Let me live [Quick Transmigration]

Chapter 49 Hopeless Love

----

After a few seconds of silence, in response to the question from the Road to Hades, a thin figure turned from the door.

The time flow of the game is different from the reality. The half day that Lu You was passively offline and then online has probably passed many days in this instance.A woman turned into a monster, and Eric seemed to have experienced a serious illness, and he was so thin that he lost his shape: his face was pale, his eye sockets were sunken, and he had a head of withered yellow grass-like hair. The oversized clothes gave the effect of a straw wrapped in a sack; the thin neck protruding from the neckline had pinched bruises, and gauze and tape were stuck to the face.

He was filthy all over, holding a garden shovel in his hand, the trousers of his rubber shoes and overalls were covered with dark green mud, and the large dark yellow spots on his shirt seemed to be bloodstains that hadn't been washed.

Before Eric left the mermaid's room that day, he had promised him hope that he would help him find a way out.I don't know what happened after that, maybe the attempt to let the mermaid go was discovered, maybe the father's usual abuse of him escalated again, Eric's wounds increased, and his mental state was one step closer to collapse .In the depths of his cowardly eyes, there was still a little light, but now that light has disappeared, but there is a new kind of emotion that is almost frantic.

Before the Road to Hades noticed someone at the door, no one noticed when he came... Last time, Lu You didn't hear footsteps in the corridor before he unlocked it with the key.

"What are you going to do to him?" Eric said sharply—"sharp" by his standards, but it still seemed lacking in momentum—and raised his gardening shovel to Road to Hades, who was holding a mermaid.The shovel was also covered with dark green mud, it was estimated that he was doing some work in the garden just now, "Put him down!"

Before Road to Hades responded, Pig Iron Boiled Water yelled first, "Hey... we are asking you this question, right?" He was quite dissatisfied with Eric's questioning, and immediately threw the questioning back with a more aggressive attitude , "Why is there a mermaid locked here? Did you do it? Also, those monsters, aliens, synthetic beasts we met on the first floor..." He stepped forward, making Eric reflexively Backing away, the shovel that was originally pointing to the road to the underworld was also retracted and blocked in front of him, "It's all disgusting! I was just trying to find out the people who did those perverted things and ask them. Could it be... it's you Doing illegal alchemy experiments here?"

"What... I'm not..." Eric saw the mermaid fall into the hands of a stranger, and the little courage that rose up in his anxiety and anger was easily frightened away by the pig iron boiling water.He was originally a cowardly and timid character, so he lost his initiative and stammered to defend himself.The guest next to him, Menghui, took advantage of the situation and asked, "If it's not you, who else could it be?"

Eric was stunned for a moment, but he recovered in time, and they didn't get the answer so easily.He pursed his lips tightly and raised the shovel again, "Who are you guys? Why are you here?"

He was busy confirming the status of the mermaid just now, and now his eyes finally fell on the pair of corners protruding from the black hair of Road to Hades.This obvious demonic feature seemed to make Eric misunderstand something, and made him tremble, "He was...has he been sacrificed?" There was a hint of sob in his voice, but the shovel in his hand was still Holding it awkwardly and stiffly, "You can't...you can't take him away..."

"Did you destroy the magic circle under the water tank?" Road to Hades asked suddenly.

Eric swallowed. "I... I changed a material." He said bluntly, as if he had lost the courage to lie and cover up, "I don't know if it will work... just try it..."

Ke Meng turned her head, exchanged a look with Road to Hades, and then looked at Eric again. "Please don't be nervous, he was not summoned by the sacrifice." Ke Menghui said gently, "We came to this nursing home just to find a person who disappeared many years ago. He used to work here..."

He took a few steps towards Eric, and this time Eric did not back away, "This sanatorium has long been abandoned from the outside, we were attacked by monsters when we entered, and found that someone used it as a place for biological refinement and demon offerings." A place for sacrifice." Ke Menghui asked tentatively, "You don't seem to agree with these practices... Are you threatened or restricted by some force, and are you working for that person?"

Eric's hand holding the shovel stabilized a little, but he still didn't let it go. "Who... are you looking for?" He didn't answer Ke Menghui's question, but instead asked.

"Jude——we're here to find Jude." Pig iron boiled water and hurriedly replied, "He's blond, around 20 years old..." After Ke Menghui turned his head and gave him a glare, he reluctantly gave up playing around, right With a positive expression, "a woman named Frieda came here just now, she said Jude is dead. Do you know this person?"

"Jude..." Eric repeated the name in a low voice, and finally put down the garden shovel.His mood seemed to calm down all of a sudden, and his expression was no longer so shy. "I didn't know there was such a person." He whispered, "Frieda is lying to you. She likes to scare people the most... You have to escape from here quickly. If Frieda finds out, this The monsters in the nursing home will gather soon, and that person..."

Deep-rooted fear made Eric hesitate, but soon he showed determination. "I can buy you some time," he said, "but you have to do one thing for me."

"If you want to escape with the mermaid," Road to Hades didn't know what dissatisfaction with Eric, although the tone was polite, but the tone was a bit cold, "we had planned to do so."

"Really... that's good..." Eric didn't care about his attitude, and murmured, "Thank you." He raised his hand and pointed in the direction Frieda came from, "The one at the end of the corridor There is a secret door in the room, you can go to the second floor from there, and then leave through the window. Remember, don't go back to the first floor, and don't go to the third floor, or you will die...I can only fight for about 10 minutes Please run away quickly." After saying this, he didn't take another look at the people in the room, turned around immediately, and quickly ran towards the other end of the corridor as if he was afraid that he would regret it. .

