Chapter 33: Darkness Comes
Such an exciting picture really brought a huge shock to Richard's heart.
It was the first time in his fifteen years of life that he had faced such a direct confrontation between enormous forces.
This is what he has never experienced in his ordinary life.
Compared to Richard, Elos is much calmer, but the shock of the soul is also inevitable, and the extremely impactful realistic picture will bring an explosive experience to the human brain.
Holding his gun tightly, Ayros looked down at the road where the wagon was going to pass, which happened to be blocked by the monster's corpse, and he didn't know if something would happen if the four trucks passed over the monster's corpse.
There are all kinds of possibilities, and Iros can't get out of the van and move the corpse away, the power of the spatial hole is always there, and he can't break free.
The wheel spun forward, running over the edge of the corpse, the corpse began to be pulled inch by inch, and the flesh began to collapse inward, drawing a circle that continued to spread in the form of a spiral, and in the center of the circle, it was dark that could not be seen clearly, and all the monster flesh and blood were like falling into a meat grinder, all of which were twisted into the darkness in the center of the circle.
As the wagon continued to move forward, the terrible force of the meat grinder began to evaporate more completely, and the flesh was pulled into the abyss little by little between the roads where the wheels passed, and it was washed away, and it could no longer hinder the truck's passage.
Aylos watched all this happen with cold eyes, he was still thinking about whether it was too much pity for this corpse to be disposed of like this, but he immediately adjusted this kind of gain and loss, and began to observe the process of this strange power unfolding.
When the first car completely ran over the corpse of the giant beast, Eros could clearly see that the corpse of the monster was completely divided into two sides, falling on both sides of the road, and the openings that were broken down were neat and neat, and both sides were the same, as if they had been cut by the most precise cutting knife.
The black water swallowed all the blood flowing from the corpse very tolerantly, but it didn't make the whole picture look good, and the amazing fishy smell filled the tip of Richard's nose, so he could only cover his mouth and nose and try not to move.
The road was facing the sky, and the convoy continued to pass, and the crowd behind the glass of the building looked at the four passing trucks with panicked faces, and they were afraid that this was a new anomaly that would cause them bad damage.
The statues of the gods lined up on both sides did not make any more movements, and the first truck slowly drove under the covered bridge connecting the two buildings, and Richard looked up to the sides and looked at the images of the gods between the two glasses.
These two portraits are still imposing even when they are still.
Coloche held the Blade of Theapoi to the earth with both hands, and looked far away, wearing a crimson cloak, silver chain armor, and hair scattered, as if watching the gods and stars fall on the horizon.
Odysseus was surrounded by seven stars, the golden ring shining brightly through the stars, he was dressed in a simple white robe, his eyes narrowed slightly, and one hand was outstretched, as if he was lifting up a devout believer.
Under the gaze of these two gods, four trucks drove by, this street is still very long, there is no end in sight for a while, the journey is still going on, this is just a journey point for the two.
Passing by the shiny building, the two entered a path of extreme darkness, with only some ordinary city buildings, and some trees and shrubs used for urban greening, only the red moon shone on them without shying away, and the scarlet moonlight sprinkled on the convoy, leaving a trace of extreme strangeness.
Eroth stood in front of the car for the first time, his sense of smell of danger reminded him that danger was approaching them, that darkness was more likely to breed weirdness, and that many monsters liked to live in the dark, they were naturally tired of light, and only liked dark and damp corners.
"Richard, you have to be focused. Eros was reminding Richard again.
"Okay. ”
In the face of the coming crisis, it is best to strengthen self-protection.
A bubble in the black water began to burst, one after another, the sound was very subtle, like a mosquito in the night, gently flapping its wings, three or five monsters shaped like fish jumped up from the black water, their sharp beaks like swords, aimed at the location of Eloth and Richard.
The force with which they leaped from the bottom of the water was enormous, which caused them to leap extremely fast after coming out of the water, quickly passing through the darkness and coming to the light of the red moon, but Elos reacted in time, raising the "Mosin Nagant" and it was a blast, the bullets splashed, and the red-hot metal bullets completely pierced the bodies of these monsters.
The swordfish-like monster had completely rotted abdominal muscles, and its internal organs were stinky with black blisters, and the bullets didn't seem to do much effective damage, but the sheer impact of the shotgun caused them to bounce off one by one, and they couldn't get close to the roof of the truck.
