Chapter 271 Tindalos, Endless Desire
On the distant hills.

"Oh, I didn't expect..."

Hong Zhou in "Silver Twilight" looked into the distance through the telescope.As an alien creature, he is born with the ability to see at night, but he still needs a telescope to see everything happening in the distance.

"If you can explain exactly what happened," Gu Shun raised his eyebrows next to Hong Zhou, "you won't appear so arrogant."

Gu Shun has suffered a lot these days, but now he sees it.Anyway, the people here can't kill themselves, so whatever...

Hong Zhou looked at Gu Shun's expression and shrugged.

"Whateley's dead," he replied tersely.

"You didn't go to help him?" Gu Shun asked.

"Why should I help?" Hong Zhou smiled.

He stared at Gu Shun's expression.The leader of the Brotherhood of the Yellow Seal was neither sad nor happy, and he didn't care about what happened to young Whateley.

Hong Zhou has been observing Gu Shun for the past few days... this new ally from the future.

"He's following...the 'King in Yellow'...or, 'The Nameless One.'"

Hong Zhou didn't point out the fact that Gu Shun was an admirer of Hastur. "Silver Twilight" has the best relationship with Cthulhu and his tribe, and some people are hostile to the "Yellow Seal Brotherhood", but in general, followers of all gods can always maintain in this largest mysterious organization of mankind On the surface, "all is well".

Most members of the "Silver Twilight" regard Yog-Sothoth as their main god, but the "Lords of the Silver Twilight" who know the truth of the universe always think more than those ordinary worshipers.

How the members secretly calculate each other is not something that the organization will interfere with...

"His immortality method is worth noting," Hong Zhou thought to himself, "it is a new idea based on the ancient 'Soul Apportion Technique' (Apportion Ka). I don't know if it comes from the god of Carcosa or the black The handiwork of Pharaoh.”

The so-called "soul distribution technique" concentrates the caster's life essence on important organs, and then removes the enchanted organs from the caster's body for safekeeping. As long as the removed organs are safe, the caster will not die. .The ancient Egyptians loved this kind of magic and kept their internal organs in enchanted bottles and jars.

But this spell also has a fatal weakness: the core of the soul, the brain, cannot be removed under normal circumstances.But Hong Zhou could see clearly that all of Gu Shun's organs, including his brain, were empty, and his body would be injured and unconscious, but he seemed to be an immortal body with no flaws.

"How did he do it?" Hong Zhou was very interested.

The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and the coats of the two were rolled up.

A storm is coming.

"I would like to ask - you just said Whateley. Which Whateley is it?" Gu Shun narrowed his eyes, "That goat-faced man, Haas..."

Poor little Wilbur Whateley and his invisible monster brother, there are two "sons of Yog-Sothoth" in this village.

"Both are no longer in this world," Hong Zhou said, "The master of the 'Fortress of Sanity' you mentioned defeated it."

"It really is them." Gu Shun muttered.

Just as Hong Zhou was thinking about Gu Shun, Gu Shun was also thinking about Hong Zhou.

Hong Zhou is obviously not human, but Gu Shun's attention is on the small pills he sells everywhere.

Curious (I'm not going to die anyway!), Gu Shun, who tasted a little pill, successfully recognized that it was a kind of "Liao Dan".

"You are not a time traveler," Gu Shun said, "You know a lot about this kind of knowledge..."

"Liao Dan"... also known as "Pluto's Medicine", is a medicine that can send the consciousness of intelligent races to the distant past.For humans, taking a sufficient amount of Liaodan can project consciousness all the way back to ancient times, to the origin of all life on earth, the Outer God "Source of No Source" Ubo Sathra.

Going into the past rashly will easily attract the attention of the Tindalosian hounds, but experienced mages will also use the "Liao Dan" with a changed formula to allow the soul to enter other time and space for a short time, which in turn confuses the senses of the Tindalosian family.

But the "Liao Dan" issued by Hong Zhou is different from the above two.

This drug has a similar formula, but without the magical ability to project the soul into the past.In Gu Shun's judgment, this specially made "Liao Dan" is similar to his own "soul distribution technique", which can draw out the essence of life contained in the soul.

But for ordinary people, it's just to make yourself a little bit healthier...

Gu Shun didn't believe that "Silver Twilight" would do any charity work.

"Entrusted by 'people', loyal to 'people'," Hong Zhou said happily, "Aren't you the same?"

He paused: "Keep it a secret. It's good for both of us..."

Thunder and lightning flashed in the sky.The wind brought a stench of corruption, the last vestiges of the two sons of Yog-Sothoth on earth.

"It's over." Hong Zhou thought to himself, "It seems that the final master of the void will not come, and I don't have to take the risk of summoning the 'Lord of Tindalos'."

Compared with the followers of Yog Sothoth who can barely maintain a clear rationality, the monsters in the city of Tindalos are tortured by hunger and thirst all the time - Tindalos represented by "Hound" When life sees its prey, it will follow it to the end, not because it has much sense of responsibility to maintain a straight line of time and space, but because it is driven by the endless hunger and thirst in life.

Once mortals are transformed into creatures of Tindalos, the eternal hunger and thirst will consume what little sanity they have...

But occasionally, when those hungry creatures are powerless, they will also drive the existence of other races to guide their hunting.

"That's fine." Hong Zhou thought to himself.

Being associated with the Tindaros clan would have been a betrayal of most of the members of the Silver Twilight who followed Yog-Sothoth.Unlike his colleagues in the "Silver Twilight" who secretly observed Whateley's growth just out of interest, he, who made a secret contract with the Tindalos family, as a "dead hand", must be there when things get out of hand. , calling the Lord of Daros to appear.

All the villagers who have taken the blue pill will become sacrifices for the king of linear time and space.

The more the villagers depended on the pill's power, the stronger the call from the realm of Tindalos became.

"At least, I don't have to leave."

Hong Zhou was somewhat grateful to the "Fortress of Sanity".He also had a slight interest in this "future company" that Gu Shun mentioned...

Bean-sized raindrops began to drip from the dark night sky, washing away the unpleasant stench.

"Let's go." Gu Shun said, he won't die, but his body will be as uncomfortable as ordinary people.

"En." Hong Zhou glanced at the mountains and nodded slightly.

There are many ghouls lurking in the mountains of Dunwich - he once used ghouls as test subjects and he didn't want to be caught by the angry skeleton-eating clan.

He once distributed medicine to the homeless people in Arkham, and as a result, the ghouls in Arkham were poisoned and died after eating the corpses of these people. Other races even have terrible toxicity.

　A ritual for mortals to summon the Lord of Tindalos is roughly to feed a large number of people collectively... some kind of Liao Dan's revision, and finally in a crazy atmosphere, the environment is assimilated by the city of Tindalos, and the Lord of Tindalos will Appeared accompanied by countless hounds. PS: Be sure to stay away from all kinds of addictive chemicals. Even the medicines prescribed by the doctor must be taken strictly according to the usage standards.
