Chapter 10 Mutants(1/2)
The twilight covers the earth, and the crescent moon hangs high in the sky.
Maripo under the moonlight is divided into two different halves, one half located in the towering city walls, with exquisite buildings brightly lit, and the taverns are bustling and bustling, and soldiers patrolling the streets.
Half of them are located outside the city walls, the walls of collapsed houses, the cracked ground, the domestic garbage left by homeless men and beggars, the dirty and rotten beds are everywhere, and the terrifying pits like meteorites bombarding the ground, the howlings of wolves and wild dogs are heard from time to time in the dark corners, and insects are croaking among the shrubs and sparse poplar trees.
What's even more terrifying is that a ravine spanning a hundred meters decomposes the entire old city into pieces. Even the moonlight cannot shine with its details, like a giant python quietly lying in the darkness.
Puff puff puff.
One after another, black shadows jumped past the ravines, landing silently like an antelope jumping through a ravine, the cloak absorbed the moonlight, as dark as the night.
He was a ghostly figure and disappeared without a trace of his eyes.
Buzz...
They found a black brocade entrance to the deep winter next to a beautiful red rose southwest of the crack.
“The thirteenth sewer in the old city.”
Roy exchanged glances with his companions.
Outlined with the five fingers.
Golden and dark magic shields cover the thin leather armor.
Gulugulu.
Cat potion,
The pupils dilate, easily penetrate the night, and look at the night like the day.
Roy stepped down the crunching old wooden ladder.
But after two seconds, it landed smoothly. A pair of silver-gray pupils flashed with faint light, illuminating a dark and ancient corridor with potholes on the side walls, with vines and weeds, and slippery moss growing.
The old city area was abandoned for many years, but the underground connection to the sewer in the city of Malipo, accepting domestic waste and sewage from the city.
Therefore, it is dark, damp, and emits a strong odor.
...
The two sides of the corridor lead to unknown darkness, sending the fermented corruption and smelly air.
A black and sticky river flows in the middle of the pipe, mixed with various types of garbage - rotten food residues, excrement, and all kinds of floating objects: boots, torn clothes, and small animals' bones.
Kaiyan and the unwilling Triss were arranged to guard the entrance to prevent accidents.
Eleven witch hunters and corals, Karkstan walked on both sides of the passage, cautiously, gently walking, trying his best to keep quiet.
Roy squatted halfway like a hunting cat, and with a thought, the witch hunter's senses opened.
A series of crisscrossing and radiant ribbons appeared in the air.
It represents the footprints of mice, lizards, poisonous snakes, cockroaches...small animals and insects.
But unfortunately, no one is related to the witch hunter or the warlock.
He was not discouraged. The four great masters were all hidden experts, and it was just a common practice to eliminate traces cleanly and neatly.
So, according to the instructions of the sewer structure diagram, we headed towards the area with the largest space in the center of the sewer.
After a quarter of an hour of marching, forked branches appeared in the dark corridor from time to time, but the witch hunter did not divide his troops into several ways, which was a death-sending action on the strange territory.
The wind and waves along the way were unusually calm.
Not to mention the water ghosts and ghouls that often appear in the sewers... there are very few rats a little bigger, but plant herbs in the dark ecology can be seen everywhere and flourish.
"Click!"
Oaks, who was at the front of the left team, suddenly stopped, controlled the trembling snake pendant between his neck, and made a stop gesture to everyone.
Squat down, his left hand was less than two feet above the ground, and his fingers quickly outlined Alder's gesture.
The wind blew.
The dust and mud on the ground were blown away, and a circular magic array suddenly appeared, small and small, like a circular disk.
There are several ancient characters in it, which are vaguely arranged in a radiant flame shape, but it makes people feel a little hot when you look at it.
"Fire Rune... the simplest magic trap." Kalkstein in the crowd glanced at him, and explained with a suppressed voice...
"So we're here to the right place!"
Roy suppressed the excitement in his tone, and his eyes ejaculated with excitement.
