Seeing Erdi's expression, Leon felt that his teeth were itchy and wanted to hit someone.

"Cough! To be honest, I have only been in this world for more than a year, maybe less than a year, right? It was last autumn when I came here. However, I seem to retain the memory of last time , It’s just that most of them are common sense and experience, the rest are rather vague, and can only be remembered intermittently, and even the language is recently learned.”

"That is to say, you were caught by Fernan just after you came to this world?"

Leon spread his hands: "I was too clumsy at that time."

Eldi: "I haven't asked you yet, how did you 'handle' Fernand?"

Leon's left eye suddenly squeezed out of his eye socket with a "boo", the eyeball hanging next to Leon's nose twisted twice, and a big eye fell into Leon's palm: " It's his left eye, and some bone marrow and brain tissue, which is very useful."

This big eye is cute... In fact, it is not very cute.It is a mass of flesh that looks red, with a pair of very small feet growing underneath, and an eyeball on top of it.The eyeballs are normal, but the eyeballs are beautiful when they are in Leon's eye sockets, but they are gloomy when they are bulging balls outside the eye sockets.

Eldi stretched out his hands wearing iron gloves, and put the big-eyed cute hands together in his palms - if he closed his hands in that movement, there would be only a ball of meat sauce left: "Why put it in yours? In the eye socket?"

"He can see the soul, and I can also see the soul with his eyes."

Only then did Eldy laugh: "The abilities of the Chretien family are necromantic. Others can also see the soul. Next time, they will use other people's eyes."

"Okay." It's not a strong kid who owns the valley, but Leon is quite satisfied with Eldy's monopoly.

They had a pleasant chat, and Maurifio dragged Miss Hilbert out of the basement.Although the air in the basement is not dangerous, it is not very good after all. Miss Hilbert emotionally destroyed the notes, drawings and models in it. Now that the destruction is over, she feels dizzy.

After being dragged up, he lay on the ground outside and gasped violently for a long time before he came back to life.

"I'm going to the mountains." These were the first words Miss Hilbert said when she got up.

It's nearly three o'clock now, and even though there are two moons in the sky, the natural light from above is still a bit dark. Without other light sources, ordinary people's eyesight can't see very far.But since she insisted, the three awakened ones who became more and more curious were also willing to go together.

When they reached the front of the mountain, there was no need for two warriors to expend their energy with their swords. The stones naturally floated up and piled up neatly on one side.

It seems that there are many stones blocking the entrance of the cave, but in fact there are not many. This is because there is a big stone with a height of two people blocking the gate. After this stone is removed, the metal gate is still intact.Leon, Eldi, and Morifio looked at each other. They didn't know if there was an explosion inside, but it was obvious that the stones outside did come from above the entrance of the cave.

Miss Hilbert... didn't seem surprised by the situation.

"Miss Hilbert, what you said earlier was that there was an explosion inside, so that the laboratory in this mountain was completely abandoned. But now it seems that is not the case." The stone moved away, Leon The door was left untouched.

Miss Hilbert was wiping her sweat, but her breathing was still not very steady. Leon's question made her look up in confusion: "Why not?"

"Where have you ever seen an explosion door that was fine, but the rock outside the door collapsed?" Morifio looked at her.

Only then did Miss Hilbert stare at the door with wide eyes, but she trembled as soon as she glanced at it, and couldn't help hiding behind Morifio: "I don't know... I only I heard the explosion... I..." She knelt down, hugged herself, trembling even more, "Father...Mother..."

Morifio took off the iron gloves, touched her forehead, and frowned, it seemed that she had a fever.He called his deer over, took out the potion from a small pocket, squatted down, squeezed Miss Hilbert's chin not too gently, and poured the potion into it.Miss Hilbert was also confused, she drank the potion and still shivered with her head down, until Morifio covered the back of her head with a hand that shone with green light.

