Chapter 551: Dead City (2/3)

   Chapter 551 Dead City (23)

  Memories and thoughts gushed out, transformed into an inexplicable thing.

  If it is a strong adult man or woman, or a child without much memory, they may be able to withstand this process.

   But where did the old man endure this?

  Aunt Lydia just managed to hold on to her rationality in the end, stood up straight, and used her fairly strong arms to take her unconscious husband, a bald old man, from her son.

   There was a huge wound on his head, and he was holding a **** kitchen knife tightly in his hand. He apparently fought with his son before he escaped.

   "Where's Lika?"

Carrying her husband on her back, the old woman asked her daughter's news with a trembling voice, but got some good news: "You forgot? Didn't my brother-in-law say the day before yesterday that he would give Lika a surprise? That kid bought it in the axle town A new carriage, I took the whole family to Baron Dandelion to see flowers this morning."

  The man's voice was also full of rejoicing: "At least they are not in danger, hurry up, let's go to the guards..."

   They failed to escape in the end.

As another successful survivor in the apartment building, Miles, the mother and son, used the sword skills he had practiced since he was a child to fight his way out, and escaped from the pool of blood on the ground with his unconscious mother on his back. It's like a horrible apartment building like purgatory.

  He saw the mutilated body of the man on the street not far away.

  The young man recognizes him. He is the son of Aunt Lydia who takes good care of him. His name is Daan, and he is a generous carpenter.

Uncle Da'an usually helps the residents in the building to repair small tables and chairs for free, even if the charges are very fair, he has always been deeply grateful to the other party, and even practiced swordsmanship because Uncle Da'an gave him a gift when he was a child. He has a wooden sword.

  He longed for Uncle Da'an to support his family and take good care of his parents, and because he lacked paternal love since he was a child, he always secretly hoped that he could have a father like Uncle Da'an himself.

  It’s really not possible, I also want to be a good father, a good son and a good husband like Uncle Da’an.

   But now, he died here.

  Although there were several dead bodies of crazy monsters lying around him, the woodworking knife in his hand was really not good at fighting, and his upper body was covered with fuzzy flesh and blood scars and tooth marks from being detained.

And behind him, the bodies of two elderly people leaning against the wall—they had obviously fought too, and their bodies were covered with scars, but the unknown dizziness and weird absence finally made them lose their fighting power and finally fell down .

   "Grandma Lydia?! And Grandpa Leisen!"

  If it wasn't for his mother on his back, Miles would have rushed over to check their situation, but now, he could only carefully observe the surrounding situation, and then approached these corpses with a somewhat slow pace.

  What surprised and saddened him was that Aunt Lydia was still alive among the two old people.

   But she was also blinded, obviously dying.

   "Myers? And Rui Xi... You are all still alive... Good... Great..."

The old man struggled to spit out a mouthful of blood foam, then held the grief-stricken Miles with a trembling hand, stretched out his hand, trying to help him: "Don't help me, I'm going to die... Myers, I'm sorry, it's all this time But I still want to ask you to take care of Cynthia..."

  The old woman moved her body away, blocked by the old man's body and the old woman's body, biting her own arm, the little girl raised her head with teary eyes and kept her voice as silent as possible.

   "Myers..." Aunt Lydia's voice became weaker and weaker: "Myers...protect..."

   "Protect your mother... She is too miserable, she hasn't had time to enjoy the blessings... and Cynthia, protect...they..."

   "I will, I will definitely..."

The young purple-haired man felt that the strength in his palm was rapidly disappearing, and he didn't have time to say anything—whether it was the gratitude for so many years of help, or the admiration-like family affection that had been hidden in his heart for so many years, he had no time to say anything say it.

   Aunt Lydia stopped breathing in front of him and closed her eyes.

   "Why the fuck?!"

Seeing this scene in a daze, Miles felt cold in his heart, but his blood rushed straight to his forehead. His worst fantasy about the future was less than one ten-thousandth of today's. Even if the entire Grand Duke of the West Region has become an empire A buffer zone against Flame, but nothing to do with them who are at the rear.

  Although the prices are a bit more expensive, most of the expensive ones are sublimation materials, and the food of ordinary people has not been affected much.

  He originally thought that his future would gradually improve, that he would gradually rise to the top, lead his mother to live a good life, and repay the kindness of those who helped him bit by bit... He originally thought so, and he originally hoped so.

   But hope is the easiest thing to dash.

   "Why, they are all good people, but why do such good people have to die... What happened in the city?!"

The man held the sword tightly in his hand. He looked around the entire Azure City, and he could already hear the screams and roars that gradually became noisy, as well as the faint roars coming from the other side of the street—the abnormal madness just now was just a prelude, and real chaos was about to emerge up.

And at this moment, Miles' condition was not very good. Seeing Lydia's family, who was deeply grateful to him and treated him like a real grandmother, died in front of his eyes, bursts of scarlet lights began to light up in his eyes. The halo, and the expression became more ferocious and crazy.

   It's just like those crazy weirdos before...even more terrifying than them.

  "Grandpa? Grandma...Dad...Woo...Mom..."

   "What happened to me just now?"

But at this moment, the crying of the little girl Cynthia knocked Miles out of the abnormal state—he regained consciousness, and felt incredible about the pain and despair that suddenly overflowed from his heart just now... He was indeed still very Sad, but not to the point of wanting to destroy the world.

   It felt like someone else's emotions had spilled out of nothingness and infected him.

   "Someone! Cynthia, don't cry, you can't help but keep your voice down, let's go first!"

  Hearing the noisy footsteps from the side street, the man ignored other things for a while, with his mother on his back and the little girl in one hand, he quickly hid in the usually deserted alley.

  …

   Terra 773, September 18, late at night.

  The Setar Empire, the Grand Duke of Sorin, and the Viscount of Avak.

   Azure City.

Azure City, as the name suggests, is where you can see a piece of blue sky - when the second Viscount Avak established this city and developed the middle and deep mineral veins in the hilly area, because he looked up and saw the endless blue sky, he chose this color Name the city.

After the mine veins were exhausted, the city gradually transformed into a light industrial city with small workshops. Many baskets, rattan frames, furniture, tables and chairs in the territory of Grand Duke Sorin were all processed here. They are not rich or famous, but People have a high sense of stability in their lives.

  But this recognition of a peaceful life is used by the big shots as a shield to deceive people.

  When the convoy arrived at the edge of Azure City, Ian, who was overlooking the city through a drone, was already frowning.

   "This place... has completely become a dead city."

   He mutters to himself as everyone else watching the drone footage nods in agreement.

  At this moment, the moonlight is dim, but there is no light in the city. The streets are full of corpses and blood, as well as various broken small objects, as well as the remains of the overturned carriage and the corpses of horses.

  The buildings on the side of the road and the doors and windows close to the street were all smashed. Even the street lamps were mostly injured, or bent, or fell down, and the air was filled with a layer of strange white mist, which clouded the vision and made the drone have to get closer to see the scene on the street.

More than that.

  Ian even saw, on the streets deep in the city, there were still faint human figures swaying... and those figures were undoubtedly the 'undead' in the world of Terra.

  To be precise, it is a fungal organism formed after the relatively complete human remains that have died long ago have been controlled by decaying fungi.

  The Azure City, which used to be peaceful and quiet, has now become a gathering place for dead bodies.
