Chapter 143. In the third act, the fog is also the deep sea
Zhou Jinru took a breath of cold air, a nose of water vapor, the fog at night was really big, he didn't like this feeling at all, thinking that living in Lentinium for a long time was simply a destruction of the respiratory tract.
The guards who walked in front held up lanterns, as they were not sure if the lights in the tower would be knocked out again, and the abundance of lighting in the ranks also helped to maintain morale.
When they came to the fifth floor, they were still not stopped in any way, and the guards who stayed on the fourth floor said that the prisoners they were holding there said that they had moved and did not move on, and the bandits who broke into it did not seem to stay and went directly to the higher floors.
Don't have a half-stop?
Zhou Jinru was taken aback, he said before that Dr. Vasim was detained on the fourth floor, but he left without caring about it?
"Go on!"
On the sixth and seventh floors, the fog was getting thicker and thicker, as if they were in the clouds, and even the horse lantern in his hand could not provide much illumination, the warden stopped the progress of the procession, and they stopped at the seventh floor, where every cell was closed, leaving only a small opening, and at most only a pair of eyes could be revealed.
At this time, everyone reflected on a question that had been ignored before, where did the prison guards in the tower go?
The warden's expression was a little distorted, and he finally remembered that there were originally more than a dozen prison guards in the tower, but now none of them were found, and not only did they find the prison guards, but there was not even a trace of a fight.
That is, all prison guards are accomplices of the intruder?
That's impossible!
Zhou Jinru continued to narrow the scope of emotion detection, and he noticed that the deeper he went into the fog, the lower the accuracy of the detection, and only the whole body could be accurately detected.
The current situation is not an illusion, let alone mind control, because the mountain skill has no hints and no highlights.
"Can a tower not only go up, but also down? Isn't the lower level a warehouse, and there's something underneath the warehouse? ”
His doubts were unanswered.
The hearts of the people are shaking, and the best option is to immediately go down, and find a way to ask for help from the outside world and open the iron door that seals the tower.
"In groups of four, light up all backup light sources and close all outward-facing windows on the seventh floor."
In the end, the warden did not choose to leave the tower, but instead maintained the status quo.
Zhou Jinru and three other guards formed a team, lighting the burning light sources on the surrounding walls and closing the windows with wooden planks, which means that the tower already had a coping strategy in place.
Advertise, the book app I've been using recently, there are many book sources, all books, and fast updates!
The fog gradually dissipated in the closed environment, and Zhou Jinru saw clearly that the people around him were originally four people acting, but at this time, there were only three left, including three people.
"This can't be, John was still talking just now, where did he go?"
One of the officers' eyes widened in disbelief, like a fish on shore
Not only their group, but the seventh floor, which was originally quite crowded, suddenly became sparse, and a quarter of the people disappeared.
Zhou Jinru's scalp was numb, and he held half of his face with his right hand, he seemed to have seen a similar picture somewhere, and he couldn't remember it for a while.
The one who disappeared in the fog......
Fog......
Fog......
Mist Hunter ......
Hunt anomalous mist hunters against anomalous mist hunters......
In the deep night, the fog was filled with anomalies, and the hunters set off in full gear to hunt abnormalities and return the anomalies to order.
What is fog?
The fog is water, and the fog is ...... O deep sea, they are plunged into the fog, as if they were drowning in the deep sea.
Mist Hunter ...... Also a deep-sea hunter.
Zhou Jinru no longer hesitated, and shouted lightly: "Lighthouse." ”
The fierce bright light was like sunlight to dispel the fog, and the haze in front of them was removed, revealing their original appearance, and they stood in a pool of blood, and the dead were lying on the ground, most of them unable to look at them.
The nose inhaled a strong smell of blood, Zhou Jinru's face turned a little pale, and the guards who were still standing around him were even more unbearable, and many people held on to the wall in panic, opening their mouths and vomiting.
The warden didn't have time to find out what the bright light was just now, and after the fog cleared, he saw the truth, and he didn't even know if there was a similar situation in the layers below.
"Be careful!"
Zhou Jinru's eyes were sharp, he took out the long knife on his waist and stabbed forward, and a transparent figure was stabbed out of surprise and revealed in front of everyone, it was a monster with a disgusting appearance, similar to a human body, but with a skeleton-like body, the head was streamlined, the eye sockets were deep, hollow, no eyeballs, all limbs were complete, and a slender tail was dragged behind him, and there were conical spines at the top of the tail.
His headache struck again, as if someone had cut his skull with a chainsaw, and his ears were buzzing.
"What?!"
The nearest guard shouted, subconsciously waved the weapon in his hand, although the monster was knocked to the ground, the tail was very sensitive, the pale cone-shaped thorn was preemptive, straight pierced the guard's chest, blood sprayed out like a waterfall, the guard's eyes widened, he fell to the ground, and after a few convulsions, he did not move.
What the hell did you put out of it?
Zhou Jinru had a splitting headache, and a certain thought in his heart urged him to raise his weapon, he wanted to kill that kind of monster!
Click, click, click!
The humanoid monster quickly got up, and a second before it was about to become invisible, it saw a tall and thin man not far away rushing towards him, throwing the weapon in his hand, its steely body did not play any protective role, and the long knife pierced its body without accident.
The man moved extremely fast, and he had already rushed to the front, and as soon as he grasped the long knife, the blade of the knife peeked out from behind the monster and stabbed deep into the wall bricks.
The monster waved its forelimbs wildly, hitting the rigid shield with each blow, Zhou Jinru raised his fist, skewed the streamlined skull, and with his right hand, he thrust the long knife into the wall for a few points, and the monster stopped struggling, and soon stopped moving.
The warden frowned: "Who are you?" ”
"I'm not who I am."
Zhou Jinru covered his head, the headache did not ease, and his breathing became rapid.
The moment he turned, several guards raised their weapons against him, as if they were against a monster.
However, their movements were a little slower, and the tall and lanky man kicked the weapons scattered on the ground, shook off two fists, and knocked over three or four people in the blink of an eye, and in his right hand put a long knife used by the guard on the warden's neck.
"I'm a fog hunter, and as you can see, that monster is the fog ......"
Halfway through his words, there were still some monsters behind him, and only half of the long knife was still exposed outside the wall.
"Gone?"
The warden looked at the empty long knife, then at Zhou Jinru, and then at the corpse of the guard who was killed by the monster.
