Chapter 32 The Pale Daughter

Human voices came from far and near outside the tent.Dominic hurriedly sneaked into Limbo Prison, and at almost the same moment, a doctor in a white coat opened the door curtain.He looked around and his eyes fell on the open medicine chest.

"Strange, why did the box open? Could it be that I forgot to close it?" The doctor said to himself, and closed the box.Dominique is thankful he didn't check the boxes for missing items.

Dominic didn't want to stay for a long time, and Abby didn't know when he would come back, so he quickly returned to the camp of Pullin Company, and slipped into the tent where Chris was like a gust of wind.

"How? Got it?" Seeing him appearing out of nowhere, Chris didn't panic at all.He has long been familiar with it.

Dominique showed him the tonic: "Everything is going well."

"Do you really want to use this?" Chris still hesitated, "It might be life-threatening."

"I'm not an ordinary person." Dominic rolled his eyes, "And I don't use the whole stick."

He unwrapped the cardiotonic package, pushed out half of the liquid in the syringe, and kept half. "I think that should be enough."

He handed the syringe to Chris: "You come?"

Chris asked in a daze, "what?"

"Give me an injection! I dare not!"

He unbuttoned his shirt, exposing his chest: "Hit here."

Shaking his head and muttering "this is insane," Chris plunged the needle into Dominique's chest and pushed in the remaining fluid.

With a bitter face, Dominic let out a "hiss".When Chris pulled out the needle, his body went limp and he almost collapsed to the ground.

"Are you OK?"

Dominique felt his heart jump, and then again, and it beat powerfully, pushing blood to every part of his body.I don't know if it was his illusion, but he seemed to be able to hear the sound of his own blood flowing.

"Chris, come with me!" He took Chris's hand and dragged him into Lingbo Prison.It feels like reaching the top of the mountain after all the hard work, and then helping others to help others, and pulling the friends behind me up.

The surrounding colors faded instantly, and the scenery like a faded old photo told him that they had left the real world.However, the Limbo Prison at this moment is a bit different from what Dominic usually sees. In the faded world, there are all kinds of strange and uncomfortable colors, and the shape is like strands of entangled threads: like a desert Yellow like sewage, green like sewage, red like dried blood... A person walked by in front of him, dragging a long, tangled silk thread of various colors behind him, which represented the mental state of the person at the moment.Fear, anxiety, hatred... Those lines were quickly swallowed by Limbo, like a water stain that was gradually evaporating on the table.The more powerful a person is, the more things he can see in Limbo Prison.Because any actions of human beings—whether on the material level or the spiritual level—will leave traces in Limbo Prison, just like the footprints left by humans when they walk on the earth.

Dominique pulled Chris through the camp and came to the tunnel on the east side of Haitong Town.The army set up a cordon in front of the tunnel, arranged fences, and set up sentries to prohibit anyone from entering.But for Dominic, these obstacles are useless.He kicked down a fence and strutted toward the tunnel.The guard in the real world looked strangely at the fence that he had moved, cursed "damn wind", and moved it back to its original position.

The tunnels in Lingbo Prison were not filled with white mist, but pure blackness, just like any ordinary tunnel.Dominic grabbed Chris's hand, and the two walked in together, side by side.There is no light in the tunnel, even in the real world, you can't see your fingers, let alone in the even darker Limbo Prison.So Chris touched the wall to keep them from going off course.

After vision disappears, other senses become extra sharp.Dominique felt his heart beat stronger and stronger, like an engine working crazily, making him worry that his blood vessels would burst in the next second.The breathing of the two was clearly distinguishable, and Dominic could even hear Chris's heartbeat—from his palm to his own.

In addition to these voices, he also heard an indistinct sound, as if from an old radio that was not tuned to FM.He listened carefully, and the voice gradually became clear, lingering in his ears.

"Here... baptize..." The voice was intermittent, but at least a few clear words could be heard, "I declare... my child... a member of the Great Front... the price..."

Dominique realized that the voice wasn't real, but came directly from his mind, probably some kind of hallucination.

"Dedicated to...a nobler cause..."

This voice was suddenly interrupted, and another voice suddenly sounded.It’s smoother, clearer, full of sadness and anger, and Dominique can almost feel the overwhelming emotion rushing to his face.

"You sold my child to the devil!"

His knees gave way and he fell to the ground.

"Dominic! Are you okay!" Chris held his body and carefully placed him on the ground.

It took a while for Dominic's consciousness to return to his body.He looked around and found that they had left the tunnel and Limbo Prison.He was lying on the hard asphalt road, surrounded by white fog, and his visibility was extremely low. At most, he could only see the grass ten meters away and the sign "Welcome to Haitong Town".

"I'm fine." He panted, "Just... a little tired. It feels like I've swam ten times in the pool. Just take a rest."

He remembered the voices he had heard in hallucinations.That must be an illusion too.He never had that memory.But that voice was so clear and real, as if it happened in real life... No, no, now is not the time to think about that, there are more important things waiting for him to do.

In order to avoid Chris seeing that he was restless, Dominic deliberately asked loudly: "We really succeeded? Is this in the mountains? Haitong Town should be in front."

