The two continued to advance in the passage.
There were many guards along the way, and they also encountered other "people" on the way.
These people also looked the same as the past priests, with more or less alienation in their bodies.
But without exception, they don't seem to have the ability to think.
It seems that everyone has become a tireless patrol machine, wandering in this gloomy underground day after day.
They drove out the intruders and defended the altar that belonged to Sarah.
Xiao Lan felt that it was difficult to say whether these "people" could be regarded as living people.
Along the way, from the outside, there are several people without mouths and noses. If normal people have died long ago, they can still act, which is very unscientific.
After a long period of training and fighting, Xiao Lan's movements have become extremely swift. He quietly avoided these not very alert guards, and before they could react, he went away like a breeze.
Luo was like his shadow, following Xiao Lan quietly and silently.
They just walked quietly in this underground passage full of strange guards.
The two have been walking in the passage for a while.
The inside of the passage is twisted and twisted, and it seems that there is a sense of randomness in thinking about where to dig where, and people almost lose their way.
Fortunately, the tunnel was dug very hastily, there was no fork in it, and the progress was fairly smooth.
Soon, they came to an open area.
Xiao Lan found a lot of white fragments under his feet, and he was about to bend over to pick it up and take a look.
Luo but reached out his hand to stop him, and the shadow wrote in the void: [These are human bones]
Xiao Lan looked at the fragments of bone spreading in this place.
This... How many people died? What happened to make these bones so broken
Before they could study it carefully, there was a rustle of procrastination not far away.
This sound is like the footsteps of the guards I've heard before, but the difference is that there are many sounds this time, densely overlapping, mixed with the echo in the channel, and people's scalp is numb.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the two hurriedly found a sunken stone wall and hid in.
There happened to be a big rock nearby that could block the line of sight coming from the front.
To avoid being discovered, Xiao Lan also turned off the [Nuclear Flashlight] by the way.
Without the flashlight, only the sporadic light emitted by certain plants in the tunnel can illuminate, making everything in the line of sight blurred and even more strange.
The space behind the stone wall was limited, Xiao Lan could only squat down and pressed her back against Luo's body.
He can clearly perceive the breath and heartbeat of the other party's imitation of human beings, and he can also feel the heat and muscle lines from Luo's body.
Suddenly, Xiao Lan felt her shoulders sink.
He turned his head slightly, and he could see Luo's face very close.
Although the light is extremely weak, with the excellent eyesight of advanced players, this face is as handsome as ever in Xiao Lan's eyes, and even because the light is different, it still reveals a strange feeling, like a ghost in the night.
Luo felt Xiao Lan's gaze, turned his head and smiled at him slightly, and said with his lips: What's the matter? gentlemen.
Xiao Lan, who was bent at a right angle, suddenly felt that her heartbeat suddenly accelerated a little.
He looked away a little uncomfortably, shit, this guy cheated.
The non-human who had learned a lot of abilities in the human world did not stop there. He chased after Xiao Lan while turning his head, and a kiss fell on Xiao Lan's cheek.
Faced with Xiao Lan's eyes, "Fuck you in this environment."
Luo curled up the corners of his mouth, stretched out his hand in front of his lips to make a shush gesture, his face was graceful and reserved, as if the person who had just made trouble was not him.
Sure enough, thick-skinned is the only truth in the world.
A certain non-human complimented human wisdom in his heart, and felt that he had to learn more from humans.
It is a pity that the sound of horrible footsteps is getting closer, interrupting the somewhat charming atmosphere between the two.
Gradually, the source of the sound appeared in their vision.
Both of them diverted their attention.
It was a densely packed group of figures, perhaps hundreds of people, including men and women, and of different ages.
It can be roughly distinguished that the clothes on their bodies are some styles of priests and nuns, and some are ordinary styles.
The styles of clothes on these people seem to be quite old.
However, these people are not much different from the guards in other passages.
They still look numb, their movements are stiff and weird, and their limbs have various disabilities and alienation.
So many people came, but there was no sound at all.
The most special thing is the person taking the lead. He looks the least like a person, and the clothes left on his body also look the most gorgeous, like the uniform of the bishop.
He seems to still have a little consciousness left, and he can even direct the rest of the people.
Xiao Lan guessed that perhaps these were the people who participated in the sacrifice in the small town of Mona.
