"Calm down, calm down."
In the dark alley, Forsi crossed his arms on his chest and said to himself with trembling breaths.
She stared at the area with hidden fear in her eyes.
At the top, dark red fire clouds filled the sky. The time here seemed to be the same as when she came, it was also dusk, but it was even darker.
Below, layers upon layers of weird buildings fill the field of vision.
Black Gothic spiers, bridges with strange reliefs, and vertical architectural structures that are completely unlike the normal world.
This can't be Backlund.
In front of you is a pavement made of gray and black stone bricks.
The alley she was in was lined with low-rise residential buildings with weird decorations on both sides.
On one side is a door with a red light, and there is light leaking out from the crack in the door, indicating that someone is probably living there.
On the other side is the back of the building, with only a dark window and a strangely thin iron railing on the outside, as if afraid of some monster breaking in.
Corresponding to this are the creepy depressions on the iron rods.
It looks like a tooth mark.
The extremely gloomy environment instantly broke down the girl's non-existent psychological defense.
"I can't calm down at all!"
"What the hell is this place?! What happened to me?"
Forsi bit her fingers subconsciously, but in vain she found that she couldn't calm down at all, so she held her head and said in pain.
She tried to recall the only clues in her mind: "What happened before?"
".Suddenly unfolding ripples, changes, etc., I must have been involved in an extraordinary event."
She was obviously at home, staying with Xio.
But just as they were happily preparing dinner, a terrifying purple vortex suddenly appeared under her feet, and she was instantly swallowed up without any resistance.
The good news is that at least Hugh was not involved in this incident like her.
When the whirlpool appeared, her friend reacted very quickly and rushed forward, trying to hold her back but without success.
". But she will definitely call the police for me." Forsi murmured, "The church should not be stingy. Don't worry, I will be saved soon, that's right."
She emphasized the last sentence repeatedly, her tone trembling.
Because she knew it was unlikely.
Taken together, she must have been involved in some extraordinary incident!
The mortality rate of similar incidents has always been very high. Not to mention ordinary people, even if they meet the official extraordinary people of the church, it will be very disastrous, let alone something that can allow people to be transferred to another dimension.
Her personality must be far beyond her ordinary low-sequence character.
But we can't sit still and wait for death.
After several struggles, the girl finally chose to take a few shaky steps forward and cautiously explore her surroundings.
She slowly approached the most unexpected object in this street——
A lantern.
It stands strangely in the middle of the alley, and is incompatible with the surrounding decorations.
After observing for a long time, the girl in a clean plaid skirt couldn't help but stretch out her white right hand, and a little fire suddenly appeared on her hand.
The ability of the ‘Master of Magic’!
If this is a scene created by hallucination-type extraordinary abilities, lighting the lantern may cause some changes.
She thought this with hopes that were doomed to fail.
The weak flame in the hand is close to the wick.
None.
"?"
Forsi's eyes widened in disbelief.
This is the fire lit by her extraordinary ability! No matter how wet the candle is, it won’t fail to light, right?
She clicked again in disbelief.
Still not there.
"What?"
"Can't light it?"
After repeatedly trying the lamp wick up and down several times, she finally reluctantly admitted that the first object she encountered in this area was completely abnormal.
Even extraordinary abilities cannot make this thing that should light up move.
"Hey! It's at the door!"
Suddenly there was a loud knocking sound on the door panel next to him, as if he heard the movement in the street and made the noise deliberately.
Forsi was frightened by the sudden movement and looked to the right in horror, not expecting that she would be noticed.
There is someone inside the door!
It's a woman's high-pitched voice.
Although she really wanted to be accompanied when she went to a strange area, the other person sounded weird.
"Where did you come from? Oh, what a misfortune, to be left outside on this terrible night, haha. The lives of short-lived ghosts are all similarly miserable."
"Or are you a member of the Healing Church, or a hunter?"
The woman spoke with nostalgia for her returning husband, her tone so seductive that it sent chills all over her body.
This person is absolutely mentally disturbed!
Forsi realized in horror that he held his breath and did not dare to make any sound, lest he would be targeted by the other party.
