Chapter 117 Consciousness
Miss Crawford is in very bad condition now, and it can be said to be bad, and is only one step away from the harsh result of death-
At this moment, she was walking along the edge of the forest near a canyon, staggering towards the slum-like dilapidated town in front of her, leaving behind a string of blood.
She knew that the open wound on her lower abdomen was particularly serious and she had to deal with it immediately, otherwise she would really die here, which was definitely not a joke.
The only place most likely to find a therapeutic drug is in the slum-like dilapidated town in front of you. From here, you can see an abandoned helicopter, which is most likely to have drugs on it...
The reason why Laura fell to this point is because she has experienced so many thrilling developments in the past two days.
First of all, she felt that it was because she sent a help signal that all the search and rescue aircraft groups crashed. In guilt, despite Rose's dissuasion, she was going to rescue the driver who was parachuting and landing nearby.
As for the truth about sacrifice and loss that Ross told her, she was completely unable to understand.
And what was unexpected was that the pilot's help signal was a trap set by Matthias. Laura, who was completely unprepared for this, almost splattered blood on five steps while heading to rescue the pilot and died on the spot...
However, at that urgent moment, some inhuman creatures like evil ghosts rushed out of the edge of the ruins of the complex, wearing heavy armor, dressed in ancient warriors.
They slaughtered the Solari thugs without distinguishing themselves from each other, and killed the Solari thugs to cry for their parents. It is precisely because of this that Laura escaped in an emergency.
But she was also caught by those things at that time and was almost treated as reserve rations.
——After all, when Laura, who was unconscious, woke up again, she found herself tied to a room full of fresh, rotten stinky corpses, and there were huge monsters patrolling outside.
That nightmare scene can really scare the crazy people.
She tried to dig a hole in the wall and staggered along the tunnel. She encountered a terrifying wind along the way, roaring and destroying all buildings.
However, it is precisely because of this that she accidentally broke into a secret tomb, where she discovered the coffin of the first sun queen, Himehu, and the remains of the rumored historical figure.
The remains in the coffin have been completely weathered, but at least they are not empty, which means that the first generation of Sun Queen is indeed dead, which makes her more sure that Mo Chen said before has no reason.
But it was also the same thing that happened before, such as the thunder storm that was clearly targeted at the search and rescue team, and the ancient warriors who seemed to be inhumane, were still vivid in their minds, which made her dare not make a rash conclusion for a while.
As for the murals around the tomb, some secrets about the ancient Sun Queen were revealed to Miss Crawford:
It is said that they choose their heirs through the fire sacrifice ceremony, and the heirs of the inherited power will become the new generation of sun queens or something.
However, this seems to only show that this is a ceremony to select the queen's heir, which shows that this is really a ruin from the ancient country of Xiematai, and it cannot explain other issues.
Moreover, before she could explore more hidden secrets in the tomb, she fell into a melee because she was found by the enemy. Then she was forced to continue to flee because she alarmed the evil ghosts.
After finally escaping, Laura finally received a message from Shanmansha, who had been missing for a long time.
The other party said that he was eventually caught by Mathias's madman and kidnapped to the ancient palace in the canyon. The other crew members of the Perseverance wanted to rescue her, but were defeated by the Solari thugs and were also imprisoned.
Shanmansha said that she had stole a guardian radio communicator to contact Laura briefly, and she also heard that the group of lunatics were going to send her to the fire festival, so she felt extremely frightened.
When Laura was also frightened by recalling the murals she had just seen in the secret tomb of the ancient Sun Queen.
Those madmen were about to burn their best friends with fire? Why did they do this? Do they really think that the legends are real and want Sanmantha to inherit the power of the Sun Queen?
Unable to sit down and watch such a crazy thing happen, and learning that most of the other Perseverance crews were imprisoned in the ancient palace ruins in the canyon, Laura and Ross set out from both ends at the same time.
But an accident occurred on the way. She fell into the turbulent river, pushed down the waterfall by the water flow, fell from a high altitude and crashed into the wreckage of another plane.
Then because the cabin was broken, Laura had only time to get a parachute bag and fell straight from the broken cabin.
Skydiving at a low altitude, there was still a primeval forest below. She didn't know how many times she was scratched along the way, but she finally hit the tree and then fell to the ground...
Although it was blocked by tree branches during the process, eased a large part of the force, the height itself was equivalent to seven or eight floors.
She didn't fall to the ground all of a sudden, but just didn't fall to death on the spot. It was impossible not to pay any price.
Therefore, this is why Laura is now staggering, her eyes are black, and she is almost in desperate situation. She is seriously injured and must find a way to deal with her injuries as soon as possible, even if the slum ahead is Sorari's base camp, she doesn't care too much about it.
...
...
Miss Crawford avoided the enemy's guard as carefully as possible, and found an opportunity to enter the slum waterway. She wanted to advance from under the building and bypass the Solari mobs on the periphery.
