Siren Blade

Chapter 138
When we entered the mirage, what we saw was like a wasteland movie.

The buildings in the city are full of signs of destruction, the streets are full of deteriorating and dried black blood and the remains of human bones that have long since rotted, and a large number of abandoned and destroyed vehicles are randomly placed on the road.It seems that a horrific massacre of unimaginable scale has taken place in the city. Just seeing this extremely messy scene can somewhat figure out the tip of the iceberg when the nightmare happened.I started to imagine based on the various traces of the scene and my previous encounters.

When the nightmare happened, there must be something horrible that people can't understand appearing in front of them.Those things should only appear in horror movies, or just in the weird delusions that inadvertently surfaced when walking at night, but now they appear majestically in the streets under the sun, roaring, biting, and devouring people recklessly flesh and blood.

There must be many of those things, and each end cannot be resisted by manpower.People panicked and tried to flee from the nightmare, and there was screaming in the streets, blood, stampedes, despair, death, and maybe something ugly and dark.Some people even panicked and drove into a shop on the side of the road. The wreckage of the vehicle and the shop are silently telling the scene.

It's not just this street.We slowly went deeper into the mirage, no matter where we moved, we saw the same scenes with minor differences.The whole city was reduced to a ghost town, and I felt no life at all, only death and silence, and the pervasive mist.

Amidst the boundless, suffocating shock of the night ocean, I came to this conclusion: the mirage was destroyed.Destroyed by this fog, by the many demons in the fog.

How could this be possible.I really want to contradict myself.Because, even if it is a genuine one, the Demon of Fog in its heyday can only cover and destroy a small town, and this is a city.It's not one-dimensional at all.

"Here, is this really a mirage?" Xiaojing asked, unable to accept the reality.

"It seems that an extremely large number of demons appeared in the mirage, and carried out a large number of killings... It is not that similar incidents have occurred in history, but I thought this kind of thing would only happen in war-torn countries , or it happened in the data a long time ago..." Joe Licorice said in shock, looking at his compass and the street ahead again and again.

From just now, her guidance on the direction of progress has become less smooth, as if she has encountered some obstacles.

Then, she seemed to find something wrong, "Is there something wrong with these wreckage?"

"Judging from the decay of the corpse and traces of blood, it should have been about half a year since the incident happened." I also noticed this problem.

"The Mirage was destroyed half a year ago?" Xiaojing was stunned, "How is it possible? Before I set off, I checked on the Internet whether there were any new and interesting places in the Mirage in recent years, and I also saw some local people. What about the video uploaded yesterday. Wait, could it be that..."

She probably thought of a possibility based on some fantasy stories she had read before, "Could it be that this is not a real mirage? In fact, it is a place shaped by this fog, like some kind of illusion, and the real Is the mirage not destroyed?"

"It's impossible to deny this possibility." I gave mixed comments on this optimistic idea, because I still have another not-so-good idea in my heart.

She boldly approached the big blue pickup truck on the side of the road, as if wondering if it was real.But at this moment, a demon in a black metal armor jumped onto the roof from the other side of the truck, and then attacked her.And at the moment when the devil was about to cut off her head, the knife gang I shot in smashed her into pieces in the air.

Everything happened in a blink of an eye. She looked at the demon remains on the ground, and after two seconds of indolence, she uttered a terrified cry, and then hurried back to my side.Immediately afterwards, two other demons as big as cows came around from both sides of the truck and attacked us, but I followed suit and killed them on the spot.

When we walked through the thick fog before, we only encountered one demon, but here we encountered three demons at the same time.Even though the fog had thinned, there were more demons.

I asked Joe Licorice: "The fog here has become very thin, will it have any negative impact on our next activities?"

"The influence has become very low. This place is clearly deep in the fog, but the fog is so thin." She glanced at her compass, "Since we entered the city, time and space are not as easy to be confused as before. Even if Even Xiaojing should not get lost here."

"The fog in the city is light, but it is so thick outside the city. That is to say, the function of this fog is probably to prevent the people inside from escaping. Even if this is not the only function, at least it has this purpose. If the people inside escape When we get to the periphery, we will immediately get lost, and we can no longer recognize normal time and space.” I said, “So, can it be understood in this way? The massacre was launched. However, because we were in the periphery of time chaos at that time, and the flow of time in the city was inconsistent, when we came, the time in the city had already passed for half a year."

She thought for a moment, then nodded, "That makes sense."

Although it was my own conjecture first, I still picked a bone, "However, regardless of Xiaojing, the time between me and you should not be chaotic, why are there so many staggers from the city?"

"When we judge whether our sense of time is chaotic, we use the time of the outside world as the benchmark, and if we use the time in the city as the benchmark, then our sense of time is relatively chaotic. After all, we have never been in the city before. , how do you know the time in the city?" She said, "This is still a mild phenomenon. Because your awareness and I are relatively high, and you haven't completely fallen into the situation where you can't tell the time, so it's only half a year apart. If Xiao Jing didn't follow us, but went into the city by himself, maybe he would fall into a strange time period."

"Ah?" Xiaojing was dumbfounded.

"What are you going to do next? I am your entourage, and I will accompany you wherever you say you want to go." Qiao Gancao stared at me.

"Can you continue to figure out where the clues to get out of the fog are now?" I asked.

She shook her head, "I can't do it anymore. The person who arranged this fog is very powerful. I can only know that the clue is in the mirage, but I don't know where it is in the mirage."

