The Last Alchemist

Chapter 158 The Smell of a Living Person

The underground waterway is very dark, like a thick ball of ink that cannot be dissolved. It's also very quiet here. Apart from the sound of running water, the only sound left is the occasional "squeak" of rats in the sewer.

In this quiet environment, the conversation coming from the front was very clear. Not only Rosen heard it, but Lilith also roughly understood the content of the conversation in the distance.

Even though she was separated by a thick quilt, Rosen still felt her heartbeat beginning to accelerate.

He quietly retreated to the narrow corridor before, leaned into Lilith's ear, and whispered in a low voice: "Are you scared?"

Lilith nodded slightly: "A little nervous."

The content of the conversation was terrifying, and her voice didn't sound like an ordinary person. The two guys walking in front of her were most likely monsters, and they were also man-eating monsters. The surrounding environment was as dark as ink, and what made her even more guilty was that she was weak. , without any power to protect itself.

Although Rosen's fighting ability is good, the sewer is the monster's home field. In such an environment, one against two, the outcome is unpredictable.

If they are caught by the other party, there is a high probability that they will be used as food by the monster and eaten alive.

This way of death was so tragic that just thinking about it in her mind made the hairs on Lilith's body explode uncontrollably.

Rosen's back also felt a little chilly. He was not afraid of the two monsters in front of him, but felt that the surrounding environment was really weird, as if it was an underground city.

Since it is a city, there are likely to be residents, but who in the right mind would live in such a ghostly place?

‘My guess must not come true, otherwise my life will probably be lost in this stupid place. ’

At this moment, Rosen discovered a new situation.

"Listen, the voices of those two guys are getting closer and closer to us. Now they are only about 30 meters away from us."

Lilith took a slow breath and suppressed the fear in her heart: "The five senses of monsters are very sharp. It is not safe for us to hide here. Otherwise, we hide behind, maybe they are just passing by."

"You have a point."

Rosen retreated along the way he came. He really didn't want to conflict with these two monsters, because the weapons he carried were quite noisy, and he was not familiar with the conditions in the underground sewers. If he used them rashly, it would be easy to scare the snake away. Attracting more monsters would be a headache.

He retreated softly, until he retreated about sixty or seventy meters before stopping.

Then, he gently placed Lilith on the aisle behind him, reached out and pulled out the large spiral spray hanging on his belt, and with his left hand took out a flash bomb from the package, a silver powder bomb specially designed to deal with monsters.

Among them, the silver powder bomb was placed on the left hand side, and the flash bomb was held directly in his hand. As long as the situation changed, he could bite off the tab and detonate it as soon as possible.

After making preparations, he squatted on the ground, raised the large spiral spray gun with his right hand, and looked at the exit of the corridor in front of him with full vigilance.

The two monsters walked all the way, and soon they reached the entrance of the corridor, and then the footsteps began to fade away again.

Rosen kept listening to the movement ahead. When he discovered this situation, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, I'm just passing by."

Lilith also heard it, and she also let out a sigh of relief, and her tense heartstrings relaxed. After relaxing her guard, she felt a strong sense of exhaustion welling up in her heart, and her eyelids became a lot heavier.

At this moment, a "whoosh" sound suddenly came from the entrance of the corridor, and then the hoarse voice like glass rubbing suddenly sounded: "George, do you smell something?"

"What's wrong?" a high-pitched voice sounded.

The sound of "whisping" breathing sounded again. After a few seconds, the hoarse voice sounded again, with a hint of excitement in the voice: "Hiss~~~ There is the smell of living people, very fresh, there was a living person staying here just now!"

After hearing his words, Rosen couldn't help cursing secretly: "You really have a dog's nose."

As soon as he had this idea, a high-pitched voice immediately sounded: "Is there really a living person? Let me smell it."

He began to inhale loudly, and Rosen could almost imagine this guy raising his head to inhale.

After about five or six seconds, a high-pitched voice suddenly sounded: "Sure enough, it smells like a living person. It's really strange. Why are living people coming to the dark city?"

‘Dark city? ’ Rosen was shocked and had the urge to hit a wall.

