Chapter 700: The Devil's Heart

The once bustling streets are now deserted. There are overturned street stalls and overturned carriages on the side of the street. Some broken limbs can be seen everywhere on the side of the road. Among these corpses, there are some children's bones. It is like purgatory, which is embarrassing.

Du Dian walked all the way, landing silently, like a ghost floating in the ruins.

The same is true for Hailisha. Although she is unconscious, the fighting instinct carved in her bones since she was a child is still memorized by her body. She walks quietly, and the two of them, one in front of the other, flit across the street like shadows.

The night was shrouded in the sky over the city, there was no spark or laughter, only one or two corpse roars and screams in the distance from time to time.

"In history, there were hundreds of thousands of prisoners of war who were killed by generals, and their reputation has been passed down from ancient to modern. I don't know how many people will cast aside this crime I made." Du Dian raised his feet and stepped over the messy corpses on the ground, whispering to himself, It seems to be telling Hailisha, but also like talking to myself.

After he finished speaking, he smiled lightly, a bit self-deprecating.

It seemed that every time he was alone with Hailisa, he became more sentimental and human.

Traveling through the small half of the city, Du Dian gradually approached the Monster Research Institute on the map. At this moment, he suddenly noticed a corner alley in front of the street, hiding two faint figures of heat sources, one big and one small.

He was surprised in his heart, he didn't see half a living person along the way, and he didn't expect there to be people here.

He didn't change his route, and continued to walk forward. He immediately saw that the two hiding in the alley were an old man and a seven or eight-year-old girl. They were wearing thick linen clothes, and they looked like poor civilians.

The old man also noticed Du Dian and Hai Lisha. When he first saw it, he was shocked. He thought it was two walking corpses approaching quietly, but with the faint moonlight, he quickly saw Du Dian and Hai Lisha. The appearance, the complexion is not as pale as the walking corpse, nor is it blue-eyed and ferocious, so he breathed a sigh of relief, waved to Du Di'an, and pointed to the corner in front of him.

Du Dian didn't intend to pay attention to these two people at first, but he noticed the old man's movement and looked in the direction of his finger, only to see four or five walking corpses wandering around the corner of the street ahead, and then he understood.

Now that I saw it, seeing the old man's kind behavior, Du Dian didn't continue to be blind, and was about to take action to clean up those walking corpses. Suddenly, the little girl led by the old man sneaked over and pulled Holding Du Dian's hand, he wrote a shush gesture on the small mouth with two fingers, and grabbed Hai Lisha's hand with the other hand, as if to pull her into the alley.

Hai Lisha was covered by her, her face was expressionless, but her pure black eyes turned slightly, as if there was an evil murderous intent oozing out.

Du Dian didn't expect the little girl to be so bold, and without any resistance, he led Hailisha back to the entrance of the alley with her.

Seeing the little girl returning, the old man was obviously relieved on his anxious face. He didn't hold the little girl down earlier, causing her to run out by herself, which almost scared him to death. Seeing her return safely, the old man immediately grabbed her tightly. He gave her a reproachful look, but thinking of the presence of outsiders, it was not easy to be too obvious, so he looked up at Du Dian and Hai Lisha.

When Du Dian looked at him, he whispered to the old man: "You are not staying in the house, why did you run outside, there are walking corpses around here."

Seeing him talking, the old man trembled in fright, and immediately stretched his head to look at the alley. Seeing that the walking corpses hadn't noticed, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Du Dian in a low voice: "We have no food storage at home. If you don’t come out to find food, you will starve to death. Are you going to take refuge in Baron Angelet’s castle? If you want, we can go there together.【】”

He saw that Du Dian and Hai Lisha were both young and strong, and they might be able to help them if they were in danger.

Du Dian knew what the old man was thinking and understood in his heart. He asked, "Can Baron Angelet take refuge there? Does he have an army?" It's rare to meet victims in the inner wall area, so he can learn about the situation here by the way.

