Chapter 361 Before Everything

An hour ago, Port-au-Prince, inside the hotel.

"More people came to the festival than expected."

Glancing at the crowd outside the window through the glass, Detective Zhou frowned and said something.

In fact, as early as a day ago, voodoo believers from all over Haiti had arrived one after another.

As the most grand festival in the local area, the Voodoo Festival is a religious festival with a strong mysterious color. Its main purpose is not to celebrate, but to dedicate faith to the god of Voodoo, Loa. It was originally an extremely bloody and terrifying festival. ceremony.

It's just that with the development of time, the voodoo festival has gradually changed a little, and some bloody sacrifice ceremonies have been restrained.

The human sacrifices in the past were replaced by animal sacrifices, and the entire sacrificial ceremony was gradually replaced in the direction of festivals.

In addition, in recent decades, the influence of voodoo has gradually expanded. The local government of Haiti has defined this event, which was originally a religious ceremony, as one of the festivals, which not only represents the belief in voodoo, but also stimulates the domestic economy. .Among them, former President Duvalier played a key role.

It is also the same person who made voodoo more terrifying in the minds of the local Haitian people.

The local Haitians believe that if you do not participate in the voodoo festival, you will be cursed by the gods and have bad luck in the next year.

"Maybe it has something to do with the statement from the presidential palace."

"Although the Voodoo Festival is an important local festival, in the past, except for the former President Duvalier, few presidents personally participated in the parade. Haitians prayed and attracted many Haitians to participate.”

Whatever the purpose of the new president's participation in the voodoo festival, it is clear that his practice is adding a bit of political meaning to the already lively festival celebration.

Similarly, it also brought some obstacles to the next actions of the members of Amanda's team.

"Zhou, I need you to keep an eye on the movement of the local presidential palace."

Frowning, he explained to Agent Zhou beside him.

The latter nodded and covered his face with the hood in his hand.

"Next, everyone will act according to the order. Zhou, you are in charge of monitoring the movement of the presidential palace, and Phil, you are..."

Taking a deep breath, he swept across the people in the room.

Amanda's eyes lingered on the fortuneteller Joy for a while. Since he woke up in the morning, the other party has remained silent, not only whether he is worried about the upcoming prophecy.

Putting away her inner thoughts, Amanda looked at the team members, and the expressions on everyone's faces were more or less nervous in the face of the coming moment.

Because, from the fortuneteller's prophecy, they already knew that what they would face next might be a huge disaster.

Sitting on a chair, touching the ring on his hand.

Spike turned his eyes and looked at the fortune-teller beside him.

Compared with Amanda, he can feel the other party's preoccupied heart at the moment.

This kind of situation made the psychic medium feel a little dignified.

"Tell me, what did you see, Joey?"

Following Spike's inquiry, the fortune-teller who had been motionless and silent in the room seemed to be awakened.

He looked up at Spike at the side, met his slightly drooping eyes, and twitched the corners of his mouth to reveal a rather ugly smile.

"Trust me, you never want to know."

The conversation between the two attracted the attention of everyone in the room.

Amanda stopped her arrangement and looked at Joey and Spike who were sitting not far away.

They did not deliberately suppress the voice of the conversation.

"I've been through worse things."

Touching the ring in his hand, Spike replied calmly.

Facing Spike's answer and the attention of everyone in the surrounding team, the fortune-teller took a deep breath, and then opened his mouth to tell the future he 'saw': "Not long ago, I foresaw a picture of the future again."

"It's just that this time the future is more exciting than the past... Maybe it's because my appearance has changed the original future. After all, in the previous future, I didn't appear in it..."

"I shouldn't have come, I thought I could change this, but obviously, it just made it worse."

The fortune teller's tone was full of regret and annoyance, as if he felt extremely regretful about everything he had done.

"Tell me, Joey, what exactly do you see in the future?"

Affected by the fortune teller's emotions, everyone in the room became a little depressed.

From the words of the other party, it is obvious that their situation in the predicted future is not optimistic.

"I saw images of everyone dying."

"The voodoo festival has been a ritual from the very beginning. The voodoo sect used all of this to open the door to the [spirit world], summoned the queen of the voodoo sect, and became the medium through which the voodoo and loa gods came to reality, and the world shrouded Under the power of voodoo."

"Is this the future where darkness rises?"

Hearing the predicted 'future' from Joey's mouth, Amanda subconsciously thought of Darkness Rises.

After all, voodoo is a religion based on fear, and if the gods they believe in appear in the real world, they can indeed be called darkness.

"No, the real rise of darkness should not be so simple."

Shaking his head, Spike obviously didn't think that just the loa of the voodoo religion could be called the rise of darkness by [Sai Gong].

"But it's clearly a start."

"If we can't stop this."

Looking at Amanda aside, Spike's tone was unusually serious.

Although the truth about the rise of darkness has not been clarified yet, the psychic knows very well that once the future that Joey said is realized, the world will suffer an unprecedented catastrophe.

This is not a good thing for BSI or Spike.

For the former, Haiti is a country adjacent to the United States. There is no doubt that once the voodoo queen comes, the United States will become one of the first countries to be affected.

And with the pissing nature of the United States, once the danger is found to be approaching, the reaction will be unprecedentedly huge. After all, in history, except for the civil war, most of the wars in the United States were not in the mainland.It will not allow, a threat so great to be around.

The most likely outcome would be to drag the whole world into the water and be buried with him.

As for the latter, Spike didn't have the idea of ​​dying until he found the object of revenge.

"However, if the future that Joey sees is destined to come true, then no matter how we struggle..."

Frowning, Agent Zhou looked at the people in the room, touched his wooden arm, and said in a deep voice.

If the future cannot be changed, then everything they have done will be in vain.
