48 Hours a Day

Chapter 729 Convergence

Zhang Heng's two shots still had a certain effect. At least they slowed down the progress of the two monsters. After losing the conductor, they were obviously a little uncomfortable. Although they were still coming this way, they had to slow down some autonomy in speed.

This is also the common sense of man. Although they are monsters, they are not completely brainless corpses. They saw Zhang Heng's previous massacre. In addition, there are sacrificial deaths and farmers lying on the side of the road who have been shot in the leg and crying constantly. There will be some apprehension in their hearts.

As for the third sacrificial leader, Zhang Hengdu was not very worried because of the distance.

After hitting the target, he inserted the rifle back into his backpack and then quickly left the two farmhouses.

Zhang Heng did not immediately rendezvous with Fabericott, but circled most of the way, confirming that he had dumped all the monsters behind him, and then turned his head towards where Fabericott was.

After such a period of time, Zhang Heng did not know where Faberlicott had gone. He did not even know if Faberlicott had been caught. If the latter was so slightly behind his back, there was nothing he could do. After all, he had done everything he could.

Zhang Heng could only go along in the agreed direction, and he also noticed that the monsters behind him had not abandoned their search, but now the two sides were relatively far apart, and the swamp was very wide.

Even with the monsters' hands in a short period of time, it is difficult to search, and Zhang Heng consciously leads them in a different direction, he just needs to be careful with the time of activity is still quite a bit.

So finally, there was time to listen to the young traveler himself tell the story of the half-day, provided, of course, that Zhang Heng first found Fabericott.

Zhang Heng also took the opportunity to examine the necklace that he had caught in the first half of the way, because he was too busy fighting to take a closer look, only to find that it was a bit strange material, it was certain that it should be the same material as the gold crown worn on the sacrificial head, but the latter looked more complex and refined.

In contrast, this necklace is much simpler, and although it also has embossing on it, it's just some very abstract symbols, in which Zhang Heng can probably barely identify only water (or life) and the ocean, fish, in addition to which the necklaces close to the skin give a cold feeling.

It's probably quite comfortable to wear in the summer, and of course, like its owner, this necklace emits an unspeakable evil and creepy, like a rattlesnake hiding beneath a tablet.

Zhang Heng confirmed that he could no longer read anything from it, so he stuffed it in the backpack behind him and continued to look for Fabericott.

The church's broken spire stood in the darkness in the distance, while the other hand was the huge shadow of the breakwater, and some figures stood sparsely above it. At first Zhang Heng thought that they were there searching for traces of him and Fabericott, but after looking at it, it did not seem to be the case.

They seemed to turn their backs towards Zhang Heng, facing the direction of the sea, or more precisely the black reef, not knowing what to expect, while Zhang Heng noticed that the disgusting smell in the wind blowing from the sea was even heavier, at first Zhang Heng even mistakenly thought that there were enemies approaching, but then he realized that it was the wind itself.

Zhang Heng had a feeling that what else would happen on the black reef seemed to have something to do with him.

However, it is imperative to find Fabericott and find out what is happening in the town before deciding what to do next.

Zhang Hengfu lowered his head and tried to hide himself behind those rough grasses, while keeping an eye on the movement from all sides. He spent about an hour, turning on the pocket flashlight from time to time, trying to identify the footprints left on the dirt. Zhang Hengfu deliberately picked some muddy roads when he went downstairs for dinner with the young traveler. From above, he could see the footprints left by Fabericott.

In the end, Zhang Heng also found the young traveler by this footprint. Fabericott hid beside an abandoned railway track. Zhang Heng thought he had died when he saw him.

Because his body was motionless and looked like a corpse.

But when Zhang Heng approached, he found that Fabericott's breathing was still stable, and he was just scared to death.

Zhang Heng swayed his body and woke Fabericott out of his nightmare.

The latter screamed unconsciously when he opened his eyes. Good thing Zhang Heng moved fast enough to cover his mouth before he made a sound.

When he saw the face of the man in front of him, Fabericott was surprised and surprised, “Are you back? ”

“Well, how did you sleep here?” Zhang Heng asked, "and also deviated from the route we had previously agreed. ”

“After we split up, I started running in the direction you said, but then I ran into a bunch of monsters, and in order to avoid them, I had to change the route slightly, and I wanted to go back, but then I ran into another bunch of monsters, and I had to hide in the railway pit for a while, and what I didn't expect was that they jumped over my head one after the other. ”

It seemed to recall that horrible scene again, and Fabericott said, "God, they were so close to me that I could see the scales on them, I was scared to death, I didn't think I'd see you again, and if one of them looked down at me, I'd be dead. ”

“Looks like you're lucky.” Zhang Heng also sat next to Fabericott, “can you tell me about the town now? ”

“Of course, I'm sorry, and please forgive my caution, because the story that happened here is ridiculous, and...” Speaking of which, Fabericott hesitated again, "Do you know that there are only two buses here that connect with the outside world? I came by bus in the morning, and I didn't see you in the car at the time, I don't know where you came from, and the people in Newbury Potter said that no other expatriates would come here normally. ”

“I'm from Arkham,” Zhang Heng said in silence, "... ordered to investigate what happened here. ”

“Ah, are you an agent? No wonder you're so good.” Fabericott suddenly realized that his face was full of remorse, "so it also detected the abnormalities here, and there were a lot of legends about it, but I really didn't expect those legends to be true, I should have told you everything I knew earlier, Agent. ”
