Start Cthulhu with priest

Chapter 180 179. Is it me, or the world? (4000)

Uesugi Koji, who walked out of the tomb, saw it.

In the dim light of the sky.

On the desolate and silent cemetery, one after another tombstones set by unknown people stood silently.

——This is a scene that Uesugi Koji has been familiar with for a long time.

However, today, beside almost every tombstone, there is a pale figure, as pale as a white shirt that has been washed thousands of times, and also like faded white paper.

In any case, that kind of paleness cannot be possessed by living people!

They stare blankly, blankly, ahead.

The aura on his body is ancient, as if it came from a long and terrible age, and it seems to be able to maintain this movement until the end of time.

Uesugi Koji was stunned and horrified.

He had never seen anything like this since he entered the Silent Cemetery.

Never even heard of it.

‘Where did these people come from? '

'No, maybe they're... not human? At least, not a living person! '

Uesugi Koji suddenly froze.

In such a cemetery, if you are not a living person, then you are... an undead?

Or rather, ghosts?

As a follower of Huijiao, Uesugi Koji has also dealt with incidents related to undead, so he knows how weird and terrifying that kind of existence is.

At this time, he couldn't help raising his head again and looking around.

In the Silent Cemetery, there are such ghosts everywhere, and their number is almost impossible to count.

There was a chill behind the tall man: "This is considered..."

'Hundred ghosts walk in the daytime? '

But for some reason, Uesugi Koji actually felt that kind of breath, a little familiar?

Suppressing the uneasiness in his heart, Koji Uesugi hurried to a tombstone not far away, tapped it three times, and said in a low voice.

"Senior, senior, something happened!"

This is the "residence" of a very senior senior whom Uesugi Koji knew, and it is also the old man who persuaded Mrs. Cat and thought he was "a donkey's liver and lungs with good intentions".

Although he was not very friendly when dealing with Mrs. Cat.

But in fact, for the newcomers who first entered this place, the old man gave a lot of help, and even told them all the information they knew without reservation.

If Mrs. Cat hadn't repeatedly rejected his kindness, the old man wouldn't have had that attitude.

Uesugi Koji trusted this senior very much, so he wanted to come to him immediately.

"Don't panic, what happened?"

The old man's words sounded faintly.

Then, the gray-haired figure came to the surface from the tomb.

He asked suspiciously, "Brother Uesugi, why do you look so ugly?"

Uesugi Koji's expression changed dramatically, his lips trembled, cold sweat dripped down from his temples uncontrollably, but he couldn't say a word.

The old man was even more puzzled: "Didn't you say something happened?"

"Tell me, what happened?"

"I……"

Uesugi Koji barely suppressed the fear in his heart, swallowed his saliva, and asked tentatively.

"Just take a look to the side and you'll understand."

Until now, he still had a little luck in his heart.

However, soon, this trace of luck was completely shattered because of the old man's answer.

After the old man looked around, his expression was still calm, and his tone was even slightly sullen, as if he felt that Uesugi Koji was trying to amuse him.

"Isn't it all normal?"

"Kuji Uesugi, what are you trying to say?"

"normal?"

Uesugi Koji showed a wry smile that was uglier than crying: "Haha, you can't see..."

"You don't understand, you don't understand anything!"

When the old man left the tomb just now, he didn't lift the stone slab at all, but directly passed through the ground and came before his eyes. That's definitely not the way a living person should act.

Uesugi Koji didn't want to stay in front of the old man anymore, and left under his frightened and puzzled eyes.

next.

This strong man found another Transcendent he knew.

"You! Even you..."

As a result, his heart sank to the bottom little by little, and despair gradually emerged.

‘Was it me, or the world? '

After being hit one after another, Uesugi Koji's mind began to distort in an abnormal direction. In other words, he... went crazy.

After guessing the truth in his heart, this poor Huijiao subconsciously escaped from reality and finally fell into madness.

He laughed sharply and shrillly when he met everyone, and shouted mockingly.

"Ghost! You are all ghosts!"

"We are all going to die...no one can escape!"

"Ha ha ha hee hee—"

In the end, the laughter was actually very similar to the clown he once regarded as a lunatic.

at this time.

The "survivors" in the silent cemetery can be roughly divided into two categories.

