Chapter 165: Chase and Sacrifice

The conversation was divided into two ends, when Luke was there to kill rats, Joseph had not yet driven halfway, and in the direction of the welfare home, he happened to see several buses coming towards him, and when he passed by the last car, Joseph vaguely seemed to see the two children he found last night.

After the battle of the Abyss Invasion, Phoenix City has not yet returned to its former bustling and lively, and there are relatively few vehicles on the road.

The siren sounded with a high-frequency tone and a short continuous sound, which quickly attracted the attention of the car in front.

Joseph slammed on the accelerator, chased to the side of the bus, glanced inside, and after making sure Jeanne and Hervé were in the car, picked up the megaphone and shouted, "Pull over!" Vehicles ahead, pull over immediately! ”

The bus driver glanced at Joseph in the rearview mirror, unmoved, silently pressed the accelerator lower, and followed the overall speed of the convoy.

The children in the car began to stir, and several slightly older and more courageous children got up from their seats and asked loudly, "Why don't you stop?" The police were calling us. ”

A few cultists disguised as staff members in the car slowly walked over, looked at them with unkind eyes, and said viciously: "Shut up! Sit back! ”

A young black man who had been in the gang left his seat, took out a small dagger from his pocket, waved it in his hand, and replied in a rebellious manner: "What are you hiding from us?" I'm telling you, I'm already a reserve member of the Black Hawks, I've killed people, you'd better put me down, we."

The powerful cultist walked straight up to him and slapped him to the ground, dropping the dagger in his hand under his seat. Looking at Xiao Hei lying on the ground covering his face and rolling, he didn't turn around and asked his companion, "Can this be killed?" ”

The other, a more advanced-looking, bespectacled cultist, shook his head, "It's all a sacrifice to the gods, make sure it's alive." ”

The strong man sighed, lifted Xiao Hei's two arms and lifted him up, used force with both hands, and directly broke his arm, Bai Sensen's bones were broken and punctured into the air, Xiao Hei screamed "Ah", the strong man frowned, ripped off a rag from Xiao Hei's body, gagged his mouth, and threw him back to the seat.

After doing this series of actions, the strong man looked around the carriage and found that no one dared to look at him anymore, so he obediently sat in his place with his head down. He smiled with satisfaction, pushed the children aside, opened the car window, and looked at Joseph, who was chasing.

After all, the bus is too heavy, and its acceleration and ultimate speed are much lower than that of the police car, and Joseph is about to lean in. He pulled out a pistol from his side, poked his head out, took a slight aim, and fired several shots in succession.

When Joseph saw someone peeking out of the window, he knew that something was wrong, and he slammed on the brakes, and the steering wheel jerked behind the bus. Due to the timely evasion, although the front windshield was pierced by bullets and hit several holes, he himself was not injured.

Frightened, Joseph knew that he could not stop the buses on his own, so he picked up the walkie-talkie and asked the police for help.

Soon, more than a dozen police cars drove out of the front and back of the police station, heading towards the position pointed by Joseph, and there were also patrolling patrols, and began to take a shortcut to intercept this side.

Inside the last bus, Hervé looked nervously at the brawny cultist.

Although he didn't know what the so-called "gods" and "sacrifices" represented based on his life experience, what had just happened made him understand that the staff of the "welfare home" in front of him were not as kind as he imagined, and they were likely to hurt himself and his sister.

He earnestly recalled what Andrew had taught him.

"These adults are much stronger than us, and they are also much more resistant than us, if you encounter adults bullying you, you really can't run away, just hit them here, generally no one can endure this kind of pain."

He had a little plan in mind, striking him in the crotch with his head, then grabbing his gun, and then threatening them with a gun to let them get out of the car.

Although this plan was ridiculously naïve, it was the only way he could come up to protect himself and his sister. As for the consequences of the failure of the plan, although Xiao Hei's broken arm looks terrifying, in the heart of the casual Elway, it is probably on the same level as his father's beating, although it hurts, but it can be endured.

Do what you think! Although Elway is immature, he is more mobile than the average adult, as can be seen from the decisive decision to run away from home with his sister.

