Lord of Secrets

Horus then took out the decayed things from the "tombstone", and a few yellowed parchments appeared in front of him.

He was well educated and was not unfamiliar with Yuri language. He immediately looked at the contents slowly, and his brows wrinkled unconsciously.

...

"On the sixth day after arriving in the village, I felt more and more strange... My intuition told me that I had to write something down..."

"On the first day, I came to a village. The people here were not repulsive to me, nor were they close to me, so I slowly built a good relationship with them...

"At night, the fog swallowed the entire village. Rom warned me not to go out at night. I took a look at the blue moon outside that was covered, and did not go out...

"On the second day, I heard some legends about Damonas here, which made me feel very interesting. As a 'psychic', I feel that I can find some here. Something different...

"On the third day,...

"On the fourth day,...

"On the fifth day, I became more and more familiar with the villagers here, and our relationship became better and better... But I had to leave... However, Rom accidentally revealed that there were relics of Damonas on the top of the Dilafi Peak...

"It was just some news I heard from those villagers that I gave up the idea. That was not something I could get... I didn't want to die yet..."

Horus could feel from the diary of this outsider that the other party did not seem to have any cruel or evil tendencies, just like an ordinary traveler, who was just a little curious about this village.

Then, he continued to read on.

"On the sixth day, I felt that I was becoming more and more depressed, and the spirit in my body seemed to become 'lazy'... Although Romci is an ordinary person, I think I should talk to him about these mists, which may give me answers... But his words made me feel that no one could solve my doubts...

"On the seventh day, I felt that I should leave this village. The villagers felt that there were some secrets hidden, but they did not reveal them... I could not stay here any longer, and I didn't have much time... Romci kept me and hoped that I would leave tomorrow, and I agreed...

"...On the eighth day, I couldn't get out! No matter how I walked, I ended up back in the village! This village is definitely weird, and I am trapped here!"

Horus could see that the handwriting was somewhat smudged, and there were some traces of scribbling and force. Obviously, the outsider was a little uneasy and scared at the time. Horus immediately thought of what Lem said before, that he was sure that he could not leave Dilafei Peak.

However, Horus was a little confused about the outsider returning to the village. He frowned and looked at the yellowed paper in a daze. Although Romtz's words were somewhat unreliable, he still recalled what Romtz had said before.

Immediately, he thought, is it possible to be induced to the top of the Dilafi Peak by the fog only at night? Therefore, during the day, no matter how lost the outsiders were, they still did not disappear.

After pondering for a while, Horus picked up another parchment.

"I suddenly remembered the scene when I proposed to the villagers to leave the village, they smiled and waved goodbye to me. That smile is very weird now! It makes me feel a chill.

"I can't believe it at all. They are just ordinary people, and I am a 'psychic', but I actually feel scared. I have witnessed many deaths, I fear death, even if I hope to stay away from death, but I never fear death! ”

It’s different from the “Romz” who was very afraid of death. What happened during this period? Was “Romz” Romz, or was it dominated by outsiders... And it would make a “psychic” uneasy and fearful... Horus was confused when he saw this, and then he put aside his doubts and continued to read.

“The more I think about it, the more uneasy I feel. But more than ten times, I have been lost in the black fog and returned to the village more than ten times... My physical strength is no longer enough... I can only return to the village...

“They didn’t feel anything strange about my return, and they were still the same as usual... I think I must calm down, after all, I am still a ‘psychic’...

“I finally overcame my fear, and I think I might find something at night... Then I decided to go out and take a look at night. I think Romz and these villagers are definitely problematic... If I didn’t come back...

“Oh my God! Death, I found that this village actually hides a terrifying secret... Those villagers are actually skeletons!”

Skeleton... Horus’ pupils shrank slightly, and he instantly felt a touch of cold air penetrate into his heart.

He looked down quickly, he wanted to know the truth.

"I entered Wright's room and saw that his bed was full of skeletons. The familiar Wright was gone, but I could tell that these skeletons were Wright and his wife...

"I felt my heart start beating fast at that time, but this long-lost feeling scared me...

