Soul Echo

Blood sputtered from the ground to the wall. Some people died here, and some of the spewed blood fell on the ground, forming a pool of blood.

Nowadays, there is only blood left here, not even half a stump and a broken arm.

The sun shines into this alley through the indented roof tiles. Zhong Ye, carrying a weapon and equipment, walks silently through the alley, light and shadow wandering around him.

The powerful perception ability allows him to react before the aberration finds him, and if it is impossible to stealth, he will directly assassinate the aberration.

In this way, he has gotten quite close to the clock tower.

But the closer you get to the clock tower, the greater the number of aberrations lingering around.

Not only in the streets and alleys, but even some houses have aberrations in them, they are motionless, as if they are dead.

It's just that Zhong Ye knows that they are not only alive, but also alive and well, and their life force is as exuberant as a flaming flame.

They are still breathing, their muscles are still moving, they just don't move.

Ordinary aberrations do not behave like this at all. If only one or two aberrations are like this, it can be explained, but now, not only one or two aberrations have this abnormal behavior, but A dozen or so.

These aberrations not only made such abnormal behavior, but also gathered in this street in large numbers, no matter how you think about it, there is something wrong.

Zhong Ye had an idea vaguely in his mind: a mutant that could command other aberrations appeared among the aberrations!

This is not what happened to Impossible, Amos once mentioned to him that the aberrations are aberrations because they cannot enjoy such favors after receiving the 'gift' of Evil God, The body becomes deformed and loses wisdom.

On the contrary, if you can bear it, you will turn into a 'devil'.

The aberration itself represents infinite possibilities, and the ability to control other aberrations is not impossible.

Reciting this, Zhong Ye took a deep breath and looked up at the clock tower not far away.

The monster at the top of the clock tower grew bigger during this period, but the shape looked more 'regular' than before.

I don't know when, it loosened the tentacles that wrapped around the hands, and even adjusted the time of the clock.

—afternoon, 13:16.

Zhong Ye withdrew his gaze and drew an arrow from the quiver.

The stealth cannot be continued from here.

The inner Qi flow of the body moves through the meridians of the legs and enhances the strength of the muscles.

The center of gravity sank, the body pressed down slightly, and then suddenly bounced up!

Stomping legs on the wall, sending the heavy body to the roof.

ka-cha!

At the moment when Zhong Ye fell, the tiles cracked, which was especially clear and obvious in this silent street, which alerted the aberrations on both sides of the street, and also alerted a few heads hidden in the house. aberrations.

As soon as his feet touch the ground, the warrior pulls his body forward.

pa! pa! pa! pa! slap——

As the roof tiles continue to shatter, the attention of the aberrations are all drawn, and they see a fast path on the roof. running silhouette.

Like a gust of wind, like a meteor, it flew towards the direction of the clock tower, and the sound became more and more urgent.

After being stunned for a while, the aberrations moved.

"roar!"

One aberration raised its head and roared, as if sending a signal to other aberrations.

Actually the same, when the roar sounded, the aberrations in other blocks turned their heads to look.

The aberration that was left behind by Zhong Ye looked up at the roof, took steps, and tracked away.

They run on the streets, like a river flowing in a river, surging.

—13:18.

The aberrations in front were also attracted by the roar. After discovering Zhong Ye, several aberrations with good bouncing power ran up the roof and stopped in front of Zhong Ye.

Zhong Ye didn't mean to stop, silently raised the bow and arrow in his hand, and drew the bow and arrow.

Even if the shoulder is seriously injured and cannot exert too much strength, every movement will cause severe pain... None of this can stop Zhong Ye's progress, and it is not a reason for him to stop.

The bow is like a full moon, then the arrow is like a shooting star——

An aberration shaped like a giant mouse stood in front of Zhong Ye, neighing, but an arrow suddenly shot The attack, when it opened its mouth, pierced through its head.

giant mouse The aberration died instantly, the tense muscles immediately softened and lost strength, the limbs were spread to both sides, the foot slipped, and it slipped off the roof, fell into the aberration group, and was trampled by them into minced meat.

