In Arkham City, next to Rann's previously opened psychiatric clinic.

Originally, there was a clothing store next to the psychological clinic, but I don't know when the owner of the clothing store moved away, and it should have been in these two successive catastrophes that Arkham was not a place to stay for a long time, and for the sake of his own life, he moved the store to Orlandus overnight.

So, the shop was idle, and of course it didn't stay idle for long, and another person rented the store and turned it into a flower shop.

The sky in Arkham is rarely clear today, and the flower shop has been doing very well in the past two days, although most of the chrysanthemums sold are for memorial purposes. A man with somewhat messy hair walked into the shop.

"Welcome." The owner of the flower shop, a man with black and half-long hair, raised his head, his soft eyebrows and eyes were not inferior to the background of the flowers, and his half-length black hair was tied in a ponytail and draped over his shoulders, with a delicate gentleness.

Seeing that it was Kerry, Amos's eyes lit up, and he took a few steps forward and turned the store opening sign in front of the store, turning it into a reminder of the store's closure.

Then, Amos turned around again, and something strange began to appear in the store, first the flowers and plants suddenly began to tremble and grow wildly, and the flowers opened and withered one after another, and after a while, the floor of the store was covered with layers of petals, like a carpet, on which the figures of the light gradually appeared.

Amos's eyes widened excitedly, as if he was reluctant to spare a second, and Kerry was more self-aware, and lowered his head to count the petals on the ground.

Rann descended this time without anything to hide his face, his white hair, golden golden pupils, and beauty beyond human boundaries were completely exposed to the air.

Amos seemed to hear the hymn ringing in his ears, praising and playing His beauty as supreme, the spiritually polluted voice whispering how wonderful it was to be a tree, a flower, a dandelion in His forest, to be able to use the wind to caress the ends of His hair.

But fortunately, Amos withstood this pollution and did not turn into a plant in the face of Rann, he only trembled slightly, and then stood up straight, raised the curvature of the corners of his mouth, and smiled brightly.

"I have finally met you, the subversive of fate, the unspeakable mystery, the new lord of nature and forests."

Amos said word by word, and there was a madness in Ran's tone that Rann didn't understand.

Rann certainly didn't understand.

He wasn't surprised that Amos wasn't dead, but he wanted to talk to him, which surprised Rann a little.

Who gave him the courage to think he wouldn't finish him? Azathoth?

The reason why he went to the appointment was because as long as he was still in Arkham, Rann was not afraid of any wind and rain caused by Amos, no matter what Amos wanted to do, Rann came here for only one purpose.

That is to solve the threat of Amos once and for all.

"It seems that you already have the consciousness to be solved by me?"

"Can you give me a little time to explain before you do that?" Amos said.

Ran: "No. ”

Rann is not interested in what this fun man is thinking, anyway, ordinary people can't understand the brain circuit of this kind of madman, no matter what Amos arranged so much for him before, whether it is beneficial to him, Rann has no interest in knowing, let alone understanding.

It can only be said that after triggering the Arkham incident, Amos dared to appear in front of him, and Amos was very courageous.

Since the previous catastrophe, Arkham had become Ran's earthly kingdom, and most of it was covered in spiritual plants that were invisible to ordinary people, and the flower shop was no exception.

Amos only felt an invisible force restraining his body, and it was gradually tightening, threatening to strangle.

"The reason why Eugene is targeting the Secret Church is because of Mitan." Amos said with difficulty, "Behind the destruction of Mi is the shadow of the head of the inspectorate, who cannot tolerate the stain on the object of his faith. ”

Rann didn't frown, Rann already knew that the Inspection Bureau was deliberately destroying Mi University as early as Albert's dream, even if it was the will of their director behind it.

"The real body of the director of the inspection bureau is an old monster that has existed for thousands of years, the 'fate' that guides mankind in myths and legends" Amos said in a hoarse voice, his ribs had already begun to break, and if he continued, he would probably puncture his lungs.

But even in this situation, there was not a trace of resentment rising in Amos's heart, and the mere realization of this thought brought a deep sense of pleasure to his mind.

He noticed that even if he confided this information that could set off a thousand waves in the outside world, Ran's brow did not wrinkle even a little.

Sure enough, He already knew......

Ran: "Is that your last word?" ”

Before the invisible vines crushed Amos's body, Amos's next moment of information made Rann stop moving.

"He's coming to the city soon, not just for you, he's eyeing your disciples."

Disciple?

Rann was stunned for a moment, Amos didn't say the word believer, because now Arkham City is full of Ran's believers, but there are only a few people who can be called disciples in the secret church.

