Pollution throughout the territory - #294 - Chapter 290 Sabbat: Maggot Man

Xia Ren raised his head, his eyes wide open.

He clearly remembered that the book was hidden in his clothes, wasn’t it? Why did it appear in the hands of that old man?

Xia Ren put his hand into his cloak and groped around.

The result is empty.

Not only the book in the old man’s hand, but also the “L’lyeh Text” and “The King in Yellow” also disappeared without a trace.

“When exactly…”

When the old man and Yu Chen left together?

Or when you follow the team yourself?

Or maybe he never had them from the beginning?

Xia Ren couldn’t help but have countless suspicions in his heart.

It was obviously not far from Arkham City, but no one knew about the town, the large number of cemeteries on the road leading to the town, the empty and silent streets, the weird old man who greeted them, the weird food they were served, and the silent little boy. The residents of the town, the snow on the roads and in front of the church, and the absurd and terrifying cult rituals at this moment!

Everything is like a weird nightmare, full of unreality.

He couldn’t tell whether this town really existed, or whether his experience tonight was all imagination.

You have to know that in the last scene when he appeared at the beach, he had just escaped from the mental hospital with the man named Mu Susu!

Xia Ren felt that his sanity had reached its limit and he was going crazy!

No one in the surrounding town residents paid attention to Xia Ren’s condition. When the old man raised the book high above his head, everyone knelt on the ground to show their piety.

Xia Ren’s mind was still in confusion, but his body followed the crowd and knelt down.

Suddenly, the enemy who was far away from the flame pillar no longer hummed in a low tone, but instead raised the pitch and started playing loudly.

The sharp tone made people suddenly frightened. Xia Ren’s body pressed even lower, his hands almost sank in the soft soil, and he ignored even the maggots crawling up his face.

The source of this fear does not belong to this dark world, or even to the entire Blue Star, but only to the strange space where the stars shine.

He comes from – the universe!

The spurting of the flame pillar reached a peak and then stopped abruptly without any warning.

Then came unimaginable darkness.

The greasy river flows past, rolling up layers of waves, and then dots of light light up in the darkness, which are the spores released by the huge toadstools.

Although the light of the spores is far less than that of the flame pillar, people can still barely see the outline of this space.

Suddenly, with a rhythmic flapping of wings, a group of alien creatures flew out of the distant darkness. They had wings, but they did not look like birds. Normal people’s eyes could not see all of them clearly. Normal people’s eyes could not see all of them clearly. The brain cannot remember them all. These things are not crows, moles, vultures, ants, bats, or rotting human corpses. They are indescribable and indescribable.

Xia Ren suddenly realized that the caves he saw along the way just now were most likely the nests of these creatures!

Their wings, with webbing and fascia, fly forward limply.

When these things flew into the crowd performing the ceremony, the town residents in cloaks grabbed their claws and jumped up, riding on the unknown creatures one by one, along the dark but bumpy road. The edge of the uneven river enters the deep and dark corridor.

There, evil trickles converge into unexplored waterfalls of staggering proportions!

This waterfall is one of the places where the river passes, but Xia Ren was unaware of it just now, because this waterfall with a vertical drop of hundreds of meters did not make the slightest sound!

Suddenly, one of the flying creatures made a shrill and piercing cry and pounced directly in Xia Ren’s direction.

All the future residents and the town residents who left on flying creatures turned their heads, and their eyes under the cloak stared at him indifferently.

“Oops, exposed!”

Great fear pressed against Xia Ren. He knew that he could no longer hide himself no matter what, so he turned around and ran away in the direction he came from.

“Waibi, Waibi!”

He shouted at the top of his lungs, but the whole space only echoed his shouts, and Yu Chen’s response never came.

“damn it!”

The old man followed Yu Chen. They were the first ones to board the flying creatures and may have already left.

Xia Ren stopped waiting and ran faster.

With every step he took, the soles of his feet would sink into the soft soil, crushing large swaths of maggots to death. However, no matter how many they were crushed to death, it would not be enough to affect their number, because the entire space was filled with this stuff. He could not imagine why it was so deep. There will be so much filth under the ground, and there is no time to think about it at this time.

Two town residents gave chase, while the rest continued to leave in those flying creatures. Perhaps in their eyes, an ordinary human being was not worthy of attracting too much of their attention.

Xia Ren was already running very fast, and even he was surprised that his body could maintain such abundant vitality and solid coordination despite extreme fear, as if it was being controlled by someone else.

But the residents of those two towns are faster, and the distance between them is quickly closing.

Xia Ren looked back and was almost frightened out of his wits.

They are not running on two legs at all like themselves!

Under the simple cloak, two white, fat tails about as thick as the body protruded, like the tails of a python, but not as long as a snake’s tail, and the swinging method was not left and right, but one back and forth. Telescopic wriggling.

It’s just like……

Xia Ren lowered his head and glanced at his feet.

In an instant, he understood why there were so many maggots here, why the touch was so sparse and soft when he accidentally collided with others, and why there were no their footprints on the snow.

“Because the residents of the town don’t have any feet at all, and their lower bodies are also maggots!

They are – maggot people! “

This kind of body structure has great advantages in the soft ground underground. It is simply impossible for me to run past them with just one pair of legs!

Just when Xia Ren realized this, his ears suddenly hurt.

He heard two loud roars coming from behind him.

“Hum————”

This is simply like the sound that a human throat can make, but more like the whistling sound of rapid air flowing through a curved pipe.

No wonder the old man pretended to be mute, because their vocal organs were simply not strong enough to support them in making complex syllables!

“Hum————”

The roar was getting closer and closer, and at this rate, he would be caught up in less than half a minute.

“what to do!”

Without the support of companions and the complicated terrain, we would definitely not be able to fight back.

In the darkness, his feet softened, causing him to stumble.

The situation that was already a matter of life and death was made even worse because of this mistake!

Happy holidays everyone!
