Deep in the Living-Chapter 506 - 492 The Stalker
Chapter 506: Chapter 492 The Stalker
Under the skin disguise provided by Wu Wen, the team stealthily approached the park where the corpses were located, using various buildings and alleys as cover.
Every time they passed a trash bin, Mia would drop her rotten matter into it to ensure there were no stalkers behind them. However, there were no encounters along the way.
As long as they passed through the appliance mall in front of them, they would reach the west gate of the park.
However,
just as they passed a TV sales counter, inside the shop that supposedly had its power cut off.
Buzz!
A burst of electromagnetic sound came through.
All the different models of TVs turned on simultaneously, with no intervals, displaying half of a human structure on the screen.
This face on the screen was exactly like the one Luo Di and the others had previously seen on the university campus, which at the time signified the arrival of the Fog Man, but now it was different.
Luo Di was not panicked at all and gently pressed down Mia’s arm that was about to swing her axe.
"There’s no danger, I can feel it."
Luo Di, who had deep encounters with the Fog Man, was already familiar with that feeling, knowing very well that there was no spreading fog ahead, just a simple TV screen.
Indeed,
there was no fog overflowing, but the mouth on the screen started to move.
At the same time,
broadcasts throughout the city streets, radios existing in every household, and TVs also emitted the same static sound.
A highly unstable sound transmitted, it was hard to discern whether it was male or female, and Luo Di and others standing in front of the TV cabinet heard it more clearly.
[Notice]
≮Chef Hunter has reached special requirements in the important scene [Pure White Forest] and has now left the event (all event participants, regardless of when they leave, will wake up synchronously after the videotape projection ends, no need to worry about external physical situations)≯
The announcement ended, the TV turned off, and everything returned to normal.
"Unexpectedly broadcasting to everyone at this time, it seems this person has achieved very special requirements. Although the fog is the main line of the event, the internal of the event is also filled with other opportunities, just like exploration in the Corner is not linear.
I remember [Pure White Forest] was a direction guided by road signs when we got off the train, most people chose to enter the city directly, and Mia, you and I chose to go to [Shiyin Town].
This person probably went to the Pure White Forest alone and stayed until the third day, a very determined and capable guy, him leaving the event in another way is a good thing for us."
Luo Di recalled the situation on the train earlier. This chef appeared to be a very ordinary middle-aged uncle, always snacking on little snacks.
But there was always a meaty smell lingering around him, and upon careful observation, one could even faintly feel a sense of being gnawed on.
Mia leaned against the supermarket window, gazing at the faintly glowing flesh and blood light outside the city.
"Luo Di, didn’t we also miss something in the village? If we had continued to delve into the blood information back then and met certain requirements, perhaps we would have gained more."
"Yes, but the mist is the real main line, and the gains are definitely the greatest. Don’t think about anything else, let’s go."
"Yes."
Creak!
The side door of the appliance mall opened, and across the street was the west gate of the park, the smallest gate corresponding to the dense forest area.
Purposely choosing to enter from here, it’s not easy to expose.
The best situation currently is that the other participants have not yet obtained the information about the park, nor have they completed adapting to the mist.
The two carried the iron bucket and just slipped into the west gate.
Drip!
Blood suddenly dripped down the arm, and Luo Di’s side even had the abdomen cut open.
The mist’s effect suddenly increased, the previously non-attacking mist embodiment unexpectedly attacked again upon entering the park.
Wu Wen’s "father" came to Luo Di’s ear, saying all sorts of filthy words about her daughter, even asking to share her body together, after all, she was the perfect offspring he painstakingly "sculpted".
[Fifteen Minutes]
In the West Gate security room. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
The two Murderers were using their undead properties to repair their bodies, having re-adapted to this higher concentration mist.
And Luo Di had killed that man’s embodiment nearly a hundred times.
Although delayed a lot of time, at least the clue is correct, the increasingly thick fog indicates that the corpses must be in the park.
The next step is to determine the exact location of the buried corpses.
Found the park map in the security room.
Based on the clues collected earlier, it is clearly recorded in the newspaper that the body was dug up twenty meters underground, the ability to dig to such depth is likely due to construction.
