Chapter 20: The Scarlet World
Looking at Yu Huanting's small steps of suppressing some excitement and excitement, she gradually walked away,
Jing Chen, who had turned into a shadow and clinged to the roadside wall, turned his gaze back.
To be honest, he doesn't even know the use of recruiting someone for the 'Apocalypse' organization right now.
Help him find the potion materials he needs? Help him do something he doesn't want to do himself?
Or would it be better for Ms. Wan Ting to serve as the chief financial officer of the 'Divine Revelation' organization?
The reason why I agree with this somewhat enthusiastic, or secondary two Yu Huanting joins is still an empty shell of 'divine revelation',
It's just too suitable.
Having been exposed to gluttonous eaters and contaminated, they don't have to think about the mystical and monster memetic nature.
Secondly, he was encountered.
At last...... Weird interesting.
After taking the potion twice, Jing Chen's sense of crisis about the future faded a lot, and the attributes of the Happy People were a little erect again.
The shadow attached to the wall disappears,
Jing Chen melted into the shadows of a wall in front of him, and then continued to jump forward rapidly between the shadows.
……
Yu Huanting, who left, was a little excited and relaxed.
When I was on the way, I was still depressed, and when I got to my place, I went back to the house and closed the door.
He finally couldn't suppress the smile on his face anymore and slammed himself on the sofa.
"Hoo ......"
Spread out on the couch with his hands and feet, first smiling, then sitting up a little and exhaling.
Get started today!
Ordinary life is over!
Yu Huanting, the powerful person of the Apocalypse Organization, is about to appear!
Yu Huanting thought to herself, the characteristics of the 'dreamer' seemed to be at work.
With anticipation and longing in his eyes, of course, there was some nervousness on his face,
For her, it will be an unknown world, and the only thing she knows is the information that came out of the mouth of the great Mr. 'Revelation' just now,
Apocalypse, Gluttony, and what appears to be the name of the official organization, the Apocalypse.
Looking down, I picked up my phone and saw that Mr. 'Revelation' had passed her friend application.
But in the face of Mr. 'Revelation''s account, she hesitated for a while, her fingers raised and fell, and Yu Huanting finally didn't send a message.
Mr. 'Revelation' must still be busy, right? Maybe there's a monster like she just had, and no, the Gluttonous Eaters are waiting for Mr. Revelation to save him.
Thinking like this, she felt a little guilty for thinking that the 'Divine Apocalypse' was a chaotic and evil organization.
'Divine revelation'! It must be a great organization hidden in the darkness, yearning for the light, and maintaining order and ordinariness in the night!
"Divine Revelation ......"
Yu Huanting still had a smile on her face, and then shook her head vigorously,
She was afraid that she would continue to associate with it, and she had already conceived some kind of "divine revelation" slogan and organizational purpose.
Then, Yu Huanting, who stopped, unconsciously remembered what had just happened in her mind,
The horrified and disgusting appearance of the gluttonous eater resurfaced before her eyes,
Then I thought of the vague figure that appeared in her mind just now,
The blood-colored and indistinguishable great figure, the figure seemed to be gradually becoming clear at the moment when she thought like this...... What an indescribably great figure that was.
Then, it seems, there are gluttons, who really reappear in front of their eyes, as if to crawl out of another world.
Again, her eyes were a little glazed.
"Flesh ......"
As soon as the murmuring voice sounded, it was not completely spoken,
Yu Huanting suddenly paused.
She had just remembered the shadow-like 'Apocalypse' in her mind.
Then he suddenly woke up from that strange trance, and broke out in a cold sweat with some fear,
"Whew...... Whew......"
Panting, she got up from the couch in a panic and held her heart until she made sure that there were no gluttonous people around her.
Only then did she reach out and touch the black mask that Mr. 'Revelation' had given her, and she wore on her face,
Feeling the cold touch of the mask, the heart that I was carrying finally fell.
She felt the horror of that unknown world more intuitively, and she couldn't even think about it.
And Mr. 'Revelation' saved her once again.
The other hand touched the place where the piece of flesh fell on the arm,
Thinking of Mr. Apocalypse, who suddenly appeared in her desperate fear,
Mr. Apocalypse is a shadow in the darkness, but a light in her despair.
Mr. Apocalypse saved her, and this time again!
Mr. Apocalypse's figure gradually became clear in her mind.
Her eyes were first revered and grateful, and then gradually turned into fanaticism.
"Yes...... Nothing is greater than Mr. 'Revelation'. ”
Yu Huanting touched the black mask, lowered her head, and muttered feverishly.
Then there was a pause, and the excitement on his face returned.
She has also joined the great 'Divine Revelation'!
I was a little excited to think about it, as if none of the previous things had happened.
……
"Rats...... What does it feel like? ”
"I'm supposed to be comfortable in such a filthy place, but I'm having a hard time right now."
"To be precise, my flesh and blood are very excited, and I am so excited that I want to leave my body and go on a pilgrimage alone, and I am the one who is uncomfortable."
When I set foot on the North Mountain of Wang'an City, it was already night.
