Chapter 776 What are you arguing about?

Cracks began to appear on the blurry mirror in front of Lu Chen. The surroundings were deathly silent, and various small sounds could be heard.

Tick-tock——

Tick-tock——

As if outside the bathroom, but also above his head, from the gradually shattering mirror, he could see drops of dark red blood dripping from the top of Lu Chen's head and spreading at his feet.

But Lu Chen knew that this was all false, at least in his direct perception, none of this existed.

He opened the door calmly and came to the corridor. There were gray walls on both sides of the corridor, and kerosene lamps hanging on the top that had not been lit for an unknown number of years.

He was currently standing outside the bathroom at the end, surrounded by a row of small doors, which were probably also bathrooms. As his line of sight extended forward, the separation between the rooms became longer. At the other end, it was about a hundred meters long. long.

According to the memory of its predecessor, this place was originally developed to be built as a hospital.

The Province of Noah is not a wealthy province in the Sistine Empire, and Jinkelan City is a city outside the fourth tier. It is impossible to imagine how poor the people in the lower city live without seeing it with your own eyes.

How could a large hospital be built in a place like this?

It was because there was a kind-hearted earl who cared about the plight of the poor in the lower city and wanted to open a welfare hospital. He invested a lot of money. However, when the building had just taken shape and had not yet been renovated and put into use, the earl of Enfes was found guilty of tax evasion and tax evasion. Caught smuggling goods.

The source of funding was cut off, so the unfinished building was put on hold and was not demolished. Due to a series of political reasons, it was left here for the time being. Although it had an imperial seal, there were always brave refugees who came in to take shelter from the wind and rain. .

Over time, it became a gathering place for refugees, and the dirty stench in the bathroom was left over from that time.

So why is the place where refugees once gathered so empty now?

In the memory of the original owner, a strange thing happened here five years ago.

It was a crisp morning. The law enforcement officers from Xiacheng District were patrolling as usual. They came to this abandoned building mainly to catch thieves, because one of the pickpockets stole things that they shouldn’t have stolen and got into trouble that they shouldn’t. people.

But what's strange is that this building is unprecedentedly quiet. Although the refugees are lazy people, there are a lot of commotions here every morning, mostly because they are fighting for the right to use the few washrooms.

The curious law enforcement officer entered the abandoned building and was horrified by what he saw.

Blood, blood everywhere, and countless severed limbs. Human heads rolled to the ground, and the fractures were rugged, as if they had been chewed off by some kind of animal.

He was so frightened that he took out the abandoned building. On the same day, rumors spread in Jinkelan City that an unknown presence had descended on the building, making everyone crazy.

They attack each other, gnawing at each other and even their own bodies like wild beasts, until everyone is incapacitated.

There were more than 700 refugees in total, but none of them survived.

The next day, the Morning Embrace Church's night watchman team came to the small town. After disposing of the bodies, the building was sealed again and no one was allowed to enter.

As for the inside story of the matter and what happened back then, the original owner, as a poor man living in Xiacheng District, naturally had no idea.

After understanding where he was and the general situation from the memory of the original owner, Lu Chen walked forward calmly.

He put on the shoes in his storage space and stepped on the dusty "cement floor", leaving footprints one after another, and the sound of footsteps echoed slightly in the empty corridor.

"Yigu LSass..."

Noisy, cold, and crazy whispers echoed in Lu Chen's ears, and the sounds gradually amplified.

In Lu Chen's surface field of vision, the kerosene lamps at the top of the corridor were lighting up one by one. There was obviously no fuel and no open flame to light, but they ignited a flame.

It is not a bright yellow fire that makes people feel warm, but a dark red light, like a pair of eyes staring at you in the dim corridor.

Every time Lu Chen took a step, the scene in his surface field of vision would change. Inexplicable whispers echoed in his ears, as if they were trying to contaminate people's minds. A thick layer of plasma appeared on the ground, and the walls on both sides and The dome was dripping with sticky blood.

Walking to the middle of the corridor, you can clearly see the plasma covering the walls. It seems that something is growing in the plasma. A pair of arms as thick as chopsticks poke out from it, as if trying to break free from the shackles of the sea of ​​blood.

Puff puff--

The sound of bubbles bursting was heard. In the thick plasma, the bubbles swelled like faces. Each face had a different appearance, but all had a painful and crazy expression. The mouths were opened wide as if to breathe air, but But there was a rustling noise.

This is what is seen in the surface field of vision, and under the influence of Lu Chen's martial arts eyes, this building is no different from the scene at the beginning.

When he reached the end of the corridor and the corner of the stairs, there was a scraping sound behind him. Lu Chen turned around slowly and saw a figure that was more than ten feet tall emerging from the ground.

The shadow twisted and changed, with countless bloody tentacles extending on it, linked to the surrounding walls, like a spider's nest, and the body in the center was just an oval, something like a face, which seemed to be moving with Breathing, there are baby arms stretching and contracting.

It had no mouth or nose, but it exuded inexplicable whispers. A crazy will swept through the corridor, and its flesh opened a crack, revealing a milky white eye with no pupils, staring closely at Lu Chen.

It is the incarnation of the unknown, weird, fearful, and an existence that mortals cannot look directly at.

It walks the world spreading fear and madness.

The only white pupil looked at the slum man at the end of the corridor, ready to enjoy the human fear emotion that he had not tasted for a long time.

But the man in front of him was very strange. He had been killed by it once, so why was he resurrected again?

Did he hear the will of "God" and come to this warm world again?

What's even more strange is that it doesn't feel the unique fluctuations on its body, but the man is unusually calm.

I tortured myself to death in the bathroom before...

Lu Chen looked at the "creature" in front of him and opened his martial arts eyes to observe it with great interest.

