messenger from the wasteland

Chapter 130 This Will Be a Scary Story
The bonfire reflected the shadows of the rocks beside the camp, and the light and shadows on the ground were somewhat mottled, shaking with the flames.

Facing the flame for the first time, it's a pity that she can't feel the warmth of the flame, maybe even if she puts her hand into the fire, she can't feel anything.

She remained silent after Mann asked her to tell about her past.

"Can't you?" Mann had a regretful smile on his face, but he didn't ask persistently.

"You can't hear it." Chu shook his head, his hoarse voice sounded like a night owl lowing at night.

Mann didn't understand Chu's meaning, why couldn't he hear it, he turned his head to look at Xiang Chu, and was about to say something.

But then, he saw that Chu stretched out a finger to touch his forehead, and a cold touch came from his forehead.

Mann was stunned, and before he realized what he was going to do, he felt his eyes dimmed, as if he had fallen into another world.

When he could see his surroundings clearly again, he found himself in a wasteland, the sky and the ground were blood-colored.

He raised his eyes to look at the wilderness, and then froze in place in a daze.

There were corpses all around, stumps scattered all over the place, and blood soaked the ground.

Among the corpses that fell on the ground, some were people, and some were creatures he had never seen before.They died in different shapes, with either hideous or frightened faces.

They were so unwilling, each of them stared blankly at the low-pressure sky with their own godless eyes.

There was a bloody smell in the air, and it was hard to be thick, as if the air had been soaked in blood, becoming viscous and heavy.

Mann couldn't count how many corpses there were. He only knew that there were tens of thousands of corpses.

His breathing became short of breath, his face was pale and sweat was streaming from his forehead, the corpses on the ground seemed to be grinning at him, and he was alone and helpless.

He has never seen so many corpses, nor has he seen such a terrifying scene. This place seems to be the so-called hell.

At this time, he saw a figure in the middle of the corpse, a dark figure, holding a long black knife in his hand, the blade was dripping with sticky blood.

The figure seemed to have noticed him, and turned around.

It was Chu, Mann recognized Chu's appearance, but it was not Chu, because her breath was so strange, in the oppressive black, there was endless tyranny and ferocity hidden.

Finally, Mann couldn't bear it and took a step back, the world in front of him darkened again.

"what!"

In the real world, Mann by the campfire exclaimed, put his hands and feet on the ground, and sat back a few steps until he leaned against a rock.

"Huh, huh, huh." Mann was sweating, panting heavily.

The surroundings were still quiet, and the bonfire made a faint crackling sound. Fortunately, his exclamation was not loud and did not attract other people in the camp.

Seeing Mann's frightened appearance at first, there was a look of apology on his face, and he said softly.

"Feel sorry."

That's why she said that Mann couldn't listen, and the scene she showed Mann was just a scene of her previous experience in the Apostle Wasteland.

That was when the killing in the wasteland had just started, probably only for a few years. At that time, she was deeply immersed in the killing, her human nature was already distorted, and her heart was full of tyranny and cruelty.

Chu stopped talking, sat by the fire and closed his eyes, as if preparing to rest.

Mann leaned against the stone and panted, the silent night, the dry ground without blood all told him that what he saw just now was just an illusion.

But it took him a long time to gradually calm down.

The boy looked at the messenger sitting by the fire complicatedly, and he understood why Chu told him that he couldn't hear her.But he still couldn't help but recall the scene he saw in the illusion.

What did Chu stand in that corpse? Did she kill those people? Then why did she kill them?

He had too many questions, but couldn't ask any more.Because he knew that he couldn't even bear a single scene of what he experienced for the first time, let alone help share it.

Beside the fire, only the sound of the campfire was left.After a long time, the boy took a shallow breath, stared at Chu and said.

"Chu, one day, I will listen to you finish everything."

Chu slightly opened her eyes, under the reflection of the flames, the black eyes were empty and lifeless, only the lonely flame danced silently.

At the beginning, she didn't answer Mann. In fact, all she could tell him was the wasteland, corpses and blood.She couldn't tell Hillman, she couldn't tell Sakurako, she couldn't tell Robot, she couldn't tell Lawrence.

Because she has taken away their sins and returned what they gave her, they are innocent and have nothing to do with her, and their stories do not belong to her anymore.

"Go to sleep." Chu slowly closed his eyes again: "I have to hurry tomorrow."

Mann looked at Chu for a while, nodded and replied: "Yes."

He lay down by the fire and closed his eyes.

But after a while, he felt something covering his body. It was a black cloak, which was condensed from the first use of evil.

It is indeed a bit cold tonight.

Mann shrunk his body, lay down in the cloak and fell asleep peacefully.Probably this is the reason why he is not afraid of Chu, he believes that Chu is not a villain.

The next day, the soldiers in the camp got up early, and they took Mann and Chu to the city of Hiskama.

The road between the rocks is wide, and the clear and cloudless sky seems far away. The scenery to the west always has the beauty of rough mines, but it is also very dangerous.

Until they saw the city of Hiskama, the fortress among the mountains.

The towering city walls are almost submerged in the clouds so that people can't look up to the top of the city, and the huge city gate occupies the mountain road, so that people standing in front of the city can't help but sigh their insignificance.

After the soldiers communicated, the city gate slowly opened.

I don't know why, after the soldiers in the team passed on what they had experienced, the soldiers in the city always looked at Chu with a strange look.Of course, I didn't really care about it at first.

Mann looked at the city curiously, there were passing soldiers and camps everywhere.His eyes are full of new ideas, everything is as he expected, there are too many things he has never seen before.

They walked all the way to the city, and what the soldiers said seemed to be the city lord meeting them, which made Mann look forward to it even more. This was the first time he had the opportunity to meet such a big man.
