Meg has never seen anything like this before. She has been in an endless world for several years. This is an ordinary town, covering an area of less than five square kilometers. Its architectural style is not much different from the villages in the suburbs of London.
, the reason why I say "endless" is because Meg has tried to leave here many times, but no matter how far she moves, she will come to this town again after passing through an empty wilderness.
One thing that is very special here is that there is no one in the town. Even though the houses are spotless, even though the food storage areas always have fresh stocks, even though the sun rises and sets, there is wind and rain, there is not a single living thing.
, not even insects and ants.
Meg felt fear for the first time. She had witnessed countless cruel punishments in hell, and had even torn living people into pieces countless times with her own hands, but she had never felt the fear she felt at this moment. She understood...
My sense of existence is gradually disappearing.
Robert Neville in "I Am Legend" can still watch some DVDs to kill time, and he can still communicate with his pet dog on weekdays, and he still has hope. He will broadcast throughout the city every day and go to the same place to wait every day.
The appearance of another living person.
But Meg didn't have the slightest hope, and there were no entertainment facilities for her to entertain herself. She could only watch the sun rise and set numbly, calculating the date and time. Even such a cruel and cold-blooded devil, in the face of endless loneliness,
There is absolutely nothing that can be done.
Gradually, she could no longer calculate the date. How many days? Years? Centuries? What difference did it make to her? Every day's life was the same, and she didn't know how long she had been here.
, the demon's almost endless lifespan has become a double-edged sword at this moment. She was once glad that after becoming a demon, she would not have to suffer the ravages of time like humans, but now Meg began to envy the short life of humans.
Finally, one night at dusk, Meg decided to kill herself. She couldn't bear it anymore. Her body at this time was the same as before she became a demon. She was an ordinary-looking European woman. She walked into the kitchen of a certain house,
Pick up a knife and start cutting yourself.
At least the long-lost pain made her understand that she was still alive, but it was still difficult for her to die... When the life characteristics of this body disappeared, she turned into a thick black mist floating in the air. Originally, there was no life in this world.
There may have been a second body for her to stay in, but miraculously, the body that had been cut to pieces returned to its original appearance as if time had been turned back, and Meg was forcibly pulled in again.
She couldn't die, and she didn't return to hell after turning into black mist. She was imprisoned. This may be the most terrifying way of imprisonment, Mr. Cat's "lonely imprisonment".
Meg wanted to cry, but in the end she did not shed tears because when she was almost desperate, Wang Xu appeared in front of her.
"Then what... Master Cat asked me to ask you if you have thought it through. If you have thought it through, come out and talk to us. If you have thought it through, just stay and think about it." Wang Xu said in a not very friendly tone.
These words.
Meg didn't show any hostility, she didn't dare... In fact, she even wanted to go up and give Wang Xu a hug, but she still controlled herself: "Okay... I'll say it! I'll say anything! Whatever you ask me to do
It doesn’t matter! Please don’t leave me alone here again!”
Wang Xu looked puzzled: "Huh?" He thought maliciously in his heart: What did Master Mao do to her in this dimension in just a day or two... He actually said he could do anything... This
…
A few minutes later, Meg stood in front of Master Mao and Wang Xu. At this time, she was just a spirit body, and only those with psychic abilities could communicate with her.
Mr. Cat said unhurriedly: "You'd better not try to escape, don't try to play tricks, and don't do anything that makes me disgusted, otherwise you will know the result very well."
"Yes...yes..." Meg's eyes were filled with fear.
"Very good, I ask and you answer. The answer should be concise and clear. Do you understand?"
"clear……"
"Why is London surrounded by a barrier?"
"That is a barrier cast by a being far above heaven and hell, in order to prevent this city from being interfered by anything outside the human world."
"How could such a powerful barrier be cracked by an attack like Wang Xu's?"
Wang Xu interrupted: "Hey! What do you mean?"
Meg didn't dare to slack off, and regardless of Wang Xu's complaints, she rushed to say: "The barrier is mainly to prevent the power of heaven and hell. I think your ability is not the main object of resistance, so it has a miraculous effect."
Mr. Cat continued to ask: "Very good, then, you said that no external forces will be allowed to interfere, so why do you want to interfere?"
"A murderer."
Mr. Cat added: "This murderer... he has some kind of special mission, right?"
