Chapter 86: Twenty Years Later (1)
The tentacles grew out of the black hole, like chasing prey, and followed behind Lin Yangluo unhurriedly.
Lin Yangluo had only one thought in his heart. She was going to run, she had to run back, run back to the car, and take everyone out of this place.
When they were in the car, they saw the road in front of them, and it was not a way to escape at all, it was just an illusion.
She was afraid that if she didn't go back, her friends would come looking for her.
You can't be dragged into this black hole, it's over when you drag it in!
With all her might, she ran in the direction she had come.
Originally, it was only a short distance of 100 meters, and she ran for a long time, but she did not find her companions.
Looking back, the black hole was still behind her.
The tentacles that snaked out of the black hole were still so far away from her.
Like a cat catching a mouse, he is not in a hurry to eat her, but plays with it first, so that the prey thinks that he still has hope of escaping.
Wait until the prey is exhausted, then eat it in one bite.
Lin Yangluo can now be sure that this area is really alive. She got out of the car and walked only about a hundred meters. With such a small distance, how can you run for so long and still be in place!
After running another distance for another quarter, Lin Yangluo turned back again, and the black hole was still in that place. The tentacles squirmed, but were not in a hurry to attack her, as if to mock her for the futility of running.
Lin Yangluo stopped, she turned around, and conjured up the bone sword in her hand.
"Come on, let me see what the hell you are!"
The shape of the black hole changed, and it expanded in her direction.
More tentacles protrude from the hole.
Lin Yangluo swung his bone sword and cut off a tentacle in front of him.
The severed tentacle wriggled on the ground a few times, and then turned and crawled towards the black hole.
There are more and more tentacles, and it is really a bit difficult to parry.
Lin Yangluo tried his best to conjure up a few daggers before he could barely cope with the tentacles that were attacking her.
The tentacles are endless.
Because the severed tentacles will crawl into the black hole again, and after crawling into the black hole, new tentacles will be born. New tentacles continued to attack her.
She already felt overwhelmed. Suddenly, her ankle felt cold, and she looked down to see that a tentacle she hadn't noticed had rolled up on her ankle.
It's the same location where the tentacles were entangled last time.
She was dragged by the tentacles like this, and she fell to the ground, sliding down the ground towards the black hole.
She wanted to use the psychic dagger to cut off the tentacles, but found that she couldn't. Because other tentacles will come to block her dagger.
At the moment before being dragged into the black hole, Lin Yangluo scolded in his heart: "What the hell is this, why do you always drag my ankles!" ”
Then she was plunged into endless darkness.
It's a darkness that swallows up all light.
But this darkness only lasted for a while, and Lin Yangluo fell to the ground.
The ground was full of potholes of dirt, and when you looked around, there were small red bags of dirt.
The dirt on the ground was unusually red.
She twisted a touch of dirt and put it on the tip of her nose, a bit like the smell of rust. This soil ...... It feels like it's red with blood, it's blood that doesn't know what it is.
Looking up at the sky, there is a red moon in the sky.
She didn't know where she was, it looked strange and unsafe.
The sound of a fight could be heard in the distance.
It's like two beasts duel.
Lin Yangluo made a decision immediately, she had to find a place to hide.
But it was bare all around, and she had nowhere to hide if she wanted to.
She walked in one direction, but soon she saw a fog in that direction.
The fog was a little black, not as pure white as the fog she had entered.
The black mist looks poisonous.
She stopped, hesitating in which direction to go.
As soon as she turned around, she finally got a glimpse of what was going on.
A large, somewhat octopus-like creature was wielding its tentacles, grappling with the insignificant human in front of it.
If you look closely, it's not a normal human, it's a zombie.
They are strong, agile, and more importantly, they have a silk thread extending from the top of their heads.
Because of the control of the silk thread, the zombies who were originally clumsy did not fall behind even in the face of such a huge and dangerous monster.
The fine threads stretch all the way to the distance.
Lin Yangluo was shocked, she also had the ability to control zombies with silk threads. But her ability is not so strong, she can't extend the silk thread so far, and she can't control the zombies to make such a flexible role.
It was better for her not to get involved in the battle in front of her, Lin Yangluo concluded. So she resolutely walked into the black mist.
She covered her mouth and nose as she walked in.
The black fog made her feel uncomfortable, but she quickly got used to walking in the black fog.
She hadn't gone far before she found a place with dense wooden signs.
She curiously walked over to look at it and found that these dense wooden signs were actually tombstones. On each wooden plaque, a person's name is written on it.
On the edge of the wooden sign, there is a corpse. It was a middle-aged man who was blackened all over his body and his face was covered in dried blood. The body had been dead for some time.
He's probably the last person here, so he's the only one who hasn't been buried in the ground.
Lin Yangluo looked at this humble cemetery, his eyes sour.
Why do these people live in a world in a black hole? How did they get here?
Next to this person, there is a worn-out notebook.
Lin Yangluo picked up the notebook and flipped through the words inside.
[This is about the twentieth year after the end of the world, in fact, I can't remember the specifics, but it feels like a long time has passed. Mobile phones have been unusable for a long time, so time can only be recorded manually. 】
[More and more people are dying, and the air here is full of toxins. A pregnant woman died the other day. Everyone was looking forward to the coming of new life, but in the last days, we will rarely see new life. But when she gave birth, her body was too weak to resist the toxins of the air. Newborns are too weak for us to save them without advanced medical equipment. Her husband also committed suicide after his wife and children died. 】
[There are fewer and fewer surviving humans, and it feels like humanity is about to perish.] I buried a middle-aged couple today, their son had died a long time ago, and before they died, they said that it would be nice if they could be buried with their son, and it would be a family reunion. But their son had been dead for so long that his bones had long been lost. 】
[There are more and more toxins in the air, and I feel like I can't hold it anymore.] 】
[There are less than twenty people left alive now.] 】
[Humanity is probably really going to perish. 】
