abnormal if he saw any kind of vision.
"It seems that the effect of medicine is probably repulsive to the human body," Dr. Grant took out a small notebook out of nowhere and wrote down his observation log of pharmaceutical experiments.
I believe that this observation log does not contain any reference value while maintaining wonderful content.
For two minutes, scribbled notes filled the page like wavy lines, before Dr. Grant put away his pen.
"After the floods in Oakmont, the largest mall closed down, and there was a robber who tried to go in and steal something, but the theft ran into a bit of a ...... Trouble" Doctor Grant turned his head and stared at Li Zu with bloodshot scorched pupils: "He encountered a huge sea monster and didn't survive it, but the problem is that the doors and windows of that building are locked, how did such a big monster get in?" ”
At Oakmont, everyone is weird enough.
The clues brought by those who are curious about the unknown are what Li Zu needs most to explore this world.
Dr. Grant is a curious person on the verge of madness.
"The police haven't been able to go in and have a look?"
The anecdotal news can arouse people's curiosity even more, but it is Reed's "mirror story", which makes people drowsy, he just knows that Reed's case is related to the White Ape family.
"...... police, that place is too weird, it's hard for a pistol to work" Dr. Grant's expression also said it all, the police were reluctant to wade into muddy waters, especially after the great flood, when monsters were frequent.
He stared at Li Zu: "Only you can!" ”
That night, Li Zu left a deep impression on him.
No one wants to wade into troubled waters without enough chips, but Li Zu has a reason why he has to go.
"Restaurant, restaurant~" The old woman with a hunched waist came over and squeezed into the conversation between the two, and when the eyes of both were focused on her, she only made a "hey, hey, hey" sound, and her shriveled smile was even more terrifying.
Cloudy eyes, no focus, and no connection to a smile.
Presumably all she had left in her mind was madness.
The old woman walked away slowly, her mouth shattered.
Dr. Grant answered, nodding.
"Yes, there is a restaurant that is frightening, of course, not because of how bad the food is, but because none of the women who went there came back. And inside the police were unable to find anything. She was connected to one of the missing girls, and what she told me when she was still conscious was even more bizarre was that there was a jumping monster there. Dr. Grant didn't seem to want to talk about it.
Perhaps it seemed to him that these words were full of loopholes, how could an old woman dodge the monster that could jump and come to him unscathed?
Even if she is an old woman, she is a woman, and she should not have walked back.
"If you have time, you can also go and see" listens to the tone, which he doesn't recommend.
Li Zu was drowsy with long sentences with a distinctly British accent, and he only woke up when he heard the key information.
"Uh-huh, monster!"
Dr. Grant was very busy, he had a lot of potions hidden on him, including stethoscopes, thermometers, etc., and the whole nursing home became his biggest experimental site.
Li Zu walked to the second floor, and in the corridor, a man in a white coat was casually graffiti on the wall.
It was a massive, black, unidentified lumpy mass that resembled a surging solid black cloud.
There was an indescribable thing with goat horns, but it could not be described in words, and he just wanted to ask what it was.
"Bruce! Bruce!! Downstairs came Charles Reed's shout: "Come to the basement!" ”
Hearing Reed's shout, Li Zu had to turn around and leave.
basement
After turning the staircase, there is a huge crater that connects to the unknown black space.
These two have become a must-have in almost every home in Oakmont.
The basement of the nursing home also houses the beds.
When Li Zu rushed downstairs, he saw Reed squatting on the ground and frowning and thinking.
He used that ability again, and after a few seconds, Reed stood up with a faint blue light in his eyes.
He leaned sideways in the doorway, eavesdropping on something, then he pushed it open and dodged to the side, as if something had rushed out and nearly knocked him down.
"She's talking about the mirror, kid...... Her child is dead, the soul is trapped in the mirror, and there is a way to save the soul in the mirror and bring the child back to life...... That's why she managed to take the mirror that Robert Sloegmorton wanted. ”
Reid muttered to himself.
"She rushed out and knocked down a nurse."
He has the ability to see the scene of the crime based on evidence, and the investigation is almost invincible.
Waking up from his peculiar state, Reed shook a little, and held on to the wall for a long time before calming down.
"Let's go find her!"
"Who?" Li Zu pulled his legs and followed Reed.
"A mother who has gone crazy for her children."
……
Two outlanders run down the streets of Oakmont.
Walk through the sunset streets of Oakmont and the bewildered gazes of the town's residents.
"Whoa, whoop......" Reed had to stop and rest when he ran out of energy.
He turned around, only to find that the figure had been lost from his side again.
"Bastard Bruce Wayne! I knew it! ”
……
At this time, Li Zu had already stopped in front of a building.
Three storeys high.
The sign "Oakmont's largest mall, welcome" successfully held him back.
Residents of the neighborhood have moved away, and not even a pedestrian can be seen on the street next to the mall.
Under the sunset, the elongated shadow connects Li Zu and the gate of the mall.
"Roar! Roar! Roar! ”
Boom, boom, and roar.
"Looks like we're going to be in big trouble"
Li Zu stood at the door, and the setting sun pulled his shadow from the diagonal to the northeast, slowly moving due east.
The wooden box fell from the sky, and Li Zu bent down to pick up something before pushing open the door and walking in.
The first floor without decoration,
Hand-welded metal shelves are bagged food that has been soaked in floodwaters.
The toast that has stored water has grown and moldy.
As soon as he took the first step, Li Zu stopped.
He lowered his head and looked at his feet.
A puddle of yellow, viscous liquid with a strange fishy smell, and when you lift your foot, the yellow liquid sticking to the sole of your shoe will be stringed.
"Roar! Oh!! ”
It seemed that Li Zu's uninvited disturbed the "original owner", and the roar became more ferocious, and the floor began to vibrate.
The thing was downstairs, but in order to avoid those little monsters, Li Zu chose to check the upper floor first.
On the second floor is the furniture area.
With a complete range of goods, it is worthy of the largest mall in Oakmont.
After checking it out, Li Zu's gaze was once again locked on the entrance of the basement floor.
Bang!
He didn't go downstairs, and the huge fat figure, like a jumping frog, had already jumped out of the basement and pounced.
The ground was slammed into the ground, and the shelves on the first floor were crushed.
The underground "sea monster" also revealed its true face, which was very similar to the monster in Li Zu's dream.
Stacked flesh makes up the torso.
Multi-legged, multi-handed.
Only a human head grows.
