Krafft's Anomaly Notes

Chapter 186 The gangrene of the bones

Kraft clenched his fist to completely wrap the pendant inside, grasping the light that had not been noticed by more people, "Okay, give the patient a little space to rest quietly, too many people making noise is not conducive to recovery."

"The Duke hopes that you and Knight Martin will go to meet as soon as possible after resting. Someone will come to remind you, Professor." The guard finally left the room, and reminded before leaving, "It has something to do with this matter."

"Of course, I also want to know what happened." Kraft nodded and agreed, motioning for Kupp to close the door and lock it.

Hearing the sound of footsteps going away, he closed half of the curtains and opened his palm, the pendant whose inlay was taken from the deep giant fungus condensate emitted a faint red light in the palm.Compared with the star-pointed red glow that could only be observed in the dark before, it is now a solidified blood flame set on a metal plate, second only to the state when facing the "angel".

This triggered Kupp's stress response, and he instinctively hid by the door and touched the hammer handle.

Kraft got up and walked around the room with the pendant in his hand. The red light dimmed and then brightened again, showing an undeniable change in brightness as he approached the bed.

Yvonne also noticed this rather familiar trinket, and watched Kraft take it around the room, and finally turned back in front of her, looking up at him for some unknown reason.

The two stared at each other.

"Yvonne, I know it might be uncomfortable to take the initiative to recall that experience again..." After considering the words and sentences, a more eclectic statement was picked out, in order to prevent the girl from mistakenly thinking that this was a questioning.

"You may have been affected by some bad effects, which are not obvious now, but it is likely to cause some ... symptoms in the future. So need to understand exactly what happened that day, okay?"

He pulled up a chair, sat in the sun, folded his hands in a normal conversation posture, "It's just a chat between us, starting from the morning, for example, was the breakfast delicious that day?" while leading the topic to easier ones At the beginning, Kraft observed Yvonne's reaction.

After encountering a terrible incident of fatal threat, it is not a good thing to bring it up in a short time. If Yvonne's mental state is not suitable for talking, he will choose to temporarily stop the conversation and get an overview from the Duke.

Yet the fact that Yvonne was acting calmer than she could have imagined was not reassuring.Normal people should undoubtedly have severe, far-reaching negative effects following such an exposure, and hers were like unsuccessfully eliciting the pain reflex.

"Two slices of bread?" she answered, going on, "and then I finished my homework for the day until noon when a man named Brimmer came."

"Blimmer?"

Professor of Humorology at Rivers University, a disciple of Professor Fernand, it is quite reasonable for this name to appear on the visiting list.

"What is he doing here?"

"He wants your manuscript, saying it's related to... the arrangement of academic gatherings?" After briefly recalling the unfamiliar terms, Yvonne said a little proudly, "I didn't let him touch your things."

"Oh, that thing is not that important, but you did the right thing." Kraft would not say that the content of the speech at the academic gathering was going to be stuck, and his schedule was full of selective writing of monographs.

This does not seem to be what a mature industry person should do. Even if it is nominally related to arranging academic conferences, it is too impolite to ask for unpublished manuscripts.What's more, if you don't explain to yourself, it is normal for a little carelessness to cause serious disputes.

And the following narration shifted his impression of Bremmer from "presumptuous and immature" to "suspicious".

"He stayed and said he wanted me to change my mind."

To be sure, Brimer's behavior was not accidental, but a definite request for the manuscript.Based on Kraft's understanding of Rivers University, they are all people with status and appropriate advances and retreats. It doesn't look like they came from the college or a higher level such as Professor Fernand's instruction to do this kind of thing.

"What's next?"

"I stayed with the craftsman for an afternoon, and they seem to have some ideas about what you want." She described her day, from Brimmer's visit to the wasted afternoon, as calm and uneventful.

And it seems to indicate that the important point is coming, and there is some emotion in the description, but it is not a fear, but something inexplicable, like walking out of a cave and standing in front of something more magnificent than a towering mountain. Afterwards, the pure emotions that are still unsatisfactory in retrospect, are not shock, trembling, and wonder, but also contain them all.

She pursed her lips, as if she was moistening her lips, or reminiscing about something, "On the way back, I saw something near his residence."

"Where does he live? What kind of thing?"

"They... are very beautiful, like wearing mushrooms on their bodies and climbing up from the cliff." Those images were reproduced in words, and one can imagine how terrifying the scene was, "I saw the torch go out, and I found a place to hide dawn."

A mature parasitic body is awakened in the place where the patrol team is least vigilant inside the castle. It climbs up the mountainside from the sky that is impossible for ordinary people to cross. The people encountered cannot avoid it. Meeting them on the mountain road is almost synonymous with death.

