Endless Debt

Gray tide haze.

A strange phenomenon unique to Oath City Opos, it originates from the periodic eruption of fog in the Great Rift. At that time, the rising fog will break through the boundaries of the air cover and cover the surrounding area of ​​the Great Rift.

In the past, this abnormal phenomenon could be notified in advance so that citizens could avoid it, but today it broke out too suddenly and too violently.

"The above is about the current impact of gray tide haze. Please listeners to protect yourselves."

After broadcasting the last sentence, Dudel walked out of the studio exhausted physically and mentally, and walked to the window anxiously.

Several minutes have passed since the gray tide smog suddenly erupted. This time the gray tide smog erupted very quickly. The surrounding urban areas of the Great Rift have been completely submerged in black dust, and this wave is still spreading towards the periphery. The momentum shows no signs of slowing down, and it doesn't look like it will be long before it completely envelops the city.

"It's like the end of the world..."

The staff on the side looked at the outside world and let out numb exclamations.

This can no longer be described as haze. It is more like a trapped sandstorm. The sky becomes dark, and the wind and sand roar, kicking up dust all over the street.

The terrifying smog swallowed up every street, including alleys and street corners where people quickly fled. Birds on the street flew in panic, and the tires on the bottom of the vehicles scraped against the ground harshly, rolling past like rolling stones, with successive impacts. The sound sounded, and the sound of whistles came and went.

Even thick windows could not block the strong wind and sand. People covered their mouths and noses and ran away in all directions, with uncontrollable fear in their nervous and tired eyes. The trees in the green belt were not spared, being blown away by the stormy sand. Swallowed by dust, it becomes increasingly blurry, as if wandering in the dunes.

Dudel could no longer see such a terrifying scene soon. The sky had completely darkened, and he could not see his fingers. It was clearly daytime, but it felt like night.

Someone was shouting something on the side. As soon as Dudel looked at the other person, the haze was mixed with sand and dust, mixed with a fatal shock wave, and hit the building.

The glass shattered in an instant, and the broken debris cut Dudel's cheek, and he and others were knocked to the ground by the shock wave.

Gray mist poured into the room along the broken part of the window, filling the corridor in an instant. The moist and heavy air was filled with a strong smell of dust. Dudel coughed painfully, and there was severe pain all over his body.

He breathed hard, but the air seemed to be mixed with some kind of poisonous substance, and soon there was a burning pain in his nose and respiratory tract.

Dudel rolled in pain, tears squeezed out of the corners of his eyes. More screams came from the whistling sand and dust. The pedestrians on the road seemed like ghosts lost in this gray world. They also coughed in pain and were beaten. Gas grill.

The sound of engines slowly approached, and in the absolutely dark streets, out-of-control vehicles collided with each other. People could only hear the roaring sound, but could not see anything. They could only silently pray that they would not be hit.

A few seconds later, explosions resounded in the streets, firelight loomed in the darkness, and the wails became clearer, blending into the wind.

Dudel crawled back to the broadcasting studio. He closed the door to the wind with difficulty, blocking the fog and sand from the door. He sat down panting.

Disasters like this are not the only one, they are happening everywhere in this city, in every place engulfed by smog.

Afia barely withstood the strong wind and struggled to move the flowerpots placed outside back indoors, one trip after another.

"Aafia, leave those flowers alone!"

The old woman stretched out her hand to hold Afiya, and she motioned Afiya to look into the distance. At the end of the street, the sea of ​​fog was advancing rapidly like an upwelling tide.

One figure after another was swallowed up by the rolling tide of fog, as if caught by a nightmare. From the fog, there were blasts of whistles and crashes, as well as people's mournful shouts.

The wave of mist was about to advance to the flower shop. Afia hesitated and moved a few more pots of flowers indoors. When she could no longer save any of them, she reluctantly hid back in the flower shop and pushed hard Close the door and lock it securely.

A few seconds later, the fog wave hit the door panel and hammered the glass window. It was like an earthquake. The entire flower shop shook several times. Then all the light disappeared, leaving only absolute darkness.

Afia was afraid in her heart. After living in Opos for so long, she had encountered gray tide smog, but this was the first time she encountered such a violent fog tide.

A crisp sound came from above the head, and then the sound became more and more intensive. Afia noticed that under the impact of the fog tide, the glass windows were now covered with cracks.

Afia's heart was in suspense. She had already seen the horror of the mist tide. Once it poured into the flower shop, it would have a devastating blow to these fragile flowers.

Fortunately, the collapse did not happen, which made Afia relieved. But the next second, a series of knocking sounds were heard, and in the infinite darkness outside the window, palms suddenly appeared one after another, and they slapped on the glass. , the next second frightened faces poked out of the darkness, close to the window, their faces were distorted, their eyes were filled with fear and they were roaring.

Afia immediately walked towards the door and was about to open it, when the old woman stopped her.

"Are you sure?" the old woman asked in a low voice, "We can't even take care of ourselves."

Afia was stunned.

The sea of ​​fog rolled in all directions. Looking down at the whole city from the observation tower, I saw that the clouds had completely turned dark, like a thick barrier, completely covering every urban area. After a while, , it will spread to the whole city.

