Chapter 1104 Truth II
"Since the Cataclysm, Fadien has appeared. No one knows how it came about, and no one knows why it appeared. In short, it's like a storm, like heavy rain, ice and snow ....." Angela said with a wave of her hands and a low expression on her exaggerated expression.
"But don't worry too much, Fadien's appearance is an omen to judge. Her expression quickly returned, "If you give me more medicine, I'll tell you how to avoid that damn monster!"
"You just mentioned the White Knights, what group do the White Knights belong to in the Church of Isis? Lu Sheng asked.
"I don't know much about the rest of Isis's internal situation, except that the White Knights are a group of immunized people who are responsible for various dangerous tasks such as cleanup and search and rescue. They are called White Knights because they wear white armor all year round. ”
Angela's face changed slightly when she said about this group.
"A word of advice, when you see the White Knight, it's best to run far. ”
"How?" said Donn, surprised, "aren't they the armed forces of the Church of Isis?"
"Yes, they are the power of the church. But I always felt that those who were wrapped under the armor were just as much monsters as the ghosts. Angela said in a deep voice.
"Do you want to see it? Soon after Fadien appears, the White Knights of the Church will come over, and they will always appear where Fadien left. I don't know what they're looking for, but every time. She whispered again.
"Also, in front of the White Knight, don't make drastic movements, don't make any movements that look like attacks. They don't pay attention to you and only react to certain individuals. ”
"Doesn't that sound strange?" said Donn, speechless.
"It's weird. But.... I once heard a phrase from the Pale Bishop. Angela sighed, "They, just more focused than the average person." Focus to numbness. ”
For a while, Lu Sheng's forehead Tang En was thoughtful.
Angela stopped talking, and began to eat vigorously and vigorously, her stomach seemed to never be filled, and the endless food was eaten into her stomach, like a bottomless pit.
Lu Sheng simply began to close his eyes and get quiet, Tang En was frightened and tired in the evening, and he also shed a lot of blood, and he was already sleepy, and he also dozed off on the table.
When Angela finished eating, she sat down at the table, her hands folded, her mouth babbling, not knowing whether she was praying or what she was saying.
Before you know it, hours have passed.
Suddenly, Angela, who was fiddling with the pill box, was agitated, and her body stiffened.
"Hear me, the white knight of the church is here!"
Lu Sheng opened his eyes suddenly, and the physical fitness of the fifth stage combined with the fighting skills of the grandmaster level made him only slightly injured last night.
Although he was hit hard, after adjusting the force in midair, the injuries on his body were not serious. Just rest well for two days and you can get back to normal.
Seeing Angela's abnormal reaction at this time, he slowly straightened up and stood up.
Strangely, he didn't hear any sound at all.
The ground outside the basement was silent, and there was no sound.
With his keen five senses at this time, he should not be worse than an old woman who is at least seventy or eighty years old.
Although it has only been promoted to the fifth stage, it is also much stronger than the five senses of ordinary people.
"Can't you hear it? The sound outside, the rhythmic footsteps....." Angela showed a frightened and frightened expression, and her body unconsciously became more clumsy.
"I didn't hear anything. Don said inexplicably.
"Same. Lu Sheng looked at Angela's gradually nervous expression, and always felt that this look seemed to be seen somewhere.
Suddenly, his heart moved. He took a step forward, grabbed Angela's hand, and pulled out the arm she had been hiding in her sleeve.
On the old woman's thin white arm, she actually sewed a wound more than ten centimeters long with needles and threads.
The wound was like a worm, slowly shrinking, and fine blood seeped out slightly.
The most incomprehensible thing is that one end of the needle and thread of the wound is connected to Angela's other wizened hand. She even pulled the needle and thread from time to time.
The wound kept pulling as she pulled, and it hurt just by looking at it.
"What is this? What are you doing?!" Don was startled when he saw Angela's arm, and stood up and took a few steps back.
"Oh, yes.... I forgot to tell you, only in pain can you see the White Knight, and Fadien..."Angela smiled eerily. With one hand, he took out two round finger cuffs from his coat pocket and placed them on the table.
"It's something for the clergy of the church, you can try it. She pushed the finger guff towards Lu Sheng and the two.
"Sure enough..."Lu Sheng suddenly understood. The so-called White Knight, the so-called Fadien, are all existences that must be in a certain mental state in order to be seen.
There is no way to see these monsters in a normal mental state.
