Abyssal Kingdom

The road surface is flat, as if it is really a road paved by people for walking.

Wei An stepped on the path and walked into the door made of corpses. He didn't touch the membrane of the legendary "reachable but never touchable" space. It went smoothly, as if it was just a simple road.

He walked into what was supposed to be the void outside the window, and when he entered the previously invisible darkness, he found himself in a passage made of stone, which had an ancient and cold texture.

Wei An turned his head, the door disappeared, and behind him was the same long and dark corridor.

He never imagined that he would enter such a place.

Movies, TV series, games and novels have imagined the appearance of ancient civilization cities in various ways. Some are the same as the modern world, only distinguished by details;

Wei An looked around, but didn't see high-tech products, as if they came from an era without these.

The exit could be seen ahead, and the light was cloudy and dim, like a particularly gloomy day with low clouds above, making it difficult for sunlight to penetrate.

He walked on without looking back.

Then he went under the sky.

Wayne wasn't sure which fantasy he was seeing.

There is a huge square in front of you, as far as the eye can see, there is no end.

"Huge" doesn't describe it, even the largest square in the Federation is like a small table on the edge of a real square compared to this place.

It's so big that it completely crushes real buildings.On the edge of the square, there are three arched roofs that look like giant beast bones. Two of them have been damaged to the point where they are almost invisible. Only one stands alone, but its shape is still amazing. It is difficult for Wei An to imagine its function, and when everything is still intact. look.

He was standing on a higher ground at this time, and the city spread out in front of him like a huge corpse.

The whole world is gray, with fog pressing down on the cities, and visibility is poor.Wei An has never seen this kind of sky in the human world, it presents a chaotic gloomy, without wind, everything is dead.

There is a huge thing in the distance, I can't see it clearly, it may be a building or a hill... But it doesn't feel like it, it's just a chaotic shadow.

There are stairs not far away, Wei An walked over, the size is for humans.

He walked down, feeling like walking in a remnant painting that has been annihilated in history. He could only see a corner of the ruined wall, but he couldn't see the real face clearly.

The square is a bit like an arena, but the scale is too large to be, and there are no seats.From some details, it seems that the species that created these are the same species as human beings, except that there are differences in basic customs and lifestyles.

He noticed that there was a lot of dirt piled up next to the stairs, which seemed to be formed after the meat was severely spoiled and dried. It was not the corpse of a living thing. There were no bones or internal organs, and there were all corners of the city.

It seems that there is a lot of flesh and blood in the depths of the city. When the land dies, the flesh and blood are slowly drained from the sewers and piled up on the streets.

Wei An walked onto the main square.

The surrounding buildings looked quite normal, like factories or houses, and there were even dead plants.

He hadn't gone far before he saw a long crack beneath his feet, as if a huge sword had split the stone floor.The cracks were deep and extended out of sight, and large areas of buildings collapsed. These were not caused by modern guns, but more like wars in older times.

Wei An continued to move forward, the ground was empty, except for carrion, there were also occasional garbage that had been weathered to the point where we couldn't see what it was.

An ancient civilized car fell on the side of the road. There was some cargo dumped out of the car, but nothing could be seen. It looked like it had been plundered, and it was a completely dead place.

The sound of the horn came from the depths of the city.

Wei An stopped and walked in that direction.

Along the way, Wei An checked for traces of military activities in the human world, but he couldn't find them.

But as he continued to move forward, his headache became more serious, and the medicine could no longer suppress the things below him.

He was deaf in his left ear, and there were faint screams and noises from inside, including the sound of fingertips scratching the wall, as if things at the end of his hearing gathered in this direction, hit the wall, and scratched with sharp nails .

In addition, there is that electronic sound that keeps repeating, and it is never clear what is being said.

The things in Wei An's body haven't moved much for so many years, they only stir up in the dead of night or when he is in a particularly bad state.

The Ministry of Science asserted that he was an invalid experiment, that it would not really grow, and that the headache was just a rejection reaction.

But when the city rises, Wei An can feel the urgency of the disgusting organ in his head, there is something that must be obtained——

"It's okay," Wei An whispered, "It's okay..."