One is like that old senior, who didn't feel the slightest abnormality.

In their eyes, the surrounding scene has not changed at all, let alone the ghosts beside the tombstones.

The other category is similar to Uesugi Koji.

They noticed the change in the cemetery, and realized that the former group was different from themselves, so they were uneasy and panicked.

Some people who guessed the truth, like Koji Uesugi, inevitably went crazy.

*****

An Le, of course, does not belong to either of these two types of people.

At this time, he has joined Mrs. Cat.

The two of them had expected the sight of the ghosts walking in the daytime, but they were still surprised by it.

Mrs. Cat murmured, "What the hell... is this all about?"

"I'm afraid this cemetery will be restarted."

An Le expressed his inference.

"Restart?"

An Le's expression was solemn: "Simply put, everything in this cemetery is about to be reset, if you can't escape before then..."

He could feel that with the appearance of these ghosts, an extremely huge energy was gathering.

The nature of this energy is dead and cold, full of the breath of death.

It is not difficult to guess that this is the energy accumulated over the long years.

Perhaps, this is the meaning of the existence of the silent cemetery.

——It was created to collect this "energy" from a certain being.

And the two words that An Le uttered were like a secret key, prompting the initiation of the ritual and dedicating this energy.

Then, start the next cycle.

Hence the name "Restart."

The appearance of Hundred Ghosts Day Walk is probably only the first step, and there will definitely be continuous changes.

To be honest, this is different from An Le's original plan.

He originally wanted to take advantage of the washing away of the dead air at night to raise his physical fitness and [Lungs of Dead Qi] to the limit before preparing to leave.

Now, however, this is undoubtedly unrealistic.

Stay here for a second longer, and the situation will become more dangerous.

Moreover, Anle's escape method from "Journey to the Wasteland" has a high probability of losing its original effect.

That method is actually so simple that it couldn't be simpler.

As long as you don't enter the tomb and stay for a while, it will be considered "indigestible food" by the silent cemetery, and then it will be excreted.

This is Xin Qingyi's description——

[In my opinion, this secret place named "Silent Cemetery" is like a monster with endless desires. 】

[It greedily captures the unfortunate travelers on the wasteland, absorbs nutrients, enslaves souls, and snatches everything from them. 】

[But occasionally, it will also eat hard and weird "stones" like me, and after it is determined that it cannot be digested, it will expel me. 】

【This is the only correct way to escape. 】

【If I could have known this earlier, maybe Yiran wouldn't have...】

When reading the last sentence, An Le felt a little strange.

After all, in Xin Qingyi's previous records, it was clear that Yiran, a woman from the Rabbitman tribe, left the Silent Cemetery safely under the so-called "guidance". Why is she using such a regretful tone now?

But below, An Le quickly found the answer.

[By this time, I have understood the meaning of "don't enter the tomb" in the diary. 】

[That is really an important reminder. 】

【I can even imagine the despair in that extraordinary man's heart when he wrote this sentence. 】

[If you don't use that mysterious character to record, that paragraph of text will probably be automatically blocked by this cemetery, right? 】

There is a brief blank space in the text here.

The handwriting is even more scribbled.

It seems that Xin Qingyi's mood has been affected to a certain extent.

【I found... Yiran's tomb. 】

【It's not difficult to do this, as long as you go to the tomb where Yi Ran used to live, you can easily find out——she, in fact, never left. 】

[Those large and small tombstones contain mysterious power, which makes people subconsciously ignore the words on them. 】

[You need to overcome with strong willpower before you can recognize it. 】

At that time, An Le realized this only after seeing this sentence.

【I easily recognized that the tombstone said - "Yi Ran's Tomb", and behind it were all kinds of things she had buried in the cemetery. 】

[I was surprised at first, then puzzled. 】

【In order to test my conjecture, I dug up Yiran's grave. This action attracted the hostility of some "survivors" nearby, but I didn't care. 】

【And just as I thought, in the tomb, Yi Ran was lying there. 】

[She is still fragrant, small, and soft, but... she has lost her temperature and will never wake up again. 】

【Yi Ran, my Yi Ran...】

After that, it was Xin Qingyi's warning.