The iron rule of the extraordinary world: When you encounter a creature showing abnormal behavior, you must not talk to it!
Any communication is equivalent to actively establishing a mystical connection with the other party, which will only put yourself in a worse situation.
There is only silence in the alley.
After dozens of seconds, the woman who received no response suddenly became fierce and sharp:
"why do not you answer me?!"
"A foreigner? Really? Are you a member of the damn hunters! Oh, if you hadn't worked hard, this place wouldn't have become what it is now, you damn despicable species!"
At the end of the words, the female voice almost turned into a scream, echoing in the sky.
Accompanied by the harsh noise of scratching the door panel, and a 'click' sound that made Forsi's hair stand on end -
The sound of broken nails!
The door panel was also shaking violently.
In her mind, she instantly imagined a terrifying scene of a beautiful lady on the door panel, scratching her hands until her hands were bleeding, and her bones were protruding.
Those blood-filled eyes would definitely stare at her outside through the cat's eyes.
Ahhhh!!!
I can't stand it anymore, Hugh, where are you, come and save me? Woohoo!
Forsi, who was so frightened by her own thoughts that her legs and feet weakened, clung to the wall in horror, panting continuously, her wide red lips making her look like a pitiful screaming chicken forced to a desperate end.
But something worse is about to come——
"Woof woof woof!!"
At the end of the street, a dim firelight suddenly appeared, and a huge shadow reflected on the wall.
The sickly barking of wild dogs was heard.
And, following the sound, a large number of chaotic footsteps appeared.
"Here! Here!"
"Get out!"
A man's loud voice appeared at the entrance of the alley, and his words were slurred, as if a corpse with a swollen tongue was talking.
An uncontrollable sense of fear arose in Forsi's heart, just like after listening to a scary radio broadcast, he suddenly realized that he was actually present inside.
Spirituality was giving her an early warning.
Almost instinctively, she reached for the bracelet on her wrist in horror——
'travel'!
A few minutes later, the alley welcomed a second visitor.
The sky dyed red still enveloped the city below calmly.
The strange lantern that stood in the middle of the road and failed to be lit by Forsi suddenly ignited without fire and lit up a dim purple light, illuminating the surrounding gloomy streets.
A black figure appeared beside it.
A few steps away, the door was still banging from the inside.
"Haha, hahaha! Poor stupid people, idiots with questionable IQs, actually dare to go out on a hunting night!"
"Come on, you're going to die anyway, why don't you die by me."
Zheng——
The bright silver light penetrated the wooden board!
The sharp blade penetrated the cat's eye, pulling out winding cracks all around!
"Shut your stupid mouth." The young man in black appeared from the lantern and said politely.
The women's screams stopped abruptly.
In this warm and hospitable city, a friendly exchange ended successfully.
Compared to Forsi, who had just been scared away, Yager's communication method was obviously more efficient and fully complied with local customs.
Look, the locals left so satisfied.
Yager nodded to himself and withdrew the sharp flying knife that had penetrated into the wood three points and had suspicious blood spots on the tip.
The cat's eye that Forsi had just stared at with trembling eyes was only a broken hole, and behind it, the woman with a sharp smile was nowhere to be seen.
No one dared to make a sound from inside the door.
After the alley returned to silence, Yager, who appeared here, finally had time to observe his surroundings.
The black-haired young man raised his eyes slightly and took in the situation here.
According to Miss Doll's explanation, the area opened by this 'Holy Communion' comes from his past, which is filled with all kinds of beast-like monsters and is full of dangers.
Judging from the number of blood-soaked attachments on the Holy Grail in the dream, six or seven people should have entered it inexplicably this time.
Now, what he needs to do is to find them in the city and prevent them from becoming the appetizers of the 'Holy Communion'.
Pretty simple, right?
"Bang!"
'Evelin' on her left hand suddenly raised her hand and fired fiercely at the entrance of the alley!
A speeding wild dog was forcibly stopped in mid-air. The beast's blurry pupils popped out, and the brains and blood exploded onto the black and gray road.
died.
Yager calmly put away his gun.
