Chapter 346: Hunter
fire wave,
Wind
Rainstorm.
The power of the elements is magically evolving in the alleys.
However, all the scenes and energy fluctuations are isolated by the formation, and even if someone wants to enter the alley, they will be blocked by the illusion at the mouth of the alley, creating an illusion that they seem to have entered, but in fact they are wandering back at the entrance.
The blood was washed away in the blink of an eye, and the few remaining impurities that could not be incinerated poured into the street outside with a gust of breeze.
Turned into drifting dust.
At last.
The elements returned to heaven and earth, so that the total amount of elements in this area did not decrease by a single point, nor did it increase by a single point.
The filth accumulated in the alley was also cleaned along with the purification, revealing yellowed walls, which inevitably aroused the suspicion of future investigators.
But what Cheng Shen has to do is just to clean up the traces of his own shots, so that they have no way to analyze.
As for the act of killing several people himself, it has become a fact.
Being weird.
This kind of thing,
Even if he could cover it up, it wouldn't change the Redemption House's opinion of him.
"It's time to go home."
Cheng Shen said.
He picked up a package full of fresh entrails, which had a triple illusion camouflage applied to it, as well as a formation that served as a freshness and freezer.
The moment he left the alley, an indistinct figure walked out behind him.
Like his shadow, he crept into the darkness.
Twilight is getting thicker.
The blood-colored sun hanging in the sky had been dyed inky black, like an abyss. The flickering light around it was like the tentacles of an ineffable being, spreading outward, bringing out a large area of darkness.
The darkness was eroding the sky.
"Why didn't you die outside when you came back so late!"
As soon as Cheng Shen returned home, he received a warm greeting from Marge.
He glanced at it, and Coyne was still sitting motionless at the table like a statue, the steak in front of him already cold. But as night gradually fell, there seemed to be a wave of fluctuation in its body awakening.
The aura that emanated made Cheng Shen feel uneasy.
Jingle ......
Cheng Shen took out a money bag in his arms, and the clanging sound of metal colliding immediately attracted Marge from the greasy kitchen.
"Salary upfront."
Cheng Shen said succinctly.
"They paid you a paycheck before you work?!" Marg's eyes lit up, she walked over quickly, snatched the money bag and poured the coins on the table, the yellow copper coins rolling and colliding on the table.
"One, two, three......"
There are not many copper coins.
There are only ten.
But Marge's eyes when she looked at Cheng Shen changed significantly.
"Are you sure it wasn't stolen or picked up?"
She asked.
Cheng Shen just shook his head and didn't refute, Marge's face suddenly brightened after a gloomy moment, she stretched out her dry palm and stroked half of Cheng Shen's still intact cheek, "My little Carl has finally grown up!" ”
Her sudden gentleness made Cheng Shen uncomfortable like a knife hidden in her smile.
But he still tries to cater to the performance.
In this family, Marge may be the weakest one, but she is the one who can pose the greatest direct threat to him, and her every move, a sudden thought, can determine her life and death.
Pleasing her is the key to surviving in this family.
Fortunately, although she is moody, Cheng Shen has already grasped her weakness.
Margo is not greedy.
This can be seen in Cheng Shen's spiritual world.
She likes money, but it is out of some obsession, and this obsession may have something to do with the way she is now. Cheng Shen didn't find the reason in Carl's memory, but he just needed to meet her needs.
It is very profitable for him to exchange money for short-term security.
Cheng Shen just looted a total of three silver and twenty-seven bronze from those four people.
It is enough to maintain the illusion of filial piety of mother and son for a period of time.
And that magic dagger.
Although he doesn't like it.
However, a rare-level magic weapon can still fetch a good price.
The man also mentioned that it was an heirloom from the family of his brother-in-law, a viscount.
This shows how scarce magical items are among ordinary people......
"From today onwards, your food standards can be raised to the same level as your father, but only if you get your money back every week!"
Margo brought out a plate of roast meat in the kitchen.
The steak is grilled and burnt.
Sizzling oil.
Cheng Shen didn't waste time thinking about what kind of creature this was.
All he knew was that Margo would be angry if he didn't eat, and that his broken body needed to eat to keep it alive.
Serving Coyne a plate of freshly grilled steaks, Margo mixed the cooled steaks into a pile of minced meat and re-entered her sister's room with the plates.
Cheng Shen glanced up and concentrated on eliminating the food.
It was going to be dark soon.
