readx;? What do people live for?
For money, for love, for power, for dreams? In short, to live for all good things, but in fact, to live is an incomparably beautiful thing in itself. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThis is what Ian feels when he sees Bernie again.
He sat there quietly, leaning back against the bluestone bricks, his head bowed, not knowing whether he was dead or alive. But Ian knew he was dead, because a large hole had been cut in his chest, his heart was gone, and the blood that flowed out had dried up, forming sticky patches of blood on his clothes.
Ian almost lost count of the first time someone had died in front of him. Hunting is not a trick, and every hunt carries a certain amount of risk, whether it is a beginner hunter or a king as strong as a king. Everyone knew this, but the hunters did not hesitate to embark on the journey.
"If you've seen enough, let's hurry up. With an oil lamp in his hand, Manhe said in a low voice, "We can't stay in one place for too long, those guys will be over soon." ”
"What will happen to him?" Ian asked, "will he become a ghost?"
"Calculate the time, it should be about the same. "His mind has long since been lost, and it is only a matter of time before he becomes a ghost, let alone die so completely." ”
Ian nodded, gave Bernie one last look, and then turned to leave.
"Let's go. He whispered.
This is the fate of the hunter. As they drifted apart, Bernie's figure was drawn closer to the darkness little by little.
......
Eight high-level hunters, Bernie Granger, have been confirmed dead. Barlow had already been seriously injured before that, and Ian didn't have much hope that he would survive. The remaining six high-level hunters, Ian will find them no matter what, whether they are dead or alive, as well as the old Lord Greg, and Grimm. Green is the person who worries Ian the most, before they separated, it was the "older brother" who dominated the body that was useless.
"If you want to finish the third floor, it will take at least a day and a half without a break. Walking through the passageway, Manhe and Ian said, "If we encounter a horde of [ghosts], we will have to take time to avoid them. Therefore, the estimated time is two days, a total of four floors, each floor will take two days, at least eight days, or no surprise. ”
"What is an accident?"
"The accident is that I encountered a powerful [ghost] and was killed directly. Manhe shrugged, "Although this is not very likely, because I have always taken the small path, and those powerful [ghosts] cannot enter." But if you have to go through every floor, then the possibility of encountering those [ghosts] will be greatly increased. Moreover, the first and fourth floors are not completed in two days. ”
"I see. Ian nodded.
"If you really understand, you should give up the world to find them. "Seriously, it's not a good feeling to watch your former companions turn into ghosts one by one." ”
"They won't be that vulnerable. Ian said, "They're all unparalleled hunters. ”
"Are you lying to me, or are you lying to yourself? They don't know the way, and once they encounter a large-scale [ghost], they'll be finished, right?"
The two stopped and stared blankly at the scene in front of them. At this moment they had reached the end of the corridor, and what appeared in front of them was a horde, [ghosts]. It was the thing that Manhe feared the most, but by this time they had become less terrifying, for no other reason than because they had all had their limbs cut off and were curled up in the corners of the wall like wriggling reptiles.
After a brief pause, Ian was the first to react to what was happening and walked straight forward, ignoring Manhe's shouts behind him. There is no doubt that the hands and feet of these [ghosts] have been cut off by people, and who else can do all this except those hunters who have wandered on the line of life and death all their lives?
This was the first time Ian had seen a ghost, a "living" ghost. Their faces have rotted to the point where they can't see clearly, and their eyes have long since deteriorated after being in absolute darkness for a long time. But their senses were still sensitive, and as Ian approached, they began to "whoop" like beasts.
Although I can't see the faces clearly, I can still distinguish them by my body. As Manhe said before, some of them were humans, some were dwarves, and some of them lived in the desert, strange creatures. But most of them were humans and dwarves, and Ian saw that one of the [ghosts] was wearing a traveler's clothes, but it was already in tatters.
Manhe followed Ian, also looking for something.
"It looks like that companion of yours is still alive. After walking around, Manhe said in some surprise, "He actually escaped?"
"I did. ”
Ian nodded, feeling a lot more relaxed, at least not everyone was like Bernie, who directly became [ghosts] without resistance. Ian wondered who had escaped from here. Soon, he found a series of footprints on the ground, the footprints were very neat, and the man must have left very calmly, that is, he was not injured.
"He shouldn't have gone far. "We'll follow the footprints and we should be able to find him soon." ”
"I advise you not to get your hopes up too much. Manhe looked strange, "The direction he's going in isn't good." ”
Ian didn't understand what Manhe meant, and he didn't want to pay too much attention to it, he just wanted to find the members of the team as soon as possible. So he followed the footprints, and Manhe had no choice but to follow Ian. After a few moments, they walked out of the hallway, and it was pitch black and a damp feeling came over them.
As Manhe followed, holding up the oil lamp, the flames scattered in all directions, but nothing could be seen. Ian took a few steps forward and found that there was a cliff in front of them, and before they knew it, they had reached a dead end, and there was a climbing rope tied to the rock next to the cliff.
"The worst happened. Manhe sighed, "Your friend has gone down." ”
"Where's down there?"
"The fourth basement floor, the place with the most [ghosts]. Manhe said, "The [ghosts] on the fourth floor underground are not comparable to the [ghosts] on the third floor. Your companion must have left his life there. ”
"He's not going to die. ”
"Really?" Manhe said softly, "I remember you had a ball that glows, right, drop it and you'll know how outrageous your confidence is." ”
Ian suspiciously took out the [Illumination Ball] from the metal box, weighed it in his hand a few times, squeezed it hard, and then dropped off the cliff. The ball exploded in mid-air, emitting a blinding glow, and Ian could see where he was - inside a huge rock, surrounded by rocks.
He looked down, and the ball illuminated the rocks below, landing a few seconds later, and the light went out.
But Ian had already seen what Manhe wanted him to see, and at this moment, the clothes on his back were soaked with cold sweat. He saw countless faces, clinging to the rocks.
