Deep Sea Ember

Chapter 38 Offline

The

corpse was breathing, as if it had wandered around the edge of the realm of death, and then turned back to the world.

The black-robed cultists in the room watched this scene in a daze, some of them didn't even realize that the man in front of them had actually "died" once just now, because this moment of life and death rotation was so short that they couldn't even tell it without careful attention, they just felt that the aura of the dying "compatriots" in front of them suddenly became stable and powerful for some reason, which was extremely surprising.

The next second, the man lying on the ground opened his eyes.

He seemed to have been in the dark for so long that the oil lamps in the room were not bright enough to make him feel dazzling, he blinked his eyes to adjust to the light, and then his eyeballs slowly turned, as if he had just noticed the three black-robed men gathered around him.

"Thank you for the Lord's blessings!" A relatively young black-robed cultist finally reacted and couldn't help but praise excitedly, "You survived! I thought you would ......"

"Wait! Not true! Step back! The cultist with a low voice suddenly reacted to something, he stopped the movements of the others, and at the same time stared at the man who had just woken up with a vigilant look, and said in a threatening tone as he stepped back, "His breathing just now has completely stopped, I was absolutely not mistaken...... Something is not right!

Duncan finally adapted to the surrounding environment, and the tinnitus-like noise gradually faded from his mind, he saw the figures surrounding him clearly, and his first reaction in his heart was - why did he open his eyes or these people? Why is this still in the sauer?

Walking in the spiritual world should be random, and he was completely following his intuition when choosing a target, but he didn't expect that he would open his eyes twice and fall among these cultists.

But immediately afterwards, he sensed something was wrong from the reactions of those around him, and the next second, he noticed the black robe on his body.

Duncan was silent for two seconds, and his heart was already sudden.

The last time he was sacrificed by a cultist, and then he closed his eyes and opened his eyes, and now he is a "cultist".

He really has a fate with these people.

“…… Something is not right!

At this moment, a low voice full of hostility suddenly interrupted Duncan's confused state of mind after "awakening", he followed the sound and immediately met a cold gaze full of vigilance.

The owner of that line of sight was staring at him coldly, and beside him, the other two black-robed cultists also reacted with hindsight, and they all retreated to make a defensive posture.

Duncan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that he might be possessed by a corpse just like last time.

I am pretending to be a corpse in front of these cultists!

After figuring out the situation in front of him, the nervous reaction of these cultists also became logical, Duncan's mind worked quickly, he felt that the remaining numbness and dullness in this body had not completely dissipated, and now it was extremely inconvenient to move, it seemed not easy to do things under the nose of several cultists, so he could only find a way to stabilize these people first - and just as he was quickly looking for a way out, A little bit of fragmented vague memories suddenly appeared in his mind!

In that fragmented and vague memory, he suddenly "recalled" many fragments of his experience that did not belong to him - he remembered "himself" hiding in the sewers, remembered that "himself" offered his family's money to the messenger of the sun, remembered that "himself" participated in those dark, crazy and bloody rituals in order to heal diseases, and drank the blood of innocent people in exchange for the "blessing of the sun"......

At the end of a series of chaotic memories, he "saw" the scene of the sacrificial ceremony again, and saw many people in black robes like himself standing next to the high platform, and a young sacrifice was pushed onto the high platform, and the young sacrifice had a stiff and strange expression, causing the whole ceremony to fall into chaos......

He saw the "messenger of the sun" being sacrificed with a heart, everyone around the altar went into a frenzy, the cultists were killing each other, the raging flames overflowed from the sun totem, angry roars and nihilistic murmurs filled the assembly hall, and the original owner of his body and the last few remaining cultists fled in a hurry......

Duncan didn't know how long he had been sluggish, maybe it was only for a moment, and the surging strange memories in his mind calmed down again, and a sad and hateful life turned into a series of pale fragments, lying in his heart as if for people to read - like some kind of "nutrient".

This is the memory of the original owner of his body - although there are not many residues, the source is undoubted.

