Chapter Nineteen Close the door
After hypnotizing the school guard, Negri gave him some special plant powders to apply on the soles of his shoes. These powders can carry some unique traces. Only Negri, the person who prepared it, can find such traces.
It was based on this trace that Negri tracked down the abnormal clearance team and his group.
"Why should you say that your courage is commendable or you don't know how high the world is? Probably the latter." Nageri turned over and got down the sewer, closed the manhole cover by the way, and closing the door casually was a good habit.
At this time, Negri's tracking target was also in danger.
In the sewage-filled sewage, something seemed to be rolling inside, and the group led by Loge were running away. They looked frightened and ran away as if they saw the road, and they didn't care about the direction at all.
The torch in her hands roared as she ran. If it weren't for lighting, they would have thrown the torch aside.
"Log, didn't you say you inherited the magic? Use it quickly." A girl named Riss in the team was panting and shouting wildly. The girl's physique was weak and had already landed at the end of the team. The monster rolling in the sewage was right behind her.
Although Ruis usually says she exercises regularly, she actually goes to work. In order not to lose face, she says she goes to exercise. In fact, joining the abnormal cleaning team is also to eat and drink. Although Logge is a little arrogant, he is willing to spend money. Logge also has various funds for daily meals in the team, and he usually has club funds, which is much better than working.
In order to join the club, Riss claimed to be interested in mystery, but he was not interested in these things. He thought it was just like other clubs, but he just did it casually, but he didn't expect that he actually encountered a mysterious incident.
In fact, when the signs appeared before, Rise seemed to have an excuse to withdraw, but after finding clues, Logue promised a large bonus. Thinking of her family giving her increasingly scarce living expenses, she stayed with greed.
Facts have proved that greed is indeed a bad habit, so she is now in danger, and most of the people in the team blame Logue, the leader.
He had sweared that he had inherited his magical abilities, but when he was in danger, he directly ordered to escape.
Logger was also in pain and couldn't say anything. They followed the traces of the school guard who had died before, found the entrance to the sewer, and found some abnormal traces and some disgusting dung piles there. Then they encountered the monster that rushed out of the dung pile.
Loge overestimated his psychological quality. He could not say that he was weak, but he could not say that he was strong. He used magic. Except for some special magic, most magic requires a stable mental state.
After a long practice, other mages can at least ensure that they maintain some stable spirit to cast spells even in panic. However, Loge inherited magic for only more than one day. In order to save not much magic, he only practiced one or two when he was in a stable mood, and was not clear about the various taboos of casting.
So when facing the sudden appearance of monster, he was unable to complete the casting at all. Fortunately, he still retained some sanity. He shouted to retreat and ran away with his abnormal clearing team.
Of course, the reason they were able to escape was because they sacrificed a friend.
A member standing near the dung pile was directly hit by the white thing, and then they heard the last scream of the young life before it died.
Relying on the role of the "divine artifact", they won the time to escape. After they lost their direction, they were chased by monsters again.
"Save me, I don't want to die." Rise, behind, looked at Logue who was running in front and was completely broken down. She shouted loudly: "It took my parents so much money to send me to the academy. If I die, I will lose nothing."
"Log, Randil, save me, save me, who will save me!" Rise cried, but ran slower and slower.
"Swish..."
The white figure in the sewage jumped out and stinked at Riss with a foul smell. Riss stopped running completely, hugged his head and squatted on the ground and screamed loudly.
In the adventure story, there will always be heroes falling from the sky to save the beauty who is in desperate situations, or members of the same team are discovering their conscience and turning around to save her.
However, the fact is that Logue and others in front were faster, and they didn't even look back. The "hero" falling from the sky had just walked into the sewer, so there was no suspense. The white monster directly wrapped Risi, and the painful screams resounded through the entire sewer again, stimulating the people in front of them to speed up again.
After all, there are only so many friends in one of the three artifacts. Maybe at some point, it is yourself who screams.
After another corner, the back gradually became quiet. It seemed that the monster was satisfied after hunting two people, or they ran out of the monster's range.
