Let's start by analyzing the sun
#208 - [205] The Awakening of the Alien God, Sin and the Serpent of Life (5K Chapter)
Chapter 206 [205] Awakening of the Alien God, the Serpent of Sin and Life (5K Chapter)
The sky was dark.
Xing Peng, the new patrolman of the Third Outpost, and "Wu Lun," the senior patrolman, strode towards Ningping Ward.
A strong spirit mastiff was leading the way, wagging its tail happily from time to time.
The purpose of the two men and a dog was to investigate whether there were any missing persons in Ningping Ward.
This was an urgent task personally assigned by the outpost chief.
A result must be given today.
"Creak!"
The sound of trampling on the snow was very rhythmic.
Recently, the bizarre day and night reversal, as well as the strange cycle of the four seasons, had all stopped, and the harsh winter had returned.
The heavy snow that had fallen for days had once again given An Hua City a new look.
The brown oil street lamps on both sides of the road had already been lit by professional lamp lighters.
While walking, the shadows projected on the snow kept changing, as if they were restless and strange.
Wu Lun talked about the past with emotion: "When I was a child, I was most afraid of shadows. I would hide in the quilt every night when it was dark, and I didn't dare to go out."
The dog moved its ears, its dog eyes showing surprise.
Xing Peng asked in surprise: "Patrolman Wu, could it be that you witnessed a 'shadow apparition' when you were a child?"
This was the most logical guess.
Because only in this way, leaving a serious psychological shadow, would there be these abnormal behaviors.
Wu Lun nodded: "When I was five years old, I personally saw a carriage being swallowed by a shadow apparition, along with the six passengers and the coachman on the carriage. They didn't even have time to jump out of the carriage."
Xing Peng commented: "This shadow apparition is of a very high level."
Wu Lun颔首 ("Wu Lun hán shǒu" translates to "Wu Lun nodded" or "Wu Lun assented"): "Yes, my parents were on the carriage. If I hadn't been too naughty at the time and jumped off the carriage, I'm afraid I would have lost my life."
He sighed again: "If I had called them down at that time, perhaps the tragedy could have been avoided."
The spirit mastiff glanced back, its tail stopped wagging.
The smile on Xing Peng's face disappeared: "Patrolman Wu, this is not your fault."
Wu Lun shook his head and sighed: "Almost forty years have passed, and I have almost forgotten my parents' faces."
Xing Peng didn't know how to respond, so he remained silent.
After turning a corner.
Wu Lun changed the topic and asked with a smile: "I heard that you got engaged yesterday, and the wedding will be held in six days. The woman will bring a dowry worth three hundred gold coins?"
Xing Peng said "Hmm," trying his best to suppress his smile.
He muttered triumphantly in his heart: I won the first place in the director's assessment, and the father-in-law promised a dowry of eight hundred gold coins, but I was worried that it would be too eye-catching if it spread, so I only claimed three hundred gold coins to the outside world.
Wu Lun congratulated him with a sincere expression: "Congratulations!"
Xing Peng replied seriously: "Thank you!"
"Woof!"
The dog barked.
Xing Peng laughed "Hehe" and replied: "Muer, thank you!"
The "Muer" in this sentence was the name of the spirit mastiff.
As soon as he finished speaking.
A strange thought suddenly popped into the mind of this new patrolman: Wu Lun is full of jealousy towards me and has a considerable amount of malice.
Xing Peng was startled by this thought.
He wondered if he was thinking too badly of people?
Xing Peng immediately had a second thought: Wu Lun's childhood experience made him a psychologically twisted guy, and he hates all beautiful things.
Then came the third thought: Human nature cannot stand the test, and a psychologically twisted guy cannot stand the test even more, I'd better be careful.
He was convinced by "himself".
Xing Peng didn't realize that in his sea of spirit, a faint existence flashed a glimmer of light, and then disappeared.
This was exactly the extraordinary mark that Cheng Han had quietly planted by taking advantage of the assessment opportunity.
Xing Peng glanced at Wu Lun's shadow, his pace slowed down by half a beat, and he no longer walked side by side with him.
Ten minutes later.
With the dim light of the street lamp, the outline of the community gate could be vaguely seen in front.
"Woof!"
Muer barked.
It was saying: Ning'an Ward is here.
"Woof! Woof!"
The barking of dogs floated from the entrance of the community.
This was the spirit mastiff guarding Ning'an Ward.
Xing Peng walked to the entrance of the community and affectionately stroked the dog's head a few times.
He always felt that one of the benefits of becoming a patrolman was that he could stroke the spirit mastiff at will.
Wu Lun had long lost interest in stroking dogs, and urged: "Xiao Xing, the weather is so cold, let's finish the task early and go back."
