Chapter 194: Man-eating monsters

Two days went by in a flash.

On the morning of the third day, Lin Ze received a notice from the sect and came to the sect's headquarters to conduct a power enhancement ceremony.

The person in charge of presiding over the ceremony was a high-ranking priest named Gao Jianhai.

After arriving at the sect headquarters, Gao Jianhai took Lin Ze to the prayer room.

It is said to be a prayer room, but it is actually a spacious and bright hall, and in the center is a tall statue, which is the god Fire Infant revered by the Fire Infant Sect, and the image is exactly the same as the photo pattern all over the Red Fire City.

The two stopped in front of the statue, and then listened to Gao Jianhai's solemn explanation: "The ritual is very simple, just pray as usual, and ask the gods to give the power of fire. ”

Lin Ze glanced at the statue, recalled the information about prayer in his mind, and after a few seconds, he knelt on one knee and closed his eyes to make a gesture of prayer.

As soon as the thought of praying for more power of the flame came to him, he felt a connection in the depths of his mind.

Following the connection, Lin Ze vaguely felt a burning and fiery will.

"Is it true that there is a god if you are connected?" he was surprised.

Although the name of this game copy is called Alien God, Lin Ze has always been skeptical about whether there really is a god, and some suspects that the Fire Infant Sect is just maintaining its rule in the name of a god, and it was not until this that the doubt in his heart wavered.

"Still, there seems to be something odd about this will. ”

In Lin Ze's feelings, this will was filled with a large amount of flame aura, scorching and blazing, which was very consistent with the identity of the god who controlled the power of flames, but in addition, it also contained wisps of tyranny and distortion, but the latter was hidden very deeply, he could only faintly feel it, but he couldn't get in touch with it deeply.

And when Lin Ze's mind came into contact with the flame breath on the periphery, he felt a whole shock in his mind, and suddenly woke up from the prayer, opened his eyes and looked, and found that the statue in front of him had a faint red light at some point, followed by a little light particles overflowing from the surface of the statue's body, floating in front of Lin Ze, and gradually condensing into a light-colored light cluster the size of a pigeon's egg and as crystal clear as a ruby.

"This is the power of fire. Gao Jianhai next to him suddenly said, "Catch it, and then absorb it." ”

Lin Ze stretched out his hand as he said, and let the light cluster slowly land between the spread palms, and as soon as it touched the skin of the palms, the light clusters instantly submerged into his body like ice water melting.

In an instant, he felt that he was much more connected to the fire elemental energy in the air.

Summoning the panel, the fire power has been increased to 2 scales.

"It's just 1 tick added. Lin Ze was a little speechless, but after thinking about it, the flame power had become twice the original scale, and if he thought about it like this, the increase seemed to be not small.

"Alright, the ceremony is over here," Gao Jianhai interrupted his contemplation, "I hope you will continue to work hard to increase your strength in the future, and strive to increase the membership level again as soon as possible." ”

"I see, thank you. Lin Ze got up from the ground, paused, and asked, "High Deacon, take the liberty of asking, what scale is the flame power possessed by the three-star divine disciple?"

Gao Jianhai glanced at him and said casually: "3 scales." ”

"Every time a formal Divine Disciple is promoted to a member level, the amount of Flame Power that he can possess will increase by 1 scale in turn, and only when he reaches the level of a high-level Divine Disciple will the Flame Power Scale be greatly increased. ”

Lin Ze suddenly bowed his head, and his gaze swept over the flame embroidery pattern on the chest of Gao Jianhai's uniform, and the five flame embroidery patterns represented the identity of the latter's five-star god disciple.

"I wonder how many scales the flame power of the five-star god disciple has?"

Doubts are doubts, looking at Gao Jianhai's appearance, he probably won't tell himself, so Lin Ze didn't ask much.

After the ceremony, he immediately turned to the terminal to exchange skills, and then went to the public hall to cultivate, and found that the fire elemental energy he could control had indeed increased a lot, almost doubled.

"Sure enough, the power of fire is actually equivalent to the power to manipulate the energy of the fire element. ”

Lin Ze opened his palm, and a fist-sized flame condensed between his palms.

As the power of the flame increases, it seems easier for him to do this kind of thing, but the 2-scale flame authority is still a long way from freely manipulating the flame, and he doesn't know how many scales it will take to reach the point of free manipulation.

Shaking his head to disperse the flames, Lin Ze continued to cultivate.

Late at night, living room at the accommodation.

Lin Ze sat on the sofa, watched the clock on the wall until twelve o'clock, and felt that the whole world was quiet for a moment, before leaving the residence and going out into the street as usual.

In the past few nights, he has explored almost the entire city center, but still found nothing.

"According to the heretical girl, the phenomenon of late-night devouring happens every night, in other words, the unknown danger of causing ordinary people to disappear appears every night, and if you continue to search, you will encounter it sooner or later, but you don't know how long it will take to do so. ”

Lin Ze thought about it for a long time, and decided not to hide his figure carefully as before tonight, but to search directly to improve the search efficiency.

