Chapter 1298: The Story of the Niki (6)
Then I heard Dawn start saying something in Niki, but I couldn't understand a word.
But I don't know what he's talking about, but I feel like I've entered an illusory world of happiness now, and the smile on his face now not only doesn't make me relax, but gives me goosebumps.
It's like...... It's as if he's possessed by some ghost!
"Dawn?" I called his name as I tried to shake him awake, but he was clearly completely trapped and completely indifferent to my shaking.
Just as I was about to forcibly drag the morning light away, I heard a small but clear shout from nearby, in the direction of the mountain wall, which I could not hear clearly, and they were like a large crowd singing in the mountains.
The voice grew stronger at a rapid pace, and then I saw some vague figures emerge from the black forest we had just retreated from.
I didn't expect those voodoo people to remotely manipulate these things to attack us after they left?
But before I had time to think about how to deal with it, I realized that these figures that appeared this time did not have the slightest sense of murder, because although they appeared suddenly, the speed was not fast, and it could even be described as "walking".
The smile on Chenxi's face became more obvious, and at the same time, he finally said a sentence in Chinese: "Xiao Chen...... My friends are back......"
I frowned, and it seemed that there was still some consciousness left in the dawn at this time.
"What friends?" I hurriedly took advantage of the opportunity to ask, "Do you know them?"
"Of course...... Chenxi nodded heavily, "They are all my people!"
I was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly looked at the place where those figures were concentrated, and I was surprised to find that these figures were indeed Nicky people, although their figures were very ethereal, but the appearance was indeed Nicky, and their voices were now more clearly heard, it was indeed Nicky.
No wonder I didn't understand it at first.
"Where did they come from?" I continued to ask at Dawn, "Why didn't we meet each other when we climbed the mountain before?"
However, Dawn didn't answer my question this time.
I wondered if the energy suppression I had just suffered on the mountain wall was actually from them? It was the "soul" of these Niki people that made my energy fail, and then suppressed my constitution?
If that's the case, doesn't that mean I'm going to face the same threat again?
At this moment, the previous "female ghost" actually appeared with her, but her appearance was different from those Nikkies, she still appeared in the way that she "appeared out of thin air" in front of me.
Like Chenxi, this "female ghost" is also smiling this time.
"Who the hell are you!" I yelled at her.
But the "female ghost" wasn't looking at me at all, she was just staring at Chenxi this time, looking like she was communicating with Chenxi spiritually.
I took out the Gu Musket and was ready to protect the dawn at any time.
However...... The "female ghost", like the Nicky figures who were slowly approaching, had no intention of attacking, she just walked slowly, or "floated" to the opposite side of the morning light, and stood still......
I didn't dare to make any other moves, because there was a large army of resentful spirits approaching right now, and if I provoked her or those resentful spirits behind her, I would have to give an account of a hundred lives here.
Then I was amazed to see that the "female ghost" actually touched the head of the morning light, which was very similar to the stroking action I had seen in my lucid dreams when the new god conferred the title on the saint.
Dawn didn't react, just stared at the "female ghost", and then the "female ghost" disappeared.
I'll go...... What the hell is this situation?
At the same time that the "female ghost" disappeared, Dawn finally stood up, only to see him look at me and say, "They're back." ”
"Your people?" I asked, frowning.
Dawn nodded.
"Did you remember something?" I continued.
Dawn nodded: "These bastards...... They've killed so many of us!"
"Who are you talking about?
"It's not...... It's them!" Dawn turned around and pointed to the location of the camp we had just passed by, "It's those bastards!"
It turns out that he said voodoo!
"Could it be that the threat that the woman spoke of before her death came from voodoo?" I said in amazement, "Could it be that they were already here then?"
"It's definitely not just them, the Blue Bird Company is 100% among them, but these voodoo are the direct murderers!" Dawn said angrily.
I turned my head to look at the resentful spirits in the distance with the appearance of Nikki, and said incredulously, "There must be at least a few hundred people here...... Have so many of your people died?"
I have the impression that the mass death of the Niki only occurred after the disaster, one died on Taoyuan Island, another when the Niki retreated with us from the southern foothills, and the last one died after we were separated from the villa area and later captured by the Taoyuan Islanders in the castle.
If this time is added, then the Niki people have experienced four large-scale annihilations before and after, so that now only Dawn is left......
Dawn nodded: "I don't remember before...... But now I remember it!"
Dawn's last sentence was worth recalling, and he said he didn't remember...... There are only two possibilities for not remembering, or he is too painful to remember, causing his latent consciousness to selectively lose his memory. Either that, when the voodoo cult killed their people, they also used some special means against the Niki who were still alive, causing all Nikites, including Dawn, to have a blank memory.
Judging by the woman's behavior of visiting the Nicky settlements and warning them before her death, I think the latter is much more likely.
And there are so many Nicky, it is impossible for Dawn to be the only one who has selective amnesia, so it seems.
It is not too difficult for voodoo to use the Gu worm virus to make a group of people amnesia, which also shows that the Nicky people's bodies have actually been modified by the Gu worm virus at a very early age.
The only thing I don't understand now is why they are doing this, and what good is it for them?
......
