Section 812 Little boy
Seeing Ingres disappear into the stairs below, Durroux hesitated to follow.
However, at this moment, Duru felt a cold wind blowing in from outside the door, and he couldn't help but shiver.
"Let's keep along. "Durau's teeth are chattering, at least with Master Pat, his safety should be assured.
Duru kept his head and kept up with Ingres.
The stairwell was dark, but surprisingly dustless, but there was a faint smell of potion in the air, which made Duru very uncomfortable...... He always felt that the strong smell of potions seemed to be masking some other tastes.
Da Da Da β
All the way down.
The fluorite glowed a faint green, and looking at the staircase with no end in sight, Duru felt as if he was walking towards a staircase to hell. With every step I take, I feel my heart tremble.
"My lord, why does this basement smell so strong?" said Duru, looking at the straight back in front of him.
"It's because ......" Anglel paused, turning his head.
Durrous didn't know why Ingres suddenly paused, and continued to ask, "Because of what?"
Angel's eyes narrowed slightly, and he smiled lightly: "Because below used to be the medical room of this orphanage." β
Durrous pouted, he felt that Ingres was fooling him. Just imagine, which orphanage would have built its medical room underground?
The two of them continued to walk down, walking for about a minute. Duru crossed his arms and said tremblingly: "How do you feel that it is getting colder and colder, as if the wind is blowing in all directions." β
Angels said casually: "Probably through the hall." β
You're fooling me again. Is the wind blowing in all directions? Durroux wanted to complain, but he was now so cold that he didn't want to talk anymore to dissipate the heat in his body.
And the further down it goes, the more cold it gets. Didn't you say the infirmary? It felt like an ice cellar.
Another cold wind blew, sending goosebumps on Duru's back. In a trance, Duru seemed to hear a crisp laugh, judging from the sharpness of the laughter, it seemed to be a child laughing?
Dulu recalled that the surrounding residents heard the laughter of children from time to time and moved out of the alley to protect themselves.
The laughter he heard just now couldn't be those evil spirits that hurt people?
"Master Pat, are there really evil spirits here?" asked Duru again with a shudder.
"Don't worry, it won't be. Angel said, "You don't believe it, look back." β
Durrous didn't turn a corner for a moment, and he didn't understand why Ingres was turning back when he said that there were no evil spirits. The logic of his thinking didn't keep up, but the muscle memory subconsciously turned him back.
Then, once again, Duru met a pair of eyes.
The black eyes, black without any waves, were like a pool of stagnant water.
Duru gasped and wanted to scream, but his throat seemed to freeze. He could only retreat again and again, and finally retreated to the edge of the wall, gasping for breath.
It was also at this time that Duru felt his lost voice slowly returning, and he called out in a trembling whisper: "Lord Pat...... Yes and there are ......."
Before he could say the word "ghost", he heard Ingres's voice coming.
"An uninteresting ordinary soul, and that scares you?"
Deru turned his head to look at Angels, who had now come to the end of the basement, leaning against a closed door, and spoke quietly to him.
Ordinary souls who are not interesting?, Durux smacked the words, and then looked back at the owner of the eyes that had frightened him just now.
It was a young boy of seven or eight years old dressed in a gray rag shirt, with a pale face and a calm expression. Those dark eyes can't see good and evil, only endless indifference.
His figure was somewhat ethereal and vaguely transparent.
Duru remembered that when Ingres gave him the science of souls and the undead, he once said that the expressions of the undead were basically resentful and hideous, and the soul of the boy in front of him did not have the color of resentment, which did meet the characteristics of the soul.
"Even if it's a soul, it's scary. Durrous retorted weakly.
"Wouldn't you feel a little better if I told you that this little guy has been following you since you came downstairs?" said Ingres with a squint.
Duru was stunned for a moment, recalling the gloomy wind when he went downstairs...... It's scary to think about.
The thought of a soul of unknown origin who had been silently following him made Duru feel cold all over. It's no wonder that Lord Pat suddenly stopped talking when he turned his head before, because he saw the soul behind him?!
Ingres looked at Durroux with a loveless expression, and the corners of his mouth hooked into a smile. Of course, he had already discovered this soul, but Ingres noticed that the little boy's soul showed no signs of degeneration, and the power of the soul was extremely thin, and even if it was a matter of harm, it would at most use a small trick to scare people, and it would hardly help a young man like Duru with strong blood as long as he was on guard.
