Siren Blade

Chapter 58 Girl
If I had just been acquitted, I would have faced Saber Tooth's vengeance with a calm attitude, and surrendered my life calmly.But at this time, it is difficult for me to do this.Recalling the warm story that the blue bird stood in the sun and told me that day, I felt that death was such a cold thing.And in the past, how many people have I sent to the other side of the cold?
If he just surrendered his life like this, Jade Bird would definitely be very sad.From this point of view, it may also be a selfish choice to die aloofly.But is it not selfish to miss the warmth of the blue bird and refuse to pay for his life?

It would be nice if Saber Tooth was an evil avenger like old bones, then I would be able to fight back justifiably, and even find some angles to condemn him... How could there be such shameless expectations in my heart .

The team moved slowly and quietly through the thick fog, and sometimes some survivors exchanged a few words in a low voice.I have seen some traces of experience from them, and they seem to be very accustomed to following the pace of Saber Tooth, and can feel a team integrity that is strictly at the core of Saber Tooth.Even though it was only the second day that Bairi Town was shrouded by the fog demon, they seemed to have adapted to the status quo.

"It has been more than a week, and there is still no sign of rescue from the outside world. Have we been abandoned? Or is it that the outside world has also fallen?" Someone said in a low voice, "When will this kind of day end... "

more than a week?Does it appear to them that more than a week has passed?

Their sense of time is obviously very different from that of Joan and me.Moreover, Saber Tooth didn't seem to have explained the Mist Demon to them.Is it because you are worried that too many people will have a targeted understanding of the Mist Demon, which will strengthen the Mist Demon?That makes sense.It's as if people's fear of ghost stories sometimes forms spiritual fluctuations and concentrates, turning false ghost stories into real hidden things.If too many people are aware of the existence of the Mist Demon and become afraid, then they will also become a new source of power for the Mist Demon.

However, Saber Tooth didn't seem to explain the truth about the Fog Demon, and even the issue of time flow was not explained to them.But judging from their communication, they feel more consistent with each other about time, which shows that Saber Tooth has not done work in this area at all.Could it be that it's me and Joan who have a problem with time?

I am also very concerned about the issue of external assistance. No matter whether it is a day or a week, the Security Bureau should take action, but now there is no such sign at all.Is it because the Security Bureau cannot enter Bairi Town, which is blocked by dense fog?Or is it that to the outside world, the time has only passed for a very short time?
Also, how did Saber Tooth find so many survivors in the dense fog... I was about to fully communicate with Saber Tooth on these issues, at this moment, I suddenly felt a voice coming from the depths of the dense fog Lots of malicious swings.

Then, the low growls of many demons also came over, and dangerous noises approached quickly from a distance.

For some reason, Saber Tooth seemed a little dull, and his perception didn't seem to be working properly. He didn't react until he heard the sound, and then his face became extremely gloomy. "Sure enough, there are so many people, it's easy to attract demons..."

There are already several strange-looking demons attacking from the dense fog.The survivors panicked one after another, but they seemed to have done simple training, and they didn't scatter like wild animals, but immediately gathered at the wall by the roadside.

This intentional dense formation should be for the convenience of Saber Teeth to protect them and prevent them from getting lost in the dense fog.But Joan hadn't received guidance in this regard. When he saw other people moving, he seemed to have misunderstood. He found a nearby bunker and hid alone. After hiding, he seemed to realize that he had done something wrong.

I simply dragged him out, let him climb on my back, and then went to help deal with the demons rushing out from all directions.

The sabre-tooth is also driving the body and swinging the sword, cutting into the enemy group like a huge arrow shot by a ballista, causing bloody storms in a blink of an eye.He seems to be a warlock who focuses on high-speed melee combat, and his skill is no less than the hunter I fought with before.However, although this fighting method is more than enough to protect himself in the dense fog, it is not suitable for escorting so many people. It is no wonder that he accepts my help with humiliation.

Before he had time to take a closer look at his fighting style, his figure was hidden in the thick fog, only the sound of continuous slashing could be heard.I concentrate on killing those demons.After a while, the battle was over.There were no more roars or slashing sounds from the depths of the dense fog.

I got Joan off my back and we went to join the team.

However, an accident happened.

