The underground cult dwelling at Salem Cemetery.

Luke looks through the mirror and casts his gaze on the alienated crow.

Dreaded Raven (Evil God Infected)

Transcendent crows, transformed by fearful emotions with special techniques, are infected by Cthulhu and transformed into new life forms.

[Hoarse Cry]

【Fog of Fear】

[Alienated Flesh]: Cthulhu infection distorts the crow's body and greatly increases the strength of the body.

Fuck you! Luke cursed secretly, this crow betrayed me, and ran away with the money, using my fear to help the enemy.

He clearly sensed that part of his original fear had disappeared directly, and he had not returned directly like the crow had died before.

In other words, there are only 29 crows he can control (excluding Halpiere).

The aberrant raven let out a mournful cry that affected its old companions, and its tentacles shot outward and swept towards the other crows.

Let's dig the foot of the wall! It's tolerable, it's unbearable!

Luke's mental power mobilized extraordinary energy, and a blazing laser shot out from the mirror in an instant, landing right in the middle of the crow's chest, and blasting it to pieces with a single blow. Fearing that its corpse would be contaminated with other things, he summoned a fierce flame over it until the blood was dried and the flesh and bones were burned to ashes.

He glanced at the idol with jealousy, and withdrew all the crows, leaving only a few mirrors, and then several basketball-sized fireballs flew out of the mirrors and landed directly on the strange idol of Cthulhu.

"Boom" "Boom" "Boom"

The flames from the violent explosion completely engulfed it, and by the time the flames had cleared, the idol had been torn apart, losing its original eerie charm, and Luke had no feedback from his ability to observe, and it seemed to have been destroyed.

When all the crows had flown out, Luke kindly closed the empty coffin with his mental strength, shoveled up the dirt, and restored it to its original state.

Looking at the picture of the poor man on the tombstone, Luke sighed, "Although I don't know who you are, I have killed everything that stole your body, I hope you will rest in peace." ”

He used his spiritual power to pluck two wild flowers from the side, put them in front of the tombstone, and turned to leave.

It was seven o'clock in the evening, and Luke was a little hungry, so he went straight to a random restaurant in the Miarko district to eat.

Halfway out of the hotel and towards the parking lot, Luke was a little confused.

Ay? Where's my car?

How individual cars are parked in parking spaces.

Also a Ford, license plate number. Same with me.

Oh, it's my car, it's just a lot newer.

Did a magic elf wash my car?

As soon as I walked to the car, a few dirty children walked out.

There was a slightly older one, who looked to be eight or nine years old, and stood at the front and said inwardly, "Your car is very dirty, we will clean it for you, you have to pay me." ”

Looking at this wandering child who came out when he was still in elementary school, as well as a few younger little radishes behind him, Luke felt some sympathy in his heart.

Although he does not have the great ideal of sheltering the poor people in the world, it is still no problem to help the suffering people around him, and although these little radish heads are young, their skills are not bad, and their cars are new and bright.

Luke took out a few hundred-dollar bills directly from his pocket, thought about it, took out a little change, handed them all to the leading child, and asked, "Are you all together?" Why did you come out to wander at such a young age, your parents? ”

The child took the money and said a little indifferently: "We are all children that our parents don't want, my father ran away when I was born, and my mother took me to the age of seven, and I got along with other men, without informing me, and left directly." ”

"The two of them, like me." He pointed to the two younger children behind him, "That one is worse than me, his mother died when he was five years old." ”

"These two, they ran away from home yesterday, just with me," he nodded and looked at the end of the line, a man and a woman, and two children holding hands tightly, "Their father came home from drinking and beat them, and he couldn't stand the beating, so he ran out." ”

Luke listened to it with a burst of anger and asked, "What about their mother?" What about the Children's Protection Society? ”

"Mom?" The child sneered, speaking in the tone of an adult, "She would rather watch two boring soap operas than look at her own child." ”

"As for the Children's Protection Society, where do you think this is? In the poorest and most chaotic part of Phoenix, no association would have set its sights on it. ”

Xiao Douding, who was at the end of the line, pulled his brother to the front and said seriously: "That is, when my father beat me, my mother was eating on the side, and she didn't look at me, my brother stopped him, and then the two of us were beaten together, and my brother took me out." Fortunately, Andrew's brother took us in and took us to work, and we shared what we had to eat. ”

Looking at Xiao Douding, who explained seriously, Luke touched her head with a smile, took out another banknote, stuffed it into her hand, and said, "I know, your brother and Andrew's brother are good people." ”

He has the heart to help these children, but there is only so much he can do.

