I come from the world of punishment

The old man's home does not look wealthy, and the furnishings are very old.

"Are you from out of town?" The old man held the candle and carefully held it half-closed with his hands to prevent the light from escaping.

"Yes." Luo Huai nodded. He imitated the old man's posture and squatted on the ground.

"No wonder you're standing outside in a daze even after dusk."

"What will happen at night?" Luo Huai realized that this world might not be normal either.

The fall of an angel may not be that simple.

"There will be deep divers coming out of the sea, and they will capture everyone who holds the light." The old man said. After speaking, he looked at the candle in his hand, and after thinking about it, he blew it out in one breath.

"Deep Diver? What is that?" Luo Huai asked. This shouldn't be the same thing as the one he knew, right? But upon hearing it, it seems quite similar.

"I don't know, I just know that they are a kind of monster. Everyone who has seen them has been dragged into the deep sea, and no one can see their appearance clearly."

"Then how do you know it's called the Deep Diver?" Luo Huai immediately discovered a logic bug.

"The nuns from the church in our village told us that the church is the only place where the lights can be turned on at night." The old man actually didn't quite understand, so he continued, "The name of the Deep Diver comes from the oracle given by the nun. Learned from it.”

"By the way, what are you doing here? We haven't had anyone here for a long time."

"I'm here... looking for something. Have you heard of the Deep Sea Lord?" Luo Huai saw that the old man was quite enthusiastic and asked directly.

But this kind of clue is not something that ordinary people can know. The old man just thought about it for a moment, shook his head and said: "I haven't heard of it. What kind of legend is it? But we don't have any lords here, let alone Haili. .”

Not necessarily... Luo Huai thought to himself, after all, even the deep divers have come out, so it's not surprising that there is someone who can control them.

"Maybe you can go to the church tomorrow and have a look. The nun is the most knowledgeable person in our village... She also serves as the children's teacher."

"All right……"

Just rest for now.

Strangely enough, the old man didn't have a bedroom in his house. His way of resting was to find a small corner and take out two blankets, spread them one over the other and lie down.

He dared to do this just after letting a stranger into the house, so the old man became very heart-broken.

Luo Huai, who had nothing to do, walked to the window and looked outside through the gap in the curtains.

The street was dark and extremely silent. Although he had night vision, his field of view was limited and he saw nothing.

He closed his eyes gently, and the eyes of destiny on his forehead opened.

His vision extended through the darkness, no longer restricted, and he saw several figures walking on the street.

It's a bit like a fish man, but in comparison, it has more human parts. The body is between strong and bloated, and the head is replaced by the shape of a fish. However, the head of this fish is not normal, and it is impossible to tell what species it is. At most, it can only be seen that it is in the water, and its outward-turned fangs are very ferocious.

He was also covered with something that looked like waterweed or kelp. He walked on the uneven bricks and tiles, making a dragging sound and leaving a long water stain behind.

"But..." Luo Huai couldn't help but think, "If the purpose of the deep divers coming ashore is to kidnap the person who emits the light, then there is no one who turns on the light now. Are they just going to go ashore and walk around?"

Obviously not, then there is only one answer.

church.

Only there can emit light in the night, and the Deep Diver should be heading there now.

The nun must not be an ordinary person, otherwise she would have been captured by the deep divers long ago.

Luo Huai concluded that she should be a believer and had some means to drive away the deep divers or deter them.

We can't wait until daytime. The behavioral interaction between the nun and the deep diver may reveal a lot of key information.

The blood of fusion flowed out, wrapping Luo Huai while absorbing the surrounding light.

If you want to be invisible in the dark, you don't necessarily need to simulate black. You only need to absorb light to achieve the same effect.

Then he climbed out of the window and closed the window smoothly.

He trotted silently along the water stains left by the deep divers.

The town is larger than expected, and the distance the deep divers walk is not a straight line.

Luo Huai simply pulled the spider thread and jumped to a higher house.

Looking at the endless mountains and sea in the distance, there is no road leading to the outside. It is no wonder that no outsiders have come to this small town for a long time.

A sense of dissonance lingered in Luo Huai's heart.

"How did this situation develop?"

How did a small town grow to such a large scale with no roads leading outside?

Especially some of the facilities in the small town are not something that people in a small town can figure out on their own.

After watching for a while, Luo Huai finally discovered where this sense of dissonance came from.

The entire town seemed to have been hollowed out and stuffed in. There was no trace of the natural development of the community at all.

It's like this town was that big in the first place.

However, it is still unknown what the secret is, so let’s get down to business now.

Luo Huai had already noticed a bright light in the center of the town in the distance, which should be the church.

After several climbs, Luo Huai arrived near the church.

The faint sound of the piano came from the backyard of the church, and the tone was gentle, adding a sense of tranquility to this dead night.

Luo Huai walked around the church, crossed several houses, and came to the backyard of the church.

A nun in a pure white robe sat by the fountain in the backyard, her face invisible, with a compact little harp on her knees.

The slender and slender fingers plucked the strings, producing a gentle trembling sound, while the ethereal voice whispered a gentle melody.

Under the night sky, this is a beautiful scene that can be called a picture scroll.

But the surroundings of this scroll are not something ordinary people dare to approach.

Just a few meters apart, UU reading www. uukanshu.net There is a transition from light to something frightening.

A dozen deep divers gathered quietly outside the backyard fence.

They made a dull murmur, like the sound produced by organs clogged with water and foam.

Well, it's like the last gasp of a drowned person.

But the nun and the deep diver, who were both light and dark, were living in perfect harmony at this moment.

The light did not dispel the darkness, and the darkness did not want to swallow the light.

Luo Huai knew that he couldn't go out at this time, and the balance couldn't be broken, otherwise both sides might not be pleased.

Wait until it's over...

But this wait lasted for a long time, until the white curtain began to rise in the east, and the darkness had to retreat.

The nun's song gradually faded, and finally returned to the tranquility of dawn.

This tranquility is different from the night, with a little more vitality.