[Crazy communicator. Lanis]

The weirdness is intangible. It was born from the will of the old gods to remain in the world and absorb people's various emotions.

…

Little Chic was quite a thing. Through some of its skills and characteristics, Lu Chen had a better understanding of the world. I am afraid that this creature was the one that caused the disaster in the abandoned building back then.

The night watchmen of the Church of Morning Embrace should be some extraordinary beings who killed Lanis through special means. However, in this downtown area with difficult living conditions, it is too easy to absorb people's negative emotions, so it was "resurrected" again. .

A more correct statement is that Lanis is not dead at all, because the weirdness is immortal, at least to the group of Night's Watch who came to deal with the incident.

The scene in the corridor was becoming more and more weird and terrifying at this time, but in Lu Chen's martial arts eyes, it was still ordinary. Even the image of Lanis was not what ordinary people saw, it was just a gray air ball in his eyes.

Obviously, Lanis used fear mongering to erode the man's mind and want to see the man's crazy expression.

But the man didn't. He just slowly took out the Duke of Killing and put it on under the strange and incomprehensible eyes. He put his arms through the sleeves, adjusted the collar, and then took out a simple dark red ring and put it on the ring finger of his left hand.

Lu Chen didn't rush to take action. He put on the two pieces of equipment, his charm attribute instantly returned to zero, and the fear aura of the Duke of Killing's Blood Fiend skill was passively activated.

Lanis instantly felt that after the man put on his clothes, his whole demeanor changed, like an abyss, and he was staring at him.

The dark red evil spirit, which was almost condensed into substance, spread like a shadow on the man's body, gradually dominating the entire space.

Next, it saw the man grinning in the direction where he was, showing a set of straight white teeth, showing a cold air.

Weird people usually have no thoughts and just do things mechanically following the will of the ancient gods, but this time Lanis felt something called emotion for the first time, and that emotion was called... fear.

Lu Chen walked leisurely along the way he came. Regicide appeared in his hands, but the monster in the center of the corridor was retreating.

Lanis himself didn't know why he was retreating, but he instinctively wanted to run away.

The man walked up to Weird and looked up at Weird hanging in the air. His red eyes were like boiling magma, but there was cold murderous intent in the heat. He smiled and said lightly, "Why do you?"

Lanis was puzzled. It just continued to retreat subconsciously, but the movement finally stopped.

The dark blade cut across the dense will, and the pure intention of the blade pointed directly at the source.

Lu Chen turned around, straightened his collar, put away his knife and walked towards the stairs. As he went downstairs, he said the second half of the sentence, "...more charming than me."

This building has a total of five floors. Lu Chen was on the top floor and went all the way down to the bottom. He pushed open the locked door, closed it hard, and tightened the lock cylinder.

It was dark outside, and it was already five or six o'clock. In the early winter season, at this time, many people in the upper city area had already got off work and returned home to keep warm.

Lu Chen exhaled a mouthful of white mist and looked at the gray sky in the distance and the ancient city that started to light up.

Similar to the Gothic architectural style of the European Middle Ages, the buildings in the upper city rise and fall unevenly. The tallest building can be seen at the highest point in the center of the city. The rugged and slender towers are like flags stuck on the slope of the top of the building. The overall It gives people a solemn and sacred feeling.

That's Kingland Cathedral, affiliated with the Morning Embrace Church.

As far as the immediate field of vision could be seen, there was a mess. Lu Chen wanted to get out and take a breath of fresh air, but the stench still filled his nose.

Dumb——dumb——

A rough and hoarse voice sounded above Lu Chen's head as two crows streaked across the sky. As the sun went down, the shadow of the abandoned building behind him became longer and longer, covering Lu Chen in the shadow.

On the street not far away, Lu Chen could see all kinds of excrement everywhere. It was not from animals, but from humans.

This is Xiacheng District, which is dirty, chaotic, and poor. When people’s food and clothing become a problem, their quality is forgotten.

Lu Chen thought for a moment, then took steps to prepare to "go home"

Yes, his current original owner still has a place to live and a family, otherwise a mentally unstable person like him would never be alive today.

I don’t know if it was a coincidence, or the space used its power to overlap the original owner’s name with mine. In the common language of this continent, the original owner’s name was also called Lu Chen.

And he also has a sister who is one year older than him, named Lu Lin.

Lu Chen was surprised when he first saw this information.

He originally thought this was a Western continent, but there were still Easterners like him with black hair and eyes.

After carefully checking the details in the original owner's memory, Lu Chen roughly learned about the Sistine Empire. It was a huge empire with various cultures and races.

White people, yellow people, and even black people all live in the country.

It is no longer clear how these different ethnic groups, who still have certain differences in their living habits and cultural habits, came together in one country to live in peace and friendship.

Now is the third era, and the events of the first and second eras have long since become dust. Legend has it that in the previous era, the east returned to the east, the west returned to the west, and there were many kingdoms.

But by the Third Age, the past history had turned into dust, and there were only two empires left on the continent, the Sistine Empire, which was dominated by theocracy, and the Kingdom of Steam and Machinery, which arose one hundred and fifty years ago.

The "Lu Chen" siblings lived in Xiacheng District, mainly to treat "Lu Chen" with medical treatment. They spent so much money that they had no money left to rent a house in Shangcheng District.

In fact, the original owner's sister, Lu Lin, is a top student who graduated from the public seminary in Noah's Province. Now she works as a clerk in a trading company in the upper city. The salary is not high, but it is not so high that she can only rent a house in the lower city.

It is said that an eldest sister is like a mother. After the catastrophe, the originally middle-class family only had two children left, one of whom was mentally ill. It was not easy for Lu Lin to raise the original "Lu Chen".
