The evidence that was taken to the police station, drove the police officers who came into contact crazy, and was eventually stolen by Richard: eyeballs, tentacles, flesh and blood, is the so-called "body of the ancient god".
Richard searched for a host everywhere, all he wanted was to resurrect the body of the ancient god and then replace it.
When the world collapsed, the exorcist had no time to take care of it. Originally, Richard had a chance to complete the plan perfectly.
However, Lu Li destroyed everything he had done.
Those hosts used as part of the plan to resurrect the ancient god's body were dealt with mercilessly by Lu Li.
Richard became furious because of this and warned Lu Li not to interfere in the matter anymore——
However, there is still some doubt.
What's wrong with Lu Li going through two completely different tests? Could it be that, as the old man said, Lu Li unknowingly participated in the "competition for the body of the ancient god" with Richard?
Lu Li asked about the body of the ancient god, but the old man knew very little about the deeper information. Everything was just what Richard had revealed.
"You can see your own and other people's bloody tentacles, where's mine?" Lu Li noticed some details.
"I can't feel it, and I can't see it." The old man shook his head slowly, and added: "You make me feel like that devil..."
Not only the old man, but also other bloody tentacles were unaware of Lu Li's approach.
Lu Li thought about the stairs extending downward. Is it related to what makes him different from other hosts?
If Lu Li is walking on the same path as Richard, his hostility and irritability will have a source - because Lu Li is his competitor.
The old man knew that he was limited and could no longer help Lu Li.
Lu Li would usually show no mercy to the host of the bloody tentacles. His purpose was to get rid of all the bloody tentacles and lure Richard to show up.
But the poor old man in front of him had just lost his two sons not long ago, and he was parasitized by the bloody tentacles and was about to die.
And he obviously didn't do anything.
This is the last bloody tentacle. If you get rid of it, Richard's plan will be completely destroyed. No matter what conspiracy he has next, it will be difficult to succeed. But it is also a problem that lies ahead: Will Lu Li sacrifice others for his own safety?
.
The answer is obvious.
"Richard may come into contact with you. Next, I will ask the Exorcists to follow you secretly."
Lu Li lowered his eyes slightly, landed on the tombstone under the dead tree, and said calmly.
"You won't kill me?" the old man asked in shock.
Anna's cold voice also sounded in the void beside her: "He is the last one. If you let him go, Richard may not show up."
Anna even suspected that this old man was deliberately arranged by Richard - think about it, what could be more painful to him than letting a kind man kill innocent people.
It's like what the guy from the madhouse did.
The old man was surprised by the third voice and kept quiet, watching Lu Li waiting for his answer.
Lu Li did not speak. He held the oil lamp and turned around to walk past the tombstones. The outlines under the light of the oil lamp gradually disappeared into the pale mist.
Silence enveloped him, and it seemed that only the old man was left in the entire cemetery.
He sighed softly, complex emotions written on his wrinkled face.
"Are you happy about this?" A cold female voice suddenly sounded, and where Lu Li was standing before, a figure in a white dress slowly appeared.
The old man opened his eyes slightly, and then showed a faint smile of relief: "So are you here to see me off?"
To deal with the last host represented by the old man, Richard will most likely appear on his own initiative.
But Anna knew clearly that Lu Li could not kill innocent people indiscriminately, even if his life was being threatened.
What is she going to do.
Even if Lu Li would hate him and be hostile to him.
She must do this, even if the other person is an innocent old man who has never made any mistakes.
There was no answer, and Anna acquiesced to the old man's inquiry.
"Can I ask you two things?" the old man asked, his cloudy eyes filled with relief and relaxation, as if Anna's decision was more acceptable to him than Lu Li.
"What's the matter?" Anna remained cold.
"Kill Richard and don't let him make any more mistakes."
"We will."
Even if the old man hadn't said anything, Anna would have killed the nasty guy who prevented them from reaching the Lennon Islands.
"Where's the other one?" Anna asked.
The old man's back suddenly straightened, his expression became solemn, he buttoned his coat, and meticulously smoothed out the wrinkles in his coat caused by shoveling soil.
Under Anna's gaze, he turned around and picked up the tombstone under the tree, stood it in front of the pit, put on the oil lamp, picked up the shovel, and clumsily stepped into the pit.
The oil lamp was placed next to his head, and the old man lay in the pit holding a shovel.
When there was silence, he spoke to Anna outside: "Please bury me, my child is still waiting for me underground."
…
After leaving the cemetery, Lu Li returned to the carriage.
"The last bloody tentacle is still there, and Richard may not appear on his own initiative. It is obvious that a host cannot allow Richard to complete his plan, and he will definitely take action to create a second bloody tentacle."
Lu Li, who was sitting in front of the car, said calmly, they now need to wait for new blood-colored tentacles to appear.
The voices dispersed and disappeared into the shrouding fog. A few seconds passed, and Anna's answer did not appear. The surroundings remained quiet.
"Anna?"
After a while, Lu Li spoke.
No one answered.
Suddenly, Lu Li, who seemed to realize something, raised his head and looked at the sky in the direction of the cemetery.
In the strange gray fog, the bloody tentacles hanging down from the clouds were gradually fading away, disappearing into the fog like phantoms.
Lowering his eyes, Lu Li looked at the fence gate of the cemetery.
Okay---
At some point, the silent counter slowly sounded.
Anna is back.
"I killed him."
Before Lu Li spoke, Anna from the other world took the initiative to speak. She did not show up, as if she did not dare to face Lu Li's upcoming accusation.
"I know."
Lu Li took the reins and said calmly: "Go back to the detective agency and wait. Richard will take action soon."
The expected accusation did not appear, which made Anna a little uneasy.
The wheels were rolling, and the crisp sound of horse hooves disturbed the silence, and they returned along the original road.
Lu Li's voice sounded at this moment: "Let's go buy books after this incident is over."
"What book?"
"The ones you like."
"Um……"
The strange fog seems to be difficult to disperse for the time being, but passers-by can already be seen on the street, and most of the shops are open.
Ten minutes later, while passing through an unfamiliar neighborhood, a figure suddenly ran past and crossed the carriage.
A letter tied with a stone hit the carriage accurately and landed next to Lu Li.
After a brief pause, the invisible Anna suddenly burst out with a cold aura. She had had enough of this annoying cat-and-mouse game, so she placed protection around Lu Li, turned into an invisible shadow, and chased after the fleeing figure.
At this time, Lu Li in the carriage picked up the envelope and opened the letter without stamps or seals.