He continued to move forward, his palms were a little sweaty, he scanned his surroundings, but he couldn't see Guiling, there was a strange emptiness here.

He clenched the gun in his hand and wanted to call the man's name, but in the end he didn't.

There is something here that makes him feel uneasy, the surroundings are quiet, but Wei An is sure that there is something deep in the dead silence of the city that he would never want to know.

He thought to himself, holding the contract in his hand, when he came to the same place, Gui Ling should be able to feel him.

Wei An walked more and more into this city deep in space.

Everything here is different from the real world, there is another way of existence, but it is dead now.

He just walked on top of the huge corpse, and the noise at the end of his left ear was still there, making everything seem unreal, like being in an old-fashioned show with unclear broadcasts and many snowflakes, and he might jump to another program at any time. Go on a sinister never-before-seen channel.

There is some kind of faint power in front, something dark and heavy, Wei An can feel it, the fog has dispersed a little, and the smell of decay permeates the air and penetrates into the bones.

He took a few more steps, then stopped, staring wide-eyed ahead.

It was the hill-like shadow he saw before, and he thought it might be a large garbage dump, mountain or building...

Not really.

On the square lies a huge head, more than 40 meters high.

It seems to be a female, it should be amazingly beautiful when it is alive, but at this time the long golden hair has been completely decayed and dull, like a weathered foil in a garbage dump, lying in this endless gray fog, dead without a trace of light.The eyes of the skull were hollow and weathered, forming something like a black cave.

One-third of the head was cut off, forming a large horrible black wound. Blood clots and hair were mixed together, and there might be brains, garbage, etc., mixed together in a mess.

It has been in this ancient square sunken into the depths of space for thousands of years, crazy and desolate.

If it was once like a god, then this is the corpse of a god, a half-headed garbage mountain.

At this moment, the shriveled lips moved unnaturally, Wei An stared at it, and then...something crawled out of it.

It is difficult for normal human beings to describe how disgusting that thing is. After all, it does not exist in this world. It is like a bug in a garbage dump, gray and white, filthy and corrupt. It has human-like limbs, but it crawls on all fours. .

It has only half a head, no brain or eyes, only a mouth with fangs.

Wei An stared blankly, everything here was too supernatural, it felt like in a dream.

The thing jumped up and rushed towards Wei An.

Wei An dodged it, it rushed towards his face, he smelled a smell of smoke and fire.

It fell to the ground and turned around again.

Wei An stared at the angle and trajectory of its movement. Even though he had no sense of reality, he was still familiar with attacks and battles from the bottom of his heart. His expression was calm and cold. When it pounced to the highest point, he raised his hand and shot.

A shot hit the target. This was a large-caliber musket. Even with a silencer installed, it still had amazing firepower. The monster fell obliquely to the ground due to the impact.

It was still struggling, Wei An walked over and shot it in the head again.

It stopped still, it was completely dead now, Wei An stared at the corpse for three seconds before lowering his head to take a closer look.This thing is really human-like. The shape of the head seems to have been operated on. The brain, eyes, ears and nose have been removed, and the stitched opening can even be seen.

Most of it was beaten to pieces, and it can be seen that its body...is not the flesh and blood of living things.

It looked like bones and flesh that had been burnt through and turned into ashes. There were still sparks in the core, which glowed sinisterly, and then went out.

It's impossible for any living thing to do this, it's the stuff of hell.

Wei An knelt down on one knee in front of it to check the details.

Then he noticed a faint smear of fluorescent paint on the monster's belly, dulled by fire and weathering, but there it was.

Fluorescent pigments are widely used, such as marker pens, live-action field games, banknote marks, etc. In addition, reminder marks on roads and vehicles are also used. Just look at the traces themselves, Wei An will make Judging, this is where someone painted a fluorescent sign, and the paint rubbed on it when it was not dry.

It's been a while, but the thing is so stubborn it's still visible.

Wei An stood up, thinking about what this meant.

He thought of several possibilities, but it was difficult to determine which direction it came from...

Wei An suddenly shook, a sharp pain came from deep in his head, and the things inside twitched violently.

He fell to the ground, the pain was so great that his mind went blank for an instant, this was a completely unfamiliar pain, it was too huge, enough to destroy any human body and will in a blink of an eye.

