"Tick, tick, tick......"

The sound of water droplets dripping echoed through the dimly lit passages, and every now and then a drop or two slammed into Lance's face. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 InfoLance probed the darkness ahead with a torch in his right hand, and walked forward with a rapid pace under his feet.

The secret passage is not too difficult to walk, and the straight alleyway is paved with neat small bluestone slabs. Perhaps because it is closed all year round, the walls and floors here are not too worn.

At this time, the white dragon princess Loxani, who was flying closely behind Lance, said: "The air in here is so humid, it makes me a little uncomfortable. ”

"Then don't fly yourself, come up to my shoulder. ”

"I'm fine...... Hurry up, time waits for no one. ”

Although Lance was very worried about whether there would be anything scary in such a dark environment, in fact, this worry was completely unnecessary. Lance didn't encounter any zombies in the secret passage. Instead, he soon reached the end of the secret passage, where there was a modest stone door. The stone door was struck by a tight fit between the wall, and there was a noticeable trap button on the side.

"It seems that it has arrived. Lance dangled in front of the door with his torch for a moment, looking at what seemed to be the only button.

Lance put the torch under his right armpit, and was about to reach for the button.

"Once we open the door, we have to take a good look at the environment in Ménice and work out a set of tactics and routes. You must be calm! ”

Roxani nodded her head and said, "Got it." ”

After instructing the precautions, Lance gently pressed the button of the mechanism. The stone gate immediately made a "click-click" sound of the mechanism operating.

Then the stone gate began to move slowly to the right. The shaking of the huge stone door caused dust to fall on the walls, like a waterfall. It seems that this door has not been opened in some years.

As the light in the crack of the door grew brighter and brighter, Lance waited with a hint of anticipation for the door to open completely. After all, I've been listening to things about Ménice for so long along the way, and this time I can finally see the real thing. Lance's blank memory diary could be used to write down his experiences again.

Lance completely forgot that this current Ménice and Veronica's previously described peaceful, serene, and orderly Ménice were completely different things. Now the town is full of zombies that bite people like crazy.

But when the door "booms" and opens completely. Lance saw the scenery outside the door, and suddenly the expectant smile seemed to be attacked by a super cold snap, and it condensed on his face in an instant. Then it turned into an embarrassed smile.

It turned out that at this time, Lance saw that four or five pairs of yellow eyes were also staring at him blankly, as if they were equally surprised and surprised by Lance's appearance.

The eyes, though they looked like human eyes, hung on a gray face full of ringworm and rotting pus. It was like holding glue on his head, and some scattered hair was weakly sticking to it. Their lips looked like they hadn't drunk water for hundreds of days, severely dehydrated, atrophied, wrinkled, and cracked into sections, revealing long, yellowed teeth with no gums inside. The green slurry between the teeth flowed down the cracked gap in the lips to the chin, making you want to vomit just looking at it.

And they wore all kinds of clothes, some were scruffy tenant farmers, some were craftsmen in protective bags, and so on. What they all have in common, however, is that the exposed skin is covered with all sorts of festering sores that are rotting and draining pus, and in many places they have ulcerated so much that white bones can be seen.

According to the knowledge left in Lance's head, this is obviously the ......

"I'm a zombie!"

Just as Lance and the White Dragon Princess Roxani shouted this sentence in unison. The five zombies reflected at the same time, their faces were magnificent, their disgusting mouths were wide open, and they turned around and began to roar. The already terrifying face is now even more twisted and terrifying. Then they let out the zombie's characteristic low roar, and they directly rushed towards Lance inside the stone gate in a rage. Their raised hands went straight to Lance's neck.

At the last moment, Lance hurriedly took the torch in his hand and shoved it in the direction of the scruffy tenant farmer zombie who rushed to the front. The head of the blazing torch was shoved directly into the zombie's roaring mouth.

I only heard the torch emitting a scorching sound. The loss let out a cry of pain, and a fire quickly burned from the mouth to the whole body.

Lance saw that the fire was burning rapidly, so he hurriedly pushed the torch stick violently. The burning zombie was pushed straight backwards. And the few zombies behind the zombie were also like pushing dominoes, and they all fell in one fell swoop.