It's the same painful world he was exposed to.
"If you need to feel the pain to see the White Knight. So, I'll give it a try. ”
Lu Sheng's heart moved slightly, and he picked up a finger sleeve from the table.
The finger cuff looks like a metal cylinder wrapped around the tip of the finger. It was like a black glove missing a chunk.
Lu Sheng carefully put his left hand into the finger cover, and each finger was firmly dressed.
At the end, there is a strap that is the decoration that fastens the finger cuff to the wrist.
After wearing it, the overall look is a hollow black glove.
Smack.
Lu Sheng buckled the strap.
Five spikes popped out of his finger sleeve in an instant, piercing through the cracks between his fingernails.
Not!!
The fingernails were pierced through the gaps, and this kind of pain made even Lu Sheng feel slightly.
There was a momentary pause in his mind, and the pain rushed into his mind like a tidal wave.
He could feel his temples thumping, and for a moment it seemed as if he couldn't hear anything in his ears.
The whole brain is filled with only pain.
But the strange thing is that in the midst of this intense pain, he clearly heard that something seemed to be slowly approaching.
There was a slight bare in front of him, but when the pockmarks of the dazzle slowly receded.
Accompanied by severe pain, Lu Sheng suddenly felt that everything he saw in front of him was different....
What was once a dark and spacious basement was transformed into a dilapidated, decaying, cobweb-covered ancient cellar.
Don couldn't see it, and Angela was lying on the table next to her, a look of madness and fear on her face.
Knock, knock, knock.
A heavy, rhythmic crash slowly moves across the ground outside the basement.
"Hear me.... Do you hear that....?" Angela laughed and whispered. "It's the White Knight.... What are they looking for, what are they searching for...."
"I'll go and see, you're staying here. Lu Sheng endured the severe pain and commanded.
"Aren't you afraid?" said Angela, looking at him in amazement.
Anyone who suddenly enters this fantasy scene should be surprised and shocked, but the man in front of him naturally accepted this situation.
and then reacted immediately, which made her suddenly a little impressed.
"Why be afraid?" Lu Sheng asked rhetorically, even under the severe pain, he still spoke clearly and his tone was clear. "Could it be safe to hide here if you're afraid?"
Under Angela's astonished gaze, he slowly walked up the basement stairs, ready to open the basement door.
Oh!!
Suddenly, Don's voice came from behind him.
He also came.
He was rolling on the ground with his hands covered, so painful that he couldn't even speak.
"Pain affects all our perceptions, what you see, will no longer be what you saw before, what you hear, and what you heard will no longer be what you heard before. What you touch will also become something else in the twist of pain. Angela laughed.
"This.... Such.... Isn't it just.... Living in an illusion....?" Don covered his hands and was covered in sweat, and replied intermittently.
"Hallucinations?" Angela laughed, "maybe the world we live in is the so-called hallucination?
"After all, our world is formed by my perception..."
Don couldn't argue.
He struggled to his feet, barely looking at the rotten and old cellars around him.
It's a completely different place. Is it true that the previous world is an illusion, and everything in front of us is real?
"There's no point in arguing about that. Lu Sheng stood at the door of the basement and turned back.
"For us. Which one is comfortable, choose the one to be real. ”
Without waiting for the two to answer, he reached out and grabbed the iron door and twisted it hard.
Click.
A faint ray of heavenly light was projected from outside the door and fell on Lu Sheng's face.
The city outside is no longer the modern city of high-rise buildings as before, but all kinds of buildings like religious buildings, twisting and turning, and pitch black like strange trees.
Some buildings are spires like pyramids, some are crooked like spiral staircases, some are like giant sculptures, or weathered boulders like half-eaten cakes.
The streets are no longer smooth road surfaces, but pitch black potholes, like black mud on the wilderness ground.
Lu Sheng looked down at himself, at this time he was no longer his usual appearance, but a gray and black linen dress, wrapped from head to toe, similar to the Wellington who picked up Anne before.
He had some suspicions that Winrington might have been used to this outfit, so he changed to the same outfit in the normal world.
He raised his hand, and his skin was pale and rough, with some conspicuous purple patches on it.
The purple patches made him feel bad.
Putting down his hand, Lu Sheng looked out from afar.
Directly in front of the street, there were tall knights in white armor, whose faces were completely shrouded in white armor.
They wore heavy white cloaks with silver spikes at the ends. It seems to be walking around slowly and aimlessly.
