Chapter 679 Death Comes (2)

"May my prayer reach Thee; incline your ear to my cry!"

This sacred technique is similar to a panacea, if Lu Li doesn't know which technique he needs to use to achieve what he wants, he can try it.

"I hope that the three of us can be protected by the Holy Light Shield and stay away from filth, odor and corrosion."

As soon as the words fell, three shimmering domes covered Lu Li and his party.

"I hope that the weight on my body can be temporarily reduced to make it easier to carry."

Wool naturally has to be pulled as much as possible.

The wish just now was too simple, so Lu Li followed up with another wish.

Under Duke's gaze, the giant Wade Lowe began to shrink rapidly, and in an instant it turned into an exquisite simulation doll, about the size of a palm, and the same weight.

And after handing over half of the bag to Zhou Tian, ​​the remaining half bag of materials is also the same, rapidly shrinking.

Pan Ming: "..."

In this test, he seems to have participated in everything, but his presence is pitifully small, especially after seeing the operation of a cheating player, his heart becomes extremely complicated.

For a moment, both Duke and Pan Ming didn't know what to say.

"go in."

"Do as I said earlier."

Lu Li broke the weird atmosphere with his words.

After going through so much, he can already accept this convenience calmly, and at the same time, he is also ready to repay the debt in the future.

In this way, the three pressed their respective thoughts and started exploring without wasting time.

Lu Li jumped into the crack first, followed by Duke, and Pan Ming was in charge of the rear.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is taking care of Duke, a non-combatant, which makes him very unhappy. At the same time, he has also learned some lessons:

Assistant Professor Bai was not wrong. It is not appropriate to choose a technology route too early, and there are too many problems to face. Therefore, it is very necessary to minor in a certain type of strength to avoid accidents.

"This damn place is really disgusting..."

Duke let out a sigh, and then began to complain.

The bones, viscera, and viscous and blackened unknown substance on the inner wall should be mixed with strands of green.

Even with the holy light covering the whole body, people can't help but frown, for fear that this disgusting and filthy thing will affect the soul through the body.

Frankly speaking, Lu Li also had the urge to vomit. Like a sewer worker, he walked ahead to open the way.

As for Pan Ming.

This person with a little cleanliness wants to set a big fire and burn this damn place clean.

Gollum... Gollum...

The sound of diving is transmitted to the ears through the light membrane.

At the same time, as the three of them continued to go deeper, the crack that Duke tried to open before gradually closed, and soon returned to its original state. Only the missing diary proved that two groups of people had visited here one after another.

As an international metropolis, the sewage facilities in Fog City have a lot of deficiencies, and they have spent countless sums of money, but they still can't completely solve them.

Because of this, the era of the great plague that Duke mentioned not long ago came.

First there were two flus, then cholera, then scarlet fever, there were funeral convoys marching through the streets at every moment, and even in order to meet the huge demand, the undertakers broke the tradition of only using black horses to send off the dead and changed them to any Any color is fine.

It is a pity that after each epidemic, the days are not peaceful. Smallpox comes in waves, and typhus and typhus also make a comeback.

In the era of the Great Plague, the number of dead is impossible to count, at least starting at 200,000.

Under such circumstances, the Public Health Committee was established, and they took the lead in rectifying the sewers, requiring that the sewers in all areas must be connected and a complete drainage system must be built.

Because, the original sewer is essentially an extended version of the septic tank.

Lu Li, Pan Ming, and Duke can all provide proof of this.

At this moment, the three of them were walking through it, and countless dirty things passed by.

"I feel like I fell into a big pool of feces, corpses, and all kinds of indescribable things... Vomit..."

Duke retched.

Even though he never smelled the bad smell, and was protected by a holy light shield from his hair to the soles of his feet, his heart still felt agitated.

At the end of the line, Pan Ming's face was pale, and he held back not to vomit.

Compared to the extremely silent surface, the underground world is more "exciting". For a moment, Lu Li desperately wanted to turn his head and escape back to the surface to continue exploring instead of swimming in the septic tank.

"Be quiet for a while."

In order to prevent Duke from continuing, Lu Li immediately stopped this behavior so as not to affect his mood again.

But Duke retched for a while, and gradually got used to it. After all, he had encountered all kinds of heavy-tasting things in anatomy class, and his psychological endurance was not bad.

Of course, I still can't think about it.

I don't know how long it has passed.

ten minutes?

fifteen minutes?

In no more than twenty minutes, the scene in front of Lu Li finally changed. For him, no matter what appeared in front of him, it was a surprise.

Darkness, this is the main color of the reverse world. The stinky pool we walked through just now is actually dominated by this color, but there is some green mixed in.

But the two should not be confused.

The moment he climbed out of the stinky pool, Lu Li heaved a sigh of relief. He didn't dare to turn around and look back, but according to his perception, Duke and Pan Ming went ashore one after another and came to the next section of the underground passage.

This should be a newly built pipeline area in the late period of the Great Plague Era. The terrain is much better than the latter section. Except for some things stuck to the pipe wall, it looks particularly refreshing.

At least from Lu Li's point of view, this was indeed the case.

Pan Ming adjusted his mentality a little, looked around, and said, "Go on?"

"Well, be vigilant on the road."

Beside him, Duke said nonsense: "I have a strong premonition that I will encounter various existences that subvert cognition next."

...

...

In the vast darkness, there are countless darker shadows, but from time to time, a red glow suddenly lights up, and then disappears in a flash.

There is no doubt that those are monsters, after all, the eyes of normal people are not this color.

These monsters are slowly moving somewhere, as if they sensed something.

But their movements are particularly rusty, which makes people think of animal cubs, that is, cubs that have difficulty walking and cannot grasp a sense of balance.

"Nyarlathotep uln shugg. Ch'nglui shogg. Sll'ha orr'ee ah fhayak. Dlloi hafh'drn mnahn'. y'hah."

And in the deeper darkness, there are prayers echoing, the voice is very soft, but it is extremely clear in this silent underground world.

"Sure enough, are you being targeted by the evil god?"

In front of the stone slab, Mr. Holmes was smoking his beloved clay pipe, frowning tightly.

Because the meaning of the above prayer is very clear.

"Nyarlathotep, I call you to this world. Please cross the threshold of your dark kingdom. I invite you to eat the soul I offer you. Take care of your humble summoner. Amen."
