The moment Duncan said the words "Ignorance is bliss", the woman in the black dress had already reacted!

But this time, instead of trying any futile combat behavior, she grabbed the chains at the feet of the Dead Bird with one hand, and with a wave of the other behind her, she summoned a hazy black mist in the air, and then turned and ran in the direction of the entrance to the cemetery!

She couldn't care about her companion who had been taken over her body, nor the other two accomplices who were dealing with the caretaker, the strange things that happened tonight were beyond her comprehension, even as an annihilation cultist who had signed a contract with a ghostly demon to live in symbiosis, she was on the verge of the boundaries of sanity and courage.

Get out of here, the farther away the better, the sooner the better! Don't stay in the sight of the invisible and indescribable intruder, and don't continue to live with the terrible shadow!

Duncan frowned, he hadn't fully adapted to the body he had just occupied, and although he could clearly feel that this body was in better health than the one in the coffin just now, he still had a hard time keeping up with the other party's escape.

However, he still stepped forward to chase after him, casually slicing away the strange black mist summoned by the other party when he fled, and while adjusting to this new body, he fell on the other party's embarrassed back.

And as he watched, the gas street lamps that passed by the woman who fled in embarrassment suddenly began to flicker, and the originally bright and stable light flame was suddenly stained with a touch of dark green.

The street lamps polluted by usurping fire were like invisible footsteps, and the figures of the fleeing cultists who followed all the way quickly spread in the direction of the entrance of the cemetery, and sprinkled green sparks along the way, closer and closer, more and more!

But just as the green flames scattered in the street lamps on both sides were about to catch up with the cultist, the strange strange bird made of pitch-black bone fragments suddenly screamed and flew up, the strange bird's skeleton wings splashed a large cloud of smoke in the night sky, and its sharp cry seemed to tear a small area of time and space, Duncan only saw that a large crack seemed to suddenly appear in the darkness beside the cultist, and then those vague and distorted cracks merged into a huge black hole-

The bone bird screamed in frenzy and horror, desperately rushing towards the dark hole that appeared out of thin air, the chains extending from its feet stretched straight in an instant, and the woman in the black dress was also dragged towards the hole with the screeching sound of Kerala.

"Damn! Stop it! You bastard! You brute! The cultist struggled desperately, letting out a shout that had changed his tone, his voice overflowing with uncontrollable horror and despair, "No, no, no! Other! Don't take me to the secluded ...... Help, help! No! No—"

With a final scream, the cultist was dragged by the chains and fell into the dark hollow, the mouth of which snapped shut and disappeared into a shaky shadow.

The green glow from the street lamps on both sides illuminated the empty cemetery path.

"This is a very unique escape route," Duncan looked at the sudden scene with some dismay, and the corners of his mouth twitched for a while, and then he seemed to suddenly remember something, "Did Shirley and Dog run away like this in the first place...... But I remember that she was not afraid at all, huh? ”

He frowned, looked in the direction in which the cultist had disappeared, and after thinking for a moment, he found nothing, so he could only withdraw his gaze.

The green-dyed streetlights on both sides quickly returned to normal as he withdrew his gaze, and the intertwined shadows of light and shadow gradually returned to his feet like tentacles retracted in the darkness.

A slight crackling sound reached Duncan's ears at this moment.

He looked suspiciously in the direction where the sound came from, only to find that it was actually from his own body—a thin crackling sound kept coming from all over his body, and in the cracks of his clothes, he could see fine black smoke seeping and rising.

Duncan was a little stunned for a moment, not knowing what kind of accident this was, and then he suddenly pulled open the clothes near his chest, and finally saw the changes that were taking place in his body:

Little by little, his flesh was turning into some kind of black, charred-like substance, and the surface of his shrunken skin was already filled with gaps, and black smoke and ash seemed to rise from the gaps.

If he hadn't received the baptism of "opening his heart" from the beginning, this weird and terrifying scene in front of him would definitely have a huge impact on Duncan, but now that he was used to these weird and evil things, he was extremely calm at the moment, and even reached out and touched his neck.

