Haunted Places Live

Chu Yang huddled in the crowded bus for several days, and finally reached Sakhalin City over the mountains.This is already within the territory of the Kingdom of Truth. Due to years of turmoil, the number of tourists is very small, so foreigners are very easy to attract attention.Chu Yang had no choice but to cover half of his face with a wind-sand scarf, and got out of the car with a group of tired-looking people carrying large and small bags.With his cello on his back, he took a salute and took a taxi to a hotel in the city that Lynch had arranged for him, took a good shower, and shaved.

The country of truth has a curfew after ten o'clock at night, so Lynch didn't come to pick him up until the early morning of the next day.Chu Yang, who was tired from running around for days and fell asleep all night, felt someone kissing his cheek in a daze. He thought it was mosquitoes. After all, there were quite a lot of mosquitos in this hotel, so he waved his hand to drive away the harassment.

Then Lynch heard "Ouch!"

Chu Yang opened his eyes in a daze, and saw Lin Qi laying on top of him, rubbing his face in aggrieved manner, Lihua complained with rain, "You hit me!"

"I thought it was a mosquito..." Chu Yang quickly reached out to rub Lin Qi, then raised his head and kissed again, "Does it still hurt?"

Lynch smiled with his eyes crooked, "You kiss again and it won't hurt."

Chu Yang smiled and kissed again.No way, who made him feel wronged.

Lin Qi hugged his lover who had been separated for half a month comfortably, and Chu Yang also put his arms around Lin Qi's waist.The two got bored for a while, and Lynch asked, "How was your talk with your dad?"

"He asked us not to get involved in this matter. It seems that the Presbyterian Church has also sent people to the Kingdom of Truth."

"Well, I've noticed it here too. That's good, they have attracted the attention of Chaos Temple and R'lyeh, so we can act better." Lynch reached out and touched Chu Yang's face, and said with a smile, "We are now If such a posture is seen by outsiders, they may be arrested and hanged."

"That's considered a martyrdom. It's very romantic." Chu Yang also followed his words, but when the words came out, he felt strangely uneasy for some reason.

Lynch's followers had already obtained fake identity information for them. They were about to pretend to be newly transferred researchers from the Military Research Institute and enter the research institute located in a deserted wasteland about [-] kilometers outside Sakhalin City.The procedures for entering the inspection are very strict, and there are heavy guards, but obviously Lynch's followers were originally people in important positions in the research institute, so the series of procedures were impeccable.

What's more tricky is that there are many people from Chaos Temple and R'lyeh here.Especially the R'lyye, their Innsmouth looks are very strange, those slightly protruding eyes always seem to stare at every person who unfortunately falls into their sight with viscous malice.Fortunately, their positions are only second-level researchers, and there is nothing to attract attention. In addition, both of them have done a certain degree of cross-dressing. Lynch put on a fake beard, and Chu Yang put on a pair of very bulky glasses. So not found.

Within two days, they found out that there were more than 20 floors underground in the research institute, but ordinary researchers were not allowed to enter.

They were almost certain that the weapon was in those 20 layers.But under the heavy defense, there is really no way to enter.They even tried to enter from another reality, but there was apparently only one exit from that area, and there were three layers of gates, two of which had the secret spell of R'layeh.It is impossible to enter from other places.

The problem is, they're running out of time.

Lynch then intentionally leaked some of the secrets he and Chu Yang had discovered. Sure enough, within two days, suddenly one day the entire research institute building was buzzing with alarms. Two gates.There was clearly an old seal on the door, and the alarm was triggered after the spies of the Presbyterian church used the holy race to destroy it.All the guards and observers were mobilized, and the researchers were asked to hide on the top floor, only to hear all kinds of weird shouts, machine gun fire and terrified shouts from downstairs.

While Chu Yang and Lin Qi took advantage of the chaos to rush through the first and second protections that had been destroyed by the special commissioner of the Executive Department of the Presbyterian Church, and then Chu Yang released his filthy twins and forcibly broke through the third door.