"You don't know?" the old man was surprised.

Can't help looking at Du Dian and Hai Lisha, and immediately saw the giant sword on Du Dian's back, his eyes lit up immediately, and said: "The castle of Baron Angelet is guarded by knights, these infected people can't get close, many people have already gone to We have taken refuge there, and if we can reach there, we will be completely safe!"

Du Dian nodded thoughtfully. It seems that the most scourge of corpses in the inner wall area is the civilians, nobles and monasteries, which have enough self-protection power in the corpse chaos.

He asked: "Has the army entered the city to clean up these walking corpses these days?"

The old man felt that the question was strange, but he still answered in a low voice: "The army has come several times, but only took away a small number of people. It is said that the army will come to govern soon."

Du Dian understood, it seems that the army temporarily abandoned these ordinary civilians, just like what he saw last time, it gave priority to sheltering the nobles, perhaps for the military department, when the nobles are selected from the corpse chaos, they can use Lei Ting cleaned up the mess with his wrist. As for whether ordinary civilians will be implicated, it depends on their own luck.

"I still have something to do, so I'll take my leave first." Du Dian stopped staying and was about to leave.

The old man was stunned.

"Big brother, don't go, those people will eat people." At this time, Du Dian's wrist was held by the little girl, and he looked down. The little girl was not beautiful, and her little face was dirty, but At this moment, he was tugging at him anxiously, and said: "As soon as you go out, you will be eaten by them, so you can go with us, as long as we get to Lord Baron, we will be safe."

Seeing this, the old man hurriedly echoed: "Yes, yes, you can go with us!"

Du Dian glanced at him, he knew that the old man wanted to use him to protect them, but the little girl obviously didn't see this, he raised his hand and touched the little girl's head, looking at her pure eyes without a trace of impurities , sighed, and said, "Poor child."

The old man hurriedly said: "The parents of this child went out to look for food a few days ago, and they never returned. Now this child is left alone..."

Du Dian shook his head slightly and interrupted his words. He took out half a bottle of walking corpse powder from his arms and handed it to the old man, saying: "If you smear this thing on your body, these monsters will not chase you. As for the few people in front Just, I solved it for you, you guys seize the opportunity and go quickly."

The old man was startled, holding the small bottle in his hand, a little puzzled.

Du Dian had already taken Hailisha out of the alley, striding towards the walking corpses at the corner.

As the distance got closer, these walking corpses sensed Hailisha's scent, and the ferocity on their faces immediately disappeared, trembling, and spitting from their sharp-toothed mouths.

Du Dian grabbed the handle of the knife and swung it around, the heads of several walking corpses were all chopped off, and he walked straight without looking back.

The old man and the little girl at the entrance of the alley were stunned. It took a long time after Du Dian left to react. The old man immediately opened the vial, poured out the powder inside and smeared it on his body, and then led the little girl along the street carefully. .

Du Dian walked to a forest, and the Monster Research Institute was in front of him. He glanced back at the street intersection, the old man and the little girl had gone away, his eyes flickered slightly, and he said to Hai Lisha: "People like them, I am afraid After a lot, you said that I saved them out of sympathy, is it hypocritical? Sure enough, it is difficult for people to control the stimulation of the senses, and visual touch can affect emotions..."

Hailisa remained silent, as if tacitly acquiescing.

Du Dian shook his head slightly, stopped looking, and slowly went deep into the woods.

The moonlight couldn't enter the woods, and it was dark inside, but under Du Dian's night vision ability, everything was like daytime. He crushed the venomous snake monster that ambushed him to death, and soon walked out of the woods, only to see a small hill in front of him. There is a flat and short building on it, which is the Monster Research Institute.

The structure of this monster research institute is the same as that of the city of Carmen. In Du Dian's perspective, there is a nine-story underground research institute under the hill. There is no activity on the ninth floor. Only some items have been bought by the other party. It seems to be a savings bank. , it has always been that the ninth floor is too deep, and the ground is humid, which easily affects the experiment.

