Chapter 68: Encounter Again

After a while, the gunfire finally stopped, but the streets of the abandoned town were already stained red with blood.

The hot blood quickly coagulated on the cold snow, and human stumps, severed arms, severed hands, and even severed heads were everywhere, as well as the corpses of trolls that had fallen like terrible deer-clipped monsters.

These monsters exude blood and decay all over, and the claws of their palms easily leave deep scratches on the bark of trees, enough to knock down trees that block their path.

They are agile, powerful, and extremely cruel......

But fortunately, they were still able to be effectively killed by bullets, and the people who chased the Holy Trinity rushed out of the wasteland woods outside, and the number of people who chased them all the way to this deserted town was also limited.

Therefore, after the soldiers of the Holy Trinity relied on the buildings in the town as fortifications, under the command of various commanders, they finally survived this wave of annihilation with difficulty.

The cost was just over two-thirds of the dead and wounded, and the few bullets were largely empty...... It's just gratifying.

“…… Is it safe now? ”

Brewster Murphy, standing on the second floor of a building on his crutches, asked in a deep voice when he heard the gunfire outside stop and turn into cheers.

Although he tried his best to maintain his majesty and calm mental quality, his slightly trembling legs and feet betrayed him ruthlessly, after all, this kind of thing is not something that can be encountered every day.

"Yes, sir. Our soldiers have already repelled those monsters...... But our situation is not very good, and the ammunition is basically depleted. ”

The commander standing at the top of the staircase reported the situation with an ugly face, and it could be seen that he was not too able to accept this reality.

"And we suspect that those deerclops are something called Wendigo, a legendary monster."

"Wendigo?" The old man frowned, he had an impression of the word, but he didn't know much about it.

"Yes, sir, that is part of the traditional beliefs and taboos of the Algonquins of the northern United States and Canada, especially among the Ojibwa, Sorto, Cree, Nazcapi, and Innu."

The Commander tugged at his facial muscles and squeezed out an ugly expression that he didn't know if it was a smile or not, because the Holy Trinity Organization had to chase all kinds of lost legends and set foot in hidden places around the world for many years.

As a superior commander, he also knows a lot about the folklore, legends, and religious beliefs of many places, after all, these are all things that he usually has to do and may be able to use at any time.

However, he has always only regarded those materials as supplementary corroborations to the clues and traces of ancient secrets, and he just feels that the legends will be more or less mixed with some real and useful information.

I didn't think that those supernatural individuals would really exist, and I didn't think that those materials would one day really be able to play a role similar to that of the Bestiary.

"Apply what you have learned" and "professional counterpart"——

I don't know how many graduation season college students dream of this thing really happened to this commander, but he himself felt that the situation was so bad that it couldn't be worse.

"It is a cruel, vicious supernatural being that is believed to have been transformed by demon-possessed humans who cannibalize themselves in the face of danger...... They eat everything, and they especially love human flesh. ”

The commander explained.

"But there are also theories that they are human beings themselves, and they only become cannibalistic monsters after committing cannibalistic acts...... They are said to be seen in winters when food is scarce, hiding in the woods and randomly preying on passing humans. ”

"......I see," Brewster Murphy felt a little abrupt, and he accepted it almost without resistance.

Because they were walking through the icy wasteland outside, and when they passed through a forest, they suddenly encountered those monsters! They pounced from the depths of the woods and attacked the team in a frenzy!

Thankfully, the desolate and abandoned town was less than two kilometers outside the woods, otherwise they would all have been on their knees.

Immediately afterward, the commander decided to go downstairs to assemble the team, and by the way, to search the desolate town.

Only two Trinity soldiers were left to guard the upper floor, protecting the old man Brewster Murphy.

Although the situation is obviously wrong, no one knows what place this is, and how they and the others came to this ghost place.

But it is precisely because the situation is not right that they subconsciously continue to maintain the original organizational system. Because the hierarchy of the Holy Trinity is extremely strict, as a member of the High Council, Brewster Murphy is naturally the object of key protection.

Of course, when they find out that this is a crazy and desperate nightmarish hellish world, where the Holy Trinity is nothing, or even non-existent, then all of this will be turned upside down.

It's like the end is coming, and order is collapsing...... All the original identities and positions will lose their former meaning.

The commander didn't think of this for the time being, but the cunning Brewster Murphy had already thought of it.

He watched the figure of the commander walking quickly downstairs, and his cloudy eyes looked extremely deep.

The old man didn't know what was going on or what the hell was going on, but he was sure of something.

That is, there is no one in the world who can ignore his power and ignore the organization of the Holy Trinity through understandable ways, means, and techniques, and quietly transfer them to such a ghost place.

In short, he had to prepare for the worst of his situation.

