The omnipresent worship of gods 5
The temple on the mountain was deserted and lonely. The head of a middle-aged woman rolled to the ground, and three old, middle-aged and young men stood there covered in blood.
"It's all your fault that you didn't think highly of the sacrifice."
"Don't blame us, we just want to survive."
"We have top-quality products here, too."
In the darkness, the blood was as thick and black as ink. The expressions of these people were filled with reverence for the gods and unspeakable madness. The middle-aged woman who had spoken harshly to the young woman before never dreamed that she would become the sacrifice.
The blood spread, and the three of them gathered in the dark night to light the incense that had been prepared long ago.
The three of them prostrated themselves on the ground and worshipped the Buddha statue. It would have seemed a bit strange if there weren't corpses of people who were brutally murdered next to them.
At this time, Yan Ke drove away from the temple and did not notice anything unusual about the woman sitting next to him.
Her eyes suddenly became pupilless, and she reached out to snatch the steering wheel from Yan Ke's hands.
Fortunately, Yan Ke was driving slowly, so he braked immediately and raised his hand to stop the car.
At this time, he saw the woman's abnormal condition, as if she was possessed by a ghost.
Yan Ke quickly opened the car door and pulled the girl out of the car. The girl's body was twisted on the road into a posture that ordinary people could not understand. She smiled strangely, which was completely different from the crying girl just now.
Nanyu's tail exploded, and soon after he meowed at the girl, Yan Ke heard Nanyu's voice saying, "Oh no, the fog is spreading."
At this time, Yan Ke looked back, subconsciously reached out and grabbed Nan Yu's hand.
The woman in front of him was controlled by the fog and became neither human nor ghost. Suddenly, her body twisted into huge tentacle. In just a moment, Yan Ke heard the sound of whistling wind.
Nan Yu grabbed Yan Ke and said, "It seems like your luck is very bad."
As he said that, he pulled Yan Ke into the car.
Yan Ke no longer cared about the girl's situation. The girl suddenly turned into a tentacle monster. The twisted and strange changes were simply unbelievable.
Yan Ke stepped on the accelerator and flew straight out. The vehicle sped towards the outside of the fog, but the speed of the fog's expansion not only did not slow down, but became extremely fast. The tentacle monster behind was also chasing him relentlessly in the fog.
Nan Yu fastened his seat belt while sitting in the passenger seat and said, "Look at you. You saved a person, but ended up sending yourself into the fog for no apparent reason. You really have a connection with the fog."
Yan Ke was speechless. She was really unlucky. Who could have thought that the person she rescued would suddenly mutate or even become abnormal.
"Hold on tight. The fog is getting too thick and my visibility is decreasing."
Nanyu replied: "Okay, hey!!! You better be careful." In Nanyu's eyes, Yan Ke was about to hit an object, but Yan Ke dodged it gracefully, and a trace of cold sweat appeared on Yan Ke's forehead.
Fortunately, there was no danger. The fog outside the car window gradually became thicker and the vehicle was moving slower and slower.
Yan Ke was still nimble enough to dodge the tentacle monster's attack.
Nan Yu, who was talkative just now, now held on tightly with both hands, not daring to relax at all. Although Yan Ke's driving skills were average, he was able to display his extraordinary driving skills when faced with such an emergency situation.
At this time, a tentacle's suction cup was clinging to the car. Yan Ke saw the girl's distorted but pitiful face right on the suction cup. It was so weird that his heart beat wildly.
"What the hell is this thing?" Yan Ke asked in doubt.
Nan Yu said, "This is corrupted by the weird game."
Then he lay down and said, "You are really careless. You are just waiting here without even thinking about how to escape?"
Yan Ke looked at the pitiful girl's face and actually opened his eyes, staring at the two of them through the gap between the sticky tentacles.
"She seems to be looking at us?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Ke was dragged to the back seat of the car by Nan Yu.
He whispered, "Don't you have a talisman? That thing can overcome it."
Yan Ke realized it belatedly and took out the talisman from the game panel and scattered it out.
The pitiful girl's face was instantly distorted and deformed, and her original appearance could not be seen. The huge tentacle loosened, and Yan Ke heard a rustling sound and it kept falling down and falling on the car glass.
It was the sound of flesh and blood falling apart.
The bright red blood was seeping through with black and purple mucus, which looked very unappetizing.
Nan Yu said, "It seems that the strange game is targeting you. Didn't I tell you before that if you want to stay alive, you should hide in foggy places? Unfortunately, there is no energy supply for me in your world. I am just a cat."
Yan Ke also expressed helplessness: "In fact, if I wasn't really short of money, I wouldn't have come to Quancheng."
Nanyu said: "You are really honest."
Yan Ke spread his hands: "There is no other way. The currency systems of the two worlds are unified. If I had money, I could buy some key items."
