Chapter 174 The God of Sorrow
The situation in front of him is not the movement that a small ceremony should cause.

Not to mention the workers who were bewitched by the merman and took the initiative to die, but the turbulent movement in the sky was completely unlike the ceremony of holding the moon.

Both Romon and Ferranca felt that things were going in a bad direction, but at the moment they didn't have a solution.

The clouds in the sky are getting thicker and thicker, and the huge vortex formed is spinning faster and faster.

In the vortex, a monster head gradually emerged, with terrifying pressure.

"No, this is definitely not the ceremony of holding the moon! That tear shark is summoning another thing, and it's definitely not easy to deal with." Ferranka just wanted to leave at this moment.

But after he said this.

After hesitating for a moment, he stopped.

Now is the time for the ceremony, and if you want to solve the problem, now is undoubtedly the best time.But Ferranka withdrew at this time, and it would be very troublesome to help after that.If the power of the Church of Steam cannot resolve this upheaval, the entire industrial area may be affected.

It seems to confirm his conjecture.

A very powerful voice sounded in everyone's ears:

"I am Herac, the bishop of the Church of Steam. All the awakened people here tonight, immediately retreat 500 meters away. The tear shark is using its own life to summon the God of Sadness. You will only become sacrifices if you go there rashly. If you want to help, You can join the awakened people of the Church of Steam! This incident is a disaster involving the power of evil gods, and you may die at any time."

This sound echoed several times in a row, and finally disappeared.

Romon and Ferranka looked at each other.

After thinking for a while, Ferranca said: "Romon, you should leave first, this matter is too involved, there is no need for you to take risks. I am a public official and I receive the salary of the empire every month, so I can't work here. Time to retreat."

Romon did not expect this guy to be so responsible, which shocked him greatly.

But Romon still asked: "What is the God of Sadness?"

Being able to call it a god is obviously not a big deal, at least it has to be on the same level as that dark toad, right?
Romon knew that there were many strange beings, but he just didn't know what the ability of this sad god was.

Ferranka said solemnly: "I have only heard of the God of Sorrow. There used to be his evil priests in some small countries, but I didn't expect that this merman would actually summon him. I don't know the more detailed information. These materials It will not be published, because it involves strange existence, and publishing it is likely to expand their dissemination and influence."

There are not many strange existences that have not been announced, all to reduce the influence of these things.

Otherwise, once it spreads widely, it will only cause more terrifying consequences. For example, if a criminal has nowhere to go and directly sacrifice himself to the evil god, it will cause considerable trouble.Of course, doing this has both advantages and disadvantages. Most of the Awakened people are unaware of these strange things, and even many Awakened people in the church have not even heard of them.

This leaves them wondering how to deal with such incidents.

Ferranka is only familiar with the name of this sad god, and he has no idea what the other party's ability is.

"Leave now, or you won't be able to leave later."

Ferranca said to Romon.

However, Romon looked at the sky, shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's too late, the summoned thing is about to come out! The surrounding fog has not dissipated, and the fog feels more dangerous than before."

Romon's hunch was accurate.

I saw that the vortex composed of clouds in the sky stopped rotating at this moment, standing still in mid-air, like a gate to hell.

"Wow!"

A voice resembling a man and a ghost, full of enormous spiritual power, came from behind the vortex.

Everyone in the pearl processing factory felt a sense of sadness that was irresistible and endurable, welling up in their hearts.

It's like losing a loved one at this moment.

A great sadness hangs over the place.

Romon knew very well that this was the ability of the thing behind the whirlpool, but no matter what, he couldn't stop the tears in his eyes. It was like he was back in his childhood and just wanted to cry.

"Is this the power of the God of Sadness? Makes people sad?"

Romon endured the discomfort in his heart and turned to look.

It turned out that Ferranka was already in tears, lying on the ground and crying, "I seem to have been tricked, my heart hurts so much, when my father passed away, I didn't feel this pain... What the hell am I living for? What's the point?"

He wept bitterly, as if talking to himself, and as if talking to Romon.

Sadness to the extreme is despair.

This is the situation of Ferranka at the moment. Because of the influence of the strange power, he no longer wants to live in his heart and has no desire to survive.

Does the ability of the God of Compassion make people suffer from jade jade disease?
No, this is even more outrageous than Yuyu disease!

Romon looked at the sky, and the monster in the huge vortex had already drilled out half of its head, like the head of a giant baby, but there were many crying faces of different shapes on the top of the head, which made people feel upset when they looked at it. Confused.

