  Chapter 34 Similar People

   "Oh, how did I expose?"

  On the gloomy dock, the final game unfolded. It was obviously a mortal blow, but Lorenzo still avoided it. The man was surprised, but he didn't expect Lorenzo to still be wary of himself.

   "Because I also discovered all this."

  Lorenzo said while slowly turning around to face the twisted figure.

   "This underground palace was originally designed as a hot spring pass. It is so easy to conceal any secrets here. You don't even need to invest in troops. The monsters alone are enough to resist everything."

  He covered the wound with his hand. Although there was no blood gushing out, the real pain remained.

"But you have left a way out here, just like what you said "no survivor", you said it also includes you, but this dark river exposes you, you don't want to die, so the previous appearance is just Is it a suspended animation, isn't it?"

Looking at Sabo, who had turned into a monster, Lorenzo spoke but couldn’t restrain the surprise in his heart. Obviously he was also corrupted, but he did not become the monster of the walking dead. He still maintained his sense, even though he had The shell of the monster.

The previous shortness is no longer, the strange growth of the limbs has become slender, the unique fingers have become thicker, so that he can hold the blade more firmly, and the mottled thorn sword also has the growth of flesh and tissue similar to the tendon. , Seemed to come alive under that weird and crazy blessing.

   "Yeah, I can't die... No one can make me die."

  Sabo’s voice has a hoarse reverb. He is almost inhuman, but he still maintains his final sanity.

   "I am a deformed Viking. I was abandoned by Odin from the moment I was born. My mother left me in the wilderness. She might think I would die, but I survived."

  The eyeballs were squeezed together by the savagely growing sarcoma, and under the dark red blood vessels, the faint gaze fixed on Lorenzo.

"Mr. Holmes, I was born to be abandoned by the gods, but I am also a person who was born to resist. The cold wind of the north country failed to kill me, and the miserable life failed to defeat me. I used It took three fingers to exchange for Inervig's ferry ticket.

  There are many people who want to kill me, but none of them succeeded. I will live forever longer than anyone else. "

   is like a horrible speech. With the pronunciation, the viscous liquid flows down between the sharp teeth, and the whole body is full of madness. Sabo was born to fight for survival. Life is his only wealth. How could he abandon it like this because of a word from the epidemic doctor?

   "Speaking of which, I am still a believer in the Gospel Church..."

  Thinking of the past, Sabo laughed hoarsely.

  "You used to be a pastor, so Mr. Holmes, have you also been abandoned by your god?"

  The muddy eyes were sad, and some couldn't believe it. Lorenzo actually saw sympathy on that monster.

  "I have never believed in God. I was born in Feilengcui, where there are only two kinds of people, believers and pastors."

   His eyes were slightly cold, he replied.

  "Believers not only have to worship their faith, but they also have to pay money to church, but the pastor is different. We only go to work on Sundays, and if we don’t have money, we take a little from the collection box. Life is very moist."

  Obviously he was a priest, even a Templar knight, but Lorenzo had no awe of the so-called god.

   "Then why did you leave where?"

  Sabo asked.

   "As a lunatic, you seem to have a lot of shit."

   Lorenzo's cold refusal, and then there appeared action power in that body that was completely inconsistent with the injury.

The shotgun slammed up and fired. After the dazzling fire, several projectiles shot at Sabo with the deadly blood, but this time it missed. Sabo's slender body has never been faster than before. This is the deformed body. Unable to bring the speed, he easily avoided the deadly gunshot, and then swung down with a sharp stabbing sword.

   "I just think the two of us are very similar."

  Sabo watched Lorenzo slowly put away the stabbing sword, even with such a quick sword, he still failed to kill Lorenzo.

  The thorn sword smashed the planks supporting the wharf, and under the broken sawdust, the two people's foothold became narrower and narrower.

   "I said that you made me, so I was always curious about where you came from. I tried many ways. The only information I can get is that you arrived in Inervig six years ago."

  Looking at the figure standing on the edge of the dock, Sabo said affectionately.

"A foreigner covered in blood. No one thought you could survive that kind of injury. But you did it. You are like me. We all fight for survival. Come to Inverweg for survival. To Old Dunling!"

  In the face of such enthusiastic fans, only one shot was heard in response to Sabo. The agile figure easily escaped the shot, and the strange claws hung himself on the wet rock wall like a barb.

