Start Cthulhu with priest

"Can someone tell me what happened?"

"What are those beams of light! What is the security department doing?"

"..."

At the same time, there was an uproar on the Internet in Yuechong City.

Such a big movement woke up even the citizens who were already asleep.

They didn't dare to go out, so they could only hide in their rooms, communicate with others on the Internet, and vent their panic and anxiety.

"A building next to my house was destroyed! So many people died!"

"terrible……"

"Murder, the Security Department is murdering!"

Because there are many people accidentally injured by the energy light beam, and there is no preparation in advance, it makes people panic and arouses great dissatisfaction.

"Could it be a secret operation against some cult?"

"Secret ghost, this doesn't even care about our lives!"

"Laughing, family members, no one really thinks that their own life is very important to those above, right?"

"I only have Xianyin in my heart.jpg"

Whether it's on Earth in the past or in Yuechong City today, there are not a few people with eccentricities on the Internet.

Even in this crisis, they still uphold the attitude of entertainment and banter.

Before the disaster really hit the top of the head, no one would think that they would be those poor unlucky ones.

Others were victims of ghoul incidents.

"My wife can't wake up suddenly, what's going on? Wait online, it's very urgent."

"Maybe he was caught in some kind of dream killing method."

At first, the replies were quite normal, but soon the topic was twisted in strange directions.

"Sir, I suggest you change your wife here."

"No picture, no truth."

"Let's get some color charts."

"..."

On the Internet, it is not an exaggeration to say that a group of demons dance wildly.

Of course, many people also questioned the Security Department, asking them to give an explanation.

*****

Yi Shuang just woke up from sleep not long ago.

She changed into a combat uniform and looked heroic, but her expression was ugly, with dark clouds hanging over her pretty face and heart.

Due to the unknown situation outside, she did not leave her bedroom for the time being, but called the person in charge of the energy cannon to ask: "What's going on?"

"Who used such a weapon without my approval?"

The action member who received the call felt chills all over his body. He knew that if such a big incident happened, no matter how to remedy it, he would have to bear great responsibility afterwards.

He tremblingly replied: "I, we don't know either."

"Someone else took control of them without our knowledge."

"Moreover, all the people we sent out have lost contact."

"Don't panic."

Yi Shuang frowned deeply, and stabilized the other party's emotions: "Such a big action will definitely leave traces."

"Go and find out who unlocked the power supply permission."

The energy cannon is powerful, but in order to prevent it from being stolen, the developers set many restrictions when manufacturing it.

The most important one is the energy supply of the energy cannon.

At least a minister or higher position is required to have such authority.

'But, who is it? '

Even though she didn't want to doubt those old buddies who fought side by side, but right now...

'And why, they didn't take the initiative to contact me? '

A bad premonition arose in Yi Shuang's heart, and he called Xia Bingxin's number first, but got no response at all.

Then, there were Wen Tieniu, Zhao Duan, Miyoko Hayashima...these were B-level transcendents she knew well.

But without exception, on the other end of the phone, there is only a busy tone that seems to ring at the end of time.

Every time she made a phone call, the female minister's heart sank a little.

If she guessed correctly, the targets of the beam of light were these B-level transcendents.

Taking them as hunting targets is likely to be only the first step of chaos!

At this time, the call from the member of the operation just now came in.

"Minister Yi, I checked, I found it!"

The other party's tone was still full of surprise and disbelief: "It's...it's love..."

It's just that he just uttered a syllable, and there was a "chi" sound on the phone, like the sound of the trachea being cut.

"Crunch... crunch..."

And after that, there was a creepy chewing sound.

*****

dream world.

In the huge underground cavity.

The ghoul priest raised his head, with surprise on his ugly face: "The power hasn't returned yet?"

"Could it be... died at the hands of that human?"

It sneered subconsciously: "Oh, how is that possible?"

"That's strength!"

The ghoul next to him also said: "Maybe he ate up that man, so he didn't dare to come back?"

The intelligence level of the ghouls near this altar is almost the same as that of ordinary humans. Most of them are the offspring of ghouls and humans.

Its birth method is equivalent to an evil and bloody ritual.

Using their mother body as the price of the ceremony, in exchange for higher intelligence and stronger physique.

So, be able to communicate normally like people, not just beasts dominated by desires.

Arman shook his head: "Although Li is greedy, he should not disobey my orders."

"You...help me take a look."

It was driving the ghouls around it to do things, and the words suddenly stopped.

Because, Arman felt—the earth was trembling!

The rocks are shaking, the gravel is shaking, the air is shaking... even their bodies are shaking!

In other words, everything in this dream was trembling abnormally.

This kind of tremor is not like just now, it is just a kind of vibration in the material, which is transmitted by waves, but a deeper and more original change.

"Tremor" is just a form of expression.

Its essence... is that their structures are becoming brittle, becoming unstable, and losing some mysterious substance that supports their existence.

