Chapter 729 Reunion

Zhang Heng's two shots had a certain effect, at least slowing down the progress of the two monsters. They were obviously a little uncomfortable after losing their commander. Although they were still rushing here, they couldn't help but slow down. Slowed down a bit.

This is also human nature. Although they are monsters, they are not completely mindless zombies. I saw how Zhang Heng killed them before, and there were also the deaths of sacrifices and the farmers lying on the roadside who were shot in the legs and kept wailing. , there will be some scruples in my heart.

As for the person led by the third priest, Zhang Heng was not too worried because they were far away.

After hitting the target, he put the rifle back into his backpack and quickly left the two farmhouses.

Zhang Heng did not immediately go to join Fabricot, but walked around half a circle to confirm that he had got rid of all the monsters behind him, and then turned around and moved toward where Fabricot was.

After such a period of time, Zhang Heng didn't know where Fabricot had gone. He didn't even know if Fabricot had been caught. If the latter was really so negligent, there was nothing he could do. After all, he has done everything he can.

Zhang Heng could only grope along the agreed direction. At the same time, he also noticed that the monsters behind him did not give up the search, but now the two sides were farther away, and the swamp was also very wide.

Even with the manpower of those monsters, it is difficult to search them in a short time. In addition, Zhang Heng consciously led them in another direction. As long as he is careful, he still has a lot of time to move around.

So I finally had time to listen to the young traveler's personal account of what he had witnessed in the past half day. Of course, the premise was that Zhang Heng had to find Fabricot first.

In addition, Zhang Heng also took this opportunity to check the necklace he picked up halfway. He had not had time to take a closer look because he was busy fighting, but he found that its material was a bit strange. It was definitely made from the same golden crown worn by the sacrifices. should be made of the same material, but the workmanship of the latter looks more complicated and refined.

In comparison, this necklace is much simpler. Although there are reliefs on it, they are just some very abstract symbols. Among them, Zhang Heng can probably barely identify only water (or life), the ocean, and fish. Other than that, The necklace brings a cold feeling when it is close to the skin.

If it were summer, it would probably be quite comfortable to wear. Of course, like its owner, this necklace also exudes an indescribable evil and weirdness, like a rattlesnake hiding under a stone slab.

Zhang Heng confirmed that he could no longer read any information from it, so he stuffed it into the backpack behind him and continued to look for Fabricot.

The dilapidated spire of the church stands in the darkness in the distance, while on the other hand is the huge shadow of the breakwater, with some vague figures standing on it. At first, Zhang Heng thought they were tiptoeing there looking for him and Fabry. There were traces of Kurt, but after looking at it for a while, I found that it didn't seem like this.

They seemed to have their backs to Zhang Heng and were facing the direction of the sea, or to be more precise, the black reef. They were looking forward to something unknown. At the same time, Zhang Heng noticed the wind mixed in from the sea. The disgusting smell became even stronger. At first, Zhang Heng even mistakenly thought that another enemy was approaching, but then he realized that it was the wind itself.

Zhang Heng had a premonition that something else would happen at the Black Reef, and this incident seemed to be related to him.

However, the top priority is to find Fabricot first and find out what happened in the town before deciding on the next step.

Zhang Hengfu lowered his body and tried his best to hide himself behind the weeds while paying attention to the movements coming from all directions. He spent about an hour turning on his pocket flashlight from time to time, trying to identify the signs left on the soil. Footprints. When Zhang Heng went downstairs for dinner with the young traveler, he deliberately walked through some muddy roads. From above, he could see the shoe prints left by Fabricot.

In the end, Zhang Heng relied on this shoe print to find the young traveler. Fabricot was hiding beside a section of abandoned railway tracks. When Zhang Heng first saw him, he thought he had died.

Because his body was motionless, he looked like a corpse.

But when Zhang Heng came closer, he found that Fabricot's breathing was still steady. He had just fainted from fright.

Zhang Heng shook his body, waking up Fabricot from his nightmare.

When the latter opened his eyes, he almost screamed out subconsciously. Fortunately, Zhang Heng moved quickly enough and covered his mouth before he made a sound.

When he saw the appearance of the person in front of him clearly, Fabricot was surprised and happy, "Are you back?"

"Well, why are you sleeping here?" Zhang Heng asked, "And you also deviated from the route we agreed on before."

"After we separated, I kept running in the direction you told me at first, but then I encountered a group of monsters. In order to avoid them, I had to change my route slightly. I originally wanted to go back, but then I encountered a group of monsters again. When we arrived at another group of monsters, I had to temporarily hide in the railway tunnel, but what I didn’t expect was that they actually jumped over my head one after another.”

As if recalling the horrific scene again, Fabricot said with a look of horror on his face again, "God, they are so close to me, so close that I can see the scales on them clearly. I was so frightened that I didn't even think I could see you again. If any of them had looked down at that time, I would have been doomed."

"It seems like your luck is pretty good." Zhang Heng also sat down next to Fabricot after hearing this. "Now, can you tell me about the things in the town?"

"Of course, I'm sorry, please forgive me for being cautious before, because the story that happened here is really ridiculous, and..." At this point, Fabricot hesitated again, "You know there are only two buses here. Do you have any contact with the outside world? I came here on the bus in the morning. I didn’t see you on the bus at that time. I don’t know where you came from. People in Newburyport said that there are usually no other foreigners. People will come here.”

"I came from Arkham," Zhang Heng lied calmly, "...I was ordered to investigate what happened here."

"Ah, are you an agent? No wonder your skills are so good." Fabricot suddenly realized after hearing this, and then a look of regret appeared on his face, "So the higher-ups have also noticed something strange here. Yes, there are already a lot of legends about this place, but I really didn’t expect those legends to be true. I should have told you everything I know earlier, Mr. Agent.”
