Chapter 40: Vampires?

Roth is in a very conflicted state.

He couldn't feel his body's presence, but he could feel a very intense headache at the same time.

I don't even know if I have a head, and in such an out-of-body state, I know very clearly that I am having a headache, and the contradiction in it is in a sense helping Roth confirm his own existence.

Unable to breathe or make a sound, unable to move, there was a plausible feeling from the hallucinations he had before entering the village, but at that time he was in the body of the man in gray, this time it was literally nothing.

Then, in the midst of nothingness, a picture suddenly flashed.

In a blink of an eye, Roth mastered all the details of the picture, because he no longer had any other sensory abilities other than the headache and the momentary vision.

Just as a person who loses his sight hears strongly, Roth, who temporarily lost everything, briefly gained an incredible ability to capture vision.

In the next moment, Roth returned to his body.

He reflexively gasped violently, hugging his body to confirm its existence.

It's too suspicious, it's too deliberate, it doesn't seem to be an accident, but someone deliberately made him go through everything in order to keep that moment in his mind.

What did Roth see?

In short, it's a man lying on the bed, and that's it, but there are many details that Roth can't fully understand.

The bed and the room in which the bed was located were white, and the man's mouth and nose were covered by a transparent hood to which was connected to a gray, section-by-section tube, all the way to a strange instrument.

The instrument emits a rhythmic "drip" sound, and there is a green light on it, the material is like a square screen of glass, on the square screen is drawn a rugged green line, and the green line will change every time the instrument emits a "drip" sound.

There were also a number of thin transparent tubes of unknown material inserted into the man's right arm, and at the other end of those tubes were hanging bottles, as if the liquid from the bottles was being injected into the man's body.

In fact, there are many other details, but there are many more parts that Roth remembers, but it is difficult to understand.

Who was that man, what was he doing, and it seemed to be some kind of treatment......

And who wants to let himself see this for what?

Thinking back to that scene reminded Lot of the feeling of nothingness at the same time, and the nausea caused him to reach out and hold on to the wall, feeling the touch of the rock.

When I looked up, I saw a dew-stained, stone-made wall, which should have been part of a house, with a hint of coolness accompanied by the fragrance of herbs, and the faint but not dim morning light peeked out carefully from the right side of the wall.

Is it early in the morning?

There wasn't such a humane building in the spell-pulled town, and Castle Black was even more impossible, it should be full of filth and stench.

"Hoo ......"

Roth took a deep breath and confirmed one thing.

Sure enough, he entered a fantasy again, and the reason why those adventurers who entered the black castle for the first time disappeared was the same as he imagined, and there must have been arrangements from pastorals here.

But is it really correct to say that this is a fantasy?

It's the same when I'm in the fantasy of that village, if I can say that I and Dwarf Bin can still say that although I feel like I've been in the village for a few days, less than half an hour has passed in reality, and Thrando's clone has been lurking there for half a year in reality!

Not to mention any advanced stand-in techniques, even if Serandor himself lived in the polluted area for half a year, he would have become a companion to those shadows a long time ago - he was not a legend, not even a Adamantite level.

But the truth is that both Roth and Bing the Shorty are fine, and Thrando's clone has managed to hold out until the day the mess is completed, and the only hapless warrior who died in the illusion was transformed by the priest of the past.

At this moment, the birdsong in my ears, the fragrance in the air, the touch of the weeds and soil under my feet is so clear even through the boots, and the dew-stained stone wall has a relaxing moist feeling.

...... No wonder pastors make such a choice.

But understanding is understood, Roth still won't approve of their approach, he doesn't want to repeat the same day like the people in that village, building new carts that will never be built, waiting for the harvest day that will never come, and telling the same joke over and over again.

In those love stories, it is often said that the protagonist hopes that "this moment can become forever", and if it really happens, I am afraid that if it is not a love story, it will become a horror story.

...... By the way, where did Lista go?

Just when Roth finally remembered his companion who should have entered the Black Castle with him, he saw a transparent Lista standing almost overlapping with himself, silently calling out something, and the mouth shape should be "Roth".

This is...... Did two people run into two separate illusions or the past?

He can see him, but can he see himself?

Roth tried to wave his hand in front of Lista's eyes, but Lista didn't react.

Suddenly, Lista's apparition jerked to his left, then drew his sword and rushed over, and his phantasm vanished.

Before Lot could catch up, a female scream came from the left side of the stone house!

Roth drew his long knife and rushed over...... Wait a minute, isn't that what Lista just did!?

Without having time to think about it, Roth walked to the left side of the stone house in a few steps, and a Western-style cemetery appeared in front of him, without a crucifixion of the true God, and sure enough, it was the cemetery before the establishment of the United Kingdom.