Or rather, it's something that's happened before, but it's just happening again.

We did not rediscover Saber and the survivors in the fog.Those people just disappeared, as if they were swallowed by the thick fog.Just like a passerby who disappeared into the depths of the thick fog yesterday.

I am not without foreseeing this, but I have not mastered the method of overcoming this phenomenon in such a chaotic situation just now.

"Disappeared?" Joan said in amazement, "Why...won't you just leave us and leave?"

"No...it's definitely not that." I tried to check the traces on the ground, but found nothing. "It's probably the problem of the dense fog itself. This dense fog probably has the property of causing people to disperse."

That's why we always have trouble finding other survivors.But how did Saber Tooth find so many survivors?Is it just by chance and fate?surely not.He claims to have the experience of fighting the demon of fog, and he should have mastered some methods that I don't know.

He seemed to be using his methods only to continue with the survivors, not to me and Joanne.

Or is it because he doesn't want to be with me on purpose?But he has already decided to cooperate with me. It is always lack of convincing to say that he has given up halfway.

Is the method related to the sense of time?The time of Saber Tooth and the Survivors seems to be in sync.In a different space, the chances of encountering people with a very different sense of time will be reduced.But I suspect the answer is not that simple.

There is no way to find someone.Joan and I had no choice but to return to a team of two, groping forward in the thick fog.
-
The day will soon come to an end.

Right now it is supposed to be night.But looking at the thick fog that hasn't darkened at all, I still can't feel the feeling of nightfall in my heart.It's hard to keep time from going on like this.We are currently relying on the biological clock, but the biological clock is also difficult to trust in a different space.

And just when we found a small supermarket and planned to spend the night here, another accident happened.

We meet two survivors.

To be precise, two survivors with ulterior motives.

Both were men in their prime of life, and both looked rather distressed and dirty, with disheveled clothes.It was after we entered the small supermarket, probably because we wanted to come here to collect supplies.Although the outside world is very dangerous, if you always stay indoors, you will run out of food sooner or later.Although they didn't seem to have any ferocious expressions on their faces, there was a vortex of despair and madness in their eyes, and they seemed to have become mentally disturbed under the extreme environment.

They saw us as soon as they entered the supermarket. One of them took a quick glance at Joan behind me, exchanged glances with the other, then looked at me together, and then walked over.

I am very sensitive to emotions such as malicious hostility, and I can see the evil intentions of the two at a glance.

Joan tugged on my clothes, and he was indeed sensitive to the danger.Back then, even the middleman was spying on him secretly, he would have been aware of it, not to mention the ulterior motives of these two people in front of him.

"It's okay." I said to him first, then looked at the two of them, "Stop."

"We have no malicious intentions." The two stopped, and one of them smirked and made a comforting gesture, "We are just here to collect supplies. You are too? Do you want to join us too?"

"Do you have anyone else?" I asked.

"Yes, yes." He said with a smile, "We are helping other survivors... No, it should be said that we are helping each other. It has become like this, shouldn't the survivors work together? "

"Our hiding place is very close to here, do you want to come and see?" Another person chimed in, "You two are students, right? How dangerous, it's better to stick with us. There are still a few people over there, you The kid next to me can help with housework, and you'll go out with us to collect supplies... how about that?"

Joan was uneasy, "Li Duo..."

He obviously didn't want to go, these two people are undoubtedly black, and the malice in my heart can't be hidden under the perception of Joan and me.I also don't believe they are actually helping other survivors.

However, I thought of something else.Whether it was the eye contact just now or the rhetoric at the moment, they seemed quite skilled. It seemed that this was not the first time that they had "invited" other survivors.So, what is the situation of "how many people are there" in their mouths?Is it their accomplice?Or……

"Okay, let's go take a look." I said.

"Huh?" Joan was stunned.

"I think their attitude is so sincere that they don't look like bad people. And they are right, this is when we should work together." I said, "They can't trick you and me into killing and eating Well, what good is that?"

"Hahaha, that's that. We're not some perverted killers, we're all just hard-working people struggling to survive in this shitty world." They also laughed.

Qiao An was speechless, and glanced at them with inexplicable eyes, and then stopped talking.

Sure enough, once back in hiding, they bared their vicious fangs.

