Cracks began to appear on the blurred mirror in front of Lu Chen. There was a dead silence around him, and all kinds of small sounds came to his ears.
Tick——
Tick——
It seems to be outside the bathroom and on his head. From the gradually broken mirror, you can see that drops of dark red blood drip from above Lu Chen's head and spread under his feet.
But Lu Chen knows that this is false. At least in his face-to-face perception, none of this exists.
He calmly opened the door and came to the corridor. There were gray walls on both sides of the corridor, with kerosene lamps hanging on the top that had not been lit for many years.
At this time, I am standing in the bathroom at the end, surrounded by a row of small doors, mostly the same bathroom. My sight extends forward, and the separation between rooms becomes longer. At the end of the other end, it is about more than 100 meters long.
According to the memory of its predecessor, it was originally developed to build a hospital.
Noah is not a rich province in the Sistine Empire, and kinkland is a city beyond the fourth line. It is unimaginable that people in the lower urban area live in poverty without seeing it with their own eyes.
How can a large hospital be built in such a place?
It was because a kind count considerate of the poverty of the urban poor, wanted to open a welfare hospital and invested a lot of money, but when the building was just formed and had not been renovated and put into use, the count Enfis was arrested for tax evasion and smuggling goods.
The source of funds was broken, and the unfinished building was shelved and not demolished. For a series of political reasons, it was left here for the time being. Although it has the seal of the Empire, there are always brave refugees who come in to hide from the wind and rain.
Over time, it became a gathering place for refugees, and the dirty stench in the bathroom was left over from that time.
So why is the gathering place of once displaced people so empty now?
In the memory of the original owner, a strange thing happened here five years ago.
It was a refreshing morning. The law enforcement officers in the lower urban area patrolled the abandoned building as usual, mainly to catch thieves here, because one of the pickpockets stole something they shouldn't have stolen and provoked someone they shouldn't have provoked.
But it is strange that the building has never been silent. Although the refugees are lazy, there are many riots here every morning, mostly for the use of a few toilets.
When the curious law enforcement officer entered the abandoned building, he was frightened to see the scene in front of him.
Blood, blood everywhere, and countless broken limbs. The head fell to the ground. The fracture was a rugged opening, like being chewed off by some animal.
He was so scared that he took out the abandoned building. On the same day, there was a rumor in kinkland that the unknown existence in the building made everyone crazy.
They attack each other, eating each other like wild animals, even their own bodies, until everyone loses their ability to move.
A total of more than 700 refugees have not survived.
The next day, the night watchman team of ChenYong church came to the small town. After handling the body, the building was closed again and no one was allowed to enter.
As for the inside story of the matter, what happened that year, the original owner, as a poor man living in the lower urban area, naturally did not know.
From the memory of the original owner, after knowing his location and general situation, Lu Chen calmly walked forward.
He put on his shoes in his storage space and stepped on the dusty "cement ground", leaving footprints. The footsteps echoed slightly in the open corridor.
"An ancient poem..."
Noisy, cold, with a crazy whisper echoed in Lu Chen's ear, and the sound was gradually amplified.
In Lu Chen's surface view, the kerosene lamps at the top of the corridor lit up one by one. It was clear that there was no fuel and no open fire to ignite, but there was a flame.
It is not a bright yellow, warm fire, but a dark red light, which looks at you like a pair of eyes in the dark corridor.
With each step of Lu Chen, the scene in the surface vision will change. Inexplicable whispers echoed in his ears, as if to pollute people's mind. A thick layer of plasma appeared on the ground, and viscous blood was dripping on the walls and domes on both sides.
In the middle of the corridor, you can clearly see that the plasma on the wall is covered. It seems that something is breeding in the plasma. Pairs of arms as thick and thin as chopsticks protrude from it, as if trying to break free from the bondage of the sea of blood.
Poop poop poop poop——
The sound of bubble fragmentation sounded. In the thick plasma, the bubbles bulged like faces. Each face has different appearance, but with a painful and crazy look. With a big mouth, it seems to breathe the air, but it sends out a murmur.
This is what we can see from the surface view. Under the action of Lu Chen's Wudao heavenly eye, the building is no different from the scene at the beginning.
When he came to the end of the corridor and the corner of the stairs, there was a sound of friction behind him. Lu Chen turned slowly and saw a figure higher than Zhang Xu from the ground.
The shadow twisted and transformed, countless blood colored tentacles extended on it, linked to the surrounding walls, like a spider's nest, while the body in the center is just an oval, face like thing, which seems to be breathing, and the baby's arms are stretching and contracting.
There was no mouth and nose, but it exuded an inexplicable whisper. The crazy will swept through the corridor. The meat skin opened a seam, revealing a milky white eye without pupils, staring at Lu Chen tightly.
It is an unknown incarnation, a strange, a fear, and an existence that ordinary people can't look directly at.
It walks in the world, spreading fear and madness.
The white eyed pupil looked at the slum man at the end of the corridor, ready to enjoy the human fear that had not been tasted for a long time.
But the man in front of him was very strange. He had been killed by it once. Why did he come back to life again?
Did he hear the will of "God" and come to this warm world again?
What's more strange is that it doesn't feel unique fluctuations in it, but men are calm and abnormal.
I tortured myself to death in the bathroom before
Lu Chen looked at the "creature" in front of him and opened Wu Dao's heavenly eye with great interest to observe it.
[crazy communicator. Lanis]
Details: one of the lower dependents of the old God Cleopas, who is good at playing with people's hearts and manipulating fear.
Constitution: None
Power: None
Agility: 122 points
Spirit: 124 points
Charm: 5 points
Form of existence: Weird
Weird is invisible. It is born by the will of the old gods to stay in the world and absorb people's various emotions. There is no entity in the fundamental sense and is not hurt by any pure physical reason attack. After being eliminated by the "general" way, it will not really die. From that will, it will re absorb people's negative emotions and regenerate after a certain period of time.