He added: "I heard that the cafeteria's supper tonight will have a special supply of barbecue. I'm afraid it will be snatched up if you go back late."
Xing Peng swallowed and replied: "Okay!"
The rich meals provided by the outpost cafeteria were another benefit he felt from becoming a patrolman.
Wu Lun rubbed his hands hard and said with a smile: "Since Director Cheng took office, the Charity Committee has donated a large amount of supplies to the Patrol Department. The food level in the outpost is much better than before."
Xing Peng didn't know what the food was like before, so he just nodded in agreement.
*
Winter Garden.
Inside the warm greenhouse garden, which was as warm as spring, was another scene.
More than a dozen exquisite gray crystal lamps shaped like colored glass lamps illuminated the huge director's office and the small pond next to it.
A fine copper barbecue grill was set up next to the pond, and a chef hired by the Fang family at a high price was concentrating on grilling a few lamb legs.
The charcoal used in the grill was the finest fruit charcoal.
The lamb legs on the barbecue grill were the most tender lamb, and each pound was sold for as much as thirty silver coins, which was equivalent to one and a half months' salary for ordinary people.
"Sizzle! Sizzle!"
The grease dripped and was ignited by the charcoal.
The tempting aroma floated in the garden.
Female secretary Ying Beibei, acting as a waiter, first sliced the lamb leg meat, then neatly placed it on a silver plate, and finally placed it in front of her boss.
In the afternoon, the director chatted with the female secretary and casually mentioned that "lamb shanks are most suitable for barbecue", and the Fang family prepared everything at the fastest speed.
The life of a big man is so boring, he can't experience the fun of doing it himself at all.
Fang Qinghuai, the owner of Winter Garden, personally brought a cup of Jin Feng sweet tea, and his tone could almost be described as kneeling and licking: "Director Cheng, please enjoy!"
Cheng Han nodded lightly, picked up a piece of grilled lamb with chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth.
With a light bite, the taste buds exploded instantly.
He nodded to Fang Qinghuai: "Not bad!"
Fang Qinghuai quickly bowed and replied: "Serving the director is the greatest honor of the Fang family!"
The owner of Winter Garden did not disturb the director's meal any further and respectfully retreated.
Ten days ago, he would never have allowed anyone to barbecue in the greenhouse of Winter Garden, which the whole family regarded as a treasure, including himself.
But today, he was happy to see it.
As long as this big man was happy, not to mention tonight, even if Director Cheng barbecued every day, every meal, it would be fine.
Cheng Han ate a few pieces of grilled meat, and with the perspective of the "chess piece", that is, the new patrolman Xing Peng, he watched the investigation process of Ningping Ward.
This was considered an evening entertainment program.
The various thoughts that popped up in Xing Peng's mind just now were naturally tricks he had quietly done.
"Wu Lun… Shadow Apparition…"
Cheng Han muttered to himself, and then, with Wu Lun as the connection, he silently performed an inference.
The illusion flashed:
A carriage dragged by shadows.
And terrified shouts.
"Lun Lun, run!"
"Lun Lun, don't come over!"
In the moment of life and death, what parents cared about most was not themselves, but the safety of their children.
In the blink of an eye.
The carriage was dragged into the shadows.
Only deep ruts were left in place.
And a crying child.
Cheng Han sighed secretly.
Subsequently.
The camera changed again.
Boundless black fog covered everything.
It was the alien world - the Eternal Dark Plain.
Among a pile of rubble, a severely damaged carriage was lying quietly on the ground. This was naturally the carriage that was dragged into the alien world by the shadow apparition.
One of the wheels flew more than ten meters away.
But the coachman and passengers were all gone, not even their remains.
Undoubtedly.
They had long become the rations of alien monsters.
Just then.
An ear-piercing sound came from a black fog.
"Lun Lun…"
The black fog suddenly surged.
An extremely distorted monster drilled out of the darkness. Its way of moving was like wriggling, but its speed was surprisingly fast.
It circled the carriage, and a sound came from a certain part.
"…Run!"
After a while.
The illusion disappeared.
Cheng Han was slightly moved: "Wu Lun's parents had strong mental obsessions before they died. The monster swallowed them and actually remembered the obsessions."
He also slightly grinned: "The past events of decades ago, involving the alien world can also be traced back. The 6th-level Omniscient Eye is stronger than I expected."

Outside Ningping Ward.
The two patrolmen found a steward and inquired about the relevant situation.
"I haven't heard of any missing persons."
The steward recalled for a moment and gave another piece of information: "Several households in Block C just moved away a few days ago. I heard they moved to the south of the city."
The two looked at each other and both sensed that there might be a problem.
