Chapter 633 People’s Nightmare

The wind and snow swirled across the grassland in the early morning, and the mist spread, but ten tall black giants still stood quietly.

...wrong.

After leaving the fertile ranch and on the way back to the territory, You Huan suddenly stopped and looked down at the black giants below.

Their positions seemed to have changed, as if they had collectively moved a few meters to the right.

Is it an illusion?

He stared at the black giants for several minutes, but the giants just didn't move.

Of course it couldn't be an illusion, he believed that his memory would not be wrong.

So these silent giants really moved - when no one noticed!

He secretly became alert, but because these black giants did not move at all in his sight, he finally dropped some small cattails here and left.

The dead pasture was left far behind.

Since the Sisters were unwilling to attack and the Church had no intention of attacking for the time being, the ranch was tacitly considered his territory.

After clearing all the frozen prey on the pasture, he returned to his real territory at a faster speed than when he came, with a level of [Lv.9 (502/2560)].

With a "whoosh", the snow on the edge of the territory was blown up.

The people who were searching for supplies in the snow were startled and subconsciously took a step back when they saw the sudden appearance of a snow-white figure.

Then they realized that the corpse beast standing in front of them was their lord.

…In theory, it probably wouldn't eat them, and they should greet it politely?

Just when these people who had never had a corpse beast lord didn't know what to do, the tall and handsome corpse beast had already walked among them, its long hair rustling in the wind.

In the end, they could only stand there in silence, watching the lord walk skillfully to the unnecessary gate of the base.

After a moment of silence, the guards opened the door for it.

The lord wagged his tail and just walked into the base and looked around. Then, Ms. Li, the leader of the Spark Base, walked out of the shopping mall that had been transformed into a fortress.

"Lord, you're back." After Li said this, he subconsciously turned his head to look outside the territory.

Her vision penetrated the buildings and the space, and she saw the spies from all directions rapidly retreating outside the territory.

After the lord left, countless evildoers dared to come and investigate near the territory.

Now that the lord has returned, it is like a beast returning to the throne, and those spies are like surprised insects, and they immediately flee away.

The return of the lord was certainly reassuring, but it also aroused greater worries in her heart.

If the lord leaves again, and if an enemy takes the opportunity to attack... they will definitely be the first to suffer.

...And the lord probably doesn't care much about their life or death.

It just gave them a place to stay, and the construction of the territory did not include them at all.

If an enemy attacks, the real heartland of the territory may be safe and sound, but this group of people who are ignored by everyone will be crushed like little insects.

But who could they blame? They couldn't ask for more from a dead beast.

You Huan noticed a little bit of Li's sadness, but he didn't show it.

The only thing between him and this group of humans was exchange.

They traded intelligence for a place to stay with him, a habitat that was seldom disturbed and rich in resources.

After this, whether they felt danger and left here, or stayed here forever, or whether they lived or died, it had nothing to do with him.

...But, speaking of it, he was planning to hand the little girl over to this group of people.

Thinking of this, he nodded to Li Weiwei, then looked behind him.

"ah!"

"What's this?!"

Several exclamations were heard at the gate of the base.

Li looked towards the gate immediately after hearing the voice, and his pupils shrank immediately.

——There were many things like snow-white blankets floating in the sky, flying over!

Suddenly, a green vine-like thing fell from a "flying carpet", brushed against the wire fence of the base, and then landed next to You Huan. The end of the curled vine opened, revealing a... young human girl?

Li was confused by this scene, and several question marks seemed to appear above his head.

But she reacted quickly and looked at the lord: "Are you going to give this girl to us to raise?"

"…"

The little girl walked out from the vines and leaned towards You Huan's legs when she heard the words.

But the next moment, the animal's legs she was holding moved and pushed her in front of Li.

"This is the child I rescued at the ranch. I can't raise humans, so I leave her to you." You Huan said.

The girl felt the reddish gaze behind her and was silent for a while before she looked up and shouted to Li Cuisheng, "Hello, Auntie."

"Live well."

Lee watched as the lord raised his furry paw, patted the little girl's head, and gave her some instructions, thinking that this child seemed to need to be treated with the highest security standards.

Then she felt the lord's gaze, calm and clear, but it made her feel a sudden increase in pressure.

"What's going on in your base recently? Why are there fewer people moving around outside?"

——Also, I saw a lot of people with abnormal heat flow in the base.