It won't be long before the monster actually descends!

It's just that the volume that is enough to compete with high-rise buildings will cause terrifying lethality.

Romon felt that he had to do something, otherwise, once this guy came out, everyone here would be overwhelmed with great sadness, and they would kill themselves without monsters.

Now he is saving people and saving himself.

Basically, the people around have lost their ability to act because of the ability to grieve, and there are very few people who can think clearly.Romon recalled the various means he had in his mind, and then filtered them one by one, and finally found that he had no means to cause harm to this kind of personality at all.

The difference is too big!
Just as Romon was thinking about countermeasures quickly in his mind, the situation changed again.

The middle-aged man in a big white robe actually stepped on the clouds and flew into the sky, facing the terrifying monster with half of its head exposed in the maelstrom.

Half of his face was covered with a steel mask, and there was a subtle gear mechanism in it.

The other party's dress and attire are obviously the guy who made everyone quit before, the bishop of the Steam Church.

After he rushed to the sky, he opened his mouth and spit, and countless clouds and mists spewed out, forming a huge cloud column that slammed into the summoned monster.

For a time, clouds and mists gathered in the sky.

The head of the monster that was about to pop up was squeezed back abruptly.

The appearance and hair of the bishop of the Steam Church became old at a very fast rate. It seemed that he could resist the power of the God of Sadness at this time, which he bought with his life.

"I can't solve the terrifying monster in the sky, but it is possible to solve the tear shark in the fountain. It is the ceremonial performer, and if it dies, the monster in the sky will definitely be affected."

Luo Meng's heart was stunned, and he glanced at the other people who were crying and couldn't communicate properly. He didn't continue wasting time, and rushed towards the fountain pool again.

Solve the tear shark!

this is the key of the problem.

Romon jumped off the roof of the factory building with a quick stride, and then walked quickly towards the fountain pool.

During the period, the feeling of sadness became more obvious, and Romon could clearly feel that his emotions were severely affected. This ability of sadness slowed down his thinking a lot, and even some despairing thoughts appeared in his mind from time to time. .

But all this did not affect his quietly approaching actions.

On the edge of the fountain pool, many Awakeners of the Steam Church gathered.

They stood here as if they were facing the enemy, and they could not solve the tear shark, because just getting close to the tear shark would be wrapped in huge sadness and unable to move. As for sinking into the grief of being unable to extricate themselves.

Romon just relied on the BUFF of the strange pavilion owner, and reached the place very close to the tear shark alone.

Then he quietly observed the tears for a while, and after reconfirming the feasibility of the plan in his mind, he instantly took out a black thing from his body and crushed it.

all of a sudden.

A strange dark curtain directly enveloped the entire pool fountain.

The shady screen is like a black eggshell, isolating all psionic prying eyes!
This is the loot [Dark Arena] that Romon looted from the fortune-teller in Claremont, a expendable relic with a strange effect, and now there is one last chance to use it!
So after Romon used it, it completely exploded into a cloud of black ashes.

However, there is no doubt about the effect of the dark arena. It allows the users of the arena to make a rule, and the two people in the arena are bound by this rule.Of course, the dark arena also consumes the user's psionic energy. The more abnormal the rules are, the more psionic energy is consumed.

And this time, the rule made by Romon is "No sound is allowed here."

In short, just shut up.

Most of the horror of the tear shark is in its voice, as long as it can't speak, the threat will be much less.

Romon stood in front of the fountain pool.

Looking up and staring at the crystalized tear shark, the other party was still sitting on the mountain of corpse puzzles, staring at him with a pair of scarlet eyes.

A moment of silence.

Because the voice was forbidden in the dark arena, neither Lei Shark nor Romon could speak.

It didn't move or make any other aggressive behavior.

Obviously, after being banned from the sound, this guy has a lot less means. Romon approached it step by step, feeling the rapid consumption of spiritual energy in his body, and knowing that the tear shark is frantically trying to break through the seal of this dark arena.

There was nothing but the calm before the storm.

There must be a quick fight.

But after approaching the pool fountain, Romon's heart was suddenly wrapped in a deep sadness, and seeing the terrifying appearance of the tear shark, he couldn't do it for a while.

What's the point of doing this yourself?
Even if he escapes from here this time, he will encounter more dangers in the future. The fate of the Awakened is already doomed, and no one can escape.

th.