He didn't even utter a moan, he lost his voice completely.

Out of the corner of his vision, he saw another monster crawling towards him that seemed to come from hell, but he couldn't do anything.

Pain swept over everything, the horn was still sounding, low and urgent, it was an urgency permeated with the smell of blood.

In a trance in agony and dying, Wei An saw that thing in his mind.

It was the first time that he could see so clearly... the wreckage in the body that should have died and never developed. It was an unimaginable thing in nothingness, it was outside the universe of common sense, and it was conceived by a crazy brain hysteria.

In the misty void, there stood a gray flesh-like thing, which was extremely mutilated, bloody, without intelligence, with deformed, pain and malice that could never be perfected.

He heard the electronic sound that had been repeated for many years, but never clearly.

This time he heard it, and it kept saying: the deep domain system is offline—the deep domain system is offline——

The deep domain system is offline.

Wei An knew he was facing a dead end.

He doesn't understand ancient technology, but at this moment he is very sure that he can't live for 3 minutes. The body collapse caused by the organs of ancient civilization is a very fast thing.

He has seen this kind of death many times, in the contract sacrifices in Qingshi Province, in the cases related to ancient civilizations before, and in the depths of the experimental area he saw when he was a child, there were all those crazy people. It's hard to tell if it's just the stuff of nightmares.

It is said that people will recall life before death, but Wei An's mind is blank, and finally only a thin memory from long ago emerges vaguely.

It's like a sleazy moment in a story, that pointless thing in life that no one wants to hear and it's useless...

He remembered that he was not a friend of "Mr. Qin".

It was a man named Pu Lan, who lived in the same orphanage as him, and later entered the same experimental group.

It was a childhood companion with a vague shadow. He was 17 years old when he died. He was so thin that he looked like he was only five or six years old.His skin was chalky, his hair was nearly gone, and what remained was long and dirty metallic gray.

Pu Lan was the last one to die in the whole group. Wei An went there to find some evidence. At that time, he thought that he could make some people pay the price.

But in the end he couldn't do anything, and couldn't go on with the investigation.

Whenever it comes to ancient civilizations, some bloody and crazy things in this society are almost legal. These tortures of the weak are endorsed by the entire country's system. The rules are secretive and gray, but they are interlocking.Although there are opposing forces and regulations, these things still grow stubbornly like mold within human society.

He is a senior agent of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and an important son of the Qin family. When he is placed in this position, he can only belong here.

At the last moment of his life, Wei An's childhood companion stared at him, with a strange sense of hunger in his eyes, something ancient grew in that person's body, peeping into the world from his eyes.

When he died, he seemed to be starving to death. This is how this group of experimental subjects died. Their energy and flesh and blood were eaten by unknown things.

Wei An thought, he always knew he would do the same.Everyone was dead by then, and he had no reason to be an exception.

Out of the corner of his last eye, the monster crawled aside, and he could smell decaying smoke and fire from it.

He took his retirement seriously, he built a house, he laid out his garden... TV, books and what so many people promised, the unfettered, comfortable, fulfilled life one should live...

He thought for a long time, went to plan and build...

But he can't get it, he doesn't deserve it.

An injection was stuck in Wei An's neck.

His body was in extreme pain and wear and tear, but at this moment, the severe pain subsided.

The pain of the gray flesh in the deepest part of the mind became smooth, the damaged and painful end was soothed and perfected, and full strength was injected into it.Like water congealing into ice crystals, a strange substance congealed in steady fashion in the void, trying to frame what was in his head.

Although it was a fragment of the ghost of ancient civilization technology made by those in the Ministry of Science, a mass of minced meat with only viciousness and desire to devour, the frame was still clear, tearing away the pain of confusion and bringing temporary peace.

It took a while before Wei An came back to his senses, and found that he had been curled up and lying on the ground, exhausted and weak, his fingertips were numb.

He raised his head and saw Gui Ling, who was kneeling in front of him on one knee, wearing the jacket he had carefully selected, still as handsome as when he had just dressed him up.

Gui Ling held a syringe gun in his hand.

Federal injection gun, the newest model.
