Chapter 359: Monsters in the Fog Zone
Go, go forward.
Bai Su walked leisurely on the road.
He took Qi Zhuyue around in a circle and went around to the back of the hotel.
As they walked, the humans seemed to feel the shift in their bearings.
Qi Zhuyue felt like this, so she asked: "...... Turning a corner? β
"yes." Bai Su led the way in front, turned the intersection and walked around the back of the hotel, "We turned a corner." β
In fact, the human woman who wanted to ask Bai Su where she was going didn't get an answer, so she could only follow silently, and she didn't even have any other choice.
She wanted to go out of the way, but there was nothing but fog around her, and only when she turned back could she notice that the fog on the road they had walked seemed to have faded.
Why is that? Humanity didn't figure it out.
Qi Zhuyue was still thinking, and Bai Su suddenly stopped.
Bai Su stopped at the back of the hotel, and he looked upstairs, directly below the broken window, where the blonde youth had jumped down.
For example, the bushes next to the road in front of you are dotted with blood stains, and when you peel through the bushes, you can see more large areas of blood.
However, the blonde young man who should have been lying there was gone, probably waking up early, and he escaped from this fog area all the way.
Qi Zhuyue followed.
Because the fog would fade wherever Bai Su went, she saw the blood in the bushes on the side of the road, and the human female exclaimed in surprise.
"What is this?"
"Obviously, the cult man jumped from the stairs."
Qi Zhuyue raised her head when she heard this, only glanced at her and gave up.
She couldn't see anything but white or white.
Qi Zhuyue could only seriously study the visible blood stains on the ground, and after looking at it, she found that the cultist was bleeding a lot, and then looked at the other side of the road, and could see an intermittent blood path extending forward, and finally submerged into the fog area.
Looks...... The cultists seem to have run away with injuries, but they don't know if they ran sooner or later.
Asked Bai Su with questions, the black-haired young man thought about it, and finally gave an unclear answer.
In fact, Bai Su knew that the blonde youth had left when he was half-out of control, and that was most likely to wake up later.
Qi Zhuyue checked the blood stains for a long time, but she couldn't collect anything because she didn't have the props at hand.
The things she brought were all taken out and turned over at that time, the electronic equipment failed, and some items with supernatural properties were completely destroyed.
Destroyed by what? It was damaged by the fog that swept by.
There was no way, Qi Zhuyue could only use the most rudimentary plastic bag to dip it a little, which could be regarded as a little effort.
After she finished loading, she went to study the rest of the grass, and after finding only the creases that had been bent, she prepared to go back to Bai Su.
She also wanted to ask Bai Su how she found it...... Hey?
When she turned around, she didn't see anything.
No, you can't say that there is nothing, the middle-aged man who was wrapped in a sheet and tied to death, lying there peacefully, with a white cloth on his face to pretend to be a corpse.
Other than that, not a single one.
What about the Baisu people?
Qi Zhuyue took two steps back, and she retreated to the middle-aged man's side.
There was no figure on the way here, and the direction of progress was shrouded in white mist, and the human female suddenly fell into an infinite loneliness, and even the slightest sound would echo and then return to her ears.
Qi Zhuyue couldn't hold back and shuddered.
At this time, she realized more how important it was to have a companion who could talk in such an environment, and now she was like a lone character in a horror movie, a kind of ...... Very dangerous feeling.
"Whew...... Call. The human female gasped twice.
Now, she had a premonition that something would suddenly burst out of the mist.
Is it a hunch or an illusion? Qi Zhuyue couldn't tell that she hadn't thought about it for a moment when her inspiration suddenly exploded, so that she could find some clues.
To be on the safe side, she felt that she should find a place where there was not much ventilation on all sides...... Or stay put? But she really felt a chill down her spine, as if something was coming out of her back.
In the end, Qi Zhuyue still moved, she grabbed the ground wrapped in a single horn of the middle-aged man and dragged it violently, she didn't take the roads that were not cleared of the fog, she just dragged the person into the bushes.
