Chapter 1953: Caught in the Lake (22)

The strong man, who was obviously a bad person, was almost naked, with only a long black rag around his waist, as if he were wearing a black torn skirt.

His dead gray muscles were mottled with black-red blood, and he looked filthy and disgusting. The pectoral muscles vibrated up and down with every step the strong man took, as if to show his brutal and ruthless sheer strength.

His face was completely obscured by a gray-white mask of a goat skull, and two glowing red points of light shot out from the skull's eye holes, adding another layer of terror to the inhuman-like creature!

The rusty wood knife he held in his hand was as huge as his, although it was blunt and close to the bladeless, but because of its weight, it became a very lethal weapon, and if anyone was hit by this kind of thing, it would not be as simple as being split in half, but would be directly a blur of flesh and blood!

Daniel's eyes widened and he looked at the other party for a second, and then he knew that something was wrong and immediately turned and ran away!

Behind him, five strange dolls dressed in dirty and shabby nurses' uniforms, holding scalpels, scissors, and huge needles!

"Hmm!" Daniel's body moved to dodge the moment he saw his opponent. Still, the nurse dolls rushed up and attacked Daniel one by one, and they were very murderous. Not to mention how sharp and dangerous those scalpels and scissors were, the huge syringe was filled with some kind of turbid and viscous black liquid, which was estimated to be either highly poisonous or worse than highly toxic, and it was no joke to be pricked by that kind of syringe!

The deadly and dangerous weapons stabbed at the Black Iron Knight boy one by one, and Daniel shivered and dodged, and finally slipped through the gaps between the monsters' attacks! The nurse dolls turned and reached out towards Daniel, and even though the attack was dodged, they still wanted to grab Daniel with their hands, or at least hold his hind legs! However, Daniel was still slightly more agile than his opponent, and he swung his fist back before his hind legs were touched, knocking the nurses away and allowing himself to run farther!

Before Daniel could take three or two steps, there was a loud bang behind him! The big man with the sheep's head mask didn't regard the dolls as his companions at all, and rushed over and smashed the dolls to pieces with a heavy and huge wooden knife! Daniel couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, if he had reacted a little slower and was dragged back by the nurse dolls, he would have been smashed along with the group of dolls!

The sheep-headed demon slammed directly into the scattered nurse dolls, and continued to rush towards Daniel. The boy had no choice but to run away from his opponent head-on! Running through the dim and dilapidated streets, he found that the whole world was surrounded by strange decadence, and the streets were full of serious collapses, and under the collapsed concrete floor, it looked like a dark and bottomless valley! Daniel must walk carefully while avoiding the pursuit of the sheep-headed demon, not to mention how difficult it is!

Knock, knock! The bell rang from the second floor of Knight Dore's house again. Daniel was running as he thought about what to do. A head-on breakout should be out of the question. But Mr. Dorey's home should have a back door, which is one of those elevated iron ladders in the alley behind the apartment, a kind of fire-walking passage. Just go around to the back of this building, maybe you can jump from the box to the top of the ladder, and use the fire escape to enter Mr. Dore's house, right?

As Daniel thought this, he immediately turned and ran towards the back alley area of the apartment. However, the road was cut off in front of him, and there were countless bottomless pits between the alleys.

Now even if he turned back, it was useless, the fierce sheep-headed demon behind him had already followed, although it was far less fast than the Black Iron Knight Boy, but it was blocking the road there and would launch a deadly attack at any time, Daniel didn't dare to run over and provoke it!

It can only be skipped. The boy swallowed. If you don't jump properly, you will fall to your death, and you will fall into a dark pit, and you will never recover. But he didn't have a choice, either jump or die!

He jumped back, sprinted, and slid along the wall with his hands and feet! He carefully landed on a platform, and almost slipped into the abyss the moment he landed, but he clung to the brick crack by the wall, and relied on the weak support to resist the inertia!

But as soon as Daniel stood firm, he heard the sound of jumping behind him. The sheep-headed demon was crazy, and when it saw Daniel jump, it leaped with the same force, and at the same time it did a fatal jump! It didn't seem to have the slightest fear that it would fall into the abyss because it didn't jump properly, maybe it was born from that abyss, how could it be afraid to return to it!

Daniel knew that if he didn't act immediately, he would definitely die, either he would be crushed by that jump, or he would be hit by the impact and fall into the pit in front of him!