That's right, it's Albert, Cullens, Archie, and Edmund, and only they left a spot of light in Ranne's dream.

And Rann has been verified many times and found that this doesn't seem to have much to do with piety, because now there are still believers in Arkham City who don't eat or drink for three days for God, that is, Rann prays for blessings, Rann doesn't think Albert is more religious than these people, but he doesn't understand what the reason for the appearance of the light spot is.

The vine that bound Amos untied, and Amos, who was almost crushed, fell to the ground, coughing up a large mouthful of blood with internal organs.

"Why?" Rann asked.

"Would you like to listen to me?" Amos asked.

Rann didn't answer, but instead asked, "Your purpose, say it." ”

Let Kerry deliver the words, and appear in front of Rann without fear of death, Rann doesn't know what this man wants to do.

"My purpose has always been one," the man coughed twice, his voice hoarse, the blood he coughed up stained the petals red, and he looked up with great difficulty, his eyes filled with frightening fanaticism, "I want to stay by your side and become your believer." ”

Rann couldn't help but laugh out loud: "And then use your ability to backstab me?" ”

Others don't know Amos' abilities, can Rann still be unfamiliar, he is not familiar, and the players who have been killed by Amos in the forum in his previous life are also familiar with it!

Through the condition of cultivation and help, backstab the target when it reaches the peak, and seize the origin ability of the target.

This is the information that players have long figured out in the previous life, and the process of how to figure it out is miserable, Amos's bounty pool has been hanging on the front page of the player forum for a long time, during which there are constantly bounties flowing into the bounty pool, and there are also players who have succeeded with their best efforts, but unfortunately Amos seems to have some immortal skills, and he is frequently killed, and he frequently appears to do evil again, and players once suspected that this person was actually the incarnation of Naia.

"No, how can you think so," said Amos, "that your beauty is incomparable to that of a flower in a vase, and that the flower of Kaolin, which grows only on the cliffs, is enough to make me happy just by looking at it." ”

Rann was silent, and after half a ring, he bent down and pointed to Amos's heart, "Do you have this feeling?" ”

He looked into Amos' eyes, which were indeed full of obsession and fanaticism, but the deepest part was empty.

During the most annoying period of Amos, many of the homepages of the forum were full of his crusade posts, ability analysis posts, whereabouts speculation posts, confrontation skills, and a summary of Amos's skills.

Of course, character analysis is also indispensable, and after the Twist of Fate open beta, it became popular all over the Internet, and all NPCs out of the circle have character analysis posts, and Amos is no exception, although he is ranked as 'players hate NPCs the most'.

However, from the perspective of personality analysis alone, Amos's personality model has attracted the attention of many psychologists, including Rann, because he is a typical high-IQ antisocial personality.

Rann knows him well, and this is not a joke, and he almost wrote a graduation thesis on the plot of Amos in the game, because some of his traits are really quite in line with the typical case of a high-IQ antisocial personality.

He is arrogant, narcissistic, and treats NPCs as flowers, while he himself is a florist and has the power to cultivate and cut them, which is clearly a manifestation of putting himself in a high position, reducing people who are equal to him as an object.

Very good at manipulating conversations, being kind, able to win everyone's affection, and good at playing all kinds of roles, which is why he won the favor of NPCs.

He shows a surprising indifference to morality and ethics, is quite persistent in his own goals, is very self-disciplined, and will give everything to get or complete a certain goal, but after getting it, he quickly abandons it and continues to devote himself to the next goal.

In the final analysis, this stage-by-stage goal, or the act of collecting flowers, brought a rare sense of satisfaction to an emotionally apathetic person like Amos, and it just so happened that he had the ability to do so, so everything fell into place.

So when he says 'happiness', he only makes Rann feel ridiculous.

"Also, I hate the way you look at me." Rann said.

Poof.

Amos had a little more in the depths of his eyes, and before he could react, his view went dark, and a piece of dead wood grew out of his pupils.

"It's so much more pleasing to the eye." Rann said.

Amos snorted, trembling all over, but suppressed and did not let out any screams: "I never wanted to go against you, why can't you give me a chance?" ”

"Do you call your previous behavior not going against me?" Rann wondered.

"If it's when I'm a stranger, then it's really my fault," Amos bowed his head, "but I haven't done anything to your detriment since Sauron's death. ”

Rann almost laughed angrily: "Arkham's disaster was gently spared by you?" ”

Amos wondered, "Do you mind the death of a human being?" ”

"The people who died in that disaster were Arkham, and it doesn't make a difference to you how many you die, does it? Even if it is the Kamuyi, there will be no shortage of believers who can replace them. Amos said, "After you appear, the rest of Arkham will become your followers, and Arkham City will be in essence."