Miss Hilbert's trembling gradually stopped, and her breathing calmed down. She raised her head and stood up: "I, I was a little uncomfortable just now." She took a few steps back and carefully looked at the gap above the cave. She frowned and fell into the memory of the past, "I really don't know. I heard a loud noise that day, and everyone was looking this way When I came here, I only saw smoke and dust rising all over the sky. Someone hugged me and told me that the inside had completely collapsed, and my parents were inside..."

She looked at Maurifio, then at Leon and Eldi: "If the part in the mountain is okay, does it mean that my parents...may be okay too?"

"There is such a possibility. But it is only possible that they were fine back then, but if the research institute has abundant food reserves, it is also possible that they can survive until now."

"Really? That's great." Miss Hilbert said, but her tone was too weak. Even if she was sick, she shouldn't be like this when she heard that her relatives might survive. , "Can we go in? I'm going to go in and have a look, even if they are dead, I want to see their bodies!"

"Do you want to continue?" Morifio looked at Leon and Eldi. When he put the potion bottle back on the deer, he quickly took out a morning glory and stuffed it back—meaning he had notified Did you join the church?

"Go on," Eldy said, and Leon nodded.

"Then I'll open the door." How Morifio cut the cave door just now is how he cut the door of the basement. Even though the door is much thicker than the door of the basement, it's just that he used more bright swords.After Morifio finished cutting, he stretched out his hand and pushed, and the door just cut was pushed open—the thickness of this door is at least two feet, so the part cut by Morifio did not fall backwards , but kept upright firmly, and now pushes it directly into the door.

A gust of wind blew out from the door, bringing out a smell.

"What kind of research did your parents engage in? What is there?" Morifio, who cut out the door himself, couldn't help but ask, "Doors, in most cases, are used to prevent things from outside. into the house. But in the suburbs of Diller City, this kind of door can only be used to prevent things inside from coming out."

"Of course it's a dangerous thing! Those machines! Those demons!" Miss Hilbert said seriously, no matter whether her idea is true or not, it seems that there is no way to find the answer from her.

Eldy poked Leon quietly: "What is it?"

"Uh... a surprise."

This answer made Eldi grip the little sword in his hand even more tightly. After hearing Leon describe what he ate, Eldi didn't quite trust Leon's taste (Leon: ...).What he said was surprise, maybe fright is more appropriate?

Morifeo stuck the little lamp on the shield again, and when Eldy was about to do the same thing, he was stopped by Morifeo: "The light in the dark can show us the way, but it can also more danger."

Eldi put back his own small lamp tube. Although Leon followed him, his ability was not yet fearless: "It's not a life-threatening situation, so don't make a move." Go Before going through the little door, Eldy said.

"Ok."

Morifio went in first, and Miss Hilbert should follow him, but the darkness there was different from the darkness under the moonlight, it was completely devoid of light, just like the legendary hell.Miss Hilbert took a step forward and then backed away: "This, this time, don't you need someone to guard outside?"

"Are you going to stay outside?" Eldy asked.

"No, no."

"My deer will stay outside. If there is an accident, it will immediately go to the church in the city for help. Moreover, the air inside is very clean after the basement is opened, and there is no great danger after smelling it. But here...you Don’t you smell that stench? There’s something rotting inside, and there’s also the smell of fresh excrement.” Morifio also withdrew from the inside, “Besides, the situation here obviously doesn’t match what you described. It's time for us to come together."

"Okay, of course!" Miss Hilbert's voice was a little loud, as if to encourage herself.

This time the four of them really walked into the door, and Morifio stood at the entrance of the cave for a while: "Come in, be careful with your feet, there is a hole, don't twist it." Then he stepped out of the cave.Four people entered the door one after another, and the smell became more obvious when they got inside. Moreover, there was indeed a hole near the door, which was not shallow. "I won't turn around. Take a look at what's in the door."

Eldi took out his small lamp tube, and looked at his feet first: "Here...it seems to have been dug by someone, next to the door."

The pit was about as wide as a forearm, but very deep, and it could be seen from the pit that the iron door was still thick metal when it went down.Leon squatted down, scratched the soil in the pit twice, and pulled out two broken nails with dried blood: "Human."

"He, they are still alive?!" Looking at the two nails, Miss Hilbert sat down on the ground, "Alive, alive..."

