Start Cthulhu with priest - Chapter 301
c299 298. The Boy Understands Everything
Abandoned outside the city.
Ruins No. 2.
Similar to the scene at the core of the Black Mountain Building, there are scorched soil and broken sand and stones everywhere.
The traces after the high temperature came, like a huge scar, will remain on this land for a long time, and it will take an unknown amount of time to heal.
The unusually prosperous stronghold that members of the rebel army had seen before had disappeared.
All that remains is a piece of wreckage that cannot be seen in its original shape.
And what is slightly different from the city is that in the center of the scorched soil, there is still a large platform.
Under such a powerful beam of light, the platform is still intact, as smooth as a mirror, and it still reflects bright light in the sun.
It seemed that the spear of St. Chrysia, instead of causing any damage, helped it clean up the dirt and residue on the surface, allowing it to see the light of day again.
On it, dark lines are faintly revealed, flowing silently.
This platform originally existed underground.
And near it, you can still see a few sporadic broken bones.
The skeletons of these skeletons are relatively petite, which is not what an adult should be.
Because, the entire farm itself is located underground in the ruins.
Therefore, compared with the three major company strongholds on the surface, the lethality suffered is much smaller.
But the only difference made is that the bodies themselves remain relatively intact.
Most of the living creatures on the farm were almost all killed, and only a few lucky ones survived.
A teenager with severe burns all over his body and nearly blind in both eyes struggled to push away the gravel that was pressing on his body, and climbed out with difficulty.
Such a few small movements exhausted all his strength.
The boy spread out his bloody arms, face up, lying flat on the ground, panting heavily, as if he might not be able to take a breath at any time, and died.
Sweat and blood, mixed together, made him look even more embarrassed.
It’s just that it can be clearly seen that the young man’s body is healing itself at an extremely fast speed.
On the arm that was originally exposed to the bones, flesh and blood quickly grew out, making up for the original incompleteness.
The boy is an experimental subject on the farm.
After indescribable pain and torture, his soul automatically responded to the desire deep in his heart, awakening the extraordinary power of self-healing.
But for him, it became even more of a source of pain.
Various inhuman experiments and transformations were imposed on the youngsters.
Most of them, not to mention personal experience, even seeing and hearing will bring spiritual pollution to ordinary people and cause physical discomfort.
One can imagine, what kind of cruel treatment was that?
In the memory that still exists, the boy remembers that he has been deformed dozens of times.
As for why he didn’t die in the distortion, the boy can only consider it as the curse of fate.
If he died during the first mental breakdown, he would not have to endure the torture that was worse than death.
Now, everything seems to be turning around?
When the young man recovered from his extremely weak state, his half-blind eyes could see the surrounding scene vaguely.
His mood was confused and ignorant.
‘Where am I…? ”
The morning light just penetrated the clouds and shone on the boy’s face.
This warm feeling, different from artificial light, was something he had never experienced before.
Ever since he could remember as a teenager, he has been living in an underground space without sunlight.
At this time, some indescribable emotions came to my heart.
The boy turned his head and looked around.
He found that the sights and things he was familiar with had all disappeared.
Whether it’s the bright laboratory lamps, the experimenters in white coats, the cold and bloody laboratory table, or the vicious guards, the other poor children on the farm…
All of them disappeared in the previous explosion without discrimination.
The young man vaguely remembered that he was locked up in a special room before he fell into a coma, so that he could reflect.
Although the boy didn’t know what he was going to reflect on.
But it was probably because the room was stronger than a farm-like place, so his body was not completely torn to pieces by the berserk energy in the first place.
The boy’s self-healing ability is certainly not weak, but if most of his body is lost, he will not survive.
Staring blankly at the sky, the boy’s mind went blank.
Nerves that have been numb due to torture, temporarily lose the ability to think.
About half an hour later, he realized in a trance…
I am free?
But after thinking of this, more confusion rose up like sea water, submerging the boy.
On the coast after the tide receded, only one or two points of dry joy appeared.
When living on the farm in the past, the boy thought about escaping that hell every day.
But when the shackles that bound him were really destroyed, he didn’t seem as happy and excited as he thought.
Instead, there is only endless emptiness left, like this piece of ruins that has been completely destroyed.
Why did the farm disappear?
Who made the explosion at that time?
These questions are not that important to the boy, he just thinks about them silently.
‘What shall I do next? ‘
The goal of escaping the farm was accomplished without any effort on his part.
Everything in the past seemed to have lost its meaning, directly negating his life.
It is hard for a teenager not to fall into this state of confusion.
at this time.
He felt the ground beneath him tremble, and the sand and stones around him trembled.
There seemed to be some inexplicable substances in the air, which blocked the mouth and nose, making it difficult to breathe.
Fear emerged from the bottom of the boy’s heart.
This fear came from deep within him.
He seemed to have returned to the time when he was carried on the operating table for the first time. The scalpel in the hands of the experimenter reflected a pale and cold light, and an unknown fate was waiting for him.
at the same time.
From the perspective that the teenager can’t see.
On the flat and clean platform, a black light suddenly lit up.
They are so similar to the scattered sunlight in the sky, yet so different.
They are so similar that even the temperature and touch can’t tell the slightest difference.
Only that kind of color is completely in two extreme directions, and the contrast is so sharp that in this space, it seems to be divided into two areas clearly.
The upper layers of the sky were still dominated by bright, mild white light.
But in the area close to the ground, it was reduced to a territory ravaged by black light.
Upon closer inspection, this platform really looks like a huge mirror.
But it does not reflect the clouds in the sky or the blue sky, but only reflects a light that is completely different from that of the Lord of Radiance.
As if… Under the mirror, there is another side of him?
The complex and weird patterns on it seem to come alive, rotating and changing, like the evolution of a galaxy, dazzling and vast, making people frightened, and can’t help but continue to watch until their rationality collapses.
