Chapter 145 The Origin of Fear

The cave is very long, and with the deepening of the exploration, the farther and farther away from the entrance of the cave, the less and less light.If it weren't for the thunder light entwined around Gu You's body, probably only Tang San's soul-guided bone-penetrating nail could open the way.

After walking for nearly 10 minutes, Gu You found a bright light ahead.Winking at Zhu Zhuqing who was behind him, Zhu Zhuqing understood, and activated the second soul skill "Latent Shadow Strike" to hide in Gu You's shadow.

Xiao Wu activated the second soul skill, and after a while, said to everyone who looked wary: "There is no sign of any life activity inside."

Gu You frowned, this is not normal, how could someone who can hide in this place for at least half a year leave suddenly?

Could it be that his purpose has been accomplished?

"Also," Xiao Wu said with an ugly expression, "the smell of blood is very strong."

Hearing this, Gu You immediately rushed to the depths.Everyone followed closely behind, wanting to know what was going on inside.

"This...this is..." Gu You's pupils trembled, and his voice trembled slightly.

Hell on earth, only hell on earth can describe the scene in front of him.

In the deepest open area, the ground is densely packed with people.Fear, despair, madness, these expressions appeared on everyone's faces.There are all kinds of wounds all over the body.It wasn't caused by fighting, it was more like self-mutilation in madness.

The skin on the face was all torn off, exposing muscles and white bones.There were only holes left in the eyes, and a few relatively complete eyeballs remained among the pieces of meat scattered all over the floor.

Meng still stumbled and sat on the ground, feeling as if he had touched something sticky with the hand that was supporting him, and raised his hand to his eyes, only to see a dark red in the palm.

"what!!!!"

Meng Yiran's scream interrupted the silence in the cave.The three of them, who had never seen such a scene before, vomited while holding onto the rock wall.Xiao Wu went over to comfort them.Gu You immediately rushed in to see if there were any survivors, Tang San called out the Blue Silver Grass, activated the second soul skill, and the fragrance of healing ability permeated the cave, slightly suppressing the strong smell of blood.

"Damn bastard!" Unable to find any survivors, Gu You gritted his teeth, and the words he squeezed out were full of anger.He now wants to crush the jaw of the person who did such a thing, and then start from the fingers, and grind that person's bones into powder bit by bit.

"Brother You, come here quickly, there is something wrong with someone here!"

Xiao Wu's words made Gu You wake up, followed the sound to look for it, and saw a corpse surrounded by people, the pale feet were bloody and bloody.

The three of Lanta were also there, their faces were still a little pale, but they also forced themselves to observe the situation on the scene.

"What's wrong?" Gu You asked, the ground was full of corpses, and Xiao Wu didn't know what Xiao Wu found.

Hearing Gu You's voice, everyone dispersed to let Gu You in, Xiao Wu pointed and said, "Look for yourself."

Seeing the people on the ground, Gu You widened his eyes.

I saw that although his face was also bloody and bloody, there were also two holes in his eyes.But unlike everyone else, he didn't have a frightened expression on his face, but a closed mouth and frown.

Quickly comparing the characteristics of this person, Gu You said in disbelief: "This is... Ah Wei?!"

.........

"kill!!!!"

"Idiot, don't rush up, go back quickly."

Zhao Jie's body was covered with blood, the bristles on his arms were missing here and there, and the ring finger and little finger of his left hand were missing.There were three scratch marks on his face, and blood trickled down.

"Brother Jie, save me! I don't want to die!" His face was full of fear, and the words he shouted were also full of fear, but his movements were strange and he rushed towards the group of spirit beasts.

His figure was covered by the swarming spirit beasts, and disappeared from everyone's sight, leaving only the blood and pieces of flesh splashed from it.

"Damn it!" Zhao Jie roared angrily, using his teeth to pick up a few soul beasts around him, and charged towards that side.After a few steps, more soul beasts rushed up, and Zhao Jie had no choice but to retreat.

Watching the group members die in front of him, but he was powerless, Zhao Jie yelled at the soul master at the Wuhun Hall next to him: "Damn it, what's going on with you, why did you become like this?!"

"We don't know either!" The spirit master at the Spirit Hall next to him looked like he was about to cry, two spirit rings, one white and one yellow, flashed alternately, and the round shield on his arm knocked all approaching spirit beasts into the air without any mistakes.

"The lord asked us to organize a small team to go in. It is good to leave only the minimum manpower on the outside. Everyone else has gone into the spirit beast forest."

"Then what about them!!!"

"We don't know either! In the beginning, there were people who came out to get supplies, but every day fewer and fewer people came out. No one came out a month and a half ago!"

