Turbulent times, turbulent hearts.

"Eradicate the tyranny of mankind..."

...

The introduction at the beginning of the trial came to an abrupt end, "Huh?" I looked confused, "Is this book finally being seized?"

In the next second, the darkness in front of my eyes gradually receded. I blinked, and found myself in a dimly lit old room. The tattered wardrobes, the mold-covered corners, and the unidentified smell of the bed beneath me all meant that I was in an old house.

"What the hell?" I sat up from my bed. It's the first time I've encountered a situation where the introduction to the trial has been interrupted, and I haven't even introduced the main quest and optional quests. With a stroke of thought, I inquired about the tasks that I hadn't mentioned this time.

"Main quest: Get redeemed. Reward: Old Testament, Silver Item. ”

"Optional Mission: Become a Priest. Reward: Bible New Testament, Silver Item. ”

"Huh?" I scratched my head, "Shouldn't this be a three-body trial? Why is it suddenly covered with a strong Christian atmosphere? Am I being calculated by those Hades again?" The closet in the corner suddenly opened, and a music box fell out of it.

"There was a crooked man—" a high-pitched, shrill voice came out of it, "he walked crookedly for a mile, and he found crooked sixpence, on the crooked railing...", "This is—" I quickly navigated through my mind, "crooked man?

In the other room, Ke Hui sat on the bed, vigilantly looking at the white wedding dress that was dancing in the moonlight in front of the window, although no one was wearing it, as if he had a soul.

"Then this has a woolen relationship with 'the world belongs to the three-body problem'?" The inexplicable introduction of the trial made me a little confused, "Forget it, although I am unwilling, let's put this question aside for now." I stared at the music box that was running on its own, "I'm in the same room with the demon now, so it's better to be cautious." By the way, what about me?"

The wedding dance came to the window, and the cuffs stretched out to Ke Hui, as if inviting her to dance together. Ke Hui has seen the Conjuring series, although he can't quickly remember all the details like Su Ling, but at least he knows that the wedding dress possessed by the evil spirit in front of him can't be messed with. Therefore, Kehui just kept smiling, neither accepting nor refusing, and waited for the change.

After a stalemate of about a second or two, "Soul...", Kehui seemed to hear someone hissing in her ear, and at the same time, the wedding dress trembled back from her cuffs, and a rusty dagger stretched out from the other cuff and stabbed straight at Kehui.

", don't you know if you can limit the ability of the trialist?" Ke Hui had already prepared to evade, but she didn't expect that she was limited in this trial without saying a word, and she was just a girl in her early twenties. So though she avoided the point, the dagger stabbed her thigh, nailing her to the bed.

"Give me... Your soul!" the wedding dress gently covered Ke Hui's body, and the whisper floated in her ears again. But Hui Zhijue's brain was drowsy for a while, and the sharp pain in his legs couldn't bring back the consciousness of being far away.

"In the conjuring worldview, demons can easily kill mortals, but demons are not interested in it. "I rolled out of bed from the other side, one bed away from the music box. "What they want is the soul of man, and the soul of man cannot be taken by force, so he can only be coerced and enticed to make human beings willing to sacrifice their souls. Common demons can possess objects as well as people. Although the demons want souls, if I provoke them, I can't say whether these rival gods will kill me, or directly make me their carrier in the human world. ”

As I rolled over and got out of bed, I realized that my physical fitness was once again limited in this trial. "Again?" I grinned, "This time it's even more excessive, I don't even have a hint! ”

"Come, give me your soul...", a clear but ethereal voice sounded in my ears amid the cacophony of music. "Am I in the same room in London in The Conjuring 2 right now?" I ignored the voice, "There's too little information available for me to judge, I need to get out of the room and take a look." ”

I turned the doorknob, "Sure enough." I said helplessly. The Conjuring Universe has always had a routine, when you're in the same room with a demon, the door can't be opened. "I want, your soul!" the voice from earlier became urgent, and I noticed a dark shadow emerging from the music box.

"Go to Nima's. "Adhering to the idea of striking first and suffering later, I kicked on the music box while scolding my mother. It bounced several times around the room before landing on the bed. The music stopped, and for a moment there was a dead silence in the room.

"Roar!" a tall, lanky man dressed like a gentleman emerged from the music box, wearing a high top hat and a face full of hideousness and evil. As he roared, the umbrella he held in his right hand smashed straight at me.

"Damn!" I swooped forward, dodging the blow in a standard dog-eating stance. The handle of the umbrella slammed into the wall, breaking a half-human-high rift, and it seemed that I was completely enraged by the demon possessed by the music box, who no longer had to ask for my soul, and began to kill the killer.

I dodged the blow and hurriedly looked up, trying to catch the trajectory of his next attack. It's a pity that even if I caught it this time, it was still hanging, because the dilapidated wardrobe where the music box was hidden at the beginning was now being held up by an invisible force, hanging above me.

The wardrobe fell, and I had no chance to escape, so I had to change my position as quickly as possible. Fortunately, the wardrobe was open and side down, and I escaped with the help of the internal storage space, but my right hand could not be retracted in time, and I felt that my metacarpal bones would shatter directly under the pressure. This kind of old wooden furniture is quite heavy, and at this time I was buckled under it, and my right hand was still pressed, and it was difficult to get out of the suppression by my own strength, and I fell into a desperate situation for a while.

"Boom..."The wall behind Ke Hui was suddenly vigorously blasted open, and under the huge shock, Ke Hui regained his senses and ripped off the wedding dress on his body. "Alright, the short skirt can't be counted on!" she bit her left hand, and with her right hand she pulled out the dagger that had been nailed to her thigh. "Damn..."Ke Hui wiped away the tears that had just been forced out of the corners of his eyes and threw the dagger aside.

"Wow..." At this time, the demon attached to the wedding dress saw that the soul of the hand was gone, and he was annoyed and angry, and flew straight to Kehui. While pulling out the dagger, Ke Hui had already planned his escape route, turned around and drilled through the half-human-high crack that had inexplicably appeared on the wall just now, and came to another room.

This room was very similar to where Kehui had been, but it was a mess. Ke Hui looked at a slightly trembling wardrobe in the center of the room, and suddenly realized something, "Su Ling, are you down there?" she yelled. Before I could get a response, I felt that the wind was blowing on my head. Originally, the crooked man saw that there was a new prey sent to the door and wanted to entertain him, but the wedding dress that followed Kehui from the crack was unwilling to be Kobe, so he rushed straight over Kehui's head and twisted with the crooked man standing behind her.

"Save, save!" I replied loudly after hearing Ke Hui's voice, "Be careful! I have ghosts in this room too!" "I see it!" Ke Hui's voice floated in from outside the closet, "But he doesn't have time to care about me now!" I felt that one side of the wardrobe was lifted a corner, and it was estimated that Ke Hui couldn't handle this heavy furniture under the restriction of a person, so he leaned sideways and put his left hand into the gap that Ke Hui raised, gritted his teeth, and flipped the wardrobe away from me.

I did a quick check on my right hand after I got out of it, and it was completely useless, with the comminuted fracture debuff attached. "Thank you... What's wrong with your legs?" I observed that there was blood streaming from Ke Hui's thighs. "Little problem, let's go!" Ke Hui stroked his messy hair, "Everything in this trial up to now is inexplicable. ”
