10 Darkness Strikes 02
Two or three minutes actually go by very quickly. Especially at the speed of this mist-like thing that Alda called the treacherous fog, in fact, it took less than a minute and a half to reach almost a kilometer or two from the church.
At this time, a sparse crowd appeared outside the church, rushing to the church in panic and shouting. Behind him, the fogless one was chasing after him.
Alda raised a torch and shouted, "Quick, speed up!"
When the people who were running saw the fire, they undoubtedly saw hope, and as if they had been given a shot in the arm, they rushed in the direction of the church with all their strength.
As the thick fog layer got closer, Yang Yi noticed that the color of the sky was beginning to become darker, as if the sun had begun to be covered, and the darkness was spreading little by little.
People were still running, young and strong running fast, old and frail or women, mixed with a few children but couldn't run so fast, and were soon caught up by the fog. The moment they came into contact with the dense fog, the fog was like a living one, and immediately closed around and enveloped the person, and Yang Yi saw that the blurred human body in the dense fog suddenly bounced backwards, disappeared after screaming in terror, and did not reappear, as if it had been swallowed by the dense fog.
The fog was rushing, and the people in front were deaf to the screams behind, and they ran faster and faster. The one who was about to be caught up by the fog behind cried out for help in horror, begging the people in front for a favor. It's just that in the process of running for their lives, who cares about who so much? The selfishness in human nature is most fully manifested at this time.
Yang Yi had completely changed color, holding the torch in his hand and trembling, and said in a trembling voice: "What should I do now?" swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and said, "Do you want us to take the torch and go over to help them?"
Alda said in a deep voice: "Everyone asks for more blessings, and no one can bear the fog." Those with long legs can live, and those with short legs can only sigh that they are unlucky, no one can save those who are devoured, and none of those who go into the fog can come back alive. ”
"Where have they gone?"
"I don't know what to do. Alda replied briefly, her eyes fixed on the fog, and said nervously: "In less than thirty seconds, the fog will be approaching." Everyone listen! Close the church door after twenty seconds, no matter what you hear or see, you must not open the door!" turned his head and whispered to Yang Yi: "You, stand back." If your dark constitution comes into contact with that fog, no one knows what will happen. To be on the safe side, you stay furthest away from it. ”
Yang Yi nodded, and was about to retreat, but saw a woman rushing out of the ground, her shoes had long since disappeared, and she was running towards this side with her bare feet dripping with blood and hair.
At this time, the fog is getting closer and closer to the church, and the sky is darker. But as it approached the church, its speed slowed down, and it seemed as if an invisible force was holding it back.
Nord also saw the woman, and rushed to the door of the church with a change of face, and shouted, "Tilia!
Tilia looked up and looked this way, the moment Yang Yi looked up, he had already seen her face sweating profusely, there was an abnormal flush on her whole face, and her strength seemed to have been exhausted, and she would fall down at any time.
Nord clenched his fists and propped the torch forward, as if it would dispel the fog. "Tilia, run!" he roared, blood bursting from his neck. "I'll help her!"
"No!" Alda grabbed Nord and growled, "Don't put yourself in it." Whether she can survive or not depends on her own persistence! Give me some reason! Now is not the time to go crazy and act as a hero to save beauty.
Nord froze, then stopped struggling, threw out the torch in his hand, and shouted, "Tilia, pick it up!"
The woman, Tilia, gritted her teeth and ran desperately towards the church, and the torch thrown by Nod landed not far in front of her.
Yang Yi looked at it in a daze, and his heart was all hanging in the air for the safety of this woman.
The woman was clearly determined, and rushed towards the torch with all her might, and the fog seemed to slow as she got closer to the church, and it had already opened up a little distance from the woman. Some of the people in front of her had managed to storm the church, while most of those behind had disappeared into the fog.
In five more steps, Tilia will be able to pick up the torch, and this symbol of light will definitely give her some help and strength.
Suddenly, a teenage boy fell to the ground in front of Tilia on the left, and the woman, who was already a strong bow, hesitated for a moment, suddenly turned in a different direction, dropped the torch and ran towards the child.
"Tilia!" this time, even Yang Yi blurted out exclaimed. This woman is too bold, too reckless, and too brave! When everyone else is only concerned about her own life, she resolutely gives up the torch that can bring life and rushes to the other person!
The child fell to the ground, unable to get up for a while, blood flowed from his knees, and he looked helplessly at the approaching fog, and his little face turned white with shock, and he couldn't even cry.
Tilia ran over and tried to pull him up. But it didn't work, not only did the child lose her strength, but she also had no strength herself. After only one attempt, the brave woman immediately gave up pulling him up, grabbed him by the collar with her hand, and dragged the child away.
The woman dragged an injured child at a speed comparable to that of a snail. The fog slowed down as we got closer to the church, but it was faster than a woman and a wounded child. In a moment, the dense fog was less than three meters away from the two of them.
"Tilia!" Nod shouted, snatching a torch from the bystander's hand, and the wind rushed by.
Alda was shocked, "Nord, come back!"
Nord turned a deaf ear and rushed to Tilia's side, picked her up and put her on her shoulder like cargo, picked up the boy with the other hand, and ran back.
During the whole action, the three of them were only a beat slower, and they had already made contact with the dense fog.
At the moment of contact, the three of them were stunned, and Tilia's expression that had been calm suddenly disappeared, and after being stunned for a while, she screamed: "Nord, leave us alone, run away by yourself!"
Nord pursed his lips, his face showed resolute lines, and he didn't answer, desperately leading the two back. It's just that in the thick fog, I don't know what kind of strength the road has, and every step weighs more than a thousand catties!
Yang Yi watched in a daze, until the three of Nord looked up when they were about to be submerged in the thick fog, and their strong bodies were mixed with the brave farmer who pounced on him at the beginning. Yang Yi screamed, the blood all over his body was ignited, and a hot current rushed up his brain, and he suddenly forgot everything, and rushed out of the body like lightning!