Sadness to the extreme is despairing.

For a while, Romon wanted to lie down and be a lazy dog.

only.

A strange light appeared in Lei Shark's eyes. When he watched Romon gradually fall into confusion, Romon, who was already very close to it, suddenly raised his head, and the terrifying spiritual energy gathered in this fist, instantly hitting Lei Shark's body.

The opponent's crystallized body cracked open, and his eyes were full of confusion.

Obviously this human has lost his mind, why can he get out of control so quickly?

Romon retracted his hand and looked at the tear-stained body, unable to believe that the other party was killed so easily.

It was completely different from the battle he had expected before.

But think carefully.

The tear shark is equivalent to a spiritual magician.

The most terrifying ability of the other party comes from the voice, but now the voice is completely blocked, and he can't even speak, so it is equivalent to a tiger without sharp claws.

And Romon was unprepared, and all his strength exploded, so that he died under this blow.

If someone else came here, it would be extremely difficult to get close to this tear shark, let alone the chance to shoot.Romon completed this series of actions because of the dark arena and the buff bonus of the strange pavilion owner.

It looks like it's all pretty simple.

But if Romon hadn't carefully considered every step before, the Dark Arena could target these strange things, and his chances of success would be extremely slim.

Romon regained his senses and looked at the corpse of the tear shark.

On the opponent's chest, a fist-sized night pearl condensed. He didn't know if it was the moon shark pearl in the mouth of Fei Lan.But whatever it is, put it in your pocket first, and think about other things later.

In addition to this luminous pearl, there is also a small pocket on the body like a Xiuxiang bag, which should be the container it uses to hold things.

Regardless of the three sevens and twenty ones, Romon collected all the things that could be taken away, then changed his face again with the mask of the hypocrite, and left quickly after the dark arena disappeared.

And this series of things happened, and it took dozens of seconds.

Everyone was still vigilant about the black round curtain that suddenly appeared, and with that strange sadness spreading, no one saw the fleeting shadow of Romon.

Wait until the Dark Arena effect wears off.

The torn corpse of the tear shark appeared in front of everyone's eyes, which greatly cheered everyone's emotions. Although I don't know why the tear shark died after the shady scene appeared, but for the current situation, this is a good news that can cheer up the morale of the army.

Because the tear shark died, the grief in the hearts of the people also weakened a lot.The huge monster in the sky that wanted to come out through the vortex seemed to have lost the guidance given by the tear shark through the ceremony at this moment, and began to retreat.

Among them, the bishop of the Steam Church is the most fortunate.

After a while, he might really not be able to stand it anymore.

on top of the factory.

Ferranka, whose eyes were swollen from crying, suddenly woke up.

In the sky, the wind was clear and the clouds scattered, and the huge God of Sadness did not appear after all, but was wiped out in the bud.The surrounding fog also quietly faded, and the environment returned to normal.

After the fog dissipated, many monster corpses were left on the ground.

Ferranca felt a little dazed, turned to his companion and asked, "What's going on? What happened?"

Others, however, don't know.

At that time, everyone was crying for themselves, and who knows what happened next.

Just then.

Romon stood under the street lamp beside the factory building and said to Ferranka with a smile, "Bishop Herak solved that monster."

after an hour.

The people of the Church of Steam are cleaning the battlefield.

The casualties this time were very heavy, because the cause was the Steam Church's laissez-faire, and the aftermath work was also handled by the Steam Church. This time, it was obvious that the Steam Church was stealing chickens and losing money.

The Tear Shark was out of their control and was overshadowed by another force.The Church of Steam has determined that there are other hostile forces involved, and just relying on the power of the tear shark alone will not cause such a result.

But all this has nothing to do with Romon.

With Ferranka there, he quickly left the pearl processing factory. As for the situation of Rudolph and others, Romon also inquired about it, but there was no news, and the on-site processing factory was still in chaos.

Whether they survive or not depends on luck.

After the people from other forces have left.

Herac, who was wearing a big white robe, brought several masters of the Steam Church to the vicinity of the pool fountain.

Under Herac's half metal cheek, the fine mechanical gears were turning.His hair was black and white and looked very weird.After urging the secret technique to consume too much life and blood, it became like this.

At that critical moment, he had no other choice.

Once the God of Sorrow descends, the entire industrial area of ​​Jianhai will be completely destroyed, causing countless casualties.