But why are they awakened?
Fort Westminster has only one known suspected germazim, and it is in the Duke, who is unable to control a large group of shells.

Unless there is a "channel", which is connected to the deep layer, just next to it, so that batches of germazins find that there are controllable objects nearby, and temporarily come to the present world.

A question that has been around for some days is answered - the disappearing Petrie lecturer and waiter at a dinner party.This answer became obvious after understanding the principle of Edward's "disappearance technique": Paganism has mastered a method that can stably pull people who have established a deep connection.

The premise is that the "caster" must be nearby, and the banquet venue is deep inside Rivers University, and the guy who plays the big change must be present.

In these two incidents, there were too few people present who overlapped.

【Brimmer】

Unexpectedly, this guy jumped out by himself.Thinking about it now, there were early signs of his loss of control, and his eager exit after the incident was somewhat out of character, but it was difficult to associate it at the time.

"Did you see Bremmer again?"

"I heard that the body was found in that room, but I don't know if it's him." Yvonne lowered his eyelids and couldn't see the focus of his gaze.

"Don't be afraid, after all, they are just things that are no match for swords and armor." Kraft realized that he might have asked too much, and he didn't know how to say something to comfort him, "You can think of them as some kind of beast, like a wolf. s things."

Yes, they are also dispatched in groups, hunting in the mushroom forest, the target is the body of the prey.

I hope not to bring any indelible psychological trauma to the girl, Kraft thought, Yvonne belongs to the kind of person who is not good at expressing, used to being alone, digesting things that are difficult for adults to swallow alone, even children The most useful emotional expression - I have never seen crying.

In his eyes, Yvonne is an angel in the education field, possessing the studious and positive qualities that every teacher is most willing to see, and also the sensible child that guardians are most willing to see, but this kind of sensibleness is not based on the transparent operation In terms of rules, it is a behavior pattern formed through observation that will least harm oneself.

Therefore, it is best not to be blindly reassured by looking at the superficial calm, and it is still necessary to invest in continuous attention.

What's more, it does feel that something is not quite right.Although Yvonne expresses a clear logic and is right in line with her identity, the comprehensive performance is based on intuition, and no problem is itself a problem.

"Sigh." Kraft sighed and connected the mental organ, knowing that every time he used it, he would get closer to the deeper level, but there were always times when he had to use it.

The internal structure of things echoes into the mind, the consciousness absorbs the complex information and sighs in satisfaction, the embedded object in the arm with outline geometric crystal clusters proliferates and oscillates endlessly, and the fine condensation precipitated under the skin trembles.

Scanning Yvonne's body, as expected, there was slight inflammation in the bronchi.However, it is limited to the large bronchi and has not yet developed to the alveoli, so it is estimated to be caused by inhalation.

The erratic and illusory slender, near-human figure overlaps with the body and is detected by the spirit.Its appearance comes from its own slight "fading", and the difference from the surrounding substances makes it appear in a slightly darker state, as if it is irradiated by some kind of dim and color-poor light alone.

That's something that shouldn't be seen under normal conditions, Yvonne's mental body.And Kraft clearly remembered that the last time he observed the mental body was when Kupp was deeply affected, the "fading" of the mental body would obviously make it different from the environment in the field of vision of the spiritual senses, and it would become more obvious as the degree of influence deepened. Produces increasingly deeper tones.

Something quite "familiar" is attached to the mental body, which seems to be the source of change.

It was an equally illusory velvet mass, with loose threads intertwined with thin cloud-like spirits, like a fungal lawn rooted in the mist.The textures of the two are indeed similar, and the contact parts are almost indistinguishable from each other.

【Factin? 】

In just half a day, Kraft once again felt the colic within the distance of two fingers from the left edge of the sternum, which radiated to the diaphragm, thorax, shoulder and back, and even the posterior molars. to be squeezed out by the rising pressure at the rear.

The first time I saw this thing, the spiritual senses touched it, and the invisible force clamped the existence of nothingness, trying to separate the foreign objects stuck to the spiritual body.

The kind of force that penetrates the physical object surrounds and pulls everywhere.The stimulated fungus contracted, reflexively trying to escape from the force of the spiritual senses to no avail.

However, this method of separation cannot clearly define the two. For example, invasive cancerous tissue. Bacterim and the spiritual body are similar in nature but have unclear boundaries. They blend with each other, and while they are involved, they are also acting on the host object. The land was disturbed and on the verge of collapse.

Kraft was forced to give up the operation after observing the rapid deterioration of Yvonne's mental state, simultaneous reflection of phantom pain in the corresponding parts, and drowsiness.
