Chapter 220: Deep in the Basement

From the looks of it, these humans were probably the survivors of this world.

Pierce looked at these corpses and made a bold guess. After all, there were no corpses in the empty towns on the land.

Were all the corpses buried here?

However, this was only Pierce’s guess. He was not sure if his guess was right. He slowly cleared a path through the corpses.

The others were the same. With the surge of divine power, a straight path was instantly cleared among the corpses.

But why was it still a town this time?

Pierce couldn’t help but want to complain. After all, ever since he came to the dark side of this world, he had only seen towns and churches. Other than that, he had seen nothing else.

This world was really f*cking strange!

At this moment, Pierce checked the hint system. The golden red words once pointed toward the depths of this town.

They felt that it would be the last stop.

Pierce was relieved. After all, he had been in this dark side for almost two to three days now. He missed the outside world where there was a sun.

As the divine power was released, the golden light ball emitted hot light. Then, Pierce and the others walked deeper into the town!

The structure of this town was almost the same as the outside towns. So, they just had to walk to the center of the town and find the church.

In the towns of this world, churches seemed to represent some things like monsters and secret places.

As they moved forward, the surrounding scenery changed slightly. There were corpses everywhere, of men, women, and children. From the style of some clothes, he could tell that they were unique, at least he had never seen such clothes.

It seemed like this world did come from a parallel world. After all, the buildings here looked like those of medieval times.

The biggest difference between this town and the towns outside was that there were still remains of food left in the buildings here, although they had become moldy.

Pierce observed for a moment before slowly walking out and continuing toward the center.

After all, it was just some buildings, and there was probably no living person in this town. This place seemed to have experienced a few hundred years of history.

Pierce looked up at the ceiling, which was the highest point in the basement. It was formed from some soil, and there were no decorations on it. It looked ordinary.

After some investigation, Pierce finally realized that this place was like a sanctuary. Perhaps something had happened outside that forced them to hide here.

He did not know what had happened, but they were all dead. As for the lack of food and starving to death, Pierce felt that it was impossible. After all, there were still remains of food in every house in the town.

This meant that these people did not starve to death. Instead, they might have encountered something like a virus or a plague.

It was indeed possible. After all, in this chaotic era, there were indeed many viruses.

At the thought of this, Pierce put up a barrier around himself. It would be terrifying if there was really a virus here. After all, Pierce was still a human, or a half-human.

After about half an hour, Pierce and the others finally arrived at the center of the town.

However, when they reached the center, the scene before him made Pierce raise his eyebrows in surprise.

The tall church that symbolized the town did not exist. There was only a simple wooden hut here.

Seeing this simple wooden hut, Pierce looked around. The surroundings did not match this wooden hut. The surroundings were residential-style houses made of bricks, and the originally gorgeous church was made of wood here.

Pierce pushed the wooden door of the hut open. There was a soft sound as Pierce walked in.

The scene inside stunned him.

The only things inside were a wooden bed, a table, a stool, a writing table, and a few candlesticks that were already melted.

Most importantly, there was a corpse on the writing table. According to the dressing of the corpse, it was probably a male.

What was it writing on the writing table? It seemed to have died suddenly.

At this moment, Pierce saw a scroll under the corpse.