Further back from the bushes is one of the walls of the hotel, which is better on three sides than on four.
The heavy human body left deep drag marks on the turf, and the blood was also pressed, and it was also smeared, forming a long strip, like a corpse dumping scene.
Qi Zhuyue pushed the middle-aged man against the wall, and just as she was about to bend over and get up, something hit her shoulder from behind.
A soft, gentle touch rubbed it on her shoulder.
Silently, what is approaching?
β¦β¦
On the other side of the white fog, people from the special department are still trying to penetrate deep into the fog area.
After using all the methods they could think of, but to no avail, they changed to a carpet search after judging that the white mist could be filtered for the time being and did not cause much damage to the human body.
A satellite map of the neighborhood was called up, and the people who went in explored it step by step, as shown on the map.
In the fog, there were ordinary people lying on the ground, and there were cars that lost control and crashed into the roadblock.
Fortunately, all the equipment in the white fog has failed, even the car has not been spared, the fire seems to rise a little and then extinguished, the driver's seat and passengers in the car are not hindered except for external injuries, which is a blessing in misfortune.
"So what's going on with this fog?"
"I don't know...... In addition to feeling difficulty breathing after inhalation, the throat is hot and painful, and the eyes are not very comfortable. β
"What else? Oh, and the fog itself doesn't blow away, and there doesn't seem to be anything else besides that? β
Although the problem of the fog not blowing away is very serious, there is no time to take care of it at the moment.
The team members who were searching for survivors wore masks and joked, "Fortunately, there are no strange creatures in this fog...... Did you watch that horror movie a while ago? That is to say, the city is suddenly shrouded in fog, and it can't make a sound or anything, otherwise it will be captured by the monsters in the fog-"
As they were talking, the two team members suddenly heard a click, as if some branch was being trampled on.
For a moment, both of them fell silent.
After listening carefully for a while, no new sounds were heard.
"Haha, did you hear me wrong? Should we be the only ones around here? β
"Look at the distribution like this, this visibility is that two people can still see each other when they stick together, and one more person will-"
"Click."
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦οΌβ
"Did I hear me wrong?"
"No, no, it seems to be a voice."
One of the two team members hesitated and shouted softly to the side, even calling the names of several colleagues in the nearby area, but no one answered.
There was silence in the mist, as if it were just a human illusion.
The "Ha ......" team member let out a breath, "Foggy...... It can't be ......"
ββ¦β¦ Don't say anything scary. The other said, taking a step towards his companion and trying to keep them side by side, foot to foot.
The sound they heard was not an illusion or a hallucination, and after a few more silences, a small sound appeared.
It was certainly not the sound of a person walking, nor was it at all the sound of any kind of creature walking within the scope of human cognition.
At first it was a little bit of a soft limb dragging a friction on the ground, and then occasionally stepping on something on the ground, maybe a fragile branch, maybe a hard railing, and it was crushed inch by inch.
Because of the obstruction of vision, these images are made up by the human brain.
is also because it can't be seen, there will be a difference in the picture imagination, and people unconsciously make up for the movies they have watched.
There are monsters in the fog, there are terrible monsters.
Want to run? Theoretically, they shouldn't just act rashly.
The white fog was thick, but as the sound approached, a black figure began to appear in the fog.
The black shadow grew very tall and strong, and there was no specific form, it was a reunion for a while, and then it turned into a strange body with protruding edges and corners, and the blurring of the fog made the judgment of the human eye even more blurred.
Seeing the black shadow getting closer and closer to the direction where the two team members were, the human felt that he couldn't stand there stupidly.
They tentatively took a step back, their pace very light, and the black shadow in the fog seemed to be unresponsive, and then took another step, still unresponsive.
The two men gestured twice with their hands behind their backs, and then they ran in unison and began to run towards the nearby streetside storefront.
As far back as they can remember, there was a clothing store nearby, and the door was still open when they checked, and now they just ran in and closed the doorβ
The human footsteps were as soft as they could, and they ran into the clothing store, and when they glanced back, they saw that the black shadow had remained in place, and the figure had faded, so they closed the door and locked it.
