Chapter 262 The Son of Yog-Sothoth

The knowledge that Doros imparted to Chen Qiang was also "insight"; he still knew, in novels and other forms, those places related to the Tentacle of Gauze Nicholas, including "strange things" around Arkham and Seven Valley.

"You've probably never heard of Dunwich. It's a small secluded village not far from Arkham Town," Pickman said as Chen Qiang didn't know it, "along the Miskanitoke River Up, Dunwich is that inconspicuous place deep in the ravine."

Chen Qiang touched his chin.

"In New England, this kind of countryside can be seen everywhere," Pickman introduced ignorantly, "Although the road conditions are bad, we set off from Arkham by car at seven o'clock in the morning, and we can reach Dunway around noon. rule."

Chen Qiang, with Erlang's legs crossed, smiled.

His smile gave Pickman a feeling that Chen Qiang had seen through everything, but the ghoul continued on.

"Dunwich is the typical quiet New England countryside," Pickman said, "like the French Hills of Arkham, only poorer and run-down, suitable for our skeleton-eaters to base."

Chen Qiang almost guessed what Pickman was worried about.But he decided to "go with" Pickman's words, so instead of exposing, he kept a formulaic grin and made a "go ahead" gesture.

"Dunwich is not like Arkham, and there is no powerful wizard assembly," Pickman was a little anxious. Chen Qiang's confident smile made him uncomfortable, and he made it clear again that he might not have an advantage in the information exchange, " but……"

The ghoul hesitated for a few seconds.

[Chen Qiang succeeded in the psychology test 32/72]

Obviously, his attitude of being in control of everything really made Pickman feel uneasy, Chen Qiang said in his heart.

In fact, in Pickman's view, no matter how knowledgeable the lord of the bastion of reason in the 21st century is, his understanding of the secluded countryside of Massachusetts in the United States in the 20th century will never be as profound as his own.

But Pickman was still hiding something.

"...I'm worried that they will be against us. Therefore, the more people here, the better." Pickman bit the bullet and continued.

"I know."

Chen Qiang nodded, and the smile on his face became stronger and stronger.

"You mean the Whateley family." Chen Qiang said lightly.

Pickman was startled.

"You know?"

"Originally, I wasn't 100% sure," Chen Qiang shrugged, "but your reaction proved my guess. Oh, you don't need to stand up, just sit down."

……

Dunwich countryside.

It was a run-down, unremarkable New England village—if not for the presence of the two sons of Yog-Sothoth.

The Sons of Yog-Sothoth are "hybrid" creatures of the Outer Gods and humans, but are not truly divine.They frantically learn spells in order to find a way to return to their "father".

The Dunwich countryside lived Wilbur Whateley, the humanoid son of Yog-Sothoth, and his monstrously grotesque brother.

The offspring of Yog-Sothoth vary in appearance.Some of them have a shape similar to that of humans, and some are born with terrifying monsters with "hands and feet".Their growth rate is extremely alarming, they need a lot of flesh and raw meat as food, and even attack domestic animals and wild animals when they are hungry.

It's a pity that although this creature looks "powerful", Wilbur Whateley himself has created one of the most famous stalks in the world of Cthulhu...

In the process of sneaking into the library of Miskani Tok University to steal the Necronomicon, he was unluckily discovered by a mastiff dog, and was bitten to death by the dog miserably.

……

Now Whateley seems to be alive and ignorant of his tragic future.

"The Whateley family..." Pickman carefully considered his words, he didn't know how much Chen Qiang knew, "As far as I know, old Whateley, his daughter Lavinia, and Lavinia's ten-year-old son, who now live together in Dunwich village."

"A family reunion." Chen Qiang said sarcastically.If he recalled correctly, the son of Yog-Sothoth had been so unusually developed and sane that little Whateley looked like a youth at ten.

"According to my information, there is a terrible monster in their house. Even you may not be able to deal with it," Pickman finished, "and I...for some reason, I know how to restrain it. .”

Chen Qiang touched his chin.

It is true that the "Necronomicon" records the magic of banishing the son of Yog-Sothoth. If he does not interfere with history, then, after poor little Whateley died tragically under the paw of a dog, he stayed in the house For more than ten years, the monster-like brothers had no one to feed them (old Whateley and his daughter Lavinia had already died at that time, and only little Whateley was left), and finally broke out of the house and robbed the villagers' livestock to eat... …

"……All right."

Obviously it was a terrorist incident that caused a heavy psychological shadow on the local people, how can it be summed up a bit salty?

In short, in the original historical line, the son of Yog-Sothoth was permanently defeated by magic by three brave mortals headed by Professor Armitage of the University of Michigan.

It is gratifying and worth celebrating.

In any case, the son of Yog-Sothoth has the ability to become invisible, Chen Qiang thought.Wilbur Whateley's elder brother is also somewhat resistant to physical attacks, and it is indeed not as easy to deal with as summarized by the "consequential theory" in the story.

"I will think about it." Chen Qiang said.If Pickman really knew the magic of "repelling the sons of Yog-Sothoth", it would be good to help Dunwich Village solve this trouble.

I just don't know where Pickman came into contact with this spell?Had he really read the Necronomicon?

After hearing Chen Qiang's words, Pickman showed joy.

"But there is a problem with your plan." Chen Qiang spread his hands, "You said that your family members were killed, but you don't know who the murderer is. This and the danger in Dunwich Township are two different cases. It is related to the murderer. Give me the information to prove that your words are true, and I will seriously consider your request for help."

……

at the same time.

Dunwich countryside.

Little Wilbur Whateley walked to Osborne's grocery store at the village entrance.He's ten years old, but he has the voice, build, and long, quirky beard of an adult.The ignorant villagers were surprised by this, but they still tried their best to accommodate the family—there are so many strange things in this area, and it would make people crazy to calculate.

The Whateleys are remodeling their farmhouse.His monstrous twin brother was growing so big that he had to tear down second-floor partitions and even the attic floor so he could continue cooping up like he used to.The ax and saw at home were so blunt that they couldn't use them anymore, and Little Whateley had to go to the grocery store to get a couple of new ones.

Today, however, the person sitting at the counter of the grocery store is not the familiar owner, but a strange and beautiful woman in red.
