Fake Ancient God

After discovering the abnormality of this group of church members, the three stopped.

They were hesitating, whether to go forward to test it, or turn around and leave. Don't cause trouble, let's talk to another group of church people.

But it didn't take long, someone helped them make a decision.

I saw a few people who also wore church uniforms came in from the corner of the street. Looking at the "rank" of the uniforms, they were obviously much higher than those who lost their shadows.

The leader was a familiar face.

It can't be said that they are very familiar, but at least Nie Yuan and the others have seen this person's photos and resumes several times.

It is the Bishop of the Church of Order in Ruiyan City, Dennis.

As soon as Dennis came, he found Nie Yuan and the others. Seeing that the three of them were standing still, they looked at him with a half-smile.

He didn't continue to pretend to be blind, and after explaining a few words to his companions, he walked straight forward.

When he passed under the street lamp, the eyes of Nie Yuan and the others all swept to the ground.

Well, there is a shadow, this guy seems to be normal at the moment.

Dennis stood in front of Nie Yuan, and even smiled kindly at Nancy, who was on his neck, and extended his hand to say hello.

Naturally, Nancy ignored him, rolled her eyes, and said, "Silly hat."

Now that the organization has been found, the curse on him has been removed, and the church even knows about the relationship between Buck's Bookstore and Earl Lillian.

Naturally, Nancy doesn't have to be forced to sell cuteness for a living, as she used to do, to sell her business everywhere to gain sympathy.

Parts of nature can also be exposed.

Dennis wasn't surprised by her performance either. As if she didn't hear it, she said to Nie Yuan:

"Looking at how you looked just now, do you want to exchange information with us?"

"Then it depends on whether you have information of the same value to exchange."

Nie Yuan responded by holding Nancy's two ankles, like pulling the scarf around her neck.

Dennis laughed and said, "It seems that Buck's Bookstore has indeed unearthed a lot of information. It's not like a simple wild way. By the way, what about the other two?"

Nie Yuan replied, "They naturally have their own affairs."

"So, even if old Buck isn't here, you can still make the call?"

"You can understand that too."

"Well, tell me, if there is any discovery, if the value is great enough, I will definitely respond with the same key clues."

"Although what you said first will definitely suffer, who knows if you will fool us in turn, but..."

Nie Yuan paused for a moment, then said seriously: "But it's not a big problem. If you really fool us as fools, I'll beat people."

"Bite it and won't let it go!"

Nancy started to make up for her knife again, grinning her teeth, and her expression was extremely "fierce".

Dennis laughed again and said, "Don't worry, I definitely won't hide it on purpose. At this moment, it's not a deal anymore. If we can solve this situation together, then it is necessary to join hands."

Nie Yuan nodded, but he still didn't directly tell all his discoveries. Instead, he first threw out a tentative word, saying:

"Have you discovered that the force field of Perth Town actually follows a certain central will? Just like the words of the elders, they can follow the law."

Dennis frowned slightly and said, "After so many explorations and experiments, we naturally have related discoveries. The elders can indeed represent the will of the entire Perth Town most of the time.

But when we communicated with her, we found that some of her words, which seemed to be just old people's chatter, seemed to imply some other wills mixed in.

In other words, she was like a 'speaker' on very rare occasions.

Therefore, rather than her ability to speak the law, we want to explore who she is helping to spread the word, or who grants her the ability to speak the truth. "

Hearing Dennis's words, Nie Yuan almost knew that the other party really wanted to exchange information properly.

Because this also matched some of his guesses.

When I said goodbye to the elder last time, the warning given by others didn't sound like an old man who was just talking about himself there.

It is a kind of strong warning and intimidation.

Then the existence that made her say those words might be the root cause of the Perth Town incident that gave her the ability to follow her words.

Judging from the answer given by the handwriting of truth just now, the elder and Adri may have a deeper relationship.

After all, all the strange things were done by Adrien, who had disappeared.

But it is unlikely that he is the abstract source behind it all.

In the archives, he was a very normal person in his early years. To say that he suddenly became a source of infection, it is somewhat possible, but to say that he suddenly becomes an abstract source, then the probability is slim.

Nie Yuan pondered for a while, then continued: "You should also start investigating Karina, Auston, and Adrien."

Dennis confirmed: "Of course, the photo in your hands is Lillian's original rubbing from us.

You all know to start with them, how can we not think of it, and there are indeed some discoveries. "

Nie Yuan was excited and asked, "What is it?"

Dennis gave him a "little cub" look.

Originally, it's better that you throw out valid information first, and I'll give feedback based on the situation.

In the end, as you said it, you just went with the flow and began to turn my words upside down.

On the contrary, it was you who did not shake out any key information.

This guy has a brilliant mind.

But Dennis still didn't bother, so he chose to tell Nie Yuan directly, saying:

"You came from that direction. You should have already visited the old house of Adrien, right?"