At least one thing they didn't lie about was that their hideout was really close to the supermarket.It is extremely dangerous to move long distances in this kind of dense fog, and they would not dare to go further away to collect supplies.Thanks to the fact that the distance was short enough, there was no demon attack when moving over.

In order to prevent them from disappearing suddenly, I followed closely and kept a close eye on them.

The hiding place was an old single-family house. After entering, one of them quietly locked the front door.

The other person picked up a hammer from the shoe cabinet and walked behind me silently.

Unfortunately, even if I approach from behind, I can still feel it.Moreover, since the fog in the room is relatively thin, my awareness is almost unobstructed, enough to scan everywhere.So I also saw "a few more people" as they said.

Those people are not their accomplices, but victims.They were all young women, five of them in all, gathered in a room somewhere upstairs.They all suffered horrific insults and injuries, and even describing it in words felt like their tongues were about to be stained with feces, so we omit the details and only mentioned the results: four of them had no breathing or heartbeat, and one had Dead, but also dying.

The moment I realized this information, I couldn't help but feel a great deal of anger, and reflexively laughed at myself how I was qualified to be angry.And the man with the hammer aimed at the back of my head from behind and slammed it down without sparing any effort.

Then, the hammer flew out whirling.I didn't get hit by me, I didn't have any defensive actions, and I didn't need to defend.The hammer couldn't do any damage to the back of my head, but it was thrown out due to the reaction force, and made a small hole in the door behind.

I turned around without saying a word.In the next moment, the limbs of the two men were simultaneously fractured.They fell to the ground bathed in their screams.

The man who sneaked up on me said with tearing eyes, "You... what did you do..."

Nothing special either, just smashing their bones at a fast pace.But in the eyes of people with insufficient dynamic vision, it seems that they have seriously injured themselves when I stood still and did nothing.

I was not obliged to explain anything to them, I just dragged them all the way upstairs to the room and threw them on the ground.

Joan also followed silently.Although his awareness is probably stronger than mine, it seems that he is not skilled enough to know how to use awareness to scan space.Looking back, the reason why I was able to grasp the knack so quickly in my dreams in the past is probably due to unconscious experience.After witnessing the scene in the room, Joan finally saw what they were doing, and was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

"Why did you do this?" I asked, "Although you were all lying just now, the truth itself is correct. Just because it is this kind of time, shouldn't we all work together?"

"Work together? At a time like this?" Seemingly desperate, none of them begged for mercy, and simply said in pain, "At least two months have passed, and there is still no sign of the outside world coming to rescue us... Let's discuss It’s over, although I don’t know what’s going on with this thick fog, but the outside world must have fallen. Anyway, everything is over, and we will die sooner or later, so it’s better to have a good time at the end! Women who didn’t dare to play before, Now you can play whatever you want!"

Joan's eyes widened in surprise, and he read in a low voice, "Two months..."

It turned out that at least two months had passed on their side.

Although the different space cannot be understood by common sense, the influence of this thick fog on the sense of time is still beyond my estimation.It's no wonder that they feel such chaotic emotions from them. They have long been immersed in the fantasy of the end of the world, and they are self-righteous and crazy.

"So what are you doing to us? We're all men," I said.

"Huh? Is she a man?" He looked at Joan behind me in astonishment.

Joan seemed to make her voice hoarse on purpose, and said viciously, "I don't look like a woman!"

"Why didn't you say earlier..." The man was dumbfounded.

I skirted them and made my way to the only surviving woman in the room who was dying.

It's more like a girl than a woman, and she doesn't look much older than Joan.She lay naked on the ground, covered in sores, with nauseating filth all over her body, and even her face was brutally scratched.I don't know how much those two people did to her.

Fortunately, before departure, Jade Bird not only remade three anti-charm amulets for me, but also stuffed me with a lot of healing talismans.These talisman papers are quite convenient to use, and they only need to be pasted on the body surface to heal the trauma.Although when I got it, I thought that I would regenerate super fast and these runes would be completely useless, but now I am glad I didn't throw them at home.

I pasted the talisman papers on the girl's body one after another. Under the magical effect of spiritual power, the wounds on the girl's body healed at a very slow speed.Then, I took a sheet from the side and covered her body.

Ten minutes later, she woke up.
