Chapter 51: Sudden Death

There was not much hindrance from leaving the inn.

Colin and Donder came outside, and the cold and quiet air of the night wafted with the smell of local excrement and other mixed smells.

The streets are almost empty except for the occasional patrol.

Even when I saw those guys lying on the street during the day, they seemed to be afraid of the darkness of the dome at the moment, and they didn't know where to hide.

Although Colin now feels that the probability of escaping at night is also unlikely, and it is a waste of time.

But now even if I knew, I had to try...

"If the attempt fails, go to the aristocratic woman and see if you can use her to initiate an encirclement and suppression of that 'him'."

As Colin thought in his head, he quickly shuttled through the streets and alleys.

After easily avoiding some of the patrols of the Blackstone City guards, the two of them made their way to the city walls again.

Sniffing the various smells in the air, Colin found a weak spot where he was less guarded.

Looking up at the ten-meter-high city wall, he turned his head to look behind him:

"Can you climb?"

Tang Ken didn't answer immediately, looked up and observed, and noticed that the construction of the city wall was not regular, and there were many gaps, so he nodded: "Yes, I can climb more than ten stories with my bare hands when I have the opportunity." ”

"That's fine, you have to crawl over it as soon as possible, so as not to be discovered."

Colin reminded him, didn't say much, looked around left and right, and after making sure that there were no problems around him, he began to climb.

A minute later, the two of them successfully climbed over the wall that was like a moat for ordinary people.

Outside the city walls, a large number of poor people gathered, who had no place to live, but struggled to survive by hiding in groups at the edge of the city's fire.

Occasionally, there are campfires lit in some places, but the flames are not large.

"If the bonfire in the city is extinguished, most of these people will have to die without the risk, right?"

Colin glanced at them and thought of what was in the "Book of Numerology", mentioning that the greatest calamity of the time would begin here.

They are the lowest in the world, the first to be sacrificed...

Retracting his gaze, Colin took Don Ken towards the edge of the Firelight World, but he only walked less than two or three hundred meters before he stopped.

In front of the line of sight, at the boundary of the firelight, a faint layer of black haze diffused it.

It's at the edge of the light, against the outer darkness, it's inconspicuous, and it's basically hard to see if you don't get closer.

Syllable!

Colin took out a bottle of blended oil and threw it towards the black mist, thinking that it could easily pass through, but after hitting it, it was directly rebounded, falling to the ground and shattering.

Without much thought, he took out a lighter, lit a paper towel and threw it over.

Rumble!

A huge amount of fire burned, and a heat wave came head-on.

However, the raging flames had no effect on the Black Mist.

"What the hell is this floor?" Don Ken couldn't help but ask.

"I don't know yet."

Colin hesitated, took out a monocle from his pocket, pinched the upper and lower sides, and slowly approached the position of his left eye socket.

Puff~

The moment the lenses came to his eyes, his heart pounded, and a strong palpitation rose in his heart.

An image came to mind: his eyes widened, and he lay down with blood like this.

Immediately, Colin quickly closed his eyes and threw the lenses out.

But even so, before he shook it off, he saw through the lens a huge, terrifying figure behind the thin black mist.

Its body was as huge as half a mountain, and it let out a huge wail full of anger all the time.

"Ah!!h

Colin covered his left eye, blood continued to spill from his fingers, his brain tingled, he felt his soul tremble, and his body couldn't help but squat down in pain.

On the side, Tang Ken didn't know why, and wanted to step forward to help, but suddenly found that there were blood-red hairs on his captain's body, which grew rapidly like spring shoots...

An invisible aura of tyranny spreads rapidly.

What is even more counterintuitive is that the shadow under the captain keeps wriggling, as if something is about to swell out of it.

"What's going on?" Doncan gasped, not knowing what to do.

"Don't, don't come near me..."

After Colin said a word with difficulty, he tensed his body and struggled against the sharp pain in his brain one after another.

After a long while, the blood-red hairs on his body retracted, and he breathed a little smoother, regaining a certain but not much thought, and realized it at the first time.

This left eye of mine is scrapped.

Just looked at it for a moment.

One of my left eyes is gone.

Covered in cold sweat, as if he had been fished out of the water, Colin took two deep breaths, and there was a "buzzing" tinnitus on both sides of his ears.

He couldn't hear what Don Conn was saying next to him...

I took another look at the "analytical lens" that had been thrown on the ground, and saw that it was full of cracks, and it was already scrapped.

And to bring up the information related to it...

[Analytical lens (severely damaged, unusable): It costs 813 points to repair to the minimum usable state. 】

[Notes: I'm cracked...]

[Note: This item is contaminated, the type of contamination is "Breath of the Ancient God", and holding it for more than ten minutes may cause you to be watched by an unknown being, and suffer from "bestiality."] 】

"Scrapped."

Colin took a deep breath, he didn't expect that he just wanted to see if he could find a breakthrough from the black fog, but he didn't expect to almost die because of it.

He didn't even dare to think about what it was that mountain-sized thing he had just seen...

You can only divert your attention from thinking about it.

Then, he opened his resume and looked at it, and then the corners of his mouth twitched.

I saw a bunch of debuffs in the status column.

Including but not limited to "physical weakness", "neurasthenia", "left eye congestion and bursting", "vertigo", "temporary tinnitus"...

"It's uncomfortable."

Colin sat on the ground, his body shaking uncontrollably, shaking his head, only to feel that his brain was shaking like jelly, and he couldn't think about things well.

After sitting for a while, my body recovered a little.

"Captain? Captain? Doncan's voice seemed to come from the side.

"It's fine, a little hurt."

With a wave of his hand, Colin stepped forward to pick up the cracked lenses and put them in his pocket.

Then, take yourself a strip of nut chocolate and hold it in your mouth.

A hint of sweetness spreads in your mouth...

Then he took out the "Gluttonous Power Mark" and held it in his hand.

When holding this thing, Colin could feel what he had just eaten quickly being transformed into nutrients that were distributed throughout his body.

The body's functions are quickly restored in a few minutes...

The fly in the ointment is.

When using this thing, Colin had a complicated expression and didn't know what he was thinking.

At this moment, he felt a kind of speechless empathy for what happened to the judge of the "Evaluation Department".

But before I could think about it, a new task came to mind.