"Whew......" they all breathed a sigh of relief, "what the hell is that?" β
The fog inside the clothing store is still very thick, but the lights are on and the brightness is acceptable, at least there is no dark shadow outside.
The two team members gathered together in a low voice, lowered their voices, and gestured with their hands.
They are communicating what the dark shadow is.
At first glance, you know that this is not a normal creature, a supernatural creature? Does this dissipating fog have anything to do with it? It feels like there must be a connection...... It's just that they don't know now.
The two of them compared for a long time, and agreed that the black shadow was related to the fog, and they didn't know if there was danger, but if they thought it was dangerous, their movements were not enough to attract the attention of the black shadow.
So, is it time to find a way to get the word out? Has anyone else encountered this monster? β
I don't know, you don't know, you can't use any communication equipment here, there is no way to communicate with each other in close proximity. β
'That'...... Do you want to wait for the monster to leave for a while and we go out? β
'Okay, take a look at the monster first-'
They exchanged a special code for a while, and just as they were about to turn their heads to see if there was a faint black shadow outside the glass window, they turned their necks, and both of them froze in place.
Eyes, one eye looking at them.
The eyeballs that were detached from the sockets were flattened against the glass, and dense blood streaks were all over them, and there were not many whites of the eyes, more black pupils.
The black almost covered the entire eyeball, making it very strange, not at all like human eyes, nor like other creatures.
But the question is, why are there eyeballs here?
The human's scream stuck in his throat, his dry throat screaming twice without a word, and then the whole person fell backwards uncontrollably, pressing his hands backwards and pressing them to the ground to support himself.
I wanted to get as far away as possible from the glass, but I moved a little bit in total, and the fog blocked the view slightly, but the eyeballs were still faintly visible.
Not just one eye, but more eyes came with something, all pressed against the glass window of the clothing store, and looked inside without blinking, looking at the two humans in the clothing store.
Like ...... It's like observing a creature in a cage.
The subjects felt unwell, very unwell, and the nausea sensation of numbness on the scalp instantly crept all over their bodies, and they coughed dryly twice, but they did not really vomit out due to the restraint of their equipment.
Outer...... What is it? Eye...... There are a lot of eyes.
Even thinking has become dull, and the human only hears the rattling of his own joints, what is he doing? Oh, he's moving his arms and legs, but his hands and feet don't listen, like a puppet with unwound work.
Eye...... What the hell is that...... What creatures......
Humans struggled to think, and they seemed to see that the substance that encased the eyeballs was white, squeezing together on the glass like cotton, slowly wriggling.
Eyes, eyes...... Many, many eyes.
Many, many eyes were on him...... Looking, peeping, peeking...... Eyes, white eyes, black eyes, all of them...... It's all pouring in!
White...... Yes, white, so why do you see black shadows?
Human consciousness has been blurred for a long time, and suddenly at a certain moment, human beings can move.
β¦β¦ Wait, he'...... Is he able to move freely now?
At some point, the dense wall of eyes disappeared and left, and the glass window was empty, except for a sticky water mark, as if it represented that something had just arrived.
One of the team members swallowed dryly and reached for his teammate.
His hand didn't reach far enough to reach the person, and his teammates were the same as him, but their hands and feet were numb, they were in a trance, and a cold sweat broke out on their backs.
No matter how difficult it was to get up, the two of them still got up.
They observed for a while, not daring to go through the main entrance, and fumbled around the interior of the clothing store for a while, and finally found a small door in the warehouse that led to another knot.
Thankfully, the eyeball-covered white monster that left wasn't on the trail behind, and the members of the Special Division quickly followed the map and left the area they hadn't yet explored.
The humans stumbled and ran, and their huge figures reappeared in the white mist.
It blinked its eyes, and then its pupils began to shrink, and its body shrank with it, and suddenly it changed from a mountain to a small lump.
The white dog in the shape of a Bichon Frise sat in place, raised its front paws and licked it twice.
The white dog is the monster itself as seen by humans.
