Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 590
At this time, Hai Ri Chagai and I backed up the mute, and the evil creatures around, although they looked like humans, were actually the old den of Huduo.Huyuduo has no other ability, and what he is best at is demagoguery and purification. Right now they can't purify Harichagai and me, and they can't get close to the mute who is being covered by the two of us, so they immediately began to demagoguery.

These things seem to be able to see the most fragile things in people's hearts. Their faces begin to change slowly, and finally all the huduo suddenly disappear like dust blown by the wind. gone.

I couldn't help being stunned, but Harichagai said at this time: "These things are in trouble, be careful, there are only three of us in this place now, and don't believe what you say next." I nodded, and the two escorted the mute to continue to retreat , within a few steps, they arrived at the place where the hub was.

To be honest, I really doubt whether the mute can hold on this time, he looks too weak, the blood all over his body seems to have been radiated, and his whole body presents an astonishing white, pale.And the most disturbing thing is, I stared at his face, and found that the coldness and arrogance he had been shrouding all this time had completely receded, and the whole person gave me an indescribable feeling, as if all the burdens had been lifted, and all thoughts were ashamed. .

This feeling makes me very uncomfortable, always feel like something will happen.At this time, those Hu Yuduo didn't know what kind of moth they were trying to make, and they didn't show up for the time being.Taking advantage of this time, I asked the mute: "What are we going to do now?"

The mute said: "The truth, don't you want to know the truth? The truth is behind."

Behind?

He looked straight at the eight-treasure box in the hub, and said, "You guys cover me for about ten minutes..." After finishing speaking, he put his hand into the hub.I originally planned to see how he would manipulate this hub, but the next moment, the cave suddenly went dark, and the flashlight in my hand went out instantly.

damn it!My heart jumped, and I flipped the switch repeatedly, but the flashlight didn't turn on at all.The battery was replaced not long ago, so it's impossible to run out of power. Could it be that those evil things are at work?This thought flashed through my mind, and I immediately asked Haricha and the mute: "Are you all right?"

No one answered me.

I was startled, and stretched out my hand to touch the side, because Harichagai and I were standing next to the mute, one on the left and one on the right, and I should be able to touch the mute as soon as I stretched out my hand.

However, when he stretched out his hand, what he touched was not a mute, but a furry thing.

"Hiss." I realized what it was, so I withdrew my hand abruptly, but in the darkness, the thing stuck to me. The moment I retracted my hand, it jumped onto my face and scratched it with its claws. My scalp, don't mention how painful it is!

My nose was sore from the pain, and I thought that if the claws of this thing were sharper, wouldn't it scratch my skull?He quickly reached out to pull down the thing on the top of his head. With this pull, the mask on his face became a little loose.Suddenly, I was startled, and suddenly remembered what Harichagai said.

Putting on this mask, those Huduo dare not come close to harm me, and besides purifying, these things are demagogic. Could everything that is happening now be an illusion?If I pull this thing off my head, I won't be able to keep the mask on my face.

Thinking of this, I was startled, endured the pain, pressed the mask with one hand, and pulled the thing on top of my head with the other.Needless to say the pain, the thing was pulling very tightly, grabbing my hair and scalp, I pulled it vigorously with one hand, but it didn't pull it off, on the contrary, it seemed like a bunch of hair had been ripped off.

Immediately afterwards, I felt hot blood flow down my head. That feeling was so clear that it didn't look fake anyway.

But with one hand, I really can't handle this evil thing over my head.If there were two hands, the mask might have to fall off.

This is how to do?
In an emergency, I remembered that I was still carrying a dagger, so I immediately pulled out the dagger and stabbed it at the thing above my head.After this stabbing, I heard a strange hissing sound, and I don't know if I stabbed it to death, but it still didn't let go.

I was in a hurry, and I was waiting to poke again. At this moment, I felt a sudden pain in the important part in front, and all my scared muscles tensed in an instant.Because the thing on my head didn't go away, another cat came out from the darkness. This time, that thing was at my lifeline!
Oh my god, if this is scratched or bitten... Wen Min's tangled face appeared in my mind, and finally turned into a mocking expression of Tofu holding his belly, how dare he delay, and he will go to rescue him immediately, regardless of the top of his head. My lifeblood suddenly reached out and grabbed the thing lying on my lower body, and pulled it out.This thing grabbed my trousers tightly and refused to let go. This time, the loose outdoor pants formed a tent that was propped up, and there was a tearing sound, and then the thing was pulled out.Although I can't see it in the dark, I guess there are only a few strips of cloth left in front of me.

