Chapter 175 I have a plan
Hearing the sound coming from below, Lime carefully stuck it to the entrance and at the same time stuck his head out to look down along the stone bridge.
I'm still curious about how many unlucky people there are.
As a result, the eyes that were originally smiling immediately trembled after seeing the scene below, and even felt suffocated.
"Clap! Clap!"
The many figures below kept squirming their bodies, making sounds that could be said to be stimulating to the soul, and several disgusting huge blood-red flesh balls rolled forward.
There were dozens of figures standing still on the wall, as if they were asleep.
They seemed like deformed monsters that had drilled out of the human body, but they were covered with a layer of human skin and head. Dozens of centipede-like limbs were tightly grasping the wall, and their original spines were raised like mountains, tearing off all the skin on their abdomens.
There were also several deformed cultists who had abandoned their human bodies and were constantly patrolling back and forth. They used iron hooks as chains to lead monsters the size of children. They only had hair, and even the knuckles of their limbs could be vaguely seen.
On the wall covered with flesh and blood, there were countless struggling eyes and limbs, and one could even faintly hear their wailing.
There were several strange smells mixed in the air, the ears could hear the wailing of living creatures, and the eyes could see what looked like purgatory.
This place can be said to be a small hell.
There were even a few conjoined monsters that she couldn't describe. It was like dozens of people were forcibly fused together, chaotic and crazy.
Fortunately, their floor was covered by green plant monsters, so these guys couldn't come up, and the green plants also became their best umbrella of protection.
"Whoo~"
After watching for a few seconds, Shihui immediately retracted her head. She leaned against the wall somewhat exhausted, then sat down on the ground weakly with her head down.
At this moment, her head was so hot that it went blank, and she couldn't recover for a while.
She didn't know whether her heart was beating fast or slow, and the surroundings made her feel depressed and uncomfortable.
This was the first time Momo saw her like this. He immediately felt something was wrong and asked quickly, "What did you see?"
“I won the jackpot…”
Shihui now even found it difficult to speak. If it were an ordinary human cultist, it would be fine, but this place was obviously beyond his expectations.
It can even be said to be a place of SSS-level hell difficulty in the guise of a C-level dungeon.
"Crack!"
Hearing this, Momo wanted to get up and go check, but was immediately grabbed by the armor by Shi Hui.
I just heard her whisper: "Don't make any noise, be careful..."
To be honest, the scene just now was a bit beyond Shihui's tolerance. She was not afraid of murder, corpses, or zombies.
But only these disgusting monsters made her feel fear and disgust from the bottom of her heart.
Momo squatted down and nodded, comforting him: "Of course, we must confirm the information first, we are discussing the action."
He was warned by the lime and was obviously very alert, almost trying to keep the sound of his movements to a minimum.
The hellish scene below shocked him, and he also understood why Shihui had that expression. He couldn't help but make a strange sound in his throat, and then he immediately retreated.
"As a girl, can she suppress her screams in such a situation, or is it too difficult for her..."
This time, Shihui was even more silent, with no intention of speaking at all. He was even thinking about an escape route in his mind.
After all, she would never do anything that was beyond her ability and control.
Lime said in a weak, mosquito-like voice: "What are you going to do? Things may have gotten out of control..."
Momo did not object to Shihui's words, because the scene below was indeed beyond expectations and was even heading towards the worst.
But he still responded in a low voice: "Who else but me!"
"He's truly a man of steel..."
Hearing the seriousness in the other party's tone, even Shi Hui couldn't help but admire him. Those were words that could only be said with the determination to die.
At the same time, Momo turned his head and whispered to her, "But I can't implicate you. If you want to leave now, you'd better leave quickly, otherwise you may not be able to get out, even if you know teleportation magic."
Listening to the other party's persuasion again, Shi Hui was indeed tempted, but still asked:
"Why can't I get out?"
"Because this place has been almost polluted by the Outer God. When a real battle breaks out, that evil god might block this place based on the degree of pollution."