Taking advantage of the moment when the cultist withdrew from the window, Herway stood up silently, and under the surprised and sympathetic eyes of the other children, he lowered his head and slammed into the cultist's crotch like a calf.

With a muffled "bang", Little Elway hit the target, then bounced back and sat on the ground.

The attack of the chickens and eggs, even the strong cultists vs children, made him a little unbearable, and squatted down covering the injured parts.

Little Elway raised his head and looked at the cultist, and was about to rush up to pick up the gun, but found that in addition to the first step that worked, the follow-up plan had completely failed, and although the cultist felt a little painful tearing, the pistol was still tightly held in his hand.

Failing to grab the gun, Hervé turned around and was about to pull his sister open the window and jump out of the car, but before he could stand up, the cultist had already digested the pain and stood in front of him.

The tower-like body formed a huge shadow, completely covering Herway.

"Boy, you are very bold, there is still a long way to go, let me take good care of you, and see if you are still so bold in a while."

He grabbed Hervé's collar with one hand and lifted him up, and slapped him with the other, and with a "snap", half of Elvé's face swollen.

When Jeanne saw her brother being beaten, she ran from the last row crying, grabbed the cultist's calf and bit it, and before she could get her mouth, she was kicked out and landed next to the seat. When the other children saw this, they were so frightened that they didn't dare to move, for fear that they would become the next target.

Before the strong man cultist could figure out how to concoct Elway, the man with glasses in front of him hurriedly said, "The police have set up a card, rush over, come and cover." ”

Thirty or forty policemen were densely packed in front, and a long strip of tire breakers was laid on the ground.

The first bus did not slow down, and when it was about to reach the blockade line, suddenly countless slender and flexible tentacles stretched out from the two windows of the body, slapping the policemen blocking the road away, and still had the strength to roll aside the tire breaker on the ground.

Now that the big men have chosen to be exposed, the strong man cultist no longer has any scruples, he turned his hands into tentacles covered with black hair, stretched out of the window, and with a burst of spiritual energy fluctuations, the black hair on the tentacles instantly straightened, and then shot out like arrows, densely attacking the policemen on both sides of the road.

The cultists each displayed different abilities, and the policemen who blocked the road did not dare to use high-powered weapons because of the large number of children in the car, and they did not dare to use high-powered weapons because of the bogey, and for a time they had no means to deal with it, and after sacrificing a lot of manpower, they could only enlarge the convoy and leave, and the surviving police officers who were not injured hurriedly drove and followed with Joseph.

They were afraid of the strange methods of the cult elements, did not dare to get too close, and were not at ease to get out of the children, so they could only follow the bus from a distance and keep a certain safe distance.

On the first bus, the driver glanced behind him and asked, "What should I do, do you want to stop and get rid of these bugs first?" ”

In the passenger seat, a lump of material that looked like a colloidal mollusc hardened and condensed, and finally turned into a human form, and said lightly: "No need, let them follow." When they reach the Holy Land and the presence of God appears on the earth, they will know what true horror is. ”

There are more and more policemen following behind the bus, and the lives of hundreds of children, not to mention Phoenix, even if the commander comes, he has to tremble, in addition to the Tvina District Police Station, the Phoenix City General Police Station, other sub-bureaus, and special affairs handling brigades, all exploded and began to send people there.

Luke had just finished dealing with the leader of the cult and before he could catch his breath, he received a call from Joseph, learned about the current situation, and hurriedly rode on Halpie to hurry.

Soon, the police knew the cultist's destination - the Abyss Battlefield Forbidden Zone.

The abyssal contamination there has been mostly disposed of after several rounds of cleanup, so the FBI has left only a few people to take care of it, and it is currently largely defenseless.

Without waiting for the police to remind them, the FBI personnel who remained in the restricted area were secretly attacked by cultists lurking in advance, and the only defensive force in the restricted area was quickly defeated, the gate of the forbidden area was missed, the left-behind personnel were killed, and the cultists rushed in.

