Chapter 36 Purgatory on Earth

A shrill cry pierced through several layers of wooden boards, went deep into the dark basement, and got into Balk's ears, making him stiff involuntarily, and his drowsy spirit became tense again by the way. Stretch.

He turned his head and glanced at his side first, and found that his little daughter Shuika was still fast asleep at this time, and he didn't seem to be awakened by the scream, so he was relieved.

However, seeing the dark red blood stain on Shuika's straight face that hadn't completely receded, his expression became even more gloomy uncontrollably.

The riots have continued into the fifth day.

Since Balke first hid in this hidden basement with Huika, who was only a little over two years old, when he realized something was wrong four days ago, he has hardly left this basement in the past four days.

He is very clear that Dro City, the capital of the Dro Kingdom, has already fallen into chaos. Those damn Dro people are hunting them outsiders everywhere. As long as they are caught by them, both he and Shuika will Absolutely cannot escape the tragic fate.

But... What's the use of continuing to hide here?

The materials stored in the basement can't last long at all, and more importantly, there are no medicines here.

Shuika had some signs of a cold yesterday, and now she has symptoms of a fever. Although this made her in a groggy state, there is no need to worry about her unconsciously making a sound and being discovered by the Dro mob outside, but She is just a child over two years old. If she does not receive any treatment, she will not be able to persist sooner or later.

Balk reached out and touched Shuika's forehead. Feel the heat in the palm of your hand. Secretly made up his mind.

anyway. I have to find a way to go out today.

In addition to trying to obtain some medicinal materials to treat Shuika, we also need to find out the situation outside and try to find a way out of this purgatory.

Although Balk knew very well in his heart that even Dro City, the king's capital, had fallen into such a riot, the situation would not be much better even if he left Dro City.

For a foreigner like him, the entire Dro kingdom would be like purgatory.

He is just an ordinary person, and it is almost an impossible task to escape from the large Dro kingdom with a two-year-old child in his arms.

Yet he had no choice.

Rather than staying here and waiting to die. He must gamble.

Balk took the only bottle of water left next to him, and carefully fed Shuika a few mouthfuls with a small cup. After thinking for a while, he picked up the little food left, and chewed it with the remaining water.

The smell of corpses permeating from the wooden boards mixed with the turbid smell in the basement, making the whole basement smell nauseous, and the things in his hands had long since become hard, without the aroma that food should have.

However, he still ate big mouthfuls, trying his best to swallow the food into his stomach.

He knew that his next actions must have sufficient physical support.

Gathering energy while eating. Balk stared at the light projected from the cracks in the planks of the basement entrance above his head.

Wait until this ray of light gradually dims, and finally disappears. Balk took a deep breath, fed Shuika a few more sips of water, and confirmed that although Shuika was still in a semi-comatose state, he was not in too much danger for the time being. Then he gathered his mind and moved closer to the exit.

After listening for a while and confirming that there was no movement outside, Balk quietly pushed open the basement baffle.

The moonlight projected into the house through the window. Balke squinted his eyes and looked around. The first thing that caught his eye was a white body.

This corpse, which had lost all vitality and was naked, was Balck's wife.

Four days ago, thugs from the Dro tribe rushed into Balk's house. Although Balk saw the situation was not good, he hugged Shuika and hid in the basement one step ahead of time, but he went out because of something, and then returned home with his wife and him. Romon, his eldest son, fell into the hands of these thugs.

Balck's wife was gang-raped by thugs, and then finally killed. Romon was also brutally killed by thugs.

Seeing the unrecognizable and mutilated corpse of Romon lying not far from his wife's body, Balk's ashes-like heart couldn't help shaking rapidly.

If it was possible, when he was in the basement listening to the screams of his wife and Romon four days ago, he should have rushed out to fight those thugs.

But for Shuika, he finally endured it.

He himself didn't know how he got here these days, if there was no Shuika, he might have already collapsed.

But now, even Shuika has fallen into a dangerous situation, forcing him, a man who has always been reprimanded by his wife as a coward, to take risks.

After taking a deep look at the corpses of his wife and Romon, Balk didn't move them, but carefully scraped out a layer of fire ash from the already extinguished fireplace, and evenly spread it on his hair.

He is from the Kingdom of Lampari, and he was born with wine-red hair, while the characteristics of the Dro people are naturally gray. If he goes out like this, he will be easily recognized.

After carefully making this camouflage, Balk looked down at himself, smelled it to make sure there was not much eye-catching smell, then took a look at the situation outside, and quietly pushed the door out through the back door.

It was already late at night, and there were no people on this remote street.

But the flames can still be seen in the distance, and from time to time there can be screams and laughter.

Obviously, the thugs of the Dro tribe are still doing murder everywhere.

