Inside The Black Mist Chapter 921: Laughter

A stone rolled down from the window and fell into the darkness where the light couldn't reach. After a while, there was a faint sound.

In front of Tianyang, there are still a few iron cables spanning the void. They are fixed on the wall and extend into the windows of a building in front.

"The ground is dangerous, so we won't go there if we don't have to."

Shi Huo pointed to the iron cableways outside the window: "We connect these 'cableways' between buildings, which allow us to travel through the city without stepping on the ground."

"In the past few decades, we have installed thousands of 'cableways' in the ancient city, which allow us to travel to most parts of the ancient city."

Ah Jiu whispered beside him: "But not including the Snake Temple."

Shi Huo nodded: "Yes, the Snake Temple is in the center of this ancient city. We can only use the 'cableway' to walk two-thirds of the distance. For the remaining one-third, we must find a way to build new ones between buildings. 'Ropeway', or you have to venture on the ground and pass through the ground."

Tianyang asked him: "Where did you go to the Snake Temple last time?"

Shi Huo said without expression: "Of course we walked on the ground. An accident happened that time, so we had to go down to the ground. Then, in a series of escapes, we went to the Snake Temple."

Fusheng leaned over and asked, "What's on the ground?"

"Things that spread infinitely are also called 'ones that cannot be seen'." Shi Huo explained, "It looks like a little girl, and we think that its image should come from a certain resident in the ancient city. "

"There may be only one of that kind of thing at first. If you look at it, your body shape will be transformed step by step until the shape is exactly the same as it. Once transformed, you will become one of them, There is no possibility of reversing this process."

"In that accident, many of us were transformed by it. Although as long as you don't look at it, there will be no danger. Besides, that thing will do everything possible to look at you. aggressive behavior."

After a while, Ah Jiu said in fear: "But there are too many of them, they can emerge from your side at any time, and once you meet their eyes, it's over."

"They spread infinitely in this way, creating themselves one after another, gradually occupying the ground. Fortunately, they can be attacked and killed."

"But instead of wasting time fighting them, it is better to get out before you are surrounded by them. And if you fight, they will come from all directions, you can't kill that many at all. And even if you close your eyes, or blindfolded Eyes. But as long as your eyes are in front of their line of sight, you will still be assimilated."

Shi Huo raised a finger: "Only by blinding your own eyes can you avoid assimilation. One of our companions at that time has tried it and proved it is feasible. But there are no such monsters on the ground, and blind eyes are in this ancient city." Here, it is no different from suicide.”

Tianyang pondered and said: "It sounds like the ability of this kind of thing should be related to the retina. Only a damaged retina can avoid being assimilated by it."

"If you build a screen to protect the retina, you should be able to look at them and not be assimilated. But it's too dangerous and unnecessary, so don't try it."

At the same time, I thought to myself, this ancient underground city is really strange, there are so many strange things underground. What's even more strange is that after so many years, they have not been seen running outside.

If these weird things run outside, the disaster they will cause will definitely not be smaller than the beast tide.

At this point, they are about to start climbing over the ropeway.

Tianyang passed by first, he rose and fell a few times, let an iron chain shake slightly, and he had already swept into the window. As soon as he entered the window, Tianyang immediately took precautions, but in fact, he had already sensed the situation in the window in advance when he was skimming on the cableway, and he didn't find any danger.

After confirming that there was no danger, he waved to the people over there, and then Shi Jiu and the others began to crawl over.

Using this method, they passed between the buildings, and half a day passed in a blink of an eye.

Calculating the time, it is already noon at this moment, but there is no sunlight at all under the ground, if you don't have a clock, you won't notice the passage of time at all.

It's time to rest and recuperate. They chose a small room. In this room, Tianyang saw some things left by the explorers, such as anthracite.

Stone Fire used these items to set up a marching pot in the room, lit a fire with anthracite, and cooked food in the pot.

Ah Jiu smiled lightly: "We sometimes explore the ancient underground city for three to five days, at least we have to stay for a day or two, and we often have to climb the ropeway, so it is impossible to bring a lot of supplies with us. "

"So when we are exploring, we will bring a little more things, and then store them in a safer place like this for resupply."

Fu Sheng was about to say something, when suddenly, there was a burst of indistinct laughter from outside the room.

"Hahaha..."

