The halo faded, and the dilapidated and dilapidated outer walls of the longhouse reappeared.
Lu Li took the lantern and walked into the dark corridor without light.
Darkness swallowed his silhouette.
Walking through the uneven corridor with missing rooms and doors, stepping on the dark patches of debris and dust, weathered, solidified rainwater, and mud that covered the floor, Lu Li entered a detective agency without a door.
The wooden boards such as desks, bookcases, and beds had long been removed by the survivors to make fires, revealing the empty room in front of them. Apart from the outline, it was difficult to find memories of the past.
"It wasn't like this before, was it?" the Swamp Mother whispered.
"Um."
"You can put it back to the way it was."
"It's not necessary."
"This is necessary..." Swamp Mother didn't think so: "The land of light belongs to you and me, and the detective society will be visited and commemorated by future residents."
Lu Li's gaze fell on the broken flowerpot under the window sill, and he refused again.
The will of the Swamp Mother appeared in the camp in real time. Then the craftsmen left the school building and rushed to the Sailor Quarter under the escort of the Twisted Cultists.
Nothing excites them more than restoring the "Legendary Detective Agency". Even before Lu Li left the Sailor Block, they ran down from the camp out of breath.
Lu Li stayed temporarily to tell these excited craftsmen the shape, placement, and color of the furniture.
They began to clean the dirty floors, measure furniture, window frames and door frames. Even the Swamp Mother participated and helped them bring messages back to the camp for them to start production on the other side. Even the Weiner Dungeon was busy with the reconstruction of the detective agency.
, looking for matching furniture paint.
Buckets of blackened sewage were sent out of the longhouse and poured into the sewer. Those craftsmen who couldn't squeeze into the detective agency had to clean the corridor, other rooms or exterior walls.
The construction work in full swing seems to bring back the past.
The Twisted Shadow arrived soon after, but it had nothing to do with the renovation of the detective agency. He passed by and invited Lu Li to the shipwreck area.
The bat monsters in Silent Hill are still hovering in the sky, but there are fewer of them than in the past few days, and they turn a blind eye to the Twisted Order below.
However, the Twisted Shadow told Lu Li that they had taken away many prey that originally belonged to the camp.
Twenty minutes later, we arrived at the third-floor terrace of the restaurant overlooking the shipwreck area at Luli Station.
The old ships that fell into the neighborhood formed a steel forest, which is reminiscent of the stargazers of the old days. The weird people who live there don't like the light, and hide in sunken ships and houses to rest, and wait until nightfall before going out to hunt.
"There are many weird leaders in the shipwreck area." Twisted Shadow told the news that the believers had found out in the past two days.
"Is it too much to handle?"
"No, but it's very troublesome...I...I once asked the believers to test, and they have a clear understanding of what's going on in the outside world. Maybe they were once full of contradictions, but they have been united by the destruction of the Whirlpool."
Strange gods are stronger than pollution and growth, and weird leaders represent individual strength. Usually evil gods are stronger than weird leaders, but it is difficult to compare their true strength. Some strange gods have the power like "Tree Whisperer", and some weird leaders have the power like
He is a "dreamer".
"They come from the deep sea?" Lu Li asked.
"Yes...but I can't let them tremble under my power."
The Twisted Shadow, gifted by the God of the Deep Sea, is on the road to becoming the "New God of the Deep Sea", but after all, he is just a new god and cannot control the strangeness of the ocean.
"What if we add this."
Lu Li took out the Doomsday Apocalypse Book chess piece from his pocket and handed it to the twisted figure.
"Is this the power-increasing treasure you said you had?"
"Um."
"What will you do if I take it away..."
"It's just that nothing will happen for the time being."
Losing the Book of Doomsday Humanity will drop back to 0.5, but it only lasts for a few minutes or less, which is not a big problem.
The twisted shadow took over the doomsday revelation book, and then was shrouded in an obscure aura, formed at the foot of the sea, lifted it up, and floated to the shipwreck area. It stopped at the edge and released its aura wantonly, declaring its sovereignty. In a trance, it seemed to turn into the outline of a majestic statue.
On the other side, Lu Li's situation was worse than he imagined.
Lu Li, who has been under the increase of the Doomsday Apocalypse book, has also passively raised the threshold. When the increase disappears, the threshold will return to its original state.
Just like the ability to withstand the severe cold of minus 20 degrees, it became minus 40 degrees with the increase of the doomsday apocalypse book, but when the doomsday apocalypse was lost, the minus 20 degrees became unbearable for Lu Li.
For example, at this moment, in addition to physical weakness and lack of energy, the despair and isolation of a lack of humanity suddenly overwhelmed Lu Li's mind, wrapping him up and dragging him into an abyss-like mire...
If the Swamp Mother hadn't called upon the Twisted Shadow to return and return the Doomsday Apocalypse, Lu Li would have fallen into low sanity syndrome.
The strength of his body and mind reappeared, the delirium receded like a tide, and Lu Li's back became straight again.
"How did it turn out?"
Lu Li's body trembled slightly as he was still shaking from the aftertaste of terror.
"Perhaps we can induce some weirdos to join the Twisted Order." Twisted Shadow replied.
Next, the situation becomes much simpler: restore Lu Li's basic humanity to 1 copy, and then the Twisted Shadow can bring the Doomsday Apocalypse to bewitch the weirdness in the shipwreck area.
In order to save time, Twisted Figure asked the Twisted Cultists to spread out and search, preparing to personally hunt a strange leader so that Lu Li could recover.
Looking at the elm forest in the north, he seemed to be able to see the silent hills in the depths. Lu Li turned and left the terrace.
"Have you communicated the consciousness of the Ember Zone?"
On the way back, Lu Li, who was gradually recovering, asked the Mother of the Swamp.
"It is rejecting me and resisting the outside world. Giving it some time may help it relax."
"I will keep the Twisted Cultists away from the Ember Zone."
Lu Li went straight back to the camp without taking a long detour through Sailor Street.
A box of Exorcist badges brought back by the businessman Anthony is placed on the desk.
Lu Li opened the wooden box and revealed the stack of badges inside.
The badges carefully reproduced in the underground city are as complex and exquisite as works of art: on the edge of the silver-gray circular badge, spiderweb-like hollow lines overlap and converge, converging into the outline of an eye in the middle.
The copper color that condenses the eyes represents the badge level which is Exorcist.
Lu Li picked up the wooden box and walked outside.
"Are you going to give them badges now?" Swamp Mother asked strangely.
"Um."
"The awarding of badges should become a ceremony, which is an honor for them..."
The Mother of the Swamp stopped Lu Li from being direct and chose the date of awarding the badge as the day when the Land of Light was recovered.
In the evening, the Twisted Shadow and his followers returned, bringing with them the strange and dying leader.
It and other strange things in the slaughterhouse restored Lu Li's basic humanity to nearly three parts, and then the twisted figure took away the Doomsday Apocalypse.
Early the next morning, Lu Li went to the shipwreck area and passed by the sailor's block under construction. The longhouse was no longer dilapidated as it was yesterday, showing some traces of its past.
Maybe one day in the future, he and Anna can live here.
