Chapter 56 Foreign Bodhisattva



Whether it is the guards in the city or the staff who maintain order in the base, they are all ordinary humans with no physical mutations.

Orcs and ordinary people live in the same base. Both sides do not interfere with each other and do their own things as if the other does not exist. An invisible barrier stands between the two.

interesting.

Shen Lanzhou stroked her chin inconspicuously. In her previous life, when she came into contact with Shanhai City, it was the seventh year of the apocalypse. This place already had the name of "Devil City of Strange Beasts". It was a paradise for alien species and ordinary people had long disappeared.

Something very interesting must have happened on the way from the Shanhai City base to the Monster City.

But this is not the point. Her purpose of coming to Shanhai City is to use the abundant and powerful biological monster resources near Shanhai City to increase her strength level.

The journey lasted three months. Except for the setback she suffered when she encountered the super-sized Nephalem in the early stage, she basically killed people all the way she walked.

The results of her hard work are very encouraging, and she is now level 33 (C).

By raising her level to 41, or B, she had the confidence to participate in the meat grinder-like war in Suihua City.

Miss Helan, who met by chance, was unexpectedly responsible. She took Shen Lanzhou and her pendant Lily to the base, registered, and found a house to live in. Only after everything was done did she leave with her brother with peace of mind.

I inserted the key into the lock and was about to turn it when the door opposite opened.

A middle-aged woman who hadn't mutated looked up and saw Shen Lanzhou about to open the door, and smiled warmly: "Hey little sister, are you new here?"

"Yes, I'm new here, so please take care of me, Auntie." Shen Lanzhou nodded politely and pushed open the door.

The middle-aged woman noticed Lily, who was clinging to Shen Lanzhou's arms like a sloth with half of her head sticking out, and her smile became even brighter: "Oh? You brought a sister with you?"

"Yes."

This neighbor, whom he met for the first time, was overly enthusiastic and chatted incessantly with Shen Lanzhou while standing at the door.

She called herself Aunt Mei, her husband was the captain of the urban management team, and her son was a doctor who had returned from overseas. While introducing herself enthusiastically, she asked if there was anything she could do for her and whether she wanted her to help clean or take care of the children.

Although he felt a little impatient in his heart, Shen Lanzhou still maintained a polite demeanor and refused: “No, thank you for your concern.”

"Oh, by the way, sister, someone died in this house, it's unlucky. I think there's a lot of yin energy in here, and you're bringing a little kid with you, it's not good." Aunt Mei stood at the door of Shen Lanzhou's rented house and peeked in: "Do you want to invite a Bodhisattva to protect the house?"

After talking for so long, are we finally getting to the point?

Shen Lanzhou's eyebrows moved, revealing an interested look: "What Bodhisattva? There are no Bodhisattvas in this world who can help."

In the red light apocalypse, the dead people could circle the earth twice and a half, but no Bodhisattva appeared. Instead, all kinds of alien gods and heresies emerged.

Aunt Mei looked around, covered her mouth, and said in a low voice with her hands, "This Bodhisattva of mine is not ordinary. It is a foreign Bodhisattva that my son brought from the United States when he went abroad to study!"

Shen Lanzhou couldn't hold back and almost laughed out loud.

The foreign Bodhisattva is okay.

She showed a more interested expression on the surface: "What do you mean?"

Seeing that there was hope, Aunt Mei became even more excited. She trotted into the house and reverently took out the "foreign Buddha" she had been thinking about.

It was a sculpture of a crouching monster. Only an American, whose brain had been completely eroded by poisonous duckweed and who had lost his mind, could stitch together a wriggling octopus brain, a scaly, winged dragon, and twisted, swollen human limbs into such a horrific beast.

When Shen Lanzhou looked into the densely packed, swollen eyeballs on the octopus's head, he felt as if he had sunk 20,000 miles into the sea, covered by endless sea water and pressure. His body seemed to be tightly grasped by a giant hand, and the internal organs in his chest and abdomen were almost vomited out of his mouth.

Bang!

The glass rolled off the table and shattered onto the ground. The sharp sound of the glass breaking was like a huge bell ringing in my ears, and my heart in my chest was burning like a flame.

Shen Lanzhou gasped for breath, the back of his shirt was wet, and his eyes, which were tightly closed on his cheekbones, opened and glared at Aunt Mei fiercely.

The other party was startled and took several steps back unconsciously. She didn't care about the false etiquette of piety and hugged the "foreign Buddha" in her arms tightly, staring at Shen Lanzhou vigilantly: "Sister... are you okay?"

"I'm fine."

Shen Lanzhou raised his head, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and smiled politely at the other party: "Sorry, I'm a little unwell. Let's talk next time if you have anything to say."

"Is that so?" Aunt Mei smiled awkwardly: "Then I won't bother you anymore. Goodbye!"

Bang!

The door was slammed shut, and then the sound of the door opposite also being slammed shut was heard.

"Sister, you look so bad, do you have a fever?"

Lily put her forehead against Shen Lanzhou's.

Through the memory of this body, she knew that when "Lily" was sick in the past, her mother would check on her with these foreheads pressed against her.

"When you look at that foreign Buddha statue, don't you feel anything unusual?" Shen Lanzhou asked.

"Lily, no." Lily shook her head in confusion and said, "The foreign Bodhisattva is so ugly."

"I'm afraid she's going to hire the real guy."

Shen Lanzhou took out paper and pen, sat at the table and started writing and drawing.

[Western Bodhisattva] with an octopus head, wings, a dragon body, and human limbs

A crimson mass that covers the sky [Wuba]

Nephalem, who controls an endless swarm of rats

His body changed in many ways, and he had a voracious appetite that ate up all the living creatures in the city. Finally, after the appearance of Nephalem, he surrendered to the Shoggoth at the speed of light and slid to his knees.

After thinking about it, she added the mysterious giant beast under the Qingkong base.

In fact, there is also the dark shadow who ripped out her heart at the beginning.

Through the few words he got from Shi Meng during his tryst with her in the dream, Shen Lanzhou learned that the other party was just a slave of [Nephalem].

These were the beings that would cause her severe physical and psychological discomfort whenever she saw them. Perhaps there were clear hierarchical differences between them, but Shen Lanzhou, who only had a rough understanding of this, tentatively referred to them all as "K-type monsters."

In particular, the image of the foreign Bodhisattva is highly similar to the Old One Cthulhu mentioned in "The Call of Cthulhu" that she had read before.
