The goddesses of fate stand on a barren planet.
There used to be a prosperous city and advanced civilization here. When the wrath of the gods burned, people ushered in an apocalyptic disaster. The flames that could not be extinguished burned for ten days and ten nights. From the crowded spaceship port to the No corner of the inaccessible mountain forest was spared, and tens of millions of residents were burned to ashes.
Hundreds of years later, there are only ruins left on this planet, collapsed high-rise buildings can be vaguely seen in places where cities used to be, and the wreckage of starships sank one after another in the depths of the dry seabed , which symbolizes that life and civilization once existed here.
"Don't you want to know what's going on here?"
The Fates asked in a strange tone, and they might have been speaking in three voices, but it sounded like the same voice.
There are countless bright stars in the sky, and this starry night is so bright that it is almost artificial, as if someone used a photo editing tool to gather thousands of stars into the same night sky, and the dim sky became crowded and narrow.
The stars almost collided, and the light became sharp and cold, like countless cold eyes watching them.
In this bright but not warm starlight, the girl's figure gradually emerged.
For a moment, the goddesses of fate even felt that the stars in the sky were staring at this girl, and their eyes moved with her steps——
"I don't want to," Arya thought for a while, usually she is not so rude, but now she is too lazy to go around in circles, "Odin said that you have a way to revive Freya, so I am here, unless I have to listen to it Only tell me the reason why you asked me to meet here, otherwise, I'm not interested in listening to nonsense anymore."
The goddesses of fate looked at each other, their cloaks fluttering in the night wind, their voices were ethereal like singing from afar, "You are such an incomprehensible person."
"...Because I didn't kill Odin? Or didn't let the disaster swallow Asgard?" Arya shook her head, "Odin is dead."
She watched the figure of the god king split into countless broken gold threads, and gradually disappeared into the palace like smoke blown away by the wind. This scene really came unprepared.
"The apple trees in the Wannian Garden will wither, and the legendary immortal gods will also fall, because there is no eternity in this world."
"He has already reached the end of his destiny."
"Why do you want to resurrect Cupid?"
This time the three goddesses of fate said three completely different words, and they spoke at the same time. The strange thing is that they didn't sound very confusing, but very clear.
That's a real time saver.
Arya replied without thinking: "Because she died because of me. The human trafficker pirate stole me and sold it to another planet. She found me on that planet and fought to the death to get me back—— "
"it's here."
"Eros died here, and before she died, 6000 million people lost their lives."
"She destroyed all life on this planet, except for the spaceship that transported you away."
Arya looked at them unknowingly, "So? Wouldn't it be okay if they gave me to her earlier?"
"They used you to absorb all the plagues on this planet."
"The spaceship sent you to the planet where their capital is, and they wanted to continue using you for research—"
"But the god of love has come, she has bewitched the ruler here, and wants to find you in the simplest way."
"The object she chooses doesn't know anything about you."
"Freya is angry—"
"Destroying planets and ethnic cleansing is one of the things she is best at. Even if she is seriously injured, it is very easy to deal with these races that have no magic and can only rely on technology—"
Arya turned and left.
Goddesses of Destiny: "..."
"--and many more."
"You don't have a way to revive her. I said I didn't come to listen to nonsense," Arya stopped, but didn't look back, as if she would leave at any time. "If it wasn't too painful to merge with the disaster, I would have Just reshape her body."
The goddesses were speechless, "Are you not interested in these pasts?"
"I wonder if I can ask her myself, you guys are just wasting my time."
"...Okay, come with us, Your Highness."
Arya followed smoothly. They walked through a messy and extremely silent city. A hollow wind blew from the depths of the ruins. The metal was burnt to extremely black, and the walls of the collapsed buildings were peeled off. The tracks were broken, and many of the wing cars were overturned, leaving only tattered and completely faded frames.
They continued to move deep into the city, and stopped in an empty square. The fountain was completely dried up, and the ground was covered with scorched black marks from the fire. The surrounding commercial streets were destroyed beyond recognition, and dust was still flying in the air. .
"I don't know what you guys think, but—"
The voice stopped abruptly.
