Chapter 102: The Stone Eater

Li Zu stood on the shore, and everything went back to the beginning,

Naturally, that also included the boat that Charles Reed was on, which had now returned to where it was supposed to be.

The water is empty.

Li Zu pushed open the door.

Now he doesn't have a single "debris" on him, and now he has to start from scratch and search for three stones.

"Excuse me~"

With a wicked laugh in his voice, the door opened.

A frightened face was facing the doorway.

It is a person carved out of stone, as agile as a living person.

Judging from the movement of her hand, it seemed that she was about to open the door just now and invite Li Zu to come.

Li Zu bypassed the stone statue in front of the door, but in front of him were human statues of different shapes.

Each stone statue is moving and lifelike.

"Do you want to get No. 3 Reed right now?"

Li Zu tugged at the corners of his mouth and looked at the stone statues that were full of them.

He still has the upper hand of reason now, and he didn't take the initiative to catch Reed to expose his existence.

How many more reincarnations do you have to go through?

The hall was filled with strange humanoid stone statues, and in addition to maintaining the posture of human movement, the faces of each stone statue were facing the door, as if they were paying attention to Li Zu's arrival.

"Very grand welcome ceremony, thank you~"

Li Zu nodded at each of these stone statues facing him, in his eyes, there seemed to be no stone statues here, but living people, living people.

It's crowded and lively.

"Ahem~" like someone is spitting.

Strange monsters are lurking here.

A dozen.

"Oops!"

Li Zu checked the two guns, and after the knife was broken, now his bullets were about to be exhausted.

"The last bullet has to be kept for yourself, don't you?" Li Zu said as he lost the gun that had run out of bullets.

"Lend it to you!" Li Zu carried the thin lady statue next to him and threw himself at the monster.

Gollum coo ~ The monster was smashed out of juice, and the stone statue also "banged" and shattered all over the ground.

"I'm sorry~" He only had time to say a word, and then grabbed the stone arm on the ground and rushed forward.

The solid stone arm is enough to smash the monster into a pulp with a single blow, and naturally, the stone will shatter more completely.

The carved statue of a beautiful and charming lady was smashed by Li Zu's "spicy hands".

This battle gradually evolved into a monster smashing game.

"Gross!" With a sound of vomiting, a black viscous liquid slammed in.

Li Zu dodged around, and threw out the right hand of the stone that was still holding in his hand, and the index finger of the stone was like a non-standard, nailing through the monster's cracked head.

Bang Bang~ He clapped his hands and patted off the stone chips on his body.

"I'm sorry for the loss of five of your companions, I'll pay if you collect anything other than bullets~" Li Zu began to search.

Every corner.

Not on the ground floor.

His gaze turned to the second floor.

As expected, the second floor is also full of humanoid stone statues.

Here he also found stones that had been stolen by the faithful.

"Smashed?" The stone inlaid with the "shards" was stolen by the group of crazy believers for "unknown reasons", but it seems that they did not use the stone to make the stone statue, but smashed it with a hammer.

In the distance, a long table was set out, full of stone statues.

The appearance of their eating is lifelike, as if they are really eating something peerless, but when Li Zu looked closer, he realized that they were eating "stones".

"Teeth?"

Li Zu's eyes were attracted by the teeth on the table.

That's blood, human teeth!

Crushed, cracked tooth fragments.

On the table in front of each stone statue, there were a bunch of teeth scattered around.

"What a sculptor of details" Li Zu leaned closer to the face of a "gentleman" and could see that he was missing five teeth from his mouth, and on the table, there were five teeth.

"Hehe, interesting"

Li Zu withdrew his gaze, but suddenly heard footsteps coming from downstairs and at the stairs.

"Found it!" The fragments were on the table, not hard to find, but the footsteps were getting closer.

Li Zu walked quickly to the staircase.

The stone statue, which should have been in the hall just now, was gathered at the corner of the stairs at this time, and seemed to be preparing to climb up.

Stomp ......

There are also footsteps on the second floor.

Li Zu turned around and returned to the second floor, and found that the stone statue that should be sitting at the table on the second floor had already gotten up and gathered at the staircase on the second floor!

Stomp ......

Behind him the footsteps came again,

He quickly turned around, and the stone statue had gathered half a meter behind him.

Li Zu made a quick decision, turned over and jumped down the stairs.

Behind him is the sound of footsteps going downstairs!

On the first floor, the stone statue in front of it has also turned to face the staircase.

The amazing thing is that as long as Li Zu's gaze is directed at them, it is absolutely impossible to see them moving.

Uncanny!

Li Zu quickened his pace and ran out, and when he passed by the fragments of the stone statue all over the ground, he noticed that the stone statue not only had the appearance of a human being, but also had the organs of a stone!

Break through the door and summon the Eagle Maiden.

In the frantic struggle of the Eagle Girl, Li Zu left this "weird" gathering place of cultists.

Fly high in the sky and look down.

The stone statues had already gathered on the shore, gathered on the roof, and "farewelled" Li Zu with teeth and claws left.

"Hahahaha!!"

Laughter resounded across the water.

……

……

On the first day that the "Charon" came to Oakmont again, Li Zu had already arrived at his destination as fast as possible.

Basilica of Saint-Michel,

He had already collected the other two fragments, and now he was about to open to see the final "roots" and understand his "role".

However, the Basilica of St. Michel at this time, was empty.

Li Zu quickly entered the basement.

Blazing flames poured out of the corridor.

The screams of people, the crackling of the flames, and the pious voices of prayers sung in pain.

When Li Zu finally entered the basement, he only saw the fire flickering on the altar, as if everything that had just burned was just an illusion.

The hot ground proves that everything just now is not an illusion, but a mysterious power has taken away everything, but not the blazing temperature.

"Let me see"

Knock knock! The heartbeat is noticeably faster.

Three fragments successfully opened the door to "all endings".

The twisted walls cracked, welcoming Li Zu in.

Ahead, deep sea ......

……

……

Oakmont appears to have been built on a floating island, with the ocean floor leading in all directions.

And what is the force that makes an island levitate above the sea, not moving, and not leaving the location marked on the map?

Maybe it's the indescribable again.

Li Zu, who was wearing a diving suit, moved slowly in the sea, and he walked all the way until his final destination appeared in front of him.

A shipwreck!

"This is it?"

The magical power enveloped the wreck, and when he got on board, there was plenty of air, and he no longer needed to wear a bulky wetsuit.

"Charon?" He was puzzled again, and the words on the side of the ship would never be mistaken.

Did he return to Charon again, or did he never leave Charon?