It sounds like a woman's laughter. Unexpectedly, underground, in this dim environment, hearing such laughter, even Tian Yang felt weird, and the expressions of the others were naturally even worse.

Oh, Xing Luo was an exception, there was no change in her expression.

The stone fire immediately poured water on the stove, extinguished the fire, and made a 'silence' gesture to everyone.

Everyone held their breath and didn't dare to move. They could only hear the laughter outside rising and falling, sometimes wildly laughing, sometimes low and chuckling.

"Giggle..."

"Hahaha..."

The laughter gradually approached, as if they had come to the door, everyone's nerves were tense, and they didn't know what was going on outside the door.

Beside Ah Jiu, a lean man was about to raise his gun with trembling hands. When Ah Jiu saw it, he quickly pressed it and shook his head.

Suddenly.

There was a 'bang' sound outside the door, as if someone was knocking on the door, the laughter sounded intermittently but unusually loudly outside the door, as if a woman was laughing crazily outside.

But where does this woman come from under the ground?

At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open with a gap, Tian Yang immediately grasped the hilt of 'Moonlight', and almost pulled out the sword exchanged from the church.

A hand came in from outside the door. This hand has long, slender fingers and small bones. It looks like a woman's palm. But there is no skin on the hands, bright red muscles and white fascia can be seen.

Everyone's eyes fell on this hand, but it fumbled for a moment, then shrank back, and then the creepy, goosebump-dropping laughter gradually faded away.

Until the laughter stopped, Shi Huo breathed a sigh of relief: "It's safe."

He lit the fire again, and the faint light of the fire illuminated everyone's faces.

Without waiting for Tianyang and the others to ask, Shi Huo said, "It's a very dangerous foreign object in the ancient city. We call it the 'crazy girl', or the 'laughing girl'."

"No one has actually seen it, so it is not clear what it looks like, but we have seen its back, seen its shadow, and seen some parts of its body."

"Combining the information that everyone knows, we can roughly piece together its image. It is a monster with several heads, and those heads are all women. No one has seen a man's head, at least not now. .”

"Except for the multiple heads, the other parts are the same as normal people. However, it has no skin. It is just like the hand you saw just now. Its body is only blood red and gray and white. "

"It's always laughing, like something funny, so it keeps laughing. Its laughter is contagious. If it didn't leave for more than 10 minutes, then we have to find a way Evacuate, or kill it."

"Because if you listen to it for a quarter of an hour and you start laughing too, and you can't stop laughing, you'll die laughing."

"In addition, it can freely control its own flesh and blood, and form various weapons at will. I saw this strange thing once, turned its hand into a gun, used its own bones as bullets, and shot dead We have several companions."

"However, it seems to have no hearing and vision. As long as you don't go out and hide, it will usually leave by itself after a while."

Tianyang couldn't help but said: "There are so many weird and dangerous things in this ancient underground city, and it's not far from Harvest Fort. Why did Harvest Fort leave it alone? Didn't you inform Harvest Fort?"

Shi Huo glanced at him and said, "Why not? Uncle and the others discovered such an ancient underground city when they established their settlement here. After being attacked by underground monsters, they have already reported it to Harvest Castle."

"But they believe that this ancient city has existed for hundreds of years, but monsters have never come out. Therefore, they believe that the ancient underground city is safe."

"Uncle Aliwang said that Harvest Fort probably didn't want to waste manpower and material resources in this ancient city. However, the Church of the God of Nature sends some personnel to station around the ground entrance all the year round, but since they were expelled, the security personnel have also withdrawn. dropped."

After Tianyang listened, he did not respond. He probably guessed that the reason why Harvest Fort refused to contribute was probably because he felt that investing a lot of resources to eliminate the monsters in the ancient city would not be of much benefit, and these monsters were only underground. Wander, never leave the ground, so just let it go.

"But there's one thing that's weird."

The stone fire stirred up the soup in the pot: "In the past, most of these things gathered on the surface and in the center of the city. Or they wandered between the floors close to the surface. There are actually not many monsters haunting other places."

"Otherwise, it would be impossible for us to explore this ancient city for so many years, but now, those monsters seem to be running away, I'm really worried that they will run all the way to the ground like this."

At the same time, it was on the stone edge where Tianyang and the others had just entered. Suddenly, at the edge of the stone edge, a gray, translucent hand suddenly protruded...