With the flow of mysterious power in the patterns, translucent shadows gradually emerged in this miserable ruin.
It was near the No. 2 ruins, the remnants of people who died under the gun of St. Kiris.
Most people’s souls can only be turned into remnants due to insufficient “quality” and lack of savings of extraordinary power.
Remnant souls are a kind of undead, but they have no independent consciousness and will dissipate quickly.
But now, it hasn’t been too long since they died.
The mysterious power overflowing from the huge black mirror awakens the remnant souls, manifests them in the air, summons them and gathers them together.
All the remnants are moving towards the center of the mirror.
There are also some high-quality undead among them.
——After all, there are many extraordinary people stationed in the No. 2 ruins, and there is a certain probability that they will be transformed into undead after death.
The shivering teenager lying on the ground stared blankly at the picture beside him.
Countless remnants of souls floated out of the nearly razed ruins, like jellyfish swarms floating in the ocean.
For a moment, it was a bit dreamy and magnificent.
But behind this magnificence, thousands of lives were lost.
There are quite a few of them, all of whom the boy had seen before.
There was a fat guard he hated, an experimenter with scars, and a playmate with whom he had a good relationship…
On the faces of countless remnants, they all have the same expression——
fear!
Facing the fear of death!
The expressions of many people stayed at the last second before they died. They tried to escape, resist, and hide.
But under the gun of St. Chrysos, people’s efforts finally became futile.
There is great terror between life and death.
Any normal person will have a strong desire to survive.
The stronger the desire to survive, the more turbulent the fear of facing death.
If the emotion of “fear” is also divided into grades, this fear of death can undoubtedly be regarded as the best existence.
And for Him, this is the most delicious and delicious food.
The souls of the dead gathered and piled up on the mirror surface, and quickly bonded together with a certain substance flowing out of the mirror surface to form another weird thing.
It is between the entity and the illusion, and is composed of countless remnants of souls.
The mutilated limbs, head, and face are entangled and fused together, presenting a translucent colloidal state.
Similar to the second stage of the Golden Law in Elden’s Circle of Law, in the translucent body, there are filthy and twisted stumps and broken arms, or wide-open eyeballs.
There were so many human beings who died around the No. 2 ruins, and there was already an extraordinarily large and chaotic thing.
Facing Him, the teenager lost his ability to speak and think.
The young man’s brain is no longer able to understand what He is and why it appears.
All he could do was just stare blankly at such a scene, letting reason scream and escape from his body.
Vaguely, the young man saw that while continuing to absorb the fear of the remnant souls.
The hatred and pain of the remnant soul are transmitted in another direction, falling on someone far away.
The reason behind this is beyond his knowledge.
As more souls condensed, they merged into the already huge chaotic body that could even be described as bloated.
If we talk about Him just now, the young man can barely use some adjectives to describe him.
But now, his lack of vocabulary can no longer describe the picture that drilled into his eyes, like an ignorant savage who can’t understand the changes in the sky, and doesn’t know what exists in the depths of the universe.
This happens when past perceptions and past experiences simply no longer apply to what is happening at this moment.
This cannot be blamed on him, but only because the indescribable that is reappearing is already in a field that mortals cannot touch.
Suddenly, just when the boy was trembling and almost crazy.
The “gaze” of the chaotic behemoth fell on him.
That may not count as things like “gaze” and “sight”, but just a small part of his huge perception and touch.
The reason why I met the boy was not because he was special.
It was only because he was the only living person in this area that unfortunately he was affected.
Perhaps, this is a kind of luck?
“▇▇▇▇▇”
An incomprehensible voice sounded in the boy’s ears, it seemed to be some kind of special language.
It also seems that because it contains too much information that humans should not understand, it flooded into his mind.
The severe pain that was about to be stretched apart suddenly churned up, and was instilled in it unreasonably and rudely.
Something else was injected into his brain at the same time.
But the young man couldn’t even cry out in pain, he could only stand there sluggishly, like a puppet who lost his soul.
The connection between this body and soul has been severed.
In such suffocating pain, in a trance, he understood the meaning of the whisper.
[In the endless dark beyond, the purest and most beautiful is there. 】
[Fear, more fear. 】
The moment he understood this passage, the boy seemed to…understand everything.
The black light merged into his body without hindrance, and gradually dyed his eyes into pure black ink.
Soon, the boy stood up, knelt down on the mirror, and shouted in a fanatical tone.
“My lord, welcome your return!”
A black halo enveloped his body, enveloping the chaotic and disorderly weirdness together.
From a distance, it is no longer possible to spy on the scene in the black light.
There is only chaotic and dirty breath, surging up and down, like a storm pregnant with thunder and lightning.
*****
In an abandoned city.
In the neighborhood where the gunfire was roaring, An Le’s brows twitched slightly as he was running wildly, as if something bad was happening.
But he doesn’t have time to take this into consideration right now. Behind him, three B-level transcendents are chasing after him.
The magnetic voice of Miki Montenegro came out of the headset.
“Three hundred meters ahead, the blind spot of infinite creatures, you can try to do it.”
“I see.”
With Anle’s current strength, even if his body is still injured, it is more than enough to solve the three B-levels.
The reason for the “fleeing” state is to paralyze the infinite biological company.
In the eyes of the vast majority of people in Unlimited Company, both An Le and Heishan Meiji have become piles of ashes underground in the building, and their vigilance has decreased.
The enemy is in the light, and I am in the dark.
This is also a rare advantage.
“boom!”
One of them shot at An Le’s body like a cannonball. If it hits hard, it can break the bones of an ordinary person.
But if he bumped into An Le…he might be the one who had a broken bone.
The other party laughed ferociously: “See where you can escape!”
