Chapter 527: Pollution and Retreat
Frankly, Lucrecia's mind was blank for a moment—one—blank for nearly two or three seconds before she regained her ability to think and realized what was going on in front of her.
Even more terrible is the nightmare of being polluted by the children of the sun, and in the depths of this nightmare, he suddenly sees his father returning from subspace, and even more terrible is that the scythe in his hand is slashing at his father's neck.
Now, the scythe has lost control, the faint green fire is burning on its pitch-black blade and handle, it seems to have entered another dimension and can no longer be mastered by itself, Lucrecia stiff and futile to hold the scythe, holding the scythe for a long time before a sentence comes out: "You······ The scythe in your hand is so chic]
[Do you do this every time you are nervous? Duncan finally let go of his hand, and the dark green flames dissipated.
[What's going on here?] 】
As the flames subsided, Lucrecia finally felt that the scythe condensed by the power of dreams and curses was back in her hands, and she hurriedly grabbed it and took a half step back, ready to answer her father's question, but the next second, a sense of crisis suddenly came from close by.
The [inferior bodies] of those sun heirs finally reacted, and they obviously wouldn't give themselves a chance to talk about their daily affairs in peace, with the light and shadow that kept flickering and jumping in the sunlight, several shadows swooped down behind Lucrecia, barely had a chance to think, Lucrecia had already turned abruptly, and the sickle in her hand immediately turned into a whip wrapped around thorns, but at the moment when she was about to throw the whip out, the shadows that swooped over suddenly stopped in mid-air and appeared, as if they had lost their source of power— They all fell to the ground and struggled violently.
At the same time, Heidi, who was barely supporting several personality clones, suddenly felt a light pressure on her side.
She transferred her self from a dying personification to another in a good state, and then watched in amazement as the black-clad figures around her fell one by one, like a fish being roasted by the fierce, dying on the ground.
Their black coats of unknown material swelled and squirmed in the depths, and the horrible limbs began to decay and decompose rapidly, accompanied by a disgusting sound, a terrible stench of pus and blood gradually spreading from under their bodies.
Even as a trained psychiatrist, Heidi couldn't help but take two steps back when faced with this scene, and then as if she sensed something, she subconsciously looked up at the sky - but the moment she looked up, she forcibly controlled her impulse.
The horrific experience of seeing the [Sun Heir] when she looked up was still deeply imprinted in her mind, and she did not dare to verify her guesses.
At that moment, she heard the stranger who suddenly appeared in front of Lucrecia say to herself, "It's okay, the sky is safe. 】
For some reason, there seemed to be some kind of powerful power in this sentence, and although there was no reason, Heidi's mind suddenly appeared-
A strong impression: the sky is safe.
She slowly raised her head to look at the glowing sun that was high in the sky.
The [thing] still floated silently above the forest, countless twisted tentacles and pale eyes piling up like a haphazard mass of flesh, and the light was like a flame, rising and burning on the surface of the horrible [flesh] --- yet in the depths of the light flame, a faint green spread, and quickly spread across the surface of the entity.
The moment she saw the twisted tentacles and her pale eyes, Heidi felt an irrepressible sense of fear, but soon she realized that her mind had not been eroded by this witness.
The pollution of the [Son of the Sun] seems to be blocked by the spreading green fire, or rather... Corrupted by the latter, assimilated, and thus harmless.
The dying struggles and roars of the [inferior bodies] tormented Lucrecia's eardrums, and the black-clad human-like creatures were dying rapidly in the alienated sunlight, as if dissolving in strong acid, and she looked at the curtain in confusion, and turned to Duncan: "What's going on? 】
[I polluted their temporary sun, and now, this sunlight is 'poisonous' to them.] This is what I learned during the Black Sun Event in Purland, and these 'residues' can only survive under certain sunlight. 】
Duncan said with a calm expression, then looked up at the twisted being that was still floating silently above the forest.
He thought of the [Black Sun] he had seen through the [Golden Mask] before, and thought of the pale ancient god who was dying under the burning of the Superior Crown, but compared to the [Black Sun] he had seen at the beginning, the thing hanging above this dream world at this moment was obviously more than one size smaller, and its strength was much weaker.
So····· It seems that this is what those crazy cultists call the [Son of the Sun].
