Chapter 594
When Margaret walked out of the dungeon, her face was not unsightly, and she was shocked and terrified by the half of the information she received from John.
Unexpectedly, Charlie Hawkins, who was no longer in her eyes and thought that it was not a threat, actually planned to sacrifice the entire Blackwater Island, intending to resurrect the old gods.
She had no doubts about the authenticity of this matter, but knowing that it was another matter, how to stop it, and now that Charlie Hawkins was missing again, and she didn't know what method he used, she had to rush to find the guy before he started the plan.
"Everyone immediately go out to search for me, and don't let go of any suspicious characters!"
The energy of the ancient Blackwater Island Guardian family began to work, and began a carpet search of the entire Blackwater Island.
Lakeside Hospital.
Fuller sat upright in his office, fulfilling his duties as dean, and in a short time there was a knock on the door, and he asked to come in without raising his head, but the man who came in did not speak, and he looked up in surprise, and the pen in his hand fell to the ground.
"Check... Charlie..."
Seeing Fuller's panicked appearance, Charlie's mutated face showed a playful expression, "What's wrong?" Was it a surprise to meet an old friend? ”
"It's very unexpected..."Fuller nervously wiped the cold sweat that couldn't help but ooze from his head, he really didn't expect Charlie Hawkins to come to the door at this time, or rather, he didn't expect the other party to be so bold and come to his hospital in such an open way, isn't he afraid of being discovered? With the way he is now, I believe that as long as it is a person, it will feel wrong, right?
Charlie smiled, his appearance became more and more penetrating, he came to Fuller naturally with his own plans, this is an important part of his plan, "Fuller, I think you haven't forgotten our previous agreement, right?" If you can't remember, I think I can help you remember. ”
With that, he walked towards Fuller.
Seeing Charlie approaching, Fuller nervously stepped back with a chair, waving his hand and shouting, "No need, no need, I remember!" ”
Charlie stopped, and the only half of his face that was still human sketched a playful smile, "Since you remember, then I don't need to say more, now the time has come, and it is your turn to fulfill your promise." ”
Fuller, who was no longer close to Charlie, breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but hesitate a little when he heard the words, "Are you sure you want to do this, you must know that Edward is now..."
"I'm here to let you fulfill your promises, not to listen to your suggestions, you just need to implement them!" Fuller's words were brutally interrupted, as if the name Edward had pricked one of his nerves.
The two former best friends, now things are not people, and they have nothing to say like strangers, so that the atmosphere has been silent.
After half a ring, Fuller's nervousness from the beginning also calmed down, "This time you come, take Sarah with you." ”
Charlie frowned when he heard this, "She is safer with you, and then you will be the only one in the entire Blackwater Island, and I, as the presiding over the ceremony, will hardly have any life." ”
"Then why did you do it when you knew you were going to die? Edward is dead! Stop doing unnecessary things. Fuller couldn't help but snap the case, with a look of anger on his face. He couldn't even say anything before, for the sake of the old friendship, he didn't care what happened to the other party, and he didn't dare to say something, but he also said it at this time, "I know you want to resurrect Edward, you give me some more time, as long as I study the Leviathan thoroughly, there must be a way..."
"I can't wait, Fuller...", Charlie suddenly coughed violently, couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of green blood, between breaths, as if it was a bellows-like voice, "The power of the curse is about to erode every inch of my body, I just want to see Edward be reborn before I die!" ”
Fuller was silent for a long time, and finally sighed faintly, "I understand, I will fulfill the promise between you and me." ”
Charlie had a smile on his face, albeit oozing, but slightly warm, and before leaving, he made a request that he wanted to meet his wife, Sarah Hawkins.
In the special ward, Fuller took Charlie to the same ward where the bee-eating exercise was held before, "Sarah is here, you can go in if you want..."
Charlie waved his hand, "I'll just look at her." ”
Fuller nodded and left alone, leaving space for the poor couple.
Through the slit, Charlie saw the person he had been thinking about for a long time, she was still so beautiful, and the years did not seem to have left any traces on her, just as when they first met.