Therefore, Angel did not say it explicitly. It wasn't until Durux suddenly asked him if he had any evil spirits, and when he went to the basement door, that Ingres told him in a wicked way.
"Who are you, and what are you doing with us?" Ingres asked, his eyes fixed on the little boy.
The little boy frowned, grinned and screamed.
Ingres: "...... What are you doing?"
The little boy was stunned for a moment, stretched out his hands to make a claw shape, and shouted again!
Super fierce!
Angel understood his actions a little at this time: "You're not scary, you're yelling." β
After a pause, Angel suddenly showed an evil smile: "The real scary thing is that ...... like this"
In an instant, a puff of smoke surrounded Ingres, and the next, Ingres went from a lazy uncle to a pitch-black undead in an instant. I couldn't see the appearance clearly, but the scarlet eyes were filled with endless evil.
"Hey, hey, heyβ" The ghostly laughter sounded like a demon whispering in his ear.
His feet seemed to be stepping on the flames of the abyss, and the purple scorching waves of fire spread across the surface. Startled by the flames, the terrifying face suddenly pierced through the flames, opened its fanged mouth, and bit down hard at the little boy......
Not only the little boy, but Duru was also frightened by such a terrifying sight. The little boy was even more unbearable, he originally wanted to scare Angel away, but who knew that someone was more terrifying than him...... He froze in place, his whole body trembling.
It took a while for the little boy to wake up from his fear, and he turned his head to run. But at some point, a fog suddenly appeared behind him, and whenever the little boy wanted to pass through the fog, he would inexplicably return to the same place.
"What are you doing with us? Angels' voice came again.
The little boy turned his head tremblingly, and his originally indifferent eyes were now occupied by fear. When he looked at the previous Great Demon again, he realized that the other party had returned to his human form. But even if he is facing a human being, he does not dare to take it lightly.
The other party must be a demon in human skin!
"If you don't answer, the devil will come and eat you at night. A slightly playful voice came from Ingres' mouth.
Only then did the little boy speak, and his cold voice carried a hint of childishness: "You can't go in again, there is a ...... inside There was ......"
The little boy hesitated for a long time and didn't say anything.
Angel glanced at the locked door behind him, and said lightly: "There is a girl's soul inside, she is contaminated with a lot of blood, she must have killed a lot of people, ......right?" It's interesting that it hasn't fallen so far. β
"So, you're here to stop us from entering?" Ingres asked.
The little boy didn't know how Angel knew about the situation inside, but he still nodded: "As soon as Sunny wakes up, her personality will become very extreme, and if she sees a living person, she will go on a killing spree." She's a lot better than me, and if you don't want to die, you'd better get out of here. β
After the little boy finished speaking, he suddenly remembered that Angel was a demon, and it seemed that he should be worried about Sanny now, not the two of them.
"It seems that you don't hate humans too much?" Ingres: "You must have been killed by humans, right?
The little boy nodded, remembering the man who had killed him, and looked a little afraid: "It was Dean Thyssen who killed me...... But this has nothing to do with anyone else, and if you want to hate, you just hate Dean Thyssen. β
Angel looked at him deeply: "If that's what you really think, then...... A lot of humans don't understand what you think. β
As he spoke, Angel turned his head and reached into the keyhole with his mental power tentacles. Only the sound of clicking was heard, and a gap was revealed in the closed door.
"Are you really going in?" the little boy worried, "Although Sunny hasn't been out of here for months, I can feel that she's inside." β
Angel pushed the door open, and the rich smell of potion came from inside. At the same time, a chill of frost diffused.
"Your Sannie is indeed in there, but her condition at this point probably won't bother us. Ingres threw a light spell that illuminated the space inside the dark door.
Duru looked at the scene inside the door, his pupils shrunk in fright.
The first thing he saw was a little girl trapped in a strange blood array not far ahead.
About the same age as little boys, wearing red dresses and dark eyes, staring at them. When Duru looked at her, he thought of the red-clothed doll that had startled him before, and he felt hairy.
"She was trapped inside, unable to move. So, if you want to threaten us, it's not possible. Angel walked in first, standing outside the Blood Array.
"Sanny...... What's wrong with her?" the little boy's eyes flashed with anxiety, and while he was worried about Sunny's murder, he was just as worried about Sunny's safety.
Angel squatted down, looked at the circle array carved with blood, and raised his eyebrows: "It's not a magic energy array, the reason why it can trap her is because this blood seems to be full of a strange energy." β
"But instead of inquiring into the origin of this blood, I want to know, who trapped him here?"