Now, the child of the sun is rapidly being consumed by the polluted flames, and its own light and heat are being transformed into something powerful enough to incinerate itself, yet this strange and terrifying creature has no painful reaction, it still hangs quietly and silently in the sky, as if there is no emotion of pain or fear at all.
Pure glow is like a real sun.
Yet Duncan looked into its pale eyes, and it always felt that this thing actually had a mind—it was thinking, it was observing, it had a purpose, it was sanity, it was not like the dying black sun who only wanted to extinguish itself, nor like the crazy cultists who only wanted to destroy the whole world.
This creature... What the hell are you thinking at the moment?
What are you thinking? Duncan couldn't help but ask in his mind.
[Can I go back?] In the depths of the vague lake message from the ghost flames, he heard a voice that sounded calm and gentle, "There's nothing I'm looking for here. 】
Duncan's eyes widened slightly.
However, in the next moment, just as he wanted to establish more communication with the [Sun Heir], an illusory roar suddenly came from the sky, and then the burning flame suddenly shrank into a small dot as if it had collapsed inward, and the ghostly flame that had lost its purpose exploded into all directions.
The false sun that overlooked the forest was gone.
A dim, reddish dim light replaced the [sunny] sky of the previous moment, and the whole forest was plunged into a dusk-like atmosphere.
Lucrecia's surprised voice came from the side: "You destroyed it? 】
Duncan shook his head slightly, and said the information he had sensed in the moment, "It was gone, it was not its essence, but just a projection of the sun heir in the dream, like a tentacle used by the Tao for perception, and now it withdrew the tentacle from the dream. 】
Lucretia nodded thoughtfully, but soon she suddenly noticed something else: "Wait, what about the Annihilation Cultist just now? 】
[He ran away," Duncan said casually, "When those 'inferior beings' died, he continued to reduce his sense of existence, and then took advantage of the chaos to flee when the false sun in the sky collapsed and faded. 】
When Lucrecia heard this, she immediately frowned, and subconsciously looked around the forest that had fallen into a dim sky like dusk: [Damn... I was distracted too...... There should be a curse left on him... 】
[It's okay,] Duncan just waved his hand, "Let him run first—yes." 】
Hearing this, Lucrecia raised her head and looked at Duncan: "You····· Deliberately let him go? 】
Duncan didn't answer her directly, but narrowed his eyes slightly, as if sensing something, and then shook his head with a smile
He's seen me anyway.
Then he didn't pay attention to Lucrecia's instantaneous change in expression, but turned to look at Heidi, who was standing more than ten meters away with anxiety, trying to reduce his presence.
He came up to the psychiatrist—strictly speaking—in front of the large herd of Heidi—and first confirmed—the other's state.
There were about seven or eight Heidi with injuries of various sizes, three of them were extremely badly injured, and were falling to the ground fluttering like a dying fish, and the part of their personality had apparently been withdrawn, leaving only some reflex-based dying convulsions, and two Heidi who seemed to be in good shape, one of them standing in place with a dull expression, and the other nervously avoiding Duncan's gaze.
Duncan swept the [-large group of Heidi] in front of him expressionlessly, and sighed in his heart that the way of the psychiatrist in this world is Mano, and the schizophrenia is even more schizophrenic than schizophrenia, and then he went straight past the [Heidi] who was full of nervousness and evasive eyes, and came to the psychiatrist lady who was with a dull expression.
[Are you alright?] 】
The [Personification Avatar] with a dull expression was suddenly startled, and a vivid expression suddenly appeared on his face: [How do you know. Of course, she had now guessed who the tall and majestic person in front of her was, and she was already nervous in her heart, and she wanted to use her personification to cover it up a little and avoid communicating with this terrible subspace shadow, but she didn't expect that it wouldn't even pass for a second.
"You will use your personality clone to protect yourself when you are nervous," Duncan said with a smile and a friendly attitude, "Of course, I didn't expect your 'personality clone' to be like this····· Awesome、Now I'm impressed。 】
[Sometimes·· Patients with schizophrenia will be more difficult to deal with, and they can't beat ...... if they have fewer points] Heidi subconsciously explained, but then reacted, "Wait, where do you know······ 】
Duncan smiled and raised his finger to the amethyst pendant on Heidi's chest [Strictly speaking, this pendant is the ..... I gave you]
