Host, Please Be Honest! What Exactly Are You?

Chapter 501 A Walking Plague

M-M-M-MONSTER!

Those words were on the lips of many who threw their heads behind their trembling shoulders, only to bear witness to the most horrific thing their eyes could ever take in.

Ahhhh!

It burns!

The vision burned their eyes, as many found they were running and puking all at once.

F***!

Some couldn't even run, only staying still with quaking legs and weak reflexes that refused to budge no matter what.

What... what... What was this?

They didn't know what it was, but if Dorian was here he would tell them they were looking at a Mummy!

Good God of science!

The mummy was tall and gaunt towering over a few frozen people with an eerie, dominant presence.

Its body was wrapped in once-white bandages that were now stained with grim beige from countless years underground.

These wrappings were frayed at their edges with some loosely hanging on the skin revealing the belly-churning rotting flesh beneath.

How to say it?

Many showed the creature was completely covered because the few parts like his face, belly, upper arms and thighs were all exposed causing them to puke at every turn.

What a hideous sight!

Ahhh!

Someone missed their step, tripping and falling on a square they had not proven to be a trap or not.

Everyone who was still alive, quickly learned the hard way, only moving on the areas Harvey jumped on.

But the moment they saw the menacing creature running so fiercely, the unfortunate man stepped on a square, instantly falling to his death.

F***!

That's how scary the monster looked.

Its sunken eye sockets housed nothing in them, except worms and all sorts of insects swimming in it.

One look at its overly long nails made everyone terrified as the creature jumped several feet high, covering an impossible distance before using its growing blade-like nails swords to slash the neck of the one who was holding the black coin earlier.

It happened so fast in the blink of an eye that Harvey, Ashaku and the few remaining others didn't have time to react.

But the moment the creature raised his cruel empty hollow eyes to stare at them, everyone knew what they had to do ---- RUN!!

(●□●)

.

Unlike the rest, Harvey's feet were quick to react, grabbing a hold of the trembling Ashaku and running forward with every fiber of his being.

No! No! No! No!

The door was almost closing, and the creature behind was busy slaughtering their crew at every turn.

The walls were still closing in and the sounds of many dying echoed behind them.

Zz-Zzz!

The Communications were still not working and for the first time in his life, Harvey knew what true fear was.

And then, there were 4.

… only 4 of them left.

"Go! Go! We will hold it off!"

"Sir, it's been a pleasure working with you!"

No!!!!

Harvey felt pain in his heart, watching 2 of his subordinates take out weapons and continuously blast bullets at the unscientific creature leaping on the closing walls and coming their way.

The walls had now closed the space so much it looked like a wide hallway.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Bullets flashed within the space, but the unearthly monster moved even quicker, moving like Spiderman, jumping on the corners of the walls like crazy.

Reaching the door at the nick of time, Harvey quickly pushed Ashaku through, before giving one last look behind only to see his friends massacred by the ghoulish creature.

Roar!!!~

Without hesitation, it rushed towards him, stretching its long nails even further.

~Bubuum. Bubuum.

Harvey fell through the closing door on his butt, watching it close just before the creature's nails could pass through and kill him off.

His heart was drumming loudly when he heard the creature on the other side scratching the closed doors crazily.

Eyes staring at the door in fascinated horror, Harvey couldn't bring himself to move just yet.

"D-D-Doc... did... Did we just see what we saw?"

Ashaku nodded shakingly. "M... monster..."

Sitting on the sandy grounds while listening to the creature screeching on the doors, they once again confirmed it did happen.

But just then, all screeching sounds ended and their microphones and cameras could now work, with no more static noises flooding their ears.

[Ashaku! Ashaku! Are you okay?]

[DAMMIT! What's going on? Why did everything suddenly go off as though there was some interference around the tomb?]

[Leftnanent Harvey! Is that blood? What's going on? Who is injured? And how come the mics of the others aren't responding?]

Apart from Harvey and Ashaku, they equipped 3 others with mics and cameras.

So seeing that only Harvey and Ashaku's mics and cameras were on, how can they not worry, especially with all the blood and dirt on them?

Ashaku wanted to report everything, but Harvey suddenly held his arm, shaking his head from side to side.

He more than everyone else knew that should they tell the real truth, they might be immediately sent away from the expedition and told to rest, lest they get more 'hallucinations' about monsters and whatnot.

Many might think they went through such a great ordeal of losing people in this tricky tomb that they made up seeing a monster that doesn't exist.

Trust him, psychiatrists would immediately think of a million and one reasons for them 'hallucinating' a monster in broad daylight, even though he, Lieutenant Harvey, was someone who has gone through several military missions in his life.

As a lieutenant, do you think he hasn't had his fair share of deaths before?

So why would he be shaken so much by the deaths of his comrades here?

Sure, it crushed his heart seeing as they were very close to him.

But his grief wasn't to the point where it would make him hallucinate to see a monster, okay?

Harvey knew that no matter who they told their tale to, it would sound ridiculous.

So why bother? Only when people see it for themselves will they know how true it is

Of course, he still wanted to remain on the scene so he could secretly fight off whatever creature was haunting the tomb.

Thinking like this he quickly answered everyone's questions, insinuating the rest died from the many traps within.

The creature didn't seem to be attracted by bullets... So what can they do to kill it?

Puking at the side, Harvey still couldn't get the monster's image off his mind.

Terrible!

'... I must never let it escape from the tomb, because once on the surface... it might become a walking plague!'
