Nyarlathotep, the outer god who represents chaos among the three pillar gods, is keen on deceiving and tempting humans. He is the factor of madness, chaos and destruction. He sets traps for those who are not cautious. His greatest The fun is to induce human beings to fall into terror and despair until they become insane.He is also known as the God of Thousand Faces, with countless incarnations. Chaos, confusion, deception, and conspiracy are his specialties.

Salomon was now certain that Nyarlathotep was absolutely aware of Randolph Carter's conversation with him, and also knew that Randolph had told him that there were thousands of incarnations of the lurking Chaos.The mystic is also certain that if the Natasha in front of him has not been replaced, then the Matthew Hopkins she saw going to the witch's residence is definitely the incarnation of Nyarlathotep. It was to remind Salomon that Salem's Nyarlathotep incarnation was more than just a "man of darkness". It had already planted seeds of doubt in the mystic's heart, waiting for those seeds to take root and sprout.

What the Mystic Mage has to do is to determine whether the Natasha in front of her is herself.If so, what other incarnations in Salem were unknown to Salomon?And who did those incarnations become?Coulson?Or Judge Cotton Mather?

If not, then Natasha is one of the incarnations of Nyarlathotep. Where did the real Natasha go?How to find her?What was he going to do with the incarnation of Naija in front of him?Did He lie about Matthew Hopkins?Is the incarnation in front of me the one transformed by the Dark One? Is there only one incarnation of Nyarlathotep in Salem?

A large number of problems arise in an instant, and several mutually reversing problems are entangled together. This is the fun of Nyarlathotep. Everyone who faces him must be very cautious and use his or her lifetime wisdom to solve it. The fatal question Nyarlathotep left behind.Salomon did not think immediately, but put the wand against the throat of the person in front of him - the most important thing was to ensure that Natasha/Nyarlathotep could not pose a threat to him.

"I said." Natasha/Nyarlathotep said, "It was a children's hospital, and I burned it down. That's what I regret most. I told you before, if this There is a devil in the world, so he has done what he wants to do through my hands."

The mystic did not move his wand, and the blue aura on the tip of the wand was ready to go.He had no hope of finding out the answer to this question.Because he couldn't confirm whether Nyarlathotep would get Natasha's memory if he replaced Natasha.It is a paradox for a person to prove that she is objectively herself. This philosophical identity problem is Salomon's trap for the possible incarnation of Nyarlathotep, which he and The psychological game played by Nyarlathotep.

"You don't believe it, do you?" Natasha/Nyarlathotep blinked, "I have read philosophical books on the identity issue in my spare time. This is an issue that is almost impossible to prove. If you add Hume If I have a skeptical philosophy, then I can’t prove it. After all, I have eaten breakfast, and the elements and cells I am composed of must be different from before. Little boy, what are you doubting?”

Whether it is Nyarlathotep or Natasha, they will involve philosophical knowledge, which proves nothing.

"You don't know how many people in the world like you." Salomon changed the topic, but his hand holding the wand remained steady. "In fact, when I was studying oil painting when I was 12 years old, I also painted Past the oil painting about you.”

"I didn't know you were a fan of mine." Natasha/Nyarlathotep laughed, even though half of her face was now covered by a fake beard.She said, "Did you know about SHIELD at that time? Wasn't the EU Young Scientists Award Ceremony the first time we met? What did you draw? What clothes was I wearing? Tights? Business clothes... Or underwear?”

"I have known about your existence for a long time." Nothing Salomon said was pointed, it could be directed at Natasha or Nyarlathotep.He said, "What I painted is an oil painting of you wearing a Japanese high school girl's uniform, a red cheongsam, and extremely gorgeous court clothes."

The various human incarnations of Nyarlathotep mentioned by Salomon. As for the uniforms of Japanese female high school students... Who knows if Nyarlathotep has an incarnation called Nayakko, the God of Thousand Faces? The name was not placed on His head for no reason, so we might as well bring it up now.

"Okay~ I really didn't know you liked this." Natasha/Nyarlathotep turned her eyes away, her expression looking a little embarrassed.But this was only on the surface. In fact, her answer was still watertight. Salomon didn't know whether this was due to agent instinct or Nyarlathotep's characteristics.

"I just think that the clothes you wear are very suitable." Even if he dug holes repeatedly, the man in front of him did not reveal any doubts about his connection with Nyarlathotep.Salomon frowned, because he couldn't waste all his time on this matter. If he did, he would fall into Nyarlathotep's trap.

He thought of a way to verify his identity - since it can't be determined verbally, it would be a good way to jump out of the problem and solve it from the outside.Although this method is extremely costly and risky, it is not undesirable. Salomon is confident that he can master the safety of this method.

He took a step forward, forcing Natasha/Nyarlathotep to turn her back to him, and walked deeper into the alley.

------------

"I'm sorry, really, really sorry." Salomon followed Natasha, following her through the dark narrow alleys of the town, and behind him, there was a dog.Natasha, who was walking in front, had a large red and black bloodstain on her chest and back, but there were no wounds under the bloodstains.No matter how much the Mystic Mage apologized, Natasha didn't want to pay attention to him, and Salomon could understand it. After all, Natasha died in front of her for about 50 seconds, and he did it himself.

This was how Salomon verified her identity.

Because Nyarlathotep can be killed by physical means in his human state. If he is killed, the body will begin to vibrate and expand after falling down, and finally explode, and a huge monster with long claws (or other monster form) will emerge.The repulsive monstrosity will fly from the dismembered body into the sky, disappearing without further infesting its slayer.This is the knowledge Professor Randolph Carter gave to Salomon, and the reason why the mystic has the courage not to worry about accidental killing is because of a spell he masters - the three-ring necromantic spell resurrection.This is a positive energy spell that can resurrect a creature that has been dead for less than 1 minute in a near-death state. The mystic spent diamonds worth 6 pounds of gold to cast this magic.

Without warning, he inserted the dagger into Natasha's heart along the gap between her ribs. After confirming that Natasha's body had not changed after she died of massive blood loss, Salomon revived her.In addition to casting this spell, he also cast a spell "Healing Injuries" and poured a lot of medicine into Natasha, which allowed her wounds to heal and she regained her health.

Salomon himself did not want to conduct such a verification again, because not only was this method risky, but also because he had squandered all the life-replenishing potions in his dimensional bag.Ling Ling finally calculated that what he spent was enough to perform another resurrection spell.

Natasha was angry that Salomon didn't tell her this method in advance, and didn't even say hello. "I imagined many ways to die." She glared at Salomon fiercely, "but I never thought I would die in this way."

"You only died for a minute, Natasha. This is nothing, and you are still alive and well now, with no scars. I feel that you are even healthier than before. Because I also gave you some drink The medicine you didn't need, if you had any diseases that would affect you, are gone now - except for cancer." The mystic mage blinked, "The reason why I don't tell you is to catch you by surprise. Only in this way can we achieve the goal. The effect of verification. Otherwise, the other party may pretend to be dead, making it impossible for me to confirm the death, and then I will fall into another dilemma."

"I actually died once." Natasha lowered her voice, "How on earth did you come up with this idea!"

"This is a secret, you can't know it." The mystic mage curled his lips, "Also, maybe you will die a second time, but I will try my best not to let it happen a second time."

"This is the best news I've heard today!" Natasha rolled her eyes, "I'm going back to the hotel to take a shower. Thanks to you, I stand out wherever I go wearing these clothes!"
