Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Chapter 339 Continuing Life for God
Wish seemed to sense the appearance of those eyes, and opened them almost at the same time, with golden vertical pupils staring at the shadow of those eyes.

She smelled an unusual smell of fish and pepper, and the thing outside the window seemed to have just eaten.

She had seen silhouettes of this shade before.

It was on a pier between dreams and the real world, the weather was gloomy, and storms could strike at any time, and the streets and alleys erected above a piece of dark water were empty.

Except for the clouds floating in the sky, the only thing that moves in the whole picture is the shadow in the water under the street.

It was a humanoid creature.

Intelligent carbon-based creatures are always evolving towards the "human form", as is the case with the group under the waters. They obviously received the blood of an evil god, but they evolved into a human form—that is nature choice of them.

She didn't know their names, but she had seen them regard the waters as their own territory, and hunt and kill any existence that entered the waters, as the blood food they depended on for survival.

The pier she saw at that time was already very dilapidated, and the architectural style was grotesque, obviously the product of someone's imagination.

The dream turned the person's imagination into something real, and let these things exist in the gap between dream and reality.

And the monsters under the waters took advantage of the void, they like this place more than the world, because their abilities allow them to do whatever they want here——

They came ashore from all corners of the street, and then opened a door at will, behind which was someone's dream——

This narrow street has been tampered with by their special abilities, and each door in the street leads to a separate dreamland.

They can pick their favorite dreams, then enter them, make a mess of everything in the dream, and then devour all negative emotions.

Wish had deliberately followed them and even seen them eating.

That scene left a lot of psychological shadow on Wish.

They can also carry the things of their dreams into the streets and alleys they made with their own hands - that's how the wood for the docks comes from.

They call themselves [UFO].

[UFO] does not only exist on this planet. In fact, some [unknown existences in the starry sky], before spreading their blood, did not predict that there would be a large number of [UFO].

Those blood created many gods of different shapes, and the first generation of Moon God was one of them.

After several generations of evolution, the [UFO] as the family of the moon is a little different from the [UFO] she has seen before-these guys can leave the narrow gap between the world and the dream, and with this shadow form exists in the present world.

Wish has seen many pictures in the long "previous life", some of those pictures come from the memory fragments of the world, and some of them come from her accidental glance - when her eyes fall on a certain corner of the universe, she can Get the vision out there.

She used to be the messenger of the world, faithfully recording everything for the world with her vision.

But these days, when she uses her own vision to observe the world, she feels more and more difficult. The vision that she could cast at will now is not as random as before—when she looks at some unknown existence, she can clearly see She perceives that the other party is also looking at her-before, no existence has noticed her gaze, because the eyes of the world are everywhere.

She chose to enter the mortal world and become an ordinary carbon-based creature, so she couldn't preserve all the abilities that belonged to the spirit of the universe... Maybe this is the world's punishment for her?
Fortunately, although the uninvited guest tonight is much stronger than last night, it is not beyond her ability.

So, after a brief confrontation, the shadow receded.

She knew they would come again, but she didn't mind being here every night.

What she cares about is whether there will be more powerful guys coming next.

It stands to reason that the Moon God has been roaming the world for thousands of years, so he should have maintained the human way of doing things. He should know that pure revenge is meaningless.

Then, the purpose of the [UFO] outside the window to come tonight is not to kill Chen Yan.

If it is not to kill people, it must be negotiated.

But they didn't negotiate, they just came and then left.

Wish thought: Is it because I am here that they did not communicate with Chen Yan in order to avoid me?

But even then, I couldn't risk them getting into this bedroom.

Before I knew it, the bell of the Moon Clock Tower had struck the fifth sound—it was already five o'clock in the morning.

Time to go back.

The shadow of the tiger on the carpet jumped out of the window and disappeared.

A moment later, the window was opened, and a black figure jumped into the room.

The cold wind that came in with the shadow made Chen Yan shiver severely, and he woke up in an instant.

"Ogami!"

Chen Yan heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the black shadow's face clearly.

Ohgami was covered in wind and frost, and his leather clothes were frozen hard, and a thick layer of ice had formed on the hilt of the samurai sword on his back—the sword was not out of its sheath, which meant that there was no violent conflict, which was a good thing.

“This trip has been fruitful!”

Chen Yan looked at him as if he was holding something in his hand.

So he turned over and got up, turned on the kerosene lamp, and saw that he was holding a transparent plastic handbag in his hand!

At this moment, Chen Yan thought that there was something wrong with his eyes.

This plastic bag is very similar to the plastic bag he remembered from his previous life.

Has the plastic material industry in Yanan City also started to develop...