"Yes."
"What's the mission?"
"His blood sacrifice has already begun and will continue in the next period of time. This is a ritual. The purpose is..." Meg stopped here. Her expression was painful, but no sound came from her throat.
Can't send it out.
Master Mao's expression changed, and he remembered what Woody once said: "I can tell you, but...it is limited to you. This part of your knowledge and memory cannot be known even if the other party has the ability to read the memory. If
If you personally want to tell this concept to anyone subjectively, or express it in any form, you may be sanctioned by 'God', and then... no one can save you."
Mr. Mao previously knew that obtaining information through soul contact is very risky. A better assumption is that he can't read any memories. A bad assumption is that after reading it, God's sanction will come to him. Therefore,
He didn't risk reading Meg's memory directly.
Through this interview, he was able to confirm that it was not that Meg didn't know about Jack the Ripper's mission, but that she wanted to say it, but it was impossible to say it...
"Okay, you don't need to answer this question anymore. So, tell me, what is your purpose?"
Meg seemed to be relieved at this time, and suddenly she could speak again: "Originally, a demon of my level should not know this. I also learned this information accidentally. I thought, if I don't listen to Hell's orders and lurk here,
In this city, you can hunt countless souls in these few months, because neither heaven nor hell can interfere here during this period, so this became my restaurant alone."
Mr. Cat said: "Well... I think so... So, what happened when you went to the police station to report the crime that night?"
"I possessed John and tied up one of his beggar companions in the alley. I can't remember the man's name... Anyway, I set up a magic circle against King Solomon in the alley. As long as that person
I lured a group of policemen over, and when they untied the beggar, I triggered the curse mark in his body, so that I could get the souls of everyone present."
"Oh? But why did you fail?"
Meg said viciously: "Because that bastard Woody..."
"Hey... Is the Woody you're talking about the scheming man wearing glasses?" Cat interrupted.
"You know him?"
Master Mao's eyes flashed with a hint of haze: "Did I allow you to ask questions?"
Meg was immediately frightened and her spine trembled: "Yes...I'm sorry...that's the person you were talking about."
"Okay, keep talking."
"Woody took the beggar away and lifted my curse seal and magic circle. I only found out about this after the fact. When I first arrived in the alley, I didn't know why all the preparations I made were destroyed. For a moment, I thought
There was a hunter following me, and I felt that I wouldn't gain anything by staying, so I ran away."
"Hmm... very good." Master Mao's words meant that he had finished asking, and the subtext was: "You have no use value anymore."
Of course, Wang Xu knew Master Mao very well. He picked up a book at hand, cleared his throat, and started chanting in extremely poor Latin: "Exorcizamuste, omnisimmundusspiritussomnissatanicapotestas..."
This exorcism spell can send demons back to hell. Once low-level demons like Meg go back, they will be punished twice as harshly as last time. But at this moment, Meg feels that she can escape from these two
What a happy thing it is to be in the clutches of bitch, hell, what a beautiful place it is...
When she turned into black mist and flew underground, Master Cat said: "I can basically guess the purpose of Jack the Ripper's bloody feast."
Wang Xu asked: "Oh? But she didn't seem to say anything?"
Mr. Cat shook his head and sighed: "Hey... So I say that you, a history major, are really good at dawdling around."
Wang Xu said unhappily: "I study Chinese history! Can I specialize in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods? Is it okay if I am a 'White Specialist' (this title, or this hat was popular in the early days of liberation)?"
Cat Master said: "Xingxing... If ignorance is a sharp blade, you are the martial arts legend of Ten Thousand Swords Returning to the Clan... Well... I will explain it. In fact, this matter is related to a certain character who is about to be born on the European continent.
.On April 20, 1889, a person who would have a huge impact on the course of human history was about to be born. Whenever such a demonic figure comes to this world, there must be many signs, the nature of which is like the Bible.
Just like the 'apocalypse' in the movie, it is inevitable and cannot be stopped! Therefore, this blood sacrifice of Jack the Ripper is a ritual."
Wang Xu replied: "Oh...I see, then who is the character you are talking about?"
"You don't even know this..."
"Hmm...I don't know..."
"I won't answer you, and I'm going to say..."
Wang Xu interrupted him: "Okay... I will return to my clan with ten thousand swords..."
