Chapter 155 154: [Forgotten Box Court] An Unexpected Escape Route
The magic circle in his hand has faded from bright red to pink.During this time, Elijah took Sean to all the houses on the farm, but still did not see Angie or Etherine.

This made Elijah involuntarily start to wonder if Angie was around here.

They must have set off for the farm, there is no doubt about it, but it remains to be seen whether they successfully arrived here - after all, according to the current situation, even if Angie and Iserine arrived at the farm early, at least half of it would have been swallowed up by the forest.

Without the protection of the holy lamp, did they discover the anomaly and leave here, or did they just enter the farm and be infected by these "evil breaths"?
Elijah didn't dare to think about it anymore, and could only pray that Anji chose the former.

If so, then she should go back to the hut to join them—

No, Etherine's house must also be surrounded by evil aura.

The more Elijah thought about it, the more frightened he became.Usually he can keep absolute calm, but as long as it is about Angie, the emotions in his heart will unstoppable, interfering with his thoughts.

Gritting his teeth hard, he called out Angie's name as he dragged Sean into the last room they hadn't been to.

No one responded.

This time, Elijah immediately made up his mind, looked at Sean and said:
"Let's go, I don't think the master is here."

Sean hummed, but with some hesitation in his tone, he asked briefly before following Elijah out of the house:
"What will happen if there is no holy lamp?"

"...will be occupied by strange things, very aggressive," Elijah stopped opening the door, and then asked: "We made such a big noise, if the master is infected, he will definitely come to attack us. During this period, have you heard any human-like footsteps?"

"...It doesn't seem to be there," Sean was a little uncertain, "This body is only at the level of an ordinary person, and I can't tell exactly what kind of creature those voices belong to..."

"It's enough, I don't think she's here," Elijah said with a sullen face, but his eyes and tone were extremely firm. "She'll be fine."

Sean nodded silently.He could feel Elijah's hand holding his arm trembling slightly, and Sean's other hand holding the ax was actually trembling a little too hard.

None of them wanted or wanted to think about the possibility that Angie had died.That was someone so important to them that everything seemed insignificant in the face of her safety—including their own lives.

"Let's go, go back to Iselin's house and have a look."

Elijah said, and opened the door.

Sean hummed briefly, and ran into the invisible dangerous fog with the other party again.

As the two ran, the holy lamp continued to illuminate the small space nearby.

The light protects them from the evil aura, but it also reveals their location.From the moment Sean and Elijah went out, the sounds of hoofs galloping and the cries of chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep could be heard endlessly, and the buzzing of bees was also constantly circling behind and around them.

Hearing the rattling sound of running towards them at a high speed, Elijah and Sean skillfully dodged to the side together, and even slashed in the direction they evaded with an ax ahead of time, and they hit some chickens and ducks.

But even though the two had made a prediction in advance, there was still a rabbit rushing over to break through the encirclement.Its small body carried huge kinetic energy, and it hit Elijah's calf with a "boom", knocking him staggering on the spot.

He gritted his teeth and stabilized his body, cursing in his heart why there are so many kinds of animals in this broken farm, and then saw the rabbit whose head was knocked 90° got up again with extremely strange movements, opened its mouth and rushed towards him.

"It's fucking endless——!"

Elijah growled extremely angrily, and raised his ax to strike at the rabbit, but Sean had already made a move before him, kicking it flying.

The sharp ax stopped abruptly a few centimeters away from Sean, Sean immediately understood and took a step back.

This lack of tacit cooperation made Elijah grit his teeth again.He didn't have time to curse, he just pulled Sean to dodge again, and then he saw a strong cow rushing past them.

"The cow you want, go ride it."

Elijah blurted out the sarcasm, which made Sean a little embarrassed, opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

But at this moment, there was a strange crashing sound nearby, mixed with a heavy dull sound, as if something had fallen to the ground.

Sean and Elijah immediately turned their heads to look over there.They didn't try to discuss with each other, and ran over there together, but were harassed by chickens and ducks again, and at the same time, they heard several creaking sounds coming nearby——

The "trees" came over.

The faces of the two of them suddenly turned ugly, and they couldn't help but quicken their pace.