Although he was cursed because of her, he never resented it, maybe this was their fate, God's punishment for them.
Otherwise, why would their children die young? Otherwise, why are they cursed? All this seems to be predestined.
"I'm sorry, Sarah, maybe we won't be able to see each other again after this time, but I'll get my son back to you, and everything will be at peace..."
Charlie turned away without looking back.
In the hospital room, Sarah, who seemed to feel something, came to the window, but unfortunately she didn't see anything.
Leaving the special ward, Fuller took Charlie to the old warehouse where the Leviathan was stored, why did they come here? The answer will be revealed later.
But seeing Fuller bypass Leviathan's corpse and come to the cistern in the warehouse that connected to the lake outside, he took out a bottle of green powder from his bosom, and before unscrewing the lid, he hesitated, but finally gritted his teeth and began to pour the powder into it, and then he pressed the switch next to the cistern, and the water of the green powder flowed down the sewer into the lakeside.
Seeing Fuller finish all this, Charlie finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Now, just wait for those islanders to drink the curse into their stomachs, and they will be eligible for sacrifice..."
Fuller nodded, and was about to say something, when a loud shout suddenly sounded, "Don't move!" ”
The two followed the prestige, but saw a middle-aged policeman in a police uniform with a visible scar on the corner of his mouth pointing an old-fashioned pistol at them.
The two of them were no strangers to him, because there were not many policemen in the entire Blackwater Town, and Fuller's face turned pale instantly, "Bu... Officer Bradley..."
Even though he is a scientific maniac, he is still a human after all, as long as he is a human being, he naturally has a sense of awe for law enforcers, and Fuller's mind is now full of how to explain his previous actions and get rid of blame.
Speaking of which, why is Bradley here? After his previous conversation with Margaret, he returned to the police station and was caught in a reminiscence of his past glory, which may not be accurate to say that he was enlightened, but he still wanted to atone for the mistakes he had committed in the past few years.
Before Margaret said that there was a problem with the lakeside hospital, so he waited for an opportunity to lurk in it, and he was not discouraged for several days without harvest, until Charlie appeared, he followed the two all the way, discovered the secret passage, discovered Leviathan, from the initial shock, and believed what Margaret said, this is indeed a huge conspiracy, Fuller and the other mysterious person, planning something unfavorable to Blackwater Town, so he couldn't help but stand up.
"Explain, what's going on."
Hearing Bradley's cold inquiry, Fuller couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat again, flustered.
Compared to Fuller, Charlie was much calmer, and since Bradley appeared, he remained silent until this moment, when he spoke, "Long time no see, Officer Bradley..."
Hearing Charlie's familiar voice, Bradley had a look of disbelief on his face, "You... Are you Charlie Hawkins? ”
Charlie slowly lifted his hood, revealing his mutated face with an oozing smile on his face.
Seeing this familiar face, Bradley looked shocked, at this moment his mind was full of dead people, how could they be resurrected? What's going on with him now?
Just when he was stunned, Charlie suddenly moved, and the alienated tentacles of his right hand suddenly stretched out and knocked out the gun in his hand, and the open tentacles wrapped around his body to lift him off the ground.
Casping the constricted tentacles on his neck, Bradley only felt that it was extremely difficult to breathe, and the lack of oxygen caused his vision to begin to blur, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly, never thinking that his path of atonement would end like this.
'Click'
The sound of a broken neck rang out, and Bradley's body was casually discarded on the ground.
Fuller's face grew paler as he looked at Bradley's body, but the thought of what they were going to do seemed to make killing a cop seem trivial again.
"The corpse is handed over to you to dispose of, and everything is still going according to our plan."
Charlie left, leaving Fuller looking at Bradley's corpse in a daze, "Don't blame me, who told you to kill yourself, I hope you can be happy in heaven..."
Bradley's death seemed to open a curtain chapter, and the powder that Fuller threw into the lake was ground from the heart of the Leviathan, and once drunk, it had the energy of the Leviathan and was eligible to become a sacrifice.
