Book of the Otherworld

Chapter 144 The Monster in the Cellar
Pushing open the door of the interrogation room, Xing Tianyu was pushed in by the bearded man.

The white-faced man—to be exact, Victor was already waiting there.

He still had that charming, confident, slightly sickly smile on his face. His handsome appearance, mysterious temperament, and the invisible dark power surrounding him gave him a sense of self. An unfathomable sense of oppression.

However, this sense of oppression has no effect on Xing Tianyu today. After seeing Victor's tragic childhood, it is really difficult to feel any fear of this guy.

"Good morning Mr. Xing, please take a seat, I think we can start."

Xing Tianyu nodded, "Good morning—of course," while talking, Xing Tianyu sat down on the chair, put his feet on the table very casually, folded his arms, and assumed a very comfortable posture , "Well, where should I start, how about this, today I will talk about how the book of other worlds fell into my hands."

As he spoke, he began to talk about how Qin Gang left the book of other worlds to Qin Ming, how the four of them went to the mountain to count the inheritance, and how they embarked on the road of summoners.

As a writer, Xing Tianyu has a certain level of storytelling, and he told the thrilling experience one after another.

Victor listened very carefully. While listening to the story, he was also observing Xing Tianyu. What made him a little strange was that when telling the information, Xing Tianyu was very relaxed, without any tension or anxiety at all. It feels like he has fully accepted the situation.

He looked at Xing Tianyu in front of him, and vaguely felt that something was wrong with the other party. At this moment, the fear in the other party's eyes was completely gone, and instead there was an expression that everything was under control.

At this time, the story is almost over, Xing Tianyu nodded, "This is the information I want to say today."

Victor threw away the doubts in his heart and shook his head, "We already know this information, why don't we tell you something we don't know."

Xing Tianyu shook his head with a smile, "Hehe, I'm afraid this won't work. I want to gradually reveal the information I know in ten days. If I talk too much today, I won't know what to say in the future. Why don't you Tell me about you, I am really curious, why Ning Hanwei will cooperate with you, what is the goal of your dark abyss sect, to rule the world? To gain benefits? Or—”

"Why should I tell you this?" Victor interrupted Xing Tianyu with a sneer.

Xing Tianyu shrugged, "Anyway, idleness is idleness, and anyway, according to what you said, I will definitely die in ten days, why don't you tell me some information, so that I can be a ghost when I die, besides, your plot is obvious Not small, don’t you feel sorry if such a powerful plan cannot be known to outsiders all the time in your heart? Why don’t you tell me, let me marvel, and you can satisfy your own vanity.”

But Victor snorted coldly, "Do you think I'm the retarded villain in those Hollywood movies? I won't tell you any information, maybe you won't say it, but why should I take such a risk. "

Unexpectedly, the other party was not fooled at all, which made Xing Tianyu a little depressed, but he was not in a hurry. He couldn't ask in reality, so he could ask in his dream, "Okay, if you insist, then if it's okay, I'll May I have my room?"

But Victor became more and more puzzled. Although the person in front of him showed a tough look yesterday, from his eyes, Victor can always see fear, see the other person's anxiety and fear of being in danger. However, at this moment, the other party has a completely nonchalant expression, completely without the fear of yesterday, as if he is not in a prison, but a resort hotel that he can leave at any time.

"You seem to be in good spirits. Why, aren't you worried about your own life?" Victor asked tentatively, trying to find out the reason for the other party's relaxation.

Xing Tianyu smiled slightly, "Of course don't worry, we have already bet that we will see the outcome in ten days, so at least I will be safe in these ten days, and as long as there are ten days, my friends will definitely find me and put I rescued him, so I have nothing to worry about, hehe, didn't I already tell you yesterday, why did I suddenly ask again. "

After hearing this, Victor felt that something was wrong. His place was very secret, and it was absolutely impossible for the other party to find it, but the other party's self-confidence made him a little uncertain. In the end, it could only be attributed to the other party's blind optimism.

"Hmph, if you really think so, then do as you please, Ivan, and take him down."

"Yes, my lord priest," the bearded man named Ivan left holding Xing Tianyu's arm.

Victor didn't leave immediately. He sat in the dark, always feeling that something was wrong. He felt an inexplicable sense of anxiety in his heart, as if things were getting out of his control. This premonition rarely appeared, but Every time it appears, it indicates that something bad is happening, but after carefully calculating the countermeasures for the past two days, there is really no flaw.

At this time, the bearded man had already returned.

"I've put him in a cell."

Victor nodded noncommittally: "Ivan, what did he do after he was locked up yesterday?"

"I didn't do anything, except to eat, drink and go to the toilet, and spent most of my time lying in bed and sleeping."

"Didn't you try to escape?"

"No, not even trying."

"So has there been any movement outside recently?"

"There is no movement, my lord priest."

