Haunted Places Live

For the assassination mission, Chu Yang was actually very resistant.But the Great Elder personally ordered, and kept showing him the horrors in the spreading infection zone in Europe, telling him that if he didn't assassinate a high-level fifth-level observer who is currently leading the invasion of their reality, there would be tens of thousands people die.Lynch was obviously also dissatisfied with this order, and went to the First Elder privately to ask for the assassination alone, but the result made the First Elder very unhappy.

In the end, Chu Yang decided to carry out the task.Anyway, killing people was nothing new to him, and he couldn't let Lynch go into danger alone.

It's just... since Lynch appeared, he hasn't had anyone's blood on his hands yet.He didn't want Lynch to see his bloodthirsty and cruel appearance forced out by Jin Xuanmin.

The elder Bai Hongyu who assisted them in carrying out the task was also Lynch's apprentice.Moreover, Chu Yang could feel that Bo Hongyu had a special affection for Lin Qi and a strong hostility towards him, and would often say some seemingly unintentional words to stimulate Chu Yang.But Lin Qi would protect Chu Yang every time, and even though Bai Hongyu taunted him in person less frequently, he always looked at them with gloomy eyes.

They were sent to the outskirts of the city that was first infected in Europe, and were escorted by a small group of soldiers to the central area of ​​the infected area.Chu Yang saw countless rotting corpses along the way, but what was more unacceptable than the corpses were some human bodies that had begun to mutate after being corroded by the power of entropy.He saw people whose flesh melted like candles squirming in the shadows. He also saw people with countless deformed arms and legs growing out of their bodies. Can still recognize.The profile of a mother holding her daughter is clearly visible on a collapsed wall, but most of it has been turned into a stone-like material, only the eyes can move, and the rest of the body is carved with the stone next to it. It was difficult to separate, and the stone became a little soft, as if part of them had been assimilated by their flesh.

Seeing this, Lynch released the star color in his hand, ending the pain of the mother and child.

The closer they got to the central area, they began to see some holy races wandering around.The color of the stars is like a cloud of faint colored mist hovering over a large piece of corrupt and withered forest, Shoggoth rumbles through the ground, Nightmare waving its wings across the sky, and huge worms waving their tentacles full of mouths and burrowing out of the ground from time to time.Not all holy races attack them, some even turn a blind eye to them.But there are also some more bloodthirsty and ferocious races, such as the Hounds of Tindalos, who launched terrible and cruel attacks on them.The observers released the stigmata in their bodies to resist the hounds, but the human soldiers still suffered heavy casualties.And as long as the soldiers are touched by the hounds, they must leave the team, because the hounds will follow them all the time, thus revealing their whereabouts.

What a cruel thing to leave those terrified soldiers behind, those young men sometimes limped and tried to follow them, but the commanding major could only point his gun at them with tears in his eyes, ordering them Leave, go find your own place to die, wait to be found by the hounds.Chu Yang couldn't bear to see all this, but he didn't raise any objections.

Sacrifice is always inevitable.

When they finally arrived in an abandoned office building closest to the Devourer headquarters, there were only seven people left in the original 30-man team, and all the soldiers, including the major, were either killed in battle or had been marked by hounds.They found a floor where one wall had been destroyed, and set up a loudspeaker facing the heavily guarded Devourer headquarters, and Chu Yang and Lynch were at the other end of the loudspeaker.The rest are guarding the various entrances of the building.

Once Chu Yang started playing, their positions would be completely exposed.They need to hold the building before Chu Yang and Lynch lead the leader out.

Originally, it was almost impossible for five people to resist dozens of observers above level [-], but the voices made by Chu Yang and Lin Qi were too powerful. The people whose earplugs were sound-proofing were also affected one after another and lost their combat effectiveness.Finally their target was forced to show up, a believer of the Holy Flame Department.As soon as he appeared, everything began to burn, combustible and non-combustible, and everything was reduced to ashes in the flames.The temperature around Chu Yang and Lynch rose instantly, as if they were in an oven.Among the original five people, except for Bai Hongyu, who was level five, they were all engulfed by the flames in an instant.