The warrior continued to move forward, jumped up suddenly at a certain moment, turned his body in the air, and pulled out a glass bottle from his pocket with his backhand.

Just after he jumped, the roof burst open, and a bloody mouth wide open like a sacrificial bowl emerged from the hole and closed suddenly.

Zhong Ye twisted to the ground, ejected, and instantly crossed a house.

ka-cha!

The esophagus of the aberration body squirmed, and there was a faint sound of glass breaking, and immediately, high temperature and flames spurted out!

The flames rose proudly behind him, but Zhong Ye's eyes were only of the towering tower.

There are still two long streets away from the clock tower. Suddenly, a strong wind blew, and the body of an eagle and the aberration of a human head shot out from the shadow of a side alley.

Zhong Ye rolled his eyes, pulled his gaze to the corner of the eye socket, and caught a glimpse of the aberration.

Kick with both feet, twist the body, pull out a blade light from the straight knife that is unsheathed, divide it into two with its own power, turn the wrist, and the blood stained on the knife will be swept away. The shock fell, and the sword was immediately returned to its sheath.

From start to finish, Zhong Ye's footsteps never stopped.

—13:26.

Boom——

The aberrations also seem to find it difficult to stop Zhong Ye's footsteps, and they directly tore down several houses on his way, leaving him with nowhere to go.

Running to the roof of the only remaining fruitful house, Zhong Ye kicked the soles of his feet, jumped high, and took out a few arrows from the quiver.

At this moment, several aberrations that had been in ambush for a long time also jumped up, all of them stretched out their claws and opened their huge mouths, trying to kill Zhong Ye here.

The bowstring is drawn, the bow body is bent, the warrior's body is turned in the air, but the arrows on the short bow are like precision-guided missiles, and each shot pierces each end accurately and without error. Aberrations are at stake.

At this short distance, the kinetic energy attached to on the arrow is almost complete, even if their vitals are hidden under the tenacious skin and strong muscles, they will be penetrated by the arrow.

Zhong Ye stepped on the corpse of an aberration body, and with the help of the aberration body's remaining energy when jumping upwards, he jumped up again, and the body fell to the ground with a bang, smashing a pit into the ground.

The aberrations watched as the human swept through the sky and landed on a distant roof.

Bend her legs and pop out instantly.

Throwing off the short bow and unfastening the quiver, Zhong Ye drew a musket from behind, moved his ears slightly, then slowed down and lowered his muzzle.

Two tentacles shot out from the window of the house under their feet and went around the roof. The aberration did not know where the enemy was, so they simply swept the tentacles and took off all the roof tiles.

Zhong Ye jumped slightly, and her body continued to move forward under the inertia.

There is an alley between the house below and the opposite house. In the alley, there is an aberration who seems to have been waiting for him for a long time.

The aberration stretched its neck and bit its head upwards, but saw a bright flame in his eyes, and his consciousness immediately plunged into darkness.

The body fell, Zhong Ye pulled the bolt, filled another paper shell into the barrel, and continued to run forward.

—13:29.

Bang!

Another white smoke rose from the muzzle, and another aberration died.

Zhong Ye, who had penetrated through the gaps in his tentacles, fell backwards, grabbed the gun barrel with his left hand, and turned his right hand into a phantom, quickly reloading bullets.

Most of the aberrations were left behind by him, but the closer you got to the clock tower, the more aberrations there were.

Those monsters were densely packed on the streets, like a sea of ​​wriggling meat, looking extremely disgusting.

Clang——

The bronze bell inside the bell tower was rang, and the grand and majestic sound spread loudly.

It is now - 13:30!

It was at this moment that a beam of light shot up from the distant city and hit the top of the clock tower, and half of the deformed body suddenly exploded.

Zhong Ye saw that the hundreds of aberrants around him were stunned for a moment.

——Opportunity!

Zhong Ye retracted the musket with his backhand and ran towards the clock tower.

Arriving under the tower, he not only did not stop, but also accelerated a bit.

The soles of the feet were imprinted on the outer wall of the tower, and the body was pulled up.

Body close to the wall, Zhong Ye ran on the wall perpendicular to the ground and launched a final charge towards the distortion at the top of the clock tower.
