Reborn In The Apocalypse: It Had Always Been You Novel - Chapter 111

Chapter 111 Bloody Basement

Su Shanshan took a step back and touched the wall. She felt a sticky sensation. Her hand was covered in a layer of red. She took a whiff and the pungent smell of blood hit her nose. Only then did she realize that the entire wall here was stained with blood. However, because it had been too long and had been stained with too much blood, the wall had turned black. She had not noticed it right away.

The floor was sticky to the touch, and the color was the same as the wall. It was not difficult to guess that the ground had been soaked in blood.

Su Shanshan was shaken. She was puzzled, but she felt no other emotion. After all, the last thing in the apocalypse was a lack of dead people and blood. What infuriated her was that the blood belonged to infants, and that the people who killed them were humans.

How could a small village find so many babies? Perhaps the children’s biological parents were among the murderers.

In the apocalyptic era, human hearts were scarier than zombies!

Su Shanshan closed her eyes and checked the heads of these infants. She did not find anything unusual. Their skin was warm and soft. Other than their ears—their ears were stiff and cold.

Su Shanshan walked around a platform and found a small hidden door. When she opened it, a foul smell wafted out. Suppressing her anger, Su Shanshan went to investigate. There was a carcass, a headless animal carcass.

She opened the other platform doors and found that all of them led to headless animal carcasses. The only difference was that these animals were different. There were puppies, cats, and even a tiger.

Recalling what Gu Jincheng said, these people used some method to put the infant’s head on an animal’s body and then created a half-human, half-beast monster for their use.

She re-examined the surroundings, and not finding any other information, she went to the place where she had just landed. She took out the Tang sword from her space and stabbed it at the stone wall, then leaped out of the entrance. Su Shanshan told Gu Jincheng her discovery.

Gu Jincheng pondered for a moment and said, “Yes, I already know who it is.”

Su Shanshan was surprised. “Who is it?” she asked.

Gu Jincheng glanced at her but did not answer. Instead, he shouted, “Since you’re here, come out!”

Just as Su Shanshan was feeling puzzled, a group of people walked out from behind the pile of grain. The leader was Wang Hu, whom she had just met. Behind him was Wang Da and the villagers. They were all here.

The villagers in the village looked angry. Wang Da questioned directly, “I took you in out of goodwill. How could you investigate our village’s secret base without permission?”

“Do you want to take us in or kill us to accomplish your goal?” Gu Jincheng said coldly.

“You really found out.” Wang Hu asked Wang Da to back down and approached Gu Jincheng.

The current him was completely different from before. His face was dark and ruthless, and he did not look like an 11-year-old at all.

Su Shanshan stood up and went in front of Gu Jincheng, blocking his contact with Wang Hu.

Gu Jincheng paused slightly and put away the superpower that he had secretly accumulated. The feeling of being protected behind someone for the first time made him feel a little strange, and a hint of unknown emotions surged in his heart.

Wang Hu stopped as well. He glanced at Su Shanshan and smiled innocently. “Sister, are you worried that I’ll hurt Uncle?”

Sister? Uncle?

This greeting made Gu Jincheng’s face darken. He turned his palm around and a bolt of lightning shot at Wang Hu. Wang Hu took a step back in time, but his hair got burnt by the residual power of the lightning, emitting white smoke.

Wang Hu touched his hair, but whatever was left of his hair fell off. He hurriedly touched the remaining hair on his head. After counting carefully, his expression darkened as he roared, “I only have three strands of hair left.”

He pressed the hair in his hand to his scalp as if to reattach it, but he knew that was impossible. He looked at the hair in his hand with a dark expression and said in a sinister voice, “Kill them!”
