The Heavens: Cthulhu started from Hokage

"It is not the dead who sleep eternally,"

"Even death itself will disappear in the mysterious eternity."

In the suburbs of Konoha, in a basement somewhere.

In an underground space surrounded by metal structures and green lights, Orochimaru's face was distorted, his pupils reflected a strange light, and he was reading the masterpiece called "The Necronomicon" with great interest.

A bizarre scene unfolded in front of him, and Orochimaru entered a world he had never entered before.

The "Necronomicon" has more than 800 pages in total, and is recorded in densely packed tadpole-shaped fonts on human skin paper.

Orochimaru couldn't understand these weird tadpole-shaped fonts, but that didn't matter.

In addition to text, the "Necronomicon" also records a large number of complex incantations, showing that it is the ultimate book of witchcraft.

Orochimaru looked at it infatuatedly, rubbing his fingers over the beautiful incantations on the paper, and sighed:

"Look, they are so beautiful. Even the most beautiful women in the world cannot compare with them."

With his eyes, he could naturally see that these incantations were miniature magic circles used to mobilize energy. Each incantation contained a very sophisticated and complex structure.

This knowledge is too advanced for current humans.

Orochimaru shook his head first, then nodded.

"Thanks to a genius like me, these wonderful little things can be brought to light again."

He clapped his hands, and his assistant came to him carrying a stone tablet and gently put it down.

On the stone tablet, there is a dark purple incantation painted on it, which actually corresponds to a page in the "Book of the Dead".

The shape resembles a grinning dog.

The assistant placed the stone tablet with the incantation on it, bowed deeply, and turned to leave.

Orochimaru moved a stool, put on rimless glasses, held a small flashlight with two fingers, and carefully studied the incantation on the stone tablet with the light.

As he watched, the tip of his tongue slightly moistened his lips, and he thought:

"Since I got this "Necronomicon", I have spent half a month drawing the simplest incantation according to the content recorded on it. However, I always feel that something is missing..."

Orochimaru's eyes were fixed on the spell, and he remained still for a long time.

After a while, he clenched his right fist and hammered it on his left palm.

"Have it!"

Orochimaru's eyes were red, and he threw himself directly on the stone tablet. He licked the mantra hard with the tip of his tongue, as if the mantra was his lover or treasure.

"You need a 'sacrifice', right?"

The "Book of the Dead" contains images of ancient people using sacrifices to perform summoning rituals. The most common sacrifices are naturally...

Orochimaru tilted his head and called to the assistant who had just left.

After the assistant came in, Orochimaru ordered him:

"Choose an experimental subject!"

After a while, an adult man with shackles on his feet, wearing ragged linen clothes, and was skinny and skinny was pushed in.

This is an experimental subject that Orochimaru kidnapped from the towns and villages in the border areas.

After the experimental subject came in and faced Orochimaru, his expression did not show panic or fear, but was very... calm, without any fluctuations on his face.

No, his expression was more numb than calm.

As Orochimaru's test subject, he has experienced too much inhuman torture. For him, death is simply a great relief.

Orochimaru took out a dagger.

"You should know what will happen next, right?"

The man nodded, his body stiffened, and he walked lightly to the stone tablet with the incantation on it.

Orochimaru threw the dagger in front of the man, letting him kill himself.

"Don't be too sad, you are contributing to a great cause." Orochimaru smiled.

The man had no expression on his face. He raised the dagger and wiped it on his neck. Bright red blood sprayed on the incantation on the stone tablet like an arrow.

The spell absorbed human blood, and the dark purple light suddenly became strong, covering the entire secret room.

"Hehehe, here it comes, the long-awaited moment!" Orochimaru laughed horribly.

The purple light became more dazzling, and with this light, the entire basement shook.

"Come on! Come on! Let me see what kind of monster I can summon! I'm really looking forward to it!!"

Orochimaru stretched his arms and faced the shining stone monument in a hugging posture.

But what Orochimaru didn't expect was that the purple light seemed to deliberately whet his appetite. It quickly dimmed and disappeared together with the spell.

Orochimaru was dumbfounded:

"That's not right. Is there something wrong with the structure of the spell or the choice of the sacrifice?"

Orochimaru returned to the table with a look of unwillingness, picked up the "Necronomicon" and read it carefully.

He was concentrating on the "Book of the Dead" when there was movement outside the door.

Turning around, he saw his assistant burst in, his movements somewhat panicked.

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes and looked unkind:

"What about your courtesy? Don't you have to knock on the door before I ask you to come in?"

The assistant was covered in sweat and kept saying:

"Sorry... Orochimaru-sama, it's just that there was a sudden movement of Konoha ninjas outside the door!"

Orochimaru's eyes narrowed, and he quickly closed the "Necronomicon" in his hand and put it back into his pocket.

"I must have kidnapped too many experimental subjects nearby and attracted the ANBU's attention. We need to change the laboratory!"

Orochimaru turned and pointed to the door and shouted to his assistant:

"Quick! Activate emergency facilities, destroy all experimental equipment and experimental subjects, and leave no evidence for them!"

The assistant was about to go out when he heard a movement outside the door.

Orochimaru's face suddenly turned livid and he cursed:

"These dogs with sensitive noses! How did they come so fast!"

"Lord Orochimaru, then I still want to..."

"Don't worry about it, retreat first!"

Orochimaru activated the secret door of the underground laboratory, and the two of them quickly slipped out of the secret door.

As soon as Orochimaru stepped out of the laboratory, several Konoha ANBU wearing white masks broke in.

"Humph, is there no one?"

"The guy who was born in the year of the rat can run so fast!"

The ANBU glanced around and found that there was no living person, and sounded quite dissatisfied.

"Hey, boss, what should we do with the bodies here?"

The ANBU leader of this mission stepped forward and turned the subject over. Seeing the wound on the subject's neck and the dagger in his hand, the experienced man immediately understood that the cause of death of this person was suicide.

Who is this person and why did he commit suicide here?

All kinds of doubts linger in the mind of the ANBU captain.

He said to an ANBU:

"This corpse is a little weird. If you take him away, you might be able to get some useful information from it."

The ANBU nodded and carried the experimental subject on his shoulders.

"Hey, I heard that Orochimaru is secretly conducting human experiments. I don't know if it's true or not."

"Stop guessing. We are just ordinary ninjas. Don't worry about so much. We just clock in and clock in every day."

After the ANBU ninjas collected the equipment information of the underground laboratory, they destroyed the laboratory with a fire and were about to return to Konoha to return to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

The ANBU ninjas did not feel that the "dead man" they were carrying on their shoulders flicked their fingers undetectably...