Victor nodded. Since everything is normal, it stands to reason that there will be absolutely no problems, but he still warned, "Let them keep an eye on the outside, and that Xing Tianyu must also keep an eye on it." , He has to report to me immediately if he has any abnormal behavior."

"Yes, Lord Priest." Ivan said casually. For some reason, Victor always felt that the other party was a little careless.

In the next few days, Xing Tianyu would go to tell Victor about things related to the Book of Other Worlds every morning. He kept the rhythm very carefully, only talking about information that didn’t make much sense, and also revealed some Regarding information about other worlds, Victor would ask some questions from time to time, most of them were about summoning rituals, different worlds in different worlds, and sometimes he would ask questions about other summoners.

While answering the other party's questions, Xing Tianyu was also observing the other party. Through these questions, he could see that this Victor had a certain understanding of the Book of Other Worlds, but he didn't know much about the specific content. It seems that things like the Book of Other Worlds are widely known, but there must be very few people who own them.

After a few days, Xing Tianyu and Victor became familiar with each other through the conversation. When Xing Tianyu asked to add some more fruits to his food, Victor readily complied with his request.

The two even had an afternoon tea together, but even though their relationship seemed to become harmonious, Xing Tianyu did not relax because of this. He could feel that as long as ten days came, as long as the other party got what he wanted Information, I will definitely die, and Victor will never let him die because of the relationship between the two people, and even this harmonious relationship may itself be faked by Victor.

So as long as it is night, he will enter the nightmare world to peek at the dreams of these people in the base. The number of members in the base has not changed much, and the number of dreams is always maintained at the scale of six or seven people. Tianyu's observation is also much more convenient. After five days, he has basically confirmed the past identities of these ordinary members.

One thing he has basically confirmed is that the members of this Darkest Abyss Cult are basically extremely disappointed with the real world, have suffered a lot of psychological trauma, or are world-weary to a certain extent, or have been abandoned by others. , or because of some kind of injustice that killed one's relatives, or suffered a huge setback in life aspirations, or had a miserable childhood.

These tragic pasts are so deeply etched in their memories that they can easily see them in their dreams, although there are exceptions. Among them is a guy in his 30s named Jack, whose dreams are strange and completely devoid of reality. There are no rules at all, it seems that they are all false dreams, and none of them seem like real dreams.

Moreover, the content of the dream was so crazy and weird that Xing Tianyu even suspected that this guy's nerves must be very abnormal.

By observing these dreams, Xing Tianyu knows almost all the members of this base like the back of his hand, even though he has never even seen most of them in reality.

And the more he understood these people, the more confident he became.

After gaining a preliminary understanding of other people's past, Xing Tianyu focused his energy on Victor's dream.

Victor always had the same dream repeatedly. He dreamed that he was forced to go to the cellar by Edward and other friends, but he ran away every time. This made Xing Tianyu a little curious about the cellar. Other dreams have no useful value at all, they can only reflect some of Victor's personality traits from the side, but Xing Tianyu has already understood these, so they are not very useful.

On this day, after Victor had the dream about the cellar again, Xing Tianyu decided to help himself.

"Victor, where are you, you coward, come out!"

Shouts sounded far away, Victor hid behind a rose, trembling, why, why must he go to that cellar!I obviously told them there are monsters there!
He was thinking bitterly, when suddenly, a voice sounded behind him.

"Victor, what are you doing here?"

Victor suddenly turned his head and was startled. The person standing behind him turned out to be his father, who was looking at him with a gloomy face at this moment, "Father, I——I'm playing hide-and-seek with them." Victor was also quick-witted, and immediately came up with an excuse.

"Hmph, you're lying, you dare to lie to me, you little bastard, your skin is tight, right?" Victor's heart tightened at his father's words, and then he felt a little strange, why his father's tone was so weird?

But before he had time to think about it, Victor's father had already picked him up.

"You little bastard who is lying, hehe, it seems that I have to give you some punishment."

Victor was carried by his father all the way to the entrance of the cellar.

Seeing the dark entrance, Victor was startled: "No, no, father, there are monsters in there!"

"Monster, still lying, why do I have such a useless son like you." Xing Tianyu said pretending to be angry, while slapping Victor's ass, he looked angry on the surface, but in his heart But he laughed secretly, no matter how awesome you are, why don't you obediently call me Dad.

That's right, this Victor's father was transformed by Xing Tianyu.

After beating enough, Xing Tianyu directly threw him into the cellar.

He was very curious about what was hidden in the cellar that impressed Victor so much. After throwing Victor into the cellar, he immediately became invisible and followed in.

In the darkness of the cellar, Victor walked forward slowly in the darkness with fear, and Xing Tianyu followed behind him, wanting to see what was hidden in the cellar in his memory.

The cellar was so dark that even Xing Tianyu couldn't see his surroundings clearly. He wasn't surprised. This was probably caused by Vic's subconscious.

"You are finally here," a weird and distorted voice suddenly sounded in the darkness.
