Chapter 34: Long Time No See
Fear crept up in Banl's mind, but he was quickly restrained by him, and in the case of life and death, Banr quickly pulled out the short dagger at his waist.
He looked angry, even if it was an evil spirit, he believed that he could ascend to the kingdom, and if he had no foothold, he would go and snatch a piece.
The remnants don't need to be taken in, they themselves are enough, and this is what Bandar has been working on.
In the hot and unbearable air, Baner swung his dagger towards the unknown thing in front of him, swinging it with all his might, the steel collided with each other, stirring up dazzling fire, as if he was facing an iron-armored knight, Baner's attack had no effect at all.
His arm was numb from the violent friction, and he couldn't even hold the dagger tightly, but an even more violent howling wind suddenly rose, and although the attack had not yet fallen, the deadly killing intent was already terrifying enough.
Death wielded his scythe, vowing to take his life.
Baner only had time to lean back and fall backwards, which might have dodged Lorenzo's fatal blow, but it was only for a long time, and he had no chance to resist when he fell to the ground.
The cold glow of the folding knife grazed his cheeks, bringing up bright red blood, but at this moment the dense gunfire rose, and the projectiles fell like a violent storm.
This gave Banr some life, but the folding knife suddenly struck again, and in the darkness Baner could only see a glimmer of light passing through it, and then blood splattered from his shoulder.
The pain sobered him up a little, and he stabbed his dagger again, but he was hit hard in the chest like a war hammer, and the impact broke his breath and sent a dull pain in his chest.
One of them advanced with his gun on his back, a heavy projectile that might not have broken Lorenzo's armor, but the kinetic energy it carried hit him like a hammer.
Lorenzo fired at the heaviest point, the shattered projectiles speeding through and taking away lives, but more gunshots rang out, echoing in the enclosed space, as if a thundercloud was converging in the depths of the earth, the dull thunder that shook everyone who listened.
The officers temporarily withdrew from the tunnel after the onslaught of steam, and Pres was handcuffing Em when the sound of thunder and punishment echoed through the deep tunnel, and finally spread to the surface.
Everyone froze in place, looking at the dark entrance of the cave with a little fear, as if this was the way to this hell, and those monsters were fighting in hell, and the frenzied shouts extended to the current Zheng
Donus couldn't help but hesitate, he could be sure that these people had fled into the tunnel, but what was happening there?
Thinking so, he grabbed Em from the side, grabbed his collar with both hands, and asked angrily.
"What's going on inside!"
Em had escaped from it, and he must have known something.
But the boy was obviously very frightened, malnourished for a long time, and not seeing the light of day, he looked very sickly, he shook his head in fear, and said nothing.
For a long time he thought he was going to die in that dark stronghold, but now that he had come out, he seemed to be in even greater trouble.
"I ...... I don't know! I don't know anything!"
Em shouted loudly, he didn't know anything, he didn't know what was going on, and he wasn't even supposed to live.
A few minutes earlier, he had almost died in the darkness that no one knew, and his survival was only a little mercy on Lorenzo's part.
He didn't know who that monstrous man was, and he didn't know what he was going to do.
At this moment, an even more violent sound came from the tunnel, the steel was violently colliding with each other, and then another round of air gushed out, and the high-temperature steam with dust and iron filings rained down on everyone, some of them were too close, and even scratched by the high-speed debris.
Iron filings pierce the garment, cutting through the skin.
Donas's face was heavy, he didn't want to give up this opportunity, but he was afraid of the unknown in the dark, looking at the police officers on the side, the morale was high at first was also shocked by this sudden change, and their faces were full of fear and worry.
The dark unknown is always frightening, he cursed secretly, but still mustered up the courage and pulled out his matching gun.
"Go ahead and keep up with me. ”
Donas walked ahead, and the officers were tempted to refuse, but they were pressured to step in again.
In the darkness, the slaughter continued, they went crazy, firing frantically, the bullets kept hitting the strange figure, but just like the previous result, the bullets bounced off it, leaving only zero points of fire, barely reflecting the craggy figure.
Hearing has been blurred, and in this thundercloud, everyone hears only the roar of gunfire, and the constant flashing of firelight, which has become a psychedelic picture in vision.
They breathed heavily, and though the heat of the air was painful, they breathed hard, even if they were burned, and the residual heat scorched their internal organs, as if a fire was burning in their bodies.
Someone had emptied the bullets, then raised the dagger at his waist and slashed at the iron armor, he didn't know if the attack was effective, but there was nothing they could do but that.
The monster from the nightmare came looking for them, and they still don't know what kind of monster they are facing, but they know one thing, only one side will survive in this situation.
In the darkness, they couldn't accurately judge Lorenzo's location, so they had to rely on constant gunfire to keep up with Lorenzo's pace, not to mention that they weren't regular fighters themselves, but just a group of gang members.
The dagger swung down hard, but it couldn't reach Lorenzo, and the arm holding the weapon fell in midair, and the next moment Lorenzo's folding knife pierced his throat.
Slashed out horizontally, shattering with half of his body, the smell of the fishy smell mixed with the old hot air, turning into gaseous fear.
Savor the delicacy as you breathe, and return it with the same shiver.
This is a victory for Lorenzo, a victory for fear.
Someone else continued to attack, he detonated the steam pipe behind Lorenzo, and in the high-frequency scream, hot gas spewed out, and the instantaneous impact made Lorenzo's pace stagger, which was a force that could burn people to death, but had little effect on this monster.
More dew condensed on the iron armor, and was thrown off as he swung his sword.
People resisted in vain, and this was not the most desperate, what was really desperate was the monster they were fighting against.
