There's really no way to pick up cross-world topics.,Jimmy has family and friends here.,There's also a job that he likes.,If you go to other worlds, there's nothing.,Although it's also interesting to see other worlds.,But after all, it's cross-world.,There's no way to contact your family except for going back and forth.。
He is different from Roland, Roland is a person from the Dark Tower World, for him to return to the Dark Tower World is to go home, he is very familiar with the situation over there, and he has lived on this side of the earth for many years, so he can be said to be the most familiar with the people on both sides.
Of course, you can come back if you go to the world of the Dark Tower, but Roland has a long time span of contacting Jimmy twice before and after, obviously this door through the world is not ready to use, and he left from New York, but he appeared in Maine, and this door is not fixed at all.
Jimmy and Roland entered the warehouse, let Roland stand on it, he entered the cave with a flashlight in his mouth, the mind and eye vision had been turned on before, but he didn't find much of a problem, and he didn't realize the problem when he came down and went into the cave to see the rotten spider monster.
This spider monster was too big, and he didn't think that this shadow on the cave floor turned out to be a spider monster, he originally thought that the cave floor was undulating or something fell on the ground, but he didn't expect it to be the torso of the spider monster, which was already about the size of an adult without limbs, and even a little wider.
Jimmy took the flashlight and looked at it carefully, because it had been dead for a while, the spider monster had shrunk, and some of it was rotten, and the smell was terrible, but he could barely imagine how big it was when it was alive before, and such a huge spider, just thinking about it felt weird and uncomfortable.
Jimmy took the flashlight and shone it inside, continued to observe with his mental eyesight, and walked inside, and soon came to the end of the cave, a rather large hollow, wider to the left and right, close to an oval, with many objects wrapped in spider silk on both sides, and it was impossible to tell what it was from the appearance.
He picked up the dagger and cut open one of them, a sour smell went straight to his nose, almost made Jimmy spit it out, inside was a person who had already melted a part, Jimmy immediately stepped back a little, came to the middle of the cave and looked left and right, there were nearly twenty cocoons here, if they were the same as the one he opened just now, this should be the spider's nest and storage room.
The most common predatory method of spiders is winding, using a large amount of spider silk to entangle the prey, inject toxic digestive enzymes, and then wait for the prey to melt and then suck into the stomach, this is mainly because the spider does not have teeth to chew food, and the fangs on the side of the mouth are used to kill the prey and inject venom, not for chewing, so the spider cannot bite and devour like other animals.
Although Jimmy doesn't remember this knowledge point very clearly, he has an impression of some extent, so these cocoons are undoubtedly the reserve food of the spider monster.
The smell here is getting worse and worse, Jimmy can't stand it anymore, turns around and leaves the cave, climbs up to the ground and returns to the warehouse, Roland pulls out a pistol and stands guard here in the warehouse, and only puts away the pistol when he sees Jimmy climb up, "How is it?" See? ”
Jimmy waved his hand and said as he walked out, "Let me catch my breath first, it smells so bad." ”
In fact, the smell in the crypt was fine at first, but after Jimmy cut through a tightly wrapped cocoon, it was completely impossible to stay in the near-closed environment underground.
After a good breath of fresh air, Jimmy said to Roland, "I have found the location of those residents, it is in the innermost space, it should be the storage room of the spider monster, I think everyone here should be in it." ”
Roland said expressionlessly: "So, what are you going to do?" ”
Jimmy thought for a moment and sighed: "I can't help it, they're hopeless, I don't know what to do, no department can handle this kind of thing." ”
Kicking the grass under his feet, Jimmy continued: "Also, this mutated spider must not be reported to the government, it is definitely not a native species of the earth, although it is a bit too much to say, but the ability of humans to die is unlimited, if it is known by someone with a heart, they will definitely cause a greater biological disaster."
Luckily, there's only one of them, and it looks like it's going to rot in a little more time, so it won't be too much of a problem if someone finds out. ”
Roland looked at Jimmy speechlessly, is this the time to think about this? Also, how do you know it's one? He also killed one in the Dark Tower World.
Roland: "Well, this is your world, just watch it yourself." ”
Jimmy glanced at his watch, although it was almost dark, but Roland had an injury on his leg after all, it was better to go to the hospital as soon as possible, "Let's go, now we need to go to the hospital to treat you first." Do you have an ID or driver's license? ”
Jimmy helped Roland back to the previous house, many of which had lights in them, but Jimmy was sure that there was no one inside, it was probably night when they were caught by spiders, and no one turned off the lights when they were turned on.
Roland had very few things, he only had a backpack when he came, but for a few days here, because he could find a lot of food reserves here, he didn't eat his own dry food and other things, and now Jimmy came to pick him up, so naturally he didn't need to bring it.
Roland cleaned up his bag, only keeping his own equipment, and a few clothes found from here, Jimmy watched Roland pack his backpack and suddenly said, "Roland! ”
Roland turned his head to look at Jimmy, and Jimmy pointed to his clothes: "I think you'd better change your clothes first, this one is a bit too eye-catching." ”
Roland was still wearing the same clothes he wore when he was in the Dark Tower World because he had to search for the spider monster before, after all, he was already familiar with it, and it would not affect his movements, and he didn't bother to change it after he was injured.
Black leather jacket, inside is a brown vest and blue-gray shirt, jeans, leather boots, brown old belt and gun holster, there are spare bullets on the belt, two revolvers, it can be seen that Roland usually cherishes his clothes, although there is a lot of wear and tear in the old, but there is no big damage, the only obvious damage is only to cut off a trouser leg for him to bandage.
It is not clear whether this dress is very special in the world of the Dark Tower, but it is definitely very eye-catching in modern society, and if Jimmy takes Roland to public, he will definitely be noticed.
