Chapter 16 Life Talks

"We stand here, our feet clinging to the earth, but the universe may be very close to us, perhaps not far overhead?"

This is a text engraved on the back of the eye-shaped badge that Lin Tianxiang took off his chest after defeating the mad priest.

After all, this priest is just an ordinary clergyman of the church, even if his combat power is beyond the scope of ordinary people, but in the face of three world-class powerhouses, he can only be killed in seconds.

The moment he fell, a dense slug crawled out of his clothes.

Lin Tianxiang was fine, but the two girls felt very uncomfortable physiologically when they saw this disgusting mollusk, and forcibly pulled Lin Tianxiang out of the laboratory.

However, there are bottles and cans of countless eyeballs in the laboratory, and there is nothing to explore.

"The eye represents the real universe...... Does the Forbidden Witch want to broaden her horizons and strengthen her connection with the universe through experimentation...... Is that guy trying to get in touch with the Old Gods? Lin Tianxiang's speculation was undoubtedly correct, but everyone couldn't understand what the Forbidden Witch was doing this.

Could it be ...... Is it to send the reborn Old Gods (the Old Gods they investigated) back to the universe?

So what benefits does she get?

“…… Let's go back quickly. Carroll frowned and urged, "This is the most disgusting place I've ever seen." ”

However, even after leaving the sanatorium and going outside, what everyone sees is a hell on earth.

The town was littered with flesh and corpses, carriages were flipped on the streets, and several orc-like residents were frantically eating the carcasses of horses.

"Let's go to the mayor first." The three of them lowered their bodies and swooped towards the mayor's house.

Along the way, they also saw the bodies of many tourists tied to wooden stakes and burned, and the stench of the corpses spread throughout the town.

And the hunters, carefully selected for the night of the hunt, carry torches and blunt weapons, and patrol the streets. Only this time, the object of their hunt was a living human.

"It seems that we have been in the dream for too long, and the real time has passed for at least a week......

"And during this time, not to mention all the residents of Yorktown, at least most of the people, especially the hunters, began to gradually become beasts and began to slaughter normal people."

This is the real night of the hunt. It's not at the same level as what I've seen before. If the previous hunting night rating was 16 forbidden, this time it is a proper 18 forbidden.

"It's a real hunting town." Carol gasped, for the first time she had experienced the horror of the Forbidden Witch. "She must be stopped, or London will ...... No, the whole of England is in the same fate as Yorktown! ”

"Calm down, Carol." Lin Tianxiang pressed the girl's shoulder, "She has recreated the metamorphosis of the Black Death in the Middle Ages, and we have no chance of winning now, not to mention that she may still have a connection with the ancient gods." ”

Ever since the butcher was dealt with, this guy has been running around like a headless fly, completely lacking the usual calmness and calmness.

As a detective, as an obsession that has lived to this day, he became confused with the death of the butcher. This kind of thing Lin Tianxiang is not incomprehensible. Florence may not be wrong in her thoughts, and if Carol is given a little time and space, maybe she will be able to come out of it herself.

However, now is not the time to think about life at all, as she said, not only Yorktown, but the whole of Britain and even the world will be in a state of disaster. Their strength has been greatly weakened, and Carol is also an indispensable and important combat force. If Carol can't overcome his demons now, they have no chance of winning this battle.

"But I ......"

"You give me enough time."

Carol's shirt was tugged at by the smoke and rain.

Seeing this scene, Lin Tianxiang didn't step forward to stop him, but just swallowed back what he wanted to say.

"Don't act like a child, Carol." Yanyurou dragged Carol in front of her, and their faces were almost together. "Confused just because of this little thing? The self-proclaimed "Righteous Partner" is nothing more than that. ”

This sentence undoubtedly stepped on Carol's tail, and he put his hands in his coat pockets, and did not break free, "Heh, don't compare me to you." What do you know? ”

"All I know is that elementary school students understand one thing, if one goal is achieved, then it's better to replace the next one." Yanyurou let go of Carol, and there was no trace of emotion in her cold eyes, "I don't care what kind of past you have, and I don't care what you think. But now that you are useless, you will only get in the way of the master, and it is too late to leave. ”

Finding the murderer and avenging her parents is Carol's purpose as a detective, and it is the truth that she will spend her life searching. However, when the truth was revealed and the murderer was solved in person, Carol only felt an inexplicable emptiness and distractions in his heart.

Change your goals and continue to struggle...... That's true, but it's too hard for her to do. This is not the same as elementary school students who study hard to get their favorite toys and finally get their wish.

What she gave was her childhood and youth.

She has been trying to find the truth, but in the end, she didn't expect the truth to be just a ridiculous accident.

Carol began to wonder if what she had given was meaningful.

"Does it make sense, won't you know later?"

Lin Tianxiang's cold words brought Carol back to his senses. She withdrew her gaze from the sparks that were about to spark with Yanyurou and looked at the smiling boy.

"Life is still long, there are still so many things to enjoy, better and better games, more and more interesting anime...... These are all things we should look forward to, should you give up more beautiful things just because of the confusion in your heart?

"If you still feel like you've lost your purpose, let me guide you on the way forward." Lin Tianxiang unconsciously planted another flag on Carol.

Although he knew that the meaning expressed by Lin Tianxiang was different from that meaning, Carol was a girl after all, and when the boy said this, his face immediately turned red.

"You, you, do you know what you're talking about?"

"I knew exactly what I was talking about." Lin Tianxiang nodded seriously, "Of course, the premise is that we can get out alive." So, before I fulfill my promise to you, at least solve the problem at hand. ”

"Then why are you still stunned? It's still far from the mayor's place. ”

Carol instantly returned to his former appearance, and sped up his speed as if he were bloody, suddenly exceeding the two of them by several positions.

"Oh, woman."

Yan Yurou looked at Carol's back and sneered.