Become your territory, and these benefits are enough to hedge against the risk of the death of the Kamuyi. ”

What's more, isn't it still dead.

Although Amos did not explicitly state it, the meaning of his words was obvious.

He was indeed using his own methods to help Rann, and what he did was completely in line with the philosophy of a cultist, and even said that if Rann was really an evil god, he would applaud his plan.

While Rann was silent, Amos struck while the iron was hot and said, "I mean that I want to be your follower, and I can do what no one else can do, and clear all obstacles for you, including against the Inspectorate." ”

"Soon there will be a lot of people from unseen organizations or other forces pouring into the city, I know they are no different from ants on the ground to you, but if there are more ants, the owner of the house will also be upset, won't I, I can do it for you, clean up everything that will be harmful to you and your property."

Rann knew he could do it, and he turned his head to look at Kerry and changed the subject, "You know Kerry Chapman?" ”

Amos: "We're netizens. ”

Kerry: "I don't know him, I don't know him, you know, who knows if it's a person or a dog typing on the other side of the network these days." ”

Amos:?

Amos turned his head in confusion, and Kerry stood in a different direction.

"Look," Rann laughed, "even a researcher can see better than you do." ”

"Amos, it's true that I'm not human, but I think I might have more of a human side than you."

Rann snapped his fingers, and the vines restrained Amos again, this time without hesitation, snapping Amos' neck.

And Amos still looked at him quietly, even at the last moment of his life, there was no resentment in his eyes when he looked at Ran, it seemed that even death, as long as Rann gave it, he was willing to eat.

"Need my help disposing of the body?" Kerry asked tentatively.

Rann just glanced at him lightly, "No. ”

The vines wrapped around Kerry's ankles, pulling him back into the kingdom of dreams, and Rann planned to bring Amos with him.

In his previous life, Amos died many times, but after a period of time, he was able to jump back alive, Rann had no intention of letting the tiger return to the mountain, as long as he entered the kingdom of God in his dreams, no matter what means Amos had, he could only let him handle it.

Rann will try all the means that can kill him, and if he really can't kill him, burying it under the peas to make fertilizer is also a good choice, anyway, he won't give Amos a chance to come out and stir up trouble again.

Kerry is the same thing, Rann has not fully trusted him, and simply keeps people in the kingdom of God temporarily, of course, for the sake of his former assistant professor at Mi-Mi, Rann will not do anything to him, and will let him move freely in Mi-Mi, and the plants will watch him.

Back in the Kingdom of Dreams, Rann reappears at Minami, casually drops Amos's body to a mutated man-eating flower to digest, and puts a surveillance eye on him, and returns to the auditorium with Kerry.

By this time, the players were almost gone, to enjoy their Dense life, and when Rann returned, he was surprised to find the black cat still sitting in its place.

"Lord Lann!" Seeing Rann come back, the black cat's eyes lit up and quickly stood up.

When Rann returned to the Kingdom of God, he had put on a white cloth to cover his face again, and when he saw the old acquaintance of the player, the black cat, his tone became gentle: "Is there something wrong?" ”

"Lord Rann, I—I have something I want to ask you, I wonder if you have time now?" The black cat was a little apprehensive.

Rann looked at him, and the curious eyes of the players who also stayed behind him, "Follow me." ”

As the words fell, the black cat and Rann disappeared from the auditorium, and the black cat found himself reappearing on a small road in Michigan, with no one around but a man-eating flower munching on something.

Ran: "What do you want to ask?" ”

The black cat struggled to look away from the fingers that leaked out of the cannibal flower's mouth, trying his best not to think about which unlucky egg was eaten: "That's right, we didn't investigate the culprit behind the incident in the last disaster, which has always been a concern to me. ”

Black Cat, as well as many players, believe that because of the players' behavior, the plot will deviate from the original trajectory, so now most players do not know the truth of this disaster.

"The culprits of the disaster are Amos and Eugene," Rann said after a pause, "Amos you should have seen it, and Eugene is from the Inspectorate." ”

Important!

The black cat's pupils shrank slightly, and he said in a trembling voice: "Inspection Bureau? But why do the people of the inspection bureau do such a hurtful thing? ”

"I was going to say that individual actions are not representative of the entire organization," Rann sighed, "but now, who knows, as far as I know, they are doing this to prevent Mi from reappearing." ”

Seeing that the black cat still had a lot of questions to ask, Rann waved his hand: "Okay, the culprits behind the scenes have died, and the specific truth is unknown, go back." ”

With that, the figure of the black cat had disappeared from front of him.

But the information revealed by Rann undoubtedly stirred up a thousand waves in the heart of the black cat, and this wave will undoubtedly flow to the forum.

