The cold wind blew the shadows of the trees, and Zhou Haorui anxiously saw those sinister figures approaching from all sides. While thinking about how to escape, he shouted loudly. But the rustling wind seemed to cover up his voice, and he heard the crow say:
"These people have been prepared for a long time and are using dark power. Your voice cannot be heard out of the woods."
That means no matter how long you wait, no one will come...
Zhou Haorui gritted his teeth and ran towards a gap next to him, feeling severe pain in his shoulders and neck.
Bang bang! But those people reacted very quickly, even faster. One of the men with a goatee swung out a punch and hit Zhou Haorui's head accurately and hard.
There was a huge pain, and everything was spinning. Zhou Haorui found that he had fallen to the muddy ground, his head, and his left elbow that had been propped up on the ground were all in pain.
Perhaps death still seemed far away. The first nervousness that arose in his heart was that the soft tissues of his head and left hand had been damaged and would transform into alien bones...
Before the tension subsided, he felt a pain like a split in his abdomen. The man with the goatee came up and kicked him hard, causing his whole body to twitch in pain.
That was definitely not a strength that ordinary people could have. With one kick, it seemed as if all his internal organs were broken into pieces.
"You are lucky to be a sacrifice." The man stepped on Zhou Haorui's chest with his foot, causing his ribs to click. "The growth of new life requires nutrients."
Zhou Haorui's whole body was soaked in cold sweat. He struggled with his hands, but was unable to break free due to the pain. Crow, crow...
"You won't leave it alone..." His lips moved but no sound came out. He didn't even know if he said it in his heart. His consciousness began to blur.
"It depends on who is dying." The crow could hear it, saying from nowhere: "I want to save you. But you have been eroded by the power behind the petrification disease, and you are a projection of that existence.
.Until this connection is broken, I cannot save you unless you accept my power."
"Accept...your power?"
Although Zhou Haorui had read a lot of occult theories spread among the people, he still couldn't understand it. He was kicked a few more times in a daze. The scene and consciousness in front of him became more and more blurred, and he was about to faint. That was exactly the purpose of the other party - to relieve him.
His ability to struggle dragged him away from this small forest.
Crow didn't speak, he was muttering: "Do I still have a choice now..."
"You can choose illness and death." Crow said, "And my power is used to eliminate illness and drive away death."
At the same time, Zhou Haorui was picked up by several men. In a daze, he saw that these people had different faces, but they all had goatees.
His limbs were about to be twisted, and he might have fainted from the pain, as if he saw sheep heads growing on their necks.
"Then I hope... you didn't lie to me..." Zhou Haorui murmured. Now Tianji Bureau and Gu Jun are too far away, and the crow is too close. "I accept your power!"
Suddenly, he heard clicking sounds all over his body, and the alien bone bulge on his back shoulder seemed like a pair of giant wings bursting out.
Looks of surprise appeared on the faces of the men with goatees that were obscured by the night.
On the ground beneath Zhou Haorui, a huge shadow suddenly appeared, a shadow in the shape of a crow spreading its wings.
The strong wind blew, and the faces of every goatee man around him were distorted in pain.
Zhou Haorui was surprised by what was happening in front of him, but also felt that he was boiling with confusion. With more powerful hands, he shook away the hand that was holding him, and slowly stood up. And those goatee men who were gradually falling into madness
I saw the crow-shaped shadow rising from the ground and looming behind Zhou Haorui.
"You can see that the crows are already flying." Amidst the sound of the wind blowing in the woods, there was a calm voice: "The rotting flesh and blood will become the prey of the crows."
Before any man with a goatee could say anything...
Click, click, click, as if a sharp blade was swiped, the heads on their necks rose into the sky, and the blood spurted out like a fountain. In an instant, the heads fell to the ground one after another.
Bang, bang, bang... And then their headless corpses fell down one by one while shaking, and their blood soaked into the soil.
Their heads were cut off by the wind, which was as sharp and precise as a scalpel.
Zhou Haorui was completely stunned, his feet were shaking slightly...
"You have to start getting used to this kind of thing," the crow said, "because you will also see a lot of rotten flesh and blood destroyed by crows."
Zhou Haorui looked around and saw exactly ten heads and ten corpses. He couldn't help but murmured: "But what should I do now? Killing..."
Many thoughts had flashed through his messy mind. He studied chemistry. There were many ways to melt the corpse, but it was difficult to leave no traces.
"Killing is not a problem, the problem is only why you kill and who you kill." The figure of the crow appeared on a tree branch again, making it unclear whether it was a phantom or reality. "When you need to kill, don't do it."
Hesitate, because your enemy will not hesitate."
Suddenly, a foul smell spread quickly, and Zhou Haorui looked at the corpses on the ground in shock, all of which were reduced to rotten mud in the blink of an eye...
He thought to himself that this small forest was really dead.
"You just said...there are dark forces and rituals behind the petrification disease, but it can be cured by breaking the connection..."
Zhou Haorui tried his best to sort out the chaos, looking at the crow full of unknowns, "You have such a strong power, why don't you directly deal with those goatees...evil believers? Destroy that power? Solve the petrification disease..."
"Human civilization is like a group of stray dogs in a community. They can live happily, they can regard the community as their home, and they can even think that they are the masters of the community. But once they make a big move, they will be captured at any time.
Drive out and kill.”
Zhou Haorui gradually understood what the crow said next: "This universe has many, many kinds of powers and existences, and the earth world has always been like this. Things between mortals usually do not interest them. They
You won’t even know. But it’s different when extraordinary power is involved. It’s very different. And some evil believers can also have great power. These people who came to arrest you tonight are just minions. And I, than
Mortals are strong, but still very weak."
"Weak?" Zhou Haorui was confused. Is he still weak after being so powerful...
"Yes, weak." said the crow, "like a person who has not recovered from a serious injury, like a newborn baby, like the air that has just condensed, it is not yet a storm. But my strength will grow, and your strength will also grow." It.
He flapped his wings, rose from the branches, and flew into the night sky, while the words were still coming:
"Go back and continue living your life during the day. After the sun sets, the crows will come."
Zhou Haorui watched the dark figure disappear into the distance. At this time, the feeling of alien bone growth in his body had completely stopped, except for the faint feeling of heat on his right wrist.
He looked down and saw that his sleeves were not covered, and there was a black symbol like a tattoo on the skin of his right wrist.
It looked like a mark, like...a crow's long pointed beak.
The cold wind was still there, but Zhou Haorui had an inexplicable feeling. Now he was a crow, one of a group of crows.