Arya lowered her head in disbelief, and the bright magic patterns spread from the pitch-black ground. These lines filled with dazzling luster quickly extended outwards, and after extending a long enough distance, they turned and began to intersect and intersect. Outlined an extremely complete magic circle imprint at the fastest speed.
The connected heptagons and the five-pointed star containing spells, and many complicated spells that seem familiar.
The only difference is that the magic circle made by the Tenjin believers in the summoning ceremony in New York was no more than two meters in diameter, which fits the size of the summoning circle known to people, but now this——
Arya was firmly nailed to the center of the magic circle at this time, "Is it my illusion or...you really drew an unblocking magic circle about the size of this square? What do you want to summon? "
The goddesses of fate looked at her blankly, and they all fell silent for two seconds.
"Haven't you guessed it, Your Highness?"
"For thousands of years, we have been looking for a suitable body for our master, so that it can escape the seal of the ancient gods and return to our world from the gap outside the universe—"
"As for you, Your Highness, your body is naturally capable of merging with disasters, and the existence that people call disasters is a part of the master. You are the most perfect bearer in this universe."
Arya watched them for a moment in disbelief, perhaps because she rarely showed the look of shock that pleased the Fates.
The ancient gods smiled one after another, their beautiful faces changed quietly under the cloak, the delicate skin peeled off, revealing the thick white bones, the dark flames rose from the empty eye sockets, and the black disaster flowed from the pale bones, "If it weren't for the master's power, we would have died like Odin."
"Wait," Arya watched as the luster gradually devoured her body, and it had spread to her knees. Obviously, there was no time to speak. "On Earth...you hired a killer to find me?"
"Yes, Your Highness, your body contains a lot of power. It's just that the people in the courtyard made you weak. If you don't stimulate your potential, your body can't fully carry such a great existence."
Arya: "..."
For a moment, they felt that the girl seemed to be trying to hold back her smile——
Forget it, this person is quite strange, anyway, she will die soon.
The girl coughed lightly, making her expression more serious, "What the hell is the Tenjin Sect?"
"Although those people in the atrium are weak, they can devoutly sacrifice their lives for their faith."
"Every sacrifice they make will awaken the master—"
"Or part of it, until now, the number of times should be enough, otherwise we would not be able to wake it up with one call."
"Okay," Arya nodded speechlessly, "Besides, you can just summon me directly, why do you trap me here?"
"...You are so humorous, Your Highness, although compared to your parents, your ability is not worth mentioning—"
"You are also at the level of the main god. We tried to kill your soul many times, but failed."
"According to our plan, your death on Earth should have left only a shell, but your consciousness still exists. We can only make a bad move. As a parting gift, you will fall into an eternal wonderful dream."
The voices of the skeletons under the cloak are still very pleasant, as gentle as singing a song waiting for a baby to fall asleep. They said in unison: "You will like it."
Arya sighed, and raised her hand, "Okay, let me see—"
Boundless darkness suddenly engulfed his vision.
Earth.
Delaware.
This is a quiet small town on the east coast. The streets paved with cobblestones are still covered with deep and shallow snow, and the fresh air is fresh after the snow. There are few pedestrians in the town in the morning, and the shops are not open.
Stephen Strange came here from Metropolis following the guidance of magic.
People of the Celestial Sect often act low-key, and perform rituals in and out of the city where the Justice League is most active. The number of times they have been discovered is very small. If you think about it carefully, they are really a very strange cult.
Seriously, their gods are weird too, and maybe that's why.
Not long ago, Wonder Woman took the initiative to find the guardian of the temple, and they had a short conversation. Diana mentioned that she once used the lasso of truth to ask some information from a believer.
"The believer said that their master is not a creature of this universe. It is eternal, even beyond eternity. Its lifespan is longer than the universe. Some other gods sealed it and imprisoned it in the cracked space outside the universe. In there, there was a battle between them, before the birth of the universe, since then, it cannot move freely, it can only be summoned by believers, but it never answers the prayers of believers, it is very—"
"arrogant?"
"No." The princess of Paradise Island didn't know how to describe this existence. The demigod frowned and pondered for a while, then briefly concluded: "I can't understand."
"...Since it is not a creature of this universe at all, this is also normal."