I rushed all the way to the ground, only to find that the so-called [-]-story building was actually a huge underground cavity.Layers of corridors are attached to the rock wall in a semi-circular shape. In the mysterious blue light, countless chaotic pipelines hang down from the zenith, hanging on a giant, ancient stone sculpture full of marine fossils. around.

It was a majestic, ugly and colossal monster with a huge body as high as [-] meters. Its claw-like hands hung all the way to the ground, its shoulders were stooped, and where the head should have been, there were a few giant tentacles waving in the air.The lines of the suckers on those tentacles have been worn away, but the majestic spirit of the past can still be seen.On its abdomen, there are many lumps with different appearances. Some lumps can show obvious traces of facial features, and some are not human at all.

Nyarlathotep, the only free-moving god of entropy - crouching icon of chaos.Those lumps were the avatars Nyarlathotep had used in lost civilizations before humans came along, so the heads didn't look very human.

This is by no means an ordinary holy image, because just seeing it for a moment, all kinds of dark and crazy thoughts and fear that penetrated into the bone marrow have been poured into the whole mind, a kind of despair as an ant when facing the ultimate thing and the urge to surrender.It's a holy object, something not every reality can have.This is the medium of communication with the gods created by the great civilizations that existed on the earth before the beginning of human history.I am afraid that even if all the multi-observation points in the world are added up, the observation energy of this thing is not as powerful.

This is why R'lyeh and the Temple of Chaos are willing to help the Kingdom of Truth, because this thing is buried here.

Chu Yang felt it was difficult to breathe, his knees were weak, as if he was threatened by something too large and terrifying, and ordered him to surrender.His memories of having used the Filth Twins just now were a little confused, and he was at a loss for a while, not sure where he was and what his name was.If Lynch hadn't grabbed his hand, he might have rushed towards the icon and jumped into the abyss.

Such a terrifying spiritual influence, even a powerful observer at the fifth level can produce it just by seeing it.

But how will Chaos Temple and R'lyeh use it?

Can he and Lynch really destroy such a thing?

Lin Qi was not less affected than Chu Yang.He could feel that this was definitely not an ordinary holy object.

With such a thing, it is no wonder that there are frequent wars and it is listed as one of the most dangerous countries in the world.

But the question is such a thing, how did Chaos Temple and R'lyeh control it?

Looking down, there are many pipelines connected to the feet of the statue, connected to some crystal-like substances on the wall that exude a strange purple light, and there are some huge screens around them that display world maps. Places are covered in blue, but there are quite a few places with varying degrees of red, and the amount of red is constantly changing.Lynch recognized that those red spots were multi-observation points where the reality was not stable.

Chu Yang and Lin Qi could guess what it was just by looking at the map.

They don’t know how they obtained so many prehistoric lost crystals of the ancients and the technology of the ancients, and made a machine, a machine that can control this statue that is as powerful as an observation energy version of a super nuclear bomb.Channeled and manipulated by those Old Ones crystals, the energy within the statue erupts from anywhere in the world.In other words, in just a split second, the reality in that region will be extremely chaotic, leading to local collapse.Even if there are level [-] observers in charge, in such an energy burst equivalent to level [-], there is no way to fight back.

Destroying such a statue would be impossible with just the two of them, but they could destroy the machine and perhaps delay the plans of the Realm of Truth for a while.

But at this moment, there was a noise behind him, and the pursuers had already arrived.

Chu Yang said to Lynch, "Go and destroy the machine below, and I will block them."

After speaking, he opened the plastic sealed box that he had been carrying all the time, and his cello was hidden inside.

Lynch was a little worried. To guard such a statue, it was hard to say how many high-ranking fives the Temple of Chaos and R'lyeh would send to guard it.Can Chu Yang stand alone?

Chu Yang's voice was tense but determined, "Hurry up! That machine must not be kept!"

Lin Qi also knew that Chu Yang was right.Even for the safety of Chu Yang's father, it must be destroyed now.Otherwise, according to internal information, they will activate this thing in the early hours of the morning.

Lynch quickly rushed down the stairs to the ground floor.His star color has a certain load-bearing capacity, but such a high place is still too dangerous.When he ran down the third floor, the sound of the cello above his head had already sounded.It was one of Chu Yang's most offensive songs, and it was only used when dealing with the most vicious holy race or observers with a higher level of four or higher.The tunes are as dense as a rainstorm, full of unsettling and distracting twists and turns, and the plausible main theme is repeated continuously, like a whirlpool that pulls people into the abyss of madness layer by layer.

