146, Judgment Day
"How did his shadow come back?"
As soon as this sentence fell, everyone was shocked.
The comments that had been a little less active just now began to speak enthusiastically.
[Fuck, really, didn't the magician notice it before? Their shadows disappeared after entering this dungeon. Not only the trainees and NPCs, but also the buildings in this town had no shadows.]
[Yes, yes, yes, I remember this too. Look at the circle of people by the fireplace. There is nothing under their feet. Only the rescued trainee has it.]
[This shadow's sudden return must have some omen. By the way, who of you watched the live broadcast just now? I switched out and didn't see it.]
The trainee who hesitated for a long time and couldn't speak warmed himself by the fireplace, gradually calmed down, and finally spoke.
"We went out together just now. It was raining heavily outside..."
Just less than ten minutes ago, the trainees who had changed their clothes early rushed into the heavy rain in raincoats.
Strangely enough, as we walked from the cathedral into the city, the rain in the sky actually became much lighter. When we finally reached the center of the city, the rain that had almost formed a curtain of rain in front of the church had completely stopped.
Not only that, the street lights in the center of the city flickered, with the special effects often seen in horror movies, which made people feel uneasy.
Everyone held the purification gun in their hands and looked around vigilantly.
Someone found something wrong and pointed to the ground beside and shouted: "You...you look there!"
Looking in the direction of the finger, there were puddles of water on the beige striped tiles of the town.
The high moon rose from the night sky, and a cluster of cold light lit up on the curtain with dark colors as the main color, looking down at the earth from a high position.
In those small pools of water, hideous and ominous shadows gradually appeared after pushing away the mist.
The black buildings were reflected on the water surface, and dark asphalt flowed down from the top of the spire, dyeing all the cold and hard lines on the edge of the town into a deep color, rich and hideous.
Just then a dark cloud passed by, and the moonlight was obscured by the layers of the night sky.
The sky and the earth suddenly became dark.
The black shadow, twisted to the point of being unrecognizable, was entangled in it. The next second, it brought up a splash of water, broke out of the accumulated water, and rushed into the sky with a scream.
It happened in a split second. Anthony, who reacted the fastest, suddenly had his eyes lit up by blood. He raised the Purification Gun in his hand slightly and shot the black shadow.
The vampire's ability gave him unparalleled night vision, and also allowed him to find out something was wrong earlier than others.
"Uh ah ah ah ah ah——"
The black shadow roared like a beast.
The bullet of the Purification Gun was silver-white. After it was pushed into the black shadow's chest, it devoured the original color at an incredibly fast speed. The black shadow was suddenly broken up from the center, turned into countless drops of water and scattered on the ground again, and finally pulled back to the original color of the water droplets.
When Anthony finished dealing with the black shadow, he looked back and found that the other trainees were still at a loss in the dark night, not knowing what had happened.
Damn it, there are no street lights here, and the moon is blocked, so visibility is minimal.
If the battle continues like this, the trainees will definitely suffer.
"What are you still standing there for?! Get ready to evacuate!" Anthony yelled, and turned around and ran back first.
The puddle connected the corners of the entire street, and the reflection of the town inside just happened to be a mirror effect with the ground, and it could overlap with a slight fold. In the rainy night, thousands of black hands crawled out from it and rushed to the trainees.
Suddenly greeted with such a roar, everyone woke up and no longer cared about what the black shadows looked like in their eyes. They raised their guns and ran back while shooting.
But there were too many black shadows.
These "residents of the evil city of hell" in the mouth of the little pope had twisted bodies, like ghosts asking for their lives, and their dark eye sockets could not even be illuminated by the moonlight.
They could only make out the surging blocks of color with the help of the splashing water and the tracks of the silver-white light bullets in the air, and fired aimlessly into the darkness.
"Wait... Don't shoot, they seem to be..."
Several of the trainees saw their appearance clearly and let out a short scream.
Someone heard the scream and turned around suddenly, but they didn't expect a black shadow to break through the trainees' gradually retreating defense line, heading straight towards them, and suddenly pounced on the trainee who turned back.
There was no blood as expected, no separation of the head and limbs, and even no sound of flesh being torn.
"Bang——"
The person who was pounced by the black shadow rolled his eyes and fell straight to the ground, and the dirty water splashed all over him.
So the other trainees hurriedly carried him back.
After listening to this story, Zong Jiu frowned, "No wounds?"
Sure enough, after checking again, the trainee lying on the ground had no signs of injury on his neck or chest. Except that he still hadn't regained consciousness and was still twitching on the ground, there was no abnormality at all.
The white-haired young man squatted on the ground and touched his chin, "Does anyone see clearly what those black shadows are?"