"It seemed different," Diana recalled her conversation with the believer. "Those Celestial believers were sure that the creature could communicate with them, but it ignored the prayers of its own believers, as if it hated them to do so." .”
"An evil god who ignores believers and is misanthropic? Then how do they get power from their master?"
"Death," Diana answered in a low voice, "what they ask is to be given death by their master, in whatever form, and next to suicide, to give their own lives, and if the time is right, they will be part of the disaster."
"..."
Doctor Strange has seen many devils and gods with strange paintings. Sometimes it is difficult to distinguish between good and evil. After all, they are just themselves, and all attributes are labels added by humans. However, this strange extra-universe creature is indeed——
Confused.
"How would the people of the Tenjin Sect know that there is such an existence? They are all human beings—even those with superpowers, I don't think they can explore the space where that creature exists."
"They were guided. In the dream, he said that there were three witches who guided them to believe in this evil god."
Stephen walked along the snow-falling street. After walking for a while, the door of the villa in front opened, and a young girl came out yawning, stretched herself on the steps, and rolled her eyes when she saw him. Liang, "Hey, good morning."
There are at most three-digit residents in such a small town. Regardless of whether the neighbors have a good or bad relationship, let alone remember each other's faces, those relatives who only come a few times a year are almost familiar with each other. A stranger suddenly entered Small town, this is not a tourist attraction, it is indeed a bit conspicuous.
He also greeted that person kindly, but he didn't continue the conversation, but walked away from the woman's strange eyes, and the latter muttered a few words, "...Maybe it's a friend of that little bastard."
This is an ancient tracking magic with a complicated process and great consumption. Stephen read many classics to complete it. With enough sense of crisis, we must find out about the Tenjin Sect.
Stephen carefully pushed open the fence gate, and the fine falling snow on the wooden board felt cold to the touch. There was no lock here, and the small garden was covered with snow everywhere. Those plants were not particularly neatly trimmed. It seemed that at least a few There is no one to take care of the moon, but overall it is not messy, at least someone must have taken care of it not long ago.
The mage walked towards the gate along the cobblestone path in the garden. His magic came to an end here. There are two possibilities. One is that the target being tracked has completely left the earth, and the other is——
He walked into the cold hall. Between the TV cabinet and the coffee table, a warm and thick cashmere carpet was thrown aside. On the wooden floor, a set of extremely complicated magic pattern circles were drawn with dried blood. Lying next to him, his face was bloodless, and it was obvious that he had turned into a corpse.
These believers are dead.
Stephen's mood suddenly turned bad. They may have committed suicide. The corpses looked peaceful, and there was even a smile on their faces, as if their wish had been fulfilled.
However, why did they choose such a place to complete the ceremony?
This little-known small town is in line with the style of the Tenjin Cult. However, most of the time they choose the woods or deep mountains in the wilderness, and if they are in the city, they will also be empty and abandoned buildings.
After all, ordinary people will face this embarrassing problem in their homes. If the space is a little smaller, it may not even be possible to draw a magic circle, let alone lie in a fixed position.
The family lived in prosperity, as can be seen from the decoration and furniture of the hall, which is covered with bas-relief wallpaper, the mantelpiece is fine pine wood, velvet curtains and gilt pull hooks, and the dial of the wall clock is probably solid gold. The crystal glass is inlaid with gold and silver, and the ancient handmade coffee machines on the table are extremely expensive.
The mage's eyes fell on the group photo hanging on the wall. It was a family of five. A young couple was holding their immature daughter. Next to them was an old couple. They looked at their little granddaughter with relief. Filled with a happy smile.
Stephen didn't know them, but seeing such a picture, his expression couldn't help but soften a little.
Then, he turned his eyes and saw another group photo——
It was the same elderly couple, but they seemed to be much older, and they were no longer surrounded by son and daughter-in-law, or daughter and son-in-law, Stephen was not sure about this, in short, there was a little girl of six or seven years old sitting between them, She is as beautiful as an angel descending from a fairyland, with brilliant and shining golden curly hair, her facial features are flawless, and her pale irises are almost transparent under the light. smile.
