Chapter 1428 The Eyes in the Suitcase
If the loud noise Norman heard at the beginning was just the collapse of the wall, then the roar he heard suddenly when he was about to step on the main road was enough to blow up the entire mansion. to an extent.
"Boom"
The moment he was about to step out of the alley, the rumbling sound spread from the family, and he was so startled that he suddenly withdrew his steps and shrank into the shadows.
Then, even a person like him who was hiding in the alley could see it when he looked up. Through the thick fog, a flame shot straight into the sky.
This is probably the first time he has seen the "top" of the underground black market since he was born. On the flat roof, the raging flames and large swaths of black smoke, even the gray mist, could not cover them all, and the crimson sky above could be seen from a distance.
"Roar"
Perhaps it was the huge movement that also shocked the living corpses on the street outside. After seeing the flames, they seemed to be insane. They reversed their sluggishness just now, spread their legs and ran straight towards the family mansion. The speed was frighteningly fast!
At least on this point, Norman guessed right. These guys who can even walk wobbly when no one is disturbing them are definitely not as easy to deal with as they appear on the surface.
"Fortunately, if it wasn't for this explosion, it would have happened just now"
He was just about to rejoice, but suddenly, he stared back at the flickering fire and froze in place.
"No, can this really be considered lucky?"
Sometimes, a certain thing may be called "lucky" for one person, but it is called "unfortunate" for another person, or even a group of people.
Yes, after all the living corpses on the street outside had left, he would be able to go to the hall of the Dark Spirit Pavilion and leave this ghostly place relatively safely. But the price he paid for his safe escape was the life of his entire family.
Thinking of this, the initial joy in Norman's heart was immediately melted away by the cruel reality.
"Ugh"
Norman obviously doesn't like his family very much, just like he doesn't like the two nephews in the suitcase. That family was full of intrigue and mercenary from the beginning to the end, and there was no human touch at all.
But now, he finds that he still can't hate at all, let alone treat this tragic destruction calmly.
Especially, the old head of the Werther family, his old father,
He maintained absolute reason until the end, and chose to let his youngest son, whom he didn't like very much, live.
The way of thinking that completely ignores human feelings and only considers the continuation of the family was what Norman hated most in the past, but now it has become the only reason for him to live.
Is there anything in this world that makes him feel more depressed than this?
"...Because you, and your daughter Charlotte, have friendship with that McLean, and are most likely to continue the blood of my Werther family! That's why I chose you, not your two more A capable brother!"
These words began to echo in his head again, which immediately made him feel particularly painful.
Because, the person who said this is probably dead now.
"All gone?"
In a trance, Norman, who was hiding in the shadows, suddenly found that the sound of running outside gradually faded away. This finally brought him back to his senses, and he quietly looked at the street with his head.
Indeed, there are no "people" anymore!
There was no time for him to hesitate any longer, the moment the old father fell down, Hai Erbo would leave. Regardless of whether the other party knew about the fact that he had sneaked away with the two children, he had to escape as soon as possible.
In the next second, Norman rushed up the already empty street, turned a corner and ran straight to the gate of the Dark Soul Pavilion.
It was worth the detours before, but soon, he broke into the empty hall of the Dark Spirit Pavilion, and then opened the passage without stopping to leave the underground black market.
...
London is neither small nor big. If you choose to fly non-stop with the help of a broomstick, you will soon be able to escape out of the fog.
But now, how could Norman dare to fly into the sky? Isn't that equivalent to blatantly provoking Hai Erbo?
It's just that walking on the street is obviously not an easy task. Because Norman discovered that, at some point since then, there seemed to be more and more living dead walking quietly in the mist.
And more importantly, the living corpses in this urban area are not as purposeful as those "similar" in the underground black market. Without Haierbo's clear guidance, they just wandered around aimlessly, making it impossible to figure out their walking route.
Sometimes you go forward well, but you will turn back the next moment, not to mention those who just keep spinning around the same place and never leave.
Norman carefully avoided it along the way, and hid in his suitcase to avoid the limelight as soon as he noticed something was wrong, but he was still almost discovered by those guys several times.
Half an hour later, Hai Erbo did not encounter him, but the danger was not less.
Until...he saw a familiar figure among those living corpses.
"Elena?"
It was his elder brother's wife, and also the mother of the older nephew in the box. As soon as he saw that familiar mutilated face, Norman's stomach churned, and he almost vomited out.
Although for more than half an hour, he had long been familiar with those cruel-looking living corpses, but when he saw acquaintances, he still felt extremely uncomfortable.
Even though, he has always been somewhat annoyed by this usually mean and mean sister-in-law.
Norman looked away, closed his eyes slightly, took a deep breath, and wanted to leave here. But he didn't expect that just seeing an acquaintance turned into a living corpse was not the most terrifying accident he had ever encountered!
Because his mind was agitated at the moment, he didn't even notice that a gap was opened from the back of the suitcase in his hand. And in the gap, a pair of erect eyes peeked out blinking.
And at the moment when he turned around and wanted to walk away gently...
"Mother!"
It wasn't just Norman who was stunned suddenly, but also the female corpse behind him who was no longer Elena!
"Roar"
Accompanied by a shrill roar, Norman immediately heard a rush of chaotic footsteps from behind, which forced him to start running forward without looking back.
"There are many obstacles!"
While running, he threw an obstacle spell behind him, but he didn't have time to complain about the children who were peeping outside. Because he understands that the other party's roar is likely to cause a chain reaction in this block, thus attracting groups of enemies.
At that time, even if he wanted to run, he couldn't run away.
And the most important thing is that
"...don't...don't disturb Hai Erbo!"