At the same time, there are countless indistinguishable animal-like but somewhat human-like howls echoing in the gaps between the piano sounds, which are obviously the sounds made by the observers of the Chaos Temple after being transformed.Lynch raised his head, but saw countless branch-shaped tentacles emitting bright red light waving from a height, illuminating the dark patch of deep divers summoned by the R'lyye on the wall, descending rapidly like locusts. Seems to be chasing him.

However, the sound of Chu Yang's piano obviously interfered with them seriously, causing most of the deep divers to crawl on the walls in a crooked manner, and the deep divers who were constantly confused and didn't hold on to the cliff or corridor railing howled and fell. , fell on the feet or base of the stone statue.The strange thing is that the number of deep divers dropped exceeds the number of corpses that can be seen underneath, which means that many deep divers disappeared after touching the stone statues.

I don't know if it was because Chu Yang's piano sound was too strong, which stimulated the already extremely unstable stone statue of Nyarlathotep.Lynch could smell the strong stench emanating from the stone statue, and the cold and damp wind with the smell of the tomb stirred in the air.He had already reached the penultimate sixth floor at this time, so he threw away his gloves, supported the railing with his hand, and flew down. The color of the stars quickly gushed out from his hand, and scattered under him in the shape of a jellyfish to slow down his fall.

Dozens of computers that look a little bulky are somewhat different from ordinary computers. The arrangement of the keyboards is somewhat similar to the design of the ancients.The pipes are connected to the wall with densely packed ancient crystals of different sizes.The crystals seemed to be full of energy, and the cold air radiated formed a layer of frost on all the computers.

Lynch opened his hands and released all the stars in his body.The violently rotating colors turned into a vortex, flying towards every crystal full of energy.The entire bottom of the hollow was submerged in that sea of ​​filthy colours.A steady stream of vast power was sent into Lynch's body by the color of the stars, but what he felt was the seawater of the coldest base in the world continuously pouring into his blood vessels, freezing from the inside out.Some crystals were drained of energy by him, the light began to go out, and they shattered into powder flying all over the sky.Immediately afterwards, several computers connected to those crystals also emitted green smoke, which was obviously damaged.

However, there were too many crystals, and those cold forces swelled in Lynch's blood, making him feel that his skin was cracking inch by inch.

A large number of deep divers and some transformed Chaos Temple believers broke through Chu Yang's blockade. Some Chaos Temple believers with wings growing from their backs descended from the sky, and the poisonous needles spit out from their mouths fell all over the sky like arrows, ready to shoot at any time. Lynch's danger.But at this moment, the vines all over the sky exploded from the uninterrupted sound of the piano, and the huge petals embraced all the poisonous thorns.

Lin Qi knew that Chu Yang was desperately protecting him.Using the Unholy Twins while playing the cello, and those poisonous thorns obviously hurt the vines, how much damage would such consumption do to his body and mind?

More crystals were wiped out in the storm of color, Lynch moaned in pain, and his body trembled from the sharp pain.These crystals have absorbed the power of the statue, and they are like a part of the statue.As the crystals decreased, the statue became more and more unstable, and Lynch felt that the stars were screaming in their way, trying to rush back into Lynch's body.

Chu Yang's piano sound also paused for a moment.

Lynch, who was exhausted, was also frightened by the pause of the piano sound, and his heartbeat almost stopped.The pain, exhaustion and worry had cracked his mental walls.Suddenly, a domineering swirl erupted from the statue, capturing Lynch in an instant.

Lynch felt a terrible noise erupting in his head. The high-frequency noise, which was amplified thousands of times, made him scream, and his eyes were dark.

Then, he saw his mother.

He saw his mother sitting in front of his cradle, her beautiful and elegant face faintly reflecting the dense light, humming the song "Green Sleeves" softly.Hands always in lace gloves rocked his cradle, undulating gently like the waves of the sea.

