MTL - Deep Sea Embers-Chapter 38 offline
The corpse was breathing, as if it had wandered around the edge of the kingdom of death, and then returned to the world.
The black-robed believers in the room stared blankly at this scene. Some of them didn't even realize that the man in front of them had actually "died" once, because this moment of life and death was so short that they didn't pay close attention or even distinguish them. If they didn't come out, they just felt that the breath of the dying "compatriots" in front of them suddenly became steady and powerful for some reason, which was extremely surprising.
The next second, the man lying on the ground opened his eyes.
He seemed to have been in the dark for so long that the oil lamps in the room that were not bright enough made him feel dazzling. He blinked his eyes to adjust to the light, and then slowly rolled his eyes, as if he had just noticed the three gathered around him. Black robe man.
"Thank the Lord for your blessing!" A relatively young black-robed cultist finally reacted and couldn't help but praised excitedly, "You survived! I thought you would..."
"Wait! No! Step back!" The deep-voiced cultist suddenly reacted to something. He stopped the others' movements, and stared at the man who had just woken up with vigilant eyes while stepping back. He said in a threatening tone, "His breathing just now has completely stopped, I'm absolutely right... The situation is not right!"
Duncan finally got used to the surrounding environment, and the tinnitus-like noise gradually faded from his mind. He saw the figures around him clearly, and the first reaction in his heart was—why are these people still when he opens his eyes? Why is this still in the sewer?
Walking in the spirit world should be random. When he chose his target, he was completely intuition and messed up, but he didn't expect to open his eyes twice to fall into the middle of this group of cultists. What kind of evil fate is this?
But then, he noticed something wrong from the reactions of those around him, and the next second, he noticed the black robe on his body.
Duncan was silent for two seconds, and his heart was already stunned.
In the last round, he was sacrificed by a cultist, and then he closed his eyes, and now he is a "cultist".
He really has a connection with these people.
"...The situation is not quite right!"
At this moment, a low voice full of hostility suddenly interrupted Duncan's confusion after "awakening". He followed the sound and immediately met a cold gaze full of vigilance.
The owner of that line of sight was staring at him coldly, and next to him, the other two black-robed cultists also reacted later, and they stepped back and took a defensive posture.
Duncan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that he might have possessed a corpse just like last time.
You are cheating corpses in front of these cultists!
After understanding the situation in front of him, the nervous reactions of these cultists also became logical. Duncan's mind started to work quickly. He felt that the numbness and sluggishness remaining in this body had not completely dissipated. Now it is extremely inconvenient to move. It seems that it is not easy to do things under the eyes of several cultists, and he can only try to stabilize these people first - and just as he was quickly thinking of a way out, a little fragmented memory of Mohu suddenly appeared in his mind. emerge!
In that fragmented memory of Mohu, he suddenly "remembered" many fragments of experiences that did not belong to him - he remembered "self" hiding in the sewers, remembered that "self" offered his family's money to the messenger of the sun, In order to heal the disease, "self" participates in those dark, crazy and **** sinful rituals, drinking the blood of innocent people in exchange for "the blessing of the sun"...
At the end of a series of messy memories, he "sees" the scene of the sacrifice ceremony again, and sees many people wearing black robes like himself standing beside the high platform, and a young sacrifice is pushed onto the high platform. The young sacrificial, with a stiff and weird expression, throws the whole ceremony into chaos...
He saw that the "Messenger of the Sun" was sacrificed to the heart, everyone around the altar fell into madness, the believers were killing each other, raging flames overflowed from the sun totem, angry roars and murmurs of nothingness filled the assembly The original owner of his body and the last few remaining believers fled in a hurry...
Duncan didn't know how long he had been sluggish, maybe it was only a moment, the unfamiliar memory that was surging in his mind calmed down again, and a pathetic and hateful life was turned into a series of pale fragments, lying on him as if for people to read. The bottom of my heart - like some kind of "nutrient".
