Ultraman in the world of grams

Chapter 174

thump...

The people outside knocked slowly, very patiently and rhythmically.

thump...

The deep voice permeated the night and clearly entered William's ears...

thump...

The sound of knocking on the door was mixed with the sound of a violent heartbeat, and each knock seemed to be knocking on William's heart.

William stared fixedly at the door.

The previous fear made him realize immediately that this was not harassment, and the danger was indeed coming.Although he didn't know the origin of the danger, he instinctively became vigilant and calculated that no matter how the situation develops, he needs to take the lead in the coming crisis.

However, when the sense of crisis brought by the vague clues suddenly turned into a real danger, that huge shock turned into an almost substantive force that almost crushed him.He didn't have any luck, thinking that this kind of temptation would be a misunderstanding.

There is no deadbolt on the door, and the door can be pushed open with a light push, and people outside can come in at any time.

William knew in his heart that this ordinary door would definitely not be able to withstand the attack of monsters outside the door, especially if there was no door bolt!

He didn't know what was going on outside. In the dark, the very vague noises at night would be amplified, and the knock on the door seemed to be the devil in hell calling him.

His hands were sweating, but the geologist who had gone through many things calmed down at this moment.

Although William was just an ordinary scholar who didn't know anything at first, all the way to the present, in just a few days, he has encountered more than most investigators have experienced in a lifetime.

Right now, the brain is running fast, analyzing the situation in front of it.

The captain had warned him not to open the door at night.

Captain Linden had been here three days ago, and he probably knew far more about Innsmouth than he did.And as an experienced expedition leader, he will not give an unreliable warning at will.

Especially, if this place is very dangerous, the captain will not rest assured that ordinary people will settle here.

After all, apart from him, there were other people on the ship in the Gilman Hotel who settled here.

This room is indeed very old, and it doesn't even have a latch. As long as you think about it, people from the outside can definitely come in, and you won't knock on the door so obediently.

In other words, as long as you are in the room, there is no danger for the time being?

Why is that?

some kind of rule?

Or for other reasons?Is it related to the weird continent they came from?

Did anyone in the other room hear it?

Or was he the only one who noticed this weird voice?

His thoughts were like lightning, and William had many guesses in his heart, but there was no accurate basis to confirm his guesses.

He looked around the room. Among his luggage was the double-barreled shotgun he had bought in Boston. After all, when he encountered the rotten monster before, he suffered a big loss because he didn't have a weapon.

Although, these ordinary guns may not be effective against those outside.

He also wants Ms. Ellis's mysterious rune gun, or something like the captain's, but unfortunately, he has no idea how to get those guns...

I don't know if it will be useful to find a church and soak it in holy water...

William couldn't be sure what was outside, how much there was, whether the gunpowder would work, and unknown fear shrouded the oppressive room.

He took out the double-barreled shotgun and stared at the door with the gun.

Can't open the door anyway.

"Who's outside?"

He asked in a low voice, and looked out the door in anticipation.

There was a sound like a grunt coming out of the throat, or a fish spitting bubbles. It seemed to be English, but it didn't seem to be.

William couldn't confirm what was being said outside at all, but the tone made him feel a little uncomfortable all over.

He wasn't even sure if the other party could understand English.

"Get out of here quickly!"

He yelled in a serious tone, clutching the double-barreled shotgun in his arms.

thump... thump...

There were two more knocks on the door.

The people outside didn't know if they heard his words, but it was obvious that it didn't want to leave.

William still didn't open the door to fight it.

Can't open the door.

He warned himself.

But can we just wait here right now? Ms. Ellis outside is not in a good condition. As for Professor Wilson, he hasn't even seen him since he woke up!

The small, unbolted room seemed to have become a prison for the hapless William.

In this not-so-closed room, William felt suffocated.

He has to find a way!

Since the door cannot be opened, is there another way to leave here?

William turned his gaze to the window that had just been opened.

…………

He pushed hard on the window sill and leaned his body out of the window. The wind carried the stench of fish from nowhere, and the smell outside was worse than that inside the house.

William wondered why they always seemed to be stuck with seafood along the way.

Those fish and seafood are always hovering on their way forward like a lingering haze.

Whether it's fish turned into rotting flesh and slime, or eerie continents littered with fish carcasses, similar monsters stalk the streets these days.

William took a deep breath and forced himself not to think about those messy things.

He stepped carefully on the bump outside the hotel, trying to focus on his feet.

There happened to be a balcony under his room. Although it looked dilapidated, it could at least provide him with a place to stay.

Fastening the barrel of the gun to his belt, William spent a lot of energy before finally turning over to the balcony on the lower floor.

The balcony is full of mud and garbage, which makes people frown, but the windows here are still open.

William didn't want to break into this room, he wanted to find Ellis or Captain Linden as soon as possible, so he just glanced in casually.

But when he saw the person sleeping soundly on the bed by the window, the geologist instantly lost his composure.

It turned out to be his friend, Howard Wilson!

For a moment, he almost froze in place in surprise.

Fortunately, he calmed down soon and stared at Professor Wilson in the window.

Professor Wilson slept restlessly. He tossed and turned on the bed, curled up into a ball, and his body was still shaking.

He hugged himself tightly, like a baby, as if he wanted to gain an illusory sense of security.

His lips were twitching, as if he was murmuring something non-stop.