As soon as I pulled it out, my heart was full of anger, and I directly hit the ground, swung the fur of that thing and threw it to the ground violently, preparing to smash its brains.But before I could make a move, several of them rushed over from all directions at the same time. In the dark, I felt that my whole body was covered with furry things, and there was no place where it didn’t hurt. These things scratched my body, scratching my heart in pain. liver.

In desperation, I screamed and rolled on the ground, trying to crush the crawling thing to death by squeezing it.In fact, it is so easy for Hu Yuduo to die, but at this time, the pain is terribly painful, and he doesn't care about thinking so much, everything is completely a subconscious reaction.

After rolling around, I suddenly realized a problem: Why don't these things attack my face?And at this moment, I was in terrible pain, and I could feel the bleeding from the scratched wound everywhere in my body, but I didn't feel weak due to excessive bleeding.

All of a sudden, an idea came to my mind: Are these all fake?The real purpose of these things is to force me to take off the mask on my face?If this is the case, then I must not be recruited!Sure enough, these things gradually climbed up my head, scratched my scalp, and made strange hissing noises. The thing that was lying on my head at first, I stabbed it, but it didn't hit at all. It is to continue to do evil on my head.

During the whole process, I was in so much pain that I couldn’t respond every day, and the ground was not working. Thinking about the scene where the hair was pulled out in groups and the scalp was scratched and pulled by claws, you should be able to understand what I was feeling at this time. Painful.

Almost at this moment, my upper body, including my head, was covered with these huduo, even the flesh on my neck was bitten by big mouthfuls, the pain was very real, and the feeling of blood flowing out was also clear Incomparably, if my body didn't have the slightest sense of weakness, I would almost be deceived.

fake.

I told myself in my heart that all this is false.

I have to hold on, as long as the mask is still there, these things can't really hurt me.

I thought of the dumb, I don’t know what is going on with him now, Harichagai has no problem protecting himself, but how should the dumb protect himself?
I was extremely anxious, my whole body was in pain, and I didn't know when this torture would end. I could only press the mask on my face, tie the rope tied to the back of my head tightly, and use my business strength to resist, so that Ease your own pain.

I don't know how long this state has passed, and I don't know how long it will last. If I keep being trapped like this, wouldn't it be...

Just when my scalp was numb, there was a dull creaking sound in the darkness, as if some heavy stone door was pushed open.Before I could react, I felt a tightness around my waist, and I was surrounded by a hand.

Immediately afterwards, the hand began to drag me back.

I thought of the mysterious hand that pulled my leg before, and my heart tightened. I was about to struggle when I heard a hoarse voice say, "It's me."

I recognized it, it was a dumb voice.

I followed my hand to touch it, and this time I really touched the mute. At the same time, there was a loud bang in the darkness, which seemed to be the sound of the stone door closing. Before I could react, my feet were empty. As if the ground under his feet suddenly disappeared, he suddenly began to fall.

Such a sudden appearance in the dark would scare anyone to death. I almost scolded my mother.

The next moment, I fell to the ground with a bang, and I felt pain in my back, and I didn't know if my ribs were broken.

"Damn it!" It was Harichagai's voice.

At this time, those things that tormented me had already disappeared. Where was there any blood and wounds on my body, everything was just an illusion of tormenting people.I was afraid that when I opened my eyes, I would find that the flashlight in my hand was actually still on, and Harichagai was standing up with his hands on his buttocks, looking around in shock.

At this moment, my eyes are bright, and I see a very vast night sky with stars twinkling in the night sky and the Milky Way hanging upside down.

I blinked, how did this happen, how did I fall outside the tomb of King Juer?

However, when I sat up and looked away, I realized that the night sky was fake.We fell into a place with a large space, and the top of the treasure didn’t know how high it looked. The top was painted black, just like the night sky, and those twinkling stars were all big and small pearls!
hiss.

What a great handwriting!
I got up immediately, only to find that the mute was still lying next to me, in a large shape, motionless. If it weren't for his open eyes and steady breathing, I almost doubted whether he had fallen to his death.