While looking at the empty ruined streets, I weighed it in my heart.The scale of this incident is far beyond what I can handle.I really wanted to contact Lie Que, the outside security bureau, but I couldn't get the signal out.

But speaking of the Security Bureau, what happened to the Mirage Security Bureau?What role did they play in this catastrophe?Ordinary citizens in the mirage are powerless to resist the disaster, but the warlocks of the Security Bureau always have a way.Perhaps somewhere in the mirage, there are still many warlocks from the Security Bureau who are making some efforts, and even sheltered a certain number of survivors.

We are still in the dark.To be on the safe side, I want to join forces with the security forces first and get more information and help from them.

I voiced my opinion, and Joe Licorice agreed.

Just one problem, I don't know where Mirage Security is going.Although I have known the address, but now the mobile phone cannot connect to the Internet, and the map software cannot be used.Even if you show me the map, I can't see it, and now I don't even have a map.Fortunately, Qiao Licao has more methods than me. She found a map of the city in the car on the side of the road.After seeing this scene, I realized that although this is the era of electronic maps, there are still many drivers who put paper maps in their cars.My common sense of life in this area is still relatively lacking, and I have to rely on her in some places.

Soon, she locked the location of the Security Bureau on the map.We start moving.

On the way, some demons attacked us again.And the deeper they went into the city, the higher the frequency of demon attacks. They even encountered five or six waves of attacks in a row on the same street.Although there are also reasons why we don't pay much attention to concealment, this level of danger has far exceeded the scope of allowing ordinary people to move outside.

If I were a survivor who avoided death by hiding at home in the early days of the disaster, I would not be able to sneak outside to collect survival supplies under such harsh conditions.Moreover, demons are also aware, and ordinary people's concealment is simply useless.It would be fine if you held your breath and hid in a fixed place, but running outside was completely suicidal.That is to say, people like Joan who are born with keen perception can bypass the edge of the devil's perception.

All the demons who attacked were killed by me, and Xiao Jing was no longer startled, and got used to my protection again like when he was in the ruins.

An hour later, we arrived at Mirage Security.

However, the result was disappointing. There was no one in the Mirage Security Bureau, and there were signs of destruction everywhere.Not only that, the degree of destruction here is even more thorough, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it has been bombed by missiles.Most of the building has collapsed, and the rest of the places that can be entered are also covered with rubble. There are corpses in the uniform of the Security Bureau lying on the ground, too many to count, as if they have experienced extremely intense massacre.

The Phantom Security Bureau is all gone.

I can't help thinking about it, though I can't tell if there are any other displaced survivors.The stronghold has been so destroyed, and the casualties of the members have been so heavy that even if a few people survive, they will definitely not be able to perform their due functions as a city's security bureau.I never tried to imagine that the security bureau in a city would become like this.

I suppressed the shock in my heart and looked around carefully.Judging from these traces of destruction, although I really don't want to admit it, it seems that there is only one person who destroyed the Mirage Security Bureau.

Yes, someone single-handedly destroyed the security bureau here.

This is no longer something that the main force can do.

Although the Mirage Security Bureau lost its only main force level "Ju Zhong" a week before the outside time, but under the premise of complete preparations, there are still ways to repel other main force levels.Back then, Saber Tooth gathered other law enforcement warlocks from Tianhe City Security Bureau to repel Yuchi.And even if they were caught off guard by other main-level warlocks, as a city's security bureau, they would not have been slaughtered in such a one-sided manner.After all, the security bureaus in various places have plans for various situations, and such things as "suddenly being attacked by a foreign main force" are part of regular exercises.

But what if the attacker is not the main force, but the super main force?
I thought of biting blood, maybe the attacker was her—when I looked at the traces of destruction with this presupposition, I suddenly had a different feeling in my heart.Although these traces of destruction are so violent, completely different from the exquisite and delicate bloodbiting in my impression, I still have an unexplained awareness, which makes me inexplicably believe that these are the "claw marks" left by bloodbiting.

At this time, I saw a strange male corpse next to a broken wall.

The corpse was not decomposed, and fell to the ground as if it had just died, with two fatal penetrating wounds to the temple and heart.I checked a little bit.From this corpse, I caught some faint spirituality.It seems that there is some kind of spell set on it, but it doesn't feel dangerous.

Qiao Gancao also came to check it, and then said hesitantly: "This seems to be... necromancy? This corpse has a triggered necromancy?"

As soon as Xiao Jing heard the word "necromancy", he seemed to think of something bad, "Will this corpse suddenly jump up and bite?"

To be honest, that was my first reaction too.

"No, it's not that kind of necromancy." Joe Licorice shook his head and continued to check, "Let me see what the trigger condition is..."

I asked curiously, "Do you even know necromancy?"

Knowing how to explore knowledge in different dimensions and necromancy, this psychoanalyst is too versatile.

"That's not the case. I haven't studied necromancy. But this necromancy is deliberately set up to be easy for people to understand, and he set it up for himself before he died. It probably wants to convey some information." " Qiao Gancao said while taking out his work certificate, "The trigger condition should be the spirituality of the work certificate of the Security Bureau, I will try it."

Like a sticker for a zombie, she pasted her work ID on the corpse's forehead.

Two seconds later, the corpse took off his work ID from his forehead and sat up from the floor.

"You must be warlocks from the Security Bureau. Are you here to investigate the reason for the destruction of the Mirage Security Bureau? I am a member of the investigation team at the headquarters. Sorry, I did the necromancy that I set for myself in a hurry before I died, so Can only give very limited answers." The corpse said, "If you have any questions, please ask them quickly."
