Chapter 2:Explore the II layer

"Chemis? Are you all right?

"Are you crying?" The old pony looked at me, and he stroked my head with his hoof

"No... Just...... I really don't know what to do!"

"You're a doctor, and you have to deal with this "The old pony wiped away my tears.

"I can't do it! I don't believe in myself "I put my hooves over my head, and the old pony move my hooves down.

He looked down at me. "what do you not believe in yourself?"

"My ability "I kept my head down and didn't want the old pony to see my eyes

"Chemis... You...... "

***

"Chemis? Are you all right?"

"No...... I...... What?" I looked around. A purple mare looked at me anxiously.

"What do you seem to be thinking? What's the matter? "The mare put her hoof on my forehead, and she suspected I had a cold. I smiled and said, "It's nothing！ Just think of some past events... "

The mare let out a sigh when she heard that I was all right. She looked very weak for some reason. Maybe she had eaten something strange.

When I confirmed her condition by observing the mare, I heard a sharp click! I suddenly realized that I patted my head with my hoof and kept saying, "Stupid Chemis! How stupid!"

We're on the second layer! Remember why you couldn't come to the second layer? The amount of radiation here is no joke!

I took two bottles from the saddle bag and poured out two pill for Sky. She took the pills and chewed it in her mouth. After a while, she looked very energetic. She asked, "What is it? Drugs?"

"What do you say? I never use drugs you know!" I poured out two pills myself and pointed to the red pill and said, "This is Rad-away!" Pointing to the blue pill, I said, "This is RadSafe!"

The purple mare looked surprised. She watched me eat two pills, and then said, "Why is Rad-away a pill? Isn't it a liquid medicine? "

"I'm a pharmacist! Liquid medicine is not easy to be produced and stored, so it is better to make pills. It is not only convenient to store, but also can control the dosage well!" I lifted my head proudly and suddenly felt like a genius!

Sky smiled and covered his mouth, and it seemed that the pills were useful.

We're in a corridor on the second layer, and I don't know why the radiation is so high here, and apparently Sky doesn't know too. There is no power on the second layer, so Sky and I can only maintain the light through the lighting function of Pipbuck. When we came down from the stair, we saw a door. Behind it was the place where we stood. There are rooms for the pony on the side of the corridor, I didn't explore into the room with the Sky, after all, our task is to reach the fifth layer, we have no time to take some souvenirs from the room!
The corridor was filled with either dead ponies or broken furniture and equipment. The ponies here have all died from radiation or lack of food, I think so anyway.

"Did you say there were ponies here? "Asked the purple mare as she walked.

I shook my head and looked at her. "How could it be? You almost fell unconscious by radiation!"

"That's right "The purple mare took a deep breath and added," So shall we go to the third floor then?" I just nodded. Sky glanced at me and said, "But how are we going? There's no power here! Except for the elevator from the first layer to the second layer, all the elevators can't be used here."

All right! I never thought about how to get to the second layer when I was on the first layer. But it's not my fault. After all, how can I know the second layer situation? I don't know anything except the first layer, and Sky probably doesn't either. Isn't it?

I may have said something, but something caught my attention. The road in front of us was blocked by metal plates and concrete falling from the ceiling. These reinforced cement blocks the roads so tightly that there are almost no cracks. Sky and I looked at each other. Sky opened the map on Pipbuck, and she frowned,"Well... It is strange that the terrain scan can not scan the road behind the cement, as if somepony deliberately made us find a new way. "

I walked to the ruins of road and put my ears against it. Of course I heard nothing. I turned to Sky and asked, "Are there any other roads on the map?"

Sky looked at Pipbuck for a moment, then looked up and looked around. Finally, she set her eyes on a door, "There is a path behind this room on the map. Should we go in?" Sky looked at me, and I looked at the door and said. "Do we have any choice? Let's go! " I stepped forward to the door. Sky followed me. I pressed the button near the door, and the door moved slowly upward. Although the second layer had no power supply, somehow the door could be used normally. I take Pipbuck to my room and it should be a rest room for a pony.