The Devourer was also burning all over his body, floating in front of Chu Yang and Lin Qi like a bird of fire flying in the sky.

At this time, Chu Yang's piano sound and Lin Qi's singing statement showed that they had controlled all the opponent's minions, but the opponent did not respond much to their attack.Bai Hongyu was also easily surrounded by his flames, unable to escape.

Chu Yang's sweat dripped down on the cello like rain, and the bow's hair was broken too much, but he didn't even have time to stop to change a bow.At this time, Lynch suddenly released the star color, and the strange creature exploded with the crazy music made by the two of them, instantly swallowing the raging flames around it.And Chu Yang also felt a cracking pain in his chest, huge and gorgeous petals bloomed, Roiger in the filthy twins rushed out of his body first, and slammed into the Devourer.Immediately afterwards, Zar's overwhelming vines burst out from his body, submerging the devourer in an instant.

When the vines were burned by the Devourer, Chu Yang seemed to feel that his body was also on fire.He screamed, and the sound of the piano stopped.As soon as the sound of the piano stopped, only Lynch's singing remained, and the Devourer immediately began to counterattack.The things that had been extinguished all around burst out again, and sparks began to appear on Bai Hongyu's body.

But at this moment, he probably thought he was going to win.The devourer didn't guard against a vine of Zar, and the vine quickly pierced into the opponent's mind, so the devourer's memories and emotions flooded to Chu Yang like a tide.As if instinctively, Chu Yang found the biggest nightmare and fear deep in that person's memory, so he poured all the mental poison into the other person's mind through the vine.The Devourer was obviously affected, and the flames around him began to fluctuate. Chu Yang took the opportunity to grab his cello. At that moment, he suddenly knew what he was going to do. He could clearly see how to play the broken cello. A cello with a broken string can completely destroy the opponent's sanity.And he did.

The moment the Devourer's sanity was destroyed.All the flames started to get out of control and started to bite him back.In the end the Devourer was burned alive by his own flames, reduced to countless flying ashes.

Although a terrible price was paid, the Devourers in that city were almost completely wiped out in the end.The Four Holy Sees were in a state of turmoil. After all, so many teams were dispatched to try to encircle and assassinate the Devourer, almost all of them were killed by the incomparably powerful Devourer and his subordinates.Unexpectedly, he was killed by a "danger observer" who had been imprisoned for six years and his "guarantor" Lynch.

Since then, Chu Yang and Lin Qi have become more and more regarded as the most powerful weapons of the Presbyterian Church. Whenever there are super observers who are difficult for ordinary people to deal with, they will be sent out to "deal with".

But after using the stigmata a few times, Lin Qi found that Chu Yang had changed.

On the surface, it seems that there is no change. Chu Yang still smiles at Lin Qi, and usually looks so quiet that he is a little dull. He still prepares dinner seriously, and is so serious that he is a little stubborn, and he still sleeps on the sofa with him. watch a movie.But occasionally, Lin Qi would see Chu Yang's eyes staring at the screen, but there was nothing inside, no happiness, no emotion, no doubts, no worries... nothing.

When performing missions and facing others, Chu Yang always has such eyes, empty, dark, and nothing, and only when facing Lynch, his eyes will come alive again.

Lin Qi realized that it was the sequelae left by Chu Yang's stigmata.His ability to empathize is rapidly diminishing.Chu Yang, who once screamed and collapsed and tried to commit suicide because he killed someone, now even if he cut a devourer into pieces, even if the blood of the devourer was stained red, he would not blink his eyes.

Seeing Chu Yang like this, Lin Qi gradually became a little scared and regretted.It was he who brought Chu Yang into this bloody world, and he failed to protect Chu Yang.

And Chu Yang himself was not having a good time.

