Chapter 279: Fluorescence

The first bullet shattered the skull, and it hung motionless on the wall as if it were about to evaporate, until its pale body was a shriveled lump of flesh, leaving only two twisted arms hanging in the air

A sudden loud bang quickly reverberated through the vast space, and the flower boards seemed to follow the rhythm of the echo in waves, and the slugs awoke from their dormant slumber and fell like peeling stones, almost filling the road around Langlano.

One of them almost smashed on top of him, splashing bright green slime the moment it landed, and the two pairs of eyes stood up like threads, and after confirming its surroundings, it quickly stared at Langlano and stretched out its arms in pain to grab the prey in front of it.

Draenor quickly slipped a molten silver bullet into the magazine, and was about to pull the trigger again.

"Don't shoot!"

Lopud's warning overwhelmed him, and behind him was the only way out of here, but it was already full of metal barrels filled with "black water", and continuing to fire was tantamount to wanting to die with these Yazira who had turned into slugs!

"Boom!"

The butt of the gun slammed against the slug's body with a dull sound, and the soft muscles quickly absorbed the impact on it, and the sunken skin returned to its original state the moment Draenor drew the gun back.

He didn't have time to draw his greatsword to finish off the monster, because it had merged into the waves of giant slugs, and nothing could stop them from wriggling wildly.

It was originally a huge hemispherical space, and apart from the gate that Langlano had passed through before, there was only a metal arch leading to the unknown area, which was where the exorcist and Michelle were now standing.

But in just a dozen seconds, everything that could be seen by the naked eye was completely engulfed by pale flesh, and the bright green patches on their skin began to flicker one after another, forming a maddening sea of stars.

Draenor couldn't hear what Errandi was shouting from Errandi, who was standing at the gate, and those slugs had completely surrounded him, and only then did he suddenly realize that the distance of twenty meters was so far away. The slime-coated ground was like a whale's slippery esophagus, and no matter how hard he ran, he could only move slowly by inertia.

"Mr. Delaenau! Keep your head down!! ”

This time, he finally heard the familiar voice, and the strong desire to survive made him crouch down, and then, something flashed overhead, and the painful screams of mollusks came from behind him.

When he looked up again, he saw that the slug closest to him had curled up its upper body and made an offensive stance, but a wooden stake pierced it and nailed it alive, and the fluorescence of the patches on his skin gradually receded.

"Hurry up!"

Someone rushed forward desperately and grabbed his arm, and the extraordinary warmth reminded him of the other person's name for the first time.

Jeanne ......

"It's me, and Leonia, we're all good. Don't worry about that, we're getting out of here! ”

Jeanne's eyes were much firmer than before, and with four or five arm-thick stakes behind her, she pulled Draenor and ran almost sliding towards the remaining three.

The moment he passed through the metal gate, the third floor of the Tower of Babel suddenly shrank into a corridor, the stone doors on the left and right sides were completely sealed by the collapsed walls, and the metal barrels filled with black water were scattered on the ground.

"What are you doing!? Why did you leave the team without permission! ”

Michelle roared angrily and rushed over with the exorcist, inconvenient to attack the slugs that kept coming.

"We won't last long, Jeanne!"

Michelle's hand axe swung in the air, the splashes of bright green liquid almost completely covering the original skin color of his arm.

"At the other end of this corridor is the gate to the fourth floor, we've been here before, come with me!" Jeanne turned her head and shouted to the crowd.

In desperation, at the moment when Lopud swung his silver whip to shred the slugs, Michelle used all his strength to lift a cracked stone slab to block the door in front of him, and ran to the other end of the corridor with the exorcist.

Jeanne...... How did you two find us? Draenor asked, holding his knee breathlessly.

"Thanks to Mr. Michelle's loud voice, we were already around here, and we rushed over to meet the voice." Jeanne patted Leonia's head lightly and pulled out a sharpened stake from behind her, "This is Leonia's idea, although such a weapon is a bit rudimentary, but at least it is enough to deal with those slugs." ”

Draenor noticed Leonia's distracted gaze, he had never seen Leonid again, but what had happened in front of him had reminded him of the unfortunate truth.

