Chapter 248: Starry Sky Descending
"Finally...... Did you get it? ”
Xiao Yi had been waiting for this news, and if he could solve the hallucination, at least it would make him a little less painful.
"Hmm." The nurse nodded, and continued, "That's what Dr. Carl said, he's waiting for you in the clinic right now. ”
"Okay." Xiao Yi didn't bother to ask anything, and he didn't care about the nurse, so he immediately rushed out the door and went to Carl's location.
……
“…… Ah, you're ...... One of the survivors of that accident, right? ”
However, just as Xiao Yi was on his way to the clinic, a stranger stopped Xiao Yi.
He stood straight in front of Xiao Yi, stared at Xiao Yi, and nodded thoughtfully.
"Sure enough! You're a survivor of that accident! Not long ago, I noticed you when you were confronting the High Pastor, and I thought it couldn't be such a coincidence, but I didn't expect it to be you. ”
“…… Survivor? Xiao Yi frowned, a little impatient to bypass him, "You recognize the wrong person, I don't remember what accidents I encountered......"
"No, I'm not mistaken." However, the other party followed up again, "That accident was a big deal, after all...... No one expected that the Supposedly unsinkable Gladys would sink like this, which is really shocking to the world, but this town is too backward for few people to pay attention to...... But I didn't expect that one of the survivors of that accident would be in this town! ”
“…… Glay, Teasy? ”
That name undoubtedly caught Xiao Yi's attention.
He retracted his steps to leave, and asked the man:
"You...... What does that Gladys mean? ”
"What else could it mean?" The man asked suspiciously, "You can't be unclear, right?" ”
"Talk less nonsense to me!" Xiao Yi's expression froze, and he said sharply: "What do you mean by Gladys!" Say it! ”
"Uh......" The man also seemed to be frightened by Xiao Yi, and explained with some grievances: "In the past, there was a ship named Gletis, which was claimed to be unsinkable, but when it went to sea, it seemed to be attacked by something deep under the sea, and it sank, and hundreds of people on board died. In addition, the sinking was accompanied by a huge storm, and it was impossible to say that there was no chance of survival...... However, in the past week, several survivors of the Gletis have been spotted at sea! This is an almost impossible miracle, but it has been published in newspapers everywhere for several times! ”
“…… What, that's it. Xiao Yi was immediately disappointed, "That's it." ”
"But!" The man said with an excited face: "You must be one of the survivors of that accident, I will definitely not admit my mistake!" After all, the newspaper has a picture of you! ”
From this point of view, this person should be a lover who pays attention to this matter, but whether he is a survivor or not, Xiao Yi doesn't care now, he has more important things to solve.
Xiao also planned to ignore this person and prepare to leave directly...... However, at this moment, one of his questions made Xiao Yi stunned.
"So, can I interview you?" The man asked excitedly, "What you said at that time was the nameless and formless unknown god who saved you survivors!" Is it real? ”
“…… Huh? Xiao was also stunned.
This kind of description, Xiao Yi is too familiar!
Nameless and invisible unknown gods! It's the god that Laetitia believes in! And...... Xiao also suspected that it was the evil god that was now plagued by this town!
According to this man, he may have been in contact with the so-called unknown god for a long time...... Such a wonderful connection makes it difficult for Xiao not to care.
"What do you mean?" Therefore, Xiao also hurriedly asked.
"You...... Amnesia? The man asked in hindsight: "It's no wonder that I don't know anything about the situation at that time, but when I encounter that kind of thing, it's okay to be stressed, and it's okay to lose my memory." ”
“…… Amnesia? Xiao Yi also remembered that he was missing a hallucinated memory.
Could it be ...... Is your hallucination also caused by the unknown god?
"Less nonsense!" Therefore, Xiao Yi asked more and more impatiently: "What was the situation at that time!" Hurry up! ”
"Yes!" The man hurriedly said, "According to the contents of the newspaper, those survivors at that time claimed to have met an incomprehensible god beyond ordinary people's knowledge, who seemed to come from the depths of the starry sky, and accepted its gift and survived...... However, those who survived, all suffered from strange hallucinations, were tormented, and either died or disappeared from view entirely......"
"Sure enough...... Is the source of the hallucination coming from here? ”
Xiao also felt that the part of his memory that was missing had become clear.
He remembered that Carl had told him some secret before, did that have something to do with it?
"Anything else? Tell me! For example, does that god have any beliefs or religions associated with it? Immediately after, Xiao Yi asked the man again.
However, the man shook his head, "I don't know, everything I know is in the newspapers, and I don't know more details...... As for the god you are talking about, it is only a record related to those survivors, at most it is just a talking point, how can there be a related faith? ”
“……”
So, where did Laetitia learn about the existence of that god? How did she know? Who told her? And even faith?
Was it just a coincidence? Is it just similar in description? Wrong...... Such an accident is too deliberate.
Seemingly...... I'll have to ask Karl next. Anyway, I'm looking for Carl, so let's ask by the way.
Since he couldn't get more information from this person, Xiao Yi didn't want to pay attention to him anymore, so he left directly.
……
After arriving at Carl's clinic, Xiao Yi found that Carl and the gentleman were already waiting for him.
"Mr. Xiao Yi, you're here." The gentleman smiled at Xiao Yi slightly, and then put away his smile again.
I don't know if it's because these things that happened in this town are so absurd that the smile that always hangs on the gentleman's face has dissipated.
He was just expressionless and bored.
"Xiao Yi, here." Seeing Xiao Yi, Carl didn't say much, and hurriedly took out a small bottle and opened it.
Inside the small bottle, there were strange blue pills.