"So that's how it is. It's similar to a barrier, right?"
"That's true, but it only works on people like you, and it's very serious."
"What kind of person am I?"
"Those who have become transcendents by consuming some kind of magical element, or those with golden blood and all kinds of strange races, and you, needless to say, are the epitome of all."
"In other words, I might not even be able to cast magic by then, and I'll just be an ordinary person?"
"That's right, so I advise you to think twice before you act. After all, you're not a warrior. Without martial arts skills and a strong physique, you won't be able to survive this!"
"Someone is waiting for you, someone is looking forward to you. I believe that the Saint Torina in front of me is the hope of the future!"
Momo's analysis was very rational and decisive, and he told her almost all the information without reservation, while also persuading her to leave.
Shihui raised his head helplessly, and saw the stars above his head were so bright and beautiful that they were indescribable, like a flowing galaxy, which formed a sharp contrast with this place.
But she felt an unknown pain in her heart, as if it was torn apart, and she actually felt a little painful and aggrieved.
She tilted her head, took a deep breath, and finally asked, "Is it really worth it?"
"It's worth it. Too many people have died. We can't go on like this!"
Momo clenched his fists in response, his tone still unwavering. At the same time, he spoke as if he was expressing his last words or will:
“When disaster strikes, someone must do something, even if it may be in vain. There is no shame in fleeing, as they have hope for life.
But if everyone chooses to flee, who will hold up this collapsing world? Since I was born in this world, I am willing to fight to the death to protect it.
Whether it is for things or loved ones, the people are unwilling to witness loss and death, so escaping is never shameful.
But the soldiers cannot, they can only move forward, because the day they take up arms is a silent promise to protect the weak behind them.
I am the child of slaves and was raised by kind people. I didn't know how to repay them, so from that day on, I began to wander and hunt monsters.
I don't know when it started, but everyone in the borderlands has called me a hero. From the day I accepted this title, the thing I want to protect already existed.
There will always be a group of people who do things even though they know they can’t. They are not stubborn or crazy, but they firmly believe that a single spark can start a prairie fire.
Having said that, he stood up, looked up at the sky and said in a low voice: "They can corrode my body, but they cannot corrode my will."
His blood-red cloak appeared bright red under the starry sky, dancing in the wind like a battle flag.
'Who else but me?'
That fleeting glimpse brought tears to her eyes, but they were quickly wiped away.
Shime smiled awkwardly and said, "It's really a galaxy of shining stars."
She stood up by grabbing the vines on the wall, and at the same time drew out the revolver from her waist and the ice blade from her backpack. Her jade hands were covered with a layer of magical thin ice, which offset each other and did not infringe on each other.
Momo turned around and looked at her in confusion: "What does that mean?"
"despair!"
Lime smiled and hit his breastplate with the handle of the knife, saying: "Aren't you the best explanation?"
"Really? That's a compliment to me..."
"I'm not one to flatter others, but I won't throw my life away in the heat of the moment. Do you want to hear my plan?"
"Oh? That's truly an honor."
"I've already seen the location of the egg, but even if I go there and leave at the fastest speed, it will take several minutes.
But I can ensure that I can take the egg away safely. At such a fast speed, even if the Outer Gods want to intercept me, they won’t be able to do it.”
Momo was shocked when he heard this, and said excitedly: "Ten minutes! I can buy ten minutes for you while ensuring my own safety."
"That's more than enough. I'll give you a signal as soon as I'm able to evacuate. Remember that flash of light that passed by you?"
Looking at Shihui's smirk, Momo smiled and shook his head, saying: "Then just think of it as you showing off in front of me, and I will leave immediately then!"
"Then you better be careful, I might run away from you if you're not paying attention~"
"Your Highness the Saint is really good at making fun of me."
The two smiled at each other and stood at the entrance.
"Shh!"
Momo drew out two huge swords and jumped down without hesitation, only to hear a commotion immediately below.
"Intruder! Intruder!! Kill him now!!!"
"Martial Arts: Silver Light Slash!"