The way up the hill began, the surroundings were only a little dim, and the branches and leaves of the trees with teeth and claws were hidden in the night.
But after the old man in military uniform and the mouse walked up the mountain for a while, the surroundings began to change.
It seems that Beishan has become another world, a special region.
At this moment, Lao Chen and the mouse both stopped for a while, looked towards the road to the mountain, and also observed the surroundings.
The way up the mountain, now there are no stone steps and dirt,
It seems that a huge intestine has been cut open, paved on the original road, connecting the mountains up and down.
On both sides of the road, the trees and flowers have also changed.
The tree still retains its appearance, but it is made entirely of flesh and blood.
The trunk of a tree is flesh with fascia attached, like the torso of a human or animal that has been skinned.
There were also a jumble of thick or fine blood vessels, and scarlet blood flowed through them.
The branches and leaves of the tree have also turned into dark red flesh, and the branches have become thin flesh in the shape of leaves.
The fascia of the leaves became tiny blood vessels, and from time to time, dark red blood dripped from the branches of the fleshy leaves.
And under the trees, the grass has also changed,
Some of them grow, with fangs and claws, and the flowers that bloom become mouthparts with sharp teeth.
The ground also changed, as if it were a thick layer of flesh, with viscous blood on it, rotten flesh, and fascia.
Everything in the whole mountain has been replaced by this flesh and blood,
What's even more bizarre is that the whole mountain seems to be a living thing.
The intestines that have turned into stairs are still wriggling, and the ground with sticky blood is the same,
Those flesh trees, flowers and plants are swaying, opening and closing their mouthparts.
There are still some sarcomas growing on the trunks of many fleshy trees, and I don't know if there is vigorous blood bursting out in the sarcoma, and the sarcoma is also agitated from time to time.
On the mountain, there are gusts of wind from time to time, full of foul smell and the smell of flesh and blood.
Looking around, Lao Chen and the mouse lowered their heads one after another, looking at themselves, their expressions were a little solemn.
At this moment, even their own clothes are constantly dripping blood,
The clothes have also been attached to a trace of flesh and blood, not dyed with blood, but also changing towards flesh and blood,
It was a dead thing, but it seemed to be about to be brought to life, and it was slightly wriggling.
"Lao Chen...... Shall we still go up the hill? ”
The rat ripped off the flesh and blood clothes from his body and threw them on the ground next to him, and the flesh and blood clothes that fell to the ground were still wriggling on the ground like the flesh and skin of an animal that had been picked off.
Turning his head, the mouse looked at Lao Chen again, waiting for him to make a decision,
Just halfway up the mountain, it has already had such a serious impact,
It's like a declaration that tells them that the thing on the mountain is not something the two of them can solve at all.
Lao Chen was silent, but he just reached out and took off the coat that had turned into flesh and blood on his body and threw it aside.
Then he raised his head and followed the path up the hill made of this intestine.
At the end of the road, there is no longer that temple, that Qingming Temple.
Instead, there was a fleshy building where only one foot could be seen, the walls were flesh, and the tiles were upturned sarcomas.
For the thing in the Qingming Temple on the mountain, there have long been speculations,
The current scene also proves that it may be the god of the 'glutton'.
And with such a flesh and blood god, how can they deal with it.
Is it just the abilities they have acquired by taking potions?
In this way, is it really useful to be able to influence such a wide range of monsters, or gods?
Indeed, in addition to the omniscient Him, the Anomaly actually has some other extreme measures.
It can even be said that the twelve senior investigators actually have a similar extreme method in their hands.
After they took the potion, they probably all had a god...... In extreme cases, they can also bring the gods behind the potions to descend.
It's just that solving a crisis can bring about a bigger, more serious monster......
Another example,
In fact, the Bureau of Anomalies still has a door, an open door,
Behind the door leads to another world, but the cost of passing through this door is a bit high.
Through one life, one life of the same kind of life is collected.
That is, if you want to pass a person, you need to have a person die...... And this death seems random.
I don't know what kind of world the world on the other side of the door is, it may be a peaceful paradise on earth, or it may be a more terrifying world.
Of course, if it really comes to the extreme...... Such a price is not unacceptable.
Lao Chen raised his head and looked at the flesh and blood buildings on the mountain, his thoughts were a little chaotic.
"Then let's go, go up the mountain and have a look, and see what kind of monster is making such a big move."
In the end, without waiting for Lao Chen to answer, the mouse spoke again.
With a smile on his face, he rubbed his equally dirty face with his dirty hands, and continued with some ease,
"Or Lao Chen, you can go down here, I don't think I'm far from getting out of control. We need intelligence, I'll go up and play the surplus value to see if I can find the weakness of that damn monster. ”
"It's really not good, I'll recruit another monster and watch them dog-eat-dog......"
"There may not be a fight, and there may not be a consensus."
Lao Chen's face was still solemn, he didn't turn his head, looked at the mountain and said again.
"Lao Chen, don't you let me have a little hope?"
The mouse said with a smile still on his face.
Lao Chen turned his head and didn't speak again.
“…… Go up and see until we can't take it anymore. ”
"If not, I'll see if I can let you out."