She trembled more violently than the previous few times, as if the bones of her whole body were fighting. The "click" sound made by the collision of her teeth or the collision of bones made people shudder, but her eyes She just stared at the two nails, as if there was a rope connecting her eyeballs to the nails.

Trembling and trembling, her eyes began to roll upwards, and white foam overflowed from her mouth!

"I'll take the position." Eldi stuck the small lamp on his small shield and stood beside Morifio.Morifio turned around immediately, reciting prayers, and put his hand on Miss Hilbert's forehead.

Leon squatted beside him, resting his head on his hands, like an ordinary child watching the fun.

Eldy looked around with the light of a small lamp. This is an empty hall with nothing. On the other side of the hall, you can see a corridor. On both sides of the corridor, you can vaguely see dark doors. is the layout of the office.But his small lamp can't reach the end of the corridor, so I don't know if there is any difference here.

The light is facing downwards, and people's messy footprints can be clearly seen on the dirt. They were left five years ago?Or has someone been walking around for the past five years?

At this time, Morifio stood next to Eldi again: "Whether you want to continue walking, you can discuss it at the end."

Eldy turned around again, and of course Miss Hilbert had calmed down. Leon motioned to Eldy to let him watch the gate.The gate... On the door inside, about the height of a normal person's chest, there are white finger and claw marks, bloody finger and claw marks, bloody fist marks from punching with fists, and bloody palm marks from slapping with palms...

Eldi looked at the hole at the door: Why are there so many people knocking on the door, but not many people digging the hole?Moreover, the pit dug is too shallow compared to the desire to be saved.

But soon he figured it out for himself. Those who were locked in were all insiders. They knew what was going on with the door, and they didn't want to smash the door open, but hoped that the sound could be heard. , let the people outside hear.As for the person who dug the hole, it was just knowing that it was impossible under despair, and hoping for a chance, but the person who dug the hole soon gave up on his own.

Eldy turned the shield, and the small lamp illuminated the entire gate. He looked at Miss Hilbert: "How many people were missing at that time?"

This gate is about ten meters wide. Now, the ten meters wide are densely packed with traces like this. In addition to the size of palms and fists, it cannot be made by one or two people. At that time, they struggled in the gate There must be seven or eight people, only more, not less.

"I don't know, all I know is that my parents disappeared and then I went to my parents' funeral and I was so sad I didn't have time to think about it."

"Didn't you say that you checked these things? You don't even know how many people disappeared at that time? Where did you check and who did you check?"

"It's a private detective... His name is Morendi Naris. But many people involved in this matter are no longer working in the Second Academy. He checked for a long time, and only found out that this place is haunted." Xi Miss Albot's tone was very light, without any ups and downs, and her face was pale. She looked more like a dead soul now.

Leon and Eldi looked at each other. Even if this matter is investigated by them, it is impossible to only find out a rumor that they don't know whether it is true or not, right?The young lady is either lying, or has been completely deceived.No wonder she suddenly jumped out to hire two children - although she had seen many people coming and going, she had never really seen Leon's ability after all, this behavior was still too whimsical.

And the death of Miss Hilbert's parents back then was [-] percent sure that there was something else hidden. Otherwise, the little girl who had been trying to find out the truth about her parents' death would now be "Ah! I didn't even know that my parents were still alive." Alive?! Mom and Dad, where are you?" This kind of appearance, rather than being frightened into epilepsy...

"Do you want to leave?" Leon asked.

"No, I'm going to continue to see what's inside." Miss Hilbert wiped her face. She wanted to wipe off the sweat on her face, but her hands were already dirty, so she wiped a piece of it. Dirty black face, but no one cares at this time.

See what's inside, not whether your parents are dead or alive...

"Are your parents really here?" Eldy asked.

"Of course! They are! They must be!"

"..." But your tone is more like talking about an enemy.Leon couldn't help thinking about the matter in the direction of Jerome Village. Could it be that her parents also hurt her?But it feels like that shouldn't be the case.

