Start Cthulhu with priest

"Who are you……"

Fumino Asuka looked at the figure at the door in surprise, causing waves in her heart again.

Walking into the room was a woman in strange costumes, with a lot of silverware, and decorated with feathers and paints.

At first glance, it doesn't look like a modern person, but a woman who traveled from some kind of primitive tribe.

The veil on her face was swaying slightly, and her true face could not be seen clearly.

It looks extremely mysterious.

Fumino Asuka can be sure that she has never seen this woman before, but on the other hand, she can't help feeling a little familiar and close to her in her heart.

‘Is she also an extraordinary person from the Security Department? But before today, why had I never seen her? '

Fumino Asuka speculated in her heart.

The appearance of the other party, at least not as weird as those ghouls, seems to be able to communicate.

Fumino Asuka's vigilance has weakened a lot, of course, it has only weakened rather than disappeared, and she has not ruled out the possibility that the other party is some kind of undead disguised as this.

"Ms. Fuyuno, hello."

The psychic smiled at Fuyuno Asuka, and his tone made people feel like a spring breeze.

"Don't panic, I'm here...to help you."

*****

the other side.

An Le finally temporarily stopped his killing pace.

However, that was not because his condition returned to normal, but just because...

Beside him, there was no living ghoul to be seen.

An Le stepped on a piece of meat that he didn't know where it was, and there was a sticky feeling of stepping on shit on his feet, but he didn't care at all.

In the block behind him, pieces of meat like this are scattered like stars in the sky, minced meat, bone stubble, blood, intestines and stomach... the tissues of various organisms, in the most bloody and disgusting state, are spread on the roads and walls , Even the ground was faintly dyed dark red.

Just now, three extremely strong and huge ghouls surrounded An Le.

The gelatinous layer on their necks is thicker, stronger than the skin of a whale, and full of toughness. When force is applied to it, it will be eliminated in a way beyond common sense-it can make people say "It's a force reduction! Extremely high." Level of energy reduction!" Such admiration.

The bone density of the head is extremely dense, and its strength is comparable to ordinary steel.

In the long process of evolution, their physical instincts have evolved towards protecting their own weaknesses.

After all, except for the head, the regeneration ability of ghouls is extremely terrifying, and in the eyes of ordinary people, it definitely deserves the title of "undead creature".

It's just that in An Le's view, no creature in the world is immortal.

If you can't die with one punch, hit another one.

If you can't die with 10,000 punches, then hit another 10 million punches!

After the extremely brutal and bloody battle, such a street full of blood and minced meat was left behind. If we try our best to piece together, we can probably restore part of the bodies of the three ghouls.

But these ghouls are indeed different from ordinary goods.

Even An Le couldn't keep the black robe on her body spotless.

A little filthy liquid stained it.

In fact, An Le can use a more precise and elegant way to cause fatal damage to ghouls.

For example, just now, in front of Fumino Asuka, he could have killed the ghoul by cutting its throat and beheading it, but Anle still chose to crush its head in a violent and cruel way.

An Le did not deliberately pursue blood.

Rather, it was Xue Xue who took the initiative to pursue peace.

Such an approach, in his view, is justified and needs no reason.

At this time, An Le's gaze moved coldly, sweeping across the surrounding night.

He could sense that there were still a few sporadic ghouls nearby.

It's just different from the greed and excitement when they came. At this time, they were running away with great panic and panic on their faces, looking behind them from time to time, as if they were worried that they would be killed by monsters in the shadows. Grab and shred.

'Escaped? '

An Le thought coldly, but didn't chase after them and hunt them down.

He was sober, knowing that his goal now was not to slaughter the ghouls, but to find the core of this dream and destroy it.

The reason why Anle did not communicate with Fuyuno Asuka is simple.

For him at this time, keeping silent and not responding is a matter of course, and responding is an action that requires a reason.

[Once the monster shows the characteristics of being able to communicate, its terrifying meaning will be greatly weakened. 】

This sentence emerged from An Le's heart again, it was a man's voice, both familiar and unfamiliar.

He also remembered the content behind this sentence.

[If you want to act as a human being, the first thing you need to learn...is to communicate. 】

*****

Two or three minutes later.

An Le came to the alley where he had been during the day.

The arrangement in the alley was exactly the same as in the daytime, except that there were no corpses or mutated rats inside, and even the rancid smell of garbage penetrated into An Le's nostrils.

An Le walked straight to where the corpse should have been, and landed heavily on one foot.

Cracks like spider webs immediately appeared on the ground.

However, what was exposed under the ground was neither corpses nor soil.

It's a...deep passage!

An Le didn't hesitate, his figure was like a puddle of liquid, melting into the shadows and disappearing in the alley.

Not long after.

The psychic wearing a strange costume walked into the alley, looked at the cracks and passages on the ground, and raised his eyebrows in surprise: "It seems that his movements are much faster than ours."

Behind the psychic, Asuka Fumino couldn't help but asked, "You mean... Anle?"

