Chapter 3 The Gift of the Funeral Rite of the Dead Butterfly
The long branches of the willow tree are blown by the breeze, accompanied by the gurgling water, Jiang Hai stands here, and on the opposite side of it are blooming colorful flowers, bright flowers surround a majestic coffin, and the real dead butterfly funeral rite is sitting on it.
On the arm on the chest of the dead butterfly funeral ritual, there was a huge white butterfly, Jiang Hai's arrival did not scare the white butterfly away, the dead butterfly funeral ceremony put down this arm and looked at Jiang Hai.
It is said that they are looking at each other, but in fact, neither has eyes.
The two butterflies looked at each other, and Jiang Hai spoke.
"Are you, the real funeral rite of the dead butterfly?"
"Yes."
Jiang Hai looked at his body that was exactly the same as the other party.
"And who am I?"
"You and I are both anomalies, and at this moment, you have become me, and you are also a dead butterfly funeral."
Jiang Hai was silent.
At this time, the funeral rite of the dead butterfly said in a gentle voice.
"Kid, you answered my question, and in return, I will answer your question. I can see, child, you are confused, you are hesitating, what are you wandering about? ”
"I ...... I've always thought I was human, but I'm actually an anomaly. I don't want to hurt humans, but they keep hurting me...... What should I do? ”
"In their eyes, you are an anomaly, a dangerous being. Although you consider yourself human, no one will accept what you say, no one will agree with your words. ”
"I understand, that'...... What exactly should I do? ”
"It's simple, kill them like any other anomaly."
Seeing that Jiang Hai was stunned, the dead butterfly funeral ceremony continued.
"I think you know the truth here, too: there's no real death in this place. Death loses its original meaning here, and for them, like us, death is only a temporary sleep. The difference is that they will sleep a little longer, but we will not get a moment of rest. Every time we die, we can clearly remember what happened before we died, but they don't have the slightest memory. ”
"Death, in this place, is not the end, nor the beginning, but only the most insignificant process in this endless cycle."
"I came here to redeem sentient beings. Now he is trapped here like everyone else, wandering in despair with empty faith. I deliver coffins to people who have nowhere to go, and use death to beg for a moment of rest. ”
"In this place, eternal sleep is the true liberation."
"Child, maybe you were once a human, but since then, you will continue to live as an anomaly."
"You will grow stronger and stronger until you are strong enough to break the cycle and give a resting place to all people, including the Anomalous."
"Just do it. To resist, to plunder, to hurt, to do what the anomaly should do, to break the cycle. ”
As he spoke, the real dead butterfly funeral ritual stretched out the hand on his chest and let go of the white butterfly.
The white butterfly slowly flew to Jiang Hai's chest, turned into a butterfly-shaped brooch, and pinned it to its chest.
"This is my gift to you, go back, child."
"Do what the anomaly should do."
After the real funeral of the dead butterfly was finished, everything disappeared, as if nothing had ever appeared.
Jiang Hai returned to the containment room of the dead butterfly funeral, everything that happened just now seemed to be a fantasy, but the pin on its chest told him that it was not a fantasy.
The words of the dead butterfly funeral woke up Jiang Hai.
The prompt of the system sounded, pulling Jiang Hai's thoughts back to reality.

When it learns the truth and is no longer confused by the questions it has been agonizing with for a long time, a new path appears before it. 】
No new staff walked into the containment chamber of the dead butterfly funeral, and at this moment, there was a familiar feeling again, and a familiar mechanical sound sounded. Jiang Hai understood that the day should be over.
[The number of deaths today, 16 times, casualties, 0, the cumulative number of casualties, 0, please keep up the good work. 】
[Get a reward, 0 lob points.] 】
[Is the end of the day?] 】
Be.
Jiang Hai chose to end the day, and then, its consciousness broke away from the funeral rite of the dead butterfly and came to a dark and deep space.
Here, there is no light in the sky, there are many tombstones, and the terrible sound of the wind seems to have a dead soul whistling by, which is very eerie and terrifying.
But I don't know why, Jiang Hai feels that there is a warm feeling here.
It was like coming back home.
Here, Jiang Hai thought of the last words of the dead butterfly funeral, "To resist, to plunder, to hurt, to do what the fantasy should do."
Finally, Jiang Hai recognized himself.
"I'm not human."
"I'm an anomaly."
At that moment, Jiang Hai felt extremely happy, and its consciousness seemed to fall into a deep sleep here. I don't know how long it took, Jiang Hai only felt that he had rested enough, and at this time, its consciousness was pulled back to the brain lobe company.
The familiar mechanical sound sounded again.
[Is it to start a new day?] 】
Be.

——
Jiang Hai checked his situation and confirmed that he had incarnated as a dead butterfly funeral rite again.
It has now adapted to the anomalous body, and is accustomed to using five arms. Jiang Hai tried to stretch out his hand, learning the appearance of the dead butterfly funeral, and made a pistol shooting pose.
"Ding~"
A large white butterfly flew out of his fingertips, accompanied by a small black butterfly.
They weren't slow in the first place, but they even tended to fly faster and faster until they hit a wall and vanished.
Jiang Hai looked at the brooch on its chest, thinking of the effects that the system had told it before.
For Diego, this is an epic level of reinforcement. Let its strength go from HE level to the strength that can compete with the WAW level.
Let the shameful butterfly become a real killer butterfly.
Jiang Hai thought of the words of the dead butterfly funeral ceremony again, and thought of the twisted rules of this ghost place.
It does what the anomaly should do.
At this moment, the door of the funeral shelter for the dead butterfly opened, and it was an employee of a wrist-slither dressed T-class garment. He is going to oppress Jiang Hai to improve his righteous attributes.
Jiang Hai made up his mind and viciously gave three middle fingers to the employee.
As it prepared to attack the other party, the system's voice sounded without warning.
