Rumors of Silent Hills have existed since ancient times.
At that time, the Elm Forest was still a cursed "forest of death". Faced with endless weirdness, the exorcists who were too stretched were unable to solve the low-risk weirdness in front of their homes, allowing the forest and the silent hills in the depths to exist.
The silent hills in rumors are usually related to well-known monsters. Some people say that vampires live there day and night, others say they saw werewolves walking through the woods, and the woodcutter who has the most say claims that it is just a place for hunting.
A tomb-like hill that people with unknown origins don’t want to go near.
The woodcutter was right, because the Silent Hills remained silent for more than twenty years after the end of the old days, until old Belfast became a place of light, and those giant bat monsters as big as houses came out of the hills and stood in hope.
The sky of the land lingers.
Then the unfounded guess came close to the answer: both bat monsters and vampires can be classified into the "bat" group.
Lu Li attended the afternoon tea of the Mother of the Swamp. Because in addition to Elena, there was also the awareness of the Ember Zone. In the previous exchange, the Mother of the Swamp told Lu Li to help the Ember Zone have its own identity, and then she could give it a name. She was always interested in spreading the news.
Human nature enjoys this endlessly.
Unexpectedly, Twisted Shadow returned to camp and participated in afternoon tea.
"The wreck area has been resolved."
The Twisted Shadow returns the Doomsday Apocalypse: "Catch one, transform one."
The two weird bosses with different treatment in front of the Immortal Wall were surrounded by twisted cultists and approached the camp.
One is crawling, and the other is wrapped in sea water.
The progress of Agate Lake Camp in regaining the Land of Hope has increased.
Now only the silent hills remain.
Lu Li put away the doomsday apocalypse and went to the slaughterhouse to harvest humanity. When he returned to the green lawn dotted with flower buds, even the consciousness in the Ember Zone felt his "beauty" and released a trace of kindness.
"10 servings?" Swamp Mother asked.
"Very close."
Tentacles floated out from under the gauze curtain of twisted shadow, and he cut cakes for his sister and placed them in front of her: "How do you plan to deal with Silent Hill?"
Lu Li then handed him the Doomsday Revelation Book: "Contact first, then bewitch."
If they could quietly dissolve the power that disintegrated Silent Hill, there was no reason for them to waste their strength fighting against it.
Moreover, bat monsters with air supremacy are good servants, which can help them better control and protect the land of light. When the mother of the swamp was still the old mother, she also had "bat monster" relatives. Unfortunately, she took refuge with the old mother after the division, and the old mother disappeared.
And completely died.
This time, Twisted Shadow brings his sister Elena with him. As the older sister, he wants to teach his sister the form of power of the supernatural god.
Lu Li passed by the Sailor Street and stopped at the detective agency for a while.
"You can move back if you like," Ophelia said, following the move.
"It's not the time yet."
They came to the shipwreck area. The damp and rusty steel forest was silent because of the disappearance of the strange things that lived in it. Only the twisted cultists searched the surroundings over and over again because of Lu Li's arrival.
Lu Li stopped in front of a cruise ship whose bow was inserted into the ruins. The holes leading to the cabin blew out a damp and smelly breeze.
Below is their nest. Although the nest is empty, Lu Li did not get into the narrow opening.
Such nests can be seen everywhere under dozens of fallen boats in the shipwreck area.
As in the Vortex, the real threat is gone, but the traces left behind still plague the land.
But this is not a problem.
The soil trembled and arched underfoot, and worms emerged from the ground, plowing through the broken streets under the instructions of the Swamp Mother, and their mouthparts touched the iron ship.
Unlike the comforting sound of digging into the rock and soil, swallowing the hull makes a harsh noise like a file rubbing against metal. The worm experiences some resistance, but it is only some resistance.
It ate away slowly but surely, wiping away the protruding areas of the earth like an eraser.
Andrea probably won't like this scene.
"Firolina said..."
The Swamp Mother then whispered gently: "The Lord of Silent Hill wants to see you."
It’s the same as the Ember Zone, but is the reason the same?
Swamp Mother asked Lu Li to wait for a moment, and her true form would come over.
"The presence of the Twisted Shadow is enough, the camp needs to be guarded."
"The family members and believers are enough to support us until we rush back."
Calling the remaining worms to come, and waiting for the Swamp Mother to appear, Lu Li walked through the silent shipwreck area and arrived at the burned-out elm block.
The dead elm forest jumped for joy when Lu Li arrived.
The Twisted Shadow landed and followed Lu Li deep into the elm forest surrounded by believers.
They approached the clearing where the silent hill was, and the lord prepared for their arrival: house-like bat monsters were arranged in a queue, standing at both ends of the new red carpet that was laid out at the feet, extending to the low buildings only slightly higher than them.
In front of the hill.
At the end of the red carpet, a portrait with a gold frame was placed on a throne.
The man in ancient aristocratic clothing in the oil painting slowly turned around and spread his arms.
At this time, the bat monsters spread out their thin wings that covered the sky, forming a high wall.
"The great Count Dracula welcomes guests!"
Neither the Swamp Mother nor the Twisted Shadow released their breath due to this trick, only Ophelia was a little wary.
Lu Li stopped when he met an "acquaintance".
"Mrs. Anlei Gallery?"
Lu Li remembered it.
The elegant middle-aged man smiled: "I didn't admit it wrong. It was you who the bat found that day. Oh, my old friend, twenty years have passed, and you are still the same as before, just like me."
Its words reminded Lu Li of his recent "attack" by a bat monster. Was that a misunderstanding?
"Are you the Lord of Silent Hill?"
Dracula nodded proudly: "They are my subjects, children, put them down."
The bat monster retracted its flesh wings, and the feeling of oppression disappeared.
"Where's your Miss Anna?"
Dracula still remembers the past, so he chooses to meet Lu Li instead of going to war.
"She's missing."
"That's great. I mean it's so sad."
Under Lu Li's calm dark eyes, Dracula hurriedly changed his words and turned his gaze to Lu Li's side.
"Evil God?"
"I am a strange god." Swamp Mother corrected.
"I know, I know, you humans always like to use words to classify likes, dislikes, closeness, and disgust."
The Swamp Mother did not correct this statement.
"Does that gathering place on the mountain belong to you? If I had known earlier that I would have been in contact with you, do you know that I was frightened when I saw you solving the whirlpool..."
After the meeting, Dracula quickly resumed his usual chatter.
Whether what is said is true or not is no longer important.
As expected, Silent Hills became allies.
Lu Li summoned the merchant Anthony and asked him to tell Mateus that the Land of Hope has been recovered."
For all the residents, this day was like living in a dream.
Just three days ago, they were still worried about the dispute between the Whirlpool and the Ember Zone, but now
They went from residents of Agate Lake Camp to residents of the Land of Light.