The few people could no longer care about the gentleman's demeanor and collapsed directly into the dirty sewer, panting heavily.
After a few minutes of silence, one of the members burst out. He grabbed Logue's collar and asked with an extremely excited expression: "You bastard, where is your magic? You tricked us into this to escape and kill us by the way?"
"Why do you yell at me? I've already said that this is a dangerous journey. You didn't complain about these things at that time, but instead looked excited." Although Logger felt guilty in his heart, he was so arrogant that he would not easily admit his mistakes and respond to this person's questioning in a louder voice.
"Not is dead, Rise is dead, you are a coward full of lies!" Another team member, the one who had followed Negri before, also stood up and accused Logue loudly.
"I did run away because I was not ready and was unable to release the spells, but you were not much better. Are you one by one slowing down?" Logger also had a broken heart.
"I think we are not at the time of quarrel, there are two problems now." At this time, the only female member left in the team said coldly: "First, where are we now?"
At this time, the slightly calmer people realized that they had lost their way in the sewer because they were panicked.
"Other question, where have the school guards and Randil been?" Logg was stunned. He was too panicked before. Only now did he realize that in addition to the two people killed by the monster, there were two people who left when they were running away and were separated from them.
"They walked to the left at the fourth fork before us." Several people recalled for a while before they knew how they separated.
"So what to do now?" the woman asked with a bitter face.
"Bang!"
A voice sounded from the heads of several people. The people were so scared that they shivered and almost ran away again. It took a long time to react. This should be the sound from the ground.
"This is the construction site. I remember there is a manhole cover nearby, and we can get out from there." The person who questioned Logue before thought with excitement that he would never want to stay in this terrible sewer again.
"What should Randir and the school guard do?" Logg asked and got an answer.
"I care about them to die!" The two men said at the same time, and then the people who followed Negri before continued: "Log, don't think of deceive us again. If you want to save people, go by yourself. Don't let us be scapegoats. Randir is your brother, not our brother."
Logg's expression was stunned. He just said casually, refuting it purely for refuting. In fact, he wanted to find the nearby exit immediately and leave the ghost place immediately. However, the words of these two people made Logg, who was arrogant and proud, fall into an embarrassing situation. If he followed him out like this and the matter spreads, what would others think of him?
Leaving Nott and Rise can explain that he is not ready. If he leaves Randir and the others now, his face will be completely lost.
"I will go to save them, regardless of whether you go or not." Luo Ge said with all his face, and kept comforting himself in his heart. It was just an emergency just now, so he had no choice. Now he is mentally prepared. When he encounters a monster again, let it taste the power of magic.
"If you want to die, go, Quill, who are you going with?" The two men looked at the only remaining female teammate, hoping that he could be with them, after all, multiple people have multiple ways to survive.
The woman named Quill looked at her and became a little hesitant, and finally she stood beside Logue.
"You will regret it." The two men muttered and looked to the side for the exit nearby. Obviously they didn't know the fixed law of the thriller. Those who left the team and escaped would soon be hungry.
So after two more corners, they saw a new pile of dung, a white monster that had emerged from it.
Logg and Quill looked at each other awkwardly, and could only grit their teeth and explore carefully to the way they came. Suddenly, they heard the shrill screams behind them, and the two of them shook their bodies and immediately ran away.
This time they were at least not so panicked, and chose the road where Randir and the school guards were separated. Not long after, they heard another scream. After sacrificed two more friends, they obtained information and there were monsters there.
Logger and Quill were running in the sewer gasping. As they turned, they suddenly found a little light in front of them. They thought they had encountered the exit and ran over quickly and rolled down a stone stair. When they endured the pain and opened their eyes, they found that they had fallen into a long passage, and there were prisons on both sides.
There are some veils engraved with patterns inside the prison, which occasionally make a buzzing sound.
"Bang..."
A sound woke two people who were still confused. Mikel, who was leaning on a cane, closed the gate of the passage, walked in, and said humorously: "It is a good habit to close the door casually. Unfortunately, I am old and have a bad mind and I forgot."