Player forums

The homepage is now almost completely flooded by the University of Michigan, and players who have successfully enrolled in the University of U-M have ostentatiously posted several photos of campus life, improved attributes, or successfully changed careers on the forums.

The injustice is on leave: it can be changed to a student career, it's amazing.

Head Chef Cooking: The student's occupation should be that you can change it in any school you enroll, but to be honest, this change is useless, it is similar to the incidental skill points and attribute points of unemployed youth, and you will lose money from time to time, because you have to pay tuition......

Silent Night: Woo woo, don't let me come, I want to be a student at Mi University!

Anarnata: Look at your unproductive appearance, isn't it just a fictional Mita, I don't care, it's not a fictitious Mita, I don't care, it's not a fictitious Mita, I don't care (lemon.)

Blood Pressure Spike Simulator Actually, Orlandu is also quite fun here, a modern metropolis, and there are many forces here, and you can also join the inspection bureau (try to comfort yourself

Preserved eggs and tofu: The new port is not bad, there are really many □□ organizations here, and my team members were pulled to listen to the propaganda of the sect today, that is, the atmosphere of the running group is strong (comfort yourself

It's all actors: it's okay to go upstairs, it's too poignant.

Long Live Pure Love: I feel that the official arrangement is quite reasonable, and hanging up can also increase attributes, I just hope that the extracurricular activities of U-M University can be a little richer.

Luo Jiuchen: Laughing to death, don't you all do your daily work in the secret church outside of class, what is this, you shouldn't go to Mitra, you should go to his rival school, the one who turned out of the infidels, and the tutor will definitely give you full marks for extracurricular activities.

Wait for me to call the car baker: I think that there must be a dry rice person in the secret church, or Rann is the god of dry rice, otherwise how could he deliberately toss so many delicacies, what kind of chef's sub-profession paradise,

Black Cat: It's so lively here.

It's difficult to understand outsiders: the big guy has appeared, what department did you choose, big guy, we may have the opportunity to be classmates.

Black Cat: I chose the occult, but wait, I found out a lot of news today, I'll make a new post.

"The Second Main Line: The Dark Rooted in Light (Prelude)"

Black Cat: I asked for information from Rann about the culprits of the second main line, Amos and Eugene from the Inspection Bureau.

Do adolescent androids dream of beautiful gods: Amos! (Sharpen the knife.)

Poet of Fish and Scraps: I know it's this girl!

Good people are released on medical parole: there is still the participation of the inspection bureau, this organization is completely broken.

Painting a puppet to you: I think so too, although there are many examples of the Church of Light being a villain in online games or in the game, but the inspection bureau...... (Mixed feelings.)

222-=222: Why did it fall to this point (crying) because it's the only officially recognized investigator organization in the Ke department?

Mommy is hungry: It's not incomprehensible, they are walking on the edge of the most dangerous and crazy, and they are almost doomed by one step, and now they may have stepped on the air.

Black Cat: Don't worry everyone, the matter hasn't been settled yet, and the plot of the Inspection Bureau hasn't officially appeared yet, so don't rush to make a conclusion.

Black Cat: But it should be soon, the official Orland, this new map has the headquarters of the Inspection Bureau, plus now that the real culprit of the second main line has been known, including Eugene from the Inspection Bureau, it can be basically determined, this second main line of 'darkness is rooted in light', referring to the Inspection Bureau, this prelude, which means that the last main line is completely for a big main line to pave the way.

Druid:...... Other words.

Black Cat: That's right, I suspect it, no, it's almost certain now, the main line of the third version, not surprisingly, is related to the Inspection Bureau.

Matcha Custard: Is it finally time to fight against the biggest evil force in the game?

Aaron: I'm so excited! It feels like it's going to be a big scene!

The weakness is money: it's so interesting, ah, ah, the official hurry up and open the main line!

From now on, I have no intention of loving the night: I have an idea, it is better to go directly to the inspection bureau in Orlandus now, and then when the main line comes......

Night: Backstabbing?

Washing your hair with boiling water: a great idea! In this way, once the main line of the inspection bureau is really opened, wouldn't the player who can take the lead in achieving a high position in the inspection bureau have a huge advantage, and it is very convenient to get information or backstab!

Tiny Pig: Makes sense!

Miss not love: Hahaha, isn't this the counterattack of new players! Get the most benefit from this main line, and the intelligence Meimei dedicates to his wife.

Bunny Star: Achieve corner overtaking! U-Mi can't give me a letter of recommendation!

Druid: Professor Mi-M died with regret, how can there be a ghost like you (laughs and crys: ,,.
