Deep in the Living

Chapter 474: Quiet Sewer
"Is the fog itself... a form of terrifying life? Any individual exposed to the fog will have their most terrifying memories dug out and projected out?
Moreover, this fog will become thicker and thicker with time, or to be more precise, with the number of days.

The "fear effect" it brings will also be significantly increased.

Yesterday, it was only after long-term exposure that there would be a reaction, and this reaction could be contained to some extent. Today, before I even stepped out of the door, the source of fear appeared directly inside the fog, and it seemed to be a physical structure.

Mia, even if we go through the sewers, we still need to get to the village, which will take at least five minutes from here."

"Hurry up, three minutes...rush as fast as you can and ignore everything along the way."

Mia was in a very bad state, and was currently stomping back and forth in the house. It was more of an inner anxiety than fear.

This made Luo Di very curious about what such an extremely corrupt female murderer with a certain degree of mental illness would be afraid of.

"What did you see, Mia? Can you tell me?"

"Myself."

"Own?"

"Yes, what I fear most is getting old, with wrinkled skin and yellow complexion! I will no longer have the aura of a young girl, and I will no longer be able to lure those men to my home and kill them... I can't explain why I'm afraid.

It was clearly just self-aging yesterday, and it could have been stopped if I had run into the house in time.

Today, an 'old me' was actually formed directly in the thick fog. If that thing really exists, it would be very dangerous.

Because I'm so powerful, I might be killed by myself~
So, what did you see?"

Luo Di did not hide anything, but said it calmly: "My family... When I was just an ordinary student, my family was all killed. Perhaps because of the impact of the incident on my memory, I can't remember who killed them."

Mia put her index finger to her lips, "Family~ It shouldn't be me... I usually don't attack my family, and even if I do, I won't leave anyone alive.

If you remember who it was then, I might be able to help you kill him."

"Stop talking nonsense and let's go."

boom!
The door was not opened.
Instead, the roof of the villa was forcibly knocked open by a metal baseball bat, and two figures ran on the roof, sprinted to the eaves at the fastest speed, and jumped with all their strength.

Draw an arc of more than ten meters in the air,
Instead of landing on the ground, he stepped firmly on the tree trunk and continued jumping by using the remaining kinetic energy and the elastic potential energy conversion brought by the bending of the branches.

The two killers relied on their inhuman physical abilities to use the surrounding trees as fulcrums to move without touching the ground.

I didn't expect this approach to be so effective.

The terrifying figures created by the thick fog seemed to only appear on the ground. They could only try to catch up by climbing trees, but they would always be one step behind.

BANG! The glass breaks!

Mia crossed her arms in front of her, curled up her body, broke through the window, and rolled smoothly into a house at the edge of Stoneshade Town.

Rody, with an iron bucket hanging around his waist, also jumped in and steadied himself after a roll.

The terrifying figures corresponding to the two of them soon walked out of the broken window. Because they could not enter the house, they could only make strange grins and waved goodbye to each other.

“Day, night, blood.

Every common element can turn into fear. I wonder if the event we are in is made up of fear itself. Everything comes from fear itself. Danger is hidden everywhere. If you are not careful, you will be swallowed by fear.

The last day will probably make survival even more difficult.

Yesterday, the blood-related existence mentioned the word "videotape".

We are very likely in a story structure... We still don’t know how to ‘pass’ the game, and we don’t know what conditions must be met in order to survive.”

Mia, no longer chased by her aging self, had freed herself from her anxious state and slapped Roddy hard on the back.

"Aiya~ Why are you thinking so much? A murderer doesn't need to think about so many problems. All we need to do is kill everything, and then we can leave naturally."

"Ah."

Gah!
The mechanism pulls down and the secret door opens.

Instead of going down directly, the two men used a rope to send a kerosene lamp down first to find out the general situation of the sewer.

There was no thick fog covering it, only filth.

