Night of the Apocalypse

Chapter 59: Fog City

Views:

When Shen Qiu shook his head, the overlapping blurry world became clear.

I saw him standing on the rooftop, looking over there.

In the mist, there are looming tall towers, magnificent glazed churches, and Gothic buildings carved with various reliefs.

A cool breeze blew past.

Shen Qiu suddenly felt a chill in his body, and the cool breeze penetrated directly into the bottom of his slit bathrobe and pajamas.

He looked down at the pajamas he was wearing and the slippers on his feet, and was completely speechless.

"Oh, I'm really going crazy. I can be overlapped at home. It seems that I will really have to reverse my work and rest schedule. Even if I really want to rest at night, I have to wear clothes and shoes and hold equipment!"

Of course, despite complaining, Shen Qiu quickly adjusted his attitude.

The most urgent task now is to understand the current situation and ensure safety. Who knows where it will overlap this time.

Apart from anything else, just from the buildings that were vaguely visible in the fog, it was obvious that the world he was overlapping with last time was not the same one.

Shen Qiu first took a deep breath, then burst into a violent cough.

The air was very pungent, just like old industrial waste gas. This feeling reminded Shen Qiu of a famous city in the Blue Alliance, Fog City, the air in the two cities was very similar.

Shen Qiu turned his head and looked at the rooftop, and soon saw a tightly closed iron sliding door.

If nothing unexpected happens, this door should be able to lead downstairs and into the house under his feet.

Shen Qiu put on his backpack, pulled out the mechanical blade, tied the scabbard to his left waist with the bathrobe rope, then walked to the edge of the roof and looked down.

He found that the house under his feet was three stories high and located on the edge of the main street. On both sides and opposite were buildings of different styles.

There are kerosene street lamps standing on both sides of the street. The most creepy thing is that the street lamps are still on, emitting a yellowish light, illuminating the dark ground.

If you look closely at the street ground, you can see some torn clothes and body parts.

All signs indicate that Shen Qiu is not the first person to visit here. It is estimated that there have been unlucky people who have been here before, and this place is not as quiet and safe as it looks on the surface.

“Huh~”

Shen Qiu let out a long breath, then turned and walked to the iron sliding door. He tried to pull it.

With a harsh friction sound, the iron sliding door was opened.

Looking inside, the internal staircase was pitch black. Shen Qiu walked in carefully, then stood quietly on the dark staircase, letting his eyes gradually adapt to the darkness. After he could see the staircase a little bit, he walked down carefully.

The stairs were narrower than expected, and were made of wood. Due to age, they made a constant creaking sound as one went down the stairs.

If there are enemies in the house, there will most likely be unusual noises.

Therefore, Shen Qiu was nervous and held the mechanical blade tightly in his hand, ready to fight at any time.

However, when Shen Qiu walked to the third floor, he did not see any enemy and it was quiet all around.

Upon closer inspection, I saw two rooms on the third floor and a large living room with oil paintings covered in mildew on the walls.

The oil painting depicts some landscapes and exquisite utensils.

Shen Qiu walked to the nearest room holding his breath and gently pushed open the half-open door.

What came into view was a dim study.

Shen Qiu took an all-round look and confirmed that there were no hidden enemies, then he ignored this room and walked towards another one.

He wanted to make sure the house was safe before conducting a detailed search.

Soon Shen Qiu walked to the door of the second room, which was also ajar.

He pushed it open gently, and found it was empty with only some piled up debris.

Shen Qiu then moved towards the second floor, and soon he arrived there, where there were also two rooms and a living room.

However, compared to the third floor, the decoration here is much better, with tables and chairs in the living room.

Shen Qiu walked straight to the first room. He gently pushed the door open and through the gap, a mahogany coffin came into view.

Shen Qiuxin's heart suddenly rose to his throat. He looked at the room carefully. It was a spacious female master bedroom. Apart from the coffin placed in the middle, there was a wardrobe next to it and a dusty dressing table next to the window.

There were some exquisite jewelry boxes and some strange cosmetics on the dressing table.

What horrified Shen Qiu the most was that there was a black kerosene lamp lit in the middle of the dressing table.

The whole room was lit by kerosene lamps.

Shen Qiu moved towards the coffin little by little. The coffin looked quite delicate, with complex patterns engraved on the surface.

Looking at the coffin, Shen Qiu couldn't help but think of the vampires in movies and TV dramas.

He was also a little curious. Could there really be a vampire lying in here? Could such a creature really exist in the world

With this doubt in mind, Shen Qiu took a deep breath, stretched out his left hand, pressed on the coffin lid, and pushed it open little by little.

Then, a noble lady with her hair tied up, a red gem necklace around her neck, and wearing a retro long dress came into Shen Qiu's sight.

The face of this noble lady looked like a mummy, with sunken features and her eyes tightly closed.

With her hands crossed on her chest, at first glance she looks like Sleeping Beauty.

Shen Qiu's eyelids kept twitching, but he was not stupid enough to think that this was just a simple corpse.

Without hesitation, he raised the mechanical blade in his hand and pointed it at the sleeping lady's heart.

Click!

The entire mechanical blade penetrated with a sound!

Black blood immediately seeped out, and the noble lady, who had her eyes closed, suddenly opened her creepy eyes and struggled to raise her dry right hand.

Shen Qiu suddenly turned the mechanical blade, completely crushing its heart.

The noble lady's body twitched, her raised hand fell, and she instantly lost her life.

Shen Qiu immediately pulled out the mechanical blade, then left the room and walked towards the second room. Although he didn't know why these monsters were hiding in the coffins and sleeping, this was a good opportunity to wipe them out, so he cleaned them up first.

Soon Shen Qiu pushed open the door of the second room and saw a smaller coffin.

He walked forward and pushed open the coffin lid. Lying inside was a girl holding a moldy doll.

Without any hesitation, Shen Qiu stabbed him in the heart and killed him.

After finishing, Shen Qiu went down to the first floor and searched roughly. After confirming that there were no other coffins, he returned to the second floor.

He first went back to the body of the noble lady, reached out his hand to search, but only found some jewelry.

Shen Qiu just took a look at it and threw it away.

Then he opened the closet, which was filled with moldy and old women's clothing.

Shen Qiu frowned as he watched. He had originally been thinking about whether he could find some better clothes to change out of his pajamas so that he could move more conveniently, but it seemed like he had no chance of thinking about it.

Now I can only look for something else to see if there is anything I can use.
