A humanoid silhouette flashed in the darkness, strong, vicissitudes, and solid, like a reef standing in the rapids.

Under the beating and washing day after day, it did not become fragile at all, but was sharpened to become more and more sharp and sharp.

It was filled with a spirit-like arrogance and uninhibited momentum, tearing through the darkness and reaching straight into the sky.

Crushed the psychic power that Dean used to observe.

He snorted and exited the dark realm of his mind, and when he opened his eyes, he saw neatly arranged bookshelves and black carpets.

And the little girl with long curly hair who was sitting curled up next to him pulled back his little hand like an electric shock, frowning on her immature little face, and her nosebleed dripping down drop by drop,

"I'm sorry, Dean, I couldn't see your father's exact address, I only know that he is northeast."

"It's hard work, it's already a big breakthrough." Dean grabbed a tissue next to her to wipe off her nosebleed, stuffed a candy into her little mouth, and told her to go next door to play games with the Dustin four to relax.

Looking at her departing back, a trace of memory flashed in Dean's eyes.

During this period of time, he has repeatedly activated the Black Domain of his mind alone to capture Lu Guangming's position, but he can only feel the general direction and vague figure of the other party, this time he cooperated with Jian to launch the Black Domain, and his spiritual power doubled, accurately capturing Lu Guangming's outline, but unfortunately he was crushed by a mysterious force before he could open his mouth to communicate.

"This isolating the peep should be the power that envelops Midian, Lu Guangming entered Midian, and changed greatly."

Dean had a solemn look in his eyes, more than two years ago, from August to September 79, when Lu Guangming escaped from the underground base of the Lafayette Toad Man, he was just an ordinary regeneration ability. (Chapter 208)

Branded by the chameleon Otto, he becomes one of the 7 in the fable and travels to North Athabasca and East Pith River to follow in the footsteps of Midian.

In just two years, it seems that some inhuman changes have taken place in his body.

……

"Could it be that Lu Guangming has already begun to transform into a nocturnal species?"

Dean looked at the shadow beside him, the corners of his eyes drooped on his face that was exactly the same as himself, and a bitter smile hung on the corner of his mouth, revealing the helplessness in his heart-

Shadow himself is an inhuman ghost.

Her mother, Lena, became a snake demon.

The father also has a tendency to convert to nocturnal seeds.

Three monsters in one door?

"Don't worry too much, at least Lu Guangming is still alive and well. Well, Sean and the others just told me that they had a harvest, and asked about the situation. ”

Dean patted Shadow on the shoulder, then pulled away from the node and roamed through the void into a food warehouse full of shelves.

Under the wall on the right, Damien, dressed in a floral shirt, greeted respectfully and pulled back a piece of tarpaulin, revealing hundreds of tin-covered cans underneath, like black building blocks.

"Master, this is the five tons of high-energy protein food you wanted."

Dean summoned a can in the air, and his index finger spewed out a beam of white-gold life energy, slicing the lid of the can open like a spray gun.

Lobster-like, milky-white, sponge-like flesh.

Dean pulled out a piece the size of a fingernail and tasted it, there was no peculiar smell, it was light with a sweet fragrance, and it was transformed into an abundant hot stream that washed his whole body and filled his hungry body.

It's quite sensible to eat.

"Well, 20g, the energy contained in it is worth a hundred pounds of flesh and blood, I only need to digest and absorb 50g, and I can completely restore life energy."

Dean contentedly packed the pile of cans into the fantasy space, pondering a time to scatter them and store them in safe houses around Hawkins.

Dr. Sean, in a white lab coat not far away, handed over a stack of documents stacked high like a tome, "This is all the information we have access to about supernatural monsters so far. ”

Dean casually turned a page - Water Monkey: A man-eating water monster that inhabits the Central American region, half-human, half-monkey, with a long tail and a hand, used to grab people near the water, and will make humanoid cries to attract people closer when hunting, especially eating human eyes, teeth, and nails.

Then there's the long-haired and carrion-loving Banshee El, the half-human, half-bird friendly Aaron, the two-headed lizard, the molten monster, the weeping girl, the corrosive beast...

Most of the monsters in the data live in human society, or in nearby sewers and suburban forests, and through various methods, such as transfiguring into human forms and moving regularly, they hide their true identities and delay the onset of convergence law.

They have left only a few records in the folk and the market, forming plausible legends and fairy tales, and they have been in existence for thousands of years, and have learned how to live in peace with human beings.

Their powers are also bizarre, involving mind control of the mind, emotional absorption, physical superpowers, fangs and claws, poison...