Thank you for the invitation. Everything feels inexplicably familiar, as if I'm home.
In the gloomy alley, the reflection of the black-haired young man is very long on the wall. It doesn't look like a brave man who came to save people in the alley, but like he belongs to it, wandering on the road.
The villain leader.
He blends in well with the horror style.
Although it was dusk, the 'hunting night' that the women in the alley talked about had obviously begun.
With the idea of passing through the experience in this area and guessing the general direction of action after exiting, Yager walked out of the dead end and came to the main street connecting to the outside.
As the lowest level of stacked buildings, the structure of the block is not complicated.
The road extends into the distance and penetrates into the broad bridge area above. The tall round-arched building completely covers the road behind it.
Therefore, it is pitch dark here.
The dim light of the setting sun made the road ahead barely visible, but it still glowed with a strange red light.
In the shadows, a tall and strong werewolf turned his head towards this place, exhaling a clear and conspicuous piece of white air.
It's looking for death.
This was the only thought in Yager's mind.
Turn the gun.
With a dull gunshot, the huge werewolf with flesh and saliva entwined in its sharp teeth half-knelt on the ground without any resistance, and its chest was severely cut open by a gloved right hand.
"Wow——"
The creepy flowing sound, together with large pieces of internal organs, flowed onto the already dirty masonry.
Further away, silhouettes similar to those of dead werewolves on the ground were often seen.
The neat hunt will be repeated.
Killing, monsters, and madness are the eternal themes of this small town. Without too much emphasis, visitors can naturally realize the problems here.
Just as Yager was about to move on, a trembling female voice suddenly appeared in the distance:
"Yes, is it you? Mr. Drester."
The hunter raised his eyebrows slightly and looked up.
Next to the towering pillars of the bridge, a beautiful girl walked out. Her hair exuded a healthy luster and her eyes were green. At first glance, she was incompatible with the surrounding environment.
She was carrying a complicated long skirt, as if she had just left a palace banquet. Her pale face and anxious expression meant that she was indeed an intruder in the town.
"Miss Audrey?"
A look of surprise finally appeared on Yager's face.
Unexpectedly.
He thought that whoever came in would be an acquaintance, such as Lunze who had received injections, or Pales Zoroastrian who was not afraid of death and actually used blood therapy.
If it's Palles, it's at least very likely that he'll survive until he shows up.
The result is Miss Justice?
It's really dangerous for her to come in with this kind of strength!
I don't know what Yager was thinking, but Audrey on the opposite side finally found the organization. She breathed a sigh of relief, and her beautiful face showed a somewhat unethical feeling of happiness about surviving the disaster.
She just emerged from the smelly sewer!
There are terrifying creatures and malicious inhabitants everywhere, each of them very powerful.
What a terrifying place this is!
Even the Earl's daughter has no clue about this. At least she can be sure that this will never happen in a normal Loen city.
"Thank you Fool!"
Audrey couldn't help praying in her breath, and her delicate features were full of panic and joy: "Mr. Drester, it's so great to meet you here!"
"Do you know why we are here and how we get out?"
She tried hard not to look at the miserable corpse on the ground, and quickly approached Yager in a few steps.
From a mystical perspective, this is actually a bit reckless.
In extraordinary events, you can't be sure whether it's a real acquaintance or a disguised monster or hallucination.
On the other side, Yager looked at Audrey carefully in confusion before he had to convince himself that it was her.
He shook his head: "I'm not sure why."
"According to the information I have obtained, this may be a certain extraordinary item that does not know the connection between us, so it was involved at the same time."
"I'm still looking for an exit."
He didn't choose to tell the truth.
In the introduction of Miss Doll, it was explained that the only way for people to leave is through the 'Holy Communion'.
That is: either everyone inside will die.
Either the diner dies.
As long as you defeat the gatekeeper in the area, you can open the exit on the top floor.
"Is this like this?" Audrey's chest rose and fell violently several times, but she suppressed it well and tried to maintain her composure. Obviously, this news made her a little worried.
"I thought you would know."
"After all, you seem to get along well here."
