Chapter 722: So Confessed

Although Moon Spirit and Moon Dust can move, they still don't seem to be very clear.

Among them, the Moon Spirit was the most obvious, she only gave a few simple answers to my questions after waking up, but she didn't ask too many questions.

Although Yuechen was still as silent as before, I noticed that she had been touching her forehead with her hands, and sometimes touching her belly a few times, it seemed that the Gu worms in her body had really been seriously affected by those previous "Gu spells".

I became a little suspicious of what I had just heard from the half-infected, after all, according to the content of the mural, the physical characteristics of those creatures were completely varied, and I was not sure that there would be some strange creatures with the shape of a stone, or a dead wood-like appearance......

But after more than ten minutes of walking, I noticed that the danger seemed to dissipate as the sandstorm had receded, and there was silence all around, as if nothing had happened.

We quickly circled back to the area where we had entered the small castle, and found that the sentry was still in place, but the wounds on its body were still there, and it did not look like it would be able to recover anytime soon.

And the opposite...... I noticed that the wounds on its back were showing signs of spreading.

I asked Yue Ling what was going on, and Yue Ling shook her head, just worriedly saying that the sentinel's situation was probably more serious than she had expected, but she couldn't explain the specific situation now, and she just wanted to see if the Holy Maiden knew some treatment methods when she went back.

Without further ado, we marched again.

Nothing happened on the road.

After returning to the villa area, I asked these 20 or so semi-infected people to mingle with Tan Wei's people, some of them knew each other, and after meeting, they inevitably hugged their heads and cried.

But I'm a little numb to that now, and I don't feel much about it now.

I was a little tired from such a tossing inside and outside the small castle just now, and I fainted once, so my current spirit seems to be a little poor.

Not to mention Yue Ling, Yue Chen, and Ouyang Shuo, the faces of these three people were much paler than before, as if they had lost too much blood.

I thought that in our current situation, especially as the Sentinel's injuries were getting worse, it didn't seem wise to proceed hastily, so I planned to take a break and let the Holy Maiden see what the Sentinel's situation was.

However, after reading it, the holy woman said that she didn't really know what was going on with the sentinel's injury, she just said that the injury was bitten by a very strong Gu worm, and if she wanted to recover, in addition to time, I am afraid it would depend on the sentinel's own physique and part of her luck.

I frowned, the Holy Maiden said this to mean nothing, because the Moon Spirit had actually said the same thing before, but I felt that this Holy Maiden might be deliberately hiding from me, and she didn't seem to want to tell the truth completely.

But......

Why did she hide it from the Moon Spirit? If she cared about me, she could have called the Moon Spirit aside to communicate alone.

When Yue Ling heard that even the Holy Maiden was helpless, a trace of obvious panic began to appear on her face, and it didn't seem to be pretending, she kept muttering nonsense such as "this is trouble" and "what if the sentinel dies".

I couldn't help frowning, Yue Ling's performance was too abnormal, this was not her usual style at all, it seemed that the so-called "spiritual impact" just now had a great impact on her and her sister Yue Chen.

Moreover, Moon Ling had said that she would ask the saint about the frescoes and other things related to voodoo on my behalf when she returned, but she had no intention of doing so now, and felt like she had forgotten.

It seems that the only person who is completely sober now is probably myself, and I feel that even Ouyang Shuo seems to be a little abnormal now, when I was just talking to the Holy Maiden, he actually ran to the side and retched a few times, as if he had eaten something and had a bad stomach......

I thought that it was time to have a showdown with the Holy Maiden, and that I had to ask her if she knew anything about the frescoes, and if she did, I would have to take her further to the vicinity of the castle and ask her to translate for me what the frescoes were to say.

Soon I caught up with the saint before she left, and called her to a place away from the crowd.

The saint seemed to have seen that I had a full stomach problem, and said in a tone that seemed to be a smile rather than a smile: "Looks like you've encountered something that can't be explained, right?"