Something happened after they entered the underground to hold sacrifices, which turned them into this weird state, wandering here forever, and refused other people's entry.
The crowd gathered in this empty area. There was a clearing in front of them, with no traces of idols or altars.
Everyone stiffly raised their hands and began to bow down mechanically.
Their actions are almost the same, it looks like they have been programmed uniformly.
Xiao Lan watched their movements.
Suddenly, he discovered that these people's positions were a little weird.
They seem to be standing according to a certain pattern, but there are some strange vacancies in them, as if there should be someone there, but those people are absent.
He has observed several places within his sight, and it is true.
There are many vacancies in the neat queue.
Where did all these people go
Xiao Lan's gaze couldn't help falling onto the broken bones on the ground.
He thought that one of the information he had obtained stated that two private investigators hired by Mr. B died of cannibalism.
Could it be that the bones on the ground were caused by these kneeling people
If this is the case, it can also explain why these bones are so broken.
After killing some of their compatriots, these people probably often come here to bow down. Naturally, their bones can no longer remain intact under their many years of trampling.
How cruel and numb is this
What kind of existence did these people affected by Sarah’s song become
Are they... really still human
The crowd's bows continued.
Suddenly, the leading bishop stood up.
He left the crowd alone and walked in the other direction.
There was still a monotonous kneeling and clothes rubbing around. Others seemed to have been accustomed to his actions and didn't respond to this.
Xiao Lan and Luo were preparing to get up and chase them.
Suddenly, Xiao Lan heard an uncheckable subtle voice coming from behind.
His movements stopped and he turned his head to look at Luo's side. Luo also nodded at him, apparently both of them heard the sound.
Xiao Lan stared into the darkness behind her intently.
A face hung upside down and slowly fell from above.
The face was withered and wrinkled, and the eye sockets were deeply sunken, like a black hole.
His mouth opened, and a long, root-like tongue protruded from it. This tongue was dancing like a snake, looking very strange.
On the other side, his body seemed to grow in the wall, and his lower body almost blended into the stone wall.
I don't know when he appeared here, but he didn't make the two sensitive people in front notice the slightest abnormality.
Seeing that the two found themselves, the hanging man grew his mouth, and seemed to scream to warn his companions outside.
Seeing this, Xiao Lan flew forward instantly, and at the same time the [Bone of Rebellion] in her hand appeared instantly and waved towards the opponent.
Before the sound of the hanged man came out, a stick suddenly fell on his head.
This sap is extremely skilled and decisive, full of professionalism and craftsmanship, and can be called a model of behavior in the sap world.
The hanged man's body slid off the wall and was caught with one hand by Luo who was already prepared before landing.
Luo moved his tongue like a beard familiarly, and trapped his body firmly, like a pharaoh, even if he was awake, he couldn't move at all.
After the binding, Luo controlled the black shadow to dig a hole silently beside him, put the tied person in, and filled it with soil, allowing him to experience the one-step high standard of a professional funeral team. Serve.
After doing all this, a thin black shadow appeared on Luo's hand, wiping away the dirt on it.
The whole process only took a moment, and with the cooperation of Xiao Lan and Luo, the volume was controlled to a minimum.
The long-term cooperation has made the two people full of tacit understanding, and they can complete the right cooperation without communicating in advance.
After cleaning up this sudden episode, the two sneaked out from behind the stone wall.
The kneeling crowd was still repeating their stiff movements, unaware of what had just happened.
The two carefully circled around them and headed in the direction where the bishop disappeared.
The passage the bishop walked was narrower than before, and slabs were also laid on the ground, which looked a little more refined.
Explain that the place where this channel is connected should be quite important.
Soon after I left, another open space appeared.
This place is smaller than the area where everyone kneeled before, and a very simple altar was built with stones in the middle.
There seemed to be some indelible black marks on the stones that made up the altar, which flowed all the way to the surrounding ground.
Although she couldn't see clearly from a distance, Xiao Lan guessed that based on what she had seen before, it might be blood that had already dried up.
He quietly looked around, and there were also many traces of blood splashing on the ground and walls. It is not difficult to imagine how bloody and crazy the scenes back then were.
This is probably the altar mentioned in the information.
The bishop was standing alone on the altar, performing a silent ceremony dancing and dancing.
His movements looked crazy, with his limbs like tree roots and a face like tree bark, making him look more like a monster than a human, but he was actually a human originally.