Numbness permeated his heart like poison, and he seemed to be an empty shell. No matter what he did, he was surrounded by a strange sense of boredom.It's as if nothing makes any sense.He felt that something was missing, but he didn't know what it was.And only when he sees Lynch, that terrible sense of emptiness recedes, allowing him to find some of his former self.

At that time, when he used the sound of the piano to control several devourers to kill each other, the only survivor also cut open his abdomen with a knife in the sound of his piano and pulled out his intestines.His blood sprayed on Chu Yang's face, but there was no disturbance in Chu Yang's heart.When he turned his head and saw Lynch looking at him, he suddenly felt a sharp pain.

Lynch looked at his expression, as if he was looking at something terrible.Even when he stretched out his hand to pull Lynch, he could see Lynch flinching reflexively.

In an instant, the numbness that had lasted for a long time suddenly broke.From Lynch's eyes, he saw himself, his face covered with blood, his eyes cold and empty, like...a monster like Jin Xuanmin...

Tears flowed from Chu Yang's eyes. He dropped his cello like a poisonous snake, looked at Lin Qi in horror, and whispered, "Help me..."

save him...

After that, Lin Qi did not agree with Chu Yang to continue the mission no matter what.Even if Antonio threatened to rip off his position as elder, Lynch remained unmoved.He took Chu Yang back to Marianne Bray Mansion, where he spent a peaceful time with Chu Yang.He no longer let Chu Yang play the cello, nor let him hear anything related to the Presbyterian Church.

With the passage of time, the empathy ability that was consumed came back little by little, but after that, the killings he had personally caused became nightmares again.He would often wake up in the middle of the night, because he dreamed clearly and vividly of himself tearing up those devourers, and the touch of blood flowing under the vines that were like extensions of his body was so real that he was in a trance in the dark I felt like my hands were covered with blood.

Whenever he woke up, Lynch would hug him gently and silently from behind, humming a ballad called Green Sleeves softly in his ear over and over again.Lynch said that every time he had nightmares when he was a child, his mother would always hum it to him. As long as he heard it, his mood would return to calm.And that song also works for Chu Yang, as long as he feels Lin Qi's body temperature and hears his singing, his violent heartbeat will gradually calm down, and the feeling of filth covering his whole body will also temporarily dissipate.

Later, Lin Qi brought four of Chu Yang's friends to live in the mansion for two months, hoping to help Chu Yang get out of the predicament of depression and anxiety.The originally quiet mansion became lively, and every meal was lively and lively.If one day Zhao Censhang comes, it will even attract two star chasing girls so excited that they can lift the roof off.Accompanied by friends and lovers, Chu Yang finally healed little by little. Even when he saw the cello, he would no longer be afraid to tremble.

However, those four people could not stay in the UK for too long. A few days after sending them away, Bai Hongyu appeared outside the gate of the manor.

During the time when Chu Yang was recuperating in seclusion, the Devourer obviously noticed the absence of the pair of powerful assassins, and began to attack Asia and the Middle East on a large scale.Several gigantic rifts in reality were opened, armies of observers and holy races strategically surrounded the entire continent, and the infection spread like a plague.Several of the most powerful allies dispatched coalition forces, but in the face of those terrifying alien creatures that surpassed common sense, many soldiers' spirits appeared abnormal.The planes that were going to bomb the opponent turned to fire shells at the friendly side, but the soldiers who had not yet rushed to the battlefield seemed to see something terrifying and ran away, and even killed each other...

Even though the four holy sees had no choice but to join forces, they were still retreating steadily, because there were too many fifth-level devourers, and they were obviously gathered from countless realities.Even if all the five-level observers of the four holy sees are combined, the number is not enough.

In the absence of hostile opponents, only twenty fifth-level observers can confirm or collapse a reality.However, if there is an enemy, the situation will be complicated, and the observation forces may devour each other's balance, causing multiple local collapses.But when one party is twenty times more observant than the other, it's easy to collapse that reality.And now, the number of Level [-] Devourers constantly entering their reality is rapidly approaching the twenty-fold critical point.

