The Sinful Blood Witch in Another World
Chapter 41 Blood Lake
The sunset shines through the gaps in the leaves, casting mottled light and shadows, as if covering the forest with a layer of golden gauze.
The silhouettes of the trees appeared and disappeared in the light and shadow, like an ink painting, and the dewdrops on the grass were also reflected and sparkled like sparkling gems.
The carriage shuttled through the forest, and the horses' hooves stepped powerfully on the dirt road, as if they were walking on a golden road.
Shihui looked at the scenery outside through the car window. Her beautiful face reflected the light makeup of dusk, making her look even more beautiful and charming. Annie also put her little head closer. Such a deep red sunset was very rare.
But what attracted Shihui's attention more than the fiery clouds were the figures in the forest. They moved stiffly and kept wandering in the forest.
A group of zombie villagers wandered aimlessly, their bodies in tatters, and the smell of corruption filled the air.
These zombies include men, women, young and old. Their faces are distorted and their eyes are empty, as if they have lost their souls.
Their bodies revealed rotten muscles and bones, or heads. Some were even missing arms and legs and could only crawl on the ground. Their bodies were completely rotten.
For a moment, Shihui even wondered if he had come to The Walking Dead, otherwise how could there be so many zombies.
We encountered no less than hundreds of zombies along the way, probably over a thousand, and they were wandering aimlessly in the forest.
When they heard the sound of the carriage, they followed in groups. Fortunately, they moved slowly and could not catch up with the carriage at all. After following for a distance, they were left far behind.
"These people are so pitiful, sister. How could they become like this? Can we save them?"
Anne sat on Shihui's lap and asked her sadly, her little face wrinkled with some grievance.
It was hard for Anne not to sympathize with these people who came from the same background as herself, not to mention that there were children of her age among the zombies.
But these zombies didn't stir any emotions for Shi Hui. It was more like watching an extra. She sighed and explained:
"They are no longer human, Anne. We can't save them. Maybe we will end up like them, becoming monsters wandering the forest after we die."
“The only thing we can do is to avoid becoming man-eating monsters ourselves, so that we can help others…”
Annie shook her head repeatedly after hearing what Lime said.
"No, no, Annie, don't let that happen. If you do that, Annie will be killed by the weird uncle and won't be able to eat delicious food anymore!"
Rather than being killed as a monster, Annie was obviously more worried that she would never be able to eat delicious food again. How would she eat delicious food in the future? Those crispy cookies and sweet milk would be gone from her.
The two chatted with each other in the carriage, and soon the carriage slowed down.
Olena's voice came from outside the car: "Ms. Hilde, please come down and take a look... The situation seems a little serious..."
Hearing the other person's voice, Shihui frowned slightly, pushed open the car door and walked out, and was greeted by the stench of a long-rotten corpse.
There was no forest to be seen outside the car, only a large open space, but all around it were large piles of dead bodies.
Some of them were soldiers, some were villagers, and some were wealthy businessmen in gorgeous clothes. Each of them had been eaten beyond recognition, with their internal organs dug out and scattered all over the ground.
The iron sword in the soldier's hand had been broken, the armor on his chest had been torn open, and all his internal organs had been hollowed out.
Oleina suppressed the stench and continued, "That's not all. The only bridge across the lake has been blown up. We can't even get across now."
Shihui pinched her nose and fanned away the stench with her hands. Looking around, she saw no less than hundreds of corpses. She stepped over the corpses and walked towards the lake in front.
The huge lake was actually blood red at this moment, and there was billowing black smoke in the city built in the center of the lake. The city walls were covered with protective nets, and many dark shadows could be vaguely seen walking on them.
There were a large number of spears erected on the city walls, with a large number of corpses hanging on them. They all had only the upper body, with huge bat wings hanging behind them.
However, the bridge connecting the two banks was blown apart in the middle. It was estimated that the broken part was ten meters long, making it impossible for a carriage to pass through.
"Gulu gulu~~"
The blood-red lake water was inwardly swirling with a large number of bubbles. Several huge green-shelled crayfish nearly two meters long emerged from the water, their tails flapping the waves as they swam quickly into the distance. Chasing behind them seemed to be a huge catfish five meters long.
"boom!"
The catfish leaped out of the water, creating a huge wave of blood. It bit a crayfish quickly and accurately, then dived into the water and disappeared without a trace.
"..."
Shihui rubbed her eyes in disbelief, her beautiful face full of disbelief, and she even suspected that she had not slept well and was hallucinating.
"Those things are crayfish, right? Crayfish that are longer than a human?"
"There's a giant catfish in the water with a crayfish in its mouth???"
Just thinking about the scene just now made Shihui feel a stomachache. If he accidentally fell into the lake, a large number of aquatic creatures would swarm in and he would definitely be killed.
No wonder the lake is blood red. It turns out that the creatures in it have completely mutated. I just don’t know whether the lake water is dyed red by blood or caused by some other reason.
"Ms. Hilde...how...are we going to get through here..."
At this time, Oleina was completely scared. She thought this would be the last safe place, but who would have thought that she would encounter such a thing that would lower her sanity before she even entered.
Shihui looked carefully at the damaged bridge and found that the distance was not particularly far. If he used Apparition, it would probably not consume much of his life.
If they abandoned the carriage and went forward with the three of them, the two good horses would definitely be eaten by the zombies behind them.
"It's okay. Let's ride the carriage to the broken bridge and I'll use magic to teleport us over."
"Okay Miss Hilde!"
The two immediately returned to the carriage. Oulaina drove the carriage over the large number of corpses on the ground and slowly walked towards the broken bridge. Shihui sat next to her, ready to cast magic at any time.
The bridge had been blown up. If the carriage was too heavy and caused the bridge to collapse, the three sisters would definitely die. Thinking of this, Ou Lei slowed down the horse even more, almost letting it move at a walking pace.
The wheels creaked as they passed over the wooden bridge, making Oulena's heart tremble.
When the carriage was approaching the edge of the broken bridge, the two horses stopped. No matter how Oleina swung the reins, the two horses did not move at all, and even retreated slightly behind her.
"Are you afraid of the creatures in the river?"
Shihui gently patted Olena's hand and said, "Alright, there's no need to let them move forward. I'm afraid they've already sensed the danger. It doesn't matter where they teleport from."
"Apparate!"