This little girl has very distinct Caucasian features, even in terms of skin color and hair color, she does not seem to be related to the old couple by blood.
These two group photos seemed to reveal a lot of information. Stephen felt that something was wrong for a while, but he was sure that he didn't know any of these people.
In addition, he was a little worried. After all, many ceremonies of the Tenjin Sect require sacrifices, not every time. For example, these people who seem to die from poisoning seem to be believers, unless they kill themselves in the same way first. Captured sacrifices, and then choose to commit suicide, and they usually abuse the sacrifices first, whether it is wounded or disabled, these corpses do not have similar characteristics——
In short, Stephen was more worried that they were eyeing a new sacrifice, such as someone in this villa, but after arriving here, it was easy to find that there was no one living here for at least a few months.
The mage sighed, and picked up a thick diary in the center of the magic circle. Many of the papers in it were no longer flat, so there was no need to open them. It was only from the side that at least many pages had been written.
He flicked the pages and then stopped. Judging from the immature handwriting and spelling mistakes, this is completely a child's diary. The page he read was ten years ago, and the tone of voice is probably just a diary. Children aged six or seven.
Judging from the group photo just now, this is probably the diary of the little blonde girl.
Looking through other people's diaries without permission, even parents would not do this kind of invasion of privacy, but there is no reason why the Tenjin believers put this thing at the core of the array, unless there is something hidden in the diary Mystical magic or unknown energy.
Next, Stephen tried all means to test the diary, but did not get any feedback.
This is really an ordinary diary, without any evil energy, without any strange soul sealed, he even carefully wrote a word on the blank page at the back, and it didn't happen like a scene in a movie, For example, the diary swallowed the text and started talking to him——
A red-gold halo appeared in the hall, and the halo rapidly spun out clusters of brilliant sparks. Another mage walked out of the portal, and saw the temple guardian carefully staring at the diary, holding a ballpoint pen tightly in his hand. Focus on the words you just wrote.
king:"……"
Wang almost guessed what happened, and looked at him blankly: "Did you watch too much Harry Potter?"
Stephen straightened up, "I don't want to read a little girl's diary."
"Oh," Wang had no objection to his approach. In fact, even if he read it, it might just be a waste of time. He took two steps in the hall, and suddenly found a diary on the coffee table, but this notebook was a diary. It's open, and there are a few pages standing upright in the air, "Hey, look at this."
Stephen picked up the diary and flipped through it for a while, and didn't read it seriously, but judging from the notes, it was definitely not written by a child anymore, and judging from the time, the possibility that it was written by the same person as the previous diary can also be ruled out , "Is this Chinese?"
Wang glanced at the side, "... yes."
Stephen was silent for a second, and this time he read it boldly. Anyway, he didn't know a word, just wanted to see if there was any unusual information, such as magic circle patterns or spell characters, etc. If these things appeared, they would definitely very conspicuous, and—
and many more.
The mage clenched the cover of the diary tightly, "King!"
Another mage came over, "...Damn it, now I have to see what's written on the front."
Wang took the diary and started reading from the beginning of this article, "On January 2002, 1, it was sunny——"
"...I know Arabic numerals."
Wang ignored him and continued reading. He just needed to translate between Chinese and English during the process, so he spoke slowly, "We haven't been so busy for a long time, and I almost forgot this feeling. Now I finally took the time to record the events of that day. experience."
"Last Saturday's night seemed to fall a bit earlier, we saw a black cloud in the sky when we were tidying the garden, it seemed to fly, and it seemed to glide among the brilliant clouds, it covered the sunset In the setting sun, we can only vaguely see some dark red dusk. It feels like something terrible is about to happen, but now I don’t think so, if the gods exist, we have already received their gifts .”
"While I was watching TV, I heard Martin calling me in the garden, I went out, and then we heard a lot of horrible voices, they were whispering in the dark, I told Martin not to be nervous, maybe it was just The sound of the night wind blowing through the rose bushes."
The two templar mages looked at each other in silence.
