Indescribable cyberpunk

Wrapped in a gray cotton-padded uniform, the man trotted along the street against the cold night wind. The howling wind passed through the alleys on both sides of the street, making a strange low roar, like the howl of a wild beast, desperately hitting people's sleeves. And drill into the neck.

The man ran for a while, enduring the darkness that enveloped him from all sides, hunched his neck, clasped his hands on his chest, and covered less than half of the logo of the Sixth Steelmaking Plant.

Dong dong dong~

Knocking on the door of the house, soon there were footsteps inside.

The door was opened, and standing inside was his wife, who was holding a candle and looking worried.

"Goren, how's the situation?"

She welcomed her husband into the house and asked while patting the snowflakes on his shoulders.

The candle flame swayed under her movements, flickering on and off, and the shadows of the two people on the walls on both sides were constantly twisting and swelling.

As workers living near a steelmaking plant, the roar of gunfire from the steelmaking plant before and after the power outage last night kept the two of them awake all night, for fear of something happening to the factory. You must know that this job represents The source of income for their family.

Because of this, early this morning, Goron wanted to go out to inquire about the situation. However, when the government was distributing supplies, he had to go to the relief point first to register and move items. He had no free time until the afternoon. .

The results were deplorable.

"Something happened, Lina, we may have to go to your parents' place for a while."

Goron had no intention of walking into the house, so he took his wife's arm and whispered.

Their children were playing with building blocks inside, and the collision of wooden blocks could be faintly heard from the entrance. Goren didn't want to scare the children.

"What's wrong? Why do I have to go to my parents' place all of a sudden? The power outage will last for several days. They are also in trouble right now."

The solemn expression on Goron's face obviously frightened Lina. She didn't pay attention when her fingers holding the candle were stained with wax. She just took a step forward and said.

"I heard from Mr. Linde that there seemed to be some kind of monster inside the steelworks. You know, his home is right next to the steelworks. Last night, through his window, he saw more than a dozen security airships coming from other neighborhoods. Flying into the steelmaking plant, there was the sound of gunfire and the roar of monsters. He didn't see the airship of the Security Department flying out of the steelmaking plant!"

There are many residential buildings around Steelmaking Plant No. 6, most of which are houses for workers of the steelmaking plant. As for Mr. Linde mentioned by Goren, he is the person in charge of a workshop in Steelmaking Plant No. 6, so his residence It's only one street away from the steel plant.

Security airships are extremely rare in low-level communities. There were more than a dozen of them at once last night, and it was difficult not to attract attention.

"Mr. Linde's friend who lives in Community No. 30 contacted him this morning. From the 35th to the 40th, all five communities were affected by power outages and network outages. There were also government propaganda vehicles in the news outside. They say there was a malfunction in the central system, but that’s all lies. The truth is that the power outage was caused by the appearance of monsters!”

The information he learned not long ago made Golem still a little excited. He looked at the supplies distributed by the government in the corridor. The little thought he had made before disappeared without a trace, and was replaced by the supplies from the government. Panic welled up in my heart.

Yes, you should have thought of it earlier, right?

The Qianfan City government actually gives free things to civilians like them in the lower-class communities. Good things that could only appear in dreams in the past have become a reality. There must be a conspiracy behind this!

"Monsters, you mean those monsters that are sources of mental pollution outside Qianfan City?"

For people living in super cities, monsters that are the source of mental pollution often only exist in the news and propaganda.

"God knows what kind of monster it is. Anyway, Mr. Linde has already contacted the airship to prepare for evacuation. I have only one idea in my mind right now. Leave here immediately. I have thought about it. I will call my parents later. Ask them to meet up with your parents, and our two families will pool our savings together, take an airship to the community above to evacuate, and then come back after the government declares everything is fine!"

"But there are other expenses for the accommodation of the two families."

Linna was a little hesitant. Although her family had some savings, they couldn't bear to spend this level of money, so she subconsciously said.

"Someone is about to get into trouble and you still care about the money. Do you think life or money is more important?"

As the head of the family, Golem still showed the decisiveness a man should have at this time.

