Campfire Shelter

Chapter 70 Retreat

I don’t know when water mist began to fill the castle, and gurgling sounds from unknown sources were heard in the mist. When Colin and others rushed to the second floor of the castle, they immediately saw the old butler and his team fighting.

At this moment, the old housekeeper and others were protecting Helena and others behind them, fighting against the special type of "lycanthropy" patients who crawled in from nowhere.

Colin didn't say anything after he came up. He directly hit the fatal parts of the "lycanthropy" with a few bullets, and then cooperated with other people's attacks to quickly complete the harvest.

"What happened?" The old housekeeper frowned and kicked a piece of soft and wriggling intestine that had fallen nearby.

"I don't know, I can only tell you, don't eat anything from now on."

Colin shook his head. He was very hungry now, but he was still under control.

After saying that, he glanced out the window of the castle and found that the outside was shrouded in white mist and no one could be seen. However, there were faint screams from both inside and outside the castle.

Apparently, the tragedy didn't just happen here.

And what made him palpitate the most was that amidst the gurgling sounds, some white mist in the distance seemed to be transforming into a blue-black haze.

For a moment, Colin felt that these green and black hazes were like digestive juices in the stomach, and they were like the food that had been swallowed and was in the process of being digested.

Without thinking much, several shadows suddenly flew out of the window. They were scarlet intestines like nooses. Colin raised an iron sword he had picked up before with his right hand and chopped off the intestines with a wave of his hand.

At the same time, several heavy footsteps came from the bottom of the castle amidst the sound of "dong dong dong", making everyone on the second floor clearly feel that the ground beneath their feet was shaking.

"It's another large-tonnage 'lycanthropy'."

Colin squinted his eyes. These special types of "lycanthropy" were very troublesome to deal with. The intestinal attack range of each of them was at least ten meters.

It is also extremely flexible and automatically searches for enemies. It can send out more than three intestines at a time, and cutting off the intestines has no effect. If it is accidentally strangled and dragged back, it will immediately become the owner of a restricted screen, which is terrible to watch.

What makes Colin even more troublesome is that the mist is getting thicker. Even in the castle, people start to blur beyond ten meters.

But it’s not without good news – there are still more than three hours left.

As long as you get through these three hours, everything will be fine.

At this time, Calder on the side yelled: "No, we can't stay here. This place is too foggy, too closed, and has many entrances. If more 'lycanthropy' surrounds us, we will die sooner or later if we continue to stay." !”

"Where are you going?" the old housekeeper asked.

"My suggestion is to build a basement that is strong and these monsters cannot easily break through. There is only one long and narrow entrance. If we stick to that entrance, we can hold on for at least half a day."

Before he could finish speaking, Colin's voice suddenly sounded, interrupting him: "No, go to the roof!"

"Rooftop? Are you sure?"

Colin glanced out the window. The lower areas were already covered in water mist, and his bowels kept rumbling: "The higher you go up, the lighter the mist becomes. If you stay in this mist for a long time, problems will still occur."

After saying that, Colin did not wait for their consent and rushed towards the stairs in one step, followed closely by Duncan, Helena and others.

The castle has five floors in total and is very huge. It is the second largest building in Black Rock City after the church building. It is also one of the points where several bonfire pillars are erected in Black Rock City.

Colin's action was quite smooth. After quickly solving several "lycanthropy syndromes" through time-stopping, he went all the way up to the top.

Fortunately, there seemed to be no lycanthropy syndrome caused by the soldier's transformation above his head, and his field of vision was restored as the water mist disappeared, and then he saw the soldiers guarding the top floor.

They also had problems here, but they were not serious and have been dealt with.

After reaching the top of the building, Colin discovered that the water mist became less and less as it went up. This was probably related to the bonfire that lit up the whole night. There was almost no fog near it.

At this moment, Colin breathed a sigh of relief and knew that he was finally in the right place.

The top of Black Rock City Castle is also very spacious, enough to easily accommodate the activities of thousands of people. There is also a bonfire pillar with a total height of more than 100 meters in the middle.

The top of the fire pillar is inlaid with a larger red flammable crystal. The fire produced by the crystal makes fog disappear in a large area around it.

At this time, after coming up, he didn't talk too much and started to defend on the top of the castle with everyone.

When there is fire to drive away the fog, the field of vision is clear, and the flying intestines no longer pose much of a threat. After all, the farther away from the main body, the less flexible it is.

But as time went by, some "lycanthropes" seemed to finally be unable to sit still, and began to rush out from around the water mist, fighting with their own bodies, and everything began to become more and more difficult.

"call"

Colin waved his numb hand and cut off a second-stage "lycanthropy" from the waist, and then fell into a trance.

The continuous ultra-high-intensity fighting for an hour or two made him a little unbearable.

Beside him, the old housekeeper, Kalder and others all had a lot of injuries. The hands holding up the swords were shaking violently, and even the hilt of the swords was starting to become a bit uncontrollable.

As for the others, they suffered even more heavy casualties. There were originally hundreds of soldiers on the roof, but now only one or two hundred were left.

"Sir Colin, do you think someone will come to support you soon? Is it too late?" The old butler couldn't help but speak after he and others worked together to kill a fat second-stage "lycanthropy".

At this moment, they had no idea what was going on outside the castle. They could only judge from the fewer and fewer screams and the increasing number of enemies that the situation might not be good.

However, before Colin could answer, a deafening noise suddenly came from the distance, and immediately after, a picture appeared clearly or vaguely in everyone's mind -

A huge arm reached out from under the ruins.

Its skin was a bluish-black color with a stone-like texture. It was abnormally long and grotesque, like a human hand that had been stretched many times, and was more than ten meters long.

And with its appearance, an extremely terrifying superior aura swept in like a sandstorm, swallowing everything.

Colin and the others, who were an unknown number of meters away, felt their bodies stiffen and their souls seemed to be rushed out of their bodies just because of the arrival of this breath.

Suddenly, Colin's pupils shrank, and a brief future scene of who knows how long came into his head. Without thinking about it, he shouted to everyone with a horrified look on his face:

"Run! Follow me to the other side!"

And less than three seconds after they ran away, a huge blue-black hand suddenly fell from the sky.
