Chapter 26: Bell of Hope
"Are you looking for me..."
The old voice also seemed to echo in Igna's mind.
And Derrick Berg, who just woke up from a nap, seemed very calm. He raised his hands and clenched them into fists in front of his chest, and then, while on high alert, slowly and half-turned his body.
The book in the room was a deep darkness, and in Derrick's eyes, a little golden light swelled, turning into two miniature suns.
It seems to be the original influence of the dream. At this moment, Igna seemed to have a clear vision, and the shadow became clear in his vision.
The black shadow revealed the head that was split vertically!
The two gray brains in the middle of the head were squirming as if they were alive. They wanted to get close to each other but could not do anything. On the cut-off surface of the brain, the viscous liquid hung down into filaments, but they contracted upwards like maggots.
The eyes on each side are far apart, the bridge of the nose is separated from the middle, and the blood is bright. The mouth on the left was split open, while the one on the right was tightly closed. This terrifying monster was naked, with dark red wounds on it.
The countless wounds slashed open, revealing a row of white teeth, causing them to say the same sentence in no particular order.
"Are you looking for me...?"
Derrick's pupils shrank for a moment, and without thinking, he placed his hands in front of his chest and raised them into fists, placing them on his chin, as if praying.
The small room suddenly became brighter, and a pure beam of light wrapped around flames fell from the roof and hit the monster.
This beam is not as powerful as when Derrick used it outside the round tower, because of the seal here, the magical items here isolate the inside and outside.
But at this moment, Derrick was stunned to see that the sacred light beam he had prayed for suddenly thickened, so bright that he couldn't help but want to close his eyes.
Vaguely, in the splendid beam of light, something purer and thicker was separated, like a light person without facial features and clothes.
The "light man" flickered suddenly and threw himself on the monster. All the "mouths" of the monster suddenly opened, as if they were making a shrill scream.
However, Derrick heard nothing.
The monster trembled violently, and quickly disintegrated in the burning and shining of the "light man", disappearing like a melt.
When it was almost transparent, a phantom suddenly appeared there, wearing a black classical robe and a phantom with a pointed soft hat.
This phantom has black eyes, black eyeballs, a wide forehead, a thin face, and wears a monocle made of crystal.
Just as he appeared, the "Light Man" exploded abruptly, and Derrick's eyes were filled with white light.
Ignat couldn't see anything either.
When he regained his sight, he found that he had been outside the room at some point, in the corridor inlaid with metal lamp stands, and in the dim yellow light.
Igna was a little dazed, how could it have changed?
In the room, he saw a tall and strong figure in dark trousers and a brown coat.
In front of the back, Derrick's original bed, a little morning light quickly condensed onto a white leg bone, turning it into a pure white sharp straight sword.
Next to Zhijian, lay a translucent worm.
With his back to his tall figure, he reached out and picked up the strange translucent bug, turned his body, and sighed, "Almost."
At this time, Igna finally saw clearly the front of the tall figure that suddenly appeared in the room
His hair was gray and neglected, and he looked quite messy. He had heavy nasolabial lines, no wrinkles around his eyes and forehead, and some deep or twisted old scars remained on his cheeks.
He was wearing a linen shirt inside, with a belt that was divided into many compartments around his waist. His light blue eyes were deep and vicissitudes of life, and his whole figure was like a book full of stories.
Derrick Berg immediately said, "Your Excellency, Chief." Note 1)
Igna also immediately identified the identity of the person who came.
Colin Iliad, the "Chief" of the "Six-Man Council" of the City of Silver of the "Deep Age", a powerful "Demon Hunter" who is over one hundred years old.
Colin nodded lightly to Derrick Berger and said, "We have always known that he has a problem, but in order to find out what the purpose of the man named Amon is and what kind of weirdness there is, he deliberately didn't get rid of him directly, but instead He was locked at the bottom of the round tower, sealed under the influence of magical items, and often let some Beyonders who only had signs of losing control live next door to him, and talked with him to see if he could induce some abnormal changes in him, so as to get Things we want to know. It's a pity that he was normal until today, but, so normal."
"Why do you think he suddenly mutated and suddenly tried to penetrate the seal? You feel that you are different from others." Colin Iliad asked.
Derrick was silent for a few seconds and said, "Maybe it's because my Beyonder pathway is different from others, Sequence 9 Singer, Sequence 8 Light Prayer."
Colin listened with his expression unchanged, looked Derrick up and down for a few seconds and said, "We have monitored him, and the members of the six-member council take turns in charge, but I didn't expect that he would suddenly change without any warning, and his actions were very unusual. Resolute, very resolute. What did you do in the room just now?"
Derrick pondered and said, "I knocked on that wall three times. Before this, the candle in my room went out, it was dark, and I tried to practice some of my Beyonder abilities."
Colin looked into Derrick's eyes quietly, and said after a dozen seconds, "Unfortunately, what Amon left in his soul is not the body, and it happened so suddenly that we didn't get the most desired result."
"Did you notice anything unusual before he mutated?" Colin asked.
"No." Derrick shook his head with certainty.
Two dark green complex symbols suddenly appeared in Colin's eyes, and Derrick's figure was reflected between them. After being silent for nearly ten seconds, the "chief" of the City of Silver closed his eyes and said, "Your condition has stabilized, no further treatment is needed, and you can go back."
Derrick was stunned and said, "Okay."
Igna was also a little stunned, and his intuition was a little wrong.
The leader of the explorer team whose body was broken just now should be an Extraordinary who was deeply parasitized by the Blasphemer Amon.
That captain's anomaly is beyond the range of ordinary people's recognition, and even he can realize that the team captain's sudden loss of control is not abnormal?
And didn't the "chief" say too much? There was not a lot of suspicion revealed in his words, and none of them were answered.
But, even if that's the case, the Chief actually let Derrick Berg go home? Isn't this a little unreasonable?
Igna raised his eyelids and looked at Michelle who was silent but his expression didn't seem to have changed much Yes, seeing Michelle's expression, Igna realized that, This is a narrated dream.
It should be reviewed before it can be shown to others.
By my side is a high-sequence powerhouse of the audience pathway. If he doesn't want me to know, there are 110,000 ways.
I'm just "the recorder".
Thinking of this, Igna calmed down, followed Derrick out of the dungeon spire and returned to his home.
When Derrick Berg returned home, he was very motivated to find things like monster leather, exotic herbs and so on. Quickly set up a simple altar.
He looked at the flickering candle in front of him, closed his eyes, lowered his head, and recited the honorable names of the ritual objects very familiarly.
"The fool who does not belong to this era, the mysterious ruler above the gray fog, the king of yellow and black who is in charge of good luck." Note 2)