It's not that the ability is limited, but it seems that the only way to help them is to give them some money, and other ways to completely help them out of the predicament are too cumbersome and troublesome.

Luke was ashamed to find that his moral standard seemed to be very average, although his heart was now full of sympathy, but if he really wanted to be responsible to the end and take care of these little beans, the troublesome resistance quickly overwhelmed the cheap sympathy.

Under the condemnation of his sense of morality and the selfish resistance of his nature, he suddenly didn't want to talk to these children, took out a note from his pocket, and was about to hand it to Andrew, when he suddenly leaned in through the car window as if he remembered something, found a pen, and wrote his phone number on it, "If you are bullied by gang members, or if there is anything else that cannot be solved, maybe you can call me." ”

After saying that, he handed the note to Andrew, and without waiting for him to ask anything, he drove away as if he were leaving.

Jeanne looked at the car that was moving away and said, "He's such a weirdo." ”

Andrew looked at the note with the phone number in his hand seriously, put it in his arms, and nodded, "But he's also a good person." ”

After speaking, he turned around and said to the five or six small beans behind him: "Today is developed!" We eat fried chicken! ”

"Yay!"

In front of the fried chicken, a strange stranger is not so important, the children don't care about thinking, only feel happy, this time Luke gave them money, add up to enough for them to save money and live on a month.

The night is darker, and the children who have eaten the fried chicken first come to the edge of the Tvina district, there are too many poor people in the Miarko district, and there are too many gang members, the children are basically difficult to get oil and water, and they may be robbed by the gangsters at the bottom, only by going to a place like the Tevina district where there are many rich people, can you often meet a good Samaritan like Luke.

They then began to act separately. Some went to the dessert shop to ask the salesman for the bread to throw away, some went to the late-night restaurant to continue wiping the car, and Jeanne and her brother Hervé went to the dumpster to pick up bottles together.

Not long after they walked on the road, Joseph, who was returning home from work, passed by and saw them.

In Phoenix in late September, the weather is already a little cool, especially at night, even adults need to add a coat. But the two children were still wearing short summer T-shirts, and they looked dirty, as if they hadn't been washed for half a month.

If it was in the past, he would probably only take a general glance and leave directly, but it seems that since he started to lose his hair and shaved his hair directly, he seems to have put himself in the shoes of the psychological feelings of the people he laughed at in the past. After being almost killed by "gluttony", unexpectedly, his personality underwent a 180-degree transformation, and he felt like he was atoning for his past actions, changing from a grumpy red neck to a gentle bald head.

Seeing the two children, he pulled over to the side of the road, got out of the car and asked, "Where are your parents?" Why wander the streets late at night?"

Seeing this man in police uniform, Elvé was a little frightened, and took his sister's hand tightly, staring at him without saying a word.

Joseph crouched down and asked for a long time, but Hervé was afraid that he would send him home, and he still refused to give out the information about his parents and his home address.

Looking at the brother and sister who were shivering in the autumn breeze, Joseph sighed and said, "You two brothers and sisters are too young, it is really dangerous to wander on the street like this, even a wild dog may threaten your life, since you don't want to go home, how about I send you to a children's welfare home?" ”

Seeing that the two of them were still looking at him timidly and vigilantly, he smiled as kindly as he could and touched Jeanne's head.

Jeanne trembled nervously, feeling the kindness of the bald uncle in front of her, and did not immediately shrink back behind her brother.

