After returning home, Lu Ban felt like a long time had passed.

But in reality it was only a little over a week.

After nightfall, the spring breeze was warm and he slept well.

The next day, Lu Ban sent a message to Feng Yu to let him know he was safe.

He felt a little regretful that Xuanjun's token was left in the temple along with most of his previous body. Otherwise, after taking it out, he could ask Feng Yu who the original Xuanjun was.

At noon, Feng Yu came to Lu Ban's house.

She didn't say anything and bought some vegetables to cook.

Sweet and sour spare ribs, lentil bacon, hot and sour shredded potatoes, radish and meatball soup, simple but the taste of home.

Eat and watch TV at the same time.

"Speaking of which, are the things over at Jiangcheng Mountain still there?"

Lu Ban looked at the middle-aged women dancing in the square in the news and suddenly asked.

“Yes, but also no.”

Feng Yu made a riddle.

Without waiting for Lu Ban to ask further questions, she explained it herself.

"You should have seen those great beings in their sealed states. This blind and foolish state is most likely the work of a greater being of a higher status. In other words, those sealed Old Ones became like this when they touched the truth precisely because they wantonly expanded and attempted to usurp power."

"Once interfered by that great being, all the Old Ones will become like that. After that, their enemies or some strange beings will reinforce the seal. Of course, just as pollution is contagious, so is blindness and stupidity. Therefore, most of the Old Ones are unwilling to get close to the sealed beings. Therefore, once they are sealed, they cannot escape in most cases."

"What if someone wants to release them?"

Lu Ban asked.

"Indeed, there are some people who want to release these Old Ones. Some are former followers of the Old Ones, or fools who are influenced by the fragmentary documents circulating in foreign lands and try to summon these beings. Or they may be other Old Ones who act for certain interests. However, most of the Old Ones are already crazy, and their actions are unpredictable."

Feng Yu replied.

"Then are there any Old Ones who like to do this kind of thing?"

Lu Ban asked again tentatively. The reason he did not explain directly was that he was worried that if Feng Yu did not know the existence of the dark-skinned man, then the knowledge he told Feng Yu would pollute Feng Yu.

Although Lu Ban felt that Feng Yu was a veteran and knowledgeable man who had seen a lot of storms and waves, and that the dark-skinned man must have seen a lot too, he still released the information bit by bit to be on the safe side.

"There shouldn't be many such Great Old Ones."

Feng Yu held his chin and thought for a moment.

“But there are higher beings who take pleasure in this.”

"What's it like?"

Lu Ban was curious.

"…You met him?"

Feng Yu reacted quickly.

"right."

"Wait, don't say anything yet, let me think about it."

Feng Yu also thought of the same thing as Lu Ban at this time.

The existences that Lu Ban saw were not necessarily the same as those he knew.

You have an apple and I have an apple. If we share them, it's still just one apple.

But you have knowledge, I have knowledge, we share it, and boom, everyone's brain explodes.

Sharing knowledge in a foreign land is a dangerous act.

Especially when it comes to news about the Old Ones and even beings above the Old Ones.

While Feng Yu was thinking, Lu Ban was also thinking.

Soon, he recalled a name.

Correa.

In the temple, the blond man had called out this name when the dark-skinned man appeared, and Lu Ban felt it sounded familiar.

Thinking carefully, he found that he had heard this name before.

At the Nanhua Private Renji Hospital, the hospital director who tried to summon the Old Ones, under the instigation of a man named Correa, mastered the method of summoning exotic monsters and subsequently fell into madness.

The being that the dean wanted to summon was the Old One bound by the black hole in the wasteland.

Similarly, the destruction of human civilization in the wasteland was due to the wormhole connecting to the Old Ones, which brought disaster. The destruction of humans in the wasteland and their crazy thinking might also have been caused by this man.

If these two names are the same, then this means that the man who goes by the alias Correa has tried many times to get others to lift the seal of the Old Ones.

This also explains why He did not choose to directly unlock Fang Geng's seal, but left directly.

Because if he tries to remove the seal directly, he himself will be affected by the blindness and stupidity, and become the same as the one who sealed it.

Therefore, He would constantly instigate ignorant humans to try to break the seal again and again.

No wonder a being of such high status needs to act in human form and interact with mortals.

His seemingly rational and elegant appearance is not truly rational, but a manifestation of extreme madness. When a person is too normal, he may be crazy at heart!

What's more, this person who is releasing the seals of the Old Ones everywhere and causing troubles all the time is indeed not rational.

"Do you remember the man mentioned by Nanhua Private Renji Hospital? I met him this time."

Lu Ban said.

"he?"

Feng Yu pondered for a moment, then suddenly realized.

"It seems we know the same one."

"I cannot tell you His name, but I can tell you that He is an Old One far superior to the Old Ones. He is the God above all gods. What you have seen is only one of His thousands of incarnations."

"Some of His incarnations are giant bats, ghostly and nightmarish; some are solemn and indifferent kings, well-dressed and handsome; some are graceful and deadly; and some are indescribable, and cannot be looked at directly by ordinary people."

Hearing Feng Yu's words, Lu Ban paid attention to some words.

"etc……"

He had also seen a similar existence in the abandoned city. It was a woman wearing a cheongsam and covering her face with a fan.

And in the Ruined City, there are apparently some sealed Old Ones waiting to be released.

Even in this world, there have been invasions by chosen ones from other foreign lands before, trying to untie the shackles on those sealed gods.

Lu Ban became more and more suspicious that the "God" in the Chosen Ones might refer to a God of the same level as that man.

For their own purposes, they arranged for humans to carry out various tasks, some to release the sealed Old Ones, and some to stop them.

This is all because of the supreme existence that makes people blind and foolish.

Lu Ban felt that he was gradually understanding everything.