The fire left by the bullet impact was like a jigsaw puzzle, one puzzle after another pieced together the monster's appearance, Lorenzo slashed wantonly, and the folding knife took life after life.
Banr clutched the remaining hallucinogens and ran wild in the darkness, a devastating desperate situation in which everything in the environment tormented Banel's senses.
Terrible wails, blazing air, burning on the surface, fear in the heart.
He's going to die, he's going to die, and it's only then that Baner realizes himself, his cowardly and ridiculous self.
People always have some ambitions before they die, but when the nightmarish guy catches up, Baner realizes how ridiculous his ambitions are, and he is not calm before he dies, he is very afraid, so he can only run away in a panic.
He looked back at the terrible darkness, the gunfire was like a flashing light, and in a moment of light, Baner saw the vague ghost, and he waved his white knife in the blink of an eye, and in the connection of light and darkness, he moved at a super high speed, and after each shutter-like gunshot, a figure fell forever.
It was like a stop-motion animation until everyone was dead, and he looked up at Banel at the end of the darkness.
Banr ran as hard as he could, he had lost his senses, and ran wildly in the dark, slipping and falling because of the stagnant water, but quickly getting up.
He couldn't stop, it would be death to stop, and in a panic, Baner walked along the road, and he could hear the sound of the rushing water, and he was about to reach the lower town.
But he stumbled and fell to the ground, and there was a sharp pain in his leg, and he turned his head to see that his leg was cut by a raised piece of iron, and the blood was not stopping.
Banr roared, he couldn't stand up, he could only drag his injured leg in despair, crawling into the corner, blood dragging on the ground, sparse sounds in the darkness, rats watching him, waiting for Ban's death like scavenging vultures.
"Get out of here!"
He roared and dispersed the rats, but he didn't have much strength, and he slammed into the ground, and the pain was exerted together, and he became numb.
It's a desperate one, death comes so suddenly, without warning.
With tears in his eyes, as a remnant, his slightly tragic life seemed to be ending like this.
"My master...... My master......
Suddenly he whispered in distraction, repeating himself like a devout believer.
A strange murmur sounded in his ears, as if someone was whispering something, and he urged Banr to go himself.
There was no hope left, and he looked at the hallucinogens, perhaps driven by desperation, or perhaps fear chasing him, and reached out to inject one hallucinogen after another into his body.
In a desperate situation, the so-called will is ridiculous, and Baner can face death, but not such a fearful death.
The effects of the medicine soon ran through his body, filling every vein, soothing his nerves and banishing his pain.
He was so much more comfortable, he couldn't feel even the pain of death so tormenting him.
Joyful pleasure enveloped him, but Banger had the last sobriety, the secret blood sparked in his body, changing the fragile flesh, the ever-increasing forbidden power began to give birth to new weirdness, and in this incomparably silent darkness, the secret blood rose in Bair's body, lighting up a pure white beacon.
"The host...... Is that you?"
The time of death has come, and Baner doesn't really believe in any ghosts and gods, but now that he is also in all this, he can't help but be amazed.
Staring at the darkness in front of him, he could clearly perceive the darkness wriggling, and finally sketched a gray figure, obviously there was no extra light source, but Baner could clearly see the color appear on his body.
The wriggling darkness turned into an illusory shadow, and the man approached Ban'er, a benevolent smile on his young face.
"The host ......"
Banr couldn't believe it.
In this treacherous atmosphere, the connection arrived across the physical distance, and the man leaned down and brushed Baner's face.
"You...... Are you real?"
Baner suspected that it was the effect of hallucinogens, and under the effect of this potion, it was not strange to see anything, but the man said.
"I'm real, Barian. ”
Baner was slightly stunned, and then began to cry.
"I'm going to die, master, I'm going to die......"
He cried out about his doomed fate.
"Don't worry, Banre, just like me, death is not the end, it is only the beginning of another journey. He rubbed Baire's hair like a priest doing his final mass for the dying man.
"Will we have a place?"
"There will be. The man replied.
Ban'er's gaze was a little misty, probably hallucinating, but soon it became fierce again.
This may be the complexity and contradiction of human nature, he was afraid of Rutz before, but now he is angry with Rutz.
"You can't lie to me! Master! I swore it!"
Zar roared angrily, like a dying curse, and he grabbed the man's hand tightly.
"You promised us! If you deceive, I swear, I will never forgive you!"
This was his greatest wish as a remnant, and if death could be exchanged for a place to stay, Banr was willing to die.
The man also seemed a little surprised, he didn't expect that at the end of the cry, there would be such anger.
"You will be exalted to a kingdom that belongs to ours and to yours. ”
As he had promised, the man was affectionate, but no one responded to him, Banr was dead, an overdose of hallucinogens killed him, but he came back to life, the forbidden secret blood dominated the body, and the heavy heartbeat sounded slowly, becoming more and more rapid.
The unallowed life glows on him, and a strange smile remains on his face.
Lawrence shook his head helplessly, then stood up, he looked into the darkness on the other side, those burning eyes were slowly approaching, but he didn't seem to see Lawrence's presence.
"It's been a long time since I saw you......"
Lawrence sighed a little, and then broke off the connection between the [gaps], and the strange wriggling darkness collapsed, completely disappearing into the illusory consciousness, as if he had never been.
And when Lawrence woke up from his chair again, the old Dunling outside the window was still so gloomy, the fire cloud covered the whole air, and the steel whale rose and fell in the clouds, he got up and walked to the window, staring in the direction of Ban's death.
The door was pushed open slightly, and the plague doctor stood not far away, with piles of boxes of hallucinogens brought by Ender at his feet.