After Ivan glanced down, he returned to the room with a solemn expression. At this moment, the alarm in the room kept sounding, all the staff were mobilized, and emergency broadcasts were sounded one after another.

A staff member approached Ivan, and Ivan immediately asked, "Can I contact them?"

"No, we have detected that the fog tide contains a large amount of the plague of decay," the staff explained. "The diffuse plague of decay has swallowed the ether and blocked the connection."

"It sounds like a big crack is expanding outward." Ivan whispered.

"Then based on calculations, we can infer..."

The clerk's voice suddenly dropped, and he didn't know whether to continue speaking.

"Say, at this time, there is nothing to hide." Ivan said.

"According to calculations, a concentrated plague of decay bomb should have been detonated in the Great Rift. After expansion, it can be diluted by the vast space, but at the core of the explosion, within the Great Rift, the narrow and closed Within the space..."

Ivan paused and said, "Do you think they are all dead?"

The staff member didn't finish his sentence, "I'm not sure, but according to the data, they in the core area of ​​the explosion will face the impact of a high concentration of the decaying epidemic."

Ivan felt great pressure and had a headache.

"The people we dispatched for this operation are all elites. Even if they are faced with the impact of high-concentration plague of decay, they are protected by ether and will not die so easily."

Ivan could only believe this.

After the clerk finished his report, he became busy again. Ivan turned away from the deserted corridor and walked a few steps. He cursed under his breath and banged the wall.

For this operation, the elites of the action team participated in the transaction, and other action teams surrounded the Great Rift. Now it was like a trap, and the main force was directly hit by the plague of decay.

How did the King's Shield Guard do it? Ivan couldn't think clearly.

Although the plague of decay is terrifying, it is extremely difficult to release, but they actually used the gray tide haze as a carrier to spread this terrible gas throughout the city.

The King's Shield Guard is almost withstanding the influence of the plague of decay, and then controlling a terrible weather.

"Tyrant... damn tyrant."

Ivan knew who could do this, and he was certain that there must be a tyrant behind this eruption of gray tide haze.

"Damn it! Damn it!"

Ivan hit the wall hard one after another, blood oozing from his fists.

Now that the plague of decay has blocked contact, no one knows what happened inside the Great Rift. Not only the action team of the Bureau of Order, but also the King's Secret Sword have also lost their traces.

A heavy fog obscured everyone's vision, and no one knew what was lurking under the dark fog.

…

Like a great cleansing, the rising fog mixed with the plague of decay washed away all materials along the way like strong acid. Rocks collapsed, buildings collapsed, and people who had not yet escaped in time on the hesitating forked roads were transformed by the erosion of the fog. They turned into corpses that quickly decayed and eventually turned into dust.

In the surging fog, the fourth seat hid in a bunker on one side. He supported the ether protection and protected the other King's Secret Swords, struggling to hold on in the roaring sea of ​​fog.

What puzzled him was that the spreading plague of decay was much weaker than he thought. Although it would cause some damage, it was still enough to be resisted by him.

It's like someone took over most of the damage, and now only a very small part has spread.

"First seat..."

The fourth seat murmured that he was aware of the secret actions of the first seat. On the surface, he was just feinting. The first seat would silently take off the Shadow King's head, and after that... it would be another conspiracy. .

But now the outbreak of the Decay Epidemic has disrupted all this. The King's Secret Sword has its own secret operations, and the King's Shield Guard also has a foreboding trap.

A trap using the Shadow King as bait to seduce the number one.

"I have to leave."

The fourth seat said to the others. They looked at each other, nodded, and said it didn't matter. The current concentration of the plague of decay has not reached fatality. It will burn the skin at most. The real place of death is the foggy abyss in front. The ruins of the fortress.

A high concentration of the plague of decay filled that cruel ruin, which was the real place of death, and now the fourth seat was going to die in person.

The concentration of the plague of decay in the surroundings began to increase, and the ether and the invisible things consumed each other, making a hissing sound.

The fourth seat stopped, and the thick fog obscured his vision. Even if he was a defender, his visual distance was only a few meters now, but he could feel the ether fluctuations coming from behind the sea of ​​fog, the blur And a ferocious figure.

In the ruins, the flesh and blood monster struggled. His body was constantly twisting. Without the protection of skin, his flesh and blood were directly exposed, fully contacting with the plague of decay.

He was writhing in pain, with wounds all over his body and blood and pus flowing. Every groan and wailing was accompanied by a creepy smell that made people afraid to come close.

The fourth seat’s eyes were stiff.

I saw that the monster's arms were constantly twisting, and the cells and muscles were gradually being destroyed and collapsed. The body was constantly shrinking and twisting, and it was emitting a deafening scream, as if it was trying to tear the surrounding air into pieces.

Soon after, the creepy sound of chewing began.

He casually dug out a corpse from the rubble, bit off its head, and pulled out the spinal cord. While eating sickly, his throat was still screaming, and a burst of energy burst out from the twitching of his limbs. The power of stocks.

