Chapter 441: Infighting
As soon as Vidali was gone, everything was back to normal.
Smith and Mickey struggled to get up.
If it weren't for the dilapidated houses and the corpses of the scaly people in one place, they wouldn't have believed that there had been a fierce battle here.
Is this the cruelty of the otherworld? ’
Smith looked at it all and muttered to himself, 'Beneath the calm reality lies an incomparable danger.' ’
"Mr. Mentor, look at my father."
Vivien cried out for help.
Fang Xian walked over, looked at Lei Bo who had fainted, and nodded: "He's fine, fortunately, the transformation process was interrupted, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to turn back into a human being...... Even so, there should be a little sequelae, such as liking seawater and eating seaweed......"
"That's good."
Vivien was already crying with joy, she looked at her mother and brother who had fainted, and after checking it, she found that there was no serious problem, and immediately ran upstairs and brought down a file bag: "This is what the person just wanted from me, Spot's diary." I don't understand, why does Spot still need this diary? It was clearly written by him, and there was no secret from him. ”
Fang Xian took it casually, sensed the dark power above, and thoughtfully said, "Perhaps, what he needs is not the content of the journal, but the journal itself...... On the diary, a certain amount of ritual power was left, and after a long period of accumulation, the accumulated 'bad luck' accumulated in the hands of different people, even if it is difficult for Spot to make another book identical, and Videlli, as a descendant of Spot's bloodline, can undoubtedly become powerful by absorbing the power of doom in the journal...... Or is it a 'trap' that Spot left for Videli? ”
Although he didn't open it, he was slightly psychic, and he already knew the contents of the diary well.
"This diary is still handed over to Mr. Mentor for safekeeping."
Vivian looked at Fang Xian in a daze.
Today, it was the first time she had seen her mentor's true face.
Of course, Smith and Mickey are the same.
The reason why Fang Xian exposed himself was that he didn't plan to continue to be an investigator.
The end is near, and time is running out.
He had to devote all his energy to the study of important projects such as Hopkingden's divine art.
"The barrier here has been broken, and the strangeness will soon attract investigators...... Fang Xian looked around: "The two of them can leave with me, what are you going to do?" ”
Vivien froze.
It was only at this point that her mouth was open and she finally thought of the question of how to deal with the aftermath.
"It seems that you are still unwilling to leave your family and leave alone...... Then I'll help you hypnotize them, and treat today's events as if they were two groups of infidels fighting over the texts......"
Fang Xian waved his hand: "This can only buy you a certain amount of time, and then you still have to face a choice." After all...... Contact with supernatural forces is itself a sign of danger. ”
"I see."
Vivien nodded solemnly.
……
Bang la blah.
The white waves crashing against the black cliffs and rocks began and repeated, and seemed to continue forever.
In the midst of a loud slap.
Videli walked into a cavern.
The cave is located in the middle of the cliff, the ground is damp, the air is cloudy, and some seashells, hermit crabs and other creatures climb on the rock wall.
She completely revealed the appearance of a scaly man, ignoring them, but felt very relieved, and came to the depths of the cavern.
At the end of the cave, there is a turquoise pool, from which the salty smell of the sea constantly overflows, and this spring seems to be directly connected to the sea.
In the pool of water, you can see countless white bones.
Among them, there are fish creatures, and some of them are obviously from humans!
They are piled up in a mess, but they have a chaotic and asymmetrical beauty, and they give people an ancient atmosphere of ritual and sacrifice.
It's an altar!
An altar that belongs to the Scales!
Videli walked to the edge of the pond and opened her mouth to chant a mantra using the scales' unique vocal cord construction.
Invisible ripples spread quickly with the help of seawater.
Ten minutes later, a dark shadow appeared at the bottom of the pond, seemingly swimming at the speed of a torpedo through the passage with the sea.
Crash!
The sea broke, and an old, scaly man stepped out, and said in an ancient and obscure language, "My descendants...... You've failed...... You've disappointed me! ”
"Spot...... We are all slaves of the great, don't always ......think of yourself as my ancestors," Videli snorted.
"Your bloodline is not pure, you must get my diary in order to perform the purification ceremony, become a true scale man, and march towards antiquity, towards greatness......" Spot said in a godlike tone.
"I know everything you said...... I still know...... What you did to my ancestors, and the curse of the sea......" A smile suddenly appeared on Vidaly's scaly face.
"You ......"
Spot's expression changed, and he felt the darkness around him invade, making him half-kneel in pain, as if he was about to overflow with real pain.
"It seems...... The damage that Roca has brought to your spiritual body is even more serious than I imagined...... Haha......"
Videli laughed maniacally, suddenly rushed forward, opened her mouth wide, showed her sharp teeth, and bit down on Spot's shoulder.
Burst!
A piece of flesh was bitten off by her and chewed it vigorously: "It is worthy of a scaly person who has entered the old age stage, and there is a second way to purify the bloodline in addition to holding a ritual, isn't it?" ”
"How do you know? You want to betray the sea? ”
Spot struggled, and couldn't imagine that this descendant, who was played and manipulated by him, would actually set a trap to kill him!
"I didn't betray, the big fish eat the small fish, it is originally the biological chain of the sea, and it is also the rule of nature...... It is also permissible to kill each other among the scales and let the stronger take the position...... Look...... The fact that the Deep Sea Elder has not withdrawn its favor is the best proof of this! ”
Videli recited the incantation, and the water suddenly swelled, forming a whirlpool.
In the midst of the whirlpool, dense crowds of piranhas emerge, numbering enough to make the scalp tingle.
In the next moment, the vortex engulfed Spot, and a trace of blood spread.
"After purifying my bloodline, I am the new High Priest of the Scales...... I will sacrifice to the Elder of the Deep Sea, and with his permission, I will go to the palace of the Great One......"
Videli looked mad.
……
"Infighting? It's just too normal for a half-crazy infidel......"
Fang Xian closed his eyes, and the psychic came to this scene: "Hmm...... Sacrificing to the elders of the deep sea and using it to reach the palace of the Great One is indeed a way to bypass the surveillance of the Secret Keepers......"