"What the hell happened to him?"

"Also, what exactly are you trying to do by calling us here?"

Beside the psychic was not only Asuka Fuyuno, but also Kota, Chen Ye, Wu Yong, and even Xia Bingxin.

However, it can be clearly seen that Kota and the others are still a little confused in consciousness and have not fully awakened.

And at this time, the images of the few of them are different from reality.

For example, Kota, he is no longer a handsome dog-eared boy, but more like a weather-beaten uncle, handsome or handsome, but with the charm of a mature man.

In fact, this is closer to the true face of Kota's heart.

His actual age is 28 years old, and he hangs around among the flowers all the year round. It can only be said that he is an old scumbag.

On the other side, Chen Ye's appearance was a little younger, like a boy who hadn't grown up yet.

Xia Bingxin was not much different, but the expression on her face was softer, not as cold and paralyzed anymore.

The biggest change is none other than Wu Yong.

Instead of a crew cut, his hair was disheveled, matted with tangled strands and clumps of various sizes.

The clothes Wu Yong was wearing were also tattered, as if he had crawled out of a slum.

And his skin was extremely dry, without the luster and elasticity that normal people should have, it was like a mummy.

What made Fuyuno Asuka even more terrified was that on that skin, there was still a gray line drawn, or... a scar?

The lines are all over Wu Yong's body, arms, thighs, palms, face...all of them are like this, containing mysterious power.

Fuyuno Asuka sometimes even felt that it was like a series of chains, restraining a certain existence in Wu Yong's body.

She couldn't help but think of some rumors she had heard.

"Don't worry."

The psychic said softly: "The posture that people present in this dream is often more real and closer to the essence."

"It's like Team Leader Guang and a few of your colleagues."

"Maybe the An Le you see is actually his more real appearance?"

Fumino Asuka's pretty face changed color: "How come..."

She subconsciously wanted to argue, but recalled An Le's indifferent figure like a tyrant, but she couldn't speak.

"There is another possibility."

The psychic smiled and continued to explain: "It is that he suffers from a serious mental illness. I mean... diseases like multiple personality and schizophrenia, and in this dream, such psychological problems will be magnified, Let the other him take the lead."

Seeing Fumino Asuka lost in thought, the psychic did not continue this topic.

She turned to say: "You asked me what I want to do, probably because I think everything is within my expectations?"

"Actually, how can I predict everything?"

"I don't know everything, I only know what I know."

"It's not so much what I want to do, it's better to say... I'm just doing what I can do."

The psychic sighed with a wry smile.

"Do your best and obey the destiny."

To outsiders, these words seem like the riddleman among the riddlemen, but to the psychic herself, these are her sincere words.

When saying this, the psychic couldn't help but think of a divination made two days ago.

The so-called "divination" in this world is not a false and deceptive method, but an extraordinary and metaphysical mysterious ritual.

【Divination】

[Foretelling fortune and fortune, predicting the future. 】

[An ancient psychic, using tortoise shells and bone pieces for divination. 】

[Its essence is to show a corner of the future with the help of countless tiny particles between the sky and the earth, using the tortoise shell and other substances rich in extraordinary characteristics as the medium. 】

[Even if it is just a false star, it can guide people to find the way to the future. 】

[It is said that some futures are destined to be unchangeable. 】

[Divination is just to let people know the cruel fate in advance. 】

This is the knowledge that the psychic medium saw in an ancient book a long time ago.

Looking back now, I can't even remember when it was.

In terms of the combat strength of a superhuman, the combat power of a psychic is almost the same as that of a D-level superhuman, and may not even be an opponent.

But compared to all kinds of mysterious and weird methods, even A-level transcendents are hard to match.

She has devoted all of herself to the matter of "psychic medium".

As a result, she lost her own name, and all that was left was the code name "psychic medium", and even the body itself...

And just two days ago, the psychic suddenly noticed an extremely strong premonition in his sleep.

So, she exhausted all her life's knowledge and tried her best to carry out a divination.

And the result of divination is——

Yue Chung City is about to be destroyed!

Among the thousands of futures seen by the psychic, they all have the same ending.

She saw, under the blood-red full moon, the city was reduced to ruins.

Everything will be destroyed in the fog filled with blood and fire.

And there is no way to avoid it!

Such a sight made the psychic tremble and feel unspeakable panic.

This is the first time a psychic wants her divination to be wrong.

However, reason told her that the premonition she had during the divination was extremely clear and true, which meant... there was a ninety-nine percent chance that this would happen!

The psychic can't see why the scene happened, but can only get as much useful information as possible from it.

Blood moon, mist... these are all clues.

The former is related to the foundation of the city of Yueyong City, while the latter is from the Misty Sect that died seven or eight times.

——These secrets are not considered secrets to psychics.

But the psychic couldn't help being puzzled by this, what method could be used to summon such a blood moon?

Besides, after the death of so many gray-robed believers, the Misty Sect should be on the decline. How could it have anything to do with them again?

