Chapter 24 The Shepherd Passively Triggered

It was easy to pull out the solid wood secret door weighing two to three hundred kilograms, and a salty smell came from the dark corner.

The bright green emergency lights made the place look gloomy and cold, and there was a dark liquid on the ground extending from a gap in an elevator towards the secret door.

Something has come out of here.

He, or it, dragged his body full of scars, blood was flowing all the time.

Then--

George examines the frame and joints of the secret door

- This thing destroyed the metal lock of the secret door from the inside, which is an extraordinary power that should only exist in super soldiers.

It's hard to imagine that there is such a long corridor behind the hall in a clinic that looks ordinary in appearance.

The promenade is surrounded by metal, which is indestructible. The metal is engraved with strange, eye-like religious patterns with laser engraving technology. These patterns are densely packed in every gap, making people dizzy at first glance. Vomit out.

George stood at the door, hesitating.

After a while, he used a short knife to cut a small piece of the solid wood secret door.

At this moment, he suddenly discovered that the side facing the secret door was actually covered with scratches with bloodstains.

It was like an old man in suspended animation suddenly woke up in a coffin, surrounded by darkness, buried a few meters deep in the ground, with less and less oxygen.The extreme fear and desperation made them forget the pain in their bodies, and they used their nails to scratch the inner wall of the coffin over and over again, hoping to find a way out...

[Bang Dang Dang...]

The wooden block was thrown by George all the way to the door of the elevator at the end of the metal corridor.

Then, there was silence, nothing but George's breathing and the beating of his heart.

Still a little uneasy.

He simply lifted the heavy door and moved forward slowly and vigilantly.

This kind of place with a strong sense of religious ceremony is generally very dangerous, especially in such a world where there are various supernatural forces.

There might be something like flames spitting out of those eye patterns.

George walked all the way to the elevator without any risk. He pressed the down button, but it was still running, probably because there was a backup power supply.

The elevator is an industrial freight elevator, and it should be that the things that need to be transported are very huge.

The salty and foul smell came from here.

【Cracking --】

The door opened in front of George.

The more bloody and corrupt smell enveloped and swept him like a flood breaking a dam.

Frowning, George covered his mouth and nose without saying a word, and walked in.

In the elevator, every corner was smeared with blood.

It appeared that several people's carotid arteries had been slit and their hearts were pumping prodigious amounts of blood.

As long as you imagine this, you can't help but think of some ancient and evil religious rituals.

The huge device started to operate, and the sound of mechanical transmission appeared clearly in George's ears.

He cautiously leaned his back against the corner and looked at the three directions. The water dripping from the raincoat made a tick-tock sound on the dried blood.

There seemed to be some animals moving around the elevator, making dense rustling sounds.

It's the same as what I heard on the third floor.

There is only one option in the elevator, which is the fourth floor.

George soon arrived at his destination.

Layers of heavy metal doors were sensed and opened. George stepped out of the elevator. Every time he entered a floor, another door closed.

After the last metal door was opened, the sound of desperate screams and powerless murmurs sounded in the room filled with the strong smell of disinfectant.

The light was strong here, but when George got used to it, he could see everything in there.

Even he couldn't bear the churning in his stomach at last, and turned his head to retch.

A huge underground space imitating the style of a Nepalese temple, the dome is covered with dazzling lights, and the high temperature of more than [-] degrees Celsius hits the face after the door is opened.

What followed was an unbearable stench.

In this underground temple full of high-tech instruments, eleven people who seem to have a little life are fixed on the operating tables one by one with spiked wire wrapped around their bodies.

Their skin was peeled off, and their limbs were twisted in a horrific way.

They were tied bloody to the console.

Those slugs called the Sons of Deceit slither among these.

These sounds travel upward against the vacuum in the walls.

"What the hell is this place!"

In the corner George saw Painted Skin curled up in a ball that seemed to have fallen asleep, and saw more slugs weaving back and forth between their crevices.

【You seem to have found the birthplace of the desperate believers】

The system prompts in due time.

This is the place where believers in desperate situation were born.

[The shepherd's passive has been triggered]

[You need to find out the reason for the fall of the believers in the desperate situation, and try to find the only remaining humanity buried deep in its evil flesh and blood]

[The truth you absolutely don't want to see is approaching you, make a choice]

Shepherd Passive...?
George leaned on the wall.

Blood was all over his body.

He examines the talent of the shepherd—

〖Shepherd (Purple): Strength +12, Stamina +12, can capture and enslave aliens under certain conditions, the upper limit of aliens is 5. 〗

Certain conditions, captured and enslaved.

Speaking of which, the last time he encountered a believer in school, George wondered why the passive was not triggered.

It turns out that some special conditions are required?
At this time, the countless Sons of Deceit sensed the breath of a living person entering. Under the high temperature, they raised their heads, like maggots wriggling in countless carrion.

The viscera and stomach that filled the entire temple-shaped laboratory suddenly boiled, and more slugs came out of it.

Their mouthparts emit uncomfortable, unsettling babbles.

George wiped the knife clean.

The Son of Deceit seems to be the key to finding some truth, he has killed so many slugs, the memory has begun to flash in his mind like a fog.

Maybe just clearing them all can cut through the fog that hangs over memory.

But the number of the Sons of Deceit is so large that it is simply impossible to start.

George took the lighter out of his pocket.

But couldn't find gasoline or alcohol.

It was a human body with slight signs of life, howling continuously. They lost all senses, and only felt incomparable pain, darkness and despair.

Even the most vicious warden would find it difficult to impose such a capital punishment.

But the hopeless believer did just that before leaving.

What role did they play here?
