Chapter 488: Chapter 173: The Bizarre Flashback 3
“Hiss... Leonard, why did you prick me?”
“So, elder, did I stick a needle into you yesterday?”
“Huh... you know what! I remember now, you did prick me! Ouch, it hurts... Oh,
I forgot, you seemed to have pricked a certain word on me...”
Leonard made a few attempts.
And he understood in an instant.
According to his careful thinking, once he discovered a problem, he would
definitely find a way to remind his next cycle self to make some preparations.
And all the scenes in the ruins should be rewinding.
Those preparations must have been left on the only unaffected Elder Clinton.
He didn’t bother to think about textual data.
The Leonard of yesterday must have considered this issue.
But the fact is, besides Elder Clinton’s own body, everything else on him seems to be rewinding too. Clothes, backpacks, everything.
Leonard had tried leaving tattoos on himself.
But they didn’t stick either.
Leonard gave up after trying several methods he could think of.
His personality was definitely the type to consider all the possibilities.
The only confirmed useful thing now was Elder Clinton’s unreliable memory.
Take a chance.
Leonard and his party walked on, casually chatting, and stepped into the pitch- black ruins.
They had noticed from the platform that there were many scattered buildings on the mountain.
After the four of them walked up, they did find rows of exquisite wooden houses.
The architectural style was older than the Taren Dynasty, with a magical touch.
Almost all buildings are purely wooden, with no steel or cement. Each household had various shapes of wind chimes hanging at their doors, and paper lanterns.
They finally realized what Elder Clinton meant by “many people”.
Because not only did a bustling night market appear on the streets, but numerous shadows appeared as well.
One, two, three... until they were everywhere.
They weren’t human in shape, most of them were grotesque ghosts.
The whole street was bustling with ghostly monsters that Enlightenment
Display marked as “Unknown Catastrophe Level”!
Yes, Catastrophe!
Not small monsters!
Ghostly Catastrophes just like that slit-mouthed woman!
Even Leonard couldn’t help but blink at this sight.
So many Catastrophe Level monsters, even a legendary fighter would probably fall before them.
Thankfully, most of these ghostly Catastrophes were marked as “Neutral” by the Enlightenment Display.
Furthermore, Leonard had a “Summer Shepherd Necromancer Affinity +15” aura, so these Evil Spirits didn’t appear to hold any ill will towards him.
Elder Clinton wasn’t affected either.
However, Catherine Carter and Colin seemed a bit conspicuous.
When those ghosts floated past, they stared at the two with a look that screamed, “Delicious food!”
There was even a Greedy Ghost, whose tongue dragged on the ground, who licked Colin’s face.
Just as Colin was about to take action.
Elder Clinton, as if he’d suddenlyremembered something, cried, “No!”
He tried to explain, “Oh, don’t start a fight in the city. Otherwise, the malice towards the residents might provoke a powerful Evil Spirit to come after you.” Would malice provoke hatred?
Leonard listened to this, and his eyes narrowed, “Well, well... this is interesting.”
Seeing the city filled with Catastrophes, this ruin was becoming more and more interesting.
Since he didn’t die yesterday, there must be a way to prevent attacks.
Moreover, normally, Catastrophe-level monsters wouldn’t gather like this.
The only explanation that the clues lead to now could only be the Angel’s Remains.