Daddy is waking up too.
Carl's memory reminds him to get back to his room before his dad wakes up.
If not, something terrible will happen.
Carl seemed to have forgotten once before, and Cheng Shen didn't recall what happened, and his memories were all broken.
Smack!
A crisp sound suddenly came from my sister's room.
Cheng Shen's heart tightened.
Followed by.
He heard Marge's incessant cursing sounds, probably the same as she usually did to scold him. Marge's hysterical voice was like a crazy woman, and Cheng Shen could probably imagine her image at the moment.
Pointing at a weird nose and cursing ......?
Cheng Shen shook his head slightly.
The anger that Marge had endured from him did not disappear, but was transferred to her sister.
I remember that she rarely made such a big deal about her sister before.
…… It's none of his business anyway.
Go back to your room as soon as you finish eating.
Shut the door.
Marg's scolding could still be seen through the crack in the door.
Cheng Shen sat down at his desk, took out a few unfinished puppets from his bag and began to fiddle with them, as usual, while his spiritual perception silently enveloped the entire building and then continued to spread to the surrounding area.
Winter!
The ancient sound of the bell suddenly echoed in the city.
Night shines on the windowsill.
The thick darkness gradually filled the room like ink like a solid ink, and Cheng Shen did not light the lamp, allowing the darkness to cover his body.
Immediately.
Everything in front of him became hazy.
It was like a heavy curtain on his body, and it became a little difficult to breathe. In the darkness, there seemed to be countless small hands constantly touching his body, and his perception was also limited and retracted to a range of 100 meters.
"It's the old will that once looked at me......"
Cheng Shen remembered instantly.
He had been watched by a terrifying consciousness when he received a mission to the Old City, and that's what it felt like back then.
He looked up at the window.
On the pitch-black sky, a huge demonic blood-colored eye opened at this moment, and the blood light flowed in the corner of its eye, like a falling sword, and its childlike benevolence was pitch black and narrow, like an abyss that could devour all things.
“…… There's something in the darkness that draws me in. ”
Cheng Shen's heart moved.
He had an inexplicable urge to enter the depths of the darkness, as if something was calling to him.
"Wacky ......"
Cheng Shen suppressed his thoughts.
Then.
He suddenly felt a cold, terrifying aura coming from behind the door. Tables and chairs moved, and the sound of heavy footsteps rang out. The tall figure sitting at the dining table finally woke up, and its breath was like that of a flood beast.
Bang Chang ......
Bang Chang ......
It walked around the room, the clanging of metal under its wide trench coat.
Marg, who had always been irritable, was silent at this time.
She returned to her room, closed the door tightly, and Cheng Shen's perception covered the past, and found that Marge was sitting on the edge of the bed with a gloomy face at the moment, holding scissors in her hand, and her bloodshot eyes were staring at the door in front of her.
"She's scared of her father?"
Cheng Shen thought.
No
More than fear.
Marg hated Coyne more than Carl and his sister.
If her hatred were divided into ten parts, he and his sister might take one share together, and the rest of the hatred would be directed at Coyne.
Cheng Shen's perception wandered in the room without touching the awakened monster, monitoring everything, he only saw that Coyin slowly walked to Marge's door and reached out to turn the door lock.
Kada......
The door was locked inside.
It turned a few times, gave up without opening, and in fact it was not difficult to remove the door with his strength.
But it didn't.
After standing and thinking for a moment, Coyne turned his head and walked to his sister's room, which was not far away, and reached for the same way to try to twist the lock.
Kada......
The door to her sister's room was also locked by Marge.
"Next ......"
Cheng Shen pinched a sweat in his heart, and according to the monster's movements, it was likely to come to his room to try to open the door next.
It was then that he suddenly thought of something.
His room is unlocked!
Perhaps Marg removed the lock on her room in order to make it easier to spy on Carl's movements! The memory that Carl passed on to Cheng Shen was very broken and messy, and at this time, he suddenly jumped out and stabbed him in the back!
"Gan!"
Cheng Shen silently lip-profused in the dark.
He got up immediately, and Coyne was already shuffling towards his room with heavy steps, the sound of clear footsteps like a dying note. The invisible coldness seemed to have penetrated through the door, soaking him like a freezer.
"What did Carl do before?!"
Cheng Shen recalled at high speed in his mind.
Wardrobe!