"Well, I didn't find anything. His family disappeared, along with him."

"Yes, we went a lot earlier than you, and we didn't find anything. All traces of his existence have evaporated from the world.

But not long ago, when we were looking for the replaced members, we noticed some clues, that is...

Adri's old house seems to overlap with the old man's house. "

Originally, the church's actions tonight were like throwing a **** out. We must quickly come up with something practical and send it to the Wangcheng church.

As Dennis just said, as long as Buck's Bookstore can help, there is really no need for them to hide and tuck.

"Overlap?"

Nie Yuan continued to ask deeply, and said, "Does it mean that Adri's home and the elder's home were spliced ​​together from the inside by some kind of force?"

Dennis nodded and said: "Almost, we were biting our heads and went to the elder to investigate, and found that something that was supposed to be Adrie appeared in her home.

From this, it can be deduced that the old house where Adri disappeared, including the traces of his own existence, should be in the elder's home.

However, it is hard for us to judge the extent of this overlap, because when we want to explore further, the elders have already started chasing people, and we have also lost some people. "

"It's really useful information."

Nie Yuan expressed his appreciation for this and said, "It seems that the church is not as incompetent as imagined."

Dennis' face darkened when he heard the words, and he said, "It's really like your master, arrogant and speechless. If you change the place, I'll definitely have to try the depth of your Buck's bookstore."

Nie Yuan corrected: "What kind of master is not the master, how ugly, it is said that the partner is more pressing."

Dennis waved his hand and said: "The gap is not big, anyway, you are already bound to Lillian, so next, can you show some useful things? If you want to solve the incident here, follow-up We will definitely work together again.”

Nie Yuan stretched out two fingers, put them in front of Dennis, and said, "Two things, the first one, if the elder is the spokesperson of Pass Town's will, then Edrie should be the executor of all the strange things here. "

"What do you mean?" It was Dennis' turn to ask.

"Literally, Adri has become the incarnation of the rules here. No matter how mysterious things are, they are actually enforced by invisible ones." Nie Yuan explained.

Dennis pondered, and then said: "You mean Adri, who is already in Perth Town, everywhere? Those weird events seem to be traceable, but it's all Adri's power that makes everything happen? "

"Roughly the same."

"Then how did you come to the conclusion?"

"I can't tell you this. In short, I didn't lie to you. Our interests are the same."

"Okay, I will let people deepen the line of Adrien, and don't ask about the excess. You must have your own method. What about the second thing?"

"The second thing, actually, I thought you knew it at first, but after you've been here for so long, your eyes are normal, and you don't look at the ground, you think you must have been completely blinded by Perth Town."

With that said, Nie Yuan pointed to the church members in the distance and said, "Look, aren't their feet weird?"

Dennis turned around and looked around, but he didn't seem to find anything.

Then he asked Nie Yuan again, "What do you want to say?"

Nie Yuan smiled and said, "As expected, it wasn't deceived, didn't you realize that many of them have no shadows?"

"shadow??"

Dennis was surprised when he heard the words: "What is a shadow?"

But after saying this, he suddenly realized it, his eyes narrowed, and he looked back again.

He remembered.

It turns out that there is such a thing as shadows in the world.

Just now he thought that he had heard some words he had never heard before.

However, it was the bishop, and his doubts were infinitely magnified between the lightning and flint in his heart, and he instantly caught some inspiration.

In this way, he got rid of the blindness of the Perth Town force field and regained his normal cognition in this regard.

Dennis murmured: "It seems that the force field has strengthened, and it is rapidly assimilating us. Even if I have been to Pass Town many times and the resistance has weakened a lot, it shouldn't be so fast, and there will be cognitive blindness..."

Nie Yuan said lightly: "Yes, it can also be deduced from this, Pass Town is so hard-working, only assimilating your cognition in the aspect of shadow, there must be a bigger disaster brewing.

Maybe it is by taking away your shadows, thereby gradually corrupting everyone. If no one reminds you, when you react, it will be too late. "

Dennis turned his head, looked at Nie Yuan and said, "Then why don't you have cognitive impairment in this regard?"

Nie Yuan shrugged, letting Nancy on his neck sway along with him, and said, "It may be that we come here less often, and it's not so easy to be targeted like this. In short, stay away from people who have no shadows for the time being, maybe just do it. Something weird happened."

Dennis was about to speak when he heard the words, but suddenly stopped.

I saw Nie Yuan's surprised eyes, he slowly took two steps back, and then replied:

"OK."

Seeing this, Nie Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then his expression froze.

He didn't immediately turn around to verify something, but stared at Dennis in front of him and said:

"Don't tease me, Bishop Dennis, I can really hit people with heavy fists."

Dennis didn't answer, just looked at him quietly, smiling and polite.

Now, Nie Yuan almost has a result in his heart.

Because Nancy on his neck didn't answer his own words.