In short, after the team of four lingered at the door for more than ten minutes, they finally started to move forward.Walking through the hall and walking into the corridor, the offices on both sides of the corridor not only have no doors, but even the door frames are gone-this place and the hall are actually a big hole connected together, but a small room is built out of bricks and stones.

There is nothing in the room, it is clean.

"Let me use it." Leon patted Aldi suddenly, took off the spare sword hanging on his back, walked into the room, did not go too close, just three steps, and then he took Holding the sword without taking off the scabbard, he dug the soil on the ground. The soil on the ground was very loose. Although Leon used inappropriate tools, he dug out the buried thing below—the human skull within a few strokes.

The skull still has a scalp and short brown hair. It looks like it should belong to a man. After digging out, the rotten smell became stronger several times, but the strange thing is that there is no flesh at all on the face of the skull. Only the white bones remained.

Move the skeleton to the side, revealing the same white human bones underneath, and these human bones are even more strange——for a person who died normally, the bones should be placed in the shape of a human, right?But now this pile of bones is piled up in one pile.

"Is this man mutilated?" Eldy asked, holding up his shield to illuminate Leon.

"More than that." Leon grabbed a big bone, it should be a thigh bone, very thick, "There are tooth marks on it, a lot of tooth marks."

As for the teeth marks... the three men, big or small, remained calm.Miss Hilbert covered her mouth and stifled the scream, but this time she did not vomit or twitch.I don't know if she is getting used to it gradually, or if cannibalism is not a big deal for her.

"I just saw a living shadow, but it was too fast." When Leon continued to dig bones with his sword, Morifio said suddenly, "It may still be alive, but it lives underground all year round, devouring people, even if Five years ago, it was still a human, and five years later, it is already a ghoul, so pay attention to each other."

Morifio's words are not a description, ghoul, the literal meaning of this world language, is: a person who devours human beings and mutates.Ghouls are a common monster on the ground, especially in big cities, at least three or two appear every year.

Those ghost sightings or monster sightings, other than misreporting, those events that have something, they are probably them.Because the formation of ghouls is very easy, first, as humans but chronic cannibals.Second, always live in a dark environment without seeing the sun.Third, there is no ray of light in my heart as a human being.

The slums are an excellent breeding ground for such things, and this cave is also a good place.Moreover, ghouls have high upper and lower limits of ability. Maybe an adult farmer can stab it to death with a dung fork, or... it can tear a fourth-order awakened person with its hands.

"Let's keep going." Leon stood up. "I dug up a skull, but I found five kneecaps." He looked at Miss Hilbert, who turned away when she saw the skeleton go.

In this corridor, there are eight rooms on the left and right sides, the rooms are large and small, the first room on the left and the first room on the right are both simple small rooms, and they found human skeletons in them.The back rooms became suites, but these rooms were still empty.Only in the third room on the left, they saw traces of humans except the walls-the cesspit.

This room has a large area, and there is a cesspit at intervals on one side.One of them was filled with fresh feces and smelled strongly of urine.

"Those human bones are all from a few years ago. What are the things that live here now? What do they eat?" Only when they come in can they come out. After five years, even if hundreds of people were trapped here, after a year or so, the Ghouls may still have food, five years... even if ghouls really starve to death.Eldy seems to be asking Morifio, but actually looking at Leon - what is this surprise of yours?

"I don't know either. Some human beings can always do things beyond the imagination of their kind." Morifio sighed, and let's continue walking.

In the rest of the room, they couldn't find anything.The corridor ahead, turning a corner...

This is a long and thin corridor, and only one person is allowed to go forward, not a fat person.Morifeo was very slender as a half-elf, but he was wearing armor, so it was inconvenient for him to walk here. His skirt and shoulder armor would scrape against the wall after two steps, and he ignored it afterwards. , nor dodge.

All the way they walked, they heard the creaking sound of Morifio's armor scraping against the wall, and the rustling sound of the wall dust falling down.

"We're going down." Morifio said suddenly, "and it's turning. This road is very interesting."

Normal people can't feel that this road is curved at all, they just feel that they are walking on a long and narrow road ahead.