At this point, Lance didn't care about anything else. Hurry up and take a stride, draw the broken sword, and run away with the white dragon princess Roxani. Hurried out in the direction of the door.

As soon as Lance went out with the broken sword, he found that he was on a street, but fortunately there seemed to be no zombies on the street.

The streets paved with smooth gravel are not wide. The gravel pavement glows white in the moonlight. The European-style buildings on both sides are close to each other, like two rows of giants standing on either side of you, looking down on you. It gives people a very inexplicable feeling of depression. It seems that the buildings on both sides will fall on you at any moment. At the end of the street, on the left, you can see the towers of the mahogany chapel rising high above.

After determining the direction, Lance hurriedly ran in that direction. The White Dragon Princess, Roxani, followed closely behind Lance. But the echo of Lance's running was unusually noticeable in this long, silent street. Even if you accidentally kick out a small rock occasionally, the crisp sound of "da-da" can be heard far along the street. The "pop" sound of the white dragon princess Loxani flapping her wings was also unusually clear.

But Lance didn't care about so much, just ran forward. The road was silent, but soon Lance heard the sound of a fire burning behind him. Lance hurriedly turned around curiously, and it turned out that the room at the entrance to the secret passage he had just escaped was on fire. It seems to have been caused by the zombie that was lit by the torch. But Lance can't care so much, after all, sending Naherney's magic flower is the first place.

As soon as Lance turned around, a breeze blew, and it seemed that the breeze brought a strange sound.

"Woo ......" seems to be the sound of a woman crying, and the cry spreads with a hint of ghost in the silent narrow street. The cry seems to be very real, but it also gives a sense of mirage nothingness.

Lance gradually stopped running, and a trace of doubt appeared in his heart: "Is there a woman trapped here?"

"Lorney, do you hear anything?"

The White Dragon Princess Loxani listened carefully and said, "It seems to be the sound of a woman crying." ”

They looked to the left of the voice, and there was a narrower path that ended in darkness. Listening to the cry that reverberated with a shudder in the back, both of them shuddered.

The White Dragon Princess Roxani asked with a hint of doubt, "Are we going over?" ”

The rational thinking in Lance's heart also told himself that such a strange thing was definitely a trap. So Lance decided to turn around and focus on completing Veronica's mission.

But as soon as he turned his head, the little angel in Lance's heart rushed out and asked, what if the owner of this cry was really a weak woman waiting for rescue? Wouldn't he be a bastard and a coward, but also an indirect murderer.

Lance gritted his teeth, and complained to himself angrily, but his body turned honestly. He walked into the dark alley: "Damn! Let's go and see, and we'd rather save a thousand wrong than not save it." ”

"Okay......" The White Dragon Princess Loxani had no choice but to follow.

As we went deeper into the alley, the cry became clearer and clearer. Even the clarity was a little scary, like a stereo surround sound filling Lance's ears. Lance was on his right, his right hand holding the broken sword in front of him, guarding against any sudden eventuality.

After walking for a while, Lance seemed to vaguely see a girl who was kneeling on the ground with her back to her, and the cry was indeed from her.

She wore a long dress as white as snow, and her dark blue hair like a waterfall fell to the ground. Her hands kept wiping away tears, and the sound of sad sobbing could not help but make anyone's heart flood with sympathy and pity.

Lance saw what seemed to be a weak girl. So the heart that had been nervous and defensive also relaxed.

He put down his right hand holding the broken sword, walked up behind the woman, and asked worriedly, "This young lady, are you okay? Don't be afraid, I'm just going to the Redwood Chapel, I'll escort you there. ”

Hearing Lance's voice, the woman stopped sobbing, then slowly turned her head, and at the same time, a voice with a hint of ghost and evil smile came out of the woman's mouth: "Thank you, but you don't have to go there, I just want you to become my slave and feel my pain!"

When she said this, her face also turned. Lance's eyes widened for a moment, and he saw a white human female face as white as snow and no impurities, with a pair of white eyes without pupils and lips as red as blood.

The white dragon princess Loxani immediately shouted: "Banshee, run!"