"Bishop Herak, can you see who solved the tear shark? None of our people saw who did it, and the shark beads in the tear shark were also taken away." members asked.

Herac shook his head: "It should be someone from other forces. If you can solve this tear shark, the opponent must be not weak, and he should have used some special means. Forget it, take it away, if there is no opponent Let’s take action, we won’t solve the trouble so easily this time.”

"But now who manipulated this tear shark, we can't find out. The tear shark was destroyed and wiped out, and we didn't even have a chance to investigate." Another steam awakener regretted.

This is what Herac thought.

He glanced at the huge processing factory: "Block this place and conduct a thorough search, and there will definitely be clues. We also need to do a good job of comforting the families of the victims. This accident caused many casualties, which may be negative for the church. influences."

Several people nodded solemnly.

After arranging everything here, Herac turned to leave, and the situation of the fountain pool echoed in his mind.

Although he had previously said that his subordinates didn't need to investigate, he was also very curious about what kind of guy could solve the tear shark unknowingly.

However, the other party left very few traces. He was a very vigilant person. He could not determine the specific identity just by inferring the scene.

If Herac was in his prime, he would definitely check it out, but now that his own injuries are difficult to deal with, it is naturally impossible to be distracted by other things.

The second day after the pearl processing factory incident, the incident appeared on the front page of Jianhai Daily.

It's just that the content reported above is completely different from what Romon experienced.The above record is that a fire broke out in a pearl processing factory, and hundreds of workers were injured or killed. It was a huge industrial accident.

Romon read the newspaper while eating white bread.

"What exactly is the God of Sadness? A tear shark can summon such a powerful guy after using hundreds of lives?" He recalled the scene from last night, and he still had some lingering fears at the moment.I can't imagine how terrifying the consequences would be if the God of Sorrow really descended.

The whole thing is strange, and the cost of summoning the evil god is too low.

Just when he was thinking about it.

There was a sudden knock on the door.

Luo Meng opened the door. The other party was a well-dressed and capable man with deep eyes and serious eyes.

"Mr. Romon, I am Mr. Rudolph's lawyer. This is the item that you have notarized before. Now, according to the previous entrustment of Mr. Rudolph, I will officially hand it over to you."

There is a force behind the man.

Lifu was holding a large wooden box in his hand. Judging from the size, it should be the specimen of Rudolph's spirit-sucking monkey.Luo Meng had already given up, but he didn't expect that the lawyer would be so dedicated to his duties and sent him this thing.

He also did not expect that Rudolph actually entrusted a lawyer in advance.

Romon took the box and asked casually, "How is Mr. Rudolph?"

"I'm recuperating in the hospital. I don't know the specifics. Because of the accident at the pearl processing factory, he suffered serious injuries, and his spirit was hit. The situation is not optimistic."

After the lawyer said these words, he didn't chat with Romondo, and left after shivering politely.

Everyone's time is very busy, and Romon can't wait to close the door.

After all, Romon's heart is now on the first potion of the Menglong system, [Psychic Perception].

After preparing for so long, the materials needed for this bottle of potion have finally been collected.

When he opened the box, it turned out to be a specimen of a spirit-sucking monkey, exactly the same as the one he had seen at Rudolph's house before.

For the sake of stability, Romon also carefully checked whether the specimen had been touched, and finally determined that there was no problem, so he came to the top of the attic of the small courtyard.

There are many medicinal herbs and utensils in this small attic room, as well as various materials.

These are things that Romon collected.

The entire small attic was used by him as a spiritual material warehouse and a dispensary room.

As for the main ingredients for configuring the [Mind Perception] potion, they were all placed by Romon in the locker of the Ancient God Library.It is not easy to collect these things. If they are lost at home, wouldn't it be directly cracked.

"A pair of charming banshee eyes, ten grams of spirit-sucking monkey skull powder, and half a liter of twin sisters holy water."

Next to the burning cauldron.

Romon carefully scraped ten grams of powder from the skull of the spirit-sucking monkey, and then began to slowly add holy water to the cauldron.

Waiting for the holy water to dissolve completely.

He just added the auxiliary materials such as Burning Heart Grass and Dream You Flower, and after boiling for 5 minutes, the crucible began to boil violently.

Seize this moment.

Romon threw the Charming Banshee's eyes and the spirit-sucking monkey skull powder into the cauldron.

The eerie, chaotic howl was almost unbearable to the ears.

Romon endured the harsh scream and prepared the bottle of potion.