Although Brewster Murphy can boast that he has faced countless winds and waves, in fact, he is actually just like everyone else, just spending more than 70 years of his life in an ordinary way-

Moreover, under the common sense and worldview of normal people, the so-called winds and waves are nothing more than confrontations with opponents who are also human beings, and it is huge wealth and powerful connections as their "power" that collides.

And yet now...... What he encountered was not the failure of previous investments, not the storms and waves that often involved the loss of money in hundreds of millions, but the supernatural phenomena that did exist.

- It's not a big wind and waves, it's a "little trouble" that can directly threaten his life.

How could he be calm, after all, he hadn't encountered this kind of feeling that his life was threatened for many years, it had always been just that he was deciding the fate of countless people, killing and taking away those inferior lives.

Now that it was his turn to suddenly find that his life safety was not guaranteed, he naturally felt a chill and a slight trembling from the bottom of his heart.

How can this be?! How can this be?! Their own huge wealth, their own huge organization...... These things add up to an incomparably powerful force, but they are of no use at all.

This is not a problem that can be solved by investment failure and loss of money, once caught by those things, it will only end up being eaten alive!

So...... He had to figure out the whole thing as soon as possible, and find a solution before these guys found out about the problem.

finally saw the possibility of consciousness transfer, and he absolutely refused to die before the arrival of eternal life...... Wait, consciousness transfer?

I don't know what I thought, the old man was slightly stunned, he remembered that he had encountered something terrible in his study, and he woke up again and came to this ghost place of the cold dead.

- Could that be that possibility?

But the problem is that they have just mastered the clues! The action has not yet begun, so how can it be directly applied?

……

……

The battle on the other side has also come to an end.

"Whew...... Whew......"

The single-tailed girl panted and threw away the pitchfork in her hand, a rudimentary weapon she had picked up at the side of a scarecrow. Looking at the scarecrows scattered on the ground, she looked around again, and then she let out a long exhale.

"Scared me, I thought these things were so powerful, it turned out that a pitchfork could kill ......"

Just when she was complaining like this, relieving the unwillingness that she had just been frightened.

Behind him, there was a sudden chuckle-

"Maybe you've misunderstood something, maybe you're wrong? You've got a pitchfork in your hand, Geralt doesn't have a chance of winning, and these scarecrows are ...... worth."

"What people!"

The woman in the single ponytail was startled, and quickly turned around and shouted at the fog behind her.

A faint shadow appeared in the mist, and then it became clearer, and soon a lonely figure strode through it, it was a man with long black hair draped down to his waist.

At this moment, the young lady with a single ponytail instantly stiffened as if the blood in her whole body had stopped flowing, and an indescribable shiver broke out from the bottom of her heart.

She recognized the man at once.

Or rather, it is absolutely impossible to forget this person...... She can be where she is today, or because of him.

"It turned out to be you, I thought it was a little strange before, and I even thought it was Naia who sneaked to steal the house......"

Mo Chen stood seven or eight meters away from the girl, looked her up and down, and then nodded slightly, with a knowing expression on his face.

"W-What? What do you mean, I don't really understand......" Chai Ying couldn't turn her mind a little, and she didn't know what the other party was talking about.

I recognized each other, but it was supposed to be a dream, right? So why did he meet this person, and why did he appear in his dreams?!

"That means that your sudden appearance here was something I didn't plan...... This area was what I used to isolate my dreams from another world, so I thought something was running over there. ”

Mo Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was a little disappointed.

"I was expecting to see a silly creature, but I didn't expect it to be you...... Also, after all, it's my former strength, and if it has that nature, it makes sense. ”

Chai Ying vaguely understood this time, and then her face became a little strange. So it's not that I'm just dreaming, but that this place is really part of some mysterious phenomenon?

And the moment the other party's gaze swept over, she always felt that she had been completely seen through at once. And the magical power in the body seems to be no longer one's own.

There is no rebellion, but there is a loss of control - he can't control his own power at all now, as if the man in front of him is its real master......

This made her secretly frightened, and her vigilance was suddenly raised to the highest level.

"Alright, now you can go back...... You're lucky to be in the transition zone. ”

Mo Chen seemed to be in a lack of interest, waved his hand, and was ready to send this anchor lady who still had some impressions out of the dream land.

"I'm mainly using these scarecrows here to keep an eye on them, so they're really not too strong, after all, if something can be smuggled in, it's definitely not something these nightmare monsters can deal with......"

As for why the other party was involved, he didn't want to ask, because there was only one possibility. That is, she had also seen the source files and was affected by the seeds of her own nightmares.

And although Mo Chen temporarily banned the "IP" of people who were not planned, this single ponytail girl was an exception.

She really developed and mastered her own spiritual power based on the power that Mo Chen had left behind, and the similar energy nature made her invisibly equivalent to obtaining a VPN service and erecting a ladder.

"Huh? Wait, wait, I have a question...... Please tell me what is going on in the world and what is happening! ”

Chai Ying hurriedly shouted, this is not easy to have a chance, if she can't grasp it, she will regret it!