Wang bowed his head and continued to read: "The courtyard became more and more silent, and the vines between the fences began to tremble, and we heard those creepy voices speaking an unknown language, sometimes sharp and sometimes low, and seemed like thousands of voices. The stars are singing loudly, their chorus is chaotic and disorderly, some are like howling in pain, and some are like sex addicted to endless joy, they are cursing and shouting to themselves, playing a chaotic and crazy chorus."
Doctor Strange's complexion is getting worse and worse. Hearing this, even if he doesn't know what the end of this incident is, he still knows that this family may be ordinary people, but they have already gone through experiences that ordinary people can't imagine, or in other words, they really It's too lucky, after all, judging from the thickness of the diary, the person who wrote the diary was not killed in this accident.
"Martin and I hugged each other tightly. Neither of us is a believer. Who can we pray to at this moment? Maybe we are afraid, but we have lost our son and daughter-in-law, and our granddaughter who is still under age. These tragedies The shadow of death hangs over our heads for a long time, two dying old people who only have each other left, how much fear can they have in the face of death and the devil?"
"We heard the voices approaching, they passed through the garden path, amidst the whispers of the devil and the curse of the stars, distorted black projections emerged on the bluestone road, they stretched around unscrupulously, cruising through the lush flowers and The flourishing emerald green vines flowed between the gaps in the walls and bricks, and climbed up the brick-red roofs of the street. These high and low voices gradually lost their original madness and strength. The frenzied emotions became excited, so the singing gradually became neat and unified, like the call from the depths of the soul of tens of billions of believers."
Wang stopped.
The eyes of the two fell on that paragraph of letters that was extremely abrupt compared to Chinese. Stephen just saw this paragraph by accident.
—La!N'ghftwgah'nsyha'h!Utftaghuwk'hmrn'ghftwgah'nsyha'h!La!La!
—La!N'ghftwgah'nsyha'h!Utftaghuwk'hmrn'ghftwgah'nsyha'h!La!La!
—La!N'ghftwgah'nsyha'h!Utftaghuwk'hmrn'ghftwgah'nsyha'h!La!La!
Stephen translated it in a low voice, "Listen, exist in eternal darkness, I call you, under this skin, become eternal darkness."
Wang read out the diary under these two paragraphs, "Those voices are repeated over and over again, I swear I have never heard this language, it is not like the sound that humans can make, I don't know why I I can write them, but there must be an incredible magic in them, and they lead us along, through the garden paths, as we hold each other's hands amid the rustling of leaves and vines. Hand, I came to the backyard by a strange coincidence, and it was already night, the sky was pitch black, and the moon and stars could not be seen, and then, I saw the gift that God gave us—"
The mage paused, "It's a baby. She seems to have been dumped directly in our backyard. I don't know who is so wicked. She doesn't even have a piece of clothing on her body! There are also many scars and dense needles. Kong, this is absolutely abuse and torture, I can't believe someone can do something like that to a child, if I were to meet these baby abusers, I would definitely choose to shoot them, and Martin Already angrily expressed the same thoughts as me."
So, on that cold and dark winter night more than ten years ago, the old man lovingly hugged the naked baby. She had brilliant curly blond hair and her skin was as white as snow in the deep forest.
The little girl looked at them quietly, with two lines of dark tears falling silently on her face.
The author has something to say: I actually mentioned it earlier, maybe some little angels don’t remember, many years after Alia was stolen, the God of Light and the God of Cupid got married separately, emmmmm, so there is no such thing as getting married and being with yourself Brother/sister is cheating on the issue. In the myth, brother and sister do have an affair and are above board, but I understand that they love each other more like family members, so there is no need to worry about why they like each other and marry someone else. Because the person to marry is true love, a myth...
In this chapter, I think it’s okay to look confused, and the next chapter will definitely answer questions (.
There used to be a prosperous city and advanced civilization here. When the wrath of the gods burned, people ushered in an apocalyptic disaster. The flames that could not be extinguished burned for ten days and ten nights. From the crowded spaceship port to the No corner of the inaccessible mountain forest was spared, and tens of millions of residents were burned to ashes.
Hundreds of years later, there are only ruins left on this planet, collapsed high-rise buildings can be vaguely seen in places where cities used to be, and the wreckage of starships sank one after another in the depths of the dry seabed , which symbolizes that life and civilization once existed here.