Yarman's face suddenly changed, his facial features were twisted together, and he was terrifying: "Who dares to draw the power of dreams?!"

It directly forgot about Li and the blood eater.

There is no comparison in importance between these two things.

An Le's demolition action seemed exaggerated and made a lot of noise, but in Yarman's view, it was not serious. It didn't matter how many low-level ghouls died, and the damage from above didn't hurt too much, as long as the underground city If the main body is still intact, then it doesn't matter.

But now, what the other party did was to steal the power of the entire dream!

When all the power is stolen, this dream that has existed for a long time will completely disappear and be destroyed.

For example, the former is like digging some soil with a shovel in the garden and pulling up two or three plants of grass, while the latter is directly driving an excavator over to demolish the house!

How could Yarman not be shocked and angry?

He even felt a trace of panic from the bottom of his heart.

"We must... stop that kind of thing!"

Relying on his control over many ghouls, it didn't take long for Arman to find a source of power.

He was surprised to find that this actually came from the body of a ghoul!

Arman was unfamiliar with its breath.

Obviously, this is a "new ghost" who has just arrived in the dungeon, and still retains a large amount of human breath, and has not been assimilated by the strong smell of ghouls in the dungeon in the dream. A kind of "new ghost" also has the value of becoming food.

However, at this time, whether it was Arman or the ghouls gathered nearby, they all stared at it with astonishment, and did not dare to approach it.

In this dark underground space, there are low buildings standing like tombstones.

The messy flesh and blood is expanding.

At first, its original ghoul shape could still be seen, but soon, as the flesh and blood slid down like melted ice cream, all that was left was a scarlet, sticky blanket of meat.

The meat blanket is actively and excitedly growing, and some things like arms, mouths, eyeballs, and teeth are twisted on it, and there are no rules that humans should have.

The eyeballs are full of fingers, and the fingers are covered with neat teeth, and fresh tender meat is constantly growing on the teeth.

Perhaps, it is no longer appropriate to call it a "ghoul".

Such a meat blanket, just looking at it with your eyes, makes you feel weird and disgusting, as if dirty bacteria have penetrated into your brain with the help of your eyes.

Even if the ghouls themselves are not human beings, but a kind of frantic monster, they can't help but feel a little bit of disgust and fear in front of this scene.

'This, this...what the hell is it? '

The ghouls around Arman thought to himself.

But there are also a few ghouls who, after the initial surprise, are gradually controlled by the desire in their hearts.

"Meat, this is meat!"

"Eat! I want to eat..."

In their eyes, no matter how weird and disgusting this kind of thing is, it is still meat.

There is no essential difference from the cold and rotten meat they once ate.

Since it is meat, it can be eaten!

The minds of lesser ghouls simply don't think much more than they follow their savage instincts.

Arman saw their actions, but did not stop them, and it also wanted to use this to test these flesh and blood.

The ghoul crawled on all fours, approaching the meat blanket cautiously.

However, until they come to the meat blanket.

Those distorted flesh and blood didn't respond at all, they just expanded and grew on their own, like an unconscious flesh and blood plant.

Seeing this, the ghoul finally became bolder, and its already incessant salivation became more and more flooded. It lowered its head, and directly began to gnaw and bite, swallowing those weird pieces of meat into its stomach.

But at this moment, Rou Blanket didn't show any attitude of resistance or attack, not even a moment of resistance.

It's like a docile, numb lamb that doesn't move even when the butcher's knife is swiped to its face.

Arman looked at this scene with a strange mood.

'Could it be... my intuition is wrong? '

'They're not dangerous at all, just ugly food? '

While being puzzled, Yarman felt ironic and amused.

‘I was actually scared by the food just now? '

As a result, more ghouls joined the dining team, enjoying the long-lost, fresh flesh and blood.

They even feel that this kind of flesh and blood is more delicious than ordinary corpses, and it's inexhaustible.

The ghouls were surprised to find that the speed at which they ate was not even as fast as the regeneration of flesh and blood.

"so perfect……"

"This is simply a gift given to us by the god of the mortuary!"

They roared and bit with excitement, grateful for the gifts from the gods they believed in.

Flesh and flesh is the ultimate pursuit of ghouls, which stems from their metamorphosed rotten souls.

And this meat blanket undoubtedly fulfilled everything they dreamed of—a corpse that could never be eaten up.

Seeing the carnival gesture of his companions, Yarman began to secrete saliva, and a sense of hunger rose in his stomach.

He also wanted to have a bite.

But at this moment, Yarman suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Arman looked to the side, except for him, only a few ghouls did not join this carnival-like feast.

As far as the eye could see, there were ghouls eating.

And on their faces, there was a kind of intense excitement and frenzy, far more than usual, as if they had taken some kind of addictive drug.

Even though it is true that ghouls are preoccupied with inner impulses when eating, they... shouldn't be so crazy!

It's as if... the flesh and blood they ate controlled their bodies.

Once this feast starts, it will never stop.

"ah!!!"