Wu Lun immediately asked: "Where are their houses? Are they still vacant?"
The steward nodded repeatedly: "Vacant! No one has come to rent the houses yet."
Ningping Ward is a welfare community for the bottom-level civilians. All the property rights of the houses belong to the government, and all the residents here are tenants.
Wu Lun waved his hand: "Take us there."
The steward quickly led the way: "Please follow me, both of you."
The three men and a dog walked through the community for a while and arrived in front of an old house.
The steward took out the key to open the door and introduced: "The old Zhang family who moved away used to live here. The house is less than forty square meters, and the whole family of five squeezed here."
The two patrolmen checked around the house and found that many items had not been taken away, and there was a lot of garbage scattered on the ground.
The spirit mastiff, Muer, was also sniffing around the house, carefully checking every item.
From the surface, it could be seen that the old Zhang family seemed to have left in a hurry.
The steward remembered one thing: "Old Zhang must have made a fortune. Some of the bowls and chopsticks in the kitchen were not taken away, and were later taken away by the family next door."
Wu Lun said softly: "Something's not right!"
Xing Peng nodded, his voice also very low: "It might really be a disappearance."
The so-called "a broken family is worth ten thousand guan", for the poor, no matter how broken the family property is, whether it is useful or not, they will usually take it away.
The old Zhang family didn't even want the bowls and chopsticks, which was obviously a big problem.
Wu Lun turned to look at the steward and asked: "Which community in the south of the city did old Zhang move to?"
The steward shook his head: "I haven't heard of that."
Xing Peng's eyes flickered.
If it was really a move, there was no need to hide the whereabouts. It seemed that the family was likely to have disappeared!
Wu Lun waved his hand: "Let's go and see the next house."
The steward quickly responded: "Okay!"
*
Winter Garden.
Cheng Han watched the entire investigation of Ningping Ward through "live broadcast".
This was the benefit of inserting "nails". Although he was sitting in the office, he still had a clear understanding of the situation below.
The results of the investigation were worse than expected.
Out of more than seven hundred households in the entire community, eight households had moved, and all the time was concentrated in the last half month.
Many households did not even notify the steward until the steward came to check, and then they found that the people were gone.
Was this a coincidence?
Obviously not!
Every time Xing Peng checked a house, Cheng Han used the items left in the house as a connection to perform an inference.
The result was - a blank.
Without exception.
This was expected.
Cheng Han muttered in his heart: "The actions planned by the Dream Genesis Society must be related to the awakening of the alien god, and the shielding of divine power is inevitable."
He vaguely had a premonition that the Dream Genesis Society was making the final preparations for the resurrection of the alien god.
This matter not only involved An Hua City.
It also not only involved the Tai'an Small Spirit Realm.
But most of the small spirit realms spread throughout this world.
Cheng Han shook his head slightly, with self-awareness in his heart: "This is the highest level of game, completely beyond my ability."
Female secretary Ying Beibei, seeing her boss sighing and shaking his head again, and his expression was not very good, asked softly: "Director, what's wrong?"
Cheng Han did not answer, but ordered: "Take these away."
Ying Beibei responded and made a gesture to the servants.
Several servants immediately rushed up and worked with the chef to quickly remove the barbecue items.
*
Outside Ningping Ward.
Wu Lun and Xing Peng completed the investigation and walked out of Ningping Ward.
Next.
They still needed to investigate the situation in the other two communities.
The two patrolmen had only walked a short distance when they suddenly heard a faint whimper.
"Woo~"
Wu Lun was stunned: "The wind is rising!"
As soon as he finished speaking.
A violent gust of wind roared past.
"Swish~"
Large areas of trees around shook, and a large number of branches and leaves rubbed against each other, causing a burst of waves.
Xing Peng looked up at the night sky and frowned: "I have a feeling that there seems to be something mixed in this wind, but I can't tell what it is."
Wu Lun's expression was a little strange. He put on a listening posture and nodded: "There is a sound in the wind."
Xing Peng glanced at his colleague and asked curiously, "Inspector Wu, what did you hear?"
Wu Lun suddenly revealed a strange smile and uttered a word: "Sin!"
Xing Peng looked at the other party's smile, feeling a little uneasy: "What do you mean?"
At the same time.
A warning suddenly flashed in the mind of this new inspector: Wu Lun is likely tainted by something, I better stay away from him!
This thought was so strong that Xing Peng instantly believed it.
Wu Lun's tone was almost chanting: "I just heard a sentence from the wind, every life in the world is born bearing sin..."
"Bang!"
Xing Peng decisively kicked the snow, and his whole body quickly retreated.
This is the 'Ascending Magpie' technique!
While in mid-air, he shouted: "Mu'er, run!"
"Woof?"