"I'm going to pack things. Does your phone still have battery?"

"There is still 10%, which has not been used much today. I will contact my parents."

Pushing his wife's shoulder, he asked her to quickly start tidying up. With his free hand, he took out his cell phone from his pocket and dialed his parents' number. He walked towards the living room as he spoke.

The two old men didn't understand what Goron did. At first, they thought he was just looking for trouble, so Goron had to sit on the sofa in the living room and repeat what he had just said to his wife.

"dad."

The son's voice came from the side. Goron, who was talking to the two old men, pointed to the mobile phone and then waved his hand to signal him to be quiet.

At this time, he didn't care whether his children would be frightened by the content of his words. The more important thing was to find a way to convince his parents first.

"Dad, my building blocks"

The child looked at the half-missed building blocks on the ground, then looked at the kitchen next to him, and patted the armrest of the sofa with a trembling voice.

"Dad will play with you later. I'm talking to your grandparents now. You can play by yourself first."

Goron didn't pay attention or had no time to care about his son's condition. Without looking back, he pushed his son's shoulders and asked him to go away. Naturally, the strength of a few-year-old child could not resist his father's strength, so he staggered back a few steps. He turned around and looked at the kitchen, which was shrouded in darkness with the door open.

Children are always sensitive to changes in things in the outside world. The darkness that was common in the past now looks a little weird.

Old door frame edges.

The dark and slender tentacles are slowly retracting, dragging two triangular building blocks.

At the same time, more terrifying tentacles exuding a nightmarish aura are emerging from the darkness. Shadows that should have been nothingness are now like thick smoke that has been restrained for a long time and is waiting to erupt.

What are they expecting.

Swipe~

Goron, who was on the phone, suddenly heard the muffled sound of heavy objects being dragged behind him, and subconsciously turned around to check.

Nothing at all

wrong.

Where is the son?

"Anthony, where are you?"

He called to the entrance corridor, but there was no response. Goron was startled.

This was his home, and his son was behind him a few seconds ago. He shouldn't have worried about anything, but there was always a lingering sense of horror in his mind.

Phew~

There was a sudden, disgusting splashing sound in the kitchen, which sounded a bit like the sound of water leaking out of a broken sewer pipe.

"Anthony, are you in the kitchen? Now is not a good time to play hide and seek. Come out quickly!"

Putting down his cell phone temporarily, he picked up the candle on the low table in front of him, got up and walked to the kitchen. He noticed the building blocks next to the door frame, and his tone was a little urgent.

However, when he walked to the kitchen door, he raised the candle in his hand and let its light shine into the kitchen.

Goron suddenly lost the ability to speak not because he didn't want to speak, but because what appeared in front of him was something he couldn't explain in words at all.

Large balls of black goo were spewing out from the kitchen sink. They were spreading unbridled in the small kitchen. In fact, when Goren discovered this phenomenon, they had already occupied one-third of the kitchen. , part of which even spreads to the ceiling.

The dark and sticky tentacles were still crawling everywhere in the kitchen. Goron suddenly saw a triangular building block slowly sinking into the black mass on the edge of the pool. As if he thought of something, he frantically pointed the candle toward that Throw it over.

The dim candlelight showed an indescribably terrifying color on those lumps, and the psychedelic phosphorescence spread like a ghost in the kitchen.

Goren took a step forward and stretched out his hand as if to save something. However, the next second he was forced by the fear in his heart and the instinct of his body to turn around and run towards the corridor.

Amid his wife's shouts of surprise that turned into extreme terror, Goren trembled and tried to open the door handle. However, before he could succeed, countless tentacles pulled out from the darkness behind him and completely wrapped around his body.

Before completely losing consciousness, Goron finally opened the door and used his remaining body senses to feel the wind and snow pouring in from outside.

In a trance.

He saw that there seemed to be trees growing on the street at the door.

No!

It was not a plant, but an amorphous mass of viscous liquid.

It is constantly expanding, branching out with countless tentacles performing a crazy dance!

The deep winter wind and snow cannot stop it even a little bit.

It's too late!

Goron thought so