This is the memory of the original owner of his body - although there are not many left, there is no doubt about the source.
Duncan blinked, this was a change that never happened during the last "spirit walk".
Last time, he couldn't get any memory from the possessed corpse, the brain of that "sacrifice" was only blank... Why is there such a change this time?
Is it because the body he occupies this time is still "fresh"? Or is it because the pigeon "Ai Yin" strengthens the power of the brass compass?
Duncan slowly sat up from the ground. He knew that no matter what the reason behind the change was, now is not a good time to be in a daze. Those nervous cultists obviously realized that their "resurrection" process was not right. .
And with Duncan's move to get up, the three cultists immediately took a half step back, and then the man in black with a low voice broke the silence with one hand on his waist: "You don't move - tell me, you What is your name?"
"...Ron," Duncan recalled briefly, and then said the name he had just learned from memory quite naturally, "Ron Stryon."
"His name is Ron." A young black-robed believer across from him immediately lowered his voice and said to the low-voiced black-robed man who had become the leader of the three.
However, the man in black robe did not let his guard down at all, he just stared at Duncan, and then suddenly recited in a strange syllable tone: "In the name of the sun, may the glory of the Lord shine, and in the name of the sun, May the blessing of the Lord come!"
Hearing the sudden maddening movement of the cultist opposite, Duncan was stunned for a moment, then felt a scorching heat in his chest, he subconsciously reached out and took out the thing that was heating under his clothes, only to see that it was a gold Yellow Sun Talisman - A strange heat is coming from the surface of the talisman!
In the next second, the amulet burst into flames, and the flames seemed to be full of malice, rushing towards Duncan's heart!
"The glory of the Lord is attacking him!" Seeing this scene, the cultist who had just recited the prayer reacted instantly. He pulled out the dagger from his waist and shouted at the same time, "His soul has been replaced! Kill him. This heretic filth!"
The movements of the other two cultists were obviously a little slower, but they also reacted immediately. These people who thought Duncan was a "compatriot" at the moment did not hesitate to take out the short swords and daggers they were carrying, and they were full of murderous intent. He rushed over and shouted loudly: "Kill him!"
Duncan held the sun talisman that had already started to burn, and watched three figures swooping towards him. The next second, another figure suddenly appeared at the edge of his line of sight!
A ghostly-like undead bird burning with green flames ripped through the air, wrapped in icy flames and swept across the roof. with feather fragments.
The three cultists were naturally attracted by this "undead bird", and they subconsciously looked up at "Ai Yin" who had transformed into a spirit body.
The next moment, all of their movements stagnated, as if the connection with the real world suddenly became distant and sluggish, the figures of the three men in black robes were pulled out in mid-air like a frame-by-frame animation. With the overlapping afterimages, they landed slowly with ridiculously slow movements, and finally fell to a complete standstill within two meters in front of Duncan.
With huge horror in their eyes, they watched the undead bird hovering on the ceiling and then landed on the black-robed "compatriot" on the opposite side. They saw that the sun amulet in the man's hand was still burning, but the next In a second, those burning flames turned faint green, and turned into the same shape as the flames on the "undead bird".
Duncan squeezed the sun talisman in his hand, and the green fire of the spirit body wrapped around the surface of the talisman, and the flames gushing from the talisman circled in front of him for half a circle, and then calmly disappeared like a pet. Come down, circling slowly on his arm in a pleasing manner.
Holding the sun talisman that had been completely occupied and transformed, he unhurriedly came to the three cultists, he looked at each other's horrified eyes, and couldn't help but regret in his tone: "You have to pretend that you don't know what to do. How nice."
The next second, the figures of the three cultists suddenly flickered violently in mid-air a few times, and then disappeared.
The "undead bird" that was wrapped in green fire and looked like a skeleton jumped twice on Duncan's shoulder, and in the crackling sound of the burning flame, it screamed sharply and hoarsely: "Oops, the page is gone, try refreshing it? "