"Ordinary people, including most witch hunters, don't have the ability to create magic traps... they can only be made by Idaran or Arzu." Seret looked at the brothers with a serious expression, "Be careful next. If things are wrong, don't be stingy with teleporting crystals!"
The dark road ahead hides unknown dangers. In less than ten minutes, everyone discovered more than thirty institutions in total.
Not only flames, explosions, frosts, and ecstasy magic traps, but also trigger mechanisms made of ordinary materials and steel clip traps...
Fortunately, there are two experts in the magic field, such as Oaks and Threit, who are proficient in various traps, as well as Coral and Karkstan.
They can always avoid the mechanism in the most exquisite way, let them remain silent and move forward in a hidden and rapid manner.
In the ditches along the way, excrement began to increase, including mice, snakes, cattle, sheep, pigs, and other large livestock bones.
It is very likely that these things will appear in the sewer, so who brought them in?
Everyone's steps became more and more cautious.
Near the thirty corner of the passage.
The two teams stopped at the same time, controlling the trembling pendant between their necks, retracting their breathing, and keeping their quiet.
The eyes were set forward.
An abnormal situation occurred in Weinan vision.
A standing figure is projected on the wall around the corner.
The lines of the back, legs, and hands are clearly visible.
However, it is too strong, with a height of nearly three meters, and is about to reach the ceiling of the sewer. Its slightly hunched back forms a toned inverted triangle, and its muscles are exaggerated so that it seems to explode at any time.
It has no neck, and its pointed head is directly connected to the back, bent forward, forming a conical projection.
It reminds people of the mouse head that has been enlarged a hundred times. From the projection changes on the wall, it can be seen that its slender sniff opens and closes, and its steel needle-like beard trembles at the corners of its mouth.
His arms and claws were holding something and chewing at him.
Kazkaz.
With one round after another, it was imperceptible and listened carefully, it made the scalp chewing sound numb.
The witch hunters' faces became very exciting.
Just from that strange projection, I can’t even think of what kind of monster this thing is?
The gap with the zombie ghoul, water ghost, and bat-winged demon is very obvious.
But this time, they couldn't get around it by taking advantage of it.
...
Everyone squatted down and walked slowly towards the other side against the wall.
The silent cloak of the mass seller and the double seal perfectly covers his body odor and footsteps.
The humanoid creature was completely displayed in front of everyone. A rat man was like a burly man. The body of the burly man was not covered with inches of strands, and his skin was covered with a layer of black and thick mane.
A black snake-like tail behind him wrapped around his left leg, tightened and loosened.
The eight nails on the two front paws looked like eight daggers with cold light flashing, with blood flowing into a goat that had been dead for a long time and had been holding it in his arms.
Scarlet eyes were full of greed and cunning.
As the bloody mouth opened and closed, a row of sharp saw teeth that were uneven like saws were gently tore off a piece of bloody hairy meat from the goat.
While chewing, he stretched out his barbed tongue and licked and cleaned up the blood-contaminated mane on his body.
...
Roy glanced at everyone behind him, grabbed the crossbow from the void, and pulled the trigger without aiming.
Whoosh-
The bowstring buzzes.
The arrow tore the dirty air in the sewer and drew a straight line of silver light.
The moment the arrow reached the body, the rat mane was covered in mane and stood upside down.
It seems to have turned into a short-haired hedgehog!
"Bang!"
The tail whip was thrust in a flash, so fast that it outlined a series of afterimages in the air.
Bang!
The crossbow arrow that was invincible was actually slapped away by its tail!
Half cut-off the tail landed.
It didn't have time to react more.
A dangerous blood ray gushed out from the junction of the tail and the arrow, instantly wrapping the rat man, who was so strong that he almost occupied the entire sewer, into a blood cocoon!
A figure standing with a sword was reflected on the wall.
The sword blade broke through the air, and several dull sounds of flesh flowed into the air.
The blood light and sword light in the sky, and the runes shine together.
Crazy.
A large area of steaming flesh and blood fell to the ground.
To be continued...