The bishop changed his actions and turned his back to the two of them.
Following his movements, the damaged clothes on his back floated up.
Only then did Xiao Lan realize that there was a huge cavity behind him.
This guy should be dead!
Maybe even the "people" outside are the same. Without food and water, people cannot survive.
They are basically a group of living dead.
Perhaps they had all died in the sacrifice thirty years ago, but some of the corpses were affected by Sarah and acted again. They were as crazy as before, and insisted on dealing with Sarah day after day. Faith.
Suddenly, Xiao Lan's sight was attracted by the stone under the bishop's feet.
In a room with only a little gleam of plants, some stones flashed red light from time to time like breathing. The light was very faint, but it became a bit more conspicuous against the background.
Xiao Lan was about to signal to Luo, but the bishop who was addicted to the ceremony suddenly turned her head.
It seemed that he had sensed something, his face like an old tree bark turned straight to the direction where Xiao Lan and the other two were, red light gushing out of his hollow eye sockets.
Was discovered.
For an instant, this thought flashed through Xiao Lan's mind.
As the bishop lifted his hand covered with roots, the [Bone of Rebellion] in his hand has instantly switched to a blade.
Xiao Lan rushed out without hesitation, and the blade pointed at the bishop.
"Luo, clear the field." Xiao Lan said softly.
"Okay, sir." Luo answered with a smile.
At the same moment, a black shadow spread out from under Luo's feet.
The space where the entire altar was located instantly filled, like a black cage, blocking everything in it.
This is Luo's new ability after absorbing more body fragments. It can temporarily block a space so that the prey inside cannot escape, and the movement caused by the battle will not be transmitted.
Xiao Lan's blade had already swung towards the bishop.
The bishop's attack was not weak at all, the roots that came over suddenly were as hard as steel, and the speed was so fast that it even made a sharp piercing sound.
While Xiao Lan dodged her body, she cut at the attacking roots without mercy.
"Ding-"
The roots collided with the blade, but there was a sound of metal clashing.
But even though the roots are hard, they still can't resist the edge of [Bone of Rebellion].
After a sound, the roots were severed with a knife, and the severed parts fell to the ground, and immediately began to corrode, and gave off an unpleasant smell.
The bishop opened his mouth and roared, his voice was hoarse and not human.
But the cut off part of him grew again.
Stimulated by the injury, he seemed to feel anger, and more roots came violently towards Xiao Lan.
The attack came more fiercely, but Xiao Lan dodged easily in it, like a phantom.
"It's a regenerative type again. I hate your unscientific existence." Xiao Lan said as the sharp blade in his hand moved faster.
He also activated the skills:
[Name: Poverty cannot limit my imagination]
【Ability: Flame Manipulation】
After upgrading to level 5, the flames Xiao Lan can control are also different.
Now it is a fire close to white but extremely hot, more powerful than the Dalit flame in the past.
A ray of light flashed across the blade, and a touch of flame also attached to it.
The fiery flames, accompanied by the extremely sharp blade light, once again fell on the bishop's body.
The plant-like tentacles suddenly burned when facing the flame, and the fire spread wildly along his withered body, extremely fast.
At the same time, Xiao Lan's slashing did not stop, and the jet-black blade light continued to fall along with the fiery flames.
With each cut, he cut off a lot of his roots, and added a hand to the already fast-developing fire.
Soon, the bishop almost became a fireball.
But he still tried to drag Xiao Lan to death.
A lot of burning roots suddenly emerged from each of his limbs, and these roots all rushed towards Xiao Lan, preparing to wrap him up.
Xiao Lan flexibly moved away from him trying to grab her roots, then adjusted her footsteps slightly, stood behind the bishop, and raised the knife again.
After the dark knife light passed.
The flaming head flew up and drew an arc in the air before crashing to the ground.
Immediately, the body engulfed by the flame also fell, raising a dust of dust.
Soon, both the head and the body were swallowed by the high-temperature flame and burned violently.
The system prompt appears:
"You killed Jack Manson"
This is probably the name of the bishop during his lifetime, but it is a pity that this name has no meaning to him.
Xiao Lan put away the knife and turned off the skill.
He pointed to the bishop who was burning and turned around and asked Luo: "Can you eat this? It tastes like barbecue."
Luo seemed to have gotten used to his boyfriend's unreasonable cards. He smiled and said, "I'm picky eaters, sir."
