Mystery: Mr. Witch and Miss Hunter

Chapter 221

"What did you say..."

Before Rayleigh could react, Adele's figure had appeared in front of him like a ghost, grabbed Rayleigh's hair, and dragged him down the steps.

Afterwards, Adele kicked Rayleigh into the room, and then closed the door heavily.

"Say hello to your brother."

Adele didn't turn off the lantern, so Rayleigh could also see his father's corpse in the basement, and the creature between humans and fungi slowly rising from the corpse.The other party found this brother who had never met, and he looked obviously more bully than the woman just now, so he roared excitedly.

Before Rayleigh could react, he was thrown to the ground by the monster. From the monster's mouth, densely packed tiny air roots protruded and penetrated into his slender neck.

This statement is actually not accurate, because this monster not only has tiny aerial roots and mycelium in its mouth, but most of the facial features except the body frame are composed of mycelium and aerial roots. The windings overlap each other, forming a complex spatial structure, and there is no skin covering the outside, and those fine folds are just exposed to the air.

"Aaaaaaaaaaa!"

Rayleigh screamed.

He used to think that his mutated father was the nightmare of his life, but the mushroom man he saw today was ten times or even a hundred times more terrifying than his father.Moreover, his father's iconic high forehead and high nose bridge can be vaguely recognized on the face made of fine mycelium. Except for the lack of skin and protruding eyes, it is almost exactly the same as his father.

Rayleigh struggled, trying to get rid of the terrifying monster, but no matter how much he kicked, kicked and screamed, the monster's air roots penetrated deeply into his body, like earthworms, in his skin Slowly crawling in and out, stitching him and the monster's body together little by little.

The pain only appeared for a moment and then disappeared. It was replaced by a maddening tingling sensation and a depraved weird pleasure. Rayleigh felt that his consciousness was slowly disappearing.

Rayleigh's fingernails were covered with a mixture of broken hyphae and rotting flesh, which was the body residue he grabbed from the monster, but none of this could stop the opponent from moving, and his broken throat issued "Whoa!" "Ho", the body gradually lost strength due to lack of oxygen and excessive blood loss.

Just then, the closed door opened.

Rayleigh looked up instinctively, but only saw a vague figure sitting in the light.Although her face became blurred in Rayleigh's gradually drying eyes, Rayleigh inexplicably detected a look of pity in that face.

"You are beyond help, but in the last few seconds of your life, what else can you do."

Adele spoke softly, without deliberately acting, the body, vocal cords and spirituality almost acted by themselves.

A black flame quietly burned two meters in front of Rayleigh. The shining spiritual light made even Rayleigh, who was not an Extraordinary, aware of the quietly burning flame.

"Touch this flame, and it will burn you and your brother completely."

Adele said in a singing voice, "Although I don't know if this can erase your sins, at least this is a punishment commensurate with it."

"Or do nothing and let him devour you. Maybe in this case, he can help you spread the pain. This is what you have been doing before."

Adele spread out her palms to let the sunlight stream down evenly from her side.

"Choose. Do you continue what you did before and let the pain pass on, or do you make a small change before you die?"

Change……

The word means different things to everyone, and the difficulty of making a change varies.Maybe Rayleigh also has his own unique life experience, maybe it is these experiences that brought him to where he is today, but Adele has no way of understanding these, and she doesn't care.

For Adele, if one person did something wrong, then one should be punished.And she just gave the victim a chance to repent, whether the other party repents or not, it is within her expectations.Before the priest appeared, this was also the fate of the witch.

Perhaps for Rayleigh, he made a long decision in his heart, but for Adele, it only took two seconds for Rayleigh to complete the last choice in his life.

Rayleigh crawled forward with difficulty, stretched out his hands tremblingly, and hugged the black flame in the light place into his arms, as if embracing some beautiful things he gave up with his own hands.

The black flame swelled all of a sudden, spreading upwards along Rayleigh's body, engulfing the sutures of the flesh and the flesh they connected together, and saving Rayleigh from the false pleasure brought about by the mushroom secretions Coming out made him feel the long-lost pain again.

Rayleigh, however, didn't have the energy to care about that.Surrounded by black flames, he almost exhausted all his strength to raise his head again and look towards the end of the passage.

Then, the witch at the end of the passage smiled softly, reminding Rayleigh of his long-dead mother.

Before the black fire spread down Rayleigh's arm and spread all over his body, Adele reached out and stroked his disheveled hair lightly.

"What a good boy."

……

The palm moved away, leaving more black flames, drowning out Rayleigh's peaceful expression of finding home.Being burned by black flames is not a peaceful way to die, but his expression is unusually calm.

Adele closed the door again, allowing a wave of black flames to sweep the entire room, eliminating all possible residual bacteria or other sources of pollution.

Riley's choice made her feel a little relieved.In fact, no matter what Riley chooses, it is impossible for her to let the other party become a monster and go to Indoport to attack ordinary people.

What's more, there are Frank's mushrooms here. If this kind of thing is left alone, I am afraid that when Venata and Sophie come back, the men in the entire Port of Indor will be pregnant with children with mushroom caps...

Adele just thought about that scene for a while, and felt creepy.

"...the only destination is peace."

Adele prayed in a low voice and tapped her chest four times.After about 10 minutes, she opened the door again.

Under the steps of the door, Rayleigh's broken body fell to the ground, and his spiritual body had been completely burned.The monster born purely from spirituality on his body also disappeared, leaving behind gray-white dust, which was gently raised up with the change of airflow when the door was opened, like a little snow.
