Chapter 184 A Hymn of the Soul



Garma put on a hood-like headgear and wrapped thick adhesive tape around his wrists, ankles, and other key areas.

This was suggested by Kunkala's mother.

It carries long-handled metal scissors in its hand, a knife on its waist, a weapon resembling an axe wrapped around its tail, and a backpack containing a suitable amount of food and water on its back.

Once everything was ready, Garma reluctantly left the shop, guided by Wu You.

The heavy rain continued, and the sound of rushing water all around gave Garma a strange sense of security.

But things were different once you entered the building where the Cheetos Brothers lived.

Kunkala's mother told him that there were still several monsters roaming inside.

The best way to kill these monsters is to attack their heads. Other attacks are also effective, but they are too slow because they are no longer the fragile Blue People they once were; their vitality has been greatly enhanced.

Garma tried to relax as much as possible.

He climbed up to the third floor via the outdoor emergency staircase hanging on the outside of the building, used tools to remove the exposed metal hinges of the passageway door, and then carefully moved the door open.

“Galma, be careful. There are more than a dozen in the basement where the temperature is relatively high, and one of them is on the fourth floor.”

Even without Wu You's reminder, Garma had already taken extreme caution to the extreme.

Passing by the circular house structures, this slender apartment building, with nine circular houses arranged in a plum blossom pattern on each floor, looks like a plump lentil when viewed from above.

Garma's target is the public toilet at the end of the third floor.

In the stairwell, most of the doors to the houses were open.

Bloodstains were visible everywhere.

A torn corpse leaned against the curved wall, emitting a foul stench of blood mixed with internal organs.

This building originally housed dozens of Blue People, but my mother said there are only a dozen or so monsters inside now. Did the other Blue People escape?

Or were they all eaten? Or perhaps they went outside to find food before the rain started?

With these random thoughts swirling in her mind, Garma walked to the toilet door.

Two long streaks of blood stretched from the door to the stairs, disappearing at the end of the fourth floor.

It seems someone tried to escape into the toilet but failed.

My mother said there's one on the fourth floor, so we have to be careful.

The Qido brothers behind the door began to breathe rapidly, their senses telling them that their rescuers were already outside.

But to their dismay, they didn't hear a sound even though they had their ears pressed against the door.

Apart from the sound of rain outside, a silent fear enveloped the two of them.

Garma wanted to call the people inside out, but he dared not make a sound.

A few seconds earlier, Kunkala's mother suddenly told him that the monster on the fourth floor had quickly moved to the stairwell. Just as he was about to run to a house to take shelter, he made eye contact with the monster that had appeared at the stairwell.

Even Wu You hadn't expected this situation. The alien licker on the fourth floor had just gone crazy and run to the stairwell, or maybe it wanted to go to the basement to warm up.

But by sheer coincidence, they ran into Garma.

This monster moves very fast, and after Wu You discovered it and told Garma, the latter also had time to react.

The stairwells in this building are not long to begin with.

By the time Garma realized what was happening, the monster had already reached the top of the stairs.

Because I had applied some dirt to my body before entering, I barely managed to avoid being smelled, but once I was spotted from the front, I couldn't escape it.

"Roar~~"

The monster roared and crawled over from the curved wall of the staircase.

Wu You couldn't care less about anything else.

One of them encouraged Garma, saying, "Don't be afraid, child. You have to face it eventually."

On the one hand, regardless of whether it was useful or not, they mustered their mental will and forcefully pressed down on the monstrous creature.

Grandpa, the natural enemy, is here!

At the same moment, the monster leaped off the wall and pounced on Garma.

Fortunately, the mental pressure on Wu You was more effective than expected.

When the monster, now a hybrid, jumped up, its entire body was clearly stiff, and it didn't execute the move of pouncing on Garma properly.

With a "bang," the monster seemed to lose its balance and fell in front of Garma.

Garma reacted immediately, using his large shears to block the monster's outstretched hand from grabbing its limbs, and swinging the axe from its tail to smash it hard on the monster's head.

"puff..."

Large amounts of red blood splattered out, but the monster twitched and did not die.

The intense pain temporarily relieved it of Wu You's mental oppression, and it reached out and grabbed Garma's leg.

Wu You thought to himself, "This is bad. If I get caught in this situation, I'm doomed."

"呲流~" a sound.

The monstrous hand slid directly across the duct tape binding Garma's leg.

Garma had coated his leg wraps with grease, making them incredibly slippery.

"Go to hell!"

"Pfft..." "Pfft..." "Pfft..."

...

The large shears and the axe on the tail struck the monster's head repeatedly, knocking it down several times as it tried to stand up.

Blood splattered all over Garma's body.

He only knew to stop when the monster stopped moving completely.

"Huff... huff... huff... huff..."

Wu You could feel Garma's heart rate triple. The only sweat glands on the Blue Man's neck were now so wet that a towel could soak up the sweat.

"Mother! Is it dead?"

By ordinary standards, Garma has done a great job. Someone else might have been paralyzed with fear or lost in a state of confusion.

"It's dead. You did a good job, my child!"

"Has the monster from the basement come out?"

If Wu You hadn't been in an invisible state as an observer, he would definitely have laughed.

Now he finds this cautious Garma quite adorable.

"No, the noise from the rain and thunder is masking the sounds here, but you'd better hurry."

The Cheetos brothers standing at the toilet door were torn between anxiety and deep fear.

They knew someone had come to rescue them, and they also knew that person had definitely encountered that monster.

Although no screams were heard, the Cheetos brothers had become pessimistic.

"People inside, time is of the essence, get out quickly!"

Garma called out softly into the toilet in the dark blue Universal Language, which had a strong local accent.

He knew the people inside could hear him.

The Qido brothers' hearts skipped a beat.

He's still alive!

At the same time, a sense of spiritual encouragement once again came from the void.

Daqiduo gripped the book tightly, exchanged a glance with his younger brother, and then tremblingly opened the toilet door.

The two were startled the moment the door opened.

I barely managed to cover my mouth and stop myself from screaming.

The person who came to rescue them was covered in blood; it was unclear whether it was his own or someone else's.

Looking around, I saw a corpse lying on the ground.

The corpse's head had been split open in many places, and the grotesque angular muscles and blood-red eyes made it clear that this was indeed that kind of monster.

The Chido brothers stared at Garma in disbelief.

Kunkala's mother above, he actually killed one of these monsters!

"Don't just stand there, come with me! The heavy rain won't last much longer, and there are still many people waiting for me to rescue them!"

Garma's anxiety at this moment was simply to save time and leave this unsettling building as quickly as possible.

These words startled the Qiduo brothers once again.

Do you know where the living people are?

Little Qi asked a question subconsciously.

“Mother!” Garma raised her large shears and pointed to the sky. “She is guiding me!”

After saying that, he left with the words "Hurry up and catch up" and turned to walk quickly in the direction he came from.

Upon hearing Garma's reply, the two realized the meaning behind Garma's previous statement.

There are still many people waiting for me to save them, and my mother is guiding me!

At that moment, a feeling of being moved and shocked welled up in the hearts of the Qido brothers.

In my heart, it seemed as if a sacred hymn from the sky, never heard before, was being sung, yet it soothed my soul!

Wu You said that imitating the ethereal melodies of those Catholic hymns and shamelessly humming them is, well, a skill in itself.