The entire town of Blackwater depends on fresh water from the lake, but when the powder is poured into it, every household becomes a sacrifice without knowing it.
So far, Margaret has not found Charlie Hawkins, she is becoming more and more anxious, and she loses her temper at every turn, making her subordinates wonder if she has reached menopause early, but how do they know that their fate has long been in the hands of others.
Seeing that the day of John's sacrifice was getting closer and closer, Margaret, who had not intended to let John go, could only let him go, so as to learn about Charlie Hawkins's conspiracy, and she had no time to waste.
When Margaret returned to the dungeon, John smiled, knowing that Margaret would definitely come to him, "Well, have you figured it out now?" ”
Margaret nodded coldly, "As long as you say it, I will guarantee to let you leave Blackwater Island safely." ”
John smiled, picked up the water glass on the ground and was about to drink it, but suddenly realized something, immediately put it down, and said lightly, "I'm going to go to the dock now, and I'll tell you when I get on the boat." ”
Margaret frowned slightly, John's unintentional act just now was seen in her eyes, and her heart suddenly became suspicious, she suddenly had an idea, her eyes flashed, and asked, "Why don't you drink this glass of water?" Do you suspect that I have been drugged in the water? ”
John's face froze, and he waved his hand as if he didn't care, "I just don't feel thirsty." ”
"Is that so?" The corners of Margaret's mouth curled slightly, but when she saw that she suddenly kicked John to the ground, she picked up the glass of water and pinched his mouth, and poured the water in the cup into it.
John, who was unwilling to drink water, struggled violently, but the water still ran down his throat and into his stomach, and his eyes were full of despair at the moment, "It's over... It's all over..."
Looking at John like this, Margaret felt as if she had found a clue to what happened, and she continued to ask, "What is it about this glass of water that scares you so much?" Now that you've drunk, it doesn't matter if you don't want to say it, you'll die anyway. ”
John looked at Margaret with a resentful expression, gritted his teeth and said, "Even if I become a sacrifice, you can't escape the fate of becoming a sacrifice, with so many of you dying with me, what am I afraid of?" Hahaha..."
Looking at John's crazy appearance, Margaret thoughtfully, the sacrifice, water, this is the key clue, it seems that drinking water becomes a sacrifice, she thought of the book left by the teacher who once taught her to use the old seal, maybe she can start from the word sacrifice and find the problem.
Unknown islands.
The altar in the dungeon was in a mess at the moment, surrounded by the ruins of the dungeon building, the stains of blood and the fragments of Leviathan's flesh. It's not hard to imagine what kind of big war took place here before that.
Suddenly, a piece of Leviathan's corpse moved, but a pale arm pushed it away, revealing Edwin, who was covered in bruises and wheezing violently.
In the face of five demigod-level Leviathans, even Edwin was seriously injured at the moment, but fortunately, the characteristic of vampires is to suck blood to treat his body, and in the process of fighting, if he hadn't beaten and sucked, I'm afraid he would have been torn to pieces by this group of murderous guys.
Luckily, he had the last laugh, and I'm afraid that even the person who put the Necronomicon here wouldn't have thought that someone would be able to break through this group of Leviathan guards, right?
After resting for a while, the injuries began to heal, the powerful physique and self-healing ability of the vampire true ancestor were revealed at this moment, the blood holes of several fatal wounds on his body began to shrink, and the flesh and blood began to heal and recover, until the wounds gradually disappeared, as if they had never been injured.
With a trail of blood, Edwin slowly stood up and walked towards the altar where the Necronomicon was placed, the closer he got to the Necronomicon Book, an invisible force began to spread, causing some images in his mind that were fleeting and difficult to remember, and at the same time some unknown language, as if auditory hallucinations, he ignored everything, came to the book, and opened the book almost without any hesitation.
The next moment, the pages of the book bloomed with a strong dark green light, and several thick tentacles suddenly reached out from the pages and grabbed Edwin, as if to pull him into the book.