The change seems to have started at the throat - the place where it once lived in symbiosis with the ghostly demons, connected to the chains.

Duncan immediately thought of the jellyfish-like demon that had set himself on fire out of thin air.

After taking possession of this body, it was as if the "jellyfish" had struck hard because it couldn't bear the pressure, and now the cultist's body began to collapse from the place where the chains coexisted...... Could it be that as soon as the symbiotic demon dies, the body will collapse with it?

Is this a characteristic of annihilation?

Duncan thought for a moment of the greatest possibility, and even thought of Shirley and Dog - could the relationship between those two "people" be similar?

When you go back, you can ask Shirley about it.

But first think about what you need to do now.

Duncan looked at the rapidly disintegrating body with some helplessness, and at the same time, he couldn't help but think of the shell he had occupied when he came out of the coffin.

Although the cause of the disintegration was different, the shell also seemed to have a flesh collapse at the end.

“…… Why is it so difficult to find a working shell," he couldn't help but sigh, lamenting his bad luck, "It's so much smoother than here when I was in Plant." ”

He raised his head and looked at the iron fence at the end of his vision—the entrance to the cemetery in front of him, and through the entrance seemed to be a large deserted and empty road, and then through that open space was the bustling city with bright lights.

The frosty civilized world is close at hand, but this body that is constantly crumbling may not be able to support it to complete this journey, and even if he runs to the city now, his honor of walking with smoke and scum may not be able to get any information smoothly, and it is certain that he will attract the guardians of the night patrol at the first time.

He glanced back at the cemetery.

There are quite a few lying on the morgue side - but firstly, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be another poor quality, and secondly, it is quite difficult to unpack.

This is a real blind box, and he has been tossing long enough tonight.

After a brief weighing, Duncan looked up at the lights coming from the other side of the trail.

That should be in the direction of the caretaker's hut.

Duncan remembered that two other cultists, disguised as the Grim Reaper, had gone to the hut with the Warden, who had come across as stubborn and unapproachable, but who was at least a loyal man.

Cultists are not good people.

He strode toward the light at the end of the path.

……

There seemed to be some movement outside.

In the warm caretaker's hut, the kettle on the stove hissed, the gas lamp on the side brought a bright glow to the room, and the old warden slowly fiddled with the bottles and cans on the wooden shelves, and his trusty double-barreled shotgun hung from the iron hooks next to the shelves.

Two men dressed in black watched the old man's movements from the hut, one of them standing at the doorway and the other by the window.

But their attention was clearly not all on the caretaker.

They were watching the direction of the entrance to the cemetery, waiting for a signal.

But they didn't wait for the code of "it's done, evacuate", but only heard some vague and strange voices faintly coming from the direction of the trail.

The faint scream that rang out at the end was particularly disturbing.

"Did you hear anything?"

The old warden stopped suddenly, looked up at the window, which had been dirty and dull by age, and listened intently to the movement outside the window—there seemed to be only the whirring sound of hollow wind in the night.

"No sound," said the tall, muscly man standing in the doorway, and as soon as he heard the keeper's words, although he was also a little uneasy, it was a better priority for the keeper to stay in the house honestly, "maybe it's just a crow." ”

"Oh, crows," muttered the old keeper, "crows are very annoying things, they steal their food, and then stand proudly on the branches of trees and laugh loudly...... I hate thieves and uninvited bad guests, and crows take both. ”

The two men in black glanced at each other with some confusion, as if they felt that what the stubborn old man in front of them suddenly said was a little inexplicable.

The old warden didn't seem to care about the reaction of the two men, but said to himself, "By the way, do you know why I followed the lady's advice and brought you two to my hut again?" ”

The shorter man in black seemed to be faintly wary, staring into the eyes of the old guard: "Why? ”

The old warden finally found what he was looking for in the pile of jars and jars, and as he unscrewed the lid and poured some crushed herbs into the furnace, he said casually, "Because as a rule, two people are easier to deal with than four." ”