Since it is called a dark city, it means that it is a huge underground world with many monster residents hidden there. What's even worse is that he has no idea where the underground waterway goes. If he walks forward randomly, he might end up walking into the monster's lair.

There is no difference between doing this and committing suicide.

When he was thinking this, he suddenly felt Lilith's body trembling slightly behind him. Apparently, Lilith also thought of a similar situation.

At the entrance of the corridor, the two monsters came back and finally stopped at the exit of the corridor.

The hoarse voice continued: "Never mind it. George, this is a living person, with hot blood and delicious meat! They must be nearby. Should we just let him go?"

Although the quality of his voice is different from ordinary people, anyone who hears his voice can feel a kind of "fascination and fanaticism". This monster seems to have an abnormal love for living people.

The owner of the high-pitched voice who was called George seemed to be a lover of living flesh and blood. He was convinced immediately: "Well~it is indeed a very rare living person. It is much more delicious than those cold corpses. Since the other party has It has come to our mouths. If you don’t eat it, you will be really sorry for God’s gift.”

"Then let's chase them now?" the owner of the hoarse voice immediately said.

"No hurry, no hurry, we have to decide first, how to divide it after catching a living person."

"Okay, how do you want to divide it?"

"How about the old rules, cut it in half from head to tail, half for each person, I'll take the left and you'll take the right"

"No, I'll take the left and you'll take the right. The heart of a living person is a very rare and precious thing. I was the first to discover their smell, and the heart should belong to me!"

The owner of the shrill voice, George, was angry and shouted: "Hey~ Louis, are you itching again? Didn't I hurt you enough last time?"

The owner of the hoarse voice, who was called Louis, began to sneer: "George, why do you always mention the past. I'm 40 pounds fatter than half a month ago. Do you think you can still be my opponent now?"

"Why don't you try it?"

"Let's try it!"

After a few words, the exit of the corridor was quiet for about three seconds, and then the roars of the two monsters suddenly sounded. After a few seconds of roaring, there was a "bang bang bang~" sound of fists and claws colliding.

The two monsters started fighting.

Rosen was speechless for a while. He whispered to Lilith: "Do you think one of these two idiots will be beaten to death?"

Lilith obviously had not seen many scenes of rogues fighting: "I don't know, but it seems that their brains are not very good. If they fight too hard, one of them may really die before it ends. Otherwise, we take this opportunity to retreat?"

"Good idea."

Rosen quickly put away his weapon, turned around, picked up Lilith again, and walked back to the previous entrance.

As he walked, he listened attentively and paid attention to the battle behind him.

"Bang~Bang~Crack~Crack~"

The fierce fighting sound continued to come, and after about 2 minutes, a hoarse voice suddenly roared: "George, you are so cruel!"

"You are not cruel! You have torn off half of my skin!"

"The skin will grow back after being torn off, but you actually went to my eyes! Okay, okay, if you don't hold back, I will have no scruples!"

"Bang bang bang~Puff~"

The fighting sound suddenly became several times more intense, with a few screams and cries from time to time. The battle lasted for five or six minutes. The shrill voice suddenly let out a shrill scream, and then the underground sewer became silent, leaving only an unusually heavy breathing sound.

This sound lasted for more than ten seconds, and a hoarse voice sounded: "Bah! With this little ability, you dare to snatch a living heart from me, you deserve to die!"

Rosen was speechless.

These two monsters, who were just like brothers just now, how come they turned against each other and fought each other to death? This temper is really weird.

"Gulp~~ Delicious human flesh and blood, here I come!"

A loud swallowing sound came from the exit of the corridor, and hurried footsteps came at the same time, getting closer and closer to Rosen.

"He's catching up, much faster than us." Lilith's face was full of anxiety.

Rosen heard it more clearly than her. In less than half a second, he stopped and put Lilith back on the aisle behind him. He turned around quickly, took out a full set of weapons, and prepared to fight.

He also risked his life. After killing this monster, he immediately ran back to the entrance along the way he came. If someone blocked the entrance, he would force his way out. Although it would cause big trouble, it was better than passing through the underground dark city where monsters lived.