This time Du Dian found that the range he could see with his clairvoyance eyes was significantly larger than before, and what he saw was clearer. His confidence suddenly increased a bit. He raised his hand and held the sword. The demon body, the sword melted, covered his whole body like a living black mucus, penetrated into the body, and soon, his appearance turned into a ferocious humanoid beast with elongated arms and sickled.

Whoosh!

His figure flashed suddenly, and the fallen leaves on the ground splashed, and the breeze brushed over the leaves beside them, swaying slightly.

There are eight limiters stationed in the flat building, with the same defensive strength as the monster research institute in Carmen City. Du Dian approached at a high speed and broke in through an open window in an instant.

The young man standing by the window holding a saber was talking to his companions. He didn't realize it. He became alert when Du Dian jumped into the window. Just as he was about to turn his head, a cold light passed by. His movements froze immediately, and then his head slipped off. down.

Killing one person instantly, Du Dian didn't stop, and immediately rushed to the person chatting with the young man on the opposite side. This was a beautiful woman with a bumpy figure in battle armor. As fast as a tiger, her back hit the wall, and the next moment she saw the terrifying figure in front of her completely occupy her eyes.

With a bang, Du Dian's arm swiped across, and he turned to another place, without looking back at the result.

When he attacked, he could see the positions of the eight people clearly, and all the actions and sequence of the shots were planned. When he attacked the third person, the others had already reacted, and they immediately shouted in fright. , At the same time, the demon body was inspired to surround Du Dian.

"Too slow!" Du Dian's dark golden eyes turned slightly, with a cold luster. Whenever his arms crossed the human body to harvest life, he felt a sense of pleasure. At this moment, when he saw a few people encircling and suppressing him, he suddenly changed his attention. Abandoning his original plan to break through one by one, he suddenly realized that these boundary guards were completely different from the ones he met last time.

Moreover, the Ripper is the legendary monster that is most fearless of group battles among all monsters!

It can even be said that the Splitter is a monster born for group battles, and the more it is surrounded by thousands of troops, the more destructive it can be to the extreme!

Puff puff!

Du Dian's tail spins rapidly. The tail structure is extremely special, like a cone, a blade, and a whip. Every section can be stretched out, fluffing into a clump of sharp blades. At this moment, it is ejected instantly during the dance, and the four people who came over immediately fell to the ground. They didn't have time to scream, and their injuries were horrible, their faces were blurred, and everything from their necks to their upper chests was broken, as if they had been slashed countless times by sharp knives.

Du Dian's knees were slightly bent, and he jumped out suddenly, and rushed to the person who was about to escape in an instant, hugged him with both hands, and pierced him from the back to be precise, and came out through the chest.

"No, don't—" Seeing Du Dian turn his head and look over, the other person was scared out of his wits, trembling and begging on his knees. He had already seen that he could never escape Du Dian's speed.

Du Dian rushed towards him quickly, stretched out his arm, and cut off his head, without hesitation in pleading.

Looking at the dead body on the ground, he felt the excitement in his mind getting stronger and stronger, and he felt a sense of exhilaration in his heart, as well as a little surprise. He didn't expect his power to be so strong. The heat response of people, five of them showed the heat response of high-level boundary people, but they still have no power to fight back in his hands.

"With my current strength, ordinary pioneers should be able to fight, unless they meet the level of the military god, it will be difficult." Du Dian thought to himself, he stepped on the door on the ground and entered in the research institute below.

Although the previous fight was short, it still alarmed the guards below. When Du Dian went down the stairs, he happened to meet a few guards who were rushing up to check the situation, and immediately took action to finish them off.

When Du Dian came to the laboratory on the first floor of the basement, he saw that some people were still conducting experiments in some laboratories, and did not notice the commotion outside, and some people opened the door and came out of the laboratory, asking the guards what happened Condition.