It was also very dark inside. The wall is posted on the poster of stable's proprietary Stable boy, and a poster that can't be seen clearly. The only thing that can be seen clearly is "Keep your True, good and beautiful" under the poster. Below these two poster is a table with a broken terminal on it. One door on the side of the room estimated that behind the door was the path Sky said. There is also a bed on the corner of the room. There is a skeleton of a pony in the bed. On the bedside table there was an exquisite little box, and it was estimated that it contained the most precious thing in the dead pony. I walked in front of the small box and tried to open it, but it didn't work. The little box was very strong.

Sky looked at me and said, "Do you want to open this? Why? " I turned around and looked at the exquisite little box. "I don't know, there is a desire to open it. Can you unlock it? "

"No, even if I do, I need a bobby pin and a screwdriver to open the lock." The purple mare used magic to float the small box to herself, and said, "But I can do that!" The purple magic light shone on her horn. After a while, something fell down from her small box. Did she remove the lock directly? Sky looked at my surprise and smiled again. "Don't be surprised! I believe you will, this method is not good for the door! " Sky open the box, it's a... Glass ball? Or something...

"What is this?" I asked.

"This is Memory Orb!" Sky lifted this thing up. I asked again, " Memory what?" I took this glass ball with magic.

"Memory Orb! Orb is not very hard to read. This is the thing that the pony used to keep the memory. My brother has one, but my brother never lets me touch it! This is a rare thing! It's only a unicorn that reads memory, with a little magic. " Sky looked at the glass ball in my hoof. It seemed very precious to her.

I raised the glass ball with magic, and I looked at it, and I saw a disgusting and rotting pony's face on it. I was shocked. The glass ball fell on my horn, and that face was...

oooOOOooo

I feel weird, as if I am not me, I am...

"It's all right... I'll be all right! " I should be me or not. Did I just talk? I feel my breathing is very rapid. What's wrong with me? I...

I... My horn! I can't feel my horn!

"SaltSoda... I'm sorry... I... " I'm talking again. I'm reading the memory in Memory Orb now? I didn't think it was so real before!
I'm still in that room, just more... clean. I now sit at that table and watch myself scratching the poster, there is still dark. The only illumination is the green light from the terminal. I be in the body of a earth pony now? Should I say that? So is this panting, trembling pony is my host?

"Forgive me..." My host began to repent, though I didn't know why, but it seemed that he was very frightened, and I could feel it. COOL! I mean, this Memory Orb is really amazing!

"Why does Overmare do that..." My host scraped the front poster with hoof. It seemed that the cannot see clearly poster was originally a poster of Overmare, although I did not see Overmare's face. I could feel the indignation of the host. After all, Overmare's face has been stirred into a pile of paper paste stuck to my hoof. I often hear old pony said about Overmare blocking Stable, all ponies hate Overmare, but old pony often says it's not Overmare's fault...

Thud!

Something fell down. My host looked back at the door, and his breathing became even more urgent. I'm a little nervous, too. After all, there is very dark. My host went to the door, and as the distance between the host and the door approached, his heartbeat accelerated. As a doctor, I was worried that his heart whether was in the normal range.

My host opened the door and headed out to the door. It was also a corridor outside. Is very dark, so the visibility is very low. Fear is born when you know nothing, and the host whispers to the depths of the corridor, "SaltSoda?"

I don't know why he whispered. Did somepony could to hear this volume? My host swallowed, and he looked around, still nothing. Only the endless darkness...

Then my host took a few steps back, and he looked into the deep corridor. A pair of glowing green eyes were watching me and my host. My host whispered, "No! Do not! " He shut the door immediately, and the sound of the body hitting the metal came after the door closed. What's that? My host began to cry, he shivered, and I could feel the tears flowing out of my eyes. It was cold tears that suffocating.

My host sits on the bed, he is afraid, his inner distortion, I personally experience, it is a pain, not only fear, but more guilt. I close my eyes with my host, and usher in darkness.

"I coming... My love... "

oooOOOooo

When I woke up, I found that I was sweating all over. I looked at the skeleton in the bed, there was an unspeakable taste in my heart. I want to talk to Sky about memory in Memory Orb, but...

Where did Sky go?

I felt a bad feeling in the room without a pony. Although there was no pony in the room, there were a lot of scratches on the floor. What happened here?