But he was five yards away from the next landing point, and to jump over the small platform where he was, there was not enough distance to even run and jump!

He jumped diagonally to the wall, kicked the wall with his hands and feet, and then bounced to the other wall with the reaction force of this wall! Luckily, it was a small alley of two buildings sandwiched between the walls, and the distance between the walls was less than three yards, and Daniel jumped from one wall to the other, and then used all his hands and feet to kick the wall a second time, and after two consecutive kicks he landed on the platform five yards away from the starting point!

No, it wasn't exactly smooth, he hit his head on the edge of the cracked concrete floor, and he almost fainted. But he forcibly endured the pain, and his hands clawed wildly, and finally grasped the edge of the platform. He almost fell into the bottomless abyss, and as he gasped for half a second, he also felt something scratching his foot below!

Black hands—something as thin and insubstantial as a ghost, something as sticky and muddy as asphalt, those vaguely hand-shaped objects were grabbing Daniel's legs, intending to drag the Black Iron Knight boy into the abyss!

"I don't ......!" Daniel, who was almost unconscious, gritted his teeth and fought against those things. The more they tried to drag the boy into the abyss, the more Daniel wanted to climb out! In the end, he won the struggle, and he pulled himself up from the edge of the platform with all his strength, and finally found a place to stay!

What about the sheep-headed demon? Daniel couldn't help but look back. That guy's fatal jump just now wasn't reckless, it should be said that it had been planned a long time ago. Its jumping chop had made the huge knife in its hand sink deep into the edge of the platform, and it was impossible for it to jump over a pit that was at least three yards away, and it had only jumped with the help of the knife. But it seemed to have lost its sight on the next foothold a full five yards away, and it had been looking at Daniel in the distance since it had risen from the platform in front of it, but had not attempted to jump over and continue the pursuit.

"Looks like I'm still more flexible than you. The Black Iron Knight boy chuckled under his breath. It seemed that he had been free of the sheep-headed demon for ------ time being, until it found another way.

Knock, knock, knock, knock. The bell rang again, and the bell on the apartment floor was still calling Daniel. He knew that staying in this otherworldly or illusion was not the way to go, and if the bell was his cue to get out of here, then he would have to find it by all means! Daniel had already made his way to the back alley of the apartment, where there were no more collapsed areas, but the ladder of the fireway upstairs hadn't been lowered either. Perhaps jumping by kicking the wall would allow him to reach the edge of the ladder that he hadn't lowered yet, but it would also be extremely risky, as the platform at the bottom of the fireescape ladder was also ten yards above the ground, and a mistake in jumping off the wall could cause Daniel to fall and injure himself, or hit his bleeding head.

But he didn't have any other way. The Black Iron Knight boy wiped his bruised forehead and jumped up against the wall.

Boom! After kicking the wall twice and jumping, his hand grabbed the edge of the ladder in one fell swoop! Tear! However, the iron pipe on the edge of the old and rusty ladder was in danger of collapsing, and it could not bear the weight of the Black Iron Knight boy, and it was deformed downward, and it could break at any time!

Daniel reached out his other hand to grab the platform where the ladder was, just in time to grab another support point just before the pipe on this side broke!

He gasped and pulled himself upwards with all his might, and finally climbed onto the platform!

Knock, knock, knock, knock! the bell kept surging him. Although he didn't know how far away from the bell was, Daniel followed the general direction where the bell was, climbed up to the fifth or sixth floor of the apartment, and broke through the window. The place where he was was supposed to be in the bedroom of a private house, but in this strange world, there were signs of aging everywhere, the room seemed to have been abandoned for decades, the surrounding walls were badly peeled, the furniture was broken into wooden planks and iron chips, and only the mattress next to it was vaguely recognizable. The bell must have come from this floor, but there were at least five or six houses on this floor, and the structure inside was also different, and Daniel didn't know the structure of these houses, and if he wanted to find the mysterious bell in it, he would have to grope slowly!

Thinking of this, Daniel immediately crouched and sneaked up, moving quietly while evacuating from the room he was in as soon as possible, because he had just broken the window, and when the dirty and old window glass broke, it still made a lot of noise.

He had just left the room and moved to another bedroom when he heard the heavy footsteps of the sheep-headed demon!