It was a bottle of faint blue potion, shining with a dreamy light, and a little bubble came out, it looked like a bottle of sparkling water.

Romon let out a heavy breath.

It took so long, and there were many dangers, just for this small bottle of potion.

This is the difficulty of the Underground Awakened. There is no support from any forces behind him, no help from the family, and no financial resources. It is difficult to get a bottle of ability potion.

Romon is much better than the other awakened ones.

At least there is still a job in the academy, where he can receive wages, with the help of teachers and senior sisters, and often there are not long-sighted people who come up to send money, Luo Meng is also happy to eliminate the harm for the people, so that he does not fall into the economic crisis.

It seems that after this time, we need to find a stable way to make money.

Otherwise, it is very likely that you will not be able to make a living.

Various thoughts flashed through his mind, and Romon stared at the bottle of potion in relief for a full minute, and he took a gulp of the bottle after feeling full of ritual.

Gollum.

Drink the whole bottle of potion.

Romon's body reacted.

There seemed to be a flame burning in his heart and brain, but the burning sensation was not too strong, not unbearable, and he was able to sense that his spiritual power was rapidly increasing.

From the name of spiritual perception, it is known that it should focus on the ability of the spirit and the mind.

The entire Menglong system is like this.

All the abilities of the ancient python tend to strengthen the body, only one mental scream is a mental attack, and it is not very powerful.

And the Menglong system is biased towards the spirit.

After drinking the potion, among the four colored spiritual troughs opened up on the left arm of Romon's spirit body, a faint blue light spot occupied the first spiritual trough, which represented that he had successfully acquired the ability to perceive the mind.

And the specific effect...

[Spiritual Perception]: Sensing the hearts of others, when you come into contact with other creatures, you can perceive the other's inner thoughts to a certain extent.When someone acts in relation to you, you can predict it to a certain extent.

This is the ability effect that Romon got, in short, an alternative mind reading and induction?
However, he has not used it specifically, and he still does not know how effective this ability is.But if it's really mind reading, it's a bit perverted.

No matter in battle or in daily life, this ability will play an extremely important effect.

Romon is going to find someone to try the effect of telepathy.

Get out of the room.

He came to the dessert shop next to the courtyard.

The dessert seller is a pair of grandparents. The old man is about 70 to [-] years old, and the granddaughter is only [-] or [-] years old.

Today happens to be the girl selling breakfast.

Although the two did not know their respective names, Romon was patronizing and spending almost every day, and they had long been familiar with each other.

"Here's a stack of thin butter bread."

Romon took out sixpence, and the other party quickly smiled: "Okay, please wait a moment sir."

At this moment, he quietly activated his telepathy ability, and then a very strange feeling came to his heart, as if he could hear the voice of the other party.

At this moment, what this little girl is thinking about is whether or not Luo Meng is married, what kind of work is she doing, and whether it is possible to fall in love with herself...

Uh, well, little girls of this age are really gossipy and always like to think about these things.

The first time I tried it, it felt good.

Luo Meng also tried several other stores that opened nearby, and was basically familiar with the function of this ability.

Mind perception can only perceive thoughts related to him, and other thoughts cannot perceive it, which shattered Romon's ambition to read minds.

I don't know if there will be any new changes in the future when the potion is completely digested and the proficiency of this ability becomes higher.

But even if he only perceives thoughts related to himself, he is very perverted.

This is also the first effect of mental perception, and the second effect is that when others make actions related to themselves, they can predictably sense this event.

Because there are no test subjects for this ability.

Therefore, Romon could only suppress the impetuous thoughts in his heart.

"I didn't expect these neighbors to have a good opinion of me. Is it because I often take care of their business?" Romon thought to himself.

But at this time.

He suddenly felt a palpitation, like when he was short of breath and hard to breathe, but there was still a big stone pressing on his chest.

Romon thought about it for a while, and quickly realized that this was the second effect of mental perception.

Is someone yelling at you behind your back?

Or do you make small moves behind your back to be detrimental to yourself?

Following this feeling, he carefully perceived the source of this palpitation, and two faces slowly appeared in his mind.

One was the great detective he had seen at the Pearl Factory last night, Gerald.

The other face, similar to the guy named Bertram he had killed before, was a middle-aged and elderly man.And Romon also quickly remembered that this person was Viscount Kraft, Bertram's father!
Did the two actually get mixed up?
Luo Meng frowned and raised his guard.
