Chapter 11: Night and the Backrooms and Entities
After a long night's sleep, Jiang Wan's sleepiness gradually faded, and when she opened her eyes, Bi Fang's figure was in front of her.
She touched the gun on her waist, and it was still there.
"Strange...... I remember that I pressed the gun before going to bed......" She was silent for a while, but Chen Qing beside her slept soundly, if someone had come, they would have died a long time ago.
She shook her head and woke up Chen Qing beside her.
"Huh? What's wrong? ”
"It's time to get up......"
He lay flat and stretched his limbs, and under the influence of the sleepiness that he had just woken up, he asked Jiang Wan, "...... What's next? ”
"Take a look at the fourth gate...... And then research the way to leave? ”
She lowered her head and cleared herself.
"Oh...... Oh, yes. ”
After the drowsiness in their minds faded, the two made their way to the fourth gate.
After they returned to the door, Jiang Wan patted her arm: "Are you sure, you really can't pick this lock." If you are sure that it really doesn't work...... I shot. ”
He frowned, seeming to hesitate.
But when he walked to the door, he found that the lock on the door had been closed.
The mechanism part has been dismantled, and the electronic lock cylinder part has been de-energized.
He frowned, and seemed extremely uneasy in his heart.
He tugged at the door, and sure enough, it opened.
Behind that door, the scene was very different from behind Jiang Wan and the others.
Entering the door is a long and narrow passage, which is designed with shadowless lights, and is about 1.5 meters wide on the left and right.
And at every twenty meters of distance, a corner will appear.
The two looked at each other and began to walk all the way inside.
They walked for a long time, about a while, and after half an hour there was a door at the end of the passage with a window on the right side of the door.
The two fumbled their way to the back of the door, and as they approached, the sound behind the door gradually poured into their ears.
They listened to the roar in their ears, and the uneasiness in their hearts gradually amplified as the voice increased.
They walked sideways to the window and saw a hellish scene behind it.
The black-robed men, who had hundreds of memoraries, gathered around an altar, their heads bowed and their eyes closed.
They crossed their fingers and placed their fists on their chests.
Jiang Wan and the others crossed the cover of the crowd and saw everything that was being done on the altar.
"Pray."
The man under the altar whispered.
"The evil spirit endures, but the life is ...... continued"
With their voices, the victims who saw last night may be more.
They were tied to the edge of the altar, pulling one person at a time to the center.
They all shouted excitedly as they looked at the women who were pulled up this time.
They roared, but Jiang Wan suddenly noticed that the body of the partner beside her was trembling.
"What's wrong with you?"
"I didn't ...... I do not know. ”
He didn't reply, but the men under the altar raised their hands frantically, and they tore off their knuckles to get noticed just to throw them higher.
On the altar, next to the victim, a manager in a crimson cloak seemed to be cherry-picking something.
He waited for a moment, pointing his fingertips at the craziest man in the crowd.
He tore off eighty percent of the skin on his arm, grabbed it and shook it.
He lunged to the altar and knelt down affectionately, kissing the foot of the man in red.
He lifted his cloak and let the tip of his nose make intimate contact with the other.
"Yes...... Fuck the medical bureau examiner?! ”
Jiang Wan's face turned pale, and she turned her head to look at the people under the altar.
"They ......"
Before she could finish speaking, the action on the altar began.
The red-robed man grabbed the knife and turned to the woman tied to the altar.
Immediately afterwards, the chosen one followed, lying on all fours, and closed his eyes.
She ...... I remember her body...... Because ALS has shrunk ......"
Jiang Wan raised the gun, and her face changed drastically.
"Hey! If I rush in, will you be able to protect yourself! ”
He: "Ah! , but seemed a little hesitant: "But you...... You rush in like this...... I'll be besieged by the cultists below. ”
Chen Qing looked at everything in front of him, but his eyes didn't know what he was thinking.
He just thought that this group of people was crazy, but it was as if everything was changing as usual.
Human beings are like this, for their own sake, driven by interests, who cares about the life or death of another kind.
In an instant, the red-clothed man on the altar swung his sword, and the sword flashed, and the woman's head was cut off, and the gushing blood stained his red robe.
Maybe that's why the red robe is because he chose red.
He took two more steps, looked at the chosen one in front of him, and chanted loudly: "The living! Live with perseverance!
Enjoy singing all night long! Enjoy the offering of 10,000 flesh and blood!
The living...... The living enjoy the pain and suffering that belong only to the living.
Medals and rewards come with pain - live, and you should live forever like the dead. ”
He whispered, slashing off her arm, the remaining limbs, the head, and the spine with a slash.
He touched the white and flawless brain and walked step by step in front of the victim.
He let go of the brain, let go of the spine, and then the limbs grew.
The head grew out, followed by the face, she had a face, and the look of Huaichun was terrifying.
She whined, her right hand snatching the knife from the red-clad man's hand.
The scene was silent for a moment, and then she cut off the little thumb of her left hand.