With the experience of the last looting, Du Dian was more familiar with the road this time and killed all the guards. As for the experimenters, he let them escape.

after an hour.

Du Dian carried a storage bag more than three meters high, and escorted a middle-aged man wearing glasses out of the monster research institute. The middle-aged man was called Xia Mansen, who was the branch director of the monster research institute and a doctor here. Well, there are a total of two doctors in this research institute, and the other one happened to be out tonight, and was invited by the nobles to attend the banquet.

"Hurry up." Du Dian shouted softly.

"It's not that I'm slow, it's that you're too fast." Xia Mansen said with a wry smile, trotting forward a few steps.

Du Dian took him to the edge of the woods, rang the bell, let Hai Lisa follow him, and then led him to move forward, through the grove, to the street outside.

Xia Mansen said as he walked: "I heard that the monster research institute in Carmen City was attacked not long ago, and that person is you, who are you, who dare to oppose our monster research institute again and again, do you know How dangerous is this?"

"Do you know Poland? You will see him later." Du Dian said, "If there is anything for him to tell you, he will teach you what to do."

Xia Mansen asked in surprise, "Poland is still alive?"

"You're still alive, too."

"I see."

There was no more communication along the way.

Du Dian returned along the original road and walked through a few streets. Suddenly, a red dot came into his eyes from the corner of his eyes. His pupils shrank and he looked up. The red dot came from the distant sky. He rushed here quickly, exuding amazing heat from his body, as powerful as he saw the pioneers in the dragon barren area.

"Support? Come so soon?" Du Di'an was startled.

But at this moment, this figure flew towards them without any intention of slowing down. It passed directly above the heads of the three of them and flew into the distance.

Du Dian was stunned for a moment, and realized that this person didn't come for Xia Mansen, as if he was rushing somewhere, and didn't notice them. He has practiced the dragon blood technique, and keeps the heat in his body low at all times, which is not easy to detect. Xia Mansen has an ordinary body constitution, which is even more insignificant. Needless to say, Hai Lisha has no heat fluctuations in her body.

Xia Mansen looked at the fast-moving figure, and the excitement that had just appeared in his eyes suddenly froze. He couldn't help stomping his feet fiercely, so angry that he wanted to yell, annoyed and angry.

Du Dian glanced at him and said: "It seems that this person is in a hurry, and you are destined to fall into my hands."

Xia Mansen held back the anger on his face when he heard his words, and pretended to be plain: "It's nothing, judging from his direction, he should be rushing to Baron Angelet's castle, and something must have happened there. Rather than saving me here alone, it is better to save more people."

"Oh?" Du Dian frowned, Baron Angelet? He suddenly thought of the old man and the little girl he met earlier, they seemed to be going there to take refuge, could it be said that it was not safe there?

Wait, it was the pioneers who rushed there earlier. Could it be that walking corpses with pioneer-level combat power appeared there? Could it be that Eleanor who was thrown back to the inner wall by him?

Thinking of these, his thoughts were uncertain, and the images of the old man and the little girl flashed in his mind.

The reason why I thought of them was not to worry about their safety.

It's what I plan to do, and it is very likely that the two people who have just helped each other will die there.

When he thought that Eleanor might appear there, the first thing he thought of was to stop the pioneers who rushed over just now. For him, the number of pioneer-level walking corpses is very small, and he can protect one by one, and really contain the inner wall The main strength of the district also relies on these boundary walkers and pioneer walkers.

However, in this way, if he helped Eleanor, it would be tantamount to sacrificing everyone in that Baron Angelet's castle!

"The plan can't be messed up..." He closed his eyes slightly, discarded the picture in his mind, turned his head and glanced at Hailisha next to him, took a deep breath, and said coldly to Xia Mansen: "Lead the way to Baron Angelet's castle."

"Where are you going? What are you doing?" Xia Mansen was surprised, but this was in a completely opposite direction.

"help."..
