Chapter 5: Silent Hill (1)

The day passed quickly, and it was getting dark. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

After a day's walk, Alice and the maid finally stopped to rest...... It's still a long way from the nearest town, and it's still a forest, and I'm going to spend the night in the forest tonight.

As the winter day darkened quickly, the maid dropped her luggage and began to set up her tent.

Beside her, she used her cane to drive away the snow from a large rock, and then, holding her cane, Alice sat down on the rock to rest.

"Miss, I'll go around and look for food. When the tent was set up, the maid looked back, and stopped talking when she saw Alice, who was sitting on a rock and leaning on a tree trunk and had fallen asleep at some point.

Alice is no longer the witch with endless power, she is just a frail human maiden, and for the patient, adequate sleep is the best way to restore the body's full functioning...... It's the instinct of the body.

After a day of walking, and never taking a nap, it was a heavy burden for Alice, who had just passed a fever and had a serious injury on her body...... Even if I don't realize it.

Although the maid also wanted to carry Alice on her back, she also had luggage to carry.

Among them, Alice is also not happy to be carried, and she is not a three-year-old ghost...... At the very least, you need a romantic princess hug?!!

The maid took out the cotton wool coat that Alice had disliked as too ugly from her luggage, carefully covered it for her without alarming Alice, and then left silently.

Miss Maid forgot a little, though!

An important point!

Alice's sleep is quite poor.

Sitting on the rock, the girl with her long black hair fell asleep, and her body involuntarily began to tilt until her center of gravity was out of balance.

Bang!

The black-haired girl on the rock fell to the ground at this moment...... And also rolled two laps.

...... "Okay, the drowsiness is gone."

Alice, who was sober in an instant, looked at the warm coat covering her body a little speechlessly, looked left and right, the maid was not around, and then thought about it and knew that she should go to the neighborhood to find prey.

He was about to take away his clothes and stand up, but when his hand touched the clothes, Alice's eyes caught sight on the ground.

Even though the sky was not very bright near dusk, there were still shadows, and at this time, Alice realized that the shadow in front of her was not larger.

No, no, no, no matter what, Alice's figure belongs to the slim category, excluding the option of obesity, so this shadow is not his own anyway, it is more like some huge guy standing behind Alice, and at this time, the posture made by this shadow looks similar to the woodcutter's action of wielding an axe to cut wood.

Woodcutter Logging ...... Lumbering...... Cutting down trees...... Lop...... Chop......

“......!?”

Out of warrior instinct, Alice immediately moved her hand from the clothes covering her body to the crutches, and raised the crutches to her right to block according to the direction of the shadow's attack.

For Alice, who had no strength at this time, a rather terrifying and powerful force came from the crutches, and at the same time that the crutches broke, Alice's whole person was knocked out by this blow.

It's close to the downhill slopes on the outskirts of the wilderness.

Alice, who was knocked out, rolled on the ground a dozen times and rolled all the way to the bottom of the downhill slope of the forest, away from the crime scene above the downhill, and finally fell into the snow.

If there is no defense, Alice may be smashed into flesh by the opponent's blunt object in the first place?

In the snow, clutching her head from the attack and a little dazed, Alice immediately raised her head and looked at her original position above the downhill.

At this time, the camp above the downhill slope, the tent that had been set up was waved indiscriminately by a huge black blurred figure holding a heavy weapon, and the camp site was completely destroyed. For Alice on the downhill slope, the huge figure had no intention of pursuing, and through the thick fog that rose at some point, the bloodshot eyes of the black figure and the cold gray eyes of the witch looked at each other for a while.

Eventually, through the thick fog, the black figure gradually disappeared into the thick fog.

"......" turned a blind eye to the bleeding arm with a wound, and Alice, who had regained her feet, looked at the broken cane in her hand and threw it aside.

In a short period of time, the sky was completely darkened.

At the same time, the change in light and fog made Alice turn her body slightly and look around the downhill slope.

The distant scene blurred, and a thick reddish fog filled the surrounding area.

Here, it feels ominous!

Not far away, there is a square street sign made of wood, on which various signs of corrosion show the age of the wooden sign.

Because the leg had not yet healed to the bone, Alice jumped on one foot, and came to the front of the wooden sign and leaned down to watch.

Although some lacquer has been dropped, it does not hinder the content of the text on it, which is still clear, and the red lacquer shows the content.

“...... Silent Hill?" Seeing the content on it, as well as the directional arrow of the wooden sign, Alice thought silently in her heart.

It didn't matter what ridge it was, there was something else that Alice cared more about than the name of the place in the middle of nowhere.

Reaching out and pulling out the wooden sign, fortunately, it was about the same height...... Alice took it as a substitute for her makeshift crutches.
