0198 Chapter 4 The End of the Ordinary (Section 69)
Mbabane. Three hundred meters underground, built in a nuclear defense base under the mountain.
The President stared solemnly at the picture transmitted from the ground. It is located on the earth almost diagonally from the central part of North America [original image]. This is almost the last area to be affected by "darkness".
Because of this, he obtained far more detailed intelligence information than most countries. However, all this information was so bizarre and beyond human understanding that he had no idea which parts of it he could trust.
Distortion, mutation, pollution, and monster are the words that appear most frequently in all reports. But unfortunately, under the influence of the Severnte family that controls the entire African continent, his country's technology is quite advanced, but it has almost no involvement in the field of occultism.
Research.
For the president who grew up with an education in natural sciences, the situation he faced was puzzling. Although he was in a high position enough to know that there was extraordinary existence in the world, he had never had the opportunity to truly understand the world hidden in the world.
The realm of darkness.
At this moment, for the first time in his life, he saw with his own eyes a world that he had never been exposed to before.
Darkness fell, as if there was an ordinary tsunami storm at the end of the horizon, and the darkness came over like a heavy cloud.
But that is not a cloud, but pure darkness, which is invisible. I have no idea what is inside, and I don’t know what will happen after being swallowed.
The unknown is the ultimate fear.
The president spent the longest five minutes of his life. He could not issue a single order because he did not know what to do to save the people on the earth, and what to do would cause them to suffer a more tragic fate.
Five minutes later, the light disappeared. The entire underground foundation was immediately lit by an independent power system. To the president's delight, he tried to issue an order to keep street lights on across the country, and it actually took effect!
Although the darkness seemed absolute from the outside, without any light and invisible. But after being swallowed, he found that the darkness was more like a boundary than an absolute state, dividing the inside and outside.
differentiate.
When you are in darkness, the light lit by people can illuminate, just like bonfires and lights in the dark night.
It's just that these lights are not as clear and transparent as usual nights, but are accompanied by a faint halo, as if covered with a thick layer of fog.
People on the surface lit bonfires in desperation, turned on flashlights, and used mobile phones to illuminate... No matter what the color of these lights, they all became gray and cold, like a game screen with a filter, giving people a feeling... like an ancient corpse.
General feeling.
Then, the president saw people on the street beginning to struggle painfully under the lights.
The muscles of some of their limbs gradually atrophied and they collapsed on the ground unable to move; some of them expanded like balloons, emitting dark green gas from every hole in their bodies while floating around uncontrollably;
Some have bloody holes on their backs, with third, fourth, and fifth eyes opening from them, and every inch of skin is sprouting fine granules; some have whole bodies that are melting like burned out candles.
, from hair to skin, from muscles to internal organs, puddles flowed on the road, and finally became a walking skeleton...
Staring at the pictures on the screen, the president's eyes were splitting. He yelled crazily and collapsed hysterically. He was willing to do anything to save his people. He... no, he just feels very hungry now...
On the outskirts of a metropolitan city, more than thirty students in a church school knelt devoutly on their seats, clasped their hands and prayed. Until darkness fell, no one stood up or opened their eyes.
After the darkness lasted for a long time, the lights in the classroom suddenly turned on. The older Indian male teacher reluctantly showed a kind smile and said to his students:
"Look, children. The darkness will pass, and God will protect us from harm."
"But... I saw with my own eyes the classmates in the next class turned into monsters," a girl sobbed and cried: "Teacher Langwei, are we really safe?"
"Of course, my child. You stay here and keep quiet. I will go out and see what's going on outside. As long as you keep your faith in the Lord..."
boom!
A gunshot interrupted the old teacher's words like a mockery. A window and one of the two overhead lights in the classroom shattered, and the students screamed and became a mess.
"Please stop! This is a school, and there are only a group of students here! No matter what you are looking for, please go to other places to look for it. There is nothing you are looking for here!" The Indian teacher named Wolf Tail stood in front of the students and said
shouted out the window.
boom!
What answered him was another gunshot. The last ceiling lamp in the classroom shattered to the ground, and a lot of glass shards hit the students' heads directly. The classroom that had just returned to light was plunged into deep darkness again in an instant.
.
"May the Lord forgive your atrocities! The end is coming. Are you unwilling to let us lambs stay here and embrace the final peace no matter what?" The Indian teacher named Wolf Tail was a little anxious and rushed to the window to speak to the outside world.
shouted loudly.
"No! I saw it! The person outside is not a villain, it's Mr. Epilens!" Among the students, a young boy shouted excitedly.
"Shh! It's me," the old voice outside responded, already very close to the classroom window: "If you are exposed to the light, terrible things will happen, but if you stay in the dark, you will be safe for the time being. I have seen it on the way here.
It’s a lot of tragedy.”
Hearing the familiar voice, Wolf Tail said in surprise: "It's really you! Mr. Epilens! Are you sent by God to save us?"
This question made Detective Epilens stunned for a moment, and then he smiled bitterly and said: "Please don't talk to me about issues of faith. I have encountered some bizarre things recently, which made me determined to keep a distance from all religions, at least for the time being.
But you are right, Wolf Tail. I am here to save you. Stop emitting light and stay dark. This will at least ensure that you will not undergo any distortions.
As for those children who have turned into monsters because of the light, give me some time and I will find a solution."
…
The ruins of Scarry Castle.
Navis reluctantly climbed up from the ground. The dark world left her a little confused. She felt that at least a dozen bones around her body were broken, but fortunately, the severe pain was not enough to affect her slowness.
move ground.
Since the ground suddenly rose, she was hit hard on the dome of the ruins and completely lost consciousness. She didn't know what happened next, and she couldn't understand how she came to the ground alive.
What is despairing is that there is deathly silence all around, corpses are everywhere, but there is no one alive who can make a sound or light. Navis cannot surrender even if he wants to, and the severity of his injuries is obviously not enough to survive.
how long.
If she couldn't get treatment as soon as possible, Navis knew that she was dead. She immediately thought of the underground base of Scarry Castle that Zhen Cheng had mentioned.
If there is a way to find it, there may be a chance to save himself. Navis knows that each of the three major families has some medical methods that outsiders cannot detect.
At this time, she noticed a dim light dozens of meters away that was particularly dazzling.