Several trainees raised their hands hesitantly, and Anthony also paused and raised his hand to indicate.
Zong Jiu turned his sight to the ordinary trainees.
"I, my eyes were strengthened. Although it was very dark at that time, I saw a little bit."
The streets of the town were not ordinary dark. The darkness could even flow and seep out from the puddles of water, as if it had a real life. Ordinary eyesight enhancement could not see anything from it.
Everyone looked at the trainee.
The latter stammered: "They, they seem to be residents of the town."
Before everyone could make an uproar, he added uncertainly: "It is also possible that I saw it wrong, because their appearance is really different from the townspeople of the City of Kindness."
There was a dead silence in the side hall. The other people who raised their hands also nodded silently to express their affirmation.
The live broadcast room was full of discussions.
[Is there a sister who just squatted in this live broadcast room who can come out and explain what is going on? ]
[Here I come, I was here just now, wait for me to type first. Fortunately, the brightness can be adjusted when watching live broadcast, otherwise we would really be as confused as the trainees]
[That's right, I'm afraid]
[This B-level boss is right, those black shadows are indeed residents of the town, honest and fair, I can be 100% sure of this, but there is one thing, these bosses may be too hasty at the time and didn't notice... that the shadow merged into the body of the unconscious trainee! ]
Zong Jiu stood up from the ground and suddenly raised his eyes, "You all roll up your sleeves and see."
Everyone did as he said.
The trainees rolled up their sleeves one after another, revealing a lotus-white arm underneath.
Soon, exclamations came one after another.
"Why am I missing a black line!"
"Hey, me too, me too!"
Among the twenty-nine people, there were two trainees whose black lines were inexplicably eliminated, and the sinful black lines on the hands of the other trainees were still the same, still six.
Faced with this incredible situation, the two trainees were also confused. Because they, like everyone else, fired at the shadows randomly.
"Is it because you hit them and we didn't?"
Xu Sukai spoke thoughtfully, and then quickly denied his speculation.
In the heavy rain just now, there were countless shadows rushing over, densely packed. There were a total of 29 people, and it was impossible that only two of them hit the shadows. This speculation was too outrageous.
The little devil sat on one side, sinking his whole body into the soft cushion of the sofa, supporting his chin with both hands, watching their discussion with great interest.
Zong Jiu glanced back at him, and the latter immediately gave him a sweet smile.
"Let's do this."
Zong Jiu stood up, "Today's weather is really bad, and there are unpredictable situations. Everyone should go back and rest first. Everything will have to wait until the wounded wake up tomorrow to decide."
That's true.
They are now surrounded here, and the wounded will not wake up for a while. Before figuring out what the things that escaped from the evil city outside are, rushing into the rain is tantamount to committing suicide.
Everyone is a senior trainee, it is impossible that they don't understand this. In the case of incomplete clues, it is not a good choice to attack rashly. It is better to waste time and wait than to joke with life and death casually.
So the trainees had to return to the dormitory behind the cathedral with a lot of questions in their stomachs, led by the nun.
Only the little devil, Zong Jiu and Anthony were left in the side hall.
The white-haired magician rubbed his temple tiredly.
The fire from the fireplace jumped on his beautiful face, lengthening the shadows cast by his facial features and carving them deeper.
Anthony looked at the unconscious trainee on the ground with a complicated expression: "They are right, the black shadow is indeed a resident of the town. And...it has also merged into his body."
Because of his innate ability, Anthony was the one who watched the whole process.
At that time, he saw the black shadow pounce on the trainee, and merged into the other person's body like water and milk, without a trace.
Faced with this situation, he also expressed his speculation and reasoning.
On the ground is the City of Good, and under the ground is the City of Evil.
The residents of the City of Good are full of kindness, and the residents of the City of Evil are naturally full of malice. The two cities are exactly the same in the reflection of the water, just like the reflection of a mirror.
Can it be understood that the residents of the City of Evil are also exactly the same as the City of Good, just like copying and pasting?
Watching Anthony's back as he left the corner, the little devil who had been holding his head up as an outsider jumped off the sofa.
The nun appeared from behind the shadow and put the unlucky guy who was unconscious on the ground on the sofa to rest.
The little devil yawned on the spot, opened his arms to the white-haired young man very skillfully, and began to act like a spoiled child.
"It's so late, I'm so sleepy, brother, let's go upstairs and sleep together."
Zong Jiu glanced at him and stood still: "Sorry, playing with you does not include □□ service."
The little devil's eyes rolled around and looked at him expectantly, "Then brother has to tell me a few bedtime stories."
Zong Jiu: "..."
Zong Jiu: "You have all the memories of the devil. Instead of listening to the story, why not recall your scumbag deeds in the future, how about it?"