The goddesses of fate looked at each other, their cloaks fluttering in the night wind, their voices were ethereal like singing from afar, "You are such an incomprehensible person."
"...Because I didn't kill Odin? Or didn't let the disaster swallow Asgard?" Arya shook her head, "Odin is dead."
She watched the figure of the god king split into countless broken gold threads, and gradually disappeared into the palace like smoke blown away by the wind. This scene really came unprepared.
"The apple trees in the Wannian Garden will wither, and the legendary immortal gods will also fall, because there is no eternity in this world."
"He has already reached the end of his destiny."

They continued to move deep into the city, and stopped in an empty square. The fountain was completely dried up, and the ground was covered with scorched black marks from the fire. The surrounding commercial streets were destroyed beyond recognition, and dust was still flying in the air. .

"Death," Diana answered in a low voice, "what they ask is to be given death by their master, in whatever form, and next to suicide, to give their own lives, and if the time is right, they will be part of the disaster."
"..."
Doctor Strange has seen many devils and gods with strange paintings. Sometimes it is difficult to distinguish between good and evil. After all, they are just themselves, and all attributes are labels added by humans. However, this strange extra-universe creature is indeed——
Confused.
"How would the people of the Tenjin Sect know that there is such an existence? They are all human beings—even those with superpowers, I don't think they can explore the space where that creature exists."
"They were guided. In the dream, he said that there were three witches who guided them to believe in this evil god."
Stephen walked along the snow-falling street. After walking for a while, the door of the villa in front opened, and a young girl came out yawning, stretched herself on the steps, and rolled her eyes when she saw him. Liang, "Hey, good morning."
There are at most three-digit residents in such a small town. Regardless of whether the neighbors have a good or bad relationship, let alone remember each other's faces, those relatives who only come a few times a year are almost familiar with each other. A stranger suddenly entered Small town, this is not a tourist attraction, it is indeed a bit conspicuous.
He also greeted that person kindly, but he didn't continue the conversation, but walked away from the woman's strange eyes, and the latter muttered a few words, "...Maybe it's a friend of that little bastard."
This is an ancient tracking magic with a complicated process and great consumption. Stephen read many classics to complete it. With enough sense of crisis, we must find out about the Tenjin Sect.
Stephen carefully pushed open the fence gate, and the fine falling snow on the wooden board felt cold to the touch. There was no lock here, and the small garden was covered with snow everywhere. Those plants were not particularly neatly trimmed. It seemed that at least a few There is no one to take care of the moon, but overall it is not messy, at least someone must have taken care of it not long ago.
The mage walked towards the gate along the cobblestone path in the garden. His magic came to an end here. There are two possibilities. One is that the target being tracked has completely left the earth, and the other is——
He walked into the cold hall. Between the TV cabinet and the coffee table, a warm and thick cashmere carpet was thrown aside. On the wooden floor, a set of extremely complicated magic pattern circles were drawn with dried blood. Lying next to him, his face was bloodless, and it was obvious that he had turned into a corpse.
These believers are dead.
Stephen's mood suddenly turned bad. They may have committed suicide. The corpses looked peaceful, and there was even a smile on their faces, as if their wish had been fulfilled.
However, why did they choose such a place to complete the ceremony?
This little-known small town is in line with the style of the Tenjin Cult. However, most of the time they choose the woods or deep mountains in the wilderness, and if they are in the city, they will also be empty and abandoned buildings.
After all, ordinary people will face this embarrassing problem in their homes. If the space is a little smaller, it may not even be possible to draw a magic circle, let alone lie in a fixed position.
The family lived in prosperity, as can be seen from the decoration and furniture of the hall, which is covered with bas-relief wallpaper, the mantelpiece is fine pine wood, velvet curtains and gilt pull hooks, and the dial of the wall clock is probably solid gold. The crystal glass is inlaid with gold and silver, and the ancient handmade coffee machines on the table are extremely expensive.
The mage's eyes fell on the group photo hanging on the wall. It was a family of five. A young couple was holding their immature daughter. Next to them was an old couple. They looked at their little granddaughter with relief. Filled with a happy smile.