He felt himself held in his mother's arms, her skin soft and perpetually smelling of rosewater and faintly of milk.He lay on his mother's shoulders, so warm and comfortable, endless nostalgia swept his body like a tide, making him want to cry.

"My little angel." Marianne kissed his forehead, "Don't cry, Mom never left you."

Lynch, who had become a toddler, couldn't say a word.He wasn't sure which one was the dream.Is it the current self, or those dark, long, cold memories.

"Don't go...I miss you so much, Mom..."

The mother who couldn't even see her for the last time, the mother who died because of him.

When he was trying to survive in the hell of the concentration camp with the feeling of wanting to see his mother for the last time, his mother had already died for him.

No matter how many things a person has experienced, how much he has seen in the world of mortals, he will always be a child in front of his mother.When encountering a desperate situation, no matter how mature and powerful a man is, he can't help but think of the mother who has been protecting them like a gentle harbor since birth, that's why so many soldiers call their mother before they die.

At this moment, Lynch was crying loudly and sobbing. All the darkness he had seen in these years, all the pain he had experienced, life and death, all spewed out with tears.

"We'll never have to part again." Marianne said in a voice as rich and charming as red wine, parting his soft hair. "Stay here, with Mom."

The sun shines on the two of them, so peaceful and happy.No more pain, no more seeing the darkness in the world, no more fear of loss, no more loneliness.

But he also thought of a pair of gloomy eyes, a cellist with a shy smile.

He thought of the blooming petals and gushing vines.

No, he can't stay here, Chu Yang is still outside, still defending him against the raging sea of ​​enemies.

In an instant, the child grew up. Lynch looked at his mother, who was already much shorter than him, and shook his head, "No, I still have concerns. I have to go back..."

Marianne looked at him, raised her hand to gently touch his cheek, and sighed, "You've grown up. Really grown up. But Mom stayed where she was, waiting for you."

"wait for me?"

"Yes, temporary death is not the end. You and I still have a chance to meet. Not only me, but all those you lost, including Rosenberg and Albert, you still have a chance to meet." Marianne took his hand, corrupted by the color of the stars, and wrote a word in his palm.

Necronomicon

Necronomicon.

Lynch looked at her in bewilderment.

It's not that he has never heard of the Necronomicon, it is a legendary book, not every reality will have a book.And there are many versions, most of which are fragments, missing some of the most important spells.In their reality, there are currently two known translations, both of which have been collected by the Four Holy Sees.

"One day, all the dead will have the chance to be resurrected and receive the final judgment. And you will be the judge of all, you are the messenger chosen by God." Marianne's smile became more and more beautiful, and every word she said with her plump lips A single word is like a spell, "Your other half will open the most complete Necronomicon for you, and you will end all pain and sin together and create a brand new future. Don't forget my words, don't forget that I am still here Waiting for you, all the people you love are waiting for you."

Lynch woke up suddenly.

He was still in front of the statue of Nyarlathotep, and all around him the deep ones and the monsters of the Chaos Temple were charging at him.

He opened his mouth, and the majestic power accumulated in his body burst out from his throat in an instant.

In an instant, the entire underground cavity was shaken by the vast power contained in the singing, and cracks quickly spread from every corner in a spider web.His singing voice was entwined with Chu Yang's continuous piano sound, and had a certain resonance with the statue.However, the stone flakes on the statue's body began to collapse in large pieces, falling like a torrential rain together with the cement boulders in the underground cavity.

Under a boulder that collapsed, there was a piece of slowly wriggling red skin that reflected the sticky light.

Immediately afterwards, everything began to collapse.

Chu Yang's vines had disappeared, and the sound of the piano had also stopped.At the critical juncture, Lynch's body undergoes unexpected changes.

He didn't even feel his body changing.

He just felt light and expansive at the same time.He felt that he could easily go to any place he wanted, so he jumped up, and the countless stones flying in front of him were very slow and could be easily avoided.When they reached the top floor of those semi-circular corridors, they saw Chu Yang lying at the entrance with blood dripping from his forehead, the clothes on his chest were torn, and the bow hair and strings of the cello were also broken.He picked up Chu Yang and rushed to the exit.

