mechanical court

……

Wang Ting, the site of Mirror Gallery.

The destroyed promenade was thousands of meters long and extremely huge. Even if the gray and white ruins remained, one could still see the exquisite beauty of the past.

It's a pity that the gorgeous and mysterious curtain walls and lighting decorations were destroyed to pieces...Simon, Helena, and Leric walked among them, as if they were walking on a pile of rocky beaches, and their feet clicked.

After walking out of the hall of mirrors, there is a winding upward holy white staircase with thousands of steps.

At the end of the stone steps is the former palace of the royal court.

The bedroom suffered irreparable damage, and the upper half was neatly cut in half. The section was smooth and clear, as if it had been cut by a sharp blade.On the left side of the palace lay rotting furniture, most of which were broken into pieces, and occasionally there were two pieces of metal products, which were also waste products that were difficult to recycle.

Most of the interior of the palace is completely empty - all usable items have been swept away by the survivors, and nothing is left for them.

Leric climbed carefully to the highest point, stood there overlooking the entire royal court, and found that most of the buildings below were dilapidated; as if they had been severely run over by something, some were even left with only a pile of stone ruins... Looking at the farther area, the entire city has become a huge no-man's land, and it is doubly desolate under the washing of the heavy rain.

The entire royal city of the Menesian Empire was dead and quiet, without any sound, and the sound of rain washing was faintly echoed; occasionally, a gust of wind would blow the dead branches and fallen leaves covering the ground several times.

"How's it going, did you find anything?" Helena held a small detector and asked towards the left side of the bedroom.

Simon crawled out of the pile of rotten furniture with empty hands, and sighed with regret, "There is nothing... The royal court was ransacked so clean that not even a piece of toilet paper was left. If there is a thousand-year-old sacred artifact, It has already been taken away by other people. There is no point in tormenting like this, and it is easy to attract ghosts, so I suggest retreating."

"No way!" Helena directly rejected his suggestion, "We finally came to the royal court, we can't just leave empty-handed like this! Besides, how could someone find such a secret thousand-year-old sacred artifact casually."

"All right, all right, you have the final say." Duo Meng replied embarrassingly.

boom--!

There was a thunderous roar outside the palace, and the white ash was shaken off the heads of the three people in the bedroom, and the walls that had been blown by the wind every day also seemed to shed their skin, and a large number of debris floated out.

Chapter 125 The Faceless Man

Simon and Helena immediately ran out of the bedroom and looked in the direction of the sound.

Dim light, misty torrential rain, pale roads, the city is as silent as ever, just like a drama with a curtain call.

At the corner of Wangting West District, a woman with pale skin and swollen body appeared at some unknown time, walking slowly towards the bedroom.

She opened her arms and walked slowly towards the three of them. Under the bleak wind and rain, her long black hair spread out, twisting and twisting like countless tentacles.Not only that, but her footsteps were very light, without any sound at all, like a phantom floating in the air.

She was completely naked, with a swollen pale color. Her chest was cut up to her head in a 'cutaway view' by some kind of sharp weapon, and her internal organs were directly exposed to the wind and rain.This woman of unknown origin had black iron chains wrapped around her hands, extending to the depths of the rain behind her, as if she was dragging something.

"What's that?" Leric was just a technical nerd, he had never seen such a formation before, and he almost collapsed to the ground in fright.

"Spectre... is a big guy." Simon stared at the weird figure, fine beads of sweat oozing from his forehead.

"Can we deal with this kind of thing?" Helena's eyes were extremely serious, like a sharp and delicate dagger.

"Don't talk about dealing with it. If you are targeted by this thing, the chance of surviving is lower than that of a sniper rifle headshot,... Hahaha... Just kidding." Simon's pale lips trembled, and he didn't seem to be joking at all.

Woo-! !

Just at this time, a gust of wind blew through the broken window of the bedroom, making a sharp sound.

Leric was startled, and stared at it. As the woman walked forward slowly, the dark cloud, which was deeper than the dark cloud, was rapidly spreading towards the bedroom.The end of the black iron chain on the woman's arm happened to be submerged in the depths of the black clouds in the sky—she actually dragged the thick black clouds, pulling the wind and rain to move together.

"That thing is also a ghost!?" Leric screamed.

"This is a big guy who just appeared recently. Seeing her is equivalent to seeing the god of death. Our world has already deviated from common sense. If it continues to collapse like this, it will sooner or later become a hell on earth." Helen Nan murmured, suddenly With a spirit, he fled towards the exit of the bedroom

"What are you doing in a daze? Why don't you run away!"

"Come on!"

Difficulty was imminent, and Simon didn't care about Leric, a new member at this time. He just reminded him, then took a step, and turned into a blurred afterimage and quickly went away.

"The savages who formed a temporary team are really unreliable."

Seeing the two of them abandoning him and running away like this, Leric felt his chest was pierced by some sharp weapon, and the wind was blowing coldly.

However, he didn't forget to run. Although his speed was much slower than the two, he was trying his best to stay away from the woman behind him.

"Don't come here, don't come here!"

While running desperately, Leric turned his head to observe the situation, and found the pale and swollen figure of a woman staggering along the Royal Court Avenue, still thousands of meters away from him.After confirming that he was still safe for the time being, he bit his lower lip and racked his brains to think of a way out

"There is the river channel of Mirror Lake in front of it. It is raining heavily at the moment, and the current must be very fast. If you jump into the river, drifting along the water may save your life..."

Thinking of this, Leric turned his head and looked behind him again. At this moment, the woman disappeared completely.It was as if no creatures had appeared in the first place, no women, no chains, and no dark clouds pressing over like mudslides.

"call……"

Suddenly there was a heavy breathing sound in front of him, the sound was close at hand, as if it sounded right in front of him.

Lerik was startled suddenly, and hurriedly turned his head.

On the muddy road ahead, the pale and swollen woman was walking towards her, dragging the black cloud.

"Ahhh!"

Lerik screamed, his legs went limp, and his body fell to the ground uncontrollably. His body just smashed the dilapidated drain board, and he fell headlong into the sewer.The whole person was immediately submerged by the turbid water, followed the rushing sewage through the sewer, and drifted towards the upper lake area outside Wangting.

……

In the middle of the night, everything is silent, and darkness covers the world like a curtain.

The city of Ekhtadun was entangled by dark clouds, and the entire sky seemed to be wrapped in a shroud, revealing a strong sense of death.

The empty streets of the city are extremely dark, and with the cold rain, they are like a prison in hell.

However, in the darkness, there was suddenly the sound of someone coughing... In the river near Jinghu Lake, a hand covered in mud suddenly stretched out and grabbed a tree branch hanging down by the river.

After struggling for a while, Leric got out of the water from the difficult position, panting heavily, and crawled towards the river with all his might.

"It's hard to get a life back, but you can't be drowned..."

He motivated himself, hugged the branches tightly, and moved towards the shore little by little.

After slipping several times, Leric, who was almost collapsed, finally climbed to the shore, and without thinking about rest, he gritted his teeth and got into a private house.After confirming that no one was following him, Leric carefully closed the door, and then went limp.

In the dark, he took off his clothes in the room, squeezed away the water stains, wiped his body clean, and hung the clothes to dry in a dry place——After surviving the doomsday for so long, Leric also knew a lot of basic survival knowledge, knowing that wet People are the most susceptible to disease.

After groping for a long time, Leric found a dusty carpet in the bedroom.

"A life-saving blanket!"

Overjoyed, he ignored the dirt, just shook the dust, and wrapped the rug around his body to keep warm.
