Chapter 21: The Battle of the Red and White Queens 7
Wen Ruo and Chen Huan glanced at each other, and they both saw the solemnity in each other's sight.
The two did not speak, and tacitly followed the cobblestone path of the garden in the direction of the castle, and the further they went, the more pungent the smell in the air became.
Even Wei Yang, who had always talked a lot, realized that there was something wrong at this time, put down the big grin on his face, raised his vigilance and followed behind the two.
The rest of the people didn't know what was going on, and looked blankly, this was not a successful way out of the passage, why did those people suddenly become so solemn? Although I don't know the reason, the experience cultivated in the dungeon tells them that it is better to be cautious and follow the big guy who can clear the customs, which is right.
Wen Ruo and the six of them had already reached the corner of the garden path, moving forward, turning, and a tragic scene appeared in their sight.
"Do I still have a chance to get back into the passage now?" Wei Qiuling gags, trying to adjust the atmosphere.
"I think you can give it a try and see if you can call that door back." Wen Ruo rarely accepted this ridicule, and picked up the joke with the most serious expression.
The sight was somewhat unacceptable to them, with corpses lined up and limbs strewn about, colorful organs, splashes of blood, and unrecognizable flesh foam.
"Gross..."
Wei Yang felt his throat constrict, and after just one look, he couldn't help but run to the side and vomit.
"I, I'm not afraid, I just feel disgusting." Wei Yang explained while spitting, Wei Qiuling was also pale, and she could see that she was enduring it very strongly, so she took out a bottle of water from the backpack behind her and handed it to Wei Yang.
"Thank you." Wei Yang took the mineral water, rinsed his mouth, and let out a long breath.
"I feel so much better, I have to be my sister." Wei Yang put his hand on Wei Qiuling's shoulder, and his face was the same pale as Wei Qiuling.
The state of the others is not good.,Before, they were all pampered in the base of the second generation.,The dungeons that have been experienced mostly rely on props and intelligence to clear the customs.,It's good to be able to hold back and not vomit.。
In contrast, the more than 20 people who followed behind, the first time they saw the scene on the path, all of them ran away.
Wen Ruo's expression at this time was quite normal, it was her usual calm expression, in this regard, she only felt a slight discomfort, she was caught by her roommate in the dormitory to watch horror movies before, and there were more disgusting and terrifying scenes in it, thinking about it this way, the scene in front of her seemed to be acceptable.
Wen Ruo tore off a piece of skirt, at this time it reflected the benefits of European-style clothing, the skirt was layered on top of each other, and there was no difference at all when one layer was torn off.
Some of them covered their noses, some of them wrapped their hands around them, and they picked at the open space that was not stained with blood.
Chen Huan had to admire Wen Ruo's acceptance, and once again raised his evaluation of Wen Ruo in his heart, so that he could still examine the corpse with a normal complexion. watched Wen Ruo walk into a corpse that was no longer humanoid and blurred with flesh and blood, squatted down, covered his nose with one hand, and rummaged over the corpse with the other.
Chen Huan couldn't help but churn in his chest and abdomen, and also ran to the flower bed.
"Gross..."
Wen Ruo's eyes were focused on the corpse in front of him, there were tearing marks on his throat, his abdomen was vigorously dissected, it looked like some kind of claw, his head was gnawed on the ground beyond recognition, looking at his clothes, the fabric was expensive, and the style was broken and he couldn't see it. It should have been running towards the garden when it fell, that is, the danger was coming from the castle, some kind of large beast.
"This trace," Liu Shiqin, who looked the weakest, was the first to slow down, and it didn't seem to be much uncomfortable.
"It's kind of like a 'locust.'"
"Locusts?" Wen Ruo's first thought was the Orthoptera locusts that gnawed on crops and crossed through the barb.
"'Locusts' is the code name we have acquired, referring to a group of mysterious forces that will destroy and devour replicas, just like locusts." Liu Shiqin explained
"This phenomenon is not common, I also saw it once in the materials recorded in the base, it said that the place where the 'locusts' appear will leave a mark, this is it."
Liu Shiqin pointed to a symbol not far from the corpse and said, the symbol is a messy mix of various lines, at first glance it looks like a child's casual graffiti, but after looking at it for a long time, you will feel that the symbol begins to distort and deform, and the line of sight is attracted, and the body can't move even though it knows that it wants to retract the sight.
Then, there seemed to be a black shadow in the sight, and it was impossible to see the face, but you know, a look of the black shadow can make you explode to death, it seems to notice you, and it flies from top to bottom, with boundless, unknown fear.
"Don't look too long." Liu Shiqin patted Wen Ruo's shoulder and woke her up from her vision.
"Thank you." Wen Ruo eased her mind and thanked Liu Shiqin for waking herself up in time.
"I can't be sure, that record is just speculation, and the code name of 'Locust' was also mentioned casually by that person, and there was no relevant content in the records of the base later."
"Well, do you know who wrote it? Conjecture about 'locusts'. "Wen Ruo was a little curious, what copy he had entered at that time, and what experience he had to have to escape from the 'locust'.
Liu Shiqin's expression faded, and her always gentle face also showed indignation.
"A traitor."
"What are you talking about?" Chen Huan and the others had also recovered at this time, at least even Wei Yang was able to walk in without changing his face, but his expression and movements were a little stiff.
"Nothing."
Liu Shiqin took the lead and smiled faintly at Wen Ruo.
"I was just asking Wen Ruo about the cause of death of these people."
Wen Ruo didn't know why Liu Shiqin didn't want to tell others about this, but she still continued, this was a matter for their small group, and they couldn't help but solve it themselves.
"Yes, I saw a few corpses, all of them were torn to death by wild beasts, almost one claw and one life, and people will continue to bite the corpses after death, so that the current situation has been formed."
"And it looks like they've all run out of the castle." Wen Ruo signaled the direction of the castle, just one or two hundred meters in front of the few people, was the back door of the castle, the door was wide open, revealing a dark corridor, as if inviting everyone to go.
"Shall we go in and check it out?" Wei Yang looked at the corridor and shivered.
"I mean, do we have to go in?"
"You, hello." A faint voice came from the side of the path near the garden, and Wen Ruo turned his head to recognize it as one of the more than twenty people who had followed behind him.
"We discussed it for a while, and then we won't leave with you." The man pointed to the lower right corner of the garden, "There's an exit over there to leave this castle, we want to look outside, maybe find Alice." ”
"Anyway, our current mission is to find Alice, isn't it?"
After the man finished speaking, without waiting for a few people to respond, he had already run away, and it seemed that if he stayed here for a few more seconds, he would not be able to bear it again.
"He's right." Wei Yang said along with the man's words just now
"Our current mission is to find Alice, is it necessary to explore this seemingly dangerous place?"