"Damn it!" Zhao Wei slammed the spirit beast in front of him into the air. After the spirit beast screamed and fell to the ground, several white spirit rings appeared. "You didn't send someone in to look for it?"

"Yes, but they are also missing." The soul master of Wuhun Hall shouted, took off the shield from his arm, and threw it at the spirit beast behind Zhao Jie who was about to attack.After knocking the soul beast into the air, it bounced back to the hand accurately.

"Good job, Rogers kid." Zhao Jie frantically used his tooth pick to clean up the soul beast without turning his head. "Where is your palace master? Why haven't you seen him for such a big event?"

Rogers blocked the coyote's attack with his shield, and flung the shadow lizard lying on his body away. "Send someone to look for him, but he's not in the office."

"He's been here for a year, and I haven't seen him." Zhao Jie spat blood to his side, the fangs on both sides were already stained with the blood of the soul beast, "He must have run away."

Rogers didn't answer, he just concentrated on beating the soul beast.Zhao Jie didn't expect a younger brother to dare to complain about his leadership to outsiders, and was ready to fight after just mentioning it casually.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, the spirit beasts stopped attacking and retreated slowly facing the crowd one by one.Corpses were left all over the ground, both human and spirit beasts, and countless spirit rings were floating in the air.

"We... did we win?" Zhao Jie stared blankly at the retreating soul beast, his eyes filled with disbelief.

The same is true for Rogers, he had no idea that he could survive in this situation.Just as he was about to laugh out loud, there was applause in his ears.

pop, pop, pop

"You guys are very good." A man with a human skin book under his arm applauded and walked out of the shadows. He was tall and had slender limbs, but it could be seen from his bare wrists that he should be very thin.A black robe blocked his face, and his hands were stained with blood.

"I didn't expect you to happen to be here, Zhao Jie from the Tai Training Group." The man raised his hood, "This is the so-called "misfortune". Things never go according to plan. We can only constantly correct and improve it. "

The man raised his head, his face was covered with hideous scars, as if scalded by boiling water, and his eye sockets were empty.Just looking at this face made Zhao Jie feel unwell all over.

"Hall...Hallmaster?" Rogers' voice was very shaken. He heard the man's voice was exactly the same as his own, but his appearance was completely different.

"Ah, it's Rogers." Hearing the voice, the man turned the two black holes to Rogers. "You are still alive, I thought you would be among the first to die."

"Hallmaster?" Zhao Jie couldn't believe that Wuhundian would send such a person to be the hallmaster.

"Zhao Jie, haven't you always wanted to meet me? I am the Lord of the Spirit Hall here, Klein." The man wiped his face with his hand, and his face became a gentle man.Wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses, with a warm smile on his face.

"What?!" Everyone was stunned, not only Zhao Jie and Rogers, but other people nearby did not expect that just a touch of hand would completely change their face.

"Hahahahahaha" Klein covered his face and laughed wildly, his gentle face turned into mist and dissipated.

"You guys, can you really be sure that everything you see now is real?"

The man said with a sinister smile, "Your breathing is very rapid."

.........

"I'm Zhao Wei. Everyone calls me Awei. I'm the deputy head of the Tai Training Group."

"I might be dying."

"It was just an ordinary and ordinary day. I took my team members into a dark place to collect a rare medicinal material. But I didn't expect that this was the beginning of a nightmare."

"Hell, I'm in hell right now."

"I saw someone tearing his face, crying and laughing and hitting the rock wall."

"I saw people screaming and gouging out their own eyeballs and putting them in their mouths to chew."

"I saw someone screaming and attacking the surrounding people indiscriminately, but was quickly killed by a man in black."

"That book, that blood-red book, that book with this face on it. It's pulling out the soul of a man and stuffing it into a stone."

"The village disappeared in the flames, and everyone in the Taixun regiment died in the flames."

"Spirit beasts attacked the village. In order to cover the retreat of the villagers, Brother Jie and Ah Tong were killed in battle."

"Illusions, all illusions, I'm still in this cave."

"Can't escape, he didn't prevent those people from escaping, but they always came back in a muddle-headed attack, and then their souls were drawn out."

"I can't see anymore. After waking up, my eyes are dark, and my face is burning with pain."

"I must be ugly now, still crying, and I will be ridiculed when Brother Jie finds out."

"Although I am far inferior to Brother Jie in combat, according to the new division, I should belong to the investigative soul master."

"Unlike the wild boar that Brother Jie used to fight, my Wuhun has strengthened my sense of smell. Even if I can't see it now, I can smell the disgusting smell here and the cool breeze outside."