A young girl dressed in a nun's garment that Roth had only seen in a portrait in a book, with a knife in her hand, trembled and confronted three men with evil smiles on their faces.

"Don't come near me, you damned bandits!"

The nun's dress had been torn a few times, revealing not only bare skin, but also eye-catching wounds, and it was obvious that the three thieves had no means to hurt their clothes without hurting people.

"Hahaha, little girl, we are not to blame, who told you to run to the mountains alone at such a time!" the leading bandit whispered obscenely.

She has no way to retreat at this time, and behind her is the largest tombstone in this cemetery, even if she bypasses it, there is still a cemetery fence behind her, she must have run here in a panic.

Roth did not immediately come to the rescue, because although the apparition of Lista's first step had become very faint, it could still vaguely see some clues.

The blood left behind by the nuns was absorbed by the soil of the cemetery, and the soil under each tombstone had begun to loosen, but neither the nuns nor the bandits noticed it.

Lista didn't notice either, which was why his phantom, who was one step ahead of Roth, was now being held by two zombies.

It seems that everyone is going through the same past...... It's a pity that Lista's phantom is getting fading and fading, and it may not last long.

Although I don't know why I can see it, if I can always see Lista who is one step ahead of me, then Roth feels that his advantage is too great, and maybe he can really solve the mystery of this black castle directly.

Because of Roth's immobility, the situation here developed without interference.

The bandits approached the panicked nun step by step, and just as she made up her mind to aim the knife in her hand at herself, a large number of zombies stretched out their palms from the ground, and the two bandits who originally planned to block the nun's retreat and move to both sides were instantly grabbed by three or four half-rotten hands on the calf.

One of them fell to the ground in panic, and was grabbed by the zombie that broke out of the ground and gnawed on his head, thinking that he was dead.

The other cut off two arms that grabbed him, but by this time there were already zombies poking their entire upper body out of the ground and hugging his thighs, and he had no choice but to shout to the leading bandits: "Big brother, help!"

The leading bandit standing directly opposite the nun had not yet been attacked by zombies, because he was standing on the path of the cemetery without tombstones, and he turned around and wanted to escape, but he hesitated because of the shouts of his companions, and when he tried to leave again, the retreat was blocked by zombies.

For some reason, only the nun was under the big tombstone where no zombies came out, and she covered her mouth to prevent herself from making a sound, watching the tragedy of the living being eaten by the dead in front of her.

By the time the bandits are all dead, the nun will definitely become a target for zombies, and the phantom of Lista can no longer be seen clearly, so it is better to say that the phantom has no reference after choosing to wait.

There must have been some kind of meaning in having everyone who entered Castle Black start in the same place, at least the nun should be saved......

Will there be adventurers who will do the opposite and mingle with the bandits?

It should also be a choice to be a bystander all the time, and now there are many adventurers who have broken through this black castle, and some of them are assassins, shadow thieves and other extraordinary professions, and there are people who are really chosen in this way, but I have never heard of any adventurers who were driven out after a while after entering.

No one can remember what happened here after they get out, and everyone has one chance, and the guild can only get a meager bit of information from the few open-minded adventurers who are willing to be hypnotized.

There is no right answer.

That's good, you can choose whatever you want.

Roth jumped in from the right side of the cemetery, cut off two zombies in one piece, and said to the nun, "Girl, run to me!"

It wouldn't be difficult to cut down all these zombies, but before Lista's phantom completely dissipated, he looked as if he was fighting against some being, and there would definitely be a really powerful threat behind him, and Roth felt that it would be better to make a wave of that thing if possible.

The nun didn't react for a moment, but the thief's dying screams pulled her back, and she ran in the direction of Rot.

"Noisy~dead~people~!

Before the nun could take a few steps, the huge tombstone suddenly exploded, and dozens of black ribbons stretched out from the ground beneath the tombstone, stabbing at everything that was still making a sound.

Roth became alert when he heard the voice, and did not make any unnecessary noise, and the nun's hand covering her mouth never let go, but her face was already a little blue, as if she had not dared to breathe.

With a swallowing sound of "grunt", everything that was pierced by the ribbon, whether it was a zombie or a bandit who was not yet dead, instantly dried up, the zombie turned to ashes after shriveling, and the bandit turned into a dried corpse.

"Whoa! Whoa! Disgusting! What a zombie, no, there are three fresh ones, but they are mixed together, vomit!"

It seems that this guy who keeps retching is the guy who got into a fight with Lista, but it doesn't look like the other party will attack him immediately.

A female figure slowly crawled out of the smoke and dust caused by the explosion of the tombstone.

