The child was crying and hiding in her mother's arms, and she did not dare to raise her head.
But except for this church, which is slightly illuminated by black-gray flames, there is no place nearby that can hide from those terrifying mutants.
Everyone around looked at this scene with a kind of numbness and unbearable expression.
Every once in a while, someone will experience such a scenario of being selected to receive a ‘blessing’.
And those people.
after.
Never came back.
"They used the desecrated churches to corral those who survived."
Croshan was wearing an open white lab coat, leaning on the passenger seat of the heavy truck in a leisurely sitting posture, recalling the news she had just inquired about.
While holding the coffee stick in her mouth, she continued angrily:
"I can only say that these cultists who hinder the progress of civilization are really stupid.
Even to the other shore established by the drifters in the real world.
The hostility toward the evangelical church is still so strong."
Hear her say that.
Su Wen said calmly:
“Evangelical churches do indeed provide blessings, but there is an ‘essential’ difference between the gods of orthodox religions and cults.
The gap between them.
Even greater than the difference between the Deep Sea Polyps and the Starry Sky Dragons.
But the records about the First Age are probably vague even in the Great Library. In other words, those cultists also have things that they cannot understand and are afraid of.
at the same time.
That would also be their most foolish weakness."
The black steel heavy truck drove along the winding mountain road to the highest point.
We can finally see the scenery in the distance.
In the cab.
Su Wen stared intently at the road ahead, and every move he made seemed rigorous and professional.
His face was angular and sharp, illuminated by the swaying gas lights in the car window, and his eyes were like stars in the night, firm and deep.
Looking into the distance from the high mountain position, a vast steampunk world spread out before their eyes.
The prosperity and darkness of the Royal Capital of the Kingdom of Eternal Night are intertwined, forming a strange picture.
The towering mechanical device looks even bigger in the night, like a giant beast from a science fiction movie, standing quietly in the night sky.
In the world of steampunk, perhaps this is the only place where many gas lights still remain. They are dotted in the city like stars. Each light is like a burning heart, giving this eternal night city a sense of security.
life.
As a country girl, Shelly had only come here twice with her father during celebrations.
But when she slowly matched her memories to the scene in front of her, she still couldn't help but feel a little sad:
"I still remember how beautiful this place used to be.
The light connects into an ocean and illuminates every street, but now."
But before she could finish speaking.
Su Wen's calm and confident words immediately sounded:
"It will be restored to its former glory.
I said.
And Shelly, you will be a hero too."
On the outskirts of the Kingdom of Eternal Night, which had become ruins of steam machinery, he parked the car silently and then motioned for the two of them to get out of the car.
The bodies around them were covered with purple pustules and their eyes were bloodshot. Infected bodies rushed towards them like dogs smelling meat.
But Su Wen didn't feel anything.
He gently touched the entire huge heavy truck with the fingers of his right hand.
In an instant, this huge metal machine began to disintegrate and collapse like a fluid, and was then stored in a storage box by him.
The whole scene is as magical as a science fiction movie.
Immediately afterwards, he put the lantern aside and began to search for a way to enter by comparing the previous information room in Signault Province with the life laboratory in Marion-Kaffar's memory.
At the same time, the surrounding infected bodies were silently wiped away by the scalpel in Croshan's hand.
"The church not far away should be our best choice."
He put on black gloves like a gentleman, and put on the black hood behind the windbreaker on his head with graceful movements.
Then he also threw two black cloaks to Croshan and Shelly.
From now on.
His layout will gradually emerge:
"Stealing and desecrating a church that was once a place of faith actually has another benefit.
This is a great place to be:
【altar】
but me.
Just happen to have some ‘knowledge’ above what they can comprehend.”
[Mist Card ‘The Rumblings of the Great Sleeper’ (Level 4)]
[You have discovered the side activity of "Opening up the Lost Sea": collecting decks and finding treasures]
[Mist Card ‘The Great Sleeper’s Whispers’ card effect: (Can pull all living beings in a limited area into the abyss of sleep]
[Belongs to the treasure card deck ‘Sleep’]
[There are seven mist cards in this set]
[Note: When encountering [Mist: Church of Sleep], if you collect a complete set of Mist cards, you can advance to obtain clues to the corresponding hidden treasure and mark the corresponding location]
The origin of this card can be traced back to when he obtained the cult formation diagram from the Great Mechanic's storage folder in the ruins of the old shipyard of the Starfall Transport Twist.
And the strong mental pollution attached to it is for Su Wen.
It's just noise.
In the deep night, he elegantly raised the card with his index and middle fingers and placed it in front of himself:
"It's time to sleep."
In an instant.
The transparent ripples gradually spread from his source point.
three minutes.
Su Wen, wearing a black trench coat, pushed open the church door.
Everyone in the house, including the members of the Sleeping Sect and the survivors with numb expressions on their faces, had fallen to the ground.
Everything has fallen into slumber.
Only the black flame burning quietly on the candlestick remained.
as well as.
Right in front of the church, there is a statue of the evil god that has been replaced.
The entire statue is not huge. He wears a strange-shaped crown, which is like the trajectory of ancient stars.
And under His closed eyes, within the black gauze, are countless hands in a hugging state stretched out from nothingness, as if they want to pull people into endless sleep.
Su Wen had no hesitation.
He walked straight to the statue of the god and held the crown that looked like a star trail with his right hand wrapped in a black glove:
"Those arm-like statues are just images of gods.
Only this crown will be our passport for our next actions."
Chloe has little interest in cult items:
"Are these cultists still useful?"
"You can kill.
But it needs to create a time dislocation.
Our actions have just been exposed by the Frost Wyvern's surprise attack. Do you still remember the broken ice sculpture fragments?
But they haven't been able to confirm our identity yet.
in other words.
We need a controllable 'detonation time' on the other side during penetration operations.
so.
Those stupid cultists will misjudge our location. Of course, this is just the first insurance in my plan.
Miss Croshan, if your life sciences can't do this, then I'm going to do it myself."
He once got a batch of micron-level self-destruction robots from Caroline, although the actual lethality was very rubbish.
But for these cultists who have already fallen into a dream and have no resistance.
Perhaps the most excellent Death Shackles.
The rational and calm Su Wen never reserves any 'pity' for his enemies.
