Chapter 160 Erchius Ghost 3 (1/2)
After dumping all his Crystal Erchius Fuel at a reasonable place away from the facility, John and Lenny returned to the building and cautiously found an open door so that they could enter.
With the white pistol on his hand and a flashlight on the other, John illuminated their path on those completely dark corridors.
While slowly walking, they saw bloodstains in the ground and wall, corroded holes in the floor and bullet holes all around them.
It was sight that showed the battle that happened in such place.
But there not a single sight of a body.
John was feeling strange as they walked deeper into the facility.
The closer they got to the Overseer's office in the middle of the facility, more signs of the fight were present around them.
They were following the fastest route they found by taking a look at the maps they found around.
After taking a look at the map, John became doubtful that this building was a simple mining facility. The doubts came after seeing how the facility's layout pretty much resemble the standard layout of prisons.
Looking back, John remembered the big fences around the facility and this pretty much confirmed that this place wasn't an usual Mining Facility, but something more, something that apparently Letheia was trying to hide.
”Stop.” Lenny stretched his arm in front of John.
”What is it?” John asked while reading his gun.
”Look.” Lenny pointed in front of them with his flashlight.
John saw what Lenny wanted him to see as soon as the flashlight focused on that specific spot.
It was a body, a pink humanoid body.
”Moontant...” John's face became grim, ”There an Erchius Horror in this moon.”
”Probably, but I don't so.” Lenny said, ”An Erchius Horror and an Erchius Ghost at the same planet? There might have been an Erchius Horror here, but I think it died, and most probably was killed by the Erchius Ghost. I don't know, just a hypothesis.”
”It might be true. There's a lack of information about Erchius life forms such as Erchius Horror, Erchius Ghost and Moontants. Nonetheless, we must tread more carefully from here onwards.”
...
After walking for a few minutes they finally reached the Overseer's Office.
On their way here, they found multiple bodies belonging to Moontants, but they were all dead bodies dropped on the floor.
There was Moontants, but no other type of body beside those pink monsters.
Once the door of the office was open with the combine effort of John and Lenny, they were greeted with the sight of a sparkling clean office, without a single bloodstain or bullet hole, like the situation outside.
The room was filled with computer screens and other technological devices, but what caught John's attention was the appearance of some of the devices.
John approached what appeared to be a fridge and opened it.
There some cans and other food inside.
John took a soda that was at the fridge's door and looked at it.
”Take a look at this.” John approached Lenny that was also investigating the room.