But in the next second, a dark pit appeared in their sight!

Elijah ran ahead.He didn't react in time, his feet slipped, and Sean grabbed his arm just as he was about to fall into the pit.

But Elijah actually tried to shake off Sean at this moment, and hurriedly said something in the other's shocked eyes:
"Get down!"

Only then did Sean react, and he jumped down the cave with Elijah while letting go of his hand.

With two dull bangs, Sean and Elijah landed smoothly.

The cave is not deep, only a few meters high, which is no problem for these two healthy people.

It's just that the ground under their feet is extremely hard and flat.Elijah stomped twice, and immediately realized that it was a ground made of stone bricks, but at this moment, he heard a strange rubbing sound from the ground next to him.

Sean also heard this abnormal sound.Without any hesitation, the two of them turned around and fled to the rear, only to find that there was an extremely narrow corridor there.

The radiance of the holy lamp illuminated the dark stone walls on both sides. They couldn't pass side by side, so they could only run one after the other into this tunnel, and then heard the rapid and heavy rattling sound from behind again.

In the next second, a loud bang exploded behind them.Sean and Elijah looked back while running, and were surprised to see two strange red lights appearing in the white mist.

But at this moment, the group of red light retreated a certain distance, and then moved forward again, with another loud bang.

The entire tunnel trembled slightly amidst the loud noise, and Sean and Elijah seemed to understand now.

They stopped and looked at each other, and then Elijah handed the holy lamp in his hand to Sean: "Take care."

Sean hummed, and cautiously leaned behind him holding the lamp.

The bright yellow lights dispelled the dense white mist, and soon, a black and white bull's head appeared in their field of vision.

Its eyes are glowing red, and there are many strange black lines on its face, but it is obvious: only the head of this cow can enter this narrow tunnel, and its body is completely stuck outside...

Those few thumping sounds just now were caused by it sprinting here.

Elijah and Sean looked at each other silently, and then breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

Although I don’t know what’s going on in this tunnel, but with this “watchdog cow” at the entrance, other animals should not be able to enter for the time being—after all, these things don’t have a high IQ. The reason why they surrounded Elijah and Sean before was simply because they shouted too loudly and the light of the holy lamp was too conspicuous...

These creatures affected by the evil breath seem to be able to see their position through their eyes, and their vision does not seem to be affected by the white mist.

To be on the safe side, Sean and Elijah continued to walk in.

As they went deeper and deeper, the tunnel became wider and wider, gradually allowing the two of them to walk side by side.

The vibration and thud of the cow hitting the wall became very distant.Only now did Sean and Elijah dare to lean against the wall for a rest.

They threw all the mice and bugs left on their bodies to the ground and wiped them out one by one. Then they breathed a sigh of relief and looked at each other wordlessly.

In the warm yellow candlelight, the sweat on Elijah's face and neck was slightly flooded, and his fluffy and slightly curly hair was also drooped due to sweat, looking very embarrassed.

Sean couldn't help laughing, and immediately saw Elijah's eyes froze, and asked with a hostile expression, "What are you laughing at?"

"...It's nothing, it's just that you can still figure out the location of various buildings while we're running around. It's really amazing."

Sean's tone and expression were very frank, but the hostility on Elijah's face did not decrease by half.He stared at the blond boy for a long time, did not follow what the other person said, but said in a bad tone:
"I alone can't let the master leave here safely, so I will take you to run together, that's all."

"Ok, I know."

Sean felt nothing.He has long been used to Elijah's bad temper, and Elijah's behavior is indeed very reliable, which makes him feel that he should have no complaints.

It's just that Sean's mood is inevitably a little depressed.

Angie took good care of his emotions, and even deliberately stood by Elijah when he expressed his dissatisfaction with him, which made Sean very grateful to Angie in his heart.

He is extremely eager to do better for himself, instead of just following Elijah or Angie every day, or dragging Angie to such a dangerous place.

If only I could become stronger...

"Let's go, I don't know where this tunnel leads to, we have to hurry up."

Elijah's voice brought Sean back to reality.He breathed a sigh of relief silently, put all the depression in his heart aside, and followed Elijah to the depths of the tunnel.