"There is no place in this world that is safe anymore." Bai Hongyu's appearance of pleading was very sincere, "Are you going to hide here and watch our reality completely collapse?"

Lynch was unmoved, "If there are so many advanced five levels, what can we do?"

"The Great Elder has a way. The Four Holy Sees need you, and everyone in this reality needs you." Bai Hongyu said, but looked at Chu Yang, "Aren't you worried about your friends? Even if they are Beijing has not yet fallen, but infection areas have appeared in a large area in the south, but the government is still blocking the news. As we speak, the infection is likely to have spread to the north."

Chu Yang's heart skipped a beat.

After Bai Hongyu left, Chu Yang felt restless and immediately called Zhu Heze.As a result, several phone calls were made and the phone was turned off.Chu Yang was so flustered that he and Lin Qi rushed back to China overnight.

However, the infection spread even faster than Bai Hongyu said.When the plane took off, it was said that the weather in Beijing was still calm, but when the plane tried to land [-] hours later, the control tower could not be contacted.The planes on the runway were scattered all over the place, and some even collided with each other.After circling several times over Beijing, the pilot was unable to land on a relatively clean runway. The process was uneventful and turbulent, but no one was injured.

Beijing was already infected, people were being evacuated when they got off the plane, and there were not many people around the airport.The streets are like a scene of the end of the zombie outbreak. Cars collide with each other, and there are fires burning in the distance. Occasionally, there are loud explosions from the floors.There was fire everywhere, and then there was the distant sound of screaming and clamor.

It didn't take long for them to come across some Migos who were grabbing a poor man for a living skull.Just as they were about to fight, they ran into several observers from the Presbyterian Church and the Holy Flame Department. The team was led by a fifth-level elder who knew Lynch.They worked together to kill the two highly intelligent but extremely sinister creatures.The people from the Presbyterian Church took them to the nearest apartments of Zhu Heze and Chen Yi.

The whole building was entangled in a kind of cobweb-like white floc, like a huge cocoon.And among those flocs, sometimes wriggling long strips of worms can be seen, the fat is constantly shaking, and countless swallowed human bodies slide past inside.Chu Yang tore off the flocs and rushed into the building.The elevator was broken, so he could only rush to the 32nd floor from the escape route.He didn't even know the fatigue, and Lynch couldn't even catch up to him.

But he didn't even have to knock down the doors of the two girls' rooms.

They didn't leave, they were still in the room.The two seemed to be hugging each other tightly, their bodies were surrounded by white flocs all over the place, leaving only their heads exposed.Zhu Heze seemed to have been dead for a long time, his oval face full of oriental charm was black and blue, there was a large corpse spot on his cheek, and the eyeballs had begun to rot, and a translucent liquid flowed out.And Chen Yi...Chen Yi is still alive.

If that's still alive.

Her big once bright eyes were now full of fear and pain, and her chapped lips were squirming, vaguely saying, "Save... me..."

Chu Yang rushed over, but couldn't tear off the floc wrapped around the two of them.He rushed to the kitchen, finally found a kitchen knife that had started to rust, and began to chop the cocoon-like white silk with all his strength.But as soon as he cut it, Chen Yi let out a scream, and a lot of light green juice flowed out from the place he cut.

Those silks have already merged with Chen Yi.

"They are digesting us..." Chen Yi's voice was weak, his eyes gradually despaired, "It's too late...we can't go anymore..."

"No... no... there must be a way!" Chu Yang couldn't accept it, couldn't believe it.He took out the cello, maybe he has a way to reverse the mutation, maybe he can restore Chen Yi to its original state.

But his hand was held down by Lynch who came later.

"It's useless..." Lynch clenched his hand tightly, tears welling up in his eyes, "At this point...it's impossible to recover..."

"No!!! There must be a way!!!" Chu Yang roared, but tears were already streaming down his face.He started to play the piano, playing the few pieces that have the ability to suppress observation.But it was useless, Chen Yi was still the same.