Both of them knew that the current situation was indeed dangerous, but since they had already arrived in the fog, they could only move forward.
Nanyu himself is a weird BOSS. The fog is energy. Not only is he not afraid of it, he also feels that the fog is the source of his power.
But Yan Ke is different. Even though Yan Ke has his own secrets, he is a human being after all. The current situation is that Yan Ke will be monitored by the strange game wherever he goes, making it difficult for him to stay in the real world for a long time. Nan Yu doesn’t know the reason.
However, since the last copy, Nanyu has confirmed a piece of news, that is, the copy world in the fog will disappear only if the players have completed the system tasks released by the weird game 100%. The fog with the related copy atmosphere in Yan Ke's world will also disappear.
The relationship between players and weird games is about life and death.
Although Nanyu is a weird BOSS, even if he runs around in the weird game, the weird game will not kill him easily, because Nanyu knows his own value and will let the weird game tolerate him until one side is in a weak position.
It now seems that the development of the weird game is not satisfactory, but the people in the real world where Yan Ke is are even weaker. Most of them have no special abilities. Except for a few smart people, few can come out of the copy of the weird game alive.
Nanyu could also see how outstanding Yan Ke was compared to these people, as he was able to pass four levels by brute force and brains.
"The fog outside is still very thick, much thicker than before."
Nanyu looked at Yan Ke and thought: [Yes, the strange game is about to devour this world. The amount of energy absorbed is unimaginable. Nanyu can also feel more refined energy in the fog than before. With only Yan Ke, this world will fall very quickly. Yan Ke's clearance is the result of the strange game deliberately reducing the difficulty.]
Just like when carnivores hunt, they sometimes play with their prey to give it a little hope, and then after slowly ravaging it, the prey will lose the will to escape and choose death, which is also a quick death.
Isn't the water that the weird game is giving Yan Ke now a kind of teasing of its prey?
However, Yan Ke is now his prey, and even if the Weird Game wants to snatch her away, he has to ask Nan Yu whether he agrees or not.
Nan Yu suddenly remembered the strange person that Luo Huai kept by his side in the third copy world. He had the same aura as Yan Ke.
Nanyu replied calmly, "Think it over. If you go out, you might die, or you might end up in a dungeon."
Yan Ke smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't die so easily. Even if I die, I will struggle."
As soon as he finished speaking, Nan Yu opened the car door: "Then just struggle."
Yan Ke subconsciously grabbed Nan Yu's wrist, and the next moment their vision shifted, and they came to that familiar place again and saw several familiar figures.
At the foot of the Giant Buddha Mountain, Fang Yu, Li Heng, Mu Ning, Gao Xu, An Qing, Meng Yueyue were all there, along with him and Nan Yu, a total of eight people.
And there were not only eight of them here. There were also some unfamiliar faces. Yan Ke was still holding Nan Yu's hand and looking at these people. They were all gathered together.
There was no time for everyone to reminisce.
Standing at the foot of the Giant Buddha Mountain, I remembered the melody of a well-known children's song "Where is Spring?"
It was lively and cheerful, with no depressing atmosphere at all, but Yan Ke felt an extremely weird atmosphere. Nan Yu turned around and said, "What did I say? Weird Game has taken a fancy to you, Yan Ke."
The calm tone was uneventful, but Yan Ke's heart was in turmoil. Over the years, although he had passed the level and returned to the real world, the remaining game panel in front of him reminded him all the time how he survived and what he was carrying, so that the underage boy had too many responsibilities and finally chose to escape. Although the crisis is lurking everywhere and it is a matter of life and death, even if Nanyu said that the weird game has taken a fancy to him.
The fear did not erode his heart. At this moment, he felt that he had lived in a daze for so long, and it was not like what those people said, that being alive was a good choice.
In fact, the weird game has been targeting him for a long time.
He looked at Nanyu. Nanyu's eyes were bright and clear, and seemed unfathomable. It was Nanyu like this who could touch his heartstrings inadvertently. He knew what it meant to be moved. It might mean a trap, an abyss, or a quagmire. In short, it would not be a good thing.
Yan Ke, however, felt that he was finished, really finished. No matter whether it was the weird game or Nanyu, he would not be able to escape it for the rest of his life, until one day he willingly died in this weird world.
Nanyu felt the coolness and wetness of the hand that was holding his wrist, but he smiled. He stopped and said, "Yan Ke, are you afraid?"
Yan Ke did not refute, but just lowered his eyes. Nanyu did not see the trembling in his pupils with his own eyes, but he felt Yan Ke's fear of the weird game. He knew his own weakness, and he also knew that he would sympathize with weak lives. This is the difference between humans and monsters, and also the similarity with gods, a heart of compassion for the world. Nanyu knew that Yan Ke's heart was no different from this.
