Xia Ren raised his head, his eyes wide open.

He clearly remembered, wasn't that book hidden in his clothes? Why did it appear in the hands of that old man?

Natsuhito reached into his cloak and fumbled,

The result is empty.

Not only the one in the old man's hand, but also the "Laleye Text" and "The King in Yellow" disappeared together, and they disappeared without knowing where to go.

"When the hell is ......?"

When the old man and Yu Chen left together?

Or when you follow the team yourself?

Or did you never own them in the first place?

Xia Ren couldn't help but have countless suspicions in his heart.

The town that no one knows about is not far from Arkham City, the large number of graveyards on the road leading to the town, the empty and dead streets, the strange old men who guide them, the strange food they bring, the silent townspeople, the snow in front of the roads and churches, and the absurd and terrifying shoe rituals at this moment!

Everything was like a weird nightmare, full of unreality.

He couldn't tell if the town really existed, and he couldn't tell if what he had experienced tonight was all imagination.

You must know that in the last scene where you appeared on the beach, he had just escaped from the mental hospital with the man named Mu Susu!

Xia Ren felt that his sanity had reached the limit, and he was about to go crazy!

None of the residents of the surrounding towns paid attention to Natsuhito's state, and when the old man held the book above his head, everyone groveled to the ground as a sign of reverence.

Xia Ren's brain was still in chaos, but his body also knelt down with the crowd.

Suddenly, the beating enemy who was far away from the pillar of flames no longer hummed in a low voice, but raised its pitch and played loudly.

The sharp turn of the tone made people suddenly frightened, and Xia Ren's body pressed even lower, and his hands almost sank in the soft earth, even the maggots climbed up his face.

The source of this fear does not belong to this dark world, not even to the entire blue star, but only to the strange space where the stars shine.

He came from the universe!

The spurt of the pillar of flame reached a peak, then came to an abrupt halt without warning.

Then came the unimaginable darkness.

The greasy river flowed by, rolling up the waves, and then the darkness lit up with spores released by the giant umbrella fungus.

Although the light of the spores was far less than that of the pillar of flames, it could barely make out the outline of this space.

Suddenly, with a rhythmic sound of flapping wings, a group of alien creatures flew out of the distant darkness, they had wings, but they did not look like birds, normal human eyes could not see all of them, normal human brains could not remember all of them, these things were not crows, not moles, not vultures, not ants, not bats, not rotting human corpses, they could not be named, they could not be described.

Xia Ren suddenly realized that the caves he saw all the way just now were most likely the lairs of these creatures!

Their wings, webbed and fascia, fly limply forward.

As they flew into the ritual, cloaked townsfolk grabbed their paws and leaped onto them, riding one by one on the unknown creature, along the dark, but uneven edge of the river into the deep, dark corridor.

There, wicked streams converge into an unexplored waterfall of astonishing proportions!

This waterfall is one of the places where the river passes, but Xia Ren didn't even notice it just now, because this waterfall with a vertical drop of hundreds of meters didn't make the slightest sound!

Suddenly, one of the flying creatures let out a terrible and piercing chirp and pounced straight in Xia Ren's direction.

All the future and the townspeople who had left on flying creatures turned their heads in unison, the eyes under the cloak staring at him indifferently.

"Oops, exposed!"

Great fear pressed on Xia Ren, he knew that he could not continue to hide no matter what, so he turned around and ran in the direction he came.

"Crooked than crooked!"

He shouted at the top of his voice, but the entire space echoed only his shout, and Yu Chen's response was not there.

"Damn it!"

The old man followed Aftermath, who had probably left one of the first to board the flying creatures.

Xia Ren didn't wait any longer and ran faster.

With every step, the soles of his feet would sink into the soft earth, trampling on a large number of maggots, but no matter how many they were trampled on, it was not enough to affect their numbers, because the whole space was filled with this thing, and he couldn't imagine why there was so much filth in such a deep underground, and he didn't have time to think about it at this time.

The two townsfolk chased after them, while the rest continued to ride away in the flying creatures, perhaps in their eyes, an ordinary human was not worth their attention at all.

Xia Ren was already running fast, and even he himself was amazed that in the midst of extreme fear, his body could maintain such full vitality and solid coordination, as if it was being manipulated by someone else.

But the two townspeople are faster, and the distance between the two is rapidly being narrowed.

Xia Ren glanced back, almost scared out.

They're not running on two legs like they are at all!

Under the quaint cloak, two white, thick and fat tails stretched out, like the tail of a python, but they were far less long than the snake's tail, and the way of swinging was not from side to side, but from front to back.

It's like ......

Xia Ren glanced down at his feet.

In an instant, he understood why there were so many maggots here, why they were so sparse and soft to the touch when they inadvertently collided with others, and why there were no footprints on the snow.

"Because the townspeople don't have feet at all, and their lower bodies are maggots!

They are - maggots! ”

This kind of body structure has a huge advantage in the soft ground underground, and it is simply impossible for me to run past them with a pair of legs!

Just when Xia Ren realized this, his ears suddenly tingled.

He heard two loud roars behind him.

"Huh————"

It was more like the sound of a human throat than the whistling sound of a rapid air current passing through a crooked pipe.

No wonder the old man pretended to be mute, because their vocal organs were simply not enough to support them in producing complex syllables!

"Huh————"

The roar was getting closer and closer, and if it went on like this, it wouldn't take him half a minute to catch up.

"What to do!"

Without companion support and complex terrain, you won't be able to turn back.

In the darkness, his feet softened, causing him to stagger a little.

The already life-and-death situation is even worse because of this mistake!
