Chapter 45: Fighting for Themselves

The cave is a deep black color, but if you look closely, you can see that the fog that seals the entire entrance is yellow.

Rorschach stood still, already at the entrance of the cave, and no one could retreat.

Levi was the first to walk over with the box in his arms.

Rorschach and Avella followed.

As soon as they came to the entrance of the cave, these yellow mist suddenly opened like a huge mouth, and a large area of demonic yellow light poured out, suddenly covering them.

There was a sudden darkness in front of him, and Rorschach knew that they had entered the cave.

From the outside, it is impossible to imagine that the inside of the cave is such a vast space.

Moreover, except for the thick layer of yellow mist at the entrance of the cave, after entering it, there was nothing left.

The walls were covered with strange moss, and cold droplets of water seeped down from the cracks in the stone and dripped on the ground, with a slight echo.

The cave was dark and silent, except for the footsteps of the three people quietly rippling in the darkness.

Levi's diminutive frame walked in front, with Avella in the middle and Rorschach behind.

He estimated that he had walked about five or six hundred meters, and had not yet reached the end of the hole.

Until...... Levi stopped.

There was a deep dark pool in front of him.

Rorschach had never seen water so dark and so eerie.

The three of them were obviously standing by the waterhole, but they couldn't even be seen.

"Ahh

Avella snorted softly and pointed above the waterhole.

It was pitch black, and on closer inspection, it was a humanoid thing.

Levi snapped his fingers, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and a burning flame appeared on his fingertips.

The pitch-black shadow was instantly illuminated, and at this time, ...... The three of them saw that it was a person.

His chest was still panting slightly, but his form was almost human.

"Colonel Ducky?"

Rorschach and Levi's voices rang out at the same time.

The expressions of the two were different, especially Levi, whose gaffe was even stronger than when he saw Rorschach standing in the sunlight just now.

This was the same Defense Officer who had transported the twisted corpses into the city, and he had also responded to Rorschach's request and touched Aunt Caroline's corpse.

He's back again?

"I'll put you down!"

As soon as Levi's words ended, Rorschach and Avella felt a heat.

The flame from his fingertips drew into a very thin line and flickered.

Then Colonel Ducky fell down the waterhole.

Levi kicked his feet, leaped up to catch him, and landed safely on the other side of the pool.

"Are you alright?"

Levi's expression was full of incredulity, but Colonel Dutch, who was in his arms, did not speak.

Suddenly, the man, who had been almost distorted to the point of losing his human form, suddenly opened his eyes, which were a pair of desperate and frightened eyes. The pupils inside seem to have been dug out, leaving two bloody holes, which are miserable.

Colonel Ducky's head was held in Levi's arms, which looked very strange, because Levi's body was like an eight- or nine-year-old child, but what was even more strange at the moment was Colonel Ducky's behavior.

His eyes were blind, and his body was twisted and distorted like those monsters, but his mouth kept opening and closing, as if he were saying something.

However, he couldn't make a sound.

At this moment, Avella's voice suddenly sounded in the cave: "Betrayal...... Demon...... Snake...... Helma ...... The old duke...... Dead ......"

Colonel Ducky's neck went limp, and he lost his breath.

His words were also choppy and incoherent.

However, it was also fortunate that Avella could make out the words he was about to say by the shape of her lips, otherwise they would not have had any information at all.

Levi's face was still incredulous, as if Colonel Ducky didn't deserve to die.

Rorschach frowned slightly, Levi was not an ordinary child, and he shouldn't behave like this.

He noticed that Levi's lips were also moving slightly, as if he was unconsciously saying something.

Rorschach leaned in, but heard him say, "Why is there a Colonel Ducky here...... Why is Colonel Ducky here...... Who is that Dulan...... Dulan's ......"

"What did you say?" Rorschach slapped Levi on the thin shoulder.

The boy immediately came back to his senses.

Instead of being angry at Rorschach's rudeness, he wondered at the look of surprise on his face.

"You just said that Colonel Ducky is now in Dulan?" A chill ran through Rorschach's heart.

"I saw him before I left Dulan." Levi said.

Oops......

In Rorschach's mind, a woman's figure suddenly appeared.

If it was just a show, Limu, Elsa, and Cornelia would not be in danger.

But...... Now that an unknown person has disguised himself as Colonel Daqi and burrowed into Dulan, the situation is very different.

That person can disguise himself as Daqi, and of course he can also disguise as the real owner of Chengdu Lan, the old duke.

Cooperation is no longer needed.

The lever that maintains the delicate balance between them, has broken......

……

"Poof......

"Poof......

"Poof......

Cornelia's waist rose and fell, and her feet were connected, and she walked up and down the swamp with ease, like a leap.

She held the knife in her right hand, back and forth, and with a shake of her arm, the terrible sword light spilled out, and every serpentine monster that came out of the swamp was spurred.

Just now, it stabbed three people in the throat in an instant.

There was a slight cracking of the throat, and the stabbed snake monster went limp, grunted in his chest, and fell crookedly.

Its throat had been pierced with a long knife.

Lim and Elsa are also fighting their own enemies.

Just now, when Cornelia stabbed the monster hiding under the swamp, it was like igniting a signal, and in an instant, dense monsters poured out of the surrounding swamp.

They were grayish-white, just like the little monster that had grown up, only with sharper teeth and claws, and more ferocity in their pupils.

However, they lost the majestic vitality of those little monsters, and after being pierced in their throats, they fell directly into the swamp and sank into the foul-smelling mud.

So, although there were a large number of them, none of the three of them were ordinary people, and it was not difficult to cooperate to kill, and a large area of monsters was quickly emptied.

Lim also seemed to be a completely different person, his killing intent was churning, his nerves were tense, like a furry beast, any wind and grass could be clearly transmitted into his ears.

I saw that his dagger was connected, and it stabbed three times like lightning, poof, poof-

The throats of the three monsters are pierced.

A cloudy and disgusting yellow and red intertwined liquid flowed out of their wounds, and they could not cover it, and they fell directly into the swamp.

Soon, Limu noticed something unusual.

No matter how you kill it, although the surrounding monsters are rapidly decreasing, the number of monsters that have re-climbed out of the swamp is increasing!

He stared at the swamp as he pierced the throat and fell into the swamp, and was soon swallowed up in the mud.

Followed by...... A hand came out from there, and it was it again!

It's crawling out again!

"The swamp is constantly resurrecting them, and if we continue like this, we will be consumed alive!" Lim glanced around and said in a hoarse voice.

"It's a living thing, and these monsters are the same monster as this swamp," said Cornelia suddenly, "and it's not in them, it's in the swamp. ”