Under the light of the kerosene lamp, Ogami opened the plastic bag, and saw that there was...

A pile of moss.

"This is?"

Chen Yan didn't need to open his spirit vision, but just moved his face closer, and saw that the moss was wriggling.

"Is this thing alive?"

Chen Yan's face was a little ugly, and the visual impact was not small when faced with such a large mass of wriggling moss.

"Yes, alive, and... what do you think it is?"

Chen Yan looked away: "I don't want to guess..."

Ohgami said: "This thing is Gottlinde!"

Chen Yan almost dropped his jaw in shock: "What?!"

Ohgami said: "To be precise, this is the [Cicada Molt] of Gottlind and her little friends."

Chen Yan tied up the plastic bag, then said, "Details."

It turned out that at around eight o'clock last night, Chen Yan and Ogami separated from Mouse Lane, Chen Yan returned to the apartment, and Ogami followed Gottlind all the time.

"She is very vigilant, she doesn't look like she has drunk fake wine at all, and she doesn't live in Mouse Lane."

Chen Yan nodded, expressing that he also thought of this situation at the beginning.

Ohgami followed Gottlinde for three laps in the intricate Mouse Alley, turned out of the old city from a very inconspicuous intersection, and entered Birmingham Street, a middle-class dense residential area in Yanan City.

During this process, Ohgami didn't even notice that she had changed her attire at some point. The gray zoo staff uniform she was wearing backwards was gone, replaced by a velvet shawl, and a suit that looked like it at a glance. Not cheap plush leather jackets.

According to Ohgami, she seemed to have "suddenly" become a Birmingham Street lady.

Ohgami followed her around Birmingham Street for a few more laps, until it was nearly 10 o'clock when she entered a certain basement on Birmingham Street——

Birmingham Street is a neighborhood specially built for the middle class. People here are basically richer, and the basement is not used for rent, but only for private use.

Ohgami couldn't follow in, so he listened outside, and heard words that only the spiritual sense could perceive:

"The great God of Spring once bestowed upon us the most precious blessing, may you praise his name, accept his favor, and enjoy blood for it."

Then, there was a chewing sound.

Ogami was really curious, so he tried to sneak into the house above the basement, and finally saw the scene in the basement through the cracks in the ventilation duct:

More than a dozen elderly men and women in pure white sacrificial attire gathered around a rectangular table. The attire was even more pure white than the attire worn by the priestesses in Ogami's hometown, but they had no sleeves, no trouser legs, and even the abdomen Both stock and stocks are exposed.

The dozen or so people were all elderly people, including Gottlinde who was already extremely old at some point, and none of them was younger than 80 years old.

And on the rectangular table in front of them was a wild boar that looked like it had just died.

They didn't use knives and forks, just used their mouths to bite the meat of the wild boar, allowing the lard to stain the pure white sacrificial clothes, and the white and hairless skin.

While they were eating, some sticky green tentacles protruded from somewhere under them and plunged into the boar's body.

At first glance, the thing looked like a boa constrictor in a swamp covered in dark green meadows.

More than a dozen green tentacles plunged into the wild boar's body, twitching continuously to absorb nutrients, like a drainage pipe pumping water from a viscous liquid. In just a few minutes, the wild boar was pumped until only one Dry skin.

They didn't let go of the wild boar's skin. In the next minute, they used knives and forks to share the pig's skin.

After completing all this, their bodies seemed to be infused with new life. Their haggard skin now even had baby fat, and their appearances all returned to their 20-year-old appearance.

"The God of Spring has blessed us."

They said in unison.

Then, one of them stood up, knelt in front of the rectangular table, suddenly trembling all over, like a goat, rolled his eyes, looked at the ceiling, raised his hands, and said in an extremely exaggerated trill:

"God of Spring! Thank you for your gift! You have continued our life! You have given us the most noble blessing!"

He looked at the rectangular table where the wild boar originally existed:

"The Leviathan family who made glass! They are so selfless! They actually gave everything to us!"

He seemed very sad, with snot and tears all over his face.

"The God of Spring will remember you! The God of Spring will thank you for your efforts! One day, the God of Spring will re-emerge as a god, and we will usher in the hymn of a new God, sharing immortality with the God of Spring!"

After crying sadly for a while, he knelt on the ground for a long time, then stood up, and said to everyone in a calm, trembling voice:

"The Leviathan family sacrificed themselves, and we lost another family of brothers and sisters."

He glanced around with firm eyes:

"But Chunshen's life is extended because of this, and all sacrifices are worth it!"

Seeing this, Ohgami felt extremely strange. He obviously felt that the wild boar was a real wild boar, and it wasn't turned into someone.