I see the scratches on the floor. There was obviously a battle and a very intense battle. I looked around, Sky could not leave alone. How long did it take me to read memory?

"Ah! Go away！ Go away！ Don't come! " Outside the room came the call of a mare, Is Sky!

After I took the Memory Orb, I ran to the door immediately. It was really weird. I also opened this door in the memory of Memory Orb.
When I came to the door, I found many bullet holes on the door. I opened the door and rushed out. It seemed that it was time for the hero to save lady. As I speed up the speed, the screams of Sky grew louder and louder, and I knew I was close. I took the pistol out with magic, hoping Sky is fine.

I saw the light from the front pipbuck, and Sky was shooting wildly! I used the magic to lift the 10mm pistol and shoot at the creatures attacking Sky. The creatures that had been hit were not dead, they turned around and looked at me. Their eyes are shining, their faces are completely rotten and twisted, their hair has fallen off, a large piece of skin is hanging on one side, the dark red muscles are twining on the exposed bones, their teeth are exposed, and they are simply zombie! They should be the shining eyes in Memory Orb! But what are those? A pony? Impossible. In such a high radiation environment, it is impossible to survive unless...

I don't have time to think about it. I have angered these monsters! They roared at me! Now it's my turn to be scared... I stepped back a few steps, and continued to raise the gun with my magic to shoot these monsters. In a panic, you can't aim accurately, and I'm not a sharpshooter. The five bullets only hit the ears of one of the monsters. The rotten pony didn't seem to like the ear piercing I gave her.

I do not stop to retreat and open the S.A.T.S to help me shoot. I didn't like this function. I chose four legs of one of the rotten pony. Like a film, I saw a bullet flying out of a pistol. With the trajectory of a bullet, it drilled into the rotten fur, broke through the twisted bones of the muscle, and a leg was cut like a huge scissors. Because of the speed, there was no drop of blood at the beginning of the cut leg. The short legs rolled to the side of the corridor, which did not impede the movement of the monster. She continued to rush towards me. Cruelly, because she was close to me, I can watch the broken leg in slow motion three times...

The rotting pony that lost its walking tool fell to the ground. She cried, even though she had lost four legs, she had not forgotten to attack me. She is now like a snake, twisting her body. I have no time to relieve her of her pain. After all, she was not the only one who rushed to me. S.A.T.S needs to be used for a while.

I fired again, but no bullet came out except the click of the pistol. Fuck Luna from the moon to Equestria! I don't have a bullet! After all, this 10mm pistol is picked up by the guards. I don't have more cartridges.

A rotten pony jumped on me, his exposed teeth kept close to my neck, and I inserted the pistol into his eye, a cloud of glowing liquid ran down my face with blood. I kicked the one-eyed monster away, and another rotten pony came to me. Unfortunately, I took a step back, and he knocked down and bumped into the wall of the corridor. I wipe off the liquid on my face. If I am not doc, now I will definitely throw up the breakfast I had today.

I looked around and saw a metal crutch stuck in a plush toy. I floated the crutches with magic, and the plush toys were still on the crutch. I tried to tear the plush toys off, but the rotten pony bitten the plush toy on the crutch. I pulled the crutch out, and when the monster was chewing plush toys, I stuck the crutch in his asshole. He opened the plush toy and tried to turn around and attack me, but I rushed forward, the crutch into the deep, and finally came out of his mouth. He had become a roast string. I never saw a roast string of meat.

I put my hoof on the butt of the rotten pony and pulled the crutch out, with green blood on it. I'd better regard this as fresh green grass juice. I looked in the direction of Sky. She was coming to me, what does she seem to be saying...

"Mind...your...head? Mind your head?" I mumbled, and suddenly I felt an unknown drop of liquid on my head. I looked up and saw a glowing slime attached to the ceiling. I didn't know what it was. It had a mouth and sharp teeth inside. On closer inspection, I realized that it was a pony, a liquid putrefied pony, which combined with the ceiling, presumably radiation to mutate it.

Ah!!!!!

That slime spits out a long tongue from his mouth! Tied me up and pulled me up, my crutch fell to the ground. I used magic to float the crutch from the ground and hit its tongue hard, but it seemed fearless, and I kept moving up.