"Hey, wait, I still have something to ask!" The pig iron boiled the water and shouted, and ran to the door, "The sacrifice you just said..." He went out, only in time to see the tall and thin man The figure disappeared at the corner of the corridor. "Damn," he patted the door frame dejectedly, "that kid runs too fast..."

"Let me remind you," Ke Meng replied, "that door frame was pushed through by Frieda just now..." Seeing the pig iron boiling water withdrew his hand like lightning, Ke Meng smiled back and turned to the road to the underworld. "That person... Eric, he said he can't go to the first and third floors?" He asked, "Is this a reminder that we should investigate, or is it a death warning for the dungeon?"

"The monsters in this dungeon aren't strong..." Pig Iron boiled water and said, shaking his hands, "What does the underworld think?"

"You can kill, there will be no danger." Road to Hades replied, "Go to the second floor first." He walked outside the door... This time, he still only took one step, because he was very quiet during the whole process just now. The mermaid tugged at his clothes suddenly. "What's wrong?" He lowered his head and asked, the mermaid pointed at his back, he turned around, only saw the broken glass jar.

"Hmm..." Road to Hades pondered the meaning of this move for a while, thinking he understood, "That can't be taken away." He persuaded, "When we go out, you can go back to the river. If you If you prefer a glass tank, I can also..."

Lu You raised his hand expressionlessly, and pressed it to his face with a "slap", pushing him to turn to look at the ground on the side of the glass jar.He also only discovered it when he was moving on the road to the underworld just now. There was a flash of light different from glass shards in the shallow water.The road to the underworld took a few steps closer before he saw that he controlled the little snake turned from black blood to swim through the air, bit the thing and brought it back.

Lu You used both hands to hug him, and when Lu You saw the little snake swim up to him, he stretched out his hand to take what it brought back: a copper key.What surprised him was that the surface of the key was already rusted, and it would not reflect light even if it was held in the hand like this, let alone underwater... Lu You turned it over, and the gleam of light flashed again, revealing the key. The other side of the key still had the same dull color.

Hmm... Is this some kind of hint given by the game to the quest items?

But the road to the underworld doesn't seem to be seen... Lu You thought for a while, and had to attribute this anomaly to the system that can't make a sound again.He held the key, and the road to the underworld led him to the door, and finally he went out smoothly without encountering any obstacles.The two teammates who were closer to the door gave way to Road to Hades, allowing him to walk ahead and open the way.

The little snake rubbed against Lu You's finger, and then turned into tiny blood beads again, and the blood beads expanded into thin slices with sharp edges like knives, flying away like pitch-black butterflies, guarding the group of them. around.

Although Eric said "buy time for them", the copy does not seem to be intended to allow players to achieve their goals too easily.When they walked towards the room at the end of the corridor, a curious creature with a body like a monkey and a head like a mosquito quietly crawled over from the ceiling, trying to sneak up on it from behind.It, as well as the waves of miscellaneous fish monsters that tried to attack afterwards, ended up similar to Frieda's tentacles: before they got close enough to attack, the "butterflies" controlled by the Road to Hades would swarm away and fly away leisurely. Back, leaving a field of blood in the corridor behind them-creating a veritable "Road to Hades".

Lu You glanced back over the shoulder of Road to Hades, and then kept his eyes firmly forward.He looked at his nails, evaluated his attack power, plus that pathetic ability to move on land... Realizing that in this dungeon, the greatest contribution he can make is probably to just wait and not make trouble up.

So he nestled in the arms of the road to the underworld, and tried hard all the way... Finally, when he reached the room at the end of the corridor, he successfully retracted the disobedient nails, and solved one, probably this one too. The only threat in the dungeon that could harm the road to Hades...

That room was probably Frieda's bedroom, and the furniture was spread out so that her deformed body could easily pass through.There are a lot of translucent gray things piled up in the corner of the room. The pig iron boiled water wanted to lean over to study it, but Ke Menghui, who saw that it was Frida's fleshy whiskers that had shed their skin, quickly pulled them away.

They spent about 6 minutes in this room, found the key from the chandelier, used the key to open the hidden drawer under the bed board to find the safe, and used the water mist (Ke Menghui boiled a pool of water with a spiritual arrow) to see the soap The password written on the mirror, another key in the safe finally corresponded to the secret door disguised as a dressing table. "It's been a long time since I played this kind of secret room game that makes people think that the owner's mind is abnormal..." Ke Menghui said as he climbed up the passage, his tone was quite nostalgic.

This time it was the back of the Road to Hades, and Ke Menghui walked in the front, illuminating it with the light of spiritual arrows.At the end of the passage, he confirmed that there was no sound outside, carefully opened the door, and stepped out... When he stepped on the ground, he immediately felt an abnormal soft touch.

The walls and floor of the second floor are as gray and white as Frida's whiskers, seemingly flat, but the texture is like some kind of boiled soft skin, which will be slightly dented under the feet, and the moist substance inside has been squeezed the sound of.Ke Menghui took a few more steps to test, and came back with a weird face, while shaking the goose bumps on his arms, he signaled his teammates to be safe for the time being.

The exit of the passageway is the end of a corridor, so they don't have to choose the way forward.Several people walked forward along the empty and quiet corridor, with gray walls on both sides. It was not until halfway through that the first door appeared.As the road to Hades stopped at this door, Lu You also saw the number on the door plate.

The small sign with gold letters on a black background clearly read: 301.