Passive skill: Divinity
Skill function: thanks to the grace of kliraps, its existence itself has some divinity. Mortals can't look directly at it, otherwise they will be polluted by spirit.
Active skill: fear communication
Function of skills: it greatly affects people's mind, interferes with real scenes without substance, and releases people's inner fear until they go crazy.
……
Xiaobiezhi looks very good. Through some of his skills and characteristics, Lu Chen roughly knows more about the world. I'm afraid it was this creature that caused the disaster of abandoned buildings in that year.
The night watchmen of the morning church should be some extraordinary people who killed Lanis through special means. However, in this lower urban area with poor living conditions, it is too easy to absorb people's negative emotions, so it is "resurrected" again.
To put it more correctly, Lanis is not dead at all, because strangeness is immortal, at least for the group of night watchmen who came to deal with the incident.
The scene in the corridor at this time was more and more strange and terrible, but it was still common in Lu Chen's Wudao Tianyan's eyes. Even the image of Lanis was not what people saw in his eyes, just a gray air mass.
Obviously, Lanis uses fear communication to erode the man's mind and want to see the man's crazy expression.
But the man didn't, just slowly took out the killing Duke, put it on, put his arm through the sleeve, tidy up his collar, and then took out an ancient dark red ring and put it on the ring finger of his left hand.
Lu Chen didn't rush to start. He wore two pieces of equipment. The charm attribute instantly returned to zero, and the fear aura of killing the Duke's blood ghost skill was passively opened.
Lanis instantly felt that after the man put on his clothes, the whole man's temperament changed, like an abyss, and he was staring at him.
The dark red, almost condensed into a real evil spirit, spread like a shadow on the man, and gradually ruled the whole space.
Next, he saw the man grinning in his direction, revealing his neat white teeth and a chill.
Strangeness usually has no thought, but works mechanically according to the will of the ancient god, but Lanis felt something called emotion for the first time, and that emotion is called... Fear.
Lu Chen walked slowly along the road when he came, and the regicide appeared in his hand, while the monster in the middle of the corridor was retreating.
Lanis didn't know why he had to step back, but he instinctively wanted to run.
The man walked to the strange and looked up at the strange in the air. A pair of red eyes were like boiling magma, but there was a cold killing opportunity in the heat. He smiled and said faintly, "why do you rely on it?"
Lanis didn't understand. It just subconsciously continued to retreat, but the action finally stopped.
The Dark Blade crossed the dense will, and the pure intention of the knife pointed to the root.
Lu Chen turned around, straightened his collar, took back his knife and walked towards the stairs. When he went downstairs, he said the second half sentence, "... The charm is higher than me."
The building has five floors. Lu Chen was on the top floor and went down to the bottom. He pushed open the locked door, closed the door and tightened the lock cylinder.
It's dark outside. It's already five or six o'clock. In the early winter season, at this time, many people in Shangcheng district have left work and returned home to keep warm.
Lu Chen spits out a white fog and looks at the gray sky in the distance and the ancient city where lights are starting to light up.
Similar to the Gothic architectural style in the middle ages of Europe, the buildings in the upper urban area rise and fall irregularly. The tallest building can be seen at the highest place in the center of the city. The jagged slender towers are inserted on the slope at the top of the building like flags, giving people a solemn and sacred feeling as a whole.
That's kinkland Cathedral, part of the morning support church.
As far as the nearby field of vision is concerned, it is a mess. Lu Chen thought of it and took a breath of fresh air, but it still stinks in his nose.
Dumb - dumb——
The hoarse voice sounded over Lu Chen's head. Two crows crossed the sky. With the falling of the sun, the shadow of the abandoned building behind him became narrower and narrower, covering Lu Chen in the shadow.
On the street not far away, Lu Chen can see all kinds of excrement everywhere. It's not animal, it's human.
This is the lower urban area. It is dirty, messy and poor. When people's food and clothing have become a problem, their quality will be forgotten.
Lu Chen thought for a moment, stepped forward and prepared to "go home"
Yes, his former owner still has a residence and family. Otherwise, a person with abnormal spirit like him would never live to this day.
I don't know if it's a coincidence, or if space has used its strength to coincide the original owner's name with itself. The original owner's name is also called Lu Chen in the common language of the continent.
And he also has a sister one year older than him, named Lu Lin.
Lu Chen was surprised when he first saw this information.
He thought it was a western continent, but there were easterners with black hair and black eyes like him.
Looking carefully at the details in the memory of the original owner, Lu Chen roughly learned about the Sistine Empire, which is a huge empire with various cultural and ethnic lives.
White, yellow and even black people all live in the country.
How these different ethnic groups, who still have certain differences in their living habits and cultural habits, live in peace and friendship in a country is now unknown.
Now it is the third era, and the events of the first and second eras have long become dust. It is said that in the previous era, the East belongs to the East and the West belongs to the West. There are many countries.
But in the third era, the past history turned into dust, and there were only two empires left on the mainland, that is, the Sistine empire with divine power and the steam and machinery country that emerged 150 years ago.
Lu Chen's siblings live in the lower urban area, mainly to see a doctor for Lu Chen. They spend too much money to rent a house in the upper urban area.
In fact, Lu Lin, the former owner's sister, is still a top student who graduated from Noah public Theological Seminary. Now she works as a civil servant in a trading company in Shangcheng district. The salary is not high, but it is not that she can only rent a house in the lower urban area.
It is said that the eldest sister is like a mother. After the catastrophe, there were only two children left in the middle-class family, one of whom was mentally abnormal. It is not easy for Lu Lin to expand the original "Lu Chen".