Sky at last came on, raised his pistol by magic, and fired a shot at the great mucous tongue, which bore a large hole in it. I fell on a dead rotten pony with green liquid. I looked at Sky and said, "You're a great help!"

The slime began to roar and I heard many steps and panting. Sky and I looked the corridor. Dozens of rotten ponies came out of nowhere.

I shot Sky.

"Run!!!! "

Sky and I ran away. The rotten ponies behind us came to us like a big wave.

When we thought we were dead, a dark figure suddenly came out. It was a big stallion with dark grey skin and black hair. He was wearing a tattered cloth and gnawing a huge hammer in his mouth. In front of those monsters, he was fearless. He stood in front of us and killed the rotten ponies on the with a hammer, and became a meat pie. The patties on the wall poured out of green and red juice. More than a dozen rotted ponies were all taken to death on the wall, and the gray stallion was carrying the big hammer on his body, and for a moment I felt he had sent out the light!

Although I am glad that we are not injured, what I care more about is this stallion. Is there a pony in the second layer? Or does a pony find that secret passage? It's impossible...

The grey stallion turned around and did not seem to see me walking towards the purple mare. Sky looked at the grey stallion with an expression I could not express. The grey stallion touched Sky's chin with his hoof. Said in a deep voice to the sexy mare in front of him, "Are you okay? My beautiful lady! "

"I'm all right... Thank you ... " Sky smiled at the stallion in front of her. They looked at each other for a long time, they forgot all about my existence. I pretended to cough, they just reacted. Sky's face was red. She smiled awkwardly and said to me, "And thank you, too, Chemis!"

I put the crutch back in the saddle bag. I looked at the stallion next to Sky and asked, "What is your namet? Big guy? "

"My name is Mount! The central tribe. " Mount and I shook hooves. Sky and I looked at Mount puzzled and asked, "Central tribe? What is it? "

Mount looked at us in surprise. He scratched his chin and said, "Do you not know the Central tribe? Are you live on the top? " The stallion in front of me pointed to the ceiling with his hoof. Sky and I looked at each other. "We are the first layer residents, my name is Chemis, this is Skynight." I introduced Sky. When I introduced her to Mount, she even gave him a wink. After I covered my face with a hoof, I looked at Mount again and said, "Please tell us about what you mean by the Central tribe and... Why do you have nothing under high radiation? Do you have RadSafe?

"No, I don't need any RadSafe with my people, I rely on belief!" Mount told us calmly.

"Belief? What medicine is it? "

"No, it's just belief! Our belief in the gods... " The stallion raises his right hoof and knocks on his left shoulder and right shoulder.
I don't believe in any belief. I think they have changed because of radiation. That's absolutely the case. Mount turned to us and said, "You are dangerous here. Please come to our tribe first. I believe the Elder will tell you in detail. " Mount opened pipbuck's lighting into the corridor. Sky went to Mount side and talked to him as if she liked the stallion. I turned around and looked at the dead rotten ponies. The radiation destroyed them. Somehow I suddenly regretted coming to the second layer.

***

The second layer is also a living area. I remember it should be the two district. There are four living area in Stable M.H, and the remaining two should be on the next few layers.

When we were young, we thought that except for the first layer, the other layer's pony should be dead.

I really want to know what Mount is talking about, and why Mount can survive here without medicines. Sky seems to want to know if she can go to bed with Mount, but it's best that she doesn't bother me.

We followed Mount to the central hall, and on the way, Mount had killed a few rotten ponies and heard Mount saying that his tribe's Pony called this rotten pony is Ghoul.

The central hall of the second layer has same like the first layer, but it is only a little smaller. The pillars are hung with lights. It seems that they have generators. Some small houses built of iron sheets were scattered around the hall, and I doubted whether these small houses could live. There is a fountain in the center of the hall. Compared with how they drive the sprinkler, I care more about the green water in it. It's beautiful...shit! I quickly took out RadSafe from the saddle bag, poured two pills and gave Sky one. A grey stallion faced us and shook his head with his eyes closed.

