Chapter 80: Rebellion in the Cemetery (2)
Rickan stomped his foot, two small green bean eyes constantly looking around, intuition and experience telling him that someone was staring at him right now.
'Maybe it's some dark creature!' Rykan thought.
Greenland's nights are always so scary, especially now, more than a decade later, when he first came to Greenland to beg for a living, the nights here are not so dangerous.
If it is in the slums, except for the daring adventurers like Rickan, even the gang members will not go alone, and the homeless and beggars will choose to huddle at night, because they are too weak and can easily become the 'prey' of something at night.
It's easy to hear insects in the rest of Greenland, but in the slums, there are 'things' that don't even let go of bugs.
Rickan was not too worried about his fellow people in the Greench community, as they were numerous, had lived in Greenland, knew better than him how to survive in Greenland, and they had a scavenger called 'Crunch', and the average 'squeak' would not choose to provoke them.
He is now in the cemetery in Greenland, and the cemetery is on the outskirts of Greenland, near the south gate of Greenland, a piece of land has been divided, most of the civilians in the city will choose to buy a piece of land here and bury the bones of their relatives, while the poor people can only choose to bury the body in the underground of the mountains outside the city, because the cemetery of the cemetery costs money.
The reason why he is here is because Du Wei is looking for him, probably to talk about the Greenland martial law......
He wasn't so sure.
A cemetery is a place like a nest for dark creatures, a place for their activities.
Is there anything more ridiculous than the sudden appearance of a creature in the cemetery at night?
Wandering spirits only appear at night, and they are able to sense the presence of life, but Rickan's stealth with the power of shadows is not so easy to see.
Besides, he's outside the cemetery, backed by a rusty fence, and the ghosts won't notice.
The Grave Keeper has not yet appeared, and those who light the oil lamps will not be attacked by the dark creatures, but will attract the attention of the undead, who are dedicated to killing the dead and restoring peace to their souls, and they will not allow the gangsters to appear in the 'Sacred Cemetery'.
Even people like Rickan and Du Wei who choose to meet in the cemetery will be driven away or even attacked by them.
Not every city's cemetery has a grave keeper, but the civilians of Greenland have not been harmed by the undead for so many years, and a large part of it is thanks to the existence of these grave keepers, otherwise in the darkness of this decaying city, those undead who have come back from the dead will definitely not let go of any living life.
Rickan's little ears moved, and he turned his head to look to the left.
He heard the sound of deliberately lightened breathing and footsteps, was it Du Wei?
He didn't ask out loud, because he wasn't quite sure if it was Dewey.
"Rekan, Rekan......," the dark gray cloaked black marketeer whispered.
A hand on his left arm made his heart skip a beat, and then he heard the familiar voice: "It's me." ”
Du Wei breathed a sigh of relief and turned away.
Rickan looked up at him and cautiously asked, "What's wrong, why did you suddenly call me here to meet?"
"Greenland martial law these days......"
Du Wei took a deep breath to calm his heartbeat, and then said: "I just got rid of the people who followed me yesterday, and I originally planned to leave the city tomorrow, but I didn't expect martial law to be there, so I wanted to discuss with you about leaving Greenland." ”
A black-gloved hand stretched out from under the cloak, clear enough for Rykan to read Dewey's sign language clearly.
'Stalker...... Didn't shake off ...... Gangster people. ’
Didn't get rid of the stalker, the stalker is a gangster!
"Squeak, squeak, squeak?"
This is probably a kind of 'secret language', as only rats use this kind of rough language.
Dewey informed himself through the Rat community, and Rickan knew that Dewey had learned the language to use as a secret language.
'Killing?' that's what Rykan said.
Seeing Du Wei bow slightly, Rickan frowned again, to be honest, he was very reluctant to kill people in Greenland, especially now, which required a lot of risk.
'Yes Mister' Rykan is not kind, it is only because he is more responsible that he is nicknamed by the adventurer.
Now that Greenlandch was under full martial law, he was not allowed to enter, and he didn't want to make a mistake at such a time.
Du Wei can't bring enough benefits to himself, and letting him take him away from Greenland is already considered benevolent, and besides that, he wants to let himself accompany him to kill people?
"No matter how much money you pay, I won't do it!"
It was because he was careful enough that Rykan could become an extraordinary powerhouse as a rat people, otherwise he would have died in a corner of Greenland.
Rickan narrowed his eyes and warned, "Don't go too far, it's martial law!"
"Of course I do!" Du Wei was agitated, "but do you know how dangerous I am now?
Rykan took a deep breath and his eyes flashed fiercely, "You're threatening me?"
Du Wei opened his mouth and calmed down under the cold gaze of Rickan.
"No, no, no, I'm too impatient!"
Rykan nodded, "Even if you confess me, I won't be fine, after all, the things you told me are well known, so you'd better not have that kind of thought!"
Rickan felt that he had to warn Du Wei that he was not his slave or servant, and that he would not let him drive him, and let him realize this matter earlier, and then things would go more smoothly.
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Du Wei hurriedly nodded in response, because he knew that Rickan really dared to make a move.
"Then we should go back......"
Rickan's voice stopped abruptly, and he pulled out the dagger at his waist and looked around warily.
"We're surrounded!" Rickan said in a deep voice.
Du Wei was taken aback and looked nervously.
He thought they were surrounded by gangsters, until he smelled the stench of corpses, followed Rykan's gaze stiffly, and saw a rotting face lying on the fence of the cemetery, staring intently at him.
Du Wei shoved a finger into his mouth, bit it, and didn't dare to let himself scream.
"Get ready to fight!" Rykan took a deep breath, "I think we're in big trouble!"
Du Wei looked around, hurriedly pulled out the dagger at his waist, and slowly approached Rickan with his feet.
He's just a black marketeer, and although he has the ability to fight, he would definitely die here if he wasn't surrounded by so many ghouls!
Du Wei's breathing was disordered, his steps were vague, and he knew at a glance that he was not a comrade-in-arms who could be relied on, but in this case, it would be good to have someone who could fight side by side.
At least fifteen ghouls!
Rykan initially judged that there were at least fifteen ghouls surrounding them, and these ghouls must have been controlled by someone, otherwise they would not have waited until they had gathered so many before surrounding them.
"Why did you make an appointment to meet at the cemetery?
Rickan couldn't help but complain, if it weren't for Du Wei, he wouldn't be here now, let alone encounter these things.
Du Wei smiled bitterly, "You just let me have my brain pumped! Can you deal with these ghouls?"
"If I were alone, I would have been able to run. ”
Instead of answering directly, Rickan complained, but it was almost the same as 'for sure'.
Du Wei was overjoyed, and Rickan said that meant that he could not only deal with these ghouls, but also protect himself from the hands of these ghouls.
"Well, please!" Du Wei stammered.
