Chapter 33 Old Charlie's Graveyard
Early the next morning, when the sun had just risen, two sneaky figures appeared in the cemetery outside this small town.
These two figures are none other than Karl and the others.
After getting up today, the two of them had a tacit agreement not to mention the conversation last night, as if nothing had happened.
Early in the morning, after checking out the house, the two people left the hotel and sneaked into the cemetery outside the town quietly in the early morning when there were not many people around.
The gravekeeper of the cemetery here is an elderly man. When the two of them came in, the guy was taking a nap in the hut and didn't notice their arrival at all.
After quietly dodging the tomb-keepers, the two of them entered the cemetery, and under Ceryl's careful selection, they chose an old-looking grave.
"Does it have to be the grave soil next to the coffin?"
Karl was still a little reluctant to do this kind of thing of secretly breaking into other people's graves.
"It's not like we're digging out his body, we're just getting some soil. What's there to worry about?"
Ceryl was as heartless as ever and didn't think there was anything wrong with this at all.
"Hurry up, get it done, and then I'll take you to get the gems and that's it."
There was no other way, so Karl had no choice but to take out the [Decapitating Blade] and start digging down hard.
The coffin was not buried too deep, and soon they got what they wanted, a small bag of yellow soil?
"With all due respect, isn't this just ordinary soil?"
Looking at the grave soil in my hand, it is no different from ordinary soil. There is nothing special about it at all.
"It's just ordinary soil."
"Um?"
"The important thing is not the soil itself, but the meaning it contains."
"It's just like the banknotes people use now. It has no corresponding value, but it can represent money."
"Where are you two doing?"
While Seliel was explaining, a shout suddenly sounded in the distance.
"Stand where you are and don't move!"
Looking back, the person who came turned out to be the tombkeeper they had avoided earlier!
The old man woke up at some point and began to inspect the cemetery.
"Hurry up."
Only then will the fool obey and stay where he is.
Two people were secretly playing in the cemetery early in the morning? If they were caught, they would definitely be sent to jail as grave robbers. Stealing corpses is a big crime these days.
Karl just escaped from the dungeon of the castle. It would be too exciting if he entered the palace for the second time so soon!
So they decisively chose to escape.
"I told you to stop!"
The gravekeeper behind him was still shouting. After seeing that Carl and the two ignored his warning, he raised the shotgun in his hand and fired a shot into the sky.
"boom!"
After a gunshot, he chased and continued to warn.
"If you don't stop, the next shot will be aimed at you!"
The gravekeeper's name is Charlie, and he is 60 years old this year.
When he was young, he used to be a hunter in the village. When he got old, he retired and chose to be a tombkeeper in the town cemetery.
It was already a peaceful retirement life, and nothing would happen in this kind of country grave. He was ready to start enjoying his slowly aging life. After all, aging is a British romance.
As a result, this morning, when he woke up from a nap and put on his favorite shotgun to patrol the cemetery as usual, he discovered two sneaky guys doing something in the cemetery!
How dare someone dare to do such a shameful thing in the territory under the jurisdiction of old Charlie!
He immediately walked over and warned them.
As a result, after his warning, these two guys didn't seem to care about the shotguns in their hands, and they still ran away.
Old Charlie knew that his old legs and feet could not catch up, so in anger, he raised his shotgun and pulled the trigger at the two of them.
Although he is getting older, his shotgun accuracy has not deteriorated.
The shotgun accurately hit the smaller of the two men, but the result was different from what old Charlie thought...
The figure who was shot just staggered for a moment, and then seemed to have no reaction at all. He completely ignored the damage from the shotgun and continued to run away without losing any speed.
Seeing this scene, the tombkeeper broke into a cold sweat. What kind of monster is this?
He is very aware of the power of his shotgun. Even a large beast cannot withstand his shot. An ordinary person will definitely fall to the ground and be unable to move after the last shot. In serious cases, death will occur on the spot.
But after this guy was hit by one shot, he acted like a normal person!
For a moment, strange legends such as Frankenstein and zombies emerged in old Charlie's mind.
Did you encounter something dirty?
Now he didn't dare to chase anymore. The lost old Charlie ran back quickly. When he passed the place where the two figures were before, he saw that the soil next to a cemetery had been turned up!
A large amount of fresh soil was piled next to the tombstone, and old Charlie could even see a corner of the coffin underground.
"my God."
This sight seemed to calm him down.
He prayed with a trembling tone, and then summoned up his last courage to return to the location of the guy he had just hit.
As a result, there was no blood stain at all on the ground.
Old Charlie was quite sure that his shot had hit the target, and he was not so dizzy yet.
But it was hit, where is the blood?
Could it be that the person he just hit was really not a human being?
Old Charlie became more and more frightened as he thought about it. At this time, he felt that the air around him was much colder than when he first woke up.
Trembling with fear, old Charlie had no intention of staying here any longer.
He quickly walked toward the church in the town at his own pace.
"God bless."
On the other side, Carl and Ceryl were just like what old Charlie saw, running away without looking back.
When the cemetery was completely out of sight, they stopped to rest.
Holding on to a tree on the side of the road, Karl gasped and asked.
"I said, that shot just now hit you, right?"
"yes."
Cyril immediately pulled out a warhead from her body and showed it to Karl.
"Human beings in this era are really powerful. Although I have been hit by revolvers, this shotgun is obviously more powerful."
If you wait a few more years, there will be something even more powerful!
"There shouldn't be anything to do now, right?"
"Of course, as long as we return to London, we will go to your boss's house to get the gems."
"My boss?"
"He's the boss of your company. He hasn't held a funeral yet. Let's take the opportunity to sneak in. I know where his little treasury is."
The implication is that his boss was also devoured.
"Is it too risky to go back to London now?"
"Believe me, no one will care about a little guy like you."