But in Dean's opinion, ninety percent of his combat power is only level 2 or 3, and he is still fighting against firearms, which is a matter of his own punch, "The monsters recorded by your special operations department are so weak? ”

"Master, it's not that they're weak," the shallow beach on his shoulders looked at the man with angular features and not too sharp with a respectful face, "It's that you are too strong, and your combat power is already one thousandth of the top among all supernatural creatures." ”

Sean and Damien, who were leaning against the wall, also seized the opportunity to pat themselves on the back, "Even in the Special Operations Division, you are an elite. But this is a normal phenomenon, just like in human society, the poor account for 99 percent, and the rich are only a small handful. ”

"In the supernatural world, level 1 to 3 creatures are the majority, otherwise the whole earth is already in chaos."

"But there are also particularly powerful ones, such as the two monster forces you asked us to focus on investigating before, Leviathan and Baphosphine."

Sean suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed to the previous record of the data, and read it out,

In the Old Testament, the root of the Bible, God created three behemoths, Behemoth, the land beast, Leviathan, the sea lord, and the sky lord Perch, out of clay on the sixth day of Genesis.

"When the end of the world comes, together the three behemoths will be the food of the Holy."

"The Leviathan has hard scales, sharp teeth, spikes under its abdomen, is good at waves and upstreams, roars in the water, has smoke on the tip of its nose, and spouts fire from its mouth... It is the greatest dragon of chaos that God has ever created, and obeys God's commands. ”

"But in later developments in the Bible, in the New Testament and later in Christian literature, it degenerated into a symbol of evil, representing the second original sin, 'jealousy,' which means sin arising from unsatisfying desires."

"At this time, Leviathan was jealous of the gods on high, jealous that they could command him to control all life in the mortal world, and because of jealousy, he had a desire to destroy everything, to kill all gods, including God, and to scorch the whole world."

Speaking of original sin, Christianity holds that all of humanity's original sins are derived from the arrogance of the first sin and the envy of the second sin. It can be seen that the Leviathan is more evil than most monsters. ”

……

Dean rubbed his fingers against the paper, his eyes grim, "I'm looking for a Leviathan related to the Monks of Hell, not the ethereal myths and legends of the Bible." ”

"But there's a definite relationship between them." Sean pointed to a record, "According to the investigation of the Special Operations Division, the current Leviathan lives in a certain subordinate world on Earth, and has created a group of deformed humanoids called the Hell Monks, who have been summoned by the Box of Mourning to come to the human world and take away some gifted humans. ”

"And in the few encounters with the Hellfriars, several groups found that the Hellweers hated God, Christianity, and other related things for no reason, and almost every time they met, they would fight to the death, and they represented the will of the Leviathan."

"So Leviathan is very similar to the demon of rebellion against God recorded in the New Testament..."

Dean furrowed his brows and fell into deep thought, "The Leviathan I'm looking for is really a demon created by God?" ”

"No one can answer," muttered Sean, "no one has ever seen a Leviathan with their own eyes, and no one has been taken away by a monk and returned to the world. ”

"The only thing to be thankful for is that the Hell Monks, although at least level four, operate infrequently, on a small scale, and take only a few people they are interested in, almost paranoid, and less harmful than the occasional street shootout."

Sean circled Dean,

"They have a very low priority on the matters to be addressed by the Special Operations Division, so they are not focused on, or they are delved in, and there is limited information."

……

"Well, Leviathan and the monk are supposed to be some kind of demons related to God." Dean slowly flipped to the next page, "What about the other monster force I'm looking for?" ”

"Bafu extinguished." Damien walked over to Dean and spat on his fingers, turning to page 120, "This thing is also inextricably linked to God. ”

"In various legends, it is described as a Christian demon with a sheep's head and a human body."

"In Christianity, however, it is called the original sin of 'jealousy.'"

Damien paused and looked at Dean, "Do you see what Leviathan and Baphra have in common?" ”

Before Dean could speak, he felt a shock in his shoulder, and the shallows staggered, "It's all demons that represent 'jealousy'!" ”

Damien bowed, "From this point of view alone, it is clear that they are on the united front against Christ. ”

"But in fact, for unknown reasons, Paphra and Leviathan are also mortal enemies, and their families will not die as soon as they meet."

Dean thought of the last time he saw the Monks of Hell, and the hatred that these guys had for themselves, the person who had been marked by the Buffo, was deep in their bones.