Chris looked at the end of the white mist, and couldn't see farther with all his eyesight. "Yes. We have passed through the tunnel through Limbo Prison. Haitong Town should be in the center of this area, and we can reach it along this road."

"Then let's go." Dominic stood up, shaking slightly, but quickly recovered.

"You'd better rest for a while." Chris said worriedly.

"It's ok. We can walk a little slower. Besides, I don't want to be in this creepy place. I want to get to town quickly, find a restaurant to eat, and sleep well in bed...if there are still open restaurants and From the hotel."

Chris held out his arm and Dominic took him, taking some of his own weight on top of him.The two headed down the road—they had no other choice.The surrounding white fog obscured everything, and the only thing that could indicate the route was this road.If they strayed off the road, they were likely to get lost in the fog.

After walking for about 10 minutes, an object dimly appeared in the field of vision, but the white mist was so dense that it was hard to see clearly.The two of them speeded up their pace at the same time, and walked towards the hazy object. When they got close enough, they realized that it was a large truck parked on the side of the road with its head facing them, and there was no one inside.A jeep was parked on the left side of the large truck, the door was wide open, and there was a spider web-shaped crack on the windshield. There was also no one in the car.Looking to the right, on the grass not far away, another jeep was turned upside down, with all the glass shattered.

The names and LOGOs of Pullin are sprayed on the bodies of the three vehicles.There are also biohazard signs prominently painted on the compartments of the large trucks.

Dominic's hand holding Chris couldn't help shaking.This truck must be the vehicle that Abby mentioned to transport the virus!They are indeed in Haitong Town!But why is the car parked here?Why is there no one in the car?Where is the driver?What about the experimenter?What about the security guards in charge of the escort?Did something happen to them?More importantly, what about the extremely dangerous virus?

They kept their distance from the big truck, took an arc route around the back of the big truck, and planned to take a peek——

Dominic suddenly felt cold.The door of the truck compartment was open, and the inside was empty, with neither people nor goods.

"Oh my god...the virus container is gone..." Dominic was dizzy, "This is really a fucking biohazard..."

"Calm down." Chris said with a glimmer of hope. "It's possible that the employees of Pullin left with the container. The container may not be big and can be carried with you."

"Why did they leave with the container?"

"Maybe there was an emergency and they had to."

After all, this place is full of weirdness. Perhaps the people of Purin Company were really forced to abandon the vehicle and leave with the container by hand.

"If that's the case, they're probably still here and haven't left — or can't leave," Dominique said. "It's possible they're in town and we can find them."

A voice suddenly sounded from behind.

"Don't move, raise your hands, put your head in your hands, and turn around slowly."

Dominique let out a strange cry of "噫" and almost fainted on the spot.But in the end he survived, according to what the person behind him said, obediently raised his hands in surrender, and slowly turned around.

Three men in body armor and gas masks pointed submachine guns at them.Dominic was shaking like a sieve, and it was not bad that he didn't pass out.Chris is much calmer.At a glance, he saw that the logo of Pullin Company was embroidered on the clothes of the three of them.It's not surprising that security personnel tasked with transporting dangerous viruses are armed to this degree.However, Chris immediately thought of another possibility. The outfits of these three people might also be picked up from the corpses.If it is the latter case, then the situation in the small town must be more serious than imagined.

"Who are you?" asked one of the three. "Why are you wandering?"

"We're not from the town," Chris replied.

"Are you from outside?"

"Yes."

The three looked at each other. "Is the tunnel passable?" one of them asked.He was clearly the leader of the trio.

Chris thought that if they asked that, they must already know that the tunnel was impassable.They tried to leave the town, but failed.

"No. We got in some other way."

The shortest man among the three whispered to the leader, and the leader pointed a gun at Chris and asked, "What's your name?"

"Christian Morrison."

Unexpectedly, the three put down their guns.The short man said in a joyful tone: "Let me just say, he is Ms. Morrison's younger brother. I saw a photo of them together in the CEO's office."

Chris breathed a sigh of relief.It seems that they are all employees of Pullin Company, otherwise it would be impossible to know that there are photos of the siblings in Abby's office.

"I'm Security Director Ignatz March, and this is my colleague Brian Raglan," he gestured to the one of the three who hadn't spoken, "This is researcher Noah H. Te." He gestured to the short man.

"Noah Hurt—Doctor," added the short man.

"Nice to meet you." Chris said sincerely, "You already know my name. This is..." He looked at Dominique, who was still in a state of panic, "This is Dominique Montale , my... partner (partner)."

"Ms. Morrison sent you to the rescue?" March asked.

"That's right. My sister is outside, and there are a large group of people from Purin, the CDC, and the army. But only the two of us managed to get in." Chris briefly introduced the situation outside the mountain, "Haitung What the hell happened to the town? Also, where's the virus container? Is it still safe?"

"It's... not easy to say." March said, "It's not suitable to stay here for a long time, we'd better leave as soon as possible."

"where to?"

"The elementary school in the town. There is an air-raid shelter under there, and everyone is hiding there." March paused, and added, "All the living people."
