[Ke Fei]Shanghai Knights

The public school in the night is more gloomy than in the daytime.The silvery moonlight pierces through the clouds and the corridor windows, casting pane-shaped shadows on the aisle, but more corners are hidden in the thick darkness, and the fear of the unknown is like a giant beast hiding in it, which makes people feel Stay away.

The sound of footsteps on the wooden floor echoed in the silent corridors of the school, and the monotonous rhythm of "pata, pata" added a sense of horror to the deserted school building.The white moonlight reflected the figure of a tall man. He was a man from the other side of the ocean. His light-colored hair was neatly combed behind his head. A pair of metal-framed glasses stood on the bridge of his nose. Men's upper class status.

The man is one of the staff of the public school.Why would he be wandering alone in the school building where no students were there for a long time?

With a "squeak", the man pushed open the door of the classroom at the end of the corridor on the first floor. When the wooden door closed, the public school returned to silence.

A moment later, at the corner of the corridor fork, the calm darkness suddenly moved, gradually revealing the silhouette of a young girl.Gu Xiaoman came out from the shadow of her hiding place. She was still wearing a fashionable cheongsam, she did not look like an illegal intruder who sneaked into the public school.The girl stopped in front of the reading room where the man disappeared, and the heels of her high heels stepped on the wooden floor of the corridor without making any sound.If you look closely, you can see a piece of yellow talisman paper stuck to the girl's chest that doesn't match her attire, and the cinnabar handwriting on the talisman paper seems to still glow slightly in the night.

Gu Xiaoman pushed open the door of the room that the man entered just now, it was a reading room.The cold moonlight poured into the house, and one could clearly see several long tables lined up in the center of the huge room, surrounded by a row of bookshelves against the walls, on which were placed all kinds of the latest newspapers and magazines.However, the arrangement of the reading room is good no matter what, what the girl cares about is that there is no one in the room.

There were no other exits from the classroom, and there was no sign of the windows being opened, so where did the man go?

The girl's slender eyebrows frowned slightly, but she didn't hesitate for too long, and just took out a folded paper crane with her backhand.She moved her lips and murmured a few complicated spells to the paper crane. The paper crane wobbled a few times in her palm, and then fluttered its wings like a living white crane towards the reading room. The deepest wall flew away.

Gu Xiaoman followed behind the paper crane, and the paper crane circled a few times somewhere on the wall and then fell to the ground, returning to its ordinary origami appearance.The girl leaned forward and groped carefully for the place pointed out by the paper crane. Sure enough, she found an invisible gap on the wall and felt air flow out of it.

In the next second, Gu Xiaoman held a piece of talisman paper between his fingers, and lightly pressed on the position where the secret door was located.

The secret door was opened silently, and a staircase leading to the underground appeared in front of Gu Xiaoman, and he didn't know where it led.Only the faint sound of footsteps coming from the depths of the stairs convinced her that this was the right way.

In the dark passage, Gu Xiaoman had no choice but to follow the footsteps coming from ahead and grope forward.After walking down a gentle corridor, there were stairs going down again. Gu Xiaoman felt that she had walked down the stairs of at least three floors, but the underground space of the school was deeper than she imagined.No, it's not just deep, she has encountered several forks along the way, if not for the guidance of the footsteps ahead, she would have been lost in this underground passage, who would dare to believe that in an ordinary public school There is such a complex underground structure.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, the girl finally saw a bright light shining from the end of the aisle.She quickened her pace slightly and the moment she took the last step, the girl found herself in a bright hall.The hall is surrounded by a circle of closed doors, which seem to connect different places. The bright lights pour down from the high ceiling, illuminating the hall as if it were daytime.Gu Xiaoman's eyes, which had long been used to the darkness, were stabbed, and physical tears welled up in her eyes, blurring her vision.

The girl blinked hard, and when the sore eyes were finally able to see again, what came into her eyes through the mist was a familiar face that the girl had been looking for for a long time.

"elder brother?"

The joy of reunion gradually mixed with hesitation and confusion as the words came out, and it turned into grief and disbelief at the moment when the girl saw the other party's pale face and scarlet eyes clearly.

The zombie with the face of the girl's elder brother rushed towards him instinctively, Gu Xiaoman dodged sideways, raised his head and glared at the height, "Did you turn my brother into a zombie?!"

In the corridor on the second floor of the hall, the man who was being followed by the girl stood quietly behind the railing. There was no panic on his face when he was called out, only a clear look on his face.He looked down at the zombie in the middle of the hall attacking the girl again, like a hunter who finally waited until the prey fell into a trap.

"elder brother!"

However, the girl's call was only exchanged for the non-human creature's screaming up to the sky. In the next second, the zombies without intelligence and consciousness, driven by instinct, attacked the girl.

"Blood! Give me blood!" The bloodthirsty instinct made the dead body approach Gu Xiaoman at an extremely fast speed.After a moment of shock, when the zombie's fangs were about to touch her skin, the girl quickly turned sideways, narrowly avoiding the zombie's full blow.Before the empty zombie turned around dully, the girl had pulled out several yellow talisman papers from the thigh straps.

"Brother, it's over."

After a flash of lightning and thunder, the bodies of the zombies in the hall slowly collapsed, and finally turned into ashes and dissipated between the sky and the earth.

The girl bit her lower lip tightly, her red eye sockets were covered with tears, she stared at the dust that used to be her brother without blinking, trembling all over as if she would fall to the ground at any moment.