You Huan did not say the second half of the sentence.

His main purpose of returning to the territory was to send back the Function Card Pure Black Water and a large number of frozen White Knights for Xiao Pu to study.

But as he passed by, he saw something unusual going on at the Spark Base.

If his vision was correct... there should be a lot of people in the base suffering from similar pains as corpse transformation.

The amount of black dust in their bodies fluctuated, and their physiological activities were also very abnormal.

After being questioned, Li showed an expression as if a huge rock had finally fallen to the ground, and then his expression turned serious. He whispered:

"They have suffered from the black dust storm before. Even if I stopped the corpse transformation in time, their situation has been getting worse and worse. From time to time, some people are on the verge of corpse transformation."

"On the verge of becoming a corpse, but not yet a corpse..." After the explanation, she heard the lord mutter, and his coral red eyes looked at her thoughtfully.

Just one glance gave her goose bumps all over her body, as if all her secrets had been seen through.

After that, the majestic and mysterious lord said nothing more. He touched the little girl's head and turned around, and his figure disappeared in an instant.

"..." Li looked in the direction where it disappeared, stunned for a moment, then sighed and took the silent little girl's hand, "Let's go, I'll take you to the base to have a look, uncles and aunts will welcome you very much."

Children - not children who are eaten by monsters - are the most scarce thing in the apocalypse, but also the hope for humanity to move forward.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Even though taking care of children is more troublesome than taking care of adults, people in the base are willing to do it.

The girl nodded silently, and after walking a few steps, she suddenly asked, "Is he the lord of this place?"

"Him?" Li was stunned for a moment, then reacted, "Yes, he protected us - but not by raising us as food."

"Then, will I be able to see him again in the future?"

"...There will be opportunities, so you have to work hard and grow up well." Li reached out and rubbed her head. "Little girl, what's your name?"

"My name is Luna Flair."

After meeting everyone with the little girl entrusted by the lord, Li walked alone to a big door.

She felt a little relieved.

This girl seems to be close to the lord, although it's not nice to say this... but with her here, the safety of the base may be more guaranteed.

Then she composed herself and pushed open the heavy door in front of her.

"Well..."

"I saw it...I saw it again!"

"Damn, that hurts!"

"Mom! Dad! Where am I!"

In an instant, screams, groans, cries, and countless noisy and abnormal sounds came towards Li as the door opened.

——In the completely isolated empty area behind the gate, people were either lying on the ground or crawling and running in the corridor.

Their skin is an abnormal red, and if you touch their bodies at this time, you will immediately feel an alarming heat.

These are the people that the lord just mentioned who are "on the verge of becoming zombies, but haven't yet become zombies."

Li closed the door gently, walked into the isolation area, and checked the conditions of these people with a heavy face.

Suddenly, a pair of hands grabbed her hem!

The sturdy man held her tightly like a helpless child, uttering incoherent words:

"Save me... There are monsters all around me! They are all looking at us!"

"Giant... Such a huge giant!"

"It will come soon! Save me! I don't want to stay in this world..."

Looking closely, the man who was crying and screaming had his eyes closed. He said that there were monsters, giants, and advents all around him, and it seemed as if those things were happening in another world.

It happened in the world he saw in his dreams after he closed his eyes.

As if hearing his words, someone beside him murmured:

"Ah... Don't go forward. That black tombstone in front of us is the grave of all of us..."

I saw that this person also had his eyes closed.

——Everyone in this quarantine area behaves the same way!

After Li came into contact with many people like this, she realized that what they saw, heard, and experienced were definitely not pure illusions.

But it is the future that Heichen shows them!

She sighed, grabbed the sturdy man's hand, slowly squatted down, and slowly laid him on the ground.

Then she took the knife in one hand and gently cut her arm.

Crystal clear blood beads immediately seeped out of the wound.

She simply and roughly pressed the blood into the man's mouth. The man muttered a few words and his expression gradually calmed down.

Li did the same thing again and fed some of his blood to everyone here.

In this way, she walked to the end of the corridor, and there was a door there.

After hesitating for a moment, she pushed the door open and went in.

In the dim little room, she looked at the knight lying on the bed with a frown on his face and unconscious, and called out softly,

"Witley."

"Wake up, my knight, and stop being immersed in the nightmare created for you by Bai Chen!" (End of this chapter)
