Chapter 12: I'm leaving now.
In the dim basement No. 4.
The firelight flickered, and a lit white candle was placed in each of the four corners of the central altar.
A sunflower-shaped potted plant stood quietly on the altar, with its head bowed and bent over, as if it was wilting.
The wrinkled old hand held the small glass bottle and carefully poured the blood from the bottle.
Drops of blood with dim light fell and dripped onto sunflower.
The blood drops were instantly absorbed by the sunflower leaves.
The next second, the sunflower seemed to regain some vitality, slowly straightened up, and at the same time revealed its "true face".
There is a baby's face in the middle of the sunflower, with its eyes closed, as if it is in a sweet dream.
"Wow!!!"
It suddenly opened its eyes, revealing pupils that were completely filled with darkness and malice without a trace of white, and burst into tears.
The strange, hoarse cry of an owl, accompanied by circles of black light, vibrated in all directions.
call!!
All the torches and candles in the basement were extinguished.
The priest was forced into a corner by the non-existent strong wind, and he even felt that his soul was about to be blown out of his body.
Fortunately, the crying only lasted for a few seconds, and the strange pot of sunflowers lowered its head again and fell into deathly silence.
The priest wiped his sweat with lingering fear and said in a low and hoarse voice:
"It seems that it doesn't like the taste of the moon very much...but it clearly belongs to this sequence, why is this happening?"
The old priest came to the altar again. He looked down at this powerful monster with deep eyes.
Suddenly he noticed that a thin branch had stretched out from the potted plant, pointing in a certain direction outside the basement.
It seemed like there was something over there attracting it.
"Um?"
The old priest looked back in the direction the branch pointed, but could only see the iron door of the basement.
Bang!
The iron door of the prison was opened.
"You guys should escape while the chaos is going on. I have already killed the guards nearby."
Chen Lun stood in front of several sacrifices that looked like frightened quails and spoke softly.
But they turned a deaf ear to it, and even became more frightened, hugging each other and shrinking into a corner.
"Please... please don't kill us."
Chen Lun was slightly stunned, then he lowered his head to look at his clothes: a leather coat, a brim hat, and a short sword at his waist.
He realized that these poor guys mistook him for a church guard, so he took off his disguise and returned to his original linen clothes.
"I'm not a bad person, understand?"
Chen Lun shrugged helplessly.
After seeing this, the sacrifices finally believed Chen Lun's words, but they still did not dare to step out of the prison gate.
Chen Lun sighed softly.
"I've given you a chance. If you don't want to die, leave now."
He left after saying a few words.
"Thank... Thank you! Please tell us your name, benefactor!"
Chen Lun turned around and saw one of the girls bowing to him and thanking him with an expectant look in her eyes.
He didn't care, waved his hand and walked quickly to .
"I, Chen Lun, never leave my name when I do good things. If you really want to know, just call me Red Scarf!"
"???"
Leaving the girl with a confused look on her face, Chen Lun had already arrived at the door leading to the upper floor.
He used the key to open the iron door, which immediately attracted the attention of several guards in the area behind the door.
While they were still stunned, Chen Lun had already used animal language to command the rats to rush towards the other side.
He also followed closely behind with a dagger in hand to finish off the opponent.
Before that, he threw the key chain to a big black rat and ordered it to hand over the keys to the imprisoned sacrifices one by one.
I believe that as long as those people are not so stupid that they can't even open the door, it will be easy for them to escape in the chaos.
With him here to attract firepower, the mission of rescuing the sacrifice was basically accomplished.
Chen Lun wiped the neck of the last guard, and in front of the man's dying eyes, he wiped the blood-stained dagger clean on his body, then sheathed the sword.
clang——
Click!
[Kill the Red Apple Church guard and gain 10 experience points]
Chen Lun stood where he was, glancing at the bodies of the church guards lying all over the place.
Without exception, they were all bitten to pieces by the big black rats, their faces were covered in blood, and there was a fatal cut on their necks caused by a sharp knife.
Woof! Woof woof!!
There was a roar of a violent canine beast.
When Chen Lun turned his head, he felt a fishy wind blowing in his face, and a bloody mouth full of densely packed sharp teeth blocked his vision.
Click! !
The bloody mouth closed, and the sharp fangs collided and crushed suddenly, making a loud noise.
Chen Lun rolled over and successfully avoided the attack.
But there was a tiny cut on his cheek, and blood was oozing out.
[You have been attacked, HP -1]
[You are infected with bacteria and fall into the state of [Minor Rot Toxin], with a life of -1 per second, which lasts for 10 seconds]
He frowned and looked at the attacker.
It was a strange big dog with festering skin all over its body, revealing the muscles underneath.
On one side of its ugly head, there was another half of a deformed head.
Only one eye full of madness and murderous desire, and half of the sharp teeth and gums were revealed.
"Another underworld product developed by the Red Apple Church..."
Looking at the half-dog with its mouth open and saliva dripping, Chen Lun remembered the information about this monster.
This is a supernatural creature created by the Red Apple Church using the diluted [Mysterious Substance of the Flesh and Blood Faction]. Although it is not as powerful as a true supernatural being, it is much more powerful than ordinary believers.
If you kill those ordinary church guards, don't be too easy, they will be killed one by one.
"Do you think I'm afraid of you? Xiu Gou Gou?"
Chen Lun stood up and walked slowly towards the rotten hound with a dagger in hand.
Woof! Woof woof woof!!
Woof woof!!
Soon, three or four more figures with festering bodies jumped out from the darkness, staring at Chen Lun with ferocious eyes.
Chen Lun smiled contemptuously, then walked back backwards at twice the speed.
In addition, he also noticed two tall figures wearing heavy armor and holding spears, slowly walking from behind the Rot Hound.
The dull armor with a red apple logo on it made a clanging sound when walking, showing its weight and sturdiness.
bass!!
The heavily armored guard pointed his spear at Chen Lun and slowly approached, apparently entering combat mode.
"Oh my goodness, the elite monsters are coming!"
Chen Lun didn't intend to get entangled with them here, so he turned around and ran away.
As long as he returned to his prison, he could escape from the hole he had dug.
One was chasing while the other was fleeing. Even though Chen Lun's agility attribute had reached 13 points, it was not easy to escape the pursuit of the four rotten hounds.
Chen Lun was seen running wildly in the narrow corridor, with the wind whistling in his face.
But the pressing noise and panting of the ferocious beast behind him did not disappear, but instead got closer.
"We can't go on like this. We have to deal with the four dogs at the back."
Chen Lun thought to himself.
Judging from the size and speed of the Rot Hounds that were chasing him relentlessly, he would be caught up by them even if he successfully escaped into the cave.
By then, the narrow space of the cave would affect his fighting ability.
"Damn it! Die!"
Chen Lun, who was moving quickly, made a quick decision, turned around abruptly, drew his sword and chopped it vertically.
Hit right in the face of an oncoming rotten hound!