Balk didn't know how many outsiders like him were in Delo City, but he was sure that there were definitely not many who could survive the riot.

The pharmacy was at the other end of the street, and Balck had to walk across the street to get there.

Fortunately, this street was really remote, and there were no people on the street at this time, so Balck arrived at the pharmacy without any danger.

This pharmacy was run by a person who also came from the Kingdom of Lampari. Because all the special medicinal materials provided by the Moon Shadow Tribe were used. The curative effect is good enough. So usually business is very good.

However, the pharmacy has obviously been ransacked by those thugs now, not only the gate flew to nowhere, but the inside is also a mess.

Using the moonlight and his memory, Balk searched inside for a long time, and finally found some remnants of medicine in a medicine box in a corner.

At this time, he was very thankful that he knew some basic medical knowledge when chatting with the owner of the pharmacy, otherwise he would have no choice but to put the medicinal materials in front of him at this time.

After obtaining the medicinal materials, Balk did not go home immediately, but left the street, trying to explore outside.

He has another mission. It is to find out the situation in the city and prepare for the next escape from Dro City.

Balk's house is located in the west area of ​​Dro City, about three blocks away from the west gate of Dro City, which is not far, but not very close either.

The most important thing is that this road passes through the main road leading to the west city gate, which is not as remote as the street he is currently on.

Sure enough, when Balk crossed two streets and walked onto the main road, he encountered a group of Dro tribes swarming towards him.

Balk's heart tightened, but he tried to look calm on the surface. He greeted him calmly.

"Hey buddy. It's late. Just got back from there?"

A group of people on the opposite side saw Balk, and a young man in the lead greeted him loudly.

Judging from the stumbling appearance of a group of people and the smell of alcohol in their mouths, it can be seen that these guys should have just finished drinking.

Just as Balk was about to respond with a forced smile, he suddenly caught a glimpse of something in the hands of the two Dro tribesmen, his eyes widened, and he couldn't speak anymore.

The things in the hands of the two Dro tribesmen were round, and upon closer inspection, they turned out to be two human heads!

Through the moonlight and the firelight on this street, he could clearly see the numbness on the faces of the two heads, and Balk felt his stomach churning, and he almost vomited out what he had swallowed just now.

Seeing Balk's ugly face, the Dro who greeted just now grabbed Balk's shoulders and said loudly: "Hey, brother, is there anything else you are unhappy about? Don't worry, if you are unhappy , let’s find another foreigner to make you happy. Brothers, do you agree?”

"it is good!"

A group of other Dro people behind them cheered loudly.

Balk forcibly resisted the urge to punch this guy in the face, and said with a smile, "There's nothing to be unhappy about, it just happened to happen..."

Before he finished speaking, two Dro tribesmen surrounded him, and one of them raised a huge wine bottle in his hand and fed it to his mouth. Just a sip of wine. This is a fine wine from the dwarves, and it's great."

Balk didn't dare to drink at this time, and tried his best to hide.

However, how can a drunk person allow others to refuse his drinking, and block the other two Dro tribesmen from grabbing Balk directly, and the Dro tribe forcefully poured it into Balk's mouth with a barrel of wine .

Balke turned his head vigorously, but just bumped into the arm of the Dro tribe, causing the wine bottle in his hand to fly up, and the wine splashed in the air.

The Dro tribesman was not angry, but laughed out loud.

"Okay, brother, so you like to drink so boldly, I like it, come on, come on, I'll..."

His voice stopped abruptly, and he pointed at Balk with a look of astonishment.

Balk was stunned, and suddenly realized that the top of his head was covered with coldness, he was startled, and shouted that he would suffer.

"He has red hair! He is not from our tribe! He is a foreigner from the west!" The Dro tribe who was going to feed Balk suddenly shouted loudly.

At this time, Balk couldn't be so scruples anymore, he used his arms to break away from the two Dro people who were protecting him, then kicked the screaming Dro people in the stomach, turned around and ran away .

The group of Dro people were stunned for a moment before reacting, and immediately chased after them yelling.

Balk knew that it would be impossible to escape on the avenue, so he turned around and rushed towards a side street.

However, as soon as he turned the corner, he saw a group of Dro people walking towards him.

Balk suddenly felt cold.

After all, this is the capital of the Dro Kingdom, and the Dro people are everywhere in this city, and he, a foreigner, may have to fight alone.

But how can he fight against an enemy whose numbers far exceed his countless times?

Looking at the Dro people surrounding him, Balk felt as if he was in an abyss, and deep despair welled up in his heart.

Could it be that he couldn't take Shuika out of this purgatory after all?

At this moment, a slightly weird whistling sound fell from the sky, and then a flame hit the oncoming group of Dro tribesmen.

"boom--"

A violent explosion sounded, and the group of Dro people on the opposite side were all blown up in an instant. (To be continued..)
