Chapter 67: Last words

Yes, it’s no wonder I didn’t believe this was the basement I just escaped from. It was so quiet and eerie, as if the monsters that had just come out, the cold aura, and even the old man who had fought so hard were all just my illusions!

But how could so many things disappear in an instant? I couldn’t react in time.

Jiang Yi, who had just asked me about the situation on the way, was very calm. Facing the quiet basement, he said calmly, “Let’s go down and take a look. It’s not their style to be blocked so easily.”

Yes, these people and a large state department have been fighting for so long, it would be strange if they were simply blocked from the door.

So, without anyone asking any questions, we walked towards the basement under Jiang Yi’s leadership.

I was being supported by Yuan Yi and Huigen, and we walked down the same path that Lao Hui and I had walked not long ago. It was as if we were in a state of illusionary tranquility, making me feel as if Lao Hui and I had just been in a movie here, and that I was so immersed in the role that Lao Hui would jump out and pat me on the shoulder and say to me, “Brother, you did a good job. You can win a Golden Globe.”

But after entering the corridor, I knew that everything that had happened was actually real. It was very quiet here, but there were still some severed limbs, blood with a strange color, and a bloody smell everywhere in the corridor. There were even zombies that were not completely dead and were struggling to attack us.

I suddenly became scared. I was afraid of suddenly seeing Lao Hui’s corpse, and I was afraid of not being able to find Lao Hui’s corpse. But no, there was no Lao Hui! There was only the mess of the battle!

Looking at all this, I didn’t dare to imagine how far Lao Hui had fought to get to this scene. Despite my escape, I seemed to be able to see that there was a man who had once been here, fighting bloody battles, blocking the raging danger here with his body for me, opening a safe path for me…

I didn’t want to cry, because that would show weakness, but in fact I couldn’t help it. I saw Xiaobei, like a zombie, touching the cold walls, completely unaware that he was already in tears. The other brothers were the same. Looking at this scene, how could they hold back their tears? What kind of battle would it be? How could there be such a bloody battlefield?

Jiang Yi didn’t say a word, walking quietly in front of us. Behind us, someone was constantly and carefully dealing with the zombies that were still struggling, cleaning up the battlefield!

Jiang Yi walked up to the small window and looked in. I sensed that his brows had slightly furrowed. Perhaps it was because he stood in front of the small window and felt the evil aura of the blood pool that he was already indifferent, but he still had some emotional excitement.

There was nothing to see in front of the small window. After all, the lights had gone out during the battle. Jiang Yi stopped in front of the small window for half a minute and said, “Let’s go down. If you want to see a living person, you have to see the corpse. Let’s go down and see if Lu Fanming is dead.”

After all, it was completely dark down there, and it was impossible to see where Lu Fanming’s body was.

We walked down the stairs quietly. There were no more traces of the battle here. With Lao Hui’s ability, he would not have been able to ‘kill’ his way down, so we quickly reached the end of the spiral staircase and came to this basement.

Standing in the basement, Jiang Yi didn’t say a word. The person following us was busy with the lights, but at that moment, I heard a roar. Before I could see anything, I felt a dark shadow pounce on Jiang Yi.

Jiangyi didn’t seem to care. At this time, there were already a few lights behind us. I only saw Jiangyi casually make a hand gesture and shout the word “shock,” and the black shadow struggled and could not move forward.

Jiang Yi was still making hand gestures, and I recognized that it was a spell about fire. After all, I knew without thinking that the monster that had pounced on us was a zombie monster. To deal with this kind of thing, the only way to completely kill it was with fire or thunder. In this basement, thunder spells were obviously laborious, and fire was the best.

But Jiang Yi had not finished the hand gestures, and stopped, somewhat surprised, “eh” and then his sigh.

What was he sighing about? I instinctively felt a tightening in my heart. Before I could say anything, I was blinded by the sudden light behind me, and instinctively shielded my eyes.

But before I could lower my hand, I heard a heart-wrenching cry of “Oh my God!” It was Xiaobei’s voice. I turned around and looked at Xiaobei in confusion, but I saw him rushing madly towards the zombie monster, suddenly kneeling in front of it and crying heart-wrenchingly.

I had a premonition, but I couldn’t believe it. My neck was as frozen as ice, and I didn’t want to look up and take a closer look, but I couldn’t help but look up and take a closer look. As soon as I looked, I suddenly felt my heart break into many pieces, and each piece was crazy… Yes, at that moment I felt like I was crazy!

The torn T-shirt, the trademark big underpants, one was missing, but there was still one on the foot of the slippers, the expression was distorted, and even the face covered with blood and scars could not stop me from seeing at a glance that it was Lao Hui, who was still fighting for me just now.

I pushed Yuan Yi and Huigen, who were standing next to me, aside like a fool, and moved step by step to the zombie monster, no, to Lao Hui. I reached out with trembling hands, wanting to put my hand on Lao Hui’s shoulder, but what I got in return was Lao Hui’s bite. He couldn’t move now, but he was still struggling to bite me…

“Be careful.” Jiang Yi grabbed my hand, but I frantically pulled away from Jiang Yi’s hand. Jiang Yi didn’t say anything, just sighed and backed away.

I put my hand on Lao Hui’s shoulder and wanted to say something, but suddenly I choked and tears fell like rain… just suddenly, tears fell like rain!

“Roar…” Lao Hui roared, he couldn’t bite me, but his claws suddenly grabbed my arm, and his sharp, pointed nails instantly pierced into my flesh. But I didn’t feel any pain. I wished he would hit me harder, harder, and then my pain would be covered up!

The warm liquid that came out stimulated me. I yelled at the sky, “God, I fuck you!” This was the first time I had cursed God. No matter what I had experienced in the past, I had never cursed God. I accepted my fate. I knew that fate was a fixed river course. You can’t change it. If you want to change it, it will be like a river in history that suddenly changed course, bringing catastrophic consequences!

But today I couldn’t help it. I had to curse the heavens. Why did they have to torture a hero like this? Turn him into the monster he hated. Was this supposed to be his destiny?

When pain reaches its limit, there is no sound. I cried to the sky, but it was silent tears. Next to me, my brothers, who had lived and died together, had surrounded me, and were crying out loud, hugging a zombie monster.

Laohui was being held by several of us, struggling desperately, but he could not hurt us for the time being. Except for the claw that had pierced my arm, I would not let anyone else take him away. If this was a contact that could be had in life, I would endure any pain. This was the closeness I gave my brothers.

Jiang Yi, after all, just sighed and then had someone start exploring the secret room. At this moment, our grief was not something that could be comforted by words.

After a short while, someone came back to report that there was an unknown secret passage in the basement, asking Jiang Yi if he should investigate. Before Jiang Yi had a chance to speak, someone else came back to report that there were messy writings in the corner over there.

Without comforting the grieving us, Jiang Yi walked over, and we stayed there, as if we had fallen into a sad universe, unable to feel anything around us, and not caring anymore.

This was the last time we hugged our brother, even though he no longer remembered us. Even though we were separated by only life and death,

We didn’t know how long it had been since we had last seen each other. Someone came and said to us, “The boss wants to see you. The writing over there might be… from your comrades.”

What? I suddenly realized that Lao Hui had left a last will and testament?