I looked around and found that all the pony here were dressed in rags, where are their Stable uniforms? The pony here doesn't seem to care much about our appearance. They are very calm. They seem to know that we will be there. When Mount sees these pony, he raises his right hoof and knocks on his left shoulder and right shoulder, which is the way they greet him. I saw that Sky also learned Mount to greet other pony, is this a way to narrow the relationship between herself and Mount?

We went to the largest iron slab house here. There is a fur flag hanging on the wall of the iron house. I try not to think where the fur came from. There was a fire in the middle of the room, with an old mare beside the fire, and she was wearing a cloak, and I could not see her eyes, as if she had been muttering.

Mount went to the old mare and lowered his head and said, "Omen elders, when I patrol, I see two ponies, they..."

"Chemis and Skynight! Welcome to the temple of the holy fire! " The elders suddenly spoke and made strange gestures. Sky and I looked at each other. How did she know our names? And what is the strange name of the temple of the holy fire?

Sky went forward to learn Mount's posture. She bowed her head and asked the elders, "Respected elders, how did you know our arrival?"

"You should ask her how she knows our names." I made a joke. Sky knocked on my head with his hoof. Ah! They hurt！

"Sit down! My children! " The elders protruded her hoof and pointed to the cushion beside the fire. We sat down one after another, and Sky was close to Mount.

"I just walked in a dream, and God talked to me. God told me that you will come to my temple and open the door of light for us!" The elders took off her hoodies and stretched their forelimbs into the sky. I'm not surprised that she has no mane. Why else does she have a cloak? The elders opened her eyes, her eyes were white, and her eyes should be blind. I looked at the elders and said, "Well, respected elders, can you tell us how you survived? Let us know that why you are not afraid of radiation."

The elders looked at me with her blind eyes, she said, "We are trapped here by Overmare, and the evil she uses radiation to speed up the distance between us and hell." But we were not afraid. We sat in the hall meditating for three days and three nights, and finally get away from the bitter sea. Radiation can not destroy our flesh. We live with God and the son of God. Our belief saves us and thank God! "

"Thank God!" Mount rehearsed the elders' words.

I frowned. A few words from the elders could not convince me of the power of belief. How can this be possible?

"Elders, What do you mean, we will open the door of light for you?" Sky suddenly said.

"Everything is God prepared, you yourselves should be clear!"

"So what should we do?" I asked.

"Everything is ready by God. Mount, take them to see the god! "

"What? Do you mean God? " Sky whispered.

"Everything is God prepared, you just need to know!" The elders words made me and Sky have no mind. Mount looked up and he came up to us. "Two please follow me."

"What do you do?" Sky walked up to him, and he looked at Sky and said, "You need to wear radiation protection clothing..."

I didn't think they had any radiation protection clothing! I thought these ponies would burn the radiation protection clothing as fuel. But why do we need to wear a radiation protection clothing to see the "God"?

Sky and I went to another iron room with Mount. There were some sundries in it. After all, radiation protection clothing was not sacred to these ponies. Mount opened an iron box with a pattern on it. If my memory is right, it was the sign of Ministry of Wartime Technology, I saw it in the history book. Mount took out two yellow suits from inside and said that I really don't understand how these clothes are protected against radiation.

I put on the radiation protection clothing, the glass cover above it blocks the view a little. I looked at Mount, who was helping Sky wear radiation protection clothing. "It looks like I'm going to space. Why do we need to wear radiation protection clothing? Can't you use RadSafe? "

Mount helped Sky put on the glass cover. He looked at me and smiled. "No, the radiation there is resistant to drugs." If you don't want to become a Ghoul, you need honestly wear it. "

"What is that God like?" Have you seen it? " Sky said.

"Yes, but I don't know what she looks like. When the elders took me there, we were ordered to bow." The gray stallion closes the box.

"She? That so-called God is a mare? She is probably an old mare! " I shook my head from side to side and walked to the door of the house. Mount came over and looked at me and said, "Watch your words and deeds. She can hear!"

I wrinkled my eyebrows, is this frighten me? How could "God" hear what I was saying? Mount looked at us, "Come on! Come with me! " We stepped out and followed the grey stallion. Somehow, I had a bad feeling about this...........
