Red Moon Returns
Chapter 290 The meaning of sacrifice
Salin died after all. He took such a big risk to save another, but in the end, he got nothing.
Lin Qi was inevitably a little frustrated, but he held the round fan tightly to calm himself down, and walked out of the barracks with Judy, who had recovered from her sluggish state.
I don't know when the fog came. The valley was filled with fog. The vision was a little blurry five meters away, and even the sun was hazy.
Just after seven o'clock, the yard was full of people. All the workers came out, and the other four archaeological team members also gathered in the yard. A large group of people were in chaos.
The workers who got up early to prepare for work just now found Salin's body when they went to the lake to fetch water. When they came back to wake up their colleagues, they found that all six people in a barracks had disappeared. So they started to quarrel and woke up everyone.
Including the other four members of the archaeological team.
The four showed just the right amount of surprise, as if nothing had happened last night.
However, Lynch has figured it out. Everyone in the archaeological team was directly or indirectly involved in the few seconds of the fight last night.
According to his guess, the light represents Rooney, who led others to find Salin. Judy discovered it first and played Lynch. The mouse represents Jack Adams, who secretly followed and peeped, and was finally captured by Grakki and cut off his tail to survive. The vine represents Carl Jones, who almost succeeded in a sneak attack.
On the surface, the only person who did not participate was Dr. Jenna, but Lynch was already very clear about some basic rules of the mysterious world, one of which is that any abnormal phenomenon has its deep reasons.
The other six people are abnormal, and only one person is normal, so this person is abnormal, and there must be a reason.
The rare and terrifying Grakki appeared inexplicably in the lake, the unknown details of the ceremony, and Jenna, the archaeologist at the core of the archaeological team... For a time, all the clues were connected.
This woman may be very problematic. Maybe she is Prince William's undercover. The appearance of Grakki, even if she was not summoned by her, is related to her. Although we cannot be sure, we must pay attention.
"Doctor, there must be something wrong here. A group of people died a few years ago. This time, something went wrong as soon as we arrived, and six people were lost. Let's retreat to the village outside the mountain first."
"Yes, Mr. Jones, it's too scary here, let's evacuate first."
Several leading workers rubbed their hands anxiously and surrounded Dr. Jenna, one by one, and the noise was deafening.
"With such a heavy fog, are you leaving now to get out of the mountain or to die?" Carl Jones was disheveled, and there was still a lipstick mark of the doctor on his face, but his expression was still calm, "You should do your own thing first, remember not to leave the camp, wait until the fog dissipates to see the situation and make a decision, otherwise you will all fall to death on the road."
Hearing that they were not stopped, and that what the other party said was indeed very reasonable, the panic of the workers was gradually controlled, and they followed Carl Jones's orders to prepare tools. Only then did the six people in the archaeological team have the opportunity to gather together secretly.
"It's foggy, and it's so thick." Carl quickly returned to the team and said seriously, "Last night they said we'd know where the entrance is today. Could this be the fog?"
"I know the same information as you, little Carl." Dr. Jenna was fiddling with a few instruments like sextants, and didn't seem to care about it. She said without raising her head, "But it's abnormal to say that it's unrelated to something so strange that happened suddenly, so there's nothing strange about it. What I care about is that Salin died. Did anyone notice any abnormal behavior in the past few days?"
"No."
Several people looked at each other and shook their heads in confusion.
"After all, we are companions. Even if it's not for the successful completion of the ceremony, we need to find out the cause of his death." Dr. Jenna put down the instrument and sighed faintly, "Let's go check on him first, and then consider the entrance to the ancient tomb when we come back."
Hiss, don't you know what's going on in the lake?
Lynch's heart tightened, but when she saw the other people nodded in agreement calmly, she also maintained a mysterious smile and did not comment. Anyway, Graki would not come out to target only me. If you are not worried, then what should I be afraid of?
The diffuse fog made it difficult to see the small lake clearly. The group approached the lake carefully until they were very close, and then they noticed a black thing lying by the lake. It must be Salin's body.
