Chapter 212 Today's Arkham Asylum Is Calm
Arkham Asylum.

During the afternoon air release time, the patients crowded in the small yard.The weather was scorching hot, and a small conflict erupted between the black and black crowd for a shady place under the tree. The guards shouted loudly, and several people were beaten black and blue.

People with a sense of justice may find it absurd: this scene, which was still unpleasant 100 years ago, can appear in the United States in the 21st century in such a grand manner.

The strange thing is that so far, every patient who has left Arkham Asylum has been full of praise for the service of the hospital, and even showed a little nostalgia, as if this madhouse is their real home.

Chen Qiang's patient in the virtual world, Bigby, crouched on the ground and curled up in a corner of the yard.His back was arched, and his face was like a shriveled mummy, so old that he would fall into the grave at any time.

Even the lunatics in the lunatic asylum, no one wanted to get close to this wizened little old man.

The disheveled Mr. Michael is one of the few people willing to approach him.Even Chen Qiang, who has seen Bigby in the virtual world, would have to spend a lot of effort to recognize him who is so decadent in the real world, but Miguel's appearance is exactly the same as in the virtual world.

"Bigby."

Bigby glanced at his old friend, but said nothing.

"It's about time," whispered Miguel, "time to tell me—what happened after they took you away?"

Miguel knew that the brains of every patient who left the asylum could not be intact.Amnesia is the treat of the lucky ones, some of whom are no longer who they used to be inside.

And Bigby—he was taken away and then sent back. He still seems to be in a normal mind, but his whole person has become older and more decayed, almost a different person.The strange thing is, with the Migo family's rich experience in human anatomy, Miguel can conclude that Bigby's life is still strong.

"What obligation do I have to tell you?" Bigby sneered, "I am a great magician. Even if they want to do something to me, they have to weigh their own weight."

"I had a dream yesterday," Miguel said quietly, "I dreamed that we had a new patient. He was a sage in ancient China, Xuan Jun, and the national teacher of the Great Xia Dynasty. Wisdom and powerful allies. With their support, the three of us escaped from the madhouse together."

"How could Xuanjun be caught?"

"makes sense……"

"Not necessarily. Look, how did you and I get caught? I was still Merlin."

"You're just a fake."

"Then you are the shame of Migo."

"I was just framed. When I get out, I'm going to kill them all..."

Neither of them noticed that directly above, in the dean's office with bright and clean windows, a strange man wearing a top hat and an old-fashioned suit dressed like a [-]th-century British gentleman was overlooking everything in the yard.

The sun was scorching, and the air conditioner was not turned on in the office, but the man did not sweat a drop.

"The 'power channel of the old rulers in this world' has not been achieved yet," he frowned, playing with the yellow seal pendant inlaid in jade around his neck, "it is still a little short of being able to be used as a weapon. Need... more A lot of time and . . . excitement.”

……

A black pickup truck slowly drove past the road outside the lunatic asylum.After throwing off Police Officer Buck, Chen Qiang and others circled around the city, and then wandered around the madhouse.

Chen Qiang, Qin Yixian and Cecilu all remembered clearly: in the virtual world, they witnessed the ending of the coming of the two gods on this street.However, at this moment, everything seemed extremely peaceful.It was sunny and sunny.

Chen highlighted the "myth map" on his mobile phone and expanded the search range to the maximum.

If the "Glass Altar" (myth monitor) installed in City D is used, or the streets and alleys of Arkham are searched, Chen Qiang has the confidence to use the myth radar to dig out all the mysterious elements of Arkham.

However, since the police in Arkham have been alarmed, it is better not to be too ostentatious.The glass altar was too big, even if it was carried from the underground passage of the ghouls, it would inevitably attract some people's attention.

Chen Qiang doesn't want to be regarded as a "despicable outsider" in the eyes of local citizens, wasting the advantage of the enemy's openness and our secrets in vain.

On the "Mythological Map", several light spots quickly appeared.

Up to two digits, the moving white light spots—Chen Qiang guessed that they were the security guards and nurses of the madhouse, pacing back and forth in the corridor and yard.There are also two green light spots (one of which is only separated from itself by a wall), and they are both extremely bright, belonging to a very powerful "upper race".

But Chen Qiang stared at the motionless dazzling spot of light nestled in the corner of the yard.

It is the purple that represents the "Old Ones".

"..."

There is a green dot near the purple dot, and several white dots a little further away.

However, other points of light seem to not see the purple light point.Chen Qiang judged that they were still focusing on doing their own things.

Chen Qiang looked at the sky - the sky was bright and clear, the wind was smooth, and there was no sign of darkness like when the old ruler came.

"Boss, what are you looking at?" Cecilu looked at Chen Qiang suspiciously, and Chen Qiang stared at the corner of the map that was shining with purple light with monster-like eyes, even though there were actually only walls and air there.

"……nothing."

There was no sign that anything was there.

Either an Old One with the ability to be invisible or unrecognizable to the naked eye, or an item with divine power.

Just like the King in Yellow variation books are identified as purple, it is possible that other important mythological items have similar treatment.

Chen Qiang suddenly had an urge to climb over the wall and see if there was really a super short old ruler on the other side of the wall.

Then, as if reading his thoughts, the system automatically popped up a prompt to discover a new mission target.

[Control or cut off Kwache Utaos, the power channel of the passer-by in this world: not completed]

……

Kwache Utaus, a mysterious Great Old One in the shape of a squat mummy, is a decayed, ancient, foreboding ghostly shadow.

However, apart from Chen Qiang, who has read the setting book, descriptions of Kwache Utaos are extremely rare, whether it is the famous "Necronomicon", or "Secret Book of Seven Chapters of Xuanjun", "Gera Neither the Apocalypse nor the Nakot Manuscript can find any records about it.

Among the surviving classics in the world, the only one that records the name of Kuache Utaos is the "Cannamagus Testament".

Quache Utaos is a cold and terrifying god.Anyone who comes into contact with Quache Utauth will immediately age and die, and then be reduced to a pile of dust.

Step on the dust and pass by, and everything will die.

It is said that a human being can make a contract with Kwache Utaus, and Kwache Utaus will gradually twist the person's spine into a bow shape, and at the same time give the person unimaginable strength.