Everything was quiet within the area illuminated by the lights, and no danger was visible for the time being.

"Mia, your ability is related to corruption. Shouldn't you be very friendly to places like sewers? Even if there is danger, you should be able to detect it in advance and avoid it quickly, right?"

Mia suddenly poked Rody's head with her finger.

“You don’t understand [rot] at all.

The so-called decay is the most grand farewell ceremony of life forms. It will attract a large number of saprophytic audiences to witness and participate in this great moment. It will be a feast.

Where is the rot and corruption underneath?

There were no rats, no flies, no maggots, no participants. It was completely dead silent, even the light would be swallowed by the dead water. This is why I didn’t want to go here before. ”

Mia opened her mouth and several flies flew out and headed into the sewer.

Those flies that fall into garbage dumps and sewers die almost instantly, and only those flies that fall on the ground in sewers can survive normally.

"Death? I seem to know a friend who is very proficient in this area." When he thought of this, Rody couldn't help but touch his neck, as if he felt like he was being strangled.

"Rodi, do you know which direction the city is in?"

"Based on the directions of the villages, towns and cities pointed by the road signs, we can roughly determine... this side!
We just need to run in this direction later, and as long as we see the upward stairs, we should be able to reach [Winslem City]."

"Okay~ Let's run as fast as we can. Don't touch the filth and dirty water in the sewers. Those things are tainted with death."

"Ok."

The two jumped directly into the sewer.

Snapped!
The moment the sole touches the ground, the legs exert force.

This is physicality at its purest, running in a straight line at its simplest.

Mia's physical fitness was already excellent, and with the second heart that had just been installed yesterday, she had already created a huge gap between herself and Rody in less than ten seconds.

In comparison, Rody's speed was obviously slower.

The bucket around his waist didn't carry much weight, the most important thing was that Rody himself couldn't speed up.

He has now given it his all, with tentacles stuffed between his muscles, and he is also slightly coordinating the Blood Bible he studied yesterday to increase the rate and efficiency of his blood flow.

But something doesn't feel right.

“Before I participated in the ‘tape’, I seemed to be able to run faster.

I shouldn't be this strong, my body seemed to be stronger before. It was as if there was a structural center in my body that was independent of the brain and could control the whole body.

This ability seems to be related to the hook, hot and strong... What is it? It's obviously very important, but I can't remember it. "

While running, Rody gradually fell into deep thought, recalling the passion and the extreme running state he had once experienced.

As he recalled this, his spine gradually began to adapt to his flesh, began to heat up, and even a little steam came out.

The running speed gradually broke through the existing limit, getting faster and faster, and the body became hotter and hotter.

The heat began to spread all around.

The vague memory is becoming clear, and a symbol that does not belong to the corner is being outlined in the brain.

Suddenly...tick!
The sound of water drops directly interrupted the current memory and brought Rody back to reality.

Cold sweat instantly soaked Rody's back, and his spine, which had just warmed up, immediately returned to its original state.

A different one from blood,

A danger different from the night is approaching... or has already approached.

"So hot……"

A sound echoed in the long and deep sewer.

Gurgle, gurgle~the dirty water is bubbling.

Something is about to emerge.
Luo Di decisively put on the mask and tried his best to escape!

However, his right foot failed to move forward smoothly, and a cold and sticky touch came from under his feet.

Looking down,
A hand covered in dirt had already grasped his ankle.

"Oops!"

Pfft!
The water splashed gently, and fish bones, black hair and plastic bags swayed on the water surface, and the entire sewer became silent again.

Not far from the shore,
An iron bucket was left there.

……

Corner Mid-Level - Sorority Apartment (Basement).

Yu Lu, who was hanging herself and watching a supernatural movie channel in the corner, suddenly twitched slightly, and a faint and subtle sense of death came from the rope.

"Rodi!!"

Ps: I am not feeling well and suspected of being infected with the virus, so I will take a day off tomorrow.