Soon, he devoured the corpse, rummaging through the ruins hungrily, biting off heads one after another. While he was eating, his twisted body also began to heal itself at a high speed.

Blessing and healing from bloodthirsty.

The cruel blessing from that lady has now become the source of his rapid recovery of strength.

The fourth seat has never seen such a monster.

The painful moans sounded again, and his body was in unbearable pain, as if it had been cut ruthlessly by thousands of knives. Every muscle and every inch of skin was twitching, and blood flowed out, covering his body.

The fourth seat member saw an almost broken armor among the haemoma tumors growing wantonly... That was the armor of the first seat member.

The fourth seat felt that his breathing had stopped.

I saw more and more flesh and blood, and the monster could hardly support its own weight. Its body kept twisting and rolling, tangled like a tangle, and its limbs kept fluttering, trying to grab something to support itself, but in the end Still can only crawl on the ground.

His teeth were clenched.

"The...first seat?"

As if by some strange coincidence, the fourth seat called out that name.

The monster suddenly raised its bloody head. He saw the fourth seat and heard a strange creaking laughter.

"Seat 4? You came at the right time."

Hearing the weird sound, the fourth seat couldn't help but take a step back, and a terrible sense of crisis exploded in his heart.

He has heard such rumors. Some people say that there is some kind of monster in the Pillar of King Power. Today, the King of Terror has many secret swords of the king controlled by him. After learning about the existence of the monster, Red Dog also changed into a monster. He went crazy... The fourth seat never believed this rumor. He only regarded it as a rumor that the enemy wanted to affect internal unity.

That's not a rumor.

The flesh and blood monster's back muscles continued to expand, as if it was about to explode, and its internal organs were squeezed by the flesh and blood, as if it was about to be slapped flat. His moans became louder and more harsh, and there was a biting despair and fear in his voice, which seemed to tell the world: I have reached the extreme point of pain.

The Plague of Decay, a man-made alchemical gas, is listed as one of the extraordinary disasters due to its unimaginable lethality.

The First Seat has absorbed most of the impact of the Epidemic of Decline. It can be said that he is like a filter, minimizing the impact of the Epidemic of Decline. Otherwise, such a high concentration of the Epidemic of Decline would take away the Great Rift at the moment of its outbreak. All lives within.

This is not because the first seat has great dedication, but because it was designed by the Shadow King and the Tyrant.

"Asshole!"

The first seat cursed hoarsely. Under the influence of the devil's power, the plague of decay washed over the first seat's body like a torrent. Even the glorious ones could not survive under the superimposed power.

No matter how much he gnaws on the corpses buried under the ruins, his body's self-healing and destruction cycle is still going on.

"Good thing you're here...the fourth seat."

The pain and fear did not sink the first seat. With great will and perseverance, he stood up staggeringly. His flesh and blood grew and then decayed again. His swollen arms held up a badly damaged skull scythe. .

By the time the fourth seat realized something was wrong, it was too late.

Sao Feng passed over his body, and his entire arm was cut off and raised.

"Such an ugly appearance cannot be allowed to be seen by others."

A bloodthirsty voice sounded from behind him, and before he could turn his head, he bit the fourth seat's neck with a big mouth, easily tearing off large chunks of flesh.

The heart-stopping sound of chewing continued.

The fourth seat immediately launched a counterattack, the wound began to etherify, the alchemy matrix lit up, and at the same time, the ether reaction that surpassed the fourth seat rose.

The power of the dying, the mad, the glorious.

Under the threat of extreme death, the battle did not last long.

The fourth person fell to the ground, looking up desperately. The sound of chewing came from his lower body. After the extreme pain, his mind had become numb.

Even the etheric body could not avoid being swallowed by the monster. He sucked his own blood and poured the pure ether into his throat.

Weird whispers sounded among the bloodthirsty.

"Great lady, I offer you fresh flesh and blood."

The monster muttered to itself as it gnawed at the fourth seat's body, eating him alive and clean.

Not even the bones were left behind.

As the defender's flesh and blood was swallowed into his belly, the crazily growing flesh and blood gradually offset the impact of the plague of decay on him, and his crazy hunger was satisfied bit by bit.

After swallowing the last mouthful of flesh and blood, a great sense of satisfaction rose from the stomach of the first table, but what followed was endless hunger.

A glutton is never full.

The first Xi picked up the scythe in embarrassment. After dealing with the injuries on his body, the spreading ether offset the high concentration of decaying plague around him.

Eyes swept across the ruins, looking for the body of the Shadow King. When the plague of decay exploded, both of them directly suffered the fatal extraordinary disaster.

The First Seat knew that the Shadow King would definitely die, but even if he died, he would find his body and eat it alive.

Only in this way can the hatred in the heart of the first seat be satisfied, and only with more flesh and blood can the lady be pleased. Only in this way can the next actions of the first seat go smoothly.

"Bring Xilin's body back to me."

The words of the King of Terror rang in his ears.

"This will be about the survival of the empire."

The first person endured the heartbreaking pain in his body and swung down the scarred scythe, smashing the ground.