But after seeing Dennis's action, he turned around and looked behind them. In front of them were dim street lights, so the shadows were behind them.

Although it is very blurry, if you look closely, you can still vaguely distinguish it.

Nancy twisted her body and waved her arms as if to confirm something.

Nie Yuan also slowly turned his head and glanced at the ground behind him.

Well, there are shadows.

But it is very small, and it does not extend directly from under his feet.

Nancy twisted her body just to verify whether this shadow was part of Nie Yuan.

It turned out that only her figure was projected on the ground, and Nie Yuan's shadow had already left home.

Nie Yuan raised his hand, lifted Nancy a little from his neck, and put it down again.

During this process, he also saw that the dark shadow on the ground did not belong to him.

"Wodiu..."

Nie Yuan couldn't help but scolded in a low voice.

Just now, he was still mocking those little bastards, but they are really weak chickens.

Not long after I came to town, I even lost my shadow.

In the end, when I looked back, I was the same.

This also made Nie Yuan suddenly recall a lot of things.

He remembered that on the way to Adrien's old house, he suddenly felt something and looked behind him.

Aztec and Nancy, on the other hand, did not notice the strangeness behind them.

Because at that time, they had already walked past the street lights and entered the shadow area.

Your own shadow should have left at that time, right?

Then they walked along the way, they didn't pass a few street lights, and Nancy happened to be on Nie Yuan's shoulder, so a shadow appeared under him, but it didn't belong to him.

The clear moonlight cast down, making the already dim shadow even more blurred.

Many coincidences made them not aware of any abnormality in a short period of time.

or……

In fact, you already have a cognitive bias in this regard?

After all, the Aztecs just found out at a glance that the church members in front of them had no shadows under their feet.

And I read it twice and found nothing unusual.

Just like Dennis, when he heard the keyword "shadow", he suddenly realized and reacted instantly.

The **** town of Perth...

"When you looked back just now?" Aztec asked.

"It should be." Nie Yuan sighed.

"Do you feel anything unusual now?" Dennis also asked. He wanted to know from Nie Yuan what would happen if the shadow was lost, so that the people in the church could be warned in advance.

Nie Yuan glanced at him, shook his head and said, "No, I've been communicating with you for so long, can't you see it, and, even if I really have a problem, I'm the hardest to notice, isn't it? "

"That's true... You should be no exception."

Dennis was also devastated when he heard this.

Because when he looked up just now, he found that there were not a few church members who had lost their shadows.

If these people have problems, once they break out, I don't know what the scene will be.

Not to mention Nie Yuan, who was also recruited. At that time, Buck's Bookstore will also become an uncertain factor.

"Do you want to go back and have a look?"

Aztec spoke again and said, "I remember the street light you noticed at the time. Maybe the street light is the medium that lets the shadows escape."

"very possible!"

Dennis was still worried at first, but his eyes lit up when he heard the words, and said, "So you were under a street lamp, did you lose your shadow, a street lamp just happens to be something that can cast shadows.

But certainly not every street lamp has this effect. After all, I have passed many street lamps, and I haven't found any problems so far.

In this case, it is necessary to go back and have a look, and also found a clue, that is, don't pass under the street lights! "

"What you said makes sense."

Nie Yuan first agreed with their words, then changed the conversation, looked into the distance, and said, "But let's deal with the things in front of us first."

Hearing what he said, everyone noticed something and followed his gaze.

Then his expression turned serious.

I saw ~www.readwn.com~ on the street, a huge black shadow turned the corner and appeared in everyone's field of vision.

The light of the street lamp pulled the black shadow like a monster with claws and claws, and almost cut off the entire street horizontally.

Taking a closer look, the huge black shadow was actually made of the corpses of beasts piled up.

The corpses are basically intact, and there are no obvious scars even on the fur, as if they died suddenly.

And in front of the mountain of corpses, there was a strong shirtless man with a two-finger hemp rope tied around his waist.

It was this hemp rope that ties the beasts behind him in a hasty way, so that they were barely piled up and not scattered.

This fierce man was dragging his mountain-like prey straight, his footsteps were dull and powerful, and he slowly walked towards the crowd.

His eyes have already noticed that there seem to be a lot of uninvited guests in the town tonight.

It just so happened that he didn't have the slightest affection for these uninvited guests.

The manuscript left by my father disappeared the next day after I had contact with these people.

On the way back, I was still thinking about it. Why did I have to go to the door to ask if it had something to do with them.

Isn't that a coincidence?

Turning around, I encountered it.

Dennis saw the arrival of this evil star, and the flickering eyes of the other party, and could not help but lament:

"There has been no news of him in the town for three days. As usual, he goes out hunting, which usually lasts for a week. When there is enough prey, or when the peel needs to be replenished, he will clean up a little on the edge of Perth Town.

Sure enough, we got serious, and Perth Town got serious too. "

Hunter.

Return from hunting early.