"Pain! It is our greatest honor! ”
She roared, and Jiang Wan outside the door was sweating profusely.
She never dreamed that a disappearance case would involve so much inside information.
Can they live on other people's lives?
Her face was pale, and she didn't even dare to think that there were still a few people in the procuratorate who were innocent.
"You say...... Can we also work with this organization? ”
Her expression changed drastically and she turned her head to look at the man beside her.
"Why...... Suddenly looking at me like this, I'm kidding...... Just kidding. ”
He muttered, but the look in his eyes was not a joke.
He was thinking, and she was thinking, when suddenly, the ritual inside the door stopped.
The two of them looked up, and saw the man in red with his own face, pressed against the window.
He licked the glass, and the believers around him did the same.
"This ...... Institutions...... Bund ......"
Her face turned white, and the clothes inside their robes were still the same uniform.
They don't want to hide it at all.
She turned pale and pointed her gun at the person in front of her.
She looked at the other party and threatened with a cold face: "You stop now!" Surrender willingly! You can wait for the judge to pronounce the sentence! Or I! ”
But before she could finish her sentence, the door next to her opened.
She turned her head to see that a blow had hit her neck.
She struggled slightly, and saw everything out of the corner of her eye.
"How...... Probably ......"
What she saw before she fell unconscious was the face of Chen Qing.
He smiled and hit Jiang Wan on the neck with the steel pipe in his hand.
"Oh? You're ......."
Inside the window, the man in red looked plain.
"Me! I have witnessed your miracles! Let me...... Let me join you! Let me join!! ”
He roared, resting his left hand against the glass, his eyes changing, and the steel pipe in his right hand began to smash down against the hand.
Know that bright red is coated all over the glass, until the meat puree mixed with bone residue from the wrist spinning top.
The man across the window smiled.
"It's kind of interesting...... What is your name? ”
He hesitated, and the pain made his brow unsoothe: "My name is ...... My name is Chen Qing. ”
……
In the depths of this door, unlike the hustle and bustle at the altar, there is another door, and the world inside the door seems unusually quiet.
They are different from the madness of those members, and they look and act more like ordinary workers.
In this room, there are three large red tables and chairs placed in it.
On the tables and chairs, there are about dozens of yellowed documents.
In front of those documents were these researchers.
"Have you studied what these terms represent?"
In front of the first table, a young man with a scar on his face asked, "According to the contents of this record, you only need to mention these nouns to the shrine to get the corresponding noun in return."
But the Backrooms are supposed to be incomprehensible, so why is this name possible in other Backrooms? ”
The other old man shook his head, his expression was already a little indifferent: "Maybe the syllables of this word represent some kind of entity."
We make a wish to the shrine to gain the power of this entity, and the shrine strengthens the special features of this entity to the person who wishes. ”
"Entities?"
"Yes, in fact, we used to think that each of these three names represented a kind of entity.
However, after experimentation, it was discovered that a very small number of people were able to survive for a short period of time while praying the names of both entities.
Maybe...... These three terms mean something else. ”
Scarface touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
The note in front of him reads: "Recite the sounds of 'Maza', 'Grien' and 'Fima', pray to the shrine, and offer the bones of thousands of people, it will help you make your dreams come true." ”
On the second note, apparently, is the staff member's record.
"The first test was completed in the year 1 (smear) and the prayer was fulfilled in the name of Maza, and the following is the oral content of the subject.
'With thousands of dry bones, with rotting flesh and blood, and with the bones of thousands of men, I pray that Mazawi may add to my body. ’
Subject survived for thirteen days after the test was completed, and exhibited a strong sense of the Backrooms. ”
Time: (smear)
Location: (Smear) Hospital
Subjects: 136 people.
Results: 13 people survived.
Test Summary: After the conditions and requirements for the shrine were clarified, the number of surviving subjects increased.
Summarize two keywords that can be used: "Grien" and "Fima"
Prayer phrase changed to: (smeared)
(Smear)
Grien can greatly increase the speed of the invoker's physical recovery, and no negative effects have been observed so far.
Fima greatly increases the speed of the Invoker.
(Fima appears to resemble the barking of some humanoid canine in the Backrooms)"
He looked at the papers in his hand, and the commotion of the outside world seemed to be approaching the inner door.
The old man frowned, but he didn't seem to be able to say anything.
Scarface stared at the door and sighed slightly.
"What's wrong?"
The old man turned his head, but when he got up, his eyes were full of ghosting.
"Not really. I'll go out and have a look. ”
He watched as the man stood straight in the room, and he watched as the co-workers around him collapsed one by one.
The old man suddenly realized.
"You ......"
He gritted his teeth, but the heaviness of his body had become too heavy to support it any longer.
The man gathered the papers in his hand and hid the bottom of the paper in his pocket.
He pushed open the door and walked towards the altar.
He pushes people away, ignoring the crazy ones.
He walked over to the altar.