Damien continued, "Just as Leviathan has the Monks of Hell as minions to practice his own path. ”

"Paphra ruled the nocturnal species, confined most of them to Midian, and established an iron law that no one should kill or eat the natural species, i.e., ordinary humans. A small number of nocturnal species violated the Iron Law and were driven out of Midian, exiled to the rest of the world. ”

"Isn't Baph a demon?" Dean looked at him with a frown, "Why do you want to restrict your dependents from eating people?" ”

Damien's blue eyes stared into the air, thinking, and after a moment he shook his head, "I don't know. In short, those exiled nocturnal species entered society, multiplied and interbred with humans, and their bloodlines flowed in the human world, far outnumbering the Hell Monks... It is no exaggeration to say that there are hundreds of nocturnal species in every state in the United States, but most of them have faded their bloodlines, shed all alienated characteristics, and become cannibals. ”

Dean nodded, he had been through it before,

Damien said jealously, "Think about what a strange race with superhuman strength lifespan, but still able to reproduce with humans." The Special Operations Unit has attempted to capture nocturnal species and use them as a model for concocting biological weapons. ”

Damien pointed to a humanoid creature with pangolin-like scales sketched in the document, "After a variety of experiments, nocturnal people have very selfish personalities, are not bound by secular morality, do whatever they want, and their personalities can be said to be extremely complex and changeable." And the appearance and ability are very different, and most of them can be mixed in human society..."

Dean nodded sympathetically, and his mind flashed to the medusa who died under his hands (Chapter 97), the Hedgehog Head (Chapter 149), and the Chameleon (Chapter 208)...

But the Special Operations Division's investigation found that, without exception, nocturnal species have a soul-wrenching dislike or contempt for God and Christianity. Convinced that Midianite was the true 'heaven' and that Paphrav was their 'God', they were not exiled, but they were subjected to a kind of trial, and when they died heroically in the prophesied battle, they passed the trial and returned to their homeland. The strength of this belief is comparable to that of a fanatical believer. ”

"This is not for nothing, the body withers and weathers after death, and the soul returns to a certain place, not to be manipulated and captured."

"The members of the task force never had a chance to investigate Midian's whereabouts."

"I didn't tell you an address," Dean glanced across the eyes of both of them, "North Athabasca, East Pith River,"

This was the clue Dean had gotten from the mouths of the three nocturnal creatures.

Damien shook his head, "Unfortunately, we have checked all the known locations on the world map during this time, and there are no two addresses. ”

……

"Everything we've investigated is here, master." Dr. Sean straightened the golden parting in front of his forehead and concluded, "Paphers and Leviathan are both demons known as 'jealousy' who hate God and are mortal enemies of each other. ”

The system shook.

The progress of the event "Bloodline", which has not changed for a long time, has jumped from 80% to 82%.

Both Leviathan and Paphrasin belong to the original sin of jealousy,

What exactly does this do?

"This kind of information is too general." Dean shook his head dissatisfied, "I want to know their weaknesses and nemesis, especially Baffu. ”

In Las Vegas, Dean has long been branded by Baver, although he has never been hurt by the other party, and as his will improves, the strange summoning that used to be has not occurred for a long time.

But if you want to find Lu Guangming this time, you must face Ba Fu directly, and this thing must be a god who is more than level 6.

Dean must know more about the other party.

Sean muttered, "The only way to get to know this is to personally enter the legendary Leviathan Hell, Midian, and we don't have this ability at the moment. ”

Dean looked at the shallows, who blinked blankly with an indescribable round of eyes.

"Oh well. You continue to help me investigate the information of the two-headed demon, there is news, the mind informs me. ”

Dean finished speaking, took the information, opened the node and left the food warehouse.

……

He then returned to Hawkins, found a roadside phone booth, and called Professor Aiden.

After all, not long ago, he also asked Aiden to help him investigate (Chapter 276).

"Hi, Aiden. Did you have any news about what I asked you about last time? ”

"Well, it's still under investigation... I can fax you some of the information. Aiden enthusiastically presented the information he had gathered on the microphone, but unfortunately it coincided with the information obtained by Sean and Damien.

Dean was disappointed, "No more? ”

"There's an occult expert who specializes in the study of Leviathan and Papherine, and I couldn't get in touch with him by phone, so I suggest you go and see for yourself, William White, 58, white male, Columbus, Ohio, German City in the south... Let's just say that Kenny of Alamo University introduced it. ”

"Ohio?" Dean looked up at the road to the east outside the phone booth, which was next door to Hawkins' Indiana.

Not far away.

He flew at full speed at night in less than an hour to arrive, and could roam back to Hawkins' safe house at any time if he had any problems.

"Do you have a picture?"

"Unfortunately, no, I just had a few words with the professor."

"Well, I'll visit in person."
