Tiny rustling sounds followed the figure as it crawled up the edge and disappeared.
With the uncontrollable groan of pain in his ears, Lu Li pulled out the sharp dagger, raised it and the blood was flowing. Through the horrifying blur of flesh and blood in the palm that was unable to be closed, he could see the rock wall in the distance littered with gravel and lava.
Lu Li cut open his shirt, wrapped the torn strips of cloth around his palms, tied them tightly, then turned around and walked up the steps.
Knight Veno, who was lying on his back panting on the cold stone steps, gritted his teeth and got up, only to be pulled back by his heavy leg armor.
"Exorcist, you can't leave...!"
He raised his trembling palms that were bleeding heavily and took off his leg armor while raising his head and shouting, but he could only watch the figure stumbling up the nearly collapsed stone steps gradually go away.
The tremors still reverberate from the depths of the ground at a fixed frequency, but they are no longer unstoppable. Everything in the spiral hall that is still intact is as usual, and there is a strange phenomenon peeping into the collapse layer on the branch line of the rock wall.
The disgusting, rotten, rickety body with thick juices sniffed its protruding and weird snout, and followed the guidance of hunger and the smell of blood to approach Lu Li.
bang
The deafening ringing and trembling made the monsters think that a new collapse was coming, and they fled to hide in the branch line. The pungent gunpowder smoke sounded from the muzzle, and the face of the abominable monster was blown to pieces, and it fell to the ground miserably.
Lu Li lowered his bloody palm, reached into his pocket with his left hand, rubbed it briefly, took out a wooden box and opened it with his thumb.
The eyeballs lying in the box swayed with the vibration.
The monster whose face was smashed did not die directly, but was still screaming and struggling in the smoke.
Lu Li couldn't shoot it again to end its pain, because the other bullets were lost in the escape.
However, the miserable condition of the monster made the coveted "scavengers" around him afraid to approach. However, as the monster finally stopped struggling, a trace of humanity like a firefly poured into its body, and the weird person who was lingering and watching quietly approached Lu Li again and then retreated again.
A tall silhouette appeared above Lu Li a few steps away.
"Bring all the believers here." Lu Li said to the businessman Anthony.
It leaves as quietly as it arrived.
The weird businessman made these cowardly and greedy monsters retreat, but it didn't last long. Another thin, stunted ghoul approached Lu Li.
Lu Li put the psychic gun back into its holster, and his calm black eyes fell behind the short ghoul.
The obscure prayer-like murmur disappeared in a flash, and the sharp claws of the short ghoul suddenly grabbed the slender neck, spitting out unspeakable darkness, and collapsed and melted.
The flowing darkness is like a shadow disturbed by light, dissipating invisible.
More than thirty figures in Taoist uniforms were squatting on the stone steps, like a black wave kneeling before Lu Li.
There are covetous and greedy people all around, but no more prying eyes that are not well-intentioned.
Puseus, wagging his tail, emerged from the prostrate believers with his eldest sister's head on his back: "Where are Miss Ophelia and Mr. Jon!"
Lu Li picked up the cloak offered by a crawling believer and put it on. The eldest sister's head skillfully jumped onto her shoulders, put it into the hood, and rolled over inside to reveal her head.
"Ophelia and Jon are on the seventh floor. Find them." Lu Li said to the believers, looking back at the edge of the cliff on the sixth floor: "Escort that human back to the Midnight City terminal."
A small number of believers dispersed, and other believers gathered around Lu Li, walking up the stone steps of the spiral hall away from the source of the tremors.
The depression becomes weaker as we get closer and closer to the surface, but as we climb the last step, a breathless surge comes over us.
"What's going on..."
Pusius uneasily retreated behind Lu Li, and the docile figures around him brought scant comfort.
The main street in front of me was silent. There were no moving silhouettes, only the oil lamps left in front of the shops or the fluorescent alchemy slabs.
But the extreme weirdness is not completely silent. The buildings on both sides of the main line are lit up with sneaky and obscure peeks, and there are more and more of them.
The deeper you go into the street, the denser the prying eyes become, and the depressive and eerie surroundings become more intense. It seems as if you will lose your mind at any time due to this dead noise.
And just like the story will eventually have an ending, the drama will eventually come to an end. The source of the strange scene before us.
The short and thin law enforcer was waiting for them, raising his head and roaring wildly and crazily.
"My master declares this to be a great time!"
"The master's master delivered the oracle!"
"Start the war against the deep!"
"Kill! Occupy! Order!"
"You! will be the beginning!"
The twisted neck gradually fell back, and the law enforcer panted and drooled, staring at Lu Li closely: "I'm listening... You were attacked on the lower floor... right?"
The apparent quietness takes over the streets.
But countless eyes in the house are watching, the quietly flowing wind brings an obscure atmosphere, hateful eyes open on the rock wall, and twisted notes stretch out from the shack.
The weird boss who occupies the depths is paying attention here.
They are listening too.
Lu Li seemed to be in a dilemma that was more difficult to make than the commission from the God of the Deep Sea.
Behind the weak and thin body of the law enforcer, dark twins seem to rise and cast shadows.
They want to use Lu Li to launch a war against the deep layers.
There seems to be no need to choose between the order camp or the chaos camp, but no matter which side, the ants will only suffer disaster.
"What happened below was just an accident." Lu Li replied.
The law enforcer opened his mouth and wanted to roar angrily, but for some reason he stopped and fell into a strange silence.
"You're going to regret this decision, soon."
The law enforcers slowly retreated and disappeared deep into the dark and silent streets.
Lu Li was left here.
Stay on the mainline streets surrounded by raging weirdness.
The sound of rough friction on the rocks was heard, and the outline of the rock was smashed from the top of the rock wall, sending rubbles flying.
"hand over……"
The blood seeping out of the cloth slowly turned into a dark yellow color like a rock, and the wounds under the cloth felt intense and painful like gravel rubbing against each other.
"The crystal currency is not with me." Lu Li frowned and put on his hood, no longer looking at it to slow down the distortion.
"Then... catch... you..."
"You are making a deal with the devil. Human beings say that devils have no credibility and never keep their promises." Lu Li endured the pain and replied with distortion: "Do you really believe that a human can exchange for crystal currency?"
"And I keep the Deep from falling into war."
"That's...a pity." Rock Weird expressed regret.
"I have a clear goal, and the power behind it releases the desire for the Eye of the Ancient God. Otherwise, why would a human appear in the deep layers. Bring the Eye of the Ancient God, and the currency is yours."
Rock weird slow thinking.
"You have other competitors." Lu Li continued to add. "With every second of delay, the Eye of the Ancient God and the strange crystal currency are more likely to be obtained by other beings."
Lu Li's plain whisper added to the credibility. The strangeness of the rock was touched by him, and the whisper threatened to merge into the earth and disappear.
"Are we safe?" Pusius asked fearfully: "Why don't you tell the law enforcers the truth?"
Lu Li raised his black eyes, and before answering, a sudden bulge erupted under his feet, and huge claws like houses appeared.