"I'm glad to see you're safe and sound, and the next thing is to find a way to open this door." Lopud walked directly in front of the metal door and tried to turn the rusty doorknob, but the thing didn't respond like a boulder.

"Brother...... Brothers...... I don't feel good......"

Michelle said as he lifted his mucus-wrapped arm, his thick muscles almost exposed to the air, and the cyan veins curled up into fragile black lines like fuses at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the mere movement of his fingers completely shattered it and fell to the ground.

"Draenor! Stick to his arm! Lopud hurriedly pulled the suitcase open, pulled out the syringe he had used on Draenor and stabbed Michelle in the neck.

Draenor wrapped his hands tightly around Viking's right arm, and he could feel Michelle's muscles trembling incessantly, and the bright red tissue became as transparent as jelly, showing signs of turning into a mollusk!

"Useless? Why didn't the potion work!? He was sure that the potion had been injected into Michelle's body, but the irreversible process of change continued, and in the blink of an eye, Michelle's right arm was already hanging from Lin like a part of a slug's body.

"The agent is able to kill the fungus, but it cannot stop the process of assimilation...... I'm afraid that the blood of those slugs will corrode everything they touch. ”

"Corrosion?" Draenor was amazed by the exorcist's words, and he subconsciously looked to the other end of the hallway, only to see the huge stone slab lying on the rain as if it had melted, and strange soft creatures were crawling frantically towards it.

"Take Michelle with you, you go first!"

Lopud put away the crate and kicked off the doorknob with his leg, opening the door for Draenor and the Vikings.

"No, I have to stay." A delirious Michelle looked up and chuckled.

The tide of slugs was approaching, and Draenor didn't have time to react to Michelle's nonsense, just dragged his body towards the gate with all his might.

"Didn't you hear me!? Get lost!!! Michelle struggled to turn, her left hand gripped Lenlano's collar.

"I will baptize you with blood, and make you all Yazrao!"

The right arm, which had turned into a tentacle, twitched, as if trying to wrap itself tightly around Rao's throat.

"Ah!!!h

Leonia screamed, and Jeanne quickly pulled her aside, avoiding the twisted tentacles.

"Assimilation has begun...... Lopud whispered, desperately pushing Jeanne and Leonia through the door, "Draenor! He's not human anymore, we need to get out of here! ”

"Michelle ......"

Draenor finally let go of his arm, looked into Michelle's cloudy eyes, and walked through the iron door in despair.

As he left the hallway, a powerful force suddenly closed the iron door tightly, and he thought that those slugs had completely occupied the third floor of the Tower of Babel and engulfed Michelle's body......

"Killing ......"

He gritted his teeth and cursed, and ran up the stairs like mad, forcing himself not to look back again.

"Here, it seems that I really believe it......"

Michelle leaned against the iron door, looking at the empty flower board, and a smile of relief appeared on his face when he heard the footsteps that were fading away.

He knew that the iron door behind him couldn't stop the slugs, they would slowly corrode the door with bodily fluids, and it was only a matter of time before they caught up with Draenor.

"But then again, you've always had such a good thing on you......"

With a shudder, he raised his left hand and put a cigar to his mouth.

"Smoking is bad for your health, but I haven't tasted it in almost a decade." With great effort, he pulled a match from his bosom and lit his cigar as he kicked the metal barrel to the ground.

The flame of the cigarette butt flickered slightly with the rhythm of breathing, resonating with the fluorescence that was gradually approaching him. The brainless creatures craved for his blood and body, and they seemed to know that there was still the last shred of reason left in the Rao's mind, and they tried to burn his soul with that ominous light.

"Goo...... Gollum ......"

"Call it! The sound is not loud enough! Didn't you eat!? ”

Michelle laughed wildly, raised her head and spat out two smoke rings, one through the other, and gradually disappeared into Kongzheng

He said his last goodbye to his remembered hometown, flicking his cigar into the barrel of black liquid before he began to regret it.

"Wake up, brutes! Satan is beckoning to you! ”