After a long, long time, Lynch realized that the statue might not be just a statue.

Maybe the mother he saw in his dream wasn't his mother either.

Creeping Chaos knew of Yogg Sothoth's plans more than his father, Lin Qiao, the Jailer of the Gods, Osar.It is the main guide for Lin Qi and Chu Yang in this world.It is silent, hidden among different realities, and you don't even know it has appeared in your life, helping you make a decisive "choice".

During that battle, Chu Yang spent so much time protecting Lin Qi that he lost all five years of memory.Lynch had no choice but to put on a modified version of the Ring of Osar that restricted the distance between the two of them.

Because he couldn't let Chu Yang go back to the Presbyterian Church.

Although they succeeded in destroying the institute, they still failed.

Early that morning, the launch was ahead of schedule.Obviously, the news they got was false, and it was used by the Kingdom of Truth to eliminate internal traitors.

Several cities in the United States experienced irreversible collapses, with tens of thousands of dead and missing. Major cities including New York instantly became the most dangerous and terrifying forbidden places in the world, blocked by layers of troops.

The Presbyterian Church also suffered heavy casualties, but Chu Yang's father did not die in the observation force nuclear bomb launch of the Kingdom of Truth.He was shot in the heart during the chaos surrounded by an angry mob in the second month after that incident and died instantly.

After the terrorist attack in the country of truth, the entire United States fell into panic and chaos.The scene of the collapse was too terrifying, beyond anyone's cognitive limit, but it happened to be played on TV over and over again.The spirit of all zero-level observers has been affected to some extent, and everyone is afraid that there are multiple observers around them.The mob broke out, and the government deliberately leaked the name list of the "chief envoy" who assassinated the king of the Kingdom of Truth in order to avoid guilt.

The people of the whole country were outraged.

Originally, when the concept of multi-observer gradually spread in the ordinary world, the hostility towards such people was extremely strong.Because they have too much power beyond ordinary people, they can even rewrite the reality of objective officials that will never be changed due to subjective factors in the eyes of everyone.Moreover, the number of such people is beyond imagination, and it is easy to be regarded as a threat.And now, that claim has apparently been confirmed.They don't remember that it was the Nation of Truth that instigated this attack, and they don't remember the national panic when the nuclear bomb threatened. They only remember that it was the power of multiple observers that caused this terrorist attack.

As a result, everyone is in danger and regards multi-observers as a scourge, and even a reporting website has appeared to facilitate people to check whether there are dangerous elements around them.

When the threat of a second strike from the Realm of Truth came, people didn't care whether the statue had been destroyed or not, fear overwhelmed everything.Fear breeds anger and violence, and people feel that as long as they kill the person who killed the King of Truth, everything will be fine.

Lynch himself also used the star color too much at that time, which caused the whole person to age about 30 years old, and his hair was gray.He endured the misunderstanding that Chu Yang, whose memory went back to five years ago, regarded him as a rich pervert, and tried every means to prevent Chu Yang from seeing the news and receiving outside information.But he knew that one day Chu Yang would recover, so what should he do then?he does not know……

Chu Yang was about to endure the great pain of destruction that he had tasted before, the pain of losing a loved one.But he couldn't save him.

He hated himself for being unable to save Chu Yang's father at the time, and hated himself for not being able to protect anyone after all.After living in vain all these years, he thought he had become stronger, but in fact he was still as powerless as he was 80 years ago.

He thought of what his mother had said to him in that weird dream.

All the people he loves are waiting for him.

Temporary death is not the end.

They can create a whole new world.

Is that really a dream?But some kind of weird chaotic power flowing in the body really exists.He didn't know how much power he had absorbed from the statue, but his seemingly normal body was undergoing some changes.Sometimes he would find that under the wounds in his hands it was no longer the familiar color of the stars, but a thick, unsettling darkness.

He knew he might come back stronger than before when he recovered.Maybe one day, he can really go with Chu Yang to realize what his mother said to him in his dream.

The legendary Crunch, freeing the imprisoned gods, ending all sin and suffering, and resurrecting all the dead.

If there is still a chance to make up for all the pain and loss, he is willing to do everything in exchange.