"After more than ten seconds, I went to explore other people's houses with a confused mind, but those villagers were all skeletons without exception... I found Romci, and the skeleton on the bed was also an old man's skeleton..."

"I don't know what to do..."

Horus could feel the mood of the outsider at that time. This weird thing was frightening. He was also a little uneasy now. Although he could face the skeleton calmly, he could not accept that the villagers he had lived with for a few days had already died.

"In the past few days, I have accepted this truth, but I wanted to seek an answer. In the end, I found the truth that scared me even more in an abandoned house...

"Hundreds of years ago, a bloody incident occurred in the village...

"Because at night, someone would disappear in the village. The population of the village slowly decreased... This made them panic, but they could not leave... The next time, they found that people related to Rom and others were not will be affected.

"So, those villagers went crazy and surrounded Romji and other men who were related to him. The villagers wanted to suck their blood, and women were the target of the villagers to reproduce the next generation...

"This bloody night finally ended, and the villagers who absorbed the blood of Romci and others also turned into dead souls..."

That scene seemed to appear in Horus's mind, which made him feel a little uncomfortable, and at the same time, he had more doubts in his heart.

If the villagers were the souls of the dead, he could not be unaware that the "gravekeepers" were extremely sensitive to the souls of the dead.

"As a 'psychic', I can't tell that they are dead souls. There must be a higher level of mystery here. I suspect it is these black mist..."

Seeing this, Horus felt that this might be the reason.

"Whenever outsiders enter the village.

"The dead souls sleeping on the bones will wake up. They are normal during the day, and they have no memory of that night. Only a few people know the truth about this matter, such as Romji and others... and as soon as they arrive Will fall asleep at night...

“After outsiders enter the village, it is basically impossible to find the way out, because the road is in a cave leading to the top of the mountain... And once you go to that place at night, you will be lost in the black mist...

"And as long as the outsider stays in the village for seven days and is assimilated by the black mist, then if the villagers kill the outsider, the outsider can replace the villagers who killed the outsider, and the souls imprisoned here can be liberated and reborn. , obtained the qualification to leave..."

Horus, who was like a corpse, couldn't help but tremble a little at this moment. He had never experienced anything like this before. Only when he saw Romji's notes did he realize the darkness and weirdness of this world.

He then looked at the last piece of parchment.

"As long as the outsiders are safe and alive, as time slowly passes, the memories of those villagers will be restored, and that bloody night will eventually be repeated.

"This time is about fourteen days...

"And once the outsider dies, the village will return to silence, and the dead souls will continue to sleep..."

…

"Romji and the others didn't take action against me. I don't know why. The notes I found clearly indicate that they had memories from the beginning..."

…

"I had been on that road at night, but I was afraid and didn't dare to go on and look for the cave, because I knew there must be greater danger over there. This was my intuition..."

…

"On the thirteenth day, that is, today, I can't stand it any longer, and I want to take action... I secretly killed a villager, but he came back to life strangely, but he didn't have the memory of me killing him... …

"I have been assimilated by the black mist. Although I feel that my spirituality has been suppressed, I can still use it... So I plan to find Romji for a showdown, and I want to know how to leave.

"Thones Nabe!"

The parchment record is gone here.

Horus put the parchments in his arms, sat on the chair, and tapped on the table in the darkness.

The final result should be what "Romji" said before, Thornes finally merged with Romji's soul... Based on the changes in the tone of the parchment, it can be judged that these black mists should be able to affect people's personalities. , the originally gentle Thornes started killing people... no, killing ghosts...

But there are still many doubts! If they are dead souls, why did "Romji" use "White Rose of Betrayal" to kill Snebi and Tesyi... So, do dead souls have blood...

There is another question, Lem should have killed an outsider and finally left the village... and why Romji didn't kill Thorns... was he too old to kill him, or did he want to keep him? …

Many questions flashed through Horus's mind, and suddenly he thought that only the presence of outsiders would prevent the village from becoming dead.

Romji doesn't want to fall into deep sleep, which would allow him to continue searching for the remains of Damonas...but he can definitely kill outsiders and be reborn...

Horus's originally dead brain suddenly felt like it was about to explode, and he had no way of knowing what the truth was.