[If a latecomer gets this travel note and is "lucky" to be dragged into the Silent Graveyard—if you happen to be in the wasteland, then the probability of being recruited is about 100%! congratulations! 】

[In short, please remember this sentence——]

[Don't enter the tomb! Do not enter the tomb! Do not enter the tomb! 】

This is what An Le read yesterday. He knew the secret of this cemetery as early as that time.

The subsequent exploration of the huge tombstone was nothing more than a further verification of the idea.

Right now, it is obviously impossible to leave this place by being judged as "indigestible food".

But An Le thought of another way.

It might not work, but it's worth a try.

Or rather, had to try.

An Le walked to the nearest tombstone.

A ghost remained silent, but its eyes were fixed on An Le.

This is the effect of [Yin Yang Ghost Eye].

While allowing him to perceive ghosts more clearly, he is more likely to be watched by ghosts.

'excuse me. '

An Le said softly in her heart.

Then, he suddenly opened his eyes wide.

The gloomy secret power gathers in An Le's eyes, like two vortexes that are constantly rotating and full of attraction, black and white are clearly distinguished, and it seems that there are countless tiny creatures lurking in them.

Made Mrs. Cat and Xiao Mo on the side tremble slightly, subconsciously took two steps back, and stayed away from him.

Just the perception of that cold breath is enough to make ordinary people feel uncomfortable.

They couldn't help thinking: 'Mr. A, what do you want to do? '

However, instead of being frightened, Gan Xiang who was hiding next to An Le felt that... Big brother has become more cordial?

At this time, An Le was able to see...a more real world.

The dark gray breath spread all over the graveyard in front of him.

Almost every inch of the corner was dyed in this color.

Compared with the last time he "opened his eyes", the "ghost energy" is not only more widely distributed, but also thick and almost substantive, like a puddle of butter that cannot be melted.

With Anle's keen perception, when he was in it, he couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable.

And these numb and empty phantoms are the source of the "ghost energy"!

The moment An Le saw the ghost energy, the ghost beside him started to move.

The ghost's face was ferocious, and thick resentment overflowed, and it even let out a low growl.

He stretched out his hand, as if he wanted to grab An Le.

That was definitely not a touch with good intentions, but a movement like a beast tearing and gnawing.

Mrs. Cat exclaimed in a low voice.

As they walked along the way, although these ghosts were cold and terrifying, they were all like empty puppets, unable to move, and at most they just set their sights on Mr. A.

but now?

Seeing Mrs. Cat and Xiao Mo, An Le raised her arms and tapped her index finger on the ghost's forehead.

His body immediately froze, and then, it became illusory and distorted little by little.

In the end, like being captured by a black hole, it was sucked into An Le's fingers, and finally reached the mysterious eyes.

And when the ghost was about to disappear, the ferocity also dissipated.

Instead, there was a relieved smile.

He nodded slightly to An Le, as if expressing his gratitude.

At the same time, An Le's face turned pale.

The cold power wandered through his body, and finally stayed in his eyes.

But this feeling of wandering is really not pleasant, as if even the blood is about to be frozen.

[Ghost eyes can absorb the power of ghosts and turn them into their own use. 】

[But it is bound to be infected by ghost power. 】

[This is power, but also a curse. 】

[Maybe strong blood can temporarily overcome this infection? 】

[Most of the human beings who come into contact with ghosts die unexpectedly. This is a kind of fate and curse. 】

[Don't get close to ghosts, otherwise you will become unlucky. 】

Knowledge surged from An Le's mind.

He glanced at Gan Xiang behind him and thought to himself, "Unfortunate? I'm not a lucky person."

An Le once again looked at another ghost not far away.

At this time, he doesn't need to take the initiative to provoke, the other party will show resentment and jealousy towards the living, and show the intention of attacking.

But this one was far from the only one who made similar behaviors.

After feeling the aura belonging to the ghost eye, countless ghosts swarmed towards Anle like sharks smelling blood.

A wave of ghosts is sweeping across the entire silent cemetery!

This is the real...

Hundred ghosts walk in the daytime!

Thanks for the reward of 1500 coins from "Playing with Liu Mo Hua Qu"!

Thank you so much for your well wishes! thank you all!

Yesterday was Xianmiao's first birthday alone. Although it was a bit deserted, it felt good to have everyone's blessings!