I had thought that when the "female ghost" disappeared, the rest of the Nikki resentment spirits would also disappear, but that was not the case.
Dawn had gotten up and walked over to the Nickies' resentful spirits, his gaze sweeping over the illusory faces of the Nikites. I saw a little sadness in his eyes, but more anger than that.
I cautiously said beside him, "If you remember something crucial...... Yes, you can tell me......"
Chenxi nodded and said, "You don't have to worry about the energy problem of this southern foothill mountain, I know how to solve it." ”
I was a little happy, it seemed that Dawn already knew what the problem was here, but my doubts were even greater, what could it be that made the energy of Nanlu Mountain so powerful?
I saw that Dawn began to circle around those Niki resentful spirits at this time, and the speed of his circle was neither fast nor slow, but his eyes always met with those Nikites.
After walking in a circle, Dawn knelt directly on the ground, held the ground with both hands and performed a few Niki special gifts, and muttered a string of Niki words like chanting scriptures.
When all this was done, Dawn got up again, but unlike before, when he got up this time, I saw all the Nikki resentful spirits turn around and rush towards the mountain wall behind the black forest.
These resentful spirits were light in form, and as they approached the mountain wall, they quickly rose up along the mountain wall one after another.
The sight was spectacular, the resentful spirits scattered, each crawling towards a cavern, and soon a large number of metal balls were broken and thrown out.
Some of these spheres fell into the black forest, and many more fell into the sea.
Massive amounts of crystalline powder were scattered from the air, and I watched them gradually dissolve into nothingness in the air.
As the powder dissipated, a scene that surprised me even more appeared, only to see that the resentful spirits of the Niki people actually dissipated one by one with the disappearance of the orb powder......
And this, in fact, is the same as the situation in the cave behind the black forest at the beginning, the "female ghost" also disappeared after the powder in the sphere disappeared, although it appeared again later, but it lasted for a rather short time.
And at this time, the "female ghost" appeared for the third time, and this time her eyes were staring at me!
I couldn't help but take a few steps back, and said to myself, could it be that this "female ghost" was going to cross the river and tear down the bridge to attack me? But she didn't do anything, just made some expressions that were almost pleading.
Then I heard Chenxi say to me, "Xiao Chen...... If we want to get rid of voodoo interference and get to Langley Island smoothly, we must have her help!"
"She?" I pointed to the "female ghost" and said, "She can't even speak, how can she help?"
"She needs your energy. Dawn said, "As long as you help her, her survival time can be greatly extended! enough to support us on our way to Langley Island!"
"I don't understand......," I said with a frown, "Her energy is obviously stronger than mine, why does she still need my help?"
"You still don't trust her, do you?" Dawn saw through my thoughts at a glance, "Did you see the spirits of my people just now? ”
"You mean...... The powder in those orbs is their own source of energy?"
"Yes. Dawn nodded.
"But I saw that you were the one who made them do that. ”
"That's just what you see. Dawn said, "Without her help, it would be impossible to make them obedient." ”
Although my heart was full of doubts, because this "female ghost" had saved me many times, coupled with my trust in Dawn, I still chose to believe.
Still, I asked one of the most puzzling questions: "If this woman knows you, why did she try to attack you before?"
"Maybe she didn't recognize me at first. Dawn said, "But she knows you." ”
"I'm sure I haven't seen her!" I said.
"It's not clear. Chenxi said a little anxiously: "If you don't want to regret it, you'd better move faster, she has been out of the energy source for a long time now, and her own remaining energy may not last long." ”
I nodded, and said to myself, could it be that she had something to do with the Blue Bird Company before, and if that was the case, then it would be normal for her to have seen my photos.
"What should I do?" I asked.
"It's very simple...... "Just release the energy in your body!"
I took a deep breath, but before I could activate it, I saw the "female ghost" come to me with a flash, her expression was also very eager, and she nodded at me.
I hesitated for a moment, and my heart said that horizontal and vertical is a fight, and there is nothing to lose after I release the energy, as long as there is enough time, this energy can still be replenished after all.
As soon as I closed my eyes, the energy in my body began to quickly emanate from the pores around me.
When I opened my eyes again, I noticed that the image of the "female ghost" that had been empty before had become more and more real, and if I didn't look closely, I would probably think it was a real person!
She was right in front of my eyes right now, and I couldn't help but reach out to her......
Well......
The touch is still the feeling of resentment of the spirit, but this time the "female ghost" spoke: "Xiao Chen, thank you." ”
I took my hand off her shoulder and stepped back a distance, "Why didn't you speak before?"
"Because I was very weak at that time. ”
"What do you mean, the resentful spirit is also weak?"
"Resentful spirits are also a type of living being. She smiled and said, "Of course it will be weak." ”
"You have the strength to attack, but you don't have the strength to speak?" I frowned and said, "I'm already cooperating with you now, I hope you don't lie." ”
"Don't worry. The "female ghost" said: "I just want to help you, the energy source that supported me before was controlled by other people, it is not easy for me to keep my mind from attacking you, once I speak, it will inevitably be heard by the person who controls the energy, so I don't dare to do that." ”
"Who's manipulating you?"
The "female ghost" took a deep breath: "You have already seen it just now, they are all voodoo people!"
