Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Truth
The plane roared from a distance, pierced the sky, slowly descended in the blue sky and white clouds, and docked on the runway accurately.
His whole body was shrunk in a wide black cloak, and across from him sat two men dressed in costumes embroidered with stars and moon symbols.
"We're in Boston, Deacon Michiel. ”
Of the two sitting across from the cloaked man, the older one suddenly spoke, and then shifted his gaze to the cloaked man: "Come with us, Mr. Benjamin, don't keep the governor of Massachusetts and the legislators waiting. ”
"Okay, Bishop Smith. ”
Benjamin nodded reluctantly and spoke in a hoarse voice.
No way, his vocal cords had already begun to rot, so Benjamin spoke with a lot of effort and unpleasantness.
Mihir and Smith, two possessors of supernatural abilities from the Church of the Eternal Night, Smith is a second-level transcendent, and Mihir is the new first-level transcendent.
After Benjamin was discovered, they were the escort of Benjamin from the Church of the Eternal Night, after all, Benjamin had a lot of connections and needed to be guarded by the Transcendent.
And, in a sense, Benjamin, who came back from the dead, is also one of the transcendent.
Compared with Michiel and Smith, who looked calm, Benjamin looked a little depressed and felt a mess in his heart.
He lied.
When questioned by the New York State government, Benjamin, who came back from the dead, lied.
Because Benjamin has been skeletalized and dead, his whole body does not have the slightest temperature, and his heart naturally does not fluctuate, and instruments such as lie detectors have no effect on him.
Benjamin's face was half a skeleton, half of his face was rotten, and his facial expression was even more flattering, and in this case, no one could tell the subtle changes in his face.
And because of the damage to his vocal cords, unless it is too obvious, he can't hear any difference at all, and the government can't judge the truth of the matter from this point.
At the same time, Benjamin is not all lying, between half-truths and half-truths, it is even more impossible for New York officials to judge the authenticity, which is why Benjamin can pass the test.
In his memory, he did go to a mysterious space, and the monster named "Ghoul" in that space was also real, but he lied about the point that slipped out in the end.
Benjamin himself knows his own affairs, he doesn't have much ability either in life or after death, he belongs to the kind of person who 'what to do, eat first', he himself can't believe that he can escape from that space full of monsters.
In fact, he knows very well and understands how he came out.
He told a ghoul leader a series of information about the location of the rice country, how many cities, the most famous cities, etc., and this ghoul leader also sacrificed the information to the existence they served, the supreme lord.
Thinking of this, Benjamin's body couldn't help but tremble.
Seeing Benjamin's body trembling, Smith opened his mouth to comfort: "Don't be nervous, the officials in Massachusetts won't embarrass you, we are here." ”
"No... It's okay. ”
Benjamin shuddered, and the suffocating name kept flashing through his mind: the god of the eerie bones, the king of ghouls, the great....
Thinking of his name, Benjamin couldn't help but feel a sharp pain in his head, his head had obviously turned into a skeleton, how could there be any pain?!
He immediately emptied his mind and forgot the name of the Great Being, so that the pain slowly disappeared and turned into nothingness.
Of course, Michiel and Smith noticed what happened to Benjamin, and couldn't help but ask carefully, "Are you okay? What is there in Massachusetts that would make you have such a change?" ”
"It's okay..."
Benjamin took a deep breath and shook his head hard, squeezing out a smile that seemed terrifying to Michiel and Smith.
What exists in Massachusetts?
Benjamin didn't know, he didn't know what was going on in Massachusetts from the beginning.
The so-called fact that he knew was just an excuse for Benjamin to escape New York.
Because when Benjamin made a deal with the ghoul leader, he naturally focused on the city where he lived, New York.
He believed that it would not be long before the terrifying "grim and chilling god" would descend on New York, bringing a devastating blow to New York, as New York officials put it, like the "eyes of destruction."
He didn't know how terrible the eyes of destruction were, but he knew the horror of the gloomy god of cold bones!
He's already died once, and he doesn't want to die again!
That's why he came to Boston, because he believed that no matter how horrible Boston was, there wouldn't be as terror as New York.
While he was stunned, Michiel and Smith had already shook hands with a group of officials in Massachusetts and had a cordial and friendly exchange: "Eternal night, I am Doyle-Smith, this is Deacon Michiel of the Night Watch, and that one is Mr. Benjamin."
"Hello, I'm the Governor of Massachusetts, Anger. ”
The governor also hurried up and shook hands with the former Columbia University teacher: "Eternal night, we've been waiting for you here for a long time, and you're finally here." ”
Smith feigned surprise and said, "Mr. Governor also knows about our Church of the Eternal Night?"
"Of course, the Lord of the Night is as great as a being worthy of the faith of each and every one of us. The governor said yes.
After a bit of business blowing, the bearded general of the military said straight up, "Mr. Benjamin, what do you think of the strange things that happened in our Boston?"
Benjamin said hoarsely, "I see... These things are inseparable from the family of the eerie god of cold bones, the existence of ghouls..."
"Ghouls?"
The general pondered carefully when he heard this, but Smith was a little unhappy: "Are you talking about the kind of monster that is short and similar to a zombie?"
Benjamin wrapped his cloak: "No... It's just the ghouls in our game, the ghouls I said... It's the monster I introduced before, you should know, kobold, fungus-wrapped, like to eat human flesh, and have a certain amount of intelligence..."
Before the bearded general could ask, Smith on the side asked Smith, "Then why don't you rename it to make it easier to distinguish it from the ghouls we know." ”
Smith has some ghoul abilities, and he doesn't want to be thought of as a kobold.
"Because that's what they call themselves..."
Although the sentence sounded a little helpless, Benjamin's hoarse voice seemed emotionless: "This is the recognized racial name of the monsters, the name recognized by the two gods. ”