The first thing to sound was the scream of a ghoul.

Its arm was torn off by the companion beside it, and it was held in his hand like eating lamb chops, biting greedily.

This aroused the viciousness of the ghoul. It bit the opponent's throat without hesitation, tore the face with its claws, and pulled out its eyes.

When the first ghoul died at the hands of its kind, it was unexpected that things had gone beyond Yarman's control.

Melee broke out.

The ghouls who were still enjoying a delicious meal together started fighting in a blink of an eye, hurting and gnawing at each other.

Screams, roars, and squirming flesh and blood... filled Arman's ears.

At this moment, it suddenly remembered that it came to destroy the node that absorbed the power of the dream.

But everything, it's too late.

Suddenly, a ghoul with a swollen belly stood still.

It raised its head blankly, showing pain on its face, clutching its abdomen, like a pregnant woman about to give birth.

Immediately afterwards——

boom!

Its body began to burst from the abdomen.

Bright red, foul-smelling undigested flesh and blood splashed out, an arm stretched out from the eye socket of the ghoul, with strange smiles on it, sharp teeth biting the throat from the inside, its skin Torn apart by more grotesque organs.

The magnificent flower of flesh and blood is blooming.

One by one, one by one.

"Stop! Stop!"

Yarman roared with all his strength, trying to use his control over the same kind to stop this disaster.

But its voice was quickly drowned out by the brutal roar.

Suddenly, Yarman felt a slippery sensation around his feet.

Several granulation, quietly wrapped around his legs.

It turned out that before he knew it, the whole weird meat blanket had expanded to his feet.

And it is the ghouls who eat it that feed it to grow so fast.

The relationship between food and predators has long been reversed.

An indescribable chill enveloped Yarman's heart, and he turned his head to look.

Those of the same kind who once worshiped and revered it stopped their movements in unison, stared at him greedily, and... approached step by step.

"You, how dare you..."

Before Yarman could finish his words, the ghouls rushed towards him like a tide.

A strange face on the meat blanket smiled brighter and brighter.

*****

Let time quietly go back to the tremor in the dream world before it happened.

"Unexpectedly..."

An Le's consciousness returned from the church.

From Ren Yekou, he roughly understood what happened in Yueyong City at this time.

Moreover, Ren Ye also handed over his blood sacred artifact fragments to An Le.

Ren Ye believes that those who tracked him locked his position with fragments.

In other words, these fragments are the reason why those people are chasing after them.

——Otherwise, Ren Ye really couldn't imagine how he could have such a great ability to attract the hatred of three B-level extraordinary people.

There is another reason, Ren Ye's intuition feels that these fragments may lead to greater disasters.

With this mentality in mind, he simply dedicated them to the hands of the black-robed priest, that is, An Le.

Ren Ye's next experience will not be mentioned for the time being.

"Everyone, please listen to me..."

An Le shared the information he knew with everyone.

In fact, it was mainly to tell Yu the psychic that this woman was very mysterious, and An Le couldn't see through it, so maybe she could deduce something from it.

Kota's ears tightened: "What? Is there such a thing?"

"Someone bombarded the main city with energy cannons, hunting and killing B-level transcendents, this... this..."

Xia Bingxin was too surprised to speak.

Wu Yong: "Have you eaten yet?"

"..."

Everyone was surprised, but out of trust in An Le, no one doubted the source and authenticity of his information.

But the news itself is too shocking. Obviously, Yuechong City is going to be in chaos!

But they were trapped in this dream, unable to escape for a short time.

The psychic medium had done divination a long time ago, so he wasn't surprised. He just silently glanced at An Le and wondered in his heart, how did he know the real information?

By this time, they had sealed a total of six fragments, and the speed was actually not too slow.

But the strong sense of urgency is like a mountain, pressing down on their hearts, making them breathless.

Hum——

Immediately afterwards, everyone felt that weird tremor.

"This is again?"

"I feel dizzy and uncomfortable..."

"What a weird vibration."

The team members had mixed reactions.

Asuka Fumino and Xia Bingxin, who were weaker transcendents, felt unwell and almost fainted.

An Le frowned slightly: "This shock, it seems that it's not just..."

He could see that this tremor was unusual, as if... there was something wrong with the dream itself.

The psychic, who has always been calm, couldn't keep calm. She said in surprise: "I understand! I finally understand!"

But there was a deep sense of despair in her tone.

Like a person standing by the sea, seeing a raging tsunami suddenly hit, seeing it, but can't do anything.

"So that's how it is."

Facing the suspicious eyes of An Le and the others, the psychic didn't hold back, and directly expressed her speculation.

"This dream is just a 'container'."

"The function of these fragments is not only to draw the dream to the city of Yuesong City, but also a 'straw' to extract the power of the dream."

"If I'm not mistaken..."

The psychic took a deep breath, and then spit out a terrifying speculation.

"The goal of the people behind the scenes is the city wall of Yue Chung City!"
