The magician in the city

Chapter 470 Ruins 15

第460八章废墟15

The flames rushed into the abandoned underground building of the bank before they did. Luo Qi pushed Liu Ziyu into the basement, grabbed the heavy explosion-proof door and pulled it desperately.The thick iron door that hadn't been used for many years finally started to move under his strength, but the speed was too slow. Through the huge gap in the door, Roach saw countless ghostly figures.

"Luo Qi!" Liu Ziyu screamed, "Quick!"

"I did my best," Roach exclaimed angrily, closing the door too slowly.

Liu Ziyu looked around nervously, looking for it was like her second instinct. "That's wrong. Humans don't have as much strength as you. The door shouldn't be so heavy."

"It's all old things for many years, and it's rusted a long time ago."

"Then I will be killed by you." Liu Ziyu said, suddenly, she noticed a vertical handle on the door. "what is this?"

"Cult of reproduction?" Roach said anxiously.

"Shut up, you're annoying." Liu Ziyu grabbed the handle, "You know humans never use force, this must be the handle of the hinge, they must use a winch to open and close the door, I've seen something similar. "

Luo Qi didn't know what Liu Ziyu was talking about in his anxiety, but since Liu Ziyu started to turn the handle, the speed of closing the door was accelerating, Luo Qi looked at Liu Ziyu in surprise. "Quickly pull the mill!"

Liu Ziyu scolded Luo Qi clearly and unmistakably, "It's you instead."

"Continue." Roach said, he completely let go of the iron door, moved a step away, and stared closely at the puppet that was only a few steps away from the door.

"God, don't hurry up and control them." Liu Ziyu yelled, turning the winch desperately, and the iron gate was retracted little by little.

Roach didn't speak. Everything has a price. His loss of control just now made it difficult for him to concentrate, but his concentration began to drag him into a trance state.He had to maintain absolute sanity, otherwise the first person he would attack would be Liu Ziyu.

"Roach!"

"It's almost there, and the door can be closed." Roach said, sweat dripping from his head.The door was barely there, and so was the puppet closest to him, and the puppet had stretched its arms as far as it could go.As long as the door can be closed and only one puppet comes in, it is not difficult to dismiss, then it can save energy and give him time to recover.

"Luo Qi!" Liu Ziyu called out, the explosion-proof door was about to close, a puppet's arm stuck in at this moment, and stuck on the door with a horrible blunt sound, Liu Ziyu let out a nauseous scream .At the same time, the zombie began to push its shoulders into the crack of the door with strength that neither humans nor mages possessed, and squeezed the door open with its shoulders.More of his companions would be coming soon, and they would push the door open again.

"Get out of the way." Luo Qi shouted, knocked Liu Ziyu away with his shoulder, gave a strong force on the winch handle, and then suddenly cast a icy spell on the door.

The puppet froze, and the arm stretched through the door froze instantly, turning out a disgusting blue-purple color.Roach did something he never thought he could do, jumped up and kicked hard on the frozen tissue.The puppet's arm broke in the room along the crack of the door, and the door closed heavily with the last bit of inertia, and he immediately locked the door. "Liu Ziyu, you have a way for a mage to lock the door, don't you?"

Liu Ziyu nodded stiffly, bypassing the severed limb, she began to recite the growth magic, the elements consistent with the composition of the iron door began to overflow, the explosion-proof door and the door frame became one, and they were continuously reinforced and superimposed into the wall.After finishing all this, sweat dripped from her head.The puppet outside the door kept hitting the door, they waited for a while, the door was thicker and safer than they thought.

After a while, she came back to her senses and stared blankly at the arm on the ground. Roach suddenly kicked that arm to the corner of the wall.

Liu Ziyu hugged his arms tightly, took a few deep breaths, and forced a smile. "Really impressive solution. Battle mages usually condense a weapon for themselves, then chop off the arm."

"I don't know that kind of magic." Roach said, "I only know basic magic, and I can't even control the temperature accurately."

"Looks like the temperature is low enough." Liu Ziyu said dryly. She endured it for a while, but couldn't help being curious, "But I never knew that the human body would be so brittle when the temperature was low enough. How could you be so clear?" ?”

"Do you think I often secretly freeze and shatter people?" Roach asked.

"You know I don't mean that!"

Roach looked at her for a while before saying, "I read in the library that in the past, some tribes in Mongolia used to cut off their legs. They would tie up criminals and put them in a warm tent with only one leg cut off. Stretch out into the ice and snow outside the tent. After a few hours, the leg outside the tent will freeze, and at this time, it only needs to be knocked hard, and it will break."

Liu Ziyu opened his mouth in astonishment, and said for a while, "It's really... impressively barbaric."

"Yeah, that's why I remembered," Roach whispered, "but that was done many years ago when humans were savage, and if you look on the side of kindness, frostbitten stubble is not easy to infect. Likewise It's limbs, and offenders have a better chance of surviving that way than cutting them off with a knife."

"Okay." Liu Ziyu said uncomfortably, after thinking for a while, he said, "Library?"

"The city library can be reached directly by subway." Roach said.

"You're really ready to live in human society, aren't you?" Liu Ziyu said casually, wanting to say something else to distract her and ease the tension caused by the zombies' constant pounce on the door.

"Yes, I can live well." Roach whispered, he turned and walked inside, "Let's see what's inside, shall we?"

Liu Ziyu followed his footsteps, and they walked to the depths of the basement together.This place is much bigger than they imagined. It is more like a huge factory than a place to store banknotes.

It was very cold underground, and their clothes had been soaked by the rain outside, and now they were icy cold against their bodies, and both of them were shivering a little.Liu Ziyu made a handful of energy beans while walking, and gave half of them to Luo Qi.

"I want to go home. Have some food, real, hot food," she said, trembling.

"We all have to wait," Roach said in a low voice.

Liu Ziyu smiled and said jokingly, "What are you waiting for? Food?"

Roach shook his head.

"Game console?"

Roach shook his head again.

"You seem to be very patient." Liu Ziyu paused, put a bean in his mouth, and fired a strong wind at a target on the roof, clearing out a structure like a vent. "You seem to have been waiting for a long time, longer than the time here, you have a habit of waiting."

"Yeah, I've been waiting for a long time." Roach reached into his pocket again, fiddled with pine needles, and poked shallow holes in his fingers. "I want to go home too."

She thought for a while, compared to her agility, she thought for a long time before asking, "Your parents' home?"

For a while Roach looked like he didn't want to answer her, and his lips parted a few times.There was silence all around, only the whine of the wind blowing in from the ventilation duct. Their breathing sounded very loud, but his voice was almost weaker than his breathing. "A place that tolerates me more and respects me."

"You must have found the place, haven't you?"

"Yes." Roach glanced at her.

Liu Ziyu looked at him thoughtfully.

"I will serve Qionglin wholeheartedly, I think." Roach said, raising his voice.

She blinked, "So you mean that Qionglin is a place that tolerates and respects you more than your native family?"

"Yes." Roach said, "Like you guys, find your home there. Like you and...Du Zhengyi."

She shrugged and grimaced, "Yeah, we have nothing else to do but these things anyway."

Roach tightly squeezed the pine branch in his pocket, the pine needles pierced his skin, and blood beads came out from his fingertips.
