Zongman, can you be immortal with me for the rest of your life?

X-force is so powerful that it must be indispensable for clearing mines and filling battle lines.

However, he also felt that it would be inappropriate to carry such a burden, so he agreed.

But at this moment, the girl spoke instead.

"Takeuchi, I know this last name. I am Miyako Kamishiro, the sacrifice of this generation."

"Oh? So the Kamishiro family is indeed... Then you can come along, since you're the one involved, after all."

The man raised his eyebrows, but didn't say much.

"I came here to look for my family, my parents. They disappeared in the last mudslide. I felt something was wrong, so I came back. I didn't expect that they would harm my students..."

The man shook his head somewhat dejectedly and continued walking forward.

"This place shouldn't be without a way out. I heard there was a survivor in the mudslide incident. I don't know why I can't find any relevant information. But since there is a survivor, there should be a way out.

You don't have to despair too much, we can definitely find a way out if we work together."

This man seems to be a very reliable type, who would say such heartfelt words to someone he meets for the first time.

The three of them walked forward as a group for about half an hour, but it was a little strange.

"That's strange. I've encountered monsters all along the way, but why haven't they appeared since I've been with you guys?"

Folklorists are somewhat puzzled.

……

Kirito was at his location, dragging the old man, also named Shimura, all the way down.

It was indeed an unexpected arrival at Kazuma's team's destination.

"Is this... a church?"

After being dragged all the way by Kirito, the old man no longer wanted to commit suicide.

"Young man, let me go. Let me see."

He picked up the flashlight and scanned the surroundings.

"Yes, the church, this is the place. Let's go in and take a look."

For some reason, the door of the church was open a crack wide enough for one person to walk in. The furnishings inside were the same as they were during the day.

After looking around, Kirito closed the door to prevent anyone from stealing his ass.

"Church. I used to go there a lot when I was young. But I haven't been there since then."

The old man pointed behind him.

Kirito walked inside according to the memory of the waitress who asked for guidance. The furnishings here have been there for a long time.

But this time there is no need to worry so much. Kirito directly starts to learn from Li Sanguang in Resident Evil, rummaging through boxes and opening everything he can see to look for clues.

"Look, here it is."

However, there was obviously a gap in life experience. While Kirito was still rummaging through the cabinets, the old man found a sliding door under the carpet.

Kirito turned his head and glanced at the sliding cellar door that looked like the one in the famous horror movie "The Evil Dead", then squatted down and moved closer.

This small door is really not very conspicuous and it almost blends in with the floor.

As the old man opened the door, a dark, damp smell mixed with a disgusting stench of decay rushed out.

"vomit!"

Even the old man retched and sat down on the ground, looking at the door with some fear.

But he soon seemed to realize something.

"Brother, Koichi, you guys are not in there, are you?"

His hands suddenly began to tremble.

Seeing him like this, Kirito spoke directly:

"I'll go down and take a look. You're up there."

"No, I want to see it myself!"

Kirito couldn't persuade this old man, nor could he do what Keri did, saying, "If you don't listen to me, I'll kill you and you'll be obedient."

I could only agree to go down together.

Kirito held the handle of the flashlight in his mouth and a knife in one hand, using the undead's unique sliding technique to quickly descend. However, the depth here was only five or six meters, so he reached the bottom directly.

After Kirito came down, he quickly took out the flashlight and scanned the surroundings, then he shut his mouth.

People... a lot of people... no, maybe it would be more appropriate to say undead people.

There were so many of them that they were densely packed, covering the entire area.

"this……!"

The old man who followed Kirito down was also choked in horror.

In this relatively spacious underground space, there are cages and chairs, and corpses that are still breathing are either tied up or locked up.

Those things all gave off a rotten smell, and their bodies were indeed completely rotten. Some of them could still be seen in human form, while others had completely lost their human form.

And all of them are women.

But they all have one thing in common, that is, even if this happens, they cannot die.

Chapter 256: Tepco, you are stronger now.

Kirito's face twitched a little.

The village came across the Irithyll underground prison, which held so many undead that no one could understand it, no matter how hard they tried.

Kirito remembered that they had been to this church before, and this should have been dragged into reality.

In other words, this place should exist in reality.

Countless “people” are imprisoned in such a place...

Some of those things had no reaction at all to the entry of several people, while some were still able to open their mouths like zombies by instinct.

However, the completely rotten tongue in the open mouth could not make any sound, and could only make a weeping "Ga! Ga!" sound, which was creepy.

After seeing this scene, Akira Shimura forced himself to calm down. He also followed the flashlight to observe the people here. It seemed that they were still wearing clothes when they were imprisoned here, so perhaps he could identify their identities.