"Also, I haven't been able to detect the strange smell in the air in the past."

"The hallucinations are still happening, and every time I wake up, my head hurts more and more."

"It's not an illusion, it's not the eyes, it's the nose, it's the nose!"

"I'm going to run, I have to run, I have to get out."

"The smell of rot in the dark place is the smell of freedom."

"I'm back again, the hand on my head is tightening, and it feels like my soul is being torn apart."

"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts

"Can't open my mouth, can't open my mouth, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on

"I'm sorry, Brother Jie. I'll leave the training group to you."

"It doesn't matter who it is, please, understand what I mean, and discover my last gift."

.....................

"Is he Awei?"

"That's right." Gu You remembered that Zhao Jie had told him about Zhao Wei's characteristics. Although his face was completely changed, it was obvious from his clothes that he was Zhao Wei who Zhao Jie asked them to find clues.

"Why does he have this expression?" Gu You couldn't understand, all the faces of the dead here were full of fear, pain, and despair, why only Zhao Wei's expression seemed to be enduring pain.

After a while, Gu You suddenly remembered something, and took out the two identical tokens from his bosom.

"This token is Zhao Wei's token!" Gu You suddenly realized something, flipped over the token, looked at the word "mouth" carved in stone on the back, and saw Zhao Wei's tightly closed mouth .

"...Sorry, I offended you." Gu You stretched out his hand and forcefully opened Zhao Wei's mouth.

Before Zhao Wei died, he used all his strength to close his mouth tightly, and the stiff muscles after his death made Gu You only choose to open his mouth a little bit.

When he opened his mouth, what he saw were cracks due to excessive force, even some broken teeth, and a piece of water cloth that was pressed against the palate with his tongue.

Gu You carefully pulled out the cloth, inside was a piece of paper with words written on it.

"Soul King, Blind Man, Poison Gas, Fear, Hallucinations, Human Skin Book can extract souls, Huayan Monster, almost finished, protect the town, protect the town!!!"

"This is?!" Tang San saw the words on it and the three huge exclamation marks. He glanced at Zhao Wei with admiration, then took out the herbs from the soul guide, and began to configure them according to the clues left by Zhao Wei. antidote.

Tang San judged from the behavior of Xiao Wu and others just now that it might be related to hallucinations, but because he didn't know the principle of hallucinations, he didn't dare to configure antidote at will.

Knowing now that the most important principle is fear, then Tang San knew how to break the influence of this poisonous gas, he needed to choose tranquilizing medicine.

"At that time..." Gu You recalled the hallucination he had when the barbed claw cat attacked him.

"That's how it turned out. At that time, the strong wind brought by the hooked claw cat blew away the fragrance of the mistress beside me, so the previous hallucinations appeared. The restlessness in the dark place should also have something to do with this."

Gu You and Tang San have been to the more terrifying Venomous Swamp, which is more uncomfortable than the dark place. The two who have passed the test of the Venomous Swamp can't stand the slightly better environment here because they are affected by the forest. Pervasive poisonous gas effect.

Gu You stretched out his fingers to Zhao Wei, who tried his best to keep the information, and gently pressed on his furrowed brow, rubbing it slowly.

"Thank you, brother. Leave the rest to us."

.........

"Oh, Soul King."

Klein looked at the black figure that suddenly appeared in front of him, and the five soul rings, two yellow, two purple, and one black floating beside him, with a hint of disdain on the corner of his mouth.

"Fallen, your time of death has arrived."

The person who came was Zhu Zhuqing's guard, and he had been silently watching the spirit beast attack.He knew very well that normally speaking, there would be no spirit beast riots in this place.

If there is a spirit beast riot, at least a qualified spirit beast must appear as the leader. There are not even thousand-year-old spirit beasts here, so it may be the work of fallen people.

He must be patient, retain his strength, and wait for the black hand behind the scenes to appear.

"Jie Jie Jie Jie Jie, try this."

Klein opened the human skin book, and took out a stone with blood-red patterns from his arms. Five soul rings with the best configuration emerged from behind, with a sinister gleam in his eyes.

----------------

ps: No one seems to have found the clues I buried in front, sad
 Two more will be delivered.I am personally quite satisfied with this plot. Although it has nothing to do with the protagonist, at least I think the characters are okay after reading it.I don’t know if there are any friends who have played chapter 2.6.5 of fgo. I want to shape these characters into the nameless cavalry. They are weak and ordinary, but they can give out a small brilliance only once with all their strength, and leave hope to the future.Because these two chapters are the product of the onset of Wenqing's disease, I decided not to read the comments, and I was a dog after reading them.