What surprised the psychic most was that during the process of divination, she also saw some fragments, in which a familiar and unfamiliar figure appeared many times.

After careful identification, the psychic recognized that it was the An Le she had seen in Yi Shuang's office.

When they first met, An Le left a deep impression on the psychic.

If you continue to explore him deeply, it will be like plunging into the vast galaxy alone, spying into the bottomless darkness.

In the vastness, darkness and loneliness beyond all human imagination, there will be an indescribable fear.

If I had to describe it, it would be the fear of the starry sky, the universe, and the insignificance of human beings.

Therefore, the psychics kept him at a respectful distance.

And subconsciously concealed the truth from Yi Shuang.

She understands that sometimes, ignorance is a kind of luck.

If Yi Shuang knew this, it would probably lead to an unimaginable disaster.

If possible, the psychic medium actually didn't want to have any contact with An Le.

It's just that the figure that appeared frequently in the prophecy made the psychic have to keep him in mind and be ready to get along with him—'An Le, will it be an opportunity to prevent the destruction of Yuesong City? '

‘Or, he caused the destruction of Yuesong City? '

However, the psychic can only bury these thoughts in his heart, and it is impossible to tell Fumino Asuka and them.

As for the current situation, she just happened to perceive the existence of this dream, and faintly sensed that this matter would be related to the future of Yuechong City, so she fell into the dream by herself and prepared to act according to circumstances.

——For an extremely sensitive psychic, intuition can often lead her on the right path.

In addition to being a fortune-teller, a psychic also has knowledge about entering dreams, creating dreams, and some taboo knowledge in dreams.

That's why psychics find this alley.

Exactly, after Anle.

The psychic looked back at Guangta and the others beside him. It was undoubtedly difficult for them to wake up and regain their own abilities with their own consciousness.

In the face of the dangers that may lie ahead, every strength counts.

So the psychic plucked a feather from his ear and touched Kota's forehead with it.

The unexamined feeling quickly disappeared from Kota's mind, and he woke up as if a basin of cold water had been poured on him.

And unconsciously, Kota could feel the light core constantly rotating in his body, regaining control over the brilliance.

Guangtai took a deep look at the psychic, and said softly, "Thank you."

Next, the psychic did the same thing, correcting the status of the remaining few people.

Only for Wu Yong, the psychic media just let him understand that this is a dream, and there is no next move.

Wu Yong murmured in a low voice: "Have you eaten yet?" to express his gratitude.

The psychic looked at the dark hole in front of him and said softly, "Let's... let's go."

People went down one by one, like walking on the road to hell.

*****

at the same time.

An Le came to the end of the passage.

Rather than saying "the end", it is more appropriate to say "the entrance".

Because in front of An Le, several forked roads appeared.

It was pitch black all around, and there was hardly a ray of light, but thanks to the control over the shadows, he was able to see everything in the darkness clearly.

Each road is surprisingly wide enough to accommodate three An Les walking side by side.

It's as if the passage from the surface to here is just the entrance to this huge underground world.

An Le was not surprised by this.

As early as the other ghouls could remember, he had seen a corner of this underground world.

Here is a city of ghouls!

An Le came to the forked road, where a stone slab stood, with strange and unfamiliar characters written in scrawled handwriting.

The writing has similarities to human language, but has been distorted into strange shapes.

Anle can recognize its meaning due to reading the memories of many ghouls.

——[The residence of the great god of the burial place, the underground city that will never die. 】

Probably explaining the identity of the city to outsiders.

But in Anle's view, it is almost the same as the slogan on the electronic screen hanging on the intersection of Huaguo Expressway-for example, "Welcome to Beijing!"

Unlike human cities, the underground city of ghouls is essentially composed of countless underground tunnels extending in all directions.

They admire graves, and the places they live in are like cold, peaceful graves.

But today, this peace is destined to be broken by An Le.

The battle just now was not meaningless.

From the memory of the ghoul killed by An Le, he learned that the underground city in this dream was not under Yuesong City, but somewhere on the wasteland.

This shows that someone used weird means to bring this dream dungeon to the boundary of Yueyong City.

Even if there is no evidence, An Le still instinctively sensed it, which may have something to do with the fragments of the Blood Hallows.

But what kind of means, how to implement, and how to stop and reverse, Anle still doesn't know.

Since there is a lack of information, it is necessary to collect it.

Ghouls are the best targets.

An Le gradually evoked a cruel smile, his figure flashed in the shadows, dodged a ghoul that was attacking him from the dark, and held the other's head with one hand, the black light lit up.

'This one's intelligence is too low, and it has no valuable memory. '

Looking through the messy memory, An Le thought to herself.

‘The more powerful and mature a ghoul is, the more likely it is to contain secrets in its memory, and therefore...the more valuable it is. '

Amidst the splattered pieces of meat and broken bones, An Le gradually sank deeper into the darkness.

Thanks to "Han Shi'an" for the reward of 100 coins and "qrfeng" for the reward of 1500 coins! Thank you so much!
