Chapter 521: What Lurks In The Shadow

How was this a factory?

It was simply a huge slaughterhouse. It was just that the creatures waiting to be slaughtered inside had changed from livestock to humans!

At this moment, Lod finally understood why the entire city was empty. He could not even sense the aura of a living person. This was because there were no living people anymore. This place had become a dead city!

"What exactly happened here?"

Lod forcefully endured the churning acid in his stomach. His pupils trembled slightly like an earthquake. He could not imagine what kind of disaster this city had gone through to cause this situation!

But at the same time, two questions could not help but arise in his heart.

According to the area occupied by this city, there should be at least hundreds of thousands of people. However, there was not a trace of a living person. It made people wonder if there was not a single person alive?

Or what exactly happened that caused these hundreds of thousands of people to walk into the factory without any resistance, and then be minced into pieces and thrown into this ditch?

Also, who built this slaughterhouse and what was its purpose?

Lod turned his eyes back to the factory. At this time, the two scarlet searchlights, which were already like giant beasts in his eyes, were staring at the town in the distance with cold and greedy eyes.

Rumble..

The factory that was like a giant beast in the rainstorm kept emitting mechanical roars. The exhaust pipe was still pouring out broken limbs and flesh like a fountain.

"What a slaughterhouse."

The anger in Lod's eyes surged. Although he rarely interfered in human affairs, the current miserable state he was in had already exceeded anyone's bottom line!

Even if he was not taking revenge for these people, he still wanted to see what secrets were hidden in this factory and the origin of the black smoke!

Lod took a deep breath, then raised his vigilance and carefully walked to the factory. At the same time, his right hand pressed on the handle of sword who was at his waist.

Originally, he wanted to avoid the searchlights and quietly approach the factory. However, the coverage of the searchlightwas very strange. It was clearly directed at the city from a strange angle. However, after he walked around, he found that no matter from that angle, the direction of the searchlightwas changing. There was no gap in all corners of the factory.

There was no other way.

If he wanted to get close to the factory, he must step into the range of the searchlights. There was no other way.

Lod hesitated for a moment and finally decided to go in and take a look. He stepped into the two scarlet searchlights.

However, as soon as his feet stepped into the red light, his heart started to panic for no reason. It felt as if something was watching him from behind.

With a whoosh, the hairs on his back stood on end!

The alarm in Lod's heart rose. His intuition told him that within this strange red light, there was a terrifying threat that was fatal!

Hoho!

Almost without any hesitation, Lod immediately withdrew from this strange area and arrived in the rain outside.

Then, when he calmed his breathing and looked up at the area covered by the red light, he suddenly found a human-shaped shadow. It was the place where he had just stood!

"Is that... my shadow?"

Lod's face twitched violently. His heart seemed to be suddenly clenched, and a layer of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

He subconsciously turned around and looked at the black road behind him, trying to find his own shadow.

Although it was extremely difficult to see clearly under the night rain, with his excellent eyesight, he could still barely see a layer of shallow human shadow.

His shadow was still there!

Lod breathed a sigh of relief, but then a question popped up. Since his shadow was still there, then who left the shadow in the red light?

At this time.

The humanoid shadow in the strange red light gradually disappeared after losing the projection, as if it had never appeared.

Lod took in the entire process. There were many doubts in his heart. If he had not seen it with his own eyes just now, he would have thought that it was an illusion.

The black smoke that covered the sky, the huge horror factory, the mountains of minced meat, the empty city, the strange black shadow, the citizens that disappeared, and so on.

The series of things that happened in front of him revealed an unusual strangeness.

"A black shadow?"

A cold light appeared in Lod's eyes. He raised his index finger and aimed at the factory gate. "Then let me try. What exactly are you?"

Hadō #4. Byakurai (Pale Lightning)!

Spiritual Power gathered at his fingertips and released a leaping white lightning. It illuminated the surroundings under the dark rain and rushed to the factory at an extremely fast speed!

However, in the next second.

Something that shocked Lod happened.

After the white lightning entered the red light, the shadow projected by it also appeared on the ground.

And the strange squirming posture of the shadow was like a creature of a soft tissue. It suddenly rose up half a foot high from the ground, and with lightning speed, it devoured the white lightning that was shooting at the factory!

That's right. It was gnawing!

This time, Lod finally saw clearly that the shadow was not a shadow, but a bacterium invisible to the naked eye. They gathered together to form that strange shadow!

When the white lightning was completely devoured, the black bacteria-like shadows dispersed as if they were satisfied. That was why they disappeared like before.

It was not hard to imagine.

If his reaction had been a little slower just now, the white lightning would not have been completely devoured by the black shadow, but by himself.

"So that's how it is."

Lod slowly put down his hand. He had a rough idea in his heart. The purpose of these ghost things here was to protect the factory and not let anyone in.

And from the situation of the black shadow bacteria that could eat white thunder, they completely ignored Spiritual Power, but he did not know how much the upper limit was.

He had to admit that these shadows were indeed very tricky, but only limited to this extent.

It was not difficult to enter.

Whether it was destroying the factory or eliminating these bacteria, it was not a problem for him. It was just a little more time.

But the key problem was that this was only the first checkpoint. Who knew what kind of test he would face after he broke into the factory?

And there was also a limit.

That was that he could only stay in this past time and space for three days. If he exceeded this limit, the illusion of time left there would be ineffective. At that time, he would be completely unable to go back.

After weighing the pros and cons, Lod decided not to go in for the time being. Although three days was not urgent, it was not very free.

After he found Constantine and Potts, if there was still enough time, he would come back to see what kind of secrets were hidden in this factory!

Lod took a deep look at the factory, then turned and left without hesitation.

However, what he did not know was that after he left here for about a few hours, the closed door of the factory opened, and a person climbed out.

The man was naked and crawled on the muddy road like a beast. His limbs were as stiff as a puppet. When he crawled to the edge of the red light, he suddenly looked up at the factory.

Under the light of the searchlight, the man revealed a rather familiar face, which was exactly the same as Lod's face!

"Hhh..."

The man let out a meaningless roar, then turned around and walked into the dark rain, his figure gradually disappearing.