Joseph continued: "The conditions in the children's welfare home are very good, you and your sister at least have a place to sleep, have something to eat, and don't have to be bullied by the big kids on the street. ”

When Herway heard his words, he looked back at his sister, who was only five years old, and stared at Joseph's eyes seriously, looking at his kind appearance, learning from the expression of his drunkard father, and making a bad appearance, and said, "If you lie to me, I won't make you feel good!" ”

Looking at this little boy who tried to show his "fierceness" and tried to protect himself and his sister, Joseph assured him with a serious face: "I promise, what I said is true, you just have to go and see and find out the truth." ”

The vigilance on Elvé's face gradually dissipated, and Jeanne's eyes brightened, there was something to eat and a place to live, for them, it was already heaven, if what the bald uncle in front of him said was true, maybe they could call Brother Andrew and them over.

Joseph opened the door, Elvé pulled Jeanne into the car, and soon arrived at a children's welfare home called "Divine Grace".

This welfare home has a good reputation in the Tvina district, it seems to have a lot of kind financial support behind it, unlike other welfare homes, which think too much about breaking even, set some thresholds for accepting children, and even like some for-profit welfare homes, only accept well-behaved, sensible and beautiful children, sell to rich people who have money and lack offspring, and collect adoption fees to obtain a lot of wealth.

As long as it is a child, it can get the most basic living guarantee here, even if there is no one who has not adopted a child, it will not be sent away until the age of 16.

Sure enough, after Joseph came to the door with the two children to explain the situation, the management of the welfare home happily agreed to accept the two children, without even asking where they came from.

According to the practice of the orphanage, boys and girls should sleep separately, but Hervé refused to be separated from his sister, and so was Jeanne, who had to be with her brother no matter what, even if she wanted to leave the orphanage. After persuading them for a long time, the staff finally made an exception and arranged a small windowless room for the two of them to live in.

Seeing that the brother and sister had settled down, Joseph left with peace of mind.

The next day, the weekend.

Luke rebuffed Maria's invitation to play the game, drove a brand new Ford Fiesta to the Tvina District Police Station, and asked her to accompany him to rummage through the files of the cult case from a long time ago, and indeed found two more related cases in the middle of nowhere.

One was when the husband reported that his wife was a cult believer and sacrificed his two-year-old child to the so-called gods, and then brought home only a fist-sized skull, and he killed his wife in anger, and then called the police and turned himself in.

In another case, passers-by called the police and found several young corpses in the sewer that had been eaten into white bones, and after investigation, the age of those white bones was generally between 10 and 12 years old, and the bones were full of traces of being eaten by rodents.

After investigation, it was found that both cases were committed by the Cthulhu sect, which had a deep influence in Phoenix, and wantonly attacked children and sacrificed evil gods, which was also one of the reasons for the official determination to exterminate them at that time.

Amisha and Luke each had a dossier and looked at it carefully, and she suddenly asked, "I see that you have been following the clues of this evil god sect, have they regained and started their activities?" ”

Luke reminded: "I have some clues in other places, this cult's stronghold is very likely to be in the Tvina district, if you find any suspicious people, you must be careful, do not touch the unknown god statue indiscriminately, encounter a deformed body, especially a guy with strange tentacles, do not hesitate, empty the magazine as soon as possible, and then run away." ”

After speaking, he was still a little uneasy, took out a charm he was carrying, and handed it to Amisha: "This is given to me by someone else before, plus the BYD Deni shield, which can be taken out when attacked, and has a certain resistance to most of the extraordinary means, and can be automatically launched when encountering mortal danger." ”

He had this shield charm for a long time, but it had never been of much use, and with the recent enhancement of his fire ability, it was enough to protect himself from a lava shield, so he simply gave it to Amisha.

Amisha looked at the charm and asked, "Do you have any other defenses?" ”

Luke nodded, "Of course." ”

Amisha took it unceremoniously.

The gift of friends is a matter of life and death, and with their relationship, there is no need to hypocritically push and concede a few times.