Stephen didn't know them, but seeing such a picture, his expression couldn't help but soften a little.
Then, he turned his eyes and saw another group photo——
It was the same elderly couple, but they seemed to be much older, and they were no longer surrounded by son and daughter-in-law, or daughter and son-in-law, Stephen was not sure about this, in short, there was a little girl of six or seven years old sitting between them, She is as beautiful as an angel descending from a fairyland, with brilliant and shining golden curly hair, her facial features are flawless, and her pale irises are almost transparent under the light. smile.
This little girl has very distinct Caucasian features, even in terms of skin color and hair color, she does not seem to be related to the old couple by blood.
These two group photos seemed to reveal a lot of information. Stephen felt that something was wrong for a while, but he was sure that he didn't know any of these people.
In addition, he was a little worried. After all, many ceremonies of the Tenjin Sect require sacrifices, not every time. For example, these people who seem to die from poisoning seem to be believers, unless they kill themselves in the same way first. Captured sacrifices, and then choose to commit suicide, and they usually abuse the sacrifices first, whether it is wounded or disabled, these corpses do not have similar characteristics——
In short, Stephen was more worried that they were eyeing a new sacrifice, such as someone in this villa, but after arriving here, it was easy to find that there was no one living here for at least a few months.
The mage sighed, and picked up a thick diary in the center of the magic circle. Many of the papers in it were no longer flat, so there was no need to open them. It was only from the side that at least many pages had been written.
He flicked the pages and then stopped. Judging from the immature handwriting and spelling mistakes, this is completely a child's diary. The page he read was ten years ago, and the tone of voice is probably just a diary. Children aged six or seven.
Judging from the group photo just now, this is probably the diary of the little blonde girl.
Looking through other people's diaries without permission, even parents would not do this kind of invasion of privacy, but there is no reason why the Tenjin believers put this thing at the core of the array, unless there is something hidden in the diary Mystical magic or unknown energy.
Next, Stephen tried all means to test the diary, but did not get any feedback.
This is really an ordinary diary, without any evil energy, without any strange soul sealed, he even carefully wrote a word on the blank page at the back, and it didn't happen like a scene in a movie, For example, the diary swallowed the text and started talking to him——
A red-gold halo appeared in the hall, and the halo rapidly spun out clusters of brilliant sparks. Another mage walked out of the portal, and saw the temple guardian carefully staring at the diary, holding a ballpoint pen tightly in his hand. Focus on the words you just wrote.
king:"……"
Wang almost guessed what happened, and looked at him blankly: "Did you watch too much Harry Potter?"
Stephen straightened up, "I don't want to read a little girl's diary."
"Oh," Wang had no objection to his approach. In fact, even if he read it, it might just be a waste of time. He took two steps in the hall, and suddenly found a diary on the coffee table, but this notebook was a diary. It's open, and there are a few pages standing upright in the air, "Hey, look at this."
Stephen picked up the diary and flipped through it for a while, and didn't read it seriously, but judging from the notes, it was definitely not written by a child anymore, and judging from the time, the possibility that it was written by the same person as the previous diary can also be ruled out , "Is this Chinese?"
Wang glanced at the side, "... yes."
Stephen was silent for a second, and this time he read it boldly. Anyway, he didn't know a word, just wanted to see if there was any unusual information, such as magic circle patterns or spell characters, etc. If these things appeared, they would definitely very conspicuous, and—
and many more.
The mage clenched the cover of the diary tightly, "King!"
Another mage came over, "...Damn it, now I have to see what's written on the front."
Wang took the diary and started reading from the beginning of this article, "On January 2002, 1, it was sunny——"
"...I know Arabic numerals."
Wang ignored him and continued reading. He just needed to translate between Chinese and English during the process, so he spoke slowly, "We haven't been so busy for a long time, and I almost forgot this feeling. Now I finally took the time to record the events of that day. experience."
"Last Saturday's night seemed to fall a bit earlier, we saw a black cloud in the sky when we were tidying the garden, it seemed to fly, and it seemed to glide among the brilliant clouds, it covered the sunset In the setting sun, we can only vaguely see some dark red dusk. It feels like something terrible is about to happen, but now I don’t think so, if the gods exist, we have already received their gifts .”