"Forget it, I'll try my best to let you out."
After pausing in place, the two walked towards the mountain again,
And the farther you go up the mountain, the more terrifying and terrifying the sides of the road up the mountain become.
In the dim night, the dark red flesh trees, flowers and plants are still particularly conspicuous,
There were trees of flesh that seemed to have their veins rooted in the flesh and blood, and they began to squirm slowly on the flesh,
The more blood and water, like falling water, dripped down to the ground from time to time,
Tentacles grew on the ground, and eyes grew on the trunks of flesh trees, and they looked at Lao Chen and the rats walking up the mountain.
Finally, another piece of clothing turned into flesh and blood, and Lao Chen was forced to tear off his last shirt.
Under his clothes, his body was not very strong, but thin and craggy.
What clings to Lao Chen's bones is the rough skin,
But even so, Lao Chen's back was still straight, and his eyes were firm.
"Calm down."
Lao Chen turned his head, looked at the mouse next to him, and ripped off the mouse with the last shirt,
It was full of filth, and there was rotting flesh on his belly and back, in which some of the worms and diseases were burrowing and wriggling.
At this time, the two of them had finally walked to the top of the mountain, in front of this flesh and blood building,
The mouse's eyes were a little red, and his face was a little unnaturally red, and his expression was a little irritable.
Lao Chen opened his mouth to confide in a sentence, which seemed to give special power,
Let the irritated look on the mouse's face fade a little.
"Hoo ......"
"I knew I should have used a word potion too."
The mouse said with a smile.
"Hmmm......"
Lao Chen just whispered a sentence and used words for the mouse, he was a little uncomfortable,
He felt a strong resistance...... Probably the power of flesh and blood.
"Let's go, let's go in, let's meet the monster."
Looking up, he looked at the building, which had no name on the plaque.
The mouse said again, and then pushed open the door of the flesh fascia,
Flesh tentacles were attached to the door, like chains that locked the door.
The rat used his power, and where his hand touched, the fleshy tentacles suddenly turned gray,
It lost its vitality, and then it began to rot and drooped.
This is one of the abilities of rats, disease, or, 'plague'.
The door is open,
The two didn't see what the temple should be.
It was supposed to be the front yard of the temple.
In the middle of the yard, it's like a slaughterhouse,
On the table made of flesh and blood, there are twisted, disgusting flesh monsters.
Next to it, there are probably monsters that look like gluttonous eaters, holding sharp teeth and mouthparts, tearing these flesh monsters,
From time to time, the sharp teeth accidentally scratched the flesh table, and the flesh table couldn't help but shrink, and then squirmed back again.
And next to the appearance of this slaughterhouse, along the flesh ground, there are some monsters,
These monsters are like rhizomes attached to the flesh ground, writhing flesh bodies full of sarcomas on them,
I can't tell what it looks like, some of them only have limbs, and they don't reveal it, and there are huge mouthparts with sharp teeth on their torsos, and they are swallowing dates and eating flesh and blood.
Some are twisted, disgusting lumps of flesh covered with mouthparts, and they burrow directly into the mass of flesh when they are still young, until they eat it.
The pieces of flesh and blood torn from the slaughterhouse-like table in the middle were thrown in front of these monsters, and they were allowed to grasp and eat them.
Many of the flesh and blood thrown on the ground were still wriggling, and sometimes they would open their mouths and eat the monsters in turn.
And after the monster eats the flesh, there is an extra piece on the body visible to the naked eye, and the whole monster is like a disgusting thing piled up at random like this.
From time to time, those gluttonous eaters who slaughtered flesh would grab one from the monster that ate flesh next to them, and throw it on the flesh table to slaughter.
Lao Chen and the rat who pushed open the door of this flesh and blood building saw this terrifying and bloody scene.
The entire building seemed to be filled with the blood gas picked up by blood, turning into a blood-colored world.
Lao Chen and the mouse felt a strong impact at the same time, and there seemed to be some terrifying figure about to emerge in front of them.
There seems to be something coming out under the skin.
"Calm."
"Ignorance."
Lao Chen used the spirit of words again to calm the body and mind of the two, and at the same time blur the terrifying figure that gradually emerged in his mind,
And at this time,
In front of the two of them, the monsters in the front yard had stopped their movements one after another, turned their heads, and the flesh ground was also squirming.
The rat paused, his eyes reddened, and then, the plague power spread.
The last thing he is afraid of is group fighting.
White-gray spread under the feet of the rats, permeating the monsters, and a smell of decay rose around them.
The insects on the rats scurried out and shopped towards the flesh monsters.
Those monsters dyed with gray begin to rot from under their feet,
"Lao Chen, maybe I'm going to be a monster."
The mouse smiled and said.
And these twisted monsters, gluttonous eaters, even as their bodies began to rot, walked towards the two of them.
The blood in the two of them began to be affected a little, and the muscles trembled slightly.
Tentacles grew on the flesh ground, and they climbed up towards the feet of the two of them.
"Be careful."
Lao Chen just said something out loud, and then started to shoot as well.