"That's right!" I nodded, "Didn't I just want to ask you for advice?"

The saint shrugged her shoulders and said, "Sometimes things that can't be explained don't need to be explained, and when you need an answer, the answer will naturally appear." ”

......

I grass, the tone and way of speaking, for a moment I almost thought that the soul of the moon spirit was attached to the saint.

I shook my head and shook the absurd thought out of my head, then took a deep breath and asked, "Moon Spirit said that you and your voodoo members are from Haiti. ”

"Yes. The saint nodded.

"You're similar to the nature of the advance team, aren't you?"

"That's right. The saint nodded again.

"Then I ask you...... Your successors...... When are you coming?"

"I don't know. The saint shook her head and said, "We have lost contact. ”

"Can't you communicate remotely through Gu worms?" I frowned and asked, "Aren't you able to transmit sound for thousands of miles?"

"This transmission is also limited by distance, not as far as you want, let me tell you this, the largest range is actually the area of this villa, I am not a god. The saint's answer was smooth, as if she were waiting for me to ask the question.

"Good. I nodded, "Then let me ask you, have you ever searched the interior of the town area to the north?"

"Nope. The saint said, "What's the matter?"

"Really?" I had some doubts in my heart, knowing that the place was so close to here, and the Holy Maiden had no reason to never send anyone there.

"Do you think I need to lie to you?" said the saint.

I really wanted to say "necessary", but I held back.

"Then I can tell you, there's a building over there...... It seems that you voodoo people built it. I said slowly.

As I said this, I fixed my eyes on the saint's face, trying to see from her expression whether she was lying, but I found it impossible to see the expression on her mask...... Eventually, I had to give up.

The saint blinked, "Really?

"It's like one of those medieval castles. ”

"Oh......" the saint touched her chin, "you mean it's the same castle you saw near the reservoir before, right?"

"That's right! The shape is exactly the same! The only difference is the size! This one is much smaller here!" I said hurriedly.

The Holy Maiden nodded again: "It's nothing, before the catastrophe began, some members of our sect had already come to Huaguo to conduct research on the relevant Gu worm virus. ”

"Oh, who are they working with? can't it all be on their own, right?" I asked tentatively.

And the Blue Bird Company. I didn't expect the saint to say this directly.

I'm even ready to question and refute her, and it doesn't seem like I need it now.

"Then why didn't you say that before?" I asked, frowning.

"Because our collaboration was terminated very quickly, the project proved to be useless and didn't matter to us. The saint said.

"How do I feel about hearing what you mean...... You don't seem to know much about that project?" I asked.

"I don't know, after all, I wasn't involved in it at the time. The saint shrugged.

I hesitated, but finally didn't tell her about the Origin Project, feeling that I was still in a "dark place" now, and I could try to use what I knew now to see if this saint would lie to me.

I continued: "I saw some of the ...... inside and outside the building of that little castle Some very strange mural patterns. ”

"Oh?" said the saint, who seemed a little surprised, "what fresco? is it the same as the fresco you saw in the last great castle?"

"Some of the content is the same, but there are a lot of new content, and ...... And what I found to be about the murals seemed a little weird. ”

"Hmm. The saint looked like she was thinking.

"I want to confirm one thing with you first, are all the contents of these murals painted by the voodoo sect realistic?"

"That's right. Without thinking about it, the saint said: "This kind of mural is a complete narrative painting, and you can understand it as keeping a diary in the form of pictures. ”

"Okay, but I don't quite understand some of the content patterns on it. I said.

"Yes, this composition is only understandable to the internal members of voodoo. The saint nodded: "This is normal. ”

"I think there's some key information recorded on those patterns that might be of great help to us, you ......."

I was about to ask her if she could come with me to see it, but before I could finish my sentence, the saint volunteered and said, "So that's the case, then you'd better take me to see it now!"

......

Forehead......

The conversation was completely beyond my expectations, and I had thought of how I could persuade the saint to come with me, but now it seemed that there was no need for it.