"It is said that the fog had already risen in the morning. The workers came to the lake several times but did not notice Salin's body. The last time they accidentally stepped on the body and found it." Dr. Jenna sighed and said regretfully, "I didn't ask them to move the body, just to show it to everyone."
"Let me take a look, you help me look around, especially in the lake, don't hide anything in the fog."
Carl Jones held the rapier and approached carefully. Lynch thought about it and followed him. Carl did not refuse. He squatted down beside the body, put on gloves and began to examine the body familiarly.
The dead person should be Salin, lying face down on the rocks by the lake, his body was dry, just a little damp in the mist.
The skin of the body was pale and bloodless, and the fatal wound was on the chest. There was a round hole where the heart was, but strangely, there was no blood on the clothes, as if no blood had flowed out of the wound.
In addition, there were only a few scratches on the limbs, which were still fresh and not even treated.
After reporting all this, Carl Jones made a gesture of invitation, then stepped aside and pressed the hilt of the sword to help guard.
Lin Qi did not lean over, but just shook the fan.
[Power, death, ability, sense death. ]
Ability activated, vision changed.
This time it went quite smoothly. There was no fog in the black and white vision, everything was clear. Lin Qi saw a figure staggering towards the lake.
The black and white figure, the staggering steps, the trance, the mumbling lips, the weird process, made Lin Qi feel like he saw Sadako crawling out of the ancient well.
The figure stopped at the lakeside, knelt down with a plop, and faced the lakeside straight. Then a spike shot out from the lake and pierced directly into Salin's heart. The thorn body began to wriggle and shrink.
However, a few seconds later, the trance Salin seemed to wake up suddenly, raised the dagger high, hesitated for a moment, and then chopped on the spike without hesitation.
The next moment, a huge body emerged from the center of the lake, filling the entire black and white vision.
Bang.
Lynch, dressed in women's clothing, took two steps back, covered his forehead and frowned slightly, his face became serious.
You all want to act, I won't play with you.
"There is something in the lake." Lynch's voice was calm with a hint of dissatisfaction, "It's Graki."
Hiss~~
Several people took two steps back at the same time, as if they were all shocked. Carl Jones's face changed drastically, and he whispered: "It does look like the marks left by Graki's thorns, but how could it be? How could he die if he was attacked by Graki?"
"No, if the flesh thorns are cut off before being transformed into a servant, the transformation will be interrupted and he will die directly."
The gentle Rooney also showed a nervous expression, but he said it as if he had seen it with his own eyes.
"How could Graki appear here? Jenna, Carl, Howard, didn't you mention this?"
Bearded Jack Adams' face flushed and he shouted:
"Damn it, they never told me to face this mysterious creature."
"Never said that."
For a moment, the lake was in chaos. Lynch couldn't tell which of their words were true and which were acting. He just felt confused in his mind, but at this moment, Judy, who had been following him with a book in her arms, suddenly said lightly: "Fog."
"Huh? Are you awake?" Several people were surprised, especially Jack, who subconsciously stopped performing.
"The fog is floating from the center of the lake."
"Damn it, it's true." Jack took two steps back and looked. "Damn it, I suspect that the disappearance of the six workers and the death of Salin are the sacrifices to open the door, so the appearance of Graki and the fog also came out. The door should be in the lake."
Rooney immediately retorted: "No, how to explain the rock wall on the other side? The six died in front of the rock wall yesterday."
Yes, the rock wall, let's go and see it first, so we don't have to go down to the lake to face Graki.
Awakened by a word, the six people immediately left the lakeside and rushed to the previous rock wall.
Not long after, the six people passed through the woods, and the rock wall stretched in front of them.
The rock wall was still the same rock wall as yesterday, but the smooth rock wall had spread to both sides, revealing a huge cave behind it. Thick fog came out of the cave in large groups, making the vision more and more hazy.
Well, the three wastes of Britain and some small characters without a face, I kicked them out of the evil god team.