After moving forward for a while, a rude man's angry scolding and cursing sound came from the house above the waterway, which seemed hysterical.
"Where did that old man go?!"
There was also a strange sound of beating the body, and there was even another man's weak and dying voice, as if he was tortured by abuse and was crying in pain like begging.
"I don't know what you are talking about... Please spare me..."
Then the irritable man's voice sounded again, looking even more violent, as if he was interrogating and questioning—
"You are lying!! I saw you running away with him!!"
"Please! I...no...ah...I...no..."
"It seems that I have to find a way to make you feel relieved!"
"Ah...no—!!"
"Speak quickly! Where is that old man!"
Laura's eyes were getting dark, and her severe pain in her body and the hypoxia-suffocation from her brain were tormenting her.
So at this time, she had no choice but to grit her teeth and pretend not to hear it. But a thought flashed through her mind subconsciously, thinking about who the old man these people were trying to catch was.
It seems that it is Old Gerlin? He acted with Reyes and others, and after failing to rescue Shanmansha, it seems that he was not caught by Solari. It is probably him.
The violent beatings, collisions, and even vomiting blood and vague pleading sounds in the house above were mixed together, but they suddenly disappeared at the same time after more than ten seconds.
“…!!”
Laura subconsciously stopped moving forward, holding her breath and not daring to speak. At this time, she was too weak and in an extremely bad state, and she had absolutely no chance of winning in a head-on conflict with the thugs.
She was afraid that the sudden calm was because her whereabouts were exposed.
Although Miss Crawford had already made her moves very cautiously, she was always separated by only one floor. She could hear the sound coming from above, which did not mean that the people above could not hear the sound below.
“…”
“…”
However, after a while, nothing happened. Just when she was in amazement, a lifeless body was suddenly pushed down somewhere in front, accompanied by the irritable man's previous scolding.
It seemed that the calm just now was not because he discovered some enemy traces in the waterway below the house, but because he tortured the person to death by taking too much effort.
Looking at the corpse, Laura pursed her lips, unable to tell whether she felt relieved or felt her heart tugging.
Life on this island is really worthless, so you must understand who is the friend and who is the enemy... She lowered her head and continued to move forward slowly, trying not to make any sound.
Soon she arrived at an open site at the exit of the waterway—
There were high walls surrounded by wooden boards, iron sheets, wires and other things, and there were people guarding the gate, and several thugs were talking and walking inside.
"What happened? What's going on inside?"
"It was the Somalian who was crazy and beat that guy to death..."
"Here is here again? Haha, he beats people to death every time. By the way, is there any news about that old man?"
"No, that old bastard is quite strong, but he definitely can't go too far. Let's go to the helicopter to search..."
Laura's breathing inevitably became much more rapid. She tried her best to control the rhythm and frequency of her breathing, trying her best to prevent her condition from deteriorating. She did not act immediately, but carefully observed the enemy's post arrangements.
After exploring the rules, she endured a wave of dizziness and the black feeling in front of her, and seized the opportunity to use bows and arrows to deal with all the thugs guarding the gate, one by one, quietly.
Immediately afterwards, she entered the camp gate and walked down the mountain road, silently killing the scattered enemies with bows and arrows. Finally, before she fell to the ground completely, she killed the last unaware thug and arrived at the tail of the abandoned helicopter.
After trying to open the rear hatch door, she entered the cabin and found the medical box.
However--
"No? Why didn't it..." Miss Crawford, who was panicked, almost cried in her voice.
She has endured too much pain along the way, which is a test that is approaching the limit of human beings. She must overcome both physical and mental trauma at the same time before she can go all the way here.
But she is also a human rather than a god. There is no medical medicine on the helicopter now, and her injuries must not be delayed anymore...
"This is……?"
Laura, who took out a lighter from the pilot's body with trembling hands, looked at it blankly for a long time, poked it there like half a piece of wood, and finally sat down on the spot with gritted teeth.
Next, she focused on burning the sharp arrow of an arrow red with a lighter, and then putting down the hot lighter. She raised the red arrow and shook it a few times, her whole body as tense as a stone.
Her teeth clenched, and her pupils were filled with fear.
But in the end, Miss Crawford shook, pulled open the hem of her clothes with her other hand, and slowly closed her eyes, and cruelly put the red-hot iron arrow-
"Hey, wait, don't be so impulsive!"
At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly came from the hatch. Laura subconsciously opened her eyes and looked over, only seeing a familiar figure.
It was about a moment of peace of mind that made her subconsciously relax, but her body could no longer hold on. There was a buzzing sound in her ears and a buzzing sound in her head.
Bang! The arrow fell weakly on the floor next to it.
"I...you..."
Miss Crawford opened her mouth, feeling that her body was rising straight, as if she was about to float into the air. No matter how she fought, she could not help but lose consciousness.