"This is ......" Xiao Yi looked at the pills with a blank expression, "These are what you said, are these the drugs that the family uses to treat hallucinations?" ”
"Yes, that's right." Carl nodded, looking a little excited, "Thanks to the gentleman's help, I have finally come to this point, and this medicine has finally arrived!" ”
Before Carl's words fell, Xiao Yi heard the gentleman say to himself expressionlessly:
"However, on the way to obtain these drugs from the villa of the Glore family under the watchful eye of the Holy See, I made other discoveries. Xiao Yi, I think it's important for you to listen to it. ”
“…… Gentleman? What are you talking about? Karl looked puzzled, it seemed that the gentleman had not mentioned it to him.
"Any questions?" Xiao also asked.
"Because everyone in the family is dead, and everything that has been hidden has been turned out, I checked the records of the Glore family and found that this family has an interesting history."
The gentleman looked at Xiao Yi and said slowly:
"Their ancestors were originally just an ordinary fishing family, but one day when they were fishing at sea, they suddenly noticed that there were small stars in the starry sky falling into the sea, and they rowed over to look, but in the sea they found a mass of fleshy and delicate hairless creatures like babies, the mass of creatures wriggling, and suddenly made a human voice, begging the people around them to let them return to the sky.
The ancestor of the Glores family thought it was a novelty, so they brought it back to the house to exchange some money, but they did not want to explain it to the women of the family, who thought it was a novelty of fish, so they put it in the pot and boiled it. Although the ancestors of the Glore family regretted this, they finally ate it for the sake of not wasting it. Since then, the Glores and their children and grandchildren have become more and more intelligent from generation to generation, and some have acquired special abilities, and they have risen to prominence ever since.
However, the Glore family has since been cursed, and everyone often sees extremely tormenting hallucinations, and as they get older, they do not age, but their flesh becomes more and more distorted, becoming strange creatures, and then getting younger, even younger, the skin becomes more delicate, and the whole body is like a bone melting, becoming more petite and rounded, and finally becoming a hairless creature.
As for this pill...... To tell you the truth, it was actually made from the flesh of the hairless creature, because the people of the Glore family found that for some reason, this meat seemed to suppress the hallucinations of the people in the Gloer family, in other words...... The Glores suppressed their hallucinations by eating the meat of their ancestors.
And, not only that, but that flesh also contains a huge amount of memories, the ancestors of the Glore family, and the memories of the starry sky that the creature has, all the memories and knowledge have been passed down from generation to generation, which is why Glore's generation is stronger than the next, because they have hundreds of years of memory and knowledge. That's what it is...... The secret of the Glore family. ”
After the gentleman said this, he stared at Xiao Yi and said seriously:
"Xiao Yi, after hearing this, are you sure you still want to swallow this pill? We haven't tested it yet, so we don't know what the side effects are, what the dangers are, and maybe you'll become hairless...... Even, into a situation that is even more desperate than the current situation. ”
"......" Xiao Yi was silent.
He had made too many wrong choices, so he didn't dare to make random decisions anymore.
Therefore, Xiao also gave such an answer after the silence.
"It's up to you."
“…… Is it? The gentleman said no more, and watched all this silently.
"In that case, let's get started." Carl said: "It's been hard to get to this point, but you can't give up easily, then, this medicine will be handed over to you, swallow it." ”
Carl said that, and stuffed the medicine into Xiao Yi's hand, and Xiao Yi made his own decision.
“……”
However, Xiao Yi looked at the medicine in his hand, but he couldn't help but have an ominous intuition in his heart.
Xiao Yi hesitated for a moment, and then suddenly asked Carl:
"By the way, Karl, there's one thing I want to ask, is the secret you told me earlier related to that nameless and invisible unknown god?"
“…… Yes? Hearing Xiao Yi's question, Karl's face suddenly changed.
“…… Cal? Seeing that Carl was stunned, Xiao Yi stretched out his hand and shook it in front of his eyes, and asked, "Are you okay?" ”
"Ah...... Well. Carl's face returned to normal.
Then, Carl did not answer Xiao Yi's question, but asked Xiao Yi:
"Who are you listening to...... No, do you remember? Your missing memory? ”
"No......" Xiao Yi shook his head and replied truthfully: "I met a person on the road, he didn't say that I was one of the survivors of some accident, and he also mentioned that the survivors were all rescued by an unknown and invisible god." ”
“…… Is it? That's right. Karl breathed a sigh of relief.
"Carl, you haven't answered my question yet." Xiao also reminded: "I'll repeat it again, let me ask you, is the secret you told me before related to that nameless and invisible unknown god?" ”
“…… That's it. Karl was silent for a moment before he said, "It's true that there is a connection, but ...... That memory, since you have lost it, there is no need to mention it again, it is better for you. It's your hallucinations that are more important than that......"
"No......" Xiao Yi shook his head, "Anyway, I have to understand what happened, Carl, do you remember the god that Laetitia believed in?" Isn't that similar to the description of the god at that time? ”
“…… When you say that, it seems that this is indeed the case. ”
It's hard to say that the two are not related, plus the series of strange events that happened after Laetitia's death...... I'll put it bluntly, I think the god that Laetitia believes in is the so-called evil god. ”
"......" Karl was silent, not saying anything.
Xiao Yi continued: "If this is the case, then I may have encountered an evil god in the past, and this matter has something to do with me and the current situation, and I feel it is necessary to understand what happened at that time. ”
“…… Well, I'll tell you about it now....... Carl nodded and said to Xiao Yi, "Since that's the case, then tell you...... Of course, I wasn't a first-hand witness to that incident, and everything I know comes from you, so I don't know the details...... So, let me tell you that secret. ”
