364. Energy Field, Missing Mother and Son
Dean drove the car to a rusty iron gate that was separated to the sides, and behind the door was a cemetery covering an area of more than ten square kilometers, dotted with grass and snow, with many tombstones, some of which had just been erected in the last year or two with legible handwriting, and some of which had stood hundreds of years ago, and the epitaphs had become illegible due to the wind and sun.
The setting sun has just fallen into the horizon, weaving an eerie gray sunset in mid-air, casting a pale mist over the cemetery.
Gloomy and lonely.
It grew stronger and stronger, like a curse.
Dean suppressed the faint uneasiness in his heart and woke up his companion who was resting in the car,
"Guys, it's time to get to the place, I've slept long enough today."
"Sorry man, I don't know what's going on, I keep having a nightmare."
Sean got out of the car, his bloodshot pupils turned to the desolate cemetery, and a group of crows standing on the dead trees were frightened by the footsteps of the crowd, and swept noisily through the air, leaving an ominous black trail,
"In my dream appeared a nocturnal species that I had never seen before, with a vague face, waving a pair of large, narrow wings suspended in the darkness, staring at me with large eyes that glowed red like light bulbs, and I was hairy to see at me. By the way, its wings don't look like birds, and they don't look like bats. ”
Dean touched his chin, a new type of nocturnal species?
"I've had dreams too, but it's not a nightmare." Monica and Christine said in unison, a faint shyness appeared on their faces, "The content is strange..."
"I don't dream, but I don't sleep well..."Boone's rough face was tense like a poker, his brows were furrowed like cracked ravines, and his fingers rubbed the center of his eyebrows repeatedly, "Dizzy and swollen, as if I had high blood pressure, but with my physical fitness, it shouldn't be." ”
"What's the matter with you guys, you caught a cold from training last night?" Peter wiped his nose with his index finger refreshedly, and put on a hood to shield himself from the skin-burning sunset in the sky, "Where are so many problems?" ”
"Listen to me, it's a good sign." Dean examined everyone's body from God's perspective, and found no illness, and the light of life was normal, "This proves that we are walking in the right direction, getting closer and closer to Midian, and being exposed to its special energy field, which caused this series of strange symptoms." But brace yourself, and there may be more unpredictable dangers ahead. ”
Everyone nodded, followed Dean into the cemetery with solemn faces, and searched in two ways.
Boone, Shaun, and the two-headed vampire search the South.
Dean took Christine and headed straight north, scanning the ground of every grave along the way.
All the coffins were tightly covered, and the corpses were honestly lying in them to sleep, the degree of decay matched the time and climate, and there was no variation.
Further down the coffin, within half a kilometer of God's perspective, Dean failed to detect the tunnels, caves, and beehive-like underground kingdoms that he had seen in the murals.
He was sure that the cemetery was not the location of Midian, the monster paradise.
But gradually, as he got closer and closer to the north of the cemetery.
A trace of invisible searing air attached to him from the air around him, seeping into the life shield like flames, burrowing into his skin and blood vessels, and going straight down the blood to his brain.
The center of Dean's eyebrows began to heat and swell on the ground, and the tombstones, snow, bushes, and shrubs in his vision also distorted with the beating heat, spreading outward with circles of viscous folds like oil paintings, casting abstract shadows on the ground.
Strange and intense emotions, hunger, thirst, killing, copulation, all kinds of desires rose uncontrollably.
In addition, under the perspective of Dean's skill, countless spatial nodes here were beating irregularly, radiating jagged rays of light, like unstable bombs about to detonate, all pointing to the dark void.
"This cemetery is by no means Midian, but it is permeated with alien energy, which can not only interfere with the perception and emotions of the living, but also interfere with the space, and the crazy owner and guests of the restaurant in Tranquility Town are also affected by it?"
Dean suppressed the restless distractions with a strong will, and walked quickly to the northernmost part of the cemetery, where the xenogeneous energy was most active, and found two newly built tombs next to each other, and the rudimentary tombstones recorded:
"Bonnie Grapp, died on February 24, 1982, at the age of 48..."
"Ani Grapp, died on February 26, 1982, at the age of 19..."
"A mother and son died one after another more than half a month ago." Dean's perspective swept down the earth, the two coffins were empty, and the bodies of the two mothers and sons were nowhere to be found.
And that's not even the weirdest of all.
Behind the tombstone stood two bare maple trees at short intervals.
Their trunks and branches were normal, but their roots, which should have gone deep into the ground, broke through the snow and burrowed above the ground, twisting in the middle of the two trees into a twisted and varied, knob-and-criss-crossing clump of roots, which from a distance looked like two people hugging each other so passionately that they became one.
Above the roots, a row of red-eyed crows rattled their black wings and pecked at the remains of their companions with their long, bloody beaks.
"It seems that not only living people, but also animals and plants are affected by the energy field."
Dean rubbed his chin and began to sort it out.
"The biggest secret in the cemetery is this magical energy field, and the energy field near the two tombstones is the strongest, and it stands to reason that the generation of the energy field should have some kind of connection with the dead in the tomb."
"Finding their missing bodies may be able to find out the root of this energy field."
"When the time comes, I'll look for the entrance to Midian."
Di Anxin thought about it, and the "bloodline" in the system jumped to 91%, and a prompt appeared in front of his eyes - triggering the event "Missing Mother and Son"
Find out the whereabouts of Bonnie and Ani Grapp, who are buried in the cemetery east of Pisriver Town.

……
"Let's go back to the town first to understand the basic situation of the mother and son."
Dean made a decision, turning to Christine, who was leaning against a maple tree, her cheeks burning like a sunset, and her moist eyes glowing with a misty.
Her willpower and physique are far inferior to Dean's, and she is much more affected by the energy field.
"Kenny, it's hot... I'm so dizzy... Are the temperatures rising? ”
"There's something wrong with this place, you should take a break."
Dean snapped her fingers, and Christine closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Then Dean heard a fierce wolf howl coming from the south side of the cemetery, and teleported over with the girl.
Under the low night, the white snow was dyed a terrible bright red.
The two nocturnal species and the two vampires bared their fangs and claws, and their eyes were red as they lay on several wolf corpses that had been dismantled.
Sean's sharp claws lifted a wolf's head, sipping from the sliding fountain of blood with a fierce and cruel grin.
"What are you doing here?"
Dean's voice exploded overhead like a muffled thunderbolt, and the four people who were eating frantically trembled all over, and the bloodshot eyes and the animalistic features on their faces faded,
"Sorry, man... The wolves suddenly burst out of the twilight and attacked us, and I couldn't help but launch a counterattack. ”
"It's hot, and my brain is mush." Boone nodded his eyebrows with a grim face, "Not long after entering the cemetery, this part became more and more painful, as if something was about to come out. Only killing, destroying, and eating can alleviate this pain..."
Monica and Peter also wiped the blood from the corners of their mouths with palpitations.
Dean God's perspective swept away, and there was a strange redness and bulge in the center of the four eyebrows and the outside of the skull, and the light of life became chaotic like a crow in a cemetery.
"This energy field not only affects the mind and spirit, but also interferes with the physical body... Let's leave the cemetery first and go back to the town to find out a little bit about the situation. ”
