Chapter 17: Swollen Face
A long and dark underground passage that leads to the darkness.
If it weren't for being chased by the spider monster, it would be impossible for Lu Fei and the others to escape to this underground space, let alone know that there was such a huge and complex underground world hidden under the seemingly silent Silent Hill Town.
From the real walls on both sides of the underground space, it can be seen that this is a maze of underground fortifications, not a dark world conjured up after being invaded by the demon's "inner world", as for the underground space is almost pitch black, it is because there is no light.
The underground space is composed of countless passages, according to Lu Fei's inference, these passages should lead to different places in the town, from the appearance of the red-clothed nurse Lisa, it can be deduced that the passages of the underground world can lead to the famous Xigang Hospital in Silent Hill Undoubtedly, Lu Fei thinks that one of these many passages may even lead to the prison that was closed as early as the 80s of the last century.
If, according to the nurse in red, they could walk straight along the passage on their right hand and find the exit back to the town, it would be possible.
There is such a complex underground world hidden under the town of Silent Hill, which Lu Fei never expected, and this is only one of the many unknown secrets of Silent Hill, Silent Hill, which was forced to close down many years ago, hides too many secrets, and these secrets have to start from the complex history of Silent Hill.
Silent Hill's earliest history dates back to the 17th century, when it was a sacred place for Aboriginal religious practices.
In the early 17th century, the first British colonists settled in Silent Hill.
In the 18th century, a strange plague swept through the town, killing a large number of its inhabitants and leaving the survivors fleeing, leaving the town deserted for a while.
At the beginning of the 19th century, British colonists used the town as an overseas penal colony and opened a prison and the famous Creek Harbor Hospital, but the prison was closed after less than 40 years, and the town was abandoned once again.
In the middle of the 19th century, a group of pioneers discovered that there were large coal reserves in the underground of Silent Hill, so coal mining facilities were built, and Silent Hill ushered in another opportunity to prosper.
During the American Civil War, the town was reduced to a prisoner of war camp, and there was a large-scale torture of prisoners of war, and the camp was closed after the Civil War.
Back in modern times, Silent Hill is a quiet town surrounded by forests on the shores of Lake Toluca in the United States, where the scenery is beautiful and the climate is pleasant, and it is a good place for vacation and recuperation.
There is also an active cult group composed of religious fanatics (the same degree of activity as the wheel of our country. This is an extreme group of pagans who spread eschatology everywhere, advocating the sacrifice of living people to resurrect gods, and secretly selling drugs.
However, in the changes of history and the torrent of time, Silent Hill still cannot escape its ultimate fate.
40 years ago, a fire caused by an underground coal mine caused Silent Hill to be forced to close, and the underground boilers and veins are still burning with raging flames, and deadly pollutants are still floating in the air, after the fire, the town was closed by the political axe, and overnight the group of extreme pagans who were active in the town mysteriously disappeared, some say that they were not burned to death by the fire, but were taken away by the resurrected gods, some say that they fled to another world and continue to spread the words of the end times, and some say that they were secretly "bought" by the political axe, In short, no one knows where they have gone, and no one has seen them again.
Silent Hill has divine power in the hearts of the aborigines, and the holy place where the pagans operate is a place with a strong power of faith.
However, no one knew that from the moment Silent Hill was forced to close, a dark moment also came, the demon brought the dark world, and the evil forces transformed Silent Hill into a world of binary opposition, or more accurately triad, that is, the "real world", "the surface world" and the "inner world", the extreme infidels were trapped in the "surface world" where self-redemption never ended, and the powerful power of faith could only survive in the only remaining holy land, The distorted space is playing a game of killing all the time, and the evil force will even drag the redeemer in the real world into the game of the dark world, this is the place of redemption of crime and punishment, Silent Hill, to be precise, Lu Fei, Lei Hong, and Yu Ting are all victims who are dragged into this game.
I don't know how long I walked in the dark, and a door appeared in front of Lu Fei.
A rotten wooden door blocked Lu Fei and the others in the dark underground passage.
Behind the door, is that the exit to the town?
Lu Fei pushed open the wooden door and immediately saw the light.
The same underground passage is separated by a wooden door, and a staircase-like exit is more than ten meters away, and the misty light of the outside world is entering this dark underground world little by little, like a lighthouse in the distance in the dark night, lighting up the hope of the lost.
The exit is indeed ahead, and the outside world seems to have returned to its foggy daytime scene, could it be that the invasion of the "inner world" has ended?
However, on this short, only ten meters long underground passage, there were more than a dozen strange figures standing like clay figures in various distorted postures.
Each of these figures is dressed as a nurse with a strong sense of surname, their bodies are hot and exposed, and each nurse holds the same different surgical instrument in a different posture, including a scalpel, hemostats, syringes, large medical forceps, etc.
The nurses are all hot, surnamed, and exposed, but they don't look like people at all, their skin is a weird muddy white, and a large area of exposed skin is crawling with prominent black tendons, and what's even more terrifying is that they don't even have a face, maybe it can't be described by a face at all, it's just a distorted, bloated, and wrinkled face, and the position of the facial features can't be seen at all, to be precise, there are no facial features on their swollen faces at all.
"Swollen face nurse!" Lei Hong let out an exclamation.
These nurses with bloated faces and revealing surnames are none other than the famous nurse monsters in the world of Silent Hill, the swollen-faced nurses.
More than a dozen swollen-faced nurses gathered around and extremely sensitive to sound and light all twitched as if they were convulsive after hearing Lei Hong's exclamation.
The next moment, the swollen-faced nurses each clenched the "sharp weapon" in their hands, and their bodies were frantically "dancing" and screaming like babies.
The beam of a flashlight suddenly shot from the center of the swollen-faced nurse's camp towards Lu Fei and the others by the door of the underground passage.
The beam spun around the swollen-faced nurses, then vanished.
Through the beam of light that appeared and disappeared soon after, Lu Fei clearly saw that there was a girl in blue squatting on the ground in the middle of the swollen-faced nurse camp who was "dancing" wildly, and the beam of the flashlight was the signal sent by the girl in blue, and the girl in blue looked at Lu Fei and the others with a pair of frightened eyes full of hope, and kept making a slurred voice in her mouth, and the voice seemed to say:
"Help me! Help me......"