She was dressed in a very classic black gorgeous lady's dress, but there were no matching ornaments on her body except for the clothes themselves, and the ribbons that had been pierced out before seemed to be part of this dress, and the dozens of belts were now slowly crawling towards her master in a very weak manner.

She had gorgeous blonde hair and was retching with her head down, unable to see her face clearly.

"Woo, boom, hmm, why did you eat this kind of thing when you got in bed, woo woo woo woo ......"

She actually fell on the ground and cried!

I was reluctant to think so, but Lista probably just got into a fight with her......

After all, if Roth hadn't just been silent, he would have been attacked by a ribbon.

But in this way, if no one interferes, it should be this woman in black who is lying on the ground crying that saves this nun, right?

The ability to suck a living person into a dried corpse, is it a vampire?

It is said that this evil creature has disappeared since the appearance of the true god.

In the history of the United Kingdom's battle with filth, the shadow of vampires has also appeared many times, but as the fallen shadow of filth, their blood-sucking ability has not been shown much, but the ability to transform into bats, wolves and smoke is still recorded, especially smoke, which was originally just an escape ability when it was a vampire, and after becoming a shadow of filth, it has become an extremely troublesome means of eroding people.

Fortunately, the shadows, who can only use their past experience to fight, do not have the ability to learn and use them actively, and will not actively turn into smoke to hit people, as long as they do not blindly pursue adventurers when they escape, there is no danger.

Sun, Light, and Fire magic all work very well on them...... Sunlight?

Roth looked back at the rising sun and frowned.

The nun who was half-sitting on the ground didn't know what to think at this time, but she went to comfort the crying woman in black!

"Well, don't cry Miss, yes, it's you, did you save me?"

Roth was puzzled: "Huh?"

The nun hurriedly turned around and bowed to Roth, "And you, sir, uh, I'm sorry......! Thank you sir for saving my life!"

"Ah, it's okay, I haven't saved you yet, it's true that this young lady saved you. Roth just thought that he had spoken out because he had been ignored by the past because he had interfered too little, not that the nun had to be so quiet.

The woman in black turned over at this time, wiped her tears and said, "I was just woken up and angry, if you hadn't just made a sound, I might have killed you." As a result, cough, I may have killed your enemy, but it was the man who really [wanted] to save you, right?"

That's when Roth had a chance to see what she looked like.

How to say it, this is a very mellow beauty, almost a peerless beauty, and there are two more taels of meat from the country and the city.

It's not that she's really fat, even if she lies like this, she doesn't have a double chin, and she can't see obvious fat on her body, forcing her to be fat must make many women who are really a little fat feel uncomfortable.

But it gives people a feeling of roundness, and the eyebrows and eyes that should have been extremely bewitching are inexplicably a little more cute, saying that they are baby fat, but looking at the eyebrows and eyes more, I feel that both sides are almost meaningful, even if I can't lose a little weight, it's good to be a little fatter, it's just going to give people such a feeling, a woman who is still beautiful no matter what.

Of course, the breasts are also very plump, and they are still wearing open corsets, and Roth didn't dare to look at them after a few glances.

The nun glanced at Roth, and soon realized what his reaction was, and her face turned red.

Although it would be disgusting to stare at it all the time, it didn't seem right to open her eyes like this, and the nun found that she didn't know how to deal with the situation where she wanted a man, and the nature of the clergy made her can't help but reflect on herself.

"Huh, why is no one talking all of a sudden?" the woman in black noticed that the atmosphere suddenly became very strange.

Roth felt that according to the original past, it should be this nun and the woman in black who communicated with each other, so he wanted to try what would happen if he pretended not to talk.

Sure enough, the nun said, "Anyway, you two are my saviors, can I know your names?"

"My name is Lijlit, and if you think I've saved you, it's your freedom. Man, what about you?"

"Rot, my name is Rot. ”

"Wow, I can't say more by the way. Lijliet was dissatisfied, her face bulging and she really looked like a little girl.

"I, my name is Jieli, I am a nun in the town, I originally wanted to come to the small church on the mountain in the morning to pray, but I didn't expect that there would be bandits here......"

"Little church, why am I here in a small church, why did your village build a church on a hill?" said Lijliet.

"You, uh, you were in ...... before Miss Lijielet, who are you?"

Jieli still didn't dare to say that Lijielit had been buried in the cemetery before, and how could the corpses near the church be turned into zombies?

"Me?" said Lijietlet as she stood up, her chest puffed out (Roth opened her eyes again), "I don't seem to remember a lot of things, but I know who I am!

Roth looked at the rising sun again, and couldn't help but say loudly: "How can there be a vampire who is not afraid of the sun......"
