Looking at the tentacle monster, Wu Hao felt that his consciousness drifted away from his body, and his thinking became dull. Memories are like shredded pieces of paper, scattered in all directions when the wind blows.

Who am I?

You are me.

So who are you?

I am a Gu God.

Then I'm also a Gu God?

…… Yes.

He stopped thinking and walked into the drainage ditch step by step, into the [Gu God]. The girl on the top of the tentacle looked at Wu Hao, who was so well-behaved, and showed a sweet smile.

—————— dividing line in a pinch————

"Don't lose."

The hypnosis of the Gu God was very successful, it tore up everything that Wu Hao thought was self, but there was still something left.

That's a sentence, the agreement made by Wu Hao and the girl a long time ago.

Wu Hao was a little puzzled, his movements slowed down, but he still didn't stop.

"Don't lose."

The words materialized, and she stood in front of him.

The girl lifted the hood of her cloak, her chestnut hair spread out, and her blue eyes stared at him, containing an incomparably strong will.

Wu Hao's heart trembled.

"Don't lose, don't lose, don't lose......"

The agreement kept repeating, echoing in Wu Hao's heart. The Gu God's hypnosis was broken, and the memories and thoughts were still there, [shredded] were just hallucinations that the Gu God had made him.

Wu Hao woke up.

On the top of the tentacle monster's head, the face of the double ponytail girl showed a trace of unhappiness, she didn't expect that the hypnosis that she was determined to achieve would be so variable, but this unhappiness quickly calmed down, even if Wu Hao's spirit recovered, she still had control of his body, what could he do?

Wu Hao also realized this, even if he regained the ability to think, his body still didn't obey the call, and he still walked towards the tentacle monster step by step, getting closer and closer.

The tentacle monster shook its dense tentacles, as if in joy. Above its head, the double-ponytailed girl's grinning mouth grew wider, and he seemed to be able to imagine the two becoming one.

What to do?

Wu Hao was thinking about countermeasures in his mind, it was obviously unrealistic to rely on willpower to stop it, he could only rely on external force, where would he get external force?

In the upper right corner of the line of sight, the system's green glow flickers, as if to express its presence. Wu Hao had an idea.

"Unfold." He thought in his head.

The stun gun came to his hand, burning and stinging his nerves.

It was only in that split second that he regained control of his body.

Wu Hao raised his stun gun and shot out thunder and lightning at the fastest speed, and the target was not the tentacle monster and the naked girl growing on it, but the long blood-colored gutter with bubbles under it!

The white light fell into the blood, and the electricity climbed up the tentacle monster's body along the current.

Although it claims to be a god, it still can't break free from the bondage of the flesh, and the effect of the stun gun [which does great damage to the flesh] works well.

Wu Hao watched the tentacle monster's huge body twitch continuously, making a sound like a woman sobbing.

The roses and girls on the top of their heads also withered, and the dense bone spurs on the tentacles were also as follows. It shook, and then fell heavily into the water, splashing Wu Hao.

As the Gu God sank into the water, everything was gone. Carpets of black wool, blood-colored gutters, and large expanses of blooming roses. Everything was back to its original state, still that filthy sewer.

Wu Hao stood and let out a long sigh of relief. The tense nerves loosened, and he snapped and sat down.

Half of the barrel of the gun was dropped from his hand by a red-hot stun gun and fell into the sewage.

His hand hurt so badly that he took out his phone trembling and almost didn't fall off. Click on the dialed number, select Hayakawa's number, and call it, but it still doesn't work.

Straight sissy thief......

He stepped up and walked in the direction of the current.

Maybe it's a side effect of Gu God hypnosis, Wu Hao really wants to sleep. Eyelids kept fighting, but no matter what, he didn't want to sleep in the sewage.

Back to safety, I'm going to sleep 10, no, 12 hours!

I don't know how long I walked, but the light came from above. Seeing hope, Wu Hao changed from walking to running. At the end of the road was an iron ladder, and above the iron ladder, the door had been opened.