Just like when he was tracking down heretic girls, he used his aura to condense a mask on his face, and after covering his face, he walked to the middle of the street and began to search around.

After no longer having to carefully hide his figure, Lin Ze's efficiency really improved a lot, and he quickly searched around the building, and then simply condensed his flame wings and flew into the air to look around.

After flying four or five hundred meters along the main road, he finally saw a figure disappear in a flash a thousand meters away.

Seeing this, Lin Ze couldn't help but be happy in his heart, the flame wings fanned, and the whole person had swept out like lightning, but he arrived at the sky above a park in about ten seconds, and after a little feeling, he quickly noticed that a breath was hidden in the flower bed behind the fountain.

He scattered his flame wings and fell directly from the sky, smashing into the hard ground like a boulder, making a muffled sound that startled the people hiding in the flower beds.

"Ahh

Lin Ze looked at the man in front of him who was lying on the grass like an ostrich, his body trembling, he was wearing a home pajamas, which were stained with a lot of mud and dust, and even the slippers on his feet were missing, and he seemed to have experienced a hasty runaway.

After the man screamed in horror, he deceived himself and lay on the ground with his head in his hands, but after a while, he found that there was no movement behind him, and he cautiously looked up and looked back, and when he saw Lin Ze, he was stunned for a moment.

"Y-You're human?"

"Same as you. Lin Ze said.

Hearing this, the man couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and looked Lin Ze up and down for a long time, and only after confirming that he was a human like himself did he breathe a sigh of relief.

"Hold, I'm sorry!" the man came back to his senses, smiled at Lin Ze with some embarrassment, and hurriedly got up from the ground, and then remembered the scene just now, and opened his mouth wide again, "Wait, wait! Then how did you just get from the sky?"

This guy reacted half a beat slowly! Lin Ze said secretly in his heart.

Without waiting for him to explain, the man suddenly came to his senses: "I understand, you are a disciple of the Fire Infant Sect!

Lin Ze didn't answer, it was not a good thing to admit that he was a disciple at this time.

However, the man apparently recognized him as a disciple of the Fire Infant Sect, and he suddenly became excited.

"Great, Lord Disciple, I thought I was the only one who had encountered this kind of thing, and the whole city seemed to have disappeared all of a sudden, and I couldn't see half a figure."

Lin Ze interrupted him: "What's your name?"

"My name is Li Hua. ”

Lin Ze nodded and continued to ask, "You just yelled not to eat you, what's the matter?"

As soon as these words came out, Li Hua seemed to remember something terrifying, his face turned pale, and he hesitated for a while before he said in a trembling voice: "That, that's because I met a monster!"

"Monsters?"

"Yes, it's a huge head burning with flames!" Li Hua swallowed, looking terrified, "As soon as that monster saw me, it shouted to eat me, and then it rushed at me and scared me half to death!"

"And how did you escape?"

"I was in the underground parking lot and there was a fire hydrant next to it, so I had an idea and sprayed the monster in the face with a dry powder fire extinguisher, and then it escaped from the parking lot unprepared, and ran a long way to hide in the park, and then I met you. ”

Li Hua still had a palpitating expression on his face.

Lin Ze was moved in his heart, and after searching for so long, he finally found something.

Judging from Li Hua's words, most of the monsters he encountered were the real culprits that caused the phenomenon of devouring in the middle of the night, eating ordinary people who did not disappear after twelve o'clock and could still move freely, and when six o'clock in the morning arrived, the ordinary people who were eaten were equivalent to disappearing from this world without anyone knowing.

At this moment, Lin Ze finally knew the true face of the late-night devouring phenomenon, but new doubts arose, where did those monsters come from?

"If you want to find the answers to these questions, you must first find the monster that Li Hua said. ”

Lin Ze quickly had a plan in his heart, and just as he looked up and wanted to speak, his expression suddenly moved, and he suddenly turned his head to look not far to the right.

At the same time, a sharp voice that was neither male nor female suddenly sounded.

"Quack, look what I found, two humans with high soul strength!"

With the sound of sound, a few trees on the edge of the grove not far away collapsed, and the branches and leaves burned with a snort.

The light of the fire tore through the darkness in an instant, reflecting a figure rushing out of the trees.

It was a huge head more than two meters in diameter and burning with flames all over its body.

The head seemed to be magnified countless times the head of a baby, the skin was miserable white, there was no hair, the eye sockets were also dark and deep, there were no eyeballs, and the grinning mouth was full of dense serrations as sharp as a cone.

As soon as the flame head appeared, the dark eyes stared straight at Lin Ze and the two, as if they were looking at them, and the corners of their mouths finally opened a hideous arc.

"If you eat it together, it's sure to be delicious!"
