The Lost City of Alien Beasts

Chapter 299 Night Walk
Snow Country, Aurora Town, 1:30 in the morning.

There is a 2-hour time difference between Aurora Town in Snow Country and New Zealand.

Qinglong received a call from Baihu and Suzaku at one o'clock in the morning.

The three of them were crowded in the small hotel room, and the atmosphere was somewhat tense.

Suzaku and Baihu were on speakerphone, conducting an "interrogation" on Sarah's body.

Although Sarah's body did not have much damage, there was still a strange energy - a curse - in her body. Suzaku tried his best, but still only managed to get 1 minute of interrogation time.

Suzaku took the questions that Qinglong and others had prepared long ago and asked them one by one in order of importance. Only one-third of the questions were answered by Sarah.

After 1 minute, the interrogation ended.

Qinglong chatted with Baihu for the last few words on the phone and then hung up.

"Go to the Holy Mountain Church." Qinglong made a decision. He walked to the clothes rack, took the black down jacket and the velvet winter hat, and quickly put them on.

Douhu and Wuse listened to Suzaku's interrogation of Sarah's body. They had no objections to the decision and began to wear cold-proof coats.

The three of them got ready, checked the location of the Holy Mountain Church on the mobile map, and left the hotel in a low-key manner.

During the day, the snow stopped in Aurora Town and the sun briefly appeared for a few hours.

But late at night, it became windy and snowy again, and it was freezing cold.

The Holy Mountain Church is the former site of Ji'an Sect.

It was at the foot of the hill on the north side of town, not far from Sarah's residence.

Navigating according to the map, the three of them first arrived at the end of the main street, crossed a frozen river, passed an area of ​​abandoned old wooden houses, and then passed through a small forest.

As the three of them headed to their destination, they reviewed the entire incident together based on the information Suzaku asked.

Sarah's parents have always been believers in the Ji'an Cult. When Sarah was 6 years old, her parents died in an avalanche, and Sarah was taken to the Holy Mountain Church.

The Holy Mountain Church is not only the church of Ji'an Cult, but also an orphanage. Sarah grew up with five or six children who were also orphans.

When Sarah was 18 years old, Ji'an Cult arranged a marriage for Sarah. The husband was a strange man whom Sarah didn't know at all, and he was not from the Snow Country.

After the marriage, Sarah became pregnant.

A year later, Sarah gave birth to Lilia.

Not long after, Sarah's husband died in an accident (very suspicious here).

Sarah still stays in the Holy Mountain Church to work while raising her daughter Lilia. Naturally, both mother and daughter believe in the Ji'an Cult.

When Lilia was 18 years old, senior members of Ji'an Cult suddenly announced that Lilia was the daughter of God, and now it was time to carry out the tasks assigned to her by God.

So Lilia was taken away and Sarah could never see her again.

Sarah initially believed in the Jigan Cult and firmly believed that Lilia was the reincarnation of the goddess and that she was not her real mother.

But as her longing for her daughter worsened, she could no longer deceive herself. She hoped that the church would let her see her daughter, but she was rejected.

After that, Sarah's mental state had problems, and within two years she went completely crazy.

According to the information from the Kirin Union, Lilia came to study abroad in Licheng when she was 19 years old, and she awakened and understood [Explosion]. At that time, the Kirin Union noticed her and wanted to recruit her to join the union, but she was declined.

Not long after, Lilia disappeared.

According to the testimony provided by the elders of Qiying, more than a month ago, the Cangmu Cult sent Hong Crazy to snatch the rune circuits of the twelve zodiac animals, but the operation failed.

Not long after, Hong Kuang retaliated against Qi Ying again. Before Qi Ying killed Hong Kuang, Hong Kuang shouted "sister", and this "sister" was most likely Lilia.

Theoretically, Red Crazy's [Explosion] should also be inherited from Lilia.But there are also contradictions. When Hong Feng was killed by Qiying, he revealed his desire to save his sister, which shows that Lilia was not dead at that time.

Since Lilia is not dead yet, why does Red Crazy have the [explosion] talent?There has to be a question mark here.

Douhu walked in the front. He opened the mouth of his winter hat, took a sip of strong wine, and expressed his conclusion: "Based on the current situation, we can deduce that Sarah and her husband are both human beings."

"There is a high probability that they are still unawakened humans." Wu Color, who was walking in the middle, added.

"But Lilia has awakened." Douhu smiled and turned to look at Wu Se: "Didn't your organization recently publish a paper on the conditions for awakening?"

"Well, we believe that once ordinary humans come into contact with an awakened person, they will have a chance to awaken. This is a necessary condition, but not necessarily a sufficient condition."

Qinglong, who was walking at the end, had a low voice: "Based on our understanding of the Cang Mu Cult, their composition is very complex. There are beasts, humans, half-humans, and ghosts. Lilia's awakening must have been planned by the Cang Mu Cult." "

"What do they want to do?" Wu Se asked.

"I don't know, but Lilia is the key." Douhu was stunned for a moment and laughed, "I love talking nonsense anyway."

"Then let me ask a stupid question, where did we humans come from?" Wu Color said.

Qinglong was silent for a few seconds. At this time of crisis, there was no need to hide some information: "The inference of our organization is that there are two situations. One is the combination of human beings and human beings, born directly in Licheng."

"I know this." Wu Se nodded. There were a lot of people in their Baichuan group, and this happened a lot. For example, this was the case with the daughter born to Lao Wang and Sha Ye.

"However, Cang Dao has always kept the number of humans leaving the city at around four hundred. According to the death rate of the awakened ones, it is simply not enough to reproduce on our own." Wu Se said.

"Yes, and most human family members are beasts, which is also very contradictory." Douhu said.

"So there is another situation." Qinglong said: "More humans were brought to this misty world."

"Is this the speculation of your Qilin Union, or is it something that has been confirmed?" Douhu asked.

"I can only say that there are more speculations than confirmations." Qinglong answered vaguely.

"Actually, we have also thought about this possibility, but who will do these things?" Wu Se is still very confused: "Cang Dao is invisible and not concrete. It is impossible for it to do such things."

Worried that he had not made it clear, Wu Se further explained: "What I mean is that human babies are brought to this world from one place, and then secretly arranged in newly married families of lost people, and let them raise humans as their own children. That's it. Cangdao can't do complex and complicated things, right?"

Douhu nodded, he understood.

Douhu looked back at Qinglong and asked tentatively: "Is there a possibility that Cangdao really did it like this? However, Cangdao didn't do it himself, but appointed someone else to do it, such as..."

"Beast." Wu Color intercepted.

Qinglong said nothing.

"I think it should be one of the three beasts of delusion, life and death, doing this." Douhu used his imagination: "And doesn't there be an enemy camp and a neutral camp among the delusion beasts? It's completely possible. "

"We have never seen living or dead animals." Wu Color said.

"The Qilin Guild said yes, so it means yes." Douhu deliberately brought the topic to Qinglong.

Qinglong smiled: "Douhu, don't make excuses. I can only tell you that living and dead beasts must exist. I can't comment on anything else."

"Old Long, now we are all in the same boat, what else can't be said?" Douhu smiled playfully.

"How about this."

Qinglong also took a step back: "When the mission is over, I will report to President Qilin and leave it to him to judge. If he thinks that the topic we just discussed is related to the Cang Mother Cult and the Scarlet Tide, he will naturally tell everyone."

"Haha, this is the best."

Douhu took another sip of wine: "At this stage, survival is the most important thing. If you still have cards in your hands, don't keep them."
