Untitled Part 137

Chapter 137: Middle East

Gray rocks protruded from the ground. It made graceful arcs along the ditches and made the depth uneven.

There's a hole in the sky on the edge of this desolate stone forest. Since the giant worm puts its head in the void to devour living things, the ability holders here are too scared to go near. Until one day, they observed a change in the hole. A huge pile of mushrooms fell from the sky. It's like a giant mushroom mountain suddenly grew from the ground, reaching the sky.

Many people rushed over to see this strange creature that looked like mushrooms. It turned out to be "alive," but it didn't bother the ability holders. However, if someone tried to cut a piece of mushroom, or walk into the mushroom bushes, the gray mycelium would immediately move, and bundle people up.

They thought it's a demon, like the giant worm.

There are people with different garments trying to "exorcise" it, some holding a cross, some carrying a book, some wearing a robe and a dome cap, and some wearing a headscarf......there's a variety of people, but whoever comes to see it doesn't think it came in peace.

Some people clashed when they met. Aside from those that clearly belong in different religions, even the people in the same garments cannot coexist peacefully. This seemed to be a country that legalized carrying arms as almost everyone had a gun in hand.

Monsters perched on the surface, while human beings stayed in underground cities.

Because of language barriers and the fact that the three of them looked significantly different from the locals, they can only avoid the crowd.

By chance, Li Fei found another narrow path leading to a camp in the west. After they walked down the neatly piled steps, they discovered that the grandeur of this underground city is beyond their imagination.

The path extended in all directions. Large and small houses are connected together, and there is plenty of space for activities in the area around the wells. There are also stone beds and stone benches in the "houses." Once you open a window, the vents have a very reasonable layout. Only, now it's being used by the monsters. People gave up this small area and evacuated to a safer place deeper underground.

The stone houses are very hard. The mole rats aren't able to bite it, but it's a comfortable place to make a nest.

When the mushroom came, the mole rats that can't escape became nutrients.

Rumors about the "demons" swept through the city and became increasingly popular.

Meanwhile, Jian Hua didn't know what to do with the teenager protagonist.

Johnson's "potted plant" and "no eyesore" skills are even higher than Li Fei. If it weren't for Jian Hua's feedback ability, maybe he wouldn't even notice which corner Johnson made a nest.

The teenager is like a stone. When not hungry, he wouldn't go trouble the monsters and often shrunk in the corner to rest, never noisy, just dazed. Sometimes his fingers groped his chest until Johnson realized that he already threw the cross that teacher Katie gave him long ago, and Mr. Morenza didn't give him anything.

The teenager's eyes were red as he climbed to the surface, sat on a rock and looked at the moon in a daze.

The temperature here is low, and his clothes are too thin. He soon got a fever.

Jian Hua: ......

With face burned red, he simply ate the raw meat he hunted, not asking anything from Jian Hua, and not even getting close.

"Before, at the border, he smelled the soup and ran over to peek." Jian Hua was puzzled.

"He wants the soup, but I'm afraid it's not for himself......" Li Fei remembered Federico's illness as if he had no strength to speak.