He walked out the door, and the dazzling sunlight blinded Wu Hao's eyes. At the entrance to the sewer, at a garbage collection site on the outskirts of Tokyo, a garbage truck is parked on the side, full of dead pigs and chickens, and flies circling over it.

Wu Hao really couldn't hold it anymore, he leaned on the doorknob and closed his eyes, but he didn't let himself fall.

The wind and clouds changed, and five minutes after Wu Hao fell asleep, the sun was covered by dark clouds, and the bean-sized raindrops wet his hair and flowed from his cheeks into his clothes, but he didn't feel it at all.

Behind the garbage truck, a girl in a gray raincoat walked out, she looked at Wu Hao who was leaning against the door and fell asleep, sighed, put the raincoat on him, supported him, and walked in the other direction step by step.

At the same time, on the other side, in a pitch-black hut.

A man sits cross-legged in the center, his lips pursed and his eyes closed, like a seated old monk.

A five-pointed star was drawn under him, and a few wisps of iron-gray mist floated from it, but it was quickly absorbed into it.

"Leader, there's bad news." A voice came from outside the door, respectful.

The leader opened his eyes, he didn't speak, but the diamond shape under him made a voice: "What's the matter?" ”

"The professor is dead, and the clone of the Gu God has also been killed."

"Who did it?"

"Wise Kogoro, that detective, that's what you said...... Son of the Gu God. ”

The chief held his chin and did not speak, and the man outside closed his mouth at the right time, and the hut fell silent.

"Is the true god alright?"

"I was a little frightened, after all, it was His doppelganger who died...... However, it is not a big deal. ”

"That's good," ordered the Commander-General, "and everything is going on as usual, as planned." ”

"What?" The man outside seemed a little unacceptable, "He killed the professor!" There is also the Gu God clone in the sewers, and at the moment we only have guys who can cause earthquakes! If something happens......"

"That can't be helped, and if the plan goes so far, there won't be an earthquake."

"But ......"

"I said," the Commander-in-Chief's tone fell, like a cold wind hanging from the frozen ground, "and everything is going according to plan. ”

“…… Be. ”

"Akutagawa," the Commander suddenly said something inexplicable in the room, "Do you remember the teachings of our Gu God Sect?" ”

"Of course I remember," Akutagawa's words were a little erratic, "for the Gu God Sect, there is no regret in nine deaths." ”

"Yes, for the Gu God Sect, there is no regret in nine deaths." The Commander said, revealing two rows of blackened fangs in his mouth.

"Heaven and earth are Gu, and we are all poor worms inside. There are some things that can be done, and it doesn't hurt to press them tighter, but if you cross that line, the nature is different. Did you hear me? ”

“…… Heard clearly. ”

"You go back first," the Commander waved his hand, "don't make trouble." ”

Akutagawa left, leaving only the empty hut.

The Commander didn't turn on the light, the darkness sharpened his eyes. He came to the wall, where there was a map of Tokyo, and some parts of the map, circled in red markers, were connected by lines.

He put his hand on the map, and on his shriveled right palm, his thumb was missing, and the remaining bit was tightly connected to his index finger through the tendon, which looked extremely terrifying.

Through the map, the Consulate General can see every corner of Tokyo. His eyes were empty, like a black hole that swallowed everything.

"Hehe, [the Knights] are here, and so are the explorers from the outside world. The actors are all here. Let me see what kind of farce you can compose! ”

A corner of the map, an apartment in Chiyoda-ku.

The sudden rainstorm soon stopped, and the black cat, which was hiding in the eaves to rest, opened its eyes, wagged its tail, shook off the raindrops that fell on its body, and walked out into the street.

The incandescent lights in the apartment were on, and a chestnut-haired girl passed out on the floor, and another blonde girl sat on a small bench, holding the chestnut-haired girl's mobile phone, looking at the two missed calls on it, silent.

"Now is not the time to contact her...... "The girl whispered, her voice cute and a little nasal.

She draped the gray raincoat hanging from her chair, tossed her phone into her pocket, and walked out the door.