Moreover, this corpse, which brought disaster to the entire city, must have had a very conspicuous excavation and burial site, with obvious markings.
Next, you just need to quickly search the park, focusing on the public buildings inside, and you should be able to find the specific burial site.
"Luo Di, should we split up? You and I run a lap as fast as possible, and meet in the security room?"
"You don’t watch horror movies often, do you? Never split up in any situation, even if it takes a little more time, it doesn’t matter, we’ll go together."
"Well then~ I wasn’t going to watch anyway, after all, I’ve always been the one doing the killing. Thinking about it carefully, that’s indeed the case~ I especially enjoy when people split up, hehe."
The final park search had officially begun. The two of them chose to move through the woods where they were less likely to be noticed. For now, it seemed that the entire park had yet to see any other visitors.
It was not long after they left the west gate security room.
A small-sized sports shoe stepped at the entrance,
though Mia had used saprophytic creatures to clean the bloodstains here, this person still caught a scent.
Moreover, entering through the west gate, he appeared unaffected by the thickened fog, walking into the security room naturally.
There were still no bloodstains inside, but he sat down on the chair, extended his tongue to delicately lick the tabletop, savoring that pheromone which couldn’t be completely wiped away.
"Same taste, just like that cola."
It seemed he had somehow located his target, decisively getting up and heading deeper into the park, with a giant creature in tow, tethered by a sturdy pet leash.
Wherever he went,
the fog both surrounded him and parted to a certain degree.
It was as if since the first day he came here, he had already adapted to the fog, or perhaps he simply had no personal concept of fear.
...
[Wenslim City’s Famous People Memorial Hall]
Situated at the highest point of the park, with surrounding cement steps once traversed by many visitors for sightseeing.
The memorial hall was now fully sealed off, its front doors completely cemented over.
Various warning signs were erected around the building, indicating that entry was prohibited and violators would be arrested according to the law. The perimeter was also lined with numerous surveillance cameras, alongside some abandoned police booths.
Such extravagant security arrangements leave little doubt that the remains are surely inside.
Luo Di took less than five minutes to find this place from the west gate, showing no hesitation as he picked up a metal bat to smash through the cement and head inside.
The memorial hall was quite large, divided into several sections.
"This way!"
Luo Di’s affinity with the mist had grown as well, enabling him to sense the direction and density variation of the fog inside, allowing him to quickly determine his path.
Mia suddenly leaned over and whispered a few words in his ear.
Luo Di nodded briefly before continuing deeper.
Numerous passageways were cemented shut along the way, but Luo Di systematically broke through them until he reached the depths of the [Art Exhibition Hall].
The fog’s concentration was at its peak here,
the central platform used for displaying paintings had been dismantled, with clear signs of a cement-sealed hatch on the ground.
Clang!
The metal bat struck heavily, cracking the cement to reveal the soil structure beneath. Luo Di pressed his right hand against it, feeling it carefully.
"It’s just below! Next, we’ll need to dig..."
The depth of over twenty meters would take some time to excavate.
Yet Luo Di remained motionless,
seemingly making the final preparations before facing the remains,
or as if he were waiting for something.
Suddenly.
Boom! With a thunderous crash,
a massive force broke through the sidewall. Mia instinctively drew her axe blade to strike. However, the sharp axe only penetrated halfway into the opponent’s arm, stopped by the dense muscles.
The opponent had an immense body over three meters tall,
with a white hood covering his face, seeping blood and faintly forming an ugly blood face.
He slammed into Mia,
the mismatch in size sent the girl flying, splattering blood, and leaving a dent on the wall behind them.
Just as the giant creature was about to attack Luo Di,
Luo Di had already swung his metal bat,
but the trajectory was strange, not aimed at the giant creature, but in a completely unrelated direction.
Boom!
A shockwave rippled across the ground, dispersing some of the fog.
The bat stopped mid-air, unable to move.
Ten centimeters away, a weak-looking young man with parted blond hair slowly revealed himself from the mist.
A hint of surprise flashed across his face but quickly changed to a normal expression.
"Exposed early, huh?"