He captured a key piece of information in that shattered memory, Cheng Shen immediately turned his head and ran to the wardrobe, the moment he opened the wardrobe, a miserable white face suddenly came into his eyes, which shocked Cheng Shen's tiger body!
Tibetan words almost blurted out.
was forcibly suffocated by him.
Cheng Shen looked at the puppet heads painted with facial features hanging in the closet, and scolded his mother in his heart. This Carl really wasn't a normal person before, who doesn't put clothes in the closet, and puts so many doll heads?
I thought to myself.
Cheng Shen didn't dare to procrastinate, so he hurriedly got into the closet.
Gurgle......
The moment he gently closed the closet door, the door twisted open.
Call......
The foul-smelling wind poured into the room with a chill, and the terrifying figure standing in the darkness stood in front of the door for a moment, as if observing, before the footsteps began to approach.
Cheng Shen hurriedly gathered his perception.
Hold your breath.
Several hidden spells were applied to him one after another, and even the sound of his heartbeat was muffled.
While nervous, he continued to dig through Carl's shattered memories in search of useful clues.
Then.
Suddenly, he felt something touch his head.
said that it was a touch, but in fact, when Cheng Shen's convergence perception was fed back by the natural reaction of his body, a puppet head hanging in the wardrobe had already opened its mouth and bit his face.
Cold arms stretched out behind him and at his feet like the body of a snake, grabbing him and immobilizing him in place.
In the dark.
Faces that were so white that they made people panic drifted towards him.
Fuck Carl, what a horrible bunch of things you have in the cupboard!
Cheng Shen scolded angrily.
He turned his head sideways, dodging the puppet's bite, but more puppet heads were still approaching him.
If you don't resist.
He'll be killed by these puppets before Coyne finds out!
Bang!
The sound of heavy footsteps had already entered the house, and Cheng Shen could feel the fishy smell emitted by the hideous murder weapon under its windbreaker.
Puppets?
Friend?
He quickly remembered something.
These dolls were given to him by old Jonny, and according to him, these puppets could become Carl's friends and protect him when he was in danger. And Carl had relied on them to survive the night.
But it takes a lot of help to get them......
Feeding?
Oops.
Cheng Shen remembered that important condition. It is to feed them some other parts of the puppet limbs before nightfall. The pile of discarded puppet bodies in his room is what Carl is going to use for this!
But he didn't remember it at all.
This is not to blame Cheng Shen.
Because Carl's memory itself is broken and cannot actively merge with him, when Cheng Shen checks his memory, it is like using a search website. You have to run into a problem before you can search for answers.
He didn't expect this stubble at night, so he naturally didn't know how to deal with it.
But at this time, Cheng Shen thought about it quickly, and immediately thought of a way to crack it.
Don't these golems need to be fed with puppet limbs?
He's all over his body!
Card.
With a soft sound, his entire arm fell off, and the demon puppets surrounding him immediately chased after that arm and devoured it in a big mouth, one arm was not enough, and Cheng Shen offered another arm and a thigh.
"Eat, eat, eat! It's all for you! ”
Formation cover-up.
The sound in the closet didn't come out at all.
Cheng Shen was ruthless in his heart, as long as he fed the remaining leg to them, the closed cabinet door was suddenly pulled.
Bang dang!
A head flew up and bit the cabinet door, not allowing the door to be pulled open.
But the figure outside the door did not turn around and leave as before, but increased his strength.
"You're going to help, too!"
Cheng Shen glared.
I don't know if it was his urging that worked or if the demon puppets had already eaten, the fluttering heads suddenly pounced on the cabinet door and bit the door tightly.
And the force that pulled the door grew stronger and stronger, and finally, the whole cabinet was shaking.
Bang dang!
The cabinet was finally dragged down and smashed to the ground, and Cheng Shen in the cabinet was suddenly smashed.
He immediately heard the sound of Coyne pulling a sharp weapon from his waist.
"It's still a failure......"
Sigh secretly.
The amount of food he fed to the golems was much worse than usual, leaving them with insufficient strength to compete with Corne.
Outcome.
He's still going to be exposed.
Cheng Shen abandoned the idea of frustration, condensed all his soul power, and was about to take the first shot, catching it off guard.
Suddenly.
Angry scolding was heard outside the room.
"You useless shit! I will only stay at home and get angry with the children! You're going to kill the damn shreds! If you could have killed them, how would we be where we are today! ”
"Rubbish!"
"You're a dog they domestiated!"
