The Modern Age of the Mysterious

Chapter 81: Long Lost "Erx"

The soul-seeking incense slowly drifts indoors, and it also has a calming effect on people.

The blue smoke outlines the shape of a female soul on Maggie's wreckage that has not yet dissipated.

The "body" of the evil spirit is the proliferation of resentment. After the evil spirit is dispelled, the spirit body is freed from this layer of **** as if it were separated from the body.

Catherine closed her eyes, relied on the incense as a bond, and began to watch Maggie's memories...

The time to trace the soul is extraordinarily long. The three of Sean, who were on guard, never found any threat—everything went smoothly.

He looked back to see Catherine's condition, but saw that under the mask of the blood-stained maid, tears seemed to flow out.

That Katherine Haley, who has always been strong, actually cried?

Sean's face was even more surprised than seeing an angel: what did Catherine see in Maggie's memory?

After another ten minutes, Sean heard Catherine groaning—the soul tracing was over.

He quickly walked to Catherine's side and asked, "Why are you crying? What did you see?"

Catherine waved her hand: "This matter, we'll talk about it after the mission."

She raised her voice a little, but her voice was still a little tired: "We got one thing wrong."

The three of them looked at the captain, and Catherine began to tell what she saw...

She dived into Maggie's memory and saw many scenes that could make ordinary people nervous.

She saw the many evil deeds committed by Finks' subordinates, but she had never been able to see the scene of them stealing the organs of gang members.

Just when she was about to give up, she saw Maggie in the most lively part of Undercurrent Street, and saw a living figure.

Catherine had a deep impression on the living person—because it was the one with the most appalling corpse image in the autopsy report given by Bill.

Former gang member - "Black Bullet" Chatillon Newgain.

At that time, Maggie coveted the fresh body and soul, so she kept her eyes fixed on Chatillon.

Catherine could see that Chatillon was not hypnotized at the time, because his body movements looked nervous, but his eyes were staring at him, clearly a little nervous.

Moreover, in front of him was a "guide" of the undercurrent street.

Normally, the evil spirits would not attack the human beings brought by the "guide", because they must have been invited by a high-ranking evil spirit, or even a fallen person.

Catherine saw in Maggie's vision that the guide took Chatillon into the "Brimstone Tavern".

After a long time, Maggie saw Chatillon walking out of the tavern.

His walking posture was crazy, as if he was lost. Having lost his eyeballs, he had to put his hands on the guide's shoulders and walked back to Thirteenth Avenue...

"They entered the Undercurrent Street voluntarily?!" Sean's voice was a little louder in surprise.

Catherine nodded slowly: "Although it sounds ridiculous, it's true.

"Although we took some detours, we know the murderer who stole the organs, right at the Brimstone Tavern..."

In the moonlight on the side, he saw Henry flicking the playing cards in his hand with his fingers. Shen Sheng said: "Then what are you waiting for, let's go directly to the tavern to find the murderer. Finish things early and leave here early. I really don't want to stay in this ghost place."

After all, there is only Jack class, Henry's spirit seems to have stretched to the limit.

Purifying Maggie's soul will cause fluctuations in the spiritual ring. This kind of power as mysterious as fate will disturb all the evil things in Wannu Cave, including Finx.

So Catherine did not purify, but just let Maggie's soul stay in the room - not long after, she will slowly degenerate into a resentful spirit because of her previous resentment, but before that, the evil spirits in Wannu Cave did not will find your own line.

Catherine sorted out her emotions, inhaled some smelling salts, then got up and continued to lead the three of them out.

Walking and stopping in Wannu Cave, Sean found that Catherine's state was not the same as before - she became more silent and determined.

Sean couldn't help but be a little curious: "Apart from Chatillon's whereabouts, what did he see in Maggie's memory? Why can't he tell me after the mission?"

The speed of leaving was much faster than the aimless exploration at the beginning. They soon returned to the gate of the "big factory", and once again walked into the wasteland filled with dense fog and rammed bones.

After getting outside, Catherine returned to her "Bloody Lisa" state, continued to shake the soul bell, and led the three "goods" to the depths of the thick fog - this would not attract too much attention, acquiring souls. It is not uncommon to be at odds with the price of the flesh.