After blocking this wave of attacks, Aelos did not relax, he glanced back at Richard, and then focused more on the next attack.
In this large section of the street, lit only by the red moon, new monsters are constantly pouring out, all of them attracted by fresh human flesh.
For these monsters who live in a dark and mysterious world all year round, humans who are exposed to the sun and can eat healthy food are simply natural delicious, and this is a fatal attraction for these irrational monsters.
These monsters come in a variety of forms, from carrion corpses like humans, twisted giants piled up with corpse pieces, to long boneless snakes, and Iros, armed with a gun, fights these monsters between four wagons, sometimes lighting dark blue flames and burning spirits, sometimes he snaps his fingers and freezes the air.
Turning, running, jumping, and shooting, Eros was thinking quickly about his next step with every step, and he maintained a high level of combat focus in this battle against the dark things.
Richard could only watch Aelos perform in a daze, although his heart once again flooded with that sense of familiarity, he still suppressed the urge to do something, he knew that now, protecting himself is the greatest help to Aros.
Elos jumped high again, stepped on the air bubble created by two snaps of his fingers, fed the shotgun into the mouth of a strange bird flying this way, and then fired, blasting the strange bird's head completely, and after dealing with this side, he habitually turned back, only to see a dark figure rushing out of the dark package, heading towards Richard.
The red moon is shining, the top of the truck is covered with iron, and a pile of gray-brown rust is illuminated, this black shadow is stepping on the edge of the truck, moving flexibly, still holding a gun in his hand, looking at the posture of holding a gun, he should also be a professional.
Aware of this incident, Eros quickly turned around, starting from the roof of the second car and running back, making a high leap to the third car, and then using the third car as a pedal, jumping into the wind under the red moon, the red light reflected on his back, illuminating his blue-gray light winter coat, faintly revealing the outline of his powerful back.
Returning from the shadow, Eros pressed Mosin Nagant against his temple before the shadow lifted his legs up to the roof of the car.
"Tell me, why are you here? ”
As he got closer, Eros saw the man's face, a very thin man, wearing a wide coat that made his whole body look a little baggy.
"I .......," the man was pointed at gunpoint and his speech was stumbling, "he ran away." ”
"Climb up first and ask about the situation. ”
Eros put the man on the roof of the car, but didn't let him get close to Richard, and let the man sit on the edge, a position that could have caused the man to fall straight from the van into the black water with a slight push from Eros.
"Okay, you ask. ”
After climbing onto the roof of the truck, the man was finally able to breathe and speak a little quieter.
"What's it called. ”
"Paul. ”
"What do you do, or what is your extraordinary profession?"
This man was able to escape all the way from such a dangerous environment, and if he had said that he did not have extraordinary abilities, Ayros would have shot him immediately.
"Painter, a profession that uses painting to show extraordinary abilities, the scope of ability use is relatively limited, the profession has a ceremony that can promote transcendental, but there is no record in the inheritance of higher promotion paths, the painter's ......."
The man didn't know if the nervousness had not passed, but he memorized the information about the painter in one fell swoop, and these things were written in a book, and it was not difficult for Paul to memorize this kind of mechanical recitation.
"Very well, you're detailed, so what are you going to do here?"
The man's attitude was more sincere, which deepened Eros's trust in him and patiently asked him the next question.
"I'm here to gather information on the fall of the N98 Empty Zone, and my direct agency is the Old Lanka City Inspectorate. ”
"Explain the empty space. ”
"To put it simply, it's an area that doesn't have a city painting. ”
"Okay, you can stand up first, and then you can tell me what you've been through. ”
Elos' gun was still aimed at Paul.
Paul hurriedly adjusted his body and stood up, his bony body dragging a wide robe-like uniform, looking a little overwhelmed.
His lips were a little chapped, and he was a little embarrassed and asked, "Is there any water?"
"Yes. It wasn't Elos who responded to him, it was Richard.
Because of the perennial life of walking and leaving, both Ellos and Richard have a good habit of tying important items to their motorcycles, and water, a strategic resource, is naturally the top priority.
A kettle was brought to Paul, and Richard was about to hand it to him, but was cut off by Elos halfway, but the water still reached Paul safely.
He lifted the jug halfway, and the water flowed into his mouth in a line, and when he had finished drinking, he began to speak.