The dog's bark was a little confused.
But the dog obeyed the order and ran straight into the distance.
Wu Lun looked up at the sky, his expression filled with a frightening madness: "I was born bearing sin!"
In the next instant.
This person underwent a terrifying change.
His eyes turned into strange dark green vertical pupils, similar to those of snakes or lizards, and countless tiny scales appeared all over his skin, shimmering with a strange luster.
At this time, Wu Lun looked completely unlike a human.
"Bang!"
Xing Peng's feet landed, and he felt chills all over his body as he looked at his colleague's appearance.
My God!
How did Old Wu become like this?
Wu Lun suddenly stuck out his tongue, the tip of his tongue turning into a forked shape: "Repay for your sins!"
He leaped up and pounced straight over.
*
Winter Garden.
Cheng Han was extremely astonished: "What exactly did Wu Lun hear, how could he turn into this inhuman, ghostly state?"
He decisively performed a deduction.
The coolness on his scalp surged like a tide.
His mental value instantly plummeted by more than forty points.
Cheng Han was surprised rather than pleased.
The drop in mental value was so large, it must have analyzed something extraordinary, mostly related to a foreign god.
Half a breath later.
Cheng Han heard a mumbled voice that was extremely awkward.
Although it was not human language.
He completely understood the sentence.
Its meaning was: "To be born is to be sinful! In my name, all life is born in sin, and will bear sin, and will eventually die in sin!"
The All-Knowing Eye also provided a key piece of information: the speaker's name is - Serpent of Sin and Life!
This is the name of a divine office!
Cheng Han was shocked.
Previously, he guessed that the god's name was "Lord of Life", but now it seems he only guessed half of it correctly.
Subsequently.
An illusion arrived unexpectedly.
This was an endless expanse of black water.
Or rather, a black ocean.
Countless illusory souls were struggling on the surface of the black water, constantly wailing.
"I am guilty!"
"I was born guilty!"
This scene was enough to cause nightmares.
And in the deepest part of the black water, a blurry black shadow with an incredibly long body, roughly estimated to be no less than ten kilometers, was quietly sleeping.
A monstrous wave instantly surged in Cheng Han's heart.
This is the divine body!
So the new persona of the Dark Anomaly Lord is called - Serpent of Sin and Life!
At this moment.
The black shadow seemed to sense the prying, and its long tail suddenly trembled.
"Boom!"
A huge wave suddenly surged on the surface of the black ocean.
Illusory souls floated and sank within it.
The wailing grew louder.
"I am guilty!"
"I was born guilty!"
These voices converged into a huge torrent, frantically impacting Cheng Han's head.
He groaned, and blood trickled from his nose.
The illusion was forced to stop.
This was the price of peeking at a foreign god.
Not only that.
A phantom murmur of "I am guilty" echoed in Cheng Han's mind, and the skin on his chest wriggled almost imperceptibly, as if something was about to emerge.
He did not hesitate to communicate with the True Flame Remnant Seal, and silently recited: "Extinguish!"
Within the sea of spirit.
The light sphere representing the remnant seal instantly expanded dozens of times, releasing boundless light.
The phantom murmur disappeared.
A stream of scorching heat surged to his chest like a tide.
The skin returned to its original state.
The power of the foreign god is inclined towards "darkness".
The power of the True Flame Remnant Seal is the purest "light".
The latter is naturally the nemesis of foreign gods.
Cheng Han felt a sense of clarity in his heart: "The foreign god has awakened a part, but has not completely awakened, the murmur that Wu Lun heard was His voice!"
Fortunately, the foreign god has not fully awakened, otherwise the act of peeking just now would have brought about a more terrible backlash.
A piece of information flashed out: "Proficiency +5623, current proficiency 23990/30000, mental value is 76.8/120.5."
This analysis involved a foreign god, the level was surprisingly high, naturally bringing a lot of proficiency, worth more than half a month of effort.
The All-Knowing Eye is not far from being upgraded.
Cheng Han quickly performed a second deduction, and began to pay attention to the situation of the new inspector.
Xing Peng is a very useful chess piece, it would be a pity if he died like this.
According to the analysis information, he already understood that the Serpent of Sin and Life's voice was specifically aimed at people like Wu Lun with serious psychological problems.
Or rather, a mental flaw.
Wu Lun witnessed the death of his parents in his childhood, and always carried a strong sense of guilt in his heart.
The foreign god's "Words of Sin" penetrated Wu Lun's mind through the flaw, and induced him to degenerate into a "Sin Serpent Monster".
It must be said that with just a murmur, one can turn a person into a monster, the foreign god's methods are really terrible.
Thanks to book friend 'Shang Yun Feiyang' for the reward!
