Chapter 555 Finally Found a Place to Sleep
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"
With the flash of the sword light, the blade of the cane pierced the werewolf's head, and the huge werewolf raised its claws and swung them desperately a few times, then fell softly to the ground without a sound. And at the same time Fangzheng killed the werewolf, he felt as if an invisible force entered his body along the blade. And the body that was originally suffering from the pain in the chest seemed to become much more comfortable under the effect of this warm current.
What is going on?
Fangzheng put down the long sword in his hand and opened the Codex of Dimension again, but the system didn't seem to have changed. It still prompted [System Offline], so Fangzheng could only close the Dimensional Code, then he walked to the werewolf and picked up the music box that had fallen on the ground before, and at this moment, Fangzheng's sight stopped not far away on one of the corpses.
It was a woman, she was wearing a long white dress, and her body was already bloody. Judging from the wound, it should have been torn apart by the minions of a large beast. But these are not important, the important thing is... On the woman's chest, there is a bright ruby brooch.
"So this is ah………"
Seeing this, Fangzheng has almost guessed the whole process. This woman should be the mother of the little girl, and the man who just went crazy in front of him is the father of the little girl. Obviously, the woman found her husband, but was attacked by werewolves and died in front of her husband. That's why her husband hacked and killed those crazy guys so angrily.
But it's a pity that anger destroyed his last bit of sanity... As for why he became like this, Fang Zheng didn't know. Maybe he should be able to get some clues in the further exploration of this town.
"Hey………"
Thinking of this, Fangzheng also sighed. He hesitated for a while, but walked to the side of the female corpse and took down the brooch. If Fang Zheng's guess is correct, then these things are the relics of the girl's relatives. Fang Zheng has no way to take them back, at least he should return these relics to the little girl. As for the two corpses, Fangzheng couldn't bear to let them die in the wilderness like this. It happened that this was a cemetery, and there were pits dug everywhere that were not filled, so Fangzheng also found two adjacent deep pits, and put the two corpses into the wilderness. Put it into it and bury it, and then he stuck the hunter's weapon in front of the grave as a tombstone... At least, this is the only thing he can do now.
But that man asked himself to go to church before? Is there something in the church?
Thinking of this, Fangzheng also walked up the stairs, then opened the iron gate and entered the building in front of the cemetery. When he climbed up the ladder to the second floor, he realized that it was a library or a reading room, and there were scattered documents everywhere. Fangzheng glanced at it casually, and found that it was written on something similar to Crazy ramblings, such as "Byron Weiss's spiders cover up all methods of ritual. It's a pity, I hate spiders..." Kind of gibberish that I can't understand what I'm talking about.
"Rather than the church, why do I feel more like a lunatic asylum? Shouldn't this make me jump to escape again?"
While complaining, Fangzheng walked to the end, where there was a spiral staircase, and beside the staircase, there was a... a large treasure chest.
"........."
Looking at the treasure chest in front of him, Fangzheng hesitated for a moment, then he stretched out his hand to hold the cane sword tightly, and stabbed at the treasure chest a few times.
The treasure chest didn't respond at all.
It seems that this is a real treasure chest that has not escaped.
"I feel more and more like I have come to some RPG world..."
While complaining, Fangzheng opened the treasure chest, but to his disappointment, there was nothing in it that Fangzheng felt could advance the "plot". There was only a very strange tool that seemed to be used to inlay something , Fangzheng fiddled with it a few times, and then casually threw it back... This is not a game, he can't carry so many useless things with him.
Having said that, this is not a game, otherwise who would put such a boring thing in the box, you just give some coins... I can't seem to buy anything.
After making a guest appearance of a hero rummaging through boxes, Fang Zheng walked up the steps, then he stretched out his hand and pushed open the closed door at the end of the stairs.
"Squeak..."
The heavy door opened slowly, and a strong scent of incense came in. Fangzheng raised his head, looked around carefully, and then walked in slowly. What he saw in front of him was a gorgeously decorated church, with several stone statues of different shapes erected on both sides, and a candlestick erected in the middle of the church. The brilliance of the setting sun sprinkled into the church from the upper window, bringing a bit of warmth.