   "I am different from you, Sabo."

  Looking up at the hanging demon, Lorenzo's mood did not fluctuate in the slightest.

   "What's the difference? When you stare into the abyss, the abyss is staring at you too. We are the same kind!"

   Sabo roared hoarsely, and accompanied by a sour sound, a white sac bulged on the end of his arm limb, then the sac ruptured, and the newborn arm opened under it.

   "You have the same taste as mine, Mr. Holmes, you also have secret blood flowing in your body!"

  He screamed, and then the newborn arm pierced into his abdominal cavity fiercely. Accompanied by the sound of bones cracking, a pair of sharp ribs were drawn out of it, like unsheathed sword blades.

   The hideous figure fell down in the next second, three sharp blades fell from the sky, and the fragile wooden boards could not withstand the huge force, and they cracked one after another.

  Lorenzo easily dodged the attack, obviously his chest was pierced, but like a okay person, his figure quickly marched on the wooden stakes exposed to the water, and even turned back and fired back from time to time.

   "We are the same, Mr. Holmes, we are the same kind of people, in order to live at all costs, even if we swallow secret blood!"

  The demon roared forward, and the dock was almost destroyed when the two met, and only rows of wooden stakes were left for them to settle.

The bone blade collided with the sword, and then another bone blade and stabbing sword struck from different directions. Lorenzo tried to avoid, but Sabor's free arm grabbed him, and then the bone blade and stabbing sword. Pierce the body of that mortal.

   "Actually, I am very old. I am almost fifty years old. It is just because of the dwarf's body that it is difficult for ordinary people to realize it.

  I have been fighting for survival all my life, but in the end I was trapped in this deformed body. My internal organs were exhausting, and my breathing became heavy. I even said that I couldn’t even raise the sail again. "

  Sabo confided and killed him, just as he said, after he saw him and Lorenzo were the same, the two hungry wolves that met in a narrow path, only Lorenzo could understand his feelings.

   "So this is the reason you swallow secret blood?"

  Lorenzo did not show the slightest pain on his face, it was clearly penetrated by the blade, but he asked Sabo.

  A little sadness on that twisted face, he replied.

   "Yes, only then can I survive."

  Even if he becomes inhuman, Sabo is still alive, which is enough for him.

"Of course, I still have the last thing to do. Kill you and the girl who ran away. No one will know that I survived. I can go to a new place, just like when I came to the old town. A new life."

  Sabo laughed madly as he spoke. The secret blood had corroded him severely. Not only was his body transformed into a monster, but his will began to gradually go crazy.

   "What you can't do. The price of starting a new life is to completely abandon the past. Can you do it? Sabo."

  The words were like ridicule, thunder from the shotgun at such a close range, the broken projectile penetrated the body of the demon, and then a tingling sensation like a fire came from every part of the body.

  It was a lonely white firework, released from the gap of the bone blade that penetrated, like a heresy being burned, Lorenzo embraced Sabo and bathed in a holy flame.

  Following that screaming howl, Sabo struggled to escape from Lorenzo's side. The sharp blade cut the burning flesh and blood directly, and the scarlet skin was covered with scalded blisters.

   "Saab, we may be similar, but we are different people from the beginning."

  The fireworks at the other end of the darkness went out, and Lorenzo's voice slowly came. He stepped on one after another, holding a sword and a gun.

  It was an unspeakable feeling. It seemed that from this moment on, the detective named Lorenzo Holmes was dead, and some evil spirit that had been lurking in the depths of the darkness replaced his will.

   "You became a monster to survive, and I lived to this day to fight the monster!"

  It was a roar that hit the soul directly, and the wounded body began to heal strangely. The tattoo that spread to the entire back seemed to come alive, as if there was life on the pale skin.

  【The secret blood awakens by 7%, leaving the stable value range, and the silver-binding plug begins to melt. 】

A blazing glow rose from the gray-blue eyes, and Sabo could only see the sword light that was quickly pulled into a white line. As the man stepped on, the stakes collapsed one by one, splashing large drops of water. .

  It happened almost instantaneously. When Sabo realized all this, the man who looked like a ghost had already sent the sword into his chest, and the white fireworks burned on the blade.