On the way back to the downtown area, they encountered those bright-eyed unknowns swimming in the fog, like piranha fish in the deep sea. The four stopped.

Strangely, those eyes that were like bright lights in the fog actually stopped.

Then, it ran away quickly in the direction it came from.

Catherine stopped rattling the bell, and made the gesture of stop and concealment. The surroundings fell silent, and the three explorers looked at the captain in confusion.

Catherine turned her head back, her movements were obviously a little nervous. Before she could speak, the three of them had already heard a voice.

The sound of footsteps as heavy as ramming the ground, and a chaotic murmur.

Catherine suppressed her voice to the lowest level: "Lost for a long time, "Elkes"!

"Don't let him find us!"

The four of them lowered their bodies, as if they were lying on the ground, their spiritual power, limbs, and breathing were all condensed to the extreme.

In the distance, Sean saw a mass of wanton burning black flames rolling in. Those flames burned through the mist. Among the flames that were constantly changing shape, he could see a tall male figure walking step by step.

"That's Elkes, an existence close to the evil god?"

As if being covered by the shadow of the dark clouds in the sky, Sean suddenly found that his senses seemed to be suppressed. Apart from shadows and depression, he couldn't feel much.

In the gloom, he saw the tall Erkes walking slowly on the wasteland, with countless dark green tentacles dragging behind him, entangled and wriggling, like countless pythons following, and it also seemed to have vitality long hair.

In his mouth, he kept chanting crazy ravings, as if analyzing all the origins and destinations of this complex world.

Sean remembered his description: Erkes had been walking and thinking in the undercurrent street without stopping.

Suddenly, the existence that Shawn and the others could never reach, Erkes, who almost never stopped, actually stopped in the thick fog not far away.

He slowly turned his head, and on the chaotic black face, the white hole-like eyes glanced at Sean.

The meaning in those eyes was extremely complex and profound. In this unexpected moment of looking at each other, Sean suddenly felt a sense of loneliness, depression, and nothing made sense.

For a moment, he felt that life was a fallacy.

Sean suddenly realized that Erkes was looking at his "God root".

At the moment of eye contact, Sean actually understood Erx's old ravings:

"The calamity, the variable...appeared here...maybe herald the opening of the next era?"

For a moment, Sean was worried that the ancient existence in front of him would covet the secrets in his soul.

However, he found that Erkes was just a passerby, or a witness. Although he saw something, he just observed it quietly, without any thoughts or actions to interfere. After a while, he moved on.

It took about five minutes after the Long Lost One left before the team members dared to take a deep breath.

Catherine turned around and said in confusion, "He seems to have seen us?

"This doesn't match the description~www.NovelMTL.com~ In all the sighting reports, if you don't provoke him, he ignores everything around him..."

Catherine said to herself: "In the subsequent mission report, be sure to write this down, maybe it means that there will be any changes in "Elkes"..."

Only Sean knew why the lost person stopped and looked at himself, but he didn't need to explain, so he kept silent.

"He just mentioned divine calamity, variables, etc..." Sean thought a little in a trance, "What does "God's root" symbolize? "

No matter what it symbolizes, Sean already knows that it's a powerful thing.

Those who are so powerful that angels covet them, and those who are so powerful that they are close to evil gods will stop and look at themselves.

"Having the root of God... is it a good thing," Sean said with an imperceptible wry smile on the corner of his mouth, "or is it a bad thing?"

In order to be farther away from Erx and avoid other variables, Catherine let the team stay in the thick fog for five minutes before moving on.

Not long after, I finally walked out of this foggy wasteland. In front of me, I could already see the undercurrent street block with neon flashing, full of sewage and stench.

Ahead, Catherine, who was shaking the soul bell, was suddenly stunned.

"What's wrong?" Sean asked in a low voice, and he followed Catherine's line of sight and looked up.

The fog became clear ahead. About ten meters ahead, there was an evil spirit wearing a blood-stained maid's mask, his clothes were rotten, and his skin was stained with corpses.

She also held a soul bell in her hand. If it wasn't for a demented man behind her who was completely different from Sean and the others, it would make people mistakenly think that there was a mirror on the street.

They meet the real "Bloody Lisa" head-on.