"Aha………"
And at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from Fang Zheng's side, which startled him. Fangzheng turned his head hastily, and saw on the right side beside him, an old man wrapped all over in bright red rags was looking at him with a smile. His hands were slender, and he didn't even look human, but his tone was not as crazy as those monsters outside.
"Oh...you must be a hunter..."
I saw the old man raised his head, looking around like a snail crawling out of its shell, and then turned his head to the direction where Fang Zheng was.
"I'm sorry the incense overwhelms your scent. Well, well, I've been waiting for you to come, these hunts have kept everyone indoors, waiting for the end... so it was, so it is now, Forever... But all this will not end easily, at least not this time, and even some townspeople hiding indoors have deteriorated, the screams of female townspeople, the stench of blood, the roar of monsters, all of these have been Not uncommon anymore. I can tell you that Yharnam is finished...but if you still see people who haven't lost their minds, bring them here, Uldun Chapel. They'll be safe here, incense ……”
While speaking, the old man waved his hands desperately, as if trying to grab something.
"...Incense will drive away wild animals, they dare not come here..."
Finally met a fairly normal person.
Although the old man in front of me is really not very aesthetically pleasing, at least she is the only person who can talk normally after Fangzheng woke up from this world!
Although strictly speaking, it is not very normal.
"Sorry, I'm not a hunter. In fact, I just stumbled here by accident."
Fangzheng spread his hands and made an apologetic gesture.
"To be honest, I have no idea what happened here. If possible, I hope you can answer my questions... What is Hunting Night? What is going on here?"
"..."
Hearing Fang Zheng's inquiry, the old man was silent for a moment, then he waved his hands again.
"Here... is cursed, human beings... are blinded by their greed, they are cursed, Yanan was born of blood, filled with blood, but now, it is about to die. But it can't Completely dead, can only linger like this, struggling hard to avoid the blade of the destruction blade..."
Sighing lightly, the old man lowered his head.
"Blood brings everything and destroys everything. They become monsters and are hunted by hunters, but hunters are also attracted by blood... so there are people who hunt hunters... this is hunting Night, everything, everything is different, everything is in chaos... as it was then, as it is now... and all we can do is pray..."
Having said this, the old man stopped, and he lowered his head, as if he had fallen into long-term memory and thinking, or he might just simply fell asleep. Seeing this scene, Fangzheng shook his head. Although the old man's speech was a bit confused and full of all kinds of literary and artistic expressions that Fangzheng hated most, at least he could learn from the words and phrases revealed by the old man. some intelligence.
At least for now, the name of this town is Yanan. It used to be glorious, but because of human's endless thirst for some kind of blood, it has become the dilapidated look it is now. Those infected by blood turned into monsters, that's why hunters appeared to hunt them down, and the hunters themselves seemed to be infected with the power of that weird blood during the hunting process... What I just encountered That man may be one of the hunters who were confused by blood. Thinking about it carefully, he seemed to be muttering something like blood or the fragrance of blood at that time...
"Can I rest here for a while?"
Thinking of this, Fangzheng looked at the old man again, and the old man nodded.
"Of course, Hunter, you can rest here, please..."
I told you I'm not a hunter...
Facing the old man, Fangzheng was also speechless. Although he wanted to go back and find the little girl as soon as possible, after such a long time of fighting and exploring, Fangzheng was already a little tired, so he found a place in the corner of the church, and leaned against the old man. Next to the wall, Fangzheng just closed his eyes.
Soon, heavy drowsiness flooded in, and not long after, Fang Zheng fell into a deep sleep...
And soon, Fangzheng opened his eyes again.
There was only darkness in front of his eyes at the moment.
"This is………"
Fang Zheng stood up and looked in front of him in surprise. He thought he was just taking a nap, but now it looked like it was dark here. And...it doesn't look like the church he was in just now.
So, what exactly is this place?
And at this moment, suddenly, a very familiar voice sounded from not far away.
"Master Ashes, can you hear my voice?"
