The stairs were empty at night, and the lights in the stairs were sometimes on and sometimes off. The only sounds in the entire apartment were the buzzing sound of the light bulbs and the footsteps of George and the two night watchmen.
The light of the flashlight was shining in the hands of the two night watchmen. George walked in the front and did not rely on any lighting tools to move forward.
The scene in the dark was crystal clear to George.
George climbed up to the 21st floor with ease. Standing at the landing, he looked down at the steps and shook his head. "The elevator's broken, the lights in the stairs aren't working, and there are spider webs and bugs in every corner. No matter how I look at it, something seems off. Is this really New York?"
New York has always been famous for its prosperity, but the darkness beneath the prosperity is hidden in the slums. Although this apartment is not located in a wealthy area, it is definitely not a slum.
Why is the condition of such an apartment so poor?
"It's right here."
On the east side of the twenty-first floor is an old lady who is a believer of the Eternal Night, and on the west side is the neighbor she mentioned in her prayer.
Standing in front of the west door, George could smell an extremely pungent stench of decay. This stench was simply unbearable for ordinary people, and even the well-trained soldiers couldn't help but frown.
A night watchman frowned and said, "Deacon St. George, should we go and ask the old lady about the situation here?"
"To be on the safe side, you go knock on the door and ask what's going on. I'll go in first and see what's going on here."
After George finished speaking, he suddenly remembered something and said to another night watchman, "Friend, be prepared to request reinforcements... What we are going through now is too much like a horror movie. If any problems arise, we will call for help."
"clear."
The two night watchmen nodded at the same time, indicating that they understood what George meant.
George took a deep breath and kicked open the west door.
After all, he has the physique of a ghoul, and his physical fitness is far superior to that of ordinary people. A mere security door is not enough to stop him.
The room was completely dark, so dark that one couldn't see one's hand in front of one's face.
At the same time, an extremely pungent stench wafted over.
Ghouls have night vision capabilities. When George entered the hall, he couldn't help but gasp and almost shouted "How horrible!"
This living room is full of dark yellow pus!
From the walls to the ceiling, from the sofa to the TV, George could also see traces of blood in the dark yellow pus!
George could even clearly see that the thick yellow pus on the ceiling was still dripping with this disgusting liquid.
Seeing such a strange scene, George felt his scalp tingling. He quickly prayed to the Lord of Eternal Night in his heart and slowly retreated.
The scene and atmosphere here reminded George of something, the reason why the Church of Eternal Night could cooperate with the government.
These dark yellow puss are similar to the mother of worms, and it can even be said that there is not much difference between the two.
"Damn it, is the Mother of Worms resurrected?!"
George felt a little embarrassed, as he was not sure of winning against the Mother of Worms.
It took three apostles, Aped, Jack and Dor, carrying a divine scepter, to fight against the Mother of Worms and finally destroy it. George thought he didn't have that much ability.
"Get out first, seal off the scene, and don't let anyone enter this apartment."
George followed his footsteps and slowly walked out of the room, but the security door was kicked open by George and could no longer be closed.
After George exited the west room, he glanced at the two night watchmen and asked, "Did you find out anything?"
The night watchman who was inquiring about the old lady's followers said, "Deacon St. George, the owner of this house is called Dalton. He has a wife and a daughter. He seems to be a staff member of a scientific laboratory."
"Dalton..."
George muttered the name several times, nodded, and said seriously: "Notify the church, we may be in big trouble."
"Also, we need to notify the New York State authorities and have them be on high alert. The Mother of Worms may have been resurrected through some means... or perhaps she hasn't been resurrected, and a different Mother of Worms has appeared."
After George finished speaking, he sighed and continued, "Anyway, there's probably a mother of worms in New York right now!"
The problem now is huge.
Everyone knows what the Mother of Worms is. The Church of Eternal Night paid a huge and heavy price to destroy it.
George exhaled, looked at the room filled with foul odor, and walked into the room with a stern face.
He had left the room immediately for safety reasons, and now he was trying to confirm whether the Mother of Worms was still in the room for the Church of Eternal Night.
George entered the room again and glanced at the living room. He saw many footprints, which looked messy, but it was clear that these footsteps finally pointed to the bedroom.
What's in the bedroom?
Thinking that the Mother of Worms might still be hiding in the bedroom, George moved forward cautiously, and the hot breath between his fingers began to ignite faintly.
George took a deep breath and started walking towards the bedroom.
The moment George entered the bedroom, he smelled a strong, nauseating smell of blood.
Then he saw the entire bedroom filled with blood!
Whether in the form of drops or sprays, all kinds of bloodstains filled the bedroom, making people feel deeply uncomfortable!
On the bed in this bedroom, a headless male corpse was lying on his back, and countless worms were wriggling on his body.
“Damn it!”
George's face looked a little bad. It was obvious that there was no Mother of Worms here.
However, it is not ruled out that the Mother of Worms is in other rooms.
George decisively left the bedroom and walked towards his side bedroom.
“Crack—”
The sound of the door swaying echoed throughout the room. The entire room was so empty that it was a little scary. George carefully entered along the wall, but the scene inside surprised George a little.
The room is tidy and almost perfect. There is a purple bookcase in the northeast corner of the room, pink gauze curtains swaying in the wind, an exquisite piano in front of the window, and a teddy bear placed neatly on the pink bed.
The first thing that came to George's mind was: This is a little girl's room.
"Um?"
Suddenly, in the dark, George saw a pink notebook on the piano stand, flipped over by the wind.
"journal?"
George walked over, picked up the pink notebook and started flipping through it.
The handwriting in the notebook was neat, but George could clearly see that there were several misspellings. Seeing this, George couldn't help but smile and began to read the little girl's diary:
"May 11th, sunny. Dad worked very late today and didn't come home until late. I heard from Mom that he went to a dangerous place and needed to be disinfected before he could come out..."
