Life is better than death

"A living spirit?"

William, barely able to move, heard such a voice.

Then, he felt as if his body was being burned by something, and it was very uncomfortable.

Confused, he quickly fainted in pain. When he regained consciousness, he found himself in a poorly lit place.

Although he has no sense of smell, he can't smell what it smells like.

But he's not blind, and the messy environment with blood stains everywhere makes it hard for him not to think about starting something.

Struggling to get up from the corner, William was surprised to find that his body had become heavier. And, he soon discovers an even more astonishing fact, he actually has a body.

Trying to raise his hands in front of him, these very unfamiliar arms were undoubtedly not his own.

In fact, not only his arms, but even the visual height difference can make him a little uncomfortable. After all, he had certainly never experienced such a 'superior' feeling before.

After getting acquainted with his 'new body' for a while, William had a clear idea that he was now mostly in a scrapped modified human body.

Because from the moment his hands touched his head and body, he realized it.

In order to make himself feel better, he didn't even want to delve into what was under the metal armor on his stomach.

Taking a tentative step, William stumbled. He didn't feel any pain, he just felt clumsy, like a child who couldn't walk.

After spending a little more time learning to walk, William carefully walked with heavy steps, holding his height of more than 1.9 meters, towards a more filthy area.

Small pits resembling stagnant water began to appear on the ground, and in some cases worm-infested neighbors could even be seen floating on the water.

Striding over the 'dangerous areas', William saw a large number of corpses of reformed people. The total number of these transfigurants is almost in the hundreds, and they are all scattered and piled up in various corners, as if they have been abandoned here.

Skipping the more frightening part, William saw the image that he was very concerned about. Directly in front of him, there was a row of cells in the shape of a staircase. The door to the cell was open, and if you looked closely, you could still see a figure moving around.

It was a wonderful thing for William to be able to see living people in such a place.

He didn't even realize how 'prominent' his current appearance was, so he walked straight over.

After a rather strenuous climb, he was greeted by a pair of red eyes that nearly caused him to roll down the steps.

When he looked closely, he saw that they were actually parts of a broken metal head.

To be reasonable, although it seems that there is no threat to him, it is still quite scary. Especially since he already has a physical body, in case he goes out of business, it will naturally be the best.

William had a slight expectation of the 'vicious' thoughts of the second half of his life, which he hadn't expected himself.

Looking around, he noticed that the figure he had seen below had vanished.

Looking at the empty cell, William sighed. Turning to look at the steps as high as a dozen floors, he suddenly had a very bold idea at this moment.

Now that you've regained your body, why don't you be as relieved as you were last time?

So, he took it for granted and jumped straight down. He was a little thrilled to think that he would be able to live in such a 'free' way in a few minutes.

However, something tragic happened.

When his hands and feet made an intimate contact with the ground, when his hands and feet were completely devoid of touch, when he realized that his hands and feet were folding in a very twisted position. When he was conscious, he realized that someone had done 'hands and feet' on this body. Just like the last time he was a bird, someone knew his secret and used the same spell to bind him inside the body.

Obviously, he was faced with the same difficult problem as he had at the beginning, that is, it was impossible for him to kill himself, and that was the saddest part.

The thought of his being alone and motionless in this dilapidated prison awaiting the decay of his body made him regret more and more why he had to be honest with the priests.

Now that I think about it, maybe I really deserve it! ’

William laughed at himself and gave up.

At that moment, someone suddenly moved him a little block and said to him, "Either I'm crazy or you're not normal than me." Anyway, today is your lucky day, I see you pitiful and want to help you. ”

"Really? Wait, are you called Walnut? ”

William, who heard the voice, wanted to turn his head, but unfortunately his head was fixed by metal parts and could not force a 360-degree turn.

"How do you know my name?"

Walnut turned him over in a little surprise and asked.

"Of course I do... Well... I also know you have a girlfriend named Peanut. ”

William, with the help of walnuts, leaned against a nearby stone and said.

"I know a lot, I didn't know that a freak like you could have such a smart mind. The technological development here can be described as scary. ”

Walnut stared at William's chest very vigilantly, and could tell that he knew what was inside.

"I'm not a 'freak'. Well, that doesn't sound convincing. I have a request, can you help me? ”

William didn't particularly care why the unfamiliar man in front of him appeared here. He is more selfish and inclined to find a way to save himself.

"It's getting more and more interesting. Peanut said above before, and there's a particularly weird guy down there. After we met, I realized that you are not just weird, you are a fool, right? Is it because those disgusting guys made you like this? That's pathetic. ”

Walnut's words confused William. Fortunately, William is also more sincere, and if he doesn't understand, he won't listen at all.

"Please let me go, okay? You can see what I'm doing now, and I'm really asking you. ”

William, who was biting the theme tightly, made Walnut himself a little puzzled.

"I admit that your injuries are unexpectedly serious. However, I don't think a 'freak' like you would give up his life so easily. Judging from the experience of previous encounters, even if you have only one arm or one leg left, you are bound to attack us. ”

Walnut made his point of view suspiciously.

"I'm different from them, I'm special. You'll find out when you help me. ”

William stressed the importance of repeating himself. This was already a slightly suspicious remark, which aroused Walnut's alarm, and when William noticed this, he found that the other party had run far away, and shouted at him: "If that's the case, then I shouldn't let you die easily, right?" You wait here, I'll call a doctor. ”

"Hell! How did I come across such a strange person? ”

William's aggrieved call did not make the other party respond further. Of course, it must not be ruled out that the other party will not hear at all.

In short, William could only be like a statue, waiting for anyone to approach.