However, the clothes on most people had completely decayed, even clinging to their skin and flesh and becoming indistinguishable, until...

"This is... Kamishiro Ayako's mother. I met her when I was young, and she was wearing a pair of earrings just like this."

The old man pointed tremblingly at a woman who was closer to the door, his whole body shaking.

It is easy to imagine the shock of seeing a guy who, in one's memory, had only been seen decades ago, now in this state.

It was Kamishiro again. Kirito caught this keyword, so he asked Kazuma about the name Kamishiro Ayako and explained the current situation.

Kazuma gave the answer after asking Miyako Kamishiro beside him.

[Sato Kazuma: Kamishiro Ayako is the older sister of the girl I met]

Sato Kazuma: Since you're at the church, I don't need to go. I've almost figured it out. The places here are randomly projected from reality.

Kirito also figured it out. The girl Kazuma mentioned she met before also claimed to be an immortal.

Then it makes sense. In each generation of the Kamishiro family, the elder sister is responsible for continuing the bloodline, while the younger sister is the sacrifice.

Therefore, the Kamishiro family should never let outsiders know that there is a little girl in the family, so it is right for Shimura, as the heir to the breeding position of this generation, to know Kamishiro Ayako.

Then the girl was right when she said she was immortal, but their immortality seemed to be inherited from their bloodline.

Moreover, their immortality will gradually rot but they cannot die.

Probably for this reason, in order to avoid attracting attention from the outside world, the Kamishiro family tied up all the rotting people in the family in this basement.

If Kirito had first learned about this situation, he would have thought of a pile of mummies in an underground palace deciding the future of the world.

It’s a pity that the reality is that this group of people have controlled this village for so many generations just by relying on their numbers.

Although it didn't seem like the right time to think about this, Kirito somehow thought of it at this moment.

Will people like me be like this, or will they be the same as those things outside that are neither human nor dog.

As time passes, more and more inhuman features appear, or become increasingly decayed.

Until one day, just like those mummies tied in the last row here, all the hair fell off, the teeth fell out, and only the shriveled skin wrapped around the swollen internal organs was left, and all the descendants would have to suffer the same treatment.

Kirito's hands and feet were a little cold, but he still shook these thoughts out of his mind.

If that's the case, then let Kerry cut off his immortality with one sword.

Although everyone in the world seeks eternal life, Kirito believes that the most important thing is to live happily in the present.

Anyway, I am already dead. I died on that trip to Totsuki a long time ago. Every remaining day is earned.

Only when you are with yourself, this nagging thing no longer exists.

Kirito took out a mask and put it on himself to isolate himself from the stench and the faint fragrance emanating from these things.

Start searching in this dark room.

The further he looked, the more frightened Kirito became. It was hard to imagine how old these things trapped here were. Even some cages that were obviously made of steel looked like cultural relics.

These things also bear witness to the time they have spent. It is very likely that those engraved objects have been trapped here by their descendants for hundreds of years, or even... thousands of years.

After staying motionless for a thousand years in this dark and empty basement, the horror that could be felt from the message made Kirito feel a little uneasy.

After shaking for a while, Shimura angrily came to the female corpse he recognized.

The other person was tied to a chair with wire.

It was two hours after that roar, and they still hadn't found the culprit or found a way out.

On the other side, Kerry crossed a small red river and arrived at an area that looked somewhat familiar.

"This is……?"

Looking at the familiar wall, Kerry remembered.

Isn’t this the elementary school in Hanyu Village?

In the past few days, they walked through the village every day and were very familiar with the place.

The main reason why he didn't recognize it at first was that there were obviously a few very old buildings next to the school, but they looked like campus facilities. However, Kerry was very sure that there was nothing there before.

"Buzz!"

There were faint, sharp sounds coming from the teaching building, and it seemed that...

broadcast?

Kerry was a little confused because the sound sounded like the radio. This was in another world, and the radio still had power? There was no engine noise at all.

Now we have to admit the strength of Tokyo Electric Power Company.

However, a little girl's voice soon came from the noisy broadcast.

"Teacher! Teacher! Save me! Teacher!"

The voice seemed to be that of a little girl. Kerry frowned slightly and jumped over the two-meter wall into the school.

Just a casual sweep.

Originally, Kerry was still speculating about the location of the broadcasting room based on architecture.

But he soon spotted a figure running in the corridor.

It seemed to be a living person.

Kerry moved the flashlight over there.

"ah!"

The man let out a scream and fell to the ground. No, it might not be appropriate to say that he fell. He might have rolled over to avoid being shot.

Kerry was actually more curious about why the people in Hanyu Snake Village could face the zombies so calmly.
