Chapter 506: Confused Faith
The moment he saw the mission, Marty knew it was useless to stop him.
This also put an end to his thoughts of delaying until dawn, and he couldn't hide from what he should have come, and his originally restless heart gradually calmed down.
"What are you reading?"
He asked.
Dinah flipped back to the front and read aloud: "Anna Pershings Birckner's diary of 1903." ”
When she finished, she lowered her head and continued reading.
"Mom screamed almost every night, and I prayed that she would find faith, but she stopped when Dad cut open her belly and filled her with coal."
As her reading sounded, the strange aura around her gradually dissipated, and Marty could still feel the malice before, and it also receded, and everyone else seemed to be completely awake, and put down the things they were holding in their hands without hesitation, and gathered around Dina.
"Judas dreamed of telling me that Matthew took him to the little dark room, and I knew that he was killed, and I also wanted to feel the glory of Matthew's pain, but cutting flesh would make him ****, and I wouldn't be so excited."
"Oh my God!" Julie was dumbfounded, "Don't read it." ”
"No, go on."
Marty walked up to Dinah and looked at the diary, the enemy had appeared, and wanted to know the specific situation of the other party, which was the most direct information.
In addition to him, Horton and Kurt couldn't help but hold their breath and listen quietly.
"I have found a way to save my family in ancient books, the arm of my good cause has been cut off, I hope you will understand what I write, and there will be believers who will read it to honor our souls, and we will be reborn and bring back the endless pain of the world. ”
Reading this, she paused and said, "Here's a Latin passage." ”
Seeing that no one stopped her, she continued to read: "Pain comes from the body, pain is higher than the body, pain burns the soul......"
"Ding~!"
Marty's mind suddenly sounded a task prompt, and he summoned the interface to take a look, and found that he had received another mission, and this task was still a special task that had to be completed.
[Before dawn, kill all the cursed and painful believers here, origin point 600,000.] 】
it!
When he saw the reward of the mission, Marty was stunned and completely froze in place.
"System, what's going on?"
Instead of being surprised, he felt panicked, such a high reward, the danger to face, you can imagine how terrifying it is.
The reason why Xu Jing issued this quest to Marty was not only for the origin point and to complete task 2, but when the last sacrificial text was read, he sensed a faint gossamer power emanating from Dinah's body and heading underground.
His spirit was released, tracking the wisp of faith that could drift away at any moment, entering the underground base, and only stopping when it was deep beyond the scanning range.
Although I couldn't catch the last tail, the whereabouts of this power of faith are already obvious, and it is definitely inseparable from the ancient gods who rest underground.
What happened next also verified Xu Jing's previous guess about the source of the energy source of the divine power barrier that enveloped this place.
As the wisp of faith power disappeared, a strong wave of divine power suddenly erupted somewhere in the underground base.
And the place where this divine power explodes is the place where all monsters are imprisoned.
These monsters are all imprisoned in a boxy transparent elevator space, and all the elevators form a huge super cube.
Each elevator that makes up this cube is moving in disorder all the time.
When the divine power erupted, a layer of light network appeared on the surface of each elevator, which was exactly the same as the divine power barrier that shrouded the mountain outside, and from the perspective of the outward extension, it was obviously connected with the divine power barrier.
Not only that, but the monsters in each elevator seem to have become sustainable batteries.
Anger, sorrow, fear, pain, death, torment, madness......
All kinds of negative emotions pervade every elevator.
"No wonder it's an evil god."
Xu Jing sensed all kinds of negative emotions, and couldn't help but feel sympathy for the Titan who was sealed underground.
It's like drinking to quench your thirst, these chaotic and crazy beliefs keep the other person from decaying, but they also interfere with the other person's thinking and have to stay in a state of rest.
And these emotions generated by the monsters have also gained great power through the gods of faith, so they will intensify their efforts, continuously outputting a large amount of faith power, integrating into the light network, and then transforming into divine power.
Part of this transformed divine power supplies the operation of the entire optical network system, and the other part goes deep underground and is absorbed by the ancient gods.
After Xu Jing discovered this, he immediately understood the intention of the system to release Task 2, even if there was no benefit, he would first know all the monsters here, cut off the source of belief in the underground gods, destroy the divine power barrier covering the mountain, and weaken the strength of the other party.
In the face of Marty's inquiry, he thought about it and said: "The system has just detected and decoded that the hut where the host is located and the surrounding forest are a place of sacrifice, and the purpose of the five hosts being brought here is to be killed in a specific order by the monsters of your own choice in pain and fear, forming some kind of special sacrifice ritual." ”
"Bastard!" Marty's whole person exploded instantly, and his eyes were red, "We are sacrifices?" ”
Xu Jing ignored Marty's anger and continued: "Every ornament in this cellar represents a kind of monster, and they want you to make your own choice and choose how to die. ”
When Dina recited the ritual and caused an explosion of divine power, the monsters who were locked in the elevator all became restless and crazy.
They knew what that meant, but eventually only one elevator began to rise and head straight towards the ground.
The people who are imprisoned in this elevator are the Burkner family who have turned into zombies.
Xu Jing was also a little surprised, this super cube composed of elevators underground, combined with the divine power barrier, formed a complete sacrificial system, which simply represented the perfect combination of technology and divine power use.
Monsters that come to the ground will receive information that they want to kill the target, know how to complete the tasks in the established order, and then return to the elevator and be rewarded under the constraints of divine power.
Marty heard Xu Jing's explanation and finally understood the truth.
However, he noticed that his main quest to explore the truth had not yet been completed, and couldn't help asking: "System, why haven't I completed my main quest yet, and besides, if I leave here with my friends now, and ignore the special task that must be completed just now, what will be the consequences?" ”
"The truth that the host knows is analyzed by the system through detection, and whether this is the case or not has to be explored by itself."
Xu Jing was not in a hurry,
"In addition, the system has just detected that the area where the host is located has been blocked by a special energy, and the blockade can only be lifted by killing all the monsters represented by the ornaments in this cellar, otherwise it will be impossible to leave this place."
"Made!" Marty cursed secretly, immediately closed the interface, and yelled at Dinah, who was still reading the sacrifice: "Don't read it, let's stop here, let's get out of here!" ”
"Marty, what are you nervous about?"
Everyone was listening to the strange sacrifice text, and they were suddenly interrupted and woke up, and they were all a little dissatisfied.
"We're in big trouble......"
Marty tries to organize the linguistic interpretation.
But someone else interrupted him:
"Don't act like a child, okay?"
"Marty, you're cranky again, don't get into conspiracy theories about everything."
"yes, it's just a diary, it's not really meaningful."