"As expected of the exorcist family in Chinese legends, even relatives are merciless in the face of vampires." The man who had been watching the girl like a spectator said suddenly, "Sure enough, it was right to attract you here. The talisman paper is very interesting and will definitely bring our experiment closer to success."

The girl raised her head abruptly, blinked her eyes a few times, to keep the tears from shedding, and gritted her teeth tightly and said, "Is this why you killed my brother?"

However, the man did not answer the girl's question.A few faint sounds came from his ears, Gu Xiaoman retracted his gaze vigilantly, and turned his head to look around.At the same time, the doors around the hall suddenly opened, and a dozen men in uniforms with guns poured out from behind the open doors, surrounding the girl in the center.The expression on Gu Xiaoman’s face remained unchanged, and her hand was secretly reaching for the talisman in the strap on her leg—she saw the logo of the Freemasonry on the uniform of the visitors, maybe they were the Templars hiding in this era .She didn't think she had much chance of winning against such a group of well-trained knights, but...

"Okay, let's get straight to the point. Your spells are an essential element of our experiments. We need your power, so be our companion." The man on the second floor said again.

The girl was stunned for a moment, then let out a mocking snort mixed with anger, "Huh? Turned my brother into a zombie, how can you say such a thing?"

The man's face was still calm, and he answered righteously: "All this is for righteousness."

"Dayi?" Gu Xiaoman frowned.

"Don't you think the current chaotic situation in the world is very abnormal?" The man continued, the fanaticism that only fanatics can have gradually appeared on his usually calm face, "As long as the experiment is successful, we can get the absolute power that God bestows on us." power. Absolute power brings absolute order, and the war will soon be over."

The wrinkles between the girl's brows deepened, "After all, what is your so-called experiment?"

The man opened his mouth and was about to answer, but was preempted by another gorgeous male voice that was slightly contrived: "It is a taboo experiment that human beings should not violate."

Appearing with the voice was a slender man with long silver hair, with a playful smile on the corner of his mouth, walking leisurely into the hall.Beside the silver-haired man, there is another taller figure. He is dressed as a priest, but he has a good physique that ordinary priests don't have.The two people who suddenly appeared faced a group of armed Masonic members, like two tourists who had strayed into the battlefield, but they turned a blind eye to it, and even looked a bit leisurely, which was out of place and weird.

The man standing on the second floor also forgot his words for a moment, and asked a moment later: "Who are you? Why are you here?"

"Oh, isn't this going to the climax? It seems that we have come at the right time." The silver-haired man, that is, Ferid, seemed to have never heard of it. After looking around for a while with great interest, he chuckled and said to Gu Xiaoman , "Thank you for your hard work."

The girl seemed to be relieved by their arrival, she twitched the corner of her mouth and replied, "Use me as bait to attract attention, have you found what you want?"

"Well, thanks to you, the rest of this underground chamber is empty." Ferid said ambiguously, and then praised in an exaggerated tone, "But having said that, the buildings of the Templars The accomplishments are still amazing, if not for your seniors here, even I would be lost."

"You are indeed investigators sent by the headquarters." The man answered immediately after hearing the voice, his fingers clenched on the railing in front of him, revealing a bit of his mood, "Since the headquarters knows about the research we are doing, why should we Frustrating us? We're just following what we've been taught since time immemorial and bringing God's will to the whole world."

"Don't be silly, there is no God in this world at all." Crowley, who had been smiling all the time, said suddenly, and he sighed softly, "It's been so long, what humans can do is really amazing. Nothing has changed."

"You don't understand anything at all!" The man's face was flushed with anger, he swung his arm violently, and ordered the Freemasons in the middle of the hall, "Shoot! Kill them!"

"Oh, this judgment is not bad, but it's too slow." Ferid raised the corners of his mouth lazily.

"You guys! Get out of the way!"

Before the girl could cry out, dozens of guns fired bullets and headed towards Ferid and Crowley.Dense barrage intertwined in the air, like a dense net, making it impossible for people to escape the haze of death.If they were ordinary people, they must be dead.Unfortunately, they are not ordinary people.

Just when the bullet was about to hit the target, the two people who were standing there suddenly disappeared.When he came back to his senses, there were only pieces of blood flying in the air, but those blood did not belong to Ferid and Crowley, but the Freemasons who shot the bullets.

"Tick tock, tick tock", warm blood dripped continuously from the broken neck, a crimson ocean had accumulated on the floor of the hall, and the Masonic members who were standing before turned into miserable corpses in an instant. He fell to the ground in a pool of blood.Ferid glanced at the severed head that was still bleeding in his hand, and threw it away casually with a disgusted expression.The head drew a bright red arc in the air, fell to the ground, and rolled "gululu" in the slippery blood for several weeks and gradually stopped, revealing the terrified expression of the owner of the head before death.

Not only the men on the second floor, even Gu Xiaoman, who seemed to be companions with Ferid and the others just a second ago, also showed a look of astonishment.

"Who are you... strange, monster!" The man staggered back a few steps, finally let out a terrified roar, turned his head and ran towards the door behind him.

"Oh, where are you fleeing to?"

After chasing the leading man, Ferid and Crowley came to another room connected to the hall they were in. An ominous green light shone from behind the slightly opened door.The man stumbled and fell into the room, fell in front of a huge glass jar, and let out a strange laugh, "Hahaha, angels, no matter what monsters you are, you will be punished by the angels."