"While I was watching TV, I heard Martin calling me in the garden, I went out, and then we heard a lot of horrible voices, they were whispering in the dark, I told Martin not to be nervous, maybe it was just The sound of the night wind blowing through the rose bushes."
The two templar mages looked at each other in silence.
Wang bowed his head and continued to read: "The courtyard became more and more silent, and the vines between the fences began to tremble, and we heard those creepy voices speaking an unknown language, sometimes sharp and sometimes low, and seemed like thousands of voices. The stars are singing loudly, their chorus is chaotic and disorderly, some are like howling in pain, and some are like sex addicted to endless joy, they are cursing and shouting to themselves, playing a chaotic and crazy chorus."
Doctor Strange's complexion is getting worse and worse. Hearing this, even if he doesn't know what the end of this incident is, he still knows that this family may be ordinary people, but they have already gone through experiences that ordinary people can't imagine, or in other words, they really It's too lucky, after all, judging from the thickness of the diary, the person who wrote the diary was not killed in this accident.
"Martin and I hugged each other tightly. Neither of us is a believer. Who can we pray to at this moment? Maybe we are afraid, but we have lost our son and daughter-in-law, and our granddaughter who is still under age. These tragedies The shadow of death hangs over our heads for a long time, two dying old people who only have each other left, how much fear can they have in the face of death and the devil?"
"We heard the voices approaching, they passed through the garden path, amidst the whispers of the devil and the curse of the stars, distorted black projections emerged on the bluestone road, they stretched around unscrupulously, cruising through the lush flowers and The flourishing emerald green vines flowed between the gaps in the walls and bricks, and climbed up the brick-red roofs of the street. These high and low voices gradually lost their original madness and strength. The frenzied emotions became excited, so the singing gradually became neat and unified, like the call from the depths of the soul of tens of billions of believers."
Wang stopped.
The eyes of the two fell on that paragraph of letters that was extremely abrupt compared to Chinese. Stephen just saw this paragraph by accident.
—La!N'ghftwgah'nsyha'h!Utftaghuwk'hmrn'ghftwgah'nsyha'h!La!La!
—La!N'ghftwgah'nsyha'h!Utftaghuwk'hmrn'ghftwgah'nsyha'h!La!La!
—La!N'ghftwgah'nsyha'h!Utftaghuwk'hmrn'ghftwgah'nsyha'h!La!La!
Stephen translated it in a low voice, "Listen, exist in eternal darkness, I call you, under this skin, become eternal darkness."
Wang read out the diary under these two paragraphs, "Those voices are repeated over and over again, I swear I have never heard this language, it is not like the sound that humans can make, I don't know why I I can write them, but there must be an incredible magic in them, and they lead us along, through the garden paths, as we hold each other's hands amid the rustling of leaves and vines. Hand, I came to the backyard by a strange coincidence, and it was already night, the sky was pitch black, and the moon and stars could not be seen, and then, I saw the gift that God gave us—"
The mage paused, "It's a baby. She seems to have been dumped directly in our backyard. I don't know who is so wicked. She doesn't even have a piece of clothing on her body! There are also many scars and dense needles. Kong, this is absolutely abuse and torture, I can't believe someone can do something like that to a child, if I were to meet these baby abusers, I would definitely choose to shoot them, and Martin Already angrily expressed the same thoughts as me."
So, on that cold and dark winter night more than ten years ago, the old man lovingly hugged the naked baby. She had brilliant curly blond hair and her skin was as white as snow in the deep forest.
The little girl looked at them quietly, with two lines of dark tears falling silently on her face.
The author has something to say: I actually mentioned it earlier, maybe some little angels don’t remember, many years after Alia was stolen, the God of Light and the God of Cupid got married separately, emmmmm, so there is no such thing as getting married and being with yourself Brother/sister is cheating on the issue. In the myth, brother and sister do have an affair and are above board, but I understand that they love each other more like family members, so there is no need to worry about why they like each other and marry someone else. Because the person to marry is true love, a myth...
In this chapter, I think it’s okay to look confused, and the next chapter will definitely answer questions (.