Duncan blinked, this was a change that had not happened during the last "spirit walk".

Last time, he failed to get any memory from the possessed corpse, and the brain of that "sacrifice" was only blank...... Why did this change happen this time?

Is it because the body he occupies this time is still very "fresh"? Or is it because the pigeon "Ay" strengthens the power of the brass compass?

Duncan slowly sat up from the ground, he knew that no matter what the reason behind this change was, it was not a good time to be in a daze, those nervous cultists had obviously realized that something was wrong with their "resurrection" process.

And with Duncan's movement to get up, the three cultists immediately took half a step back, and then the man in the black robe with a low voice pressed one hand on his waist to break the silence: "Don't move yet—tell me, what's your name?" ”

“…… "Ron," Duncan recalled briefly.He said the name he had just learned from his memory quite naturally, "Ron Stellan."

"His name is Ron." A young black-robed cultist on the opposite side immediately lowered his voice and said to the black-robed man with a low voice, who had faintly become the leader of the three.

However, the man in the black robe did not let his guard down at all, he just stared at Duncan intently, and then suddenly chanted in a strange syllable tone: "In the name of the sun, may the light of the Lord shine, and in the name of the sun, may the blessings of the Lord come!" Listening

to the sudden madness of the cultist on the opposite side, Duncan was stunned for a moment, and then felt a burning heat in his chest, he subconsciously reached out and took out the thing that was heating under his clothes, only to see that it was a golden sun talisman - bursts of eerie heat were coming from the surface of the talisman!

In the next second, the talisman suddenly ignited a raging flame, and the flames seemed to be full of malice, rushing towards Duncan's heart!

"The glory of the Lord is eating back at him!" Seeing this scene, the cultist who had just recited the prayer instantly reacted, he pulled out the dagger at his waist and shouted in his mouth at the same time, "His soul has been replaced!" Kill this heretic filth!

The

other two cultists' movements were obviously a little slower, but then they also reacted, and these people who thought Duncan was a "compatriot" a moment ago pulled out the daggers and daggers they carried with them without hesitation, and pounced on them with murderous intent while shouting loudly: "Kill him!!"

Duncan held the sun talisman that had begun to burn brightly, and watched three figures pounce towards him, and the next second, another shadow suddenly appeared on the edge of his sight!

A ghostly undead bird burning with green flames tore through the air, sweeping through the roof with cold flames, it let out a strange screech, and sprinkled invisible ashes and feather fragments in the flapping of its wings.

The three cultists were naturally attracted by this "undead bird", and they subconsciously raised their heads to glance at "Ai" who had transformed into a spirit form.

The next moment, all of their movements slowed down, as if the connection with the real world suddenly became distant and sluggish, and the figures of the three black-robed men pulled out overlapping afterimages in mid-air like a frame-by-frame animation of one by one, and they slowly landed on the ground with comically slow movements, and finally fell to a complete standstill at a distance of less than two meters in front of Duncan.

With great horror in their eyes, they watched the undead bird circle around the ceiling and then landed on the black-robed "compatriot" opposite, they saw that the sun amulet in the man's hand was still burning, but in the next second, those burning flames turned faint green, turning into the same form as the flames on the "undead bird".

Duncan pinched the solar talisman in his hand, the green spirit fire wrapped around the surface of the talisman, and the flames gushing out from the talisman circled in front of him for half a circle, then stopped peacefully like a pet, and slowly circled on his arm as if flattering.

Holding the sun talisman that had been completely occupied and transformed, he came to the three cultists unhurriedly, he looked into each other's frightened eyes, and his tone couldn't help but be filled with regret: "How good it is for you to pretend not to know anything."

In the next second, the figures of the three cultists suddenly flashed violently in mid-air a few times, and then disappeared.

The "undead bird" wrapped in green fire and like a skeleton bounced twice on Duncan's shoulder, and in the crackling sound of the flames, it let out a sharp and hoarse cry: "Oh, the page is missing, try refreshing it?"