As his tune stimulated the white flocs in all directions, the cocoon seemed to tighten again, Chen Yi's trachea was compressed, and his face began to turn blue.

"Kill me..." She finally begged, "Brother Chu, please, kill me..."

The sound of begging was like countless jagged files cutting Chu Yang's heart one by one.He also knew in his heart that Chen Qi was hopeless.

So he started playing another piece.

A song that will make people hallucinate and return to their happiest memories.

Lynch and everyone were silent, watching the girl's eyes gradually become blank, gradually losing focus.The painful expression stretched a little bit, and an innocent and happy smile gradually appeared on the corner of his mouth.

At the moment when this smile appeared, Chu Yang suddenly grabbed the kitchen knife, strode forward, and cut Chen Yi's throat with the knife.

She twitched, and pale green blood gushed out, but the smile on her face was still frozen.

For a while the room was silent.Chu Yang stood motionless with his back to everyone.The light green blood on Chen Yi's body stained his shirt, and the knife in his hand still had pus-green liquid on it.That kind of weird scene made several observers who followed them shudder and feel inexplicably sad.

The pain burst out in his chest, and Lin Qi couldn't imagine what Chu Yang's expression was like at this time.He walked carefully behind Chu Yang, but he didn't know how to touch him, how to comfort him.

Chu Yang's body was trembling slightly, but he didn't cry.

His eyes were wide open, empty inside.Some of them looked like after he used the stigmata too much.

Finally, Chu Yang let go of the knife and said in a low voice, "There are also Song Liangshu and Su Yu..."

However, the gods did not favor them after all.Song Liangshu and Su Yu had also died long ago.

Overnight, most of the city was occupied by the Devourer, and the citizens suffered heavy casualties.As for Chu Yang, he lost all his friends.

It was my fault...it was because I hid like a tortoise that I failed to protect them...

He was clearly capable of protecting them, but he sent them back to the swamp of death.

Chu Yang hated herself.

A sinner like him, a person who can only kill but can't even protect the people he values, what right does he have to be happy?What qualifies for salvation?

Once again, hatred soaked through Chu Yang's heart like poison.In his empty eyes, there was endless darkness.

He wants revenge...

And Lin Qi, watching Chu Yang sink into the abyss of hatred, couldn't pull him out.He knew that feeling all too well, the feeling of wanting to destroy everything.At that time, no one can redeem Chu Yang.

All he could do was to accompany him, trying to walk through this sea of ​​hell.Although he didn't know if they would survive.

Now Chu Yang has only him...

Lin Qi is Chuyang's harbor and Chuyang's lighthouse.Only he can pull Chu Yang away from the cliff of eternal doom.Therefore, wherever Chu Yang was going, he had to go there too.

When Antonio proposed that Chu Yang and Lynch pretend to betray the Council of Elders, go undercover in the Devourer organization, and look for opportunities to assassinate the leader of the Devourer, "Prophet", Chu Yang asked to go alone.But Lynch insisted on being with him.

"Without me, Chu Yang can only exert less than half of his strength." Lin Qi talked eloquently, "All of you know that when the two of us are together, we can create something beyond the two of us."

Apparently Antonio and all the other elders thought so too.

Before leaving, Chu Yang and Lin Qi hugged each other tightly in the dark, Chu Yang said, "I don't want you to come...I can't lose you."

"Can I lose you?" Lynch kissed the top of his head lightly, "Xiao Yang, you can't be so selfish. Leave me here alone, do you want to torture me crazy?"

"You don't understand..." Chu Yang said in a low voice, "Now, I only have you. If something happens to you, I don't know what will happen."

Without Lynch, he would become a monster, a cruel and terrifying monster that even Lynch could no longer love.he knows.

Lin Qi didn't speak for a long time, but just hugged Chu Yang's hand tightly, "Don't be afraid. I won't leave you. I will always be with you."