—————— dividing line—————————

Wu Hao dreamed again.

It was still that dirty and dark basement, and the small Wu Hao was crowded in the crowd.

At the center of the crowd, the focus of attention, was the tall priest, preaching to the crowd.

"Look at this age without gods! Look at this faithless society! "The tall priest's face was hidden in his cloak, but his voice was impassioned." What have become of us? Egoism, money worship, worship God if it is useful, and abandon God if it is useless. We, who were supposed to ascend to heaven, have forsaken God's providence......"

Wu Hao stared at the tall priest, whom the professor had mentioned when he confronted him earlier. Is the priest he is talking about the same person as the priest who is preaching?

In the crowd, a girl turned her head and met Wu Hao's gaze. Wu Hao was startled, he remembered that girl: the brown curls hidden under the hood, and the big blue eyes, were the girl who said "don't lose" to Wu Hao, and they were also the key to Wu Hao's ability to break free from the spiritual shackles of the Gu God.

She...... Is it Izumi Hayakawa?

"Luckily...... We're here! The tall priest was still speaking, "The gods of the old could not bear to see humanity sink so much, and chose us as their spokesmen......"

"Ask!" A male voice sounded beside Wu Hao, interrupting the priest's gushing: "Mankind is sinking so much, how can we save ourselves in the abyss?" ”

The priest looked at the man who spoke with satisfaction, and although he thought that these people were only monkeys offered to the true God, it was good that there were monkeys who had gained wisdom through the revelation of God. His voice changed from impassioned to gentle: "We have to complete [the sacrifice], four out of five, which is the key to the liberation of [the true God] from myth......"

Below, Wu Hao made a few lip shapes at the unknown girl: "You-come-do-what-?" ”

The girl tilted her head and blinked her clear blue eyes in confusion. Wu Hao thought that she didn't understand what she meant, so she tried a few more times. The girl smiled and shook her head, pointing to her mouth and the black hood in her brown hair.

Wu Hao didn't understand it even more, but in the next second he understood what the girl meant. A young young female voice that had not yet reached the stage of voice change suddenly sounded in his head, not from his head, but he did [hear] it.

"Come—see—you."

"Clams!"

Wu Hao screamed, and the next moment he covered his mouth. Luckily, no one noticed the commotion.

"What-what-meaning-thought? I-come-to-this-in-is-you---ghost? ”

"They—they're coming—they're coming."

"What-what-idea-thought?"

The two of them were not talking on the same channel, and no matter how Wu Hao asked Hayakawa, he didn't answer his words.

She just smiled mischievously, her eyes turned in one direction, and motioned for Wu Hao to watch with her.

Wu Hao stared at her angrily, and there was nothing he could do, he looked in the direction of her eyes, and there was a door there, rusty, the same color as the wall, difficult to find.

…… What the heck?

In the next second, the gate was slammed open, and several uncles rushed in in full armor, perhaps the army, with guns in their hands, shouting: "Don't move!" ”

The people in the basement shouted, they also had guns, and the two groups of people were entangled together, and the priest on the stage tried to escape, but was cut into several pieces by the chaotic crowd.

Wu Hao ran over with the brown-haired girl, she pulled out the hood on her head, and pulled Wu Hao into a corner. Bullets flew in the small basement, some people fell, bullets pierced the skull, and blood mixed with foam flowed to Wu Hao's feet.

He held his breath, but his vision suddenly blurred.

The girl grabbed Wu Hao's wrist tightly, her hands were a little sweaty, but it was reassuring, she whispered to him, and she spoke quickly.

"On May 21, 1999, the army destroyed the Gu God Sect den in the Nerima area, and went back to investigate, which was the beginning of everything and the key to us uncovering the truth."

Wu Hao understood that this must be an important piece of information, and his vision became even more blurred, and he also began to have tinnitus. But he listened carefully to the girl's words and memorized every word.

He wanted to ask something, but he couldn't hold it anymore, his soul and body seemed to be separated, and only the girl's voice remained in his ears.

"We haven't won yet."

"Don't throw in the towel."