The children were driven off the bus, and more than a dozen cultists watched over them, urging them to walk towards the center of the exclusion zone. There were seven or eight half-human, half-rats with no longer visible human form, covered in scales and tentacles, carrying a strange stone statue of the god and placing it in the middle of the pond that had been used to keep water for fish.

The half-rats, dressed in black robes, gathered around the idol and began to chant incantations in a low and eerie voice, as if they were from hell.

As their movements grew more frantic, the idols seemed to respond to their calls, emitting a thick, sticky, damp mist in all directions. Soon, the fog was submerged, extending beyond the exclusion zone.

In the mist, faintly, there seemed to be the sound of some rodent grinding its teeth and the squeaky sound of "squeaking".

Hearing this voice, the soft-bodied figure showed a hint of disappointment in his eyes, it was the "guard" who had been hiding in Clegg's office before, only at this time, he looked more like the leader of a cult than Clegg.

He said to those around him, "It seems that it was the Great Horned Rat God who answered the call, and the great Cthulhu was not interested in sacrifices. Go, send those sacrifices. ”

A black-robed man with a tentacle on his face left his side, groping his way through the fog to deliver his orders.

These fogs not only obscured the police's vision, it seemed that even cultists could not see through it, and could only rely on the routes and locations in their previous memories to find little by little.

Outside the forbidden area, watching the fog gradually disperse, Joseph, who was anxious, did not explain to the others, put on body armor, took two pistols, stepped on a rifle, and took advantage of the fog to spread outward, and went directly into it.

In the center of the forbidden area, the first few children were thrown directly into the fish pond by the cultists around them, and the rest also noticed the mutation, took advantage of the fog to block their vision, and began to flee for their lives.

After arriving at the destination, the cultists no longer worried about accidentally killing the sacrifice, and their movements became rude, and their tentacles waved wildly in midair, rolling up all the children they touched and throwing them into the sacrifice arena at will.

Soon, from the "sacrificial field", that is, the original pool, there was the sound of rustling fur rubbing, then the cries of fear, the wails of pain, and the sound of countless flesh gnawing and eating.

Eventually, the wails disappeared, leaving only the "creaking" grinding of the rodents' sharp front teeth against the bones.

After a while, there was another "poof" and "poof" sound of landing, and the above sound repeated the cycle again.

Because Hervé was taught another lesson in the car, he limped when he got out of the car, and naturally fell to the end of the line, and at this time he and Jeanne were in a slightly better situation.

As the crowd began to flare and flee, Hervé remembered the common sense of survival that Andrew had taught him.

"When there was a crowd riot, we couldn't outrun the adults, and it was easy for us to fall and be trampled to death. Don't run around at this time, find a sturdy cover, then lean against it and use it to protect yourself. ”

He held his sister's hand tightly, and slowly groped his way to find a cement pier he had just noticed in the direction he remembered, and asked his sister to squat down against the cement pier, hugging her behind him, and shielding his back from possible external injuries.

Time passed minute by minute, and from time to time there was the sound of a whip breaking through the air around the two, occasionally mixed with the sound of children crying and struggling after being rolled up, Elway hugged his sister tightly in fear, and the two stuck to the cement pier to minimize their own force area, clenched their teeth tightly, and did not dare to cry out.

At this time, gunshots began to appear intermittently in the dense fog, and the policemen also began to enter the forbidden area under various pressures, but it was obvious that in this dense fog where they could not see their fingers, the modern weapons in their hands were far less convenient than the tentacles of the cultists, and soon, the policemen who entered the dense fog were forced to disperse and suffered heavy casualties.

Although she couldn't see the horrible sight outside, Jeanne could still sketch out the mist in her mind through the wails, and she drilled into her brother's arms again, as if that way she could have a little more security.

Amidst the whistling and wriggling of tentacles, the sounds of escape, wailing, and gnawing, Jeanne suddenly heard a very discordant voice.

A man, in a low voice, hurriedly called out his own name and that of his brother.

"Jeanne", "Hervé", "Are you there?" ”

Jeanne carefully recalled, it seemed to be the voice of the very kind bald uncle yesterday.
