Chapter 11: The Abyss Approaches

Cough! In order to prevent you from thinking that I am making up the word count, I will shorten Frank's elementary school diary to a few hundred words......

The first appearance of bestiality was three months ago, when a resident of a small town was on his way home late at night when he noticed the roar of a wild beast coming from a house. At first he thought he was watching a horror movie, but when he thought about it, it didn't seem to be the same as the sound of the TV......

With intense curiosity, he leaned on the window of the house, and through the gap in the curtains, he spotted a creepy scene - a werewolf-looking creature was gnawing on a bloody corpse.

The instinct of fear caused him to scream, and what he didn't expect was that it would be the beginning of a Yorktown nightmare.

The beast's sense of hearing is quite acute, and when it senses the presence of other people, it directly breaks through the window, and the witnesses who have no time to react pounce and tear wildly.

The screams of men, the roars of wild beasts, the sound of the sound spread in all directions, and when people noticed the presence of monsters, they ran to their homes, and the doors of their houses were closed.

In the end, though, Frank organized a makeshift squad of demon hunters to subdue the monsters. But Yorktown has also suffered a lot of losses because of this bestial villager.

No one knows the cause of the bestiality or how long this nightmare will last. Since then, Yorktown has seen the appearance of beasts lurking in the darkness whenever the full moon falls......

— but fear didn't always hang over Yorktown.

The ancients said that everything has a quantity, and no matter how scary things are, once they exceed a certain "amount", people will become accustomed to it.

At first, he has no experience in dealing with wild beasts, but practice makes perfect.

What was originally a hunting night for beast hunters has been reduced to a festival to entertain the crowds.

After listening to Frank's narration and getting a general understanding of the affairs in Yorktown, Lin Tianxiang frowned uneasily.

This does not bode well.

If the beast crisis is not resolved, the town will continue this cycle.

Population decline? That's not the biggest problem.

The most terrifying thing is that what is the difference between the inhabitants who are immersed in the pleasure of killing and the beasts themselves? If this continues, Yorktown may cease to exist.

As a fairly well-known mayor, the fact that he can find out the identities of his group is enough to show that this guy has not given up investigating and collecting intelligence from the outside world because of his seclusion. Therefore, Frank should be more aware of the importance of addressing the source.

But he didn't do that...... No, maybe there is no way to do it. If the spread of bestiality could have been stopped in time, the night of the hunt should have been resolved as early as the second or third time.

It's also possible that this guy is already immersed in it, so he doesn't do anything. Since Frank already knew their identities, it was not impossible to commission the "butcher" to assassinate them in order to eliminate unnecessary factors.

Thinking like this, Lin Tianxiang felt strange again, no matter how powerful he thought he was, it was unlikely that he would accept such a commission with a very low chance of winning, right? What is the reward that makes the killer dare to go out of his way?

"One last question, Mayor Frank." Lin Tianxiang decided to deal with the current situation first, "Who is the master who set up the magic enchantment?" ”

What he didn't expect was that Frank replied unexpectedly simply to this question: "It's an old man who moved in a long time ago and now runs a nursing home." The address is ......"

So, Lin Tianxiang asked Zhou Dazhuang and them to go back to the hotel to stay, monitored and protected by Florence and Moxia, although Zhou Dazhuang and he sang the opposite tune as always, but Lin Tianxiang was suppressed by ruthless and violent means. And he took the smoke and rain and Carol to the slightly old sanatorium according to the address.

"To be honest, that Zhou Dazhuang made me feel very uncomfortable." Carol looked at the surroundings of the sanatorium and said something inconsequential, "No matter what you say and make decisions that are not reasonable, he has to say a few words to you, it's just a bar. ”

"Don't worry too much, I guess that guy is angry with me because of Yurou's affairs." Lin Tianxiang looked at the courtyard through the iron gate and found that there would be many elderly people moving outside the house...... Not only the elderly, but also the homeless.

"More than that," Carol said solemnly, "he has a strange aura. ”

"It's all right...... Carroll, do your nursing homes in the UK still house homeless people? Lin Tianxiang is more concerned about this problem.

"How is that possible?" Carroll smiled, "Although it is true that some institutions will provide temporary shelter for the homeless in winter, it is only to help the emergency and not the poor, and it is impossible to put the homeless and the elderly together like this." ”

"In other words, the actions of the director of this nursing home are just private acts?" Lin Tianxiang never easily speculates on others from the perspective of good intentions, because of his professional relationship, he knows very well that the dark side of the world is far more terrifying than the phenomenon. Seeing is not necessarily believing, hearing is not necessarily false, and everything must be investigated clearly before making judgments. This has always been his credo.

It didn't take long for an old man who seemed to be in charge of affairs came over, standing in front of the iron door and seemed to have no intention of opening it. "You ...... What are you here for? He looked back and forth with cloudy eyes, wary of the group of people who weren't dressed like the inhabitants of the place.

Before coming, Frank also reminded that the director of the nursing home was not under his jurisdiction, and even if he used his name to investigate the nursing home, he had the right not to cooperate.

So at this time, Lin Tianxiang began to fool people again, "We are tourists here, and we found that your sanatorium here is quite good, and we want to consider whether to place our parents here......"

Finally, the old man let down his guard, asked the dean for permission, and opened the iron door.

"Everyone, please."

What everyone didn't expect was that when they had just stepped into the sanatorium, a thick fog suddenly hit and engulfed them all......

"What do I rely on...... Are you alright? ”

When the vision returned to normal and the dense fog had cleared, Lin Tianxiang confirmed the surrounding situation and found that the place he was in at this time was no longer Yorktown, like the abandoned back garden of a gloomy old house.

In this scene, Lin Tianxiang, who is a game nerd, first thought of Alice's Manor in "The Witcher 3 Heart of Stone".

The only difference is that there are no janitors and talking cats and dogs.

"Hmm."

"It's not a big problem."

After the two said that they were safe and sound, Lin Tianxiang relaxed a little.

"Looks like we've been teleported." Carroll said.

"This so-called dean feels difficult to deal with...... "The powerful enchantment, the unaware teleportation trap, and this strange space are enough to prove that this person is not an idle person.

The empty back garden reverberates with eerie music, crows quacking from dead branches, and the water of the fountain pool turns the color of blood.

The trio approached the pool and found it full of various parts and organs of the corpse.

"Ahh......h......h

Then, as if the metallic sound of Kaijia was getting closer, the ethereal voice continued to speak the inexplicable middle two lines in Old England.

“…… My Chaos Knight, remove all obstacles for you! ”

Pitch-black light armor, with an ancient greatsword on his back in his right hand, and a beating red light flashing in his helmet......

Judging from the momentum and oppression alone, this is definitely a role that they are not easy to deal with now.

Last night, Lin Tianxiang noticed a serious problem.

I don't know why the strength of Yanyu Rou, who doesn't have an ability, will also drop inexplicably. Of course, even if it is greatly weakened, it can be tied with him, which hurts Lin Tianxiang's self-esteem very much.

"Ahh It is obviously unrealistic to admit that this situation is not realistic. Lin Tianxiang decisively took out Hegel to face the battle, "Everyone, get ready, fight the boss!" ”

- With a roar from the Chaos Knight, and a sudden change of BGM, the boss battle began.