It may be more suitable for travel and combat, but it definitely doesn't fit the urban or outdoor attire of modern people.
Roland glanced down, shrugged, and began to change the clothes he found before, forget the pants, make do with it first. He has lived on Earth for a long time, and of course he knows what the people here wear every day, but he has no idea of adjusting his clothes when he is alone.
Jimmy turned his head to look outside while Roland was sorting out his clothes and backpack, it was already dark now, this was not the Little Rock or New York that Jimmy was familiar with, it was not a good thing to travel at night, but in order to avoid the deterioration of Roland's wounds, he had to rush to the big city as soon as possible, so he could only hurry at night.
Jimmy first put his suitcase into the trunk of the car, then took a backpack in one hand, and helped Roland out of the house with the other, and when he opened the back door and was about to let Roland in, he was suddenly startled and hid directly to the side, Roland and Jimmy both fell to the ground, and a bunch of spider silk "snapped" on the body of the car.
Jimmy didn't get up, he immediately pulled out the revolver and pointed to the roof, Roland's speed was not slow, he also pulled out his gun and pointed it at the roof, "Bang Bang" Jimmy fired three shots in a row, and a black shadow bulging up from the roof suddenly fell backwards and left.
"Protect yourself." Jimmy shouted and immediately got up, holding the revolver and rushing to the back of the house, he was already staring at the black shadow, judging from the way it moved and the thin lines moving around, this was still a spider monster, those thin lines should be spider legs, here is not only the one Roland killed, careless.
Jimmy was chasing and wondering where this spider monster came from, Roland had been active here for a few days, and he had been here for hours, why did it appear at this time?
The spider didn't walk in a straight line, but moved back and forth between the house and the ground, and Jimmy had no choice but to climb over the fence to catch up, and finally saw the spider through the window into a house.
Jimmy came to the outside of the house and stared at the spider monster inside, it did not stay on the floor in the room, but shrank on the roof, Jimmy did not go in at all, but judged the angle and directly crouched down and shot directly from the window to the corner of the roof.
After three shots, another one was taken, and the spider monster had fallen from the roof, and Jimmy stood up and emptied the nest of the spider monster, and the spider monster finally stopped moving, except for some twitching of the spider's legs.
Jimmy looked left and right, focusing on places like the roof, and after making sure that he didn't find anything unusual for the time being, he climbed into the room through the window, turned on the flashlight and observed the spider monster on the ground, then lit the wall to find the switch, and turned on the lights in the house before observing the spider monster in all directions.
The gray-black spider, the size of the body part is about the same as what Jimmy saw in the crypt, the spider legs are very long, Jimmy kicked and unfolded, and found that the length of the long legs is more than two meters, but it is very thin, and it is not as wide as its body, and it does not seem to be difficult for such a big guy to capture humans.
Jimmy glanced up, and the corner of the wall where the spider had been staying had been woven out of spider silk, and it looked like it was supposed to be the place where it was hiding before.
The reason why Jimmy didn't observe it when he entered the village was because he didn't know what was going on here, and he didn't know that this spider monster was so big, all he was observing at that time was whether there were people in the room, whether there was danger, who would be staring at the roof.
There is another question, Roland only knows one spider monster, so he is looking for and chasing that spider monster, and now there is a second one here, so is there a third or fourth?
Jimmy cursed, got up and left the house, and walked to his car while looking left and right, Roland leaned against the station, holding a gun in his right hand and aiming at the left and right roofs, and when he saw Jimmy coming over, he immediately shouted, "Did you find it?" ”
Jimmy: "yes, kill one. He returned to the car, looked at Roland and said, "Roland, how many spiders are there here?" ”
Roland shook his head and put the revolver back into the holster, "I don't know, I chased one over, and I've been chasing that spider since then, and I don't know how many there are here." ”
Jimmy looked left and right, "Damn. Roland, I think maybe we'll need to wait a little before we leave, I need to check, it's better to get rid of all of them, if they multiply too much or leave here, the consequences will be terrible. ”
Roland nodded, Jimmy's performance just now showed his keen senses, his prediction of danger, and his marksmanship was also good, and his speed and strength seemed to be good, at least much better than when he met him before, he looked at Jimmy and said, "Can you be alone?" Need my help? ”
Jimmy: "No, you go back to the house and find a safe room to stay in, it shouldn't take too long to check here." ”
Jimmy opened the trunk as he spoke, took out the equipment bag from the trunk, grabbed two handfuls of the .44 Magnum bullets used in the revolver and put them in his pocket, then withdrew the empty cartridge case from the revolver to replace the bullets, and helped Roland back to the house just now.
Jimmy had checked, at least he didn't find anything unusual in the house, and it should be safe here.
Jimmy helped Roland onto the couch and said, "Be careful, I think there shouldn't be anyone else here but us, so ......"
Roland smiled slightly: "Don't worry about me, go ahead." ”
Watching Jimmy turn his head and leave the house, Roland pulled out two revolvers, put them on his lap, and while on guard, he was thinking about how to tell Jimmy about returning to the Dark Tower world, it was not so easy to persuade him, but it was not appropriate to catch him back directly, and he must have a good chat with him.
Jimmy left the house and started to move along the middle road, this time he knew what he was looking for, so the focus was to pay attention to the corners of each house, or the unusual shadowed parts, maybe the spider monsters were not moving, then their external appearance was basically an irregular object, this shadow is still relatively easy to identify.
The village is not big, there are only a dozen houses, and at this distance, Jimmy does not have to worry that some houses will be beyond his mental vision, and he does not need to enter the house, as long as he passes slowly from the outside, it will definitely be fine if he observes carefully.
After going back and forth several times, Jimmy made sure that there were no signs of spiders in all the houses and observable locations underground, and then returned to the house where Roland was staying, and took Roland with him and left.
