Chapter 285 Who are you? !
Is it Vic, or... Ade?
Ivana didn’t understand what this meant at first. She was stunned for a long time before she reacted and her eyes widened.
"How is this possible?!" Ivana's voice began to tremble. "Why do you have such an idea? You are a human being! You..."
Ivana thought of Vic's previous words, so she stepped forward again, rushed into the inner room, and re-examined the bones.
But Ivina also knew that this was meaningless, because they had already searched the place many times and it was impossible to find anything new.
"There are only hunter bodies here."
This is what Vic said just now. Ivana didn’t think there was anything wrong before, but now she knows what Vic really wants to say - there is only the body of the hunter, but no body of the hound.
Yes, all those who died here were hunters.
But how is this possible?
Since the death of the God of Senluo, all hunters who entered the sacrificial field to inherit the power brought hunting dogs. However, most of the hunters died here, and their hunting dogs were nowhere to be seen.
So does Vic think that he is the hound?
"No, it's impossible!" Ivana looked at Vic again, "This is too ridiculous!"
At this time, Vic was sitting by the door again, clutching his head tightly.
Yvina saw that his fingers were growing longer rapidly, and his sharp nails and bristles were also growing rapidly.
He is transforming into a wolf!!
"No!" Ivana immediately stepped forward, grabbed Vic's hand, and said loudly, "Don't think about it! This must be a trick of that saint! Don't be fooled!"
Vic looked up at Yvina: "Saint?"
"Yes! I know that the current information has a great impact on you!" Ivana gritted her teeth and said, "But these cannot be used as decisive evidence, right? There are too many mysteries in this. Why do you directly think that you are Ade? That saint must be causing trouble again! It is disrupting your cognition!"
Vic's eyes were full of confusion: "It's disturbing my cognition?"
"Yes!" Ivana said firmly, "It must be! It has always been doing this, hasn't it?"
In fact, Yvina was not sure whether this was the interference of the saint, but she had to say so because she was afraid that Vic would lose control.
Yvina could sense that the closer they got to the sacrificial site, the more unstable Vic's mental state became, so she had to intervene.
"Don't be driven crazy by uncertain things!" Ivana whispered, "The truth is seen with the eyes, not guessed with the brain, right? That saint has always wanted you to use your brain to confirm your identity, but this is wrong!"
With Yvina's persuasion, Vic's wolf transformation finally stopped and he turned back into a normal person.
Although Yvina could still feel his hands trembling, it was enough to make her feel a little relieved.
After all, Vic's transformation into a wolf was too fast. You know, except for last night when Vic transformed into a wolf to save himself, he was very stable at other times.
But that crazy guess just now directly triggered his transformation into a wolf, which naturally made Ivana realize how great a psychological impact that guess had on Vic.
So she had to comfort Vic again: "Don't worry, take your time, we still have time, we can take it slowly."
Vic's shaking finally stopped.
"Okay." Ivana finally let go of Vic's hand. "Now let's slowly sort this out. Why do you think you are Ade? Is it because all the dead here are hunters?"
Ivana still spoke carefully because she knew this was a sensitive topic.
But being sensitive does not mean that it will not be touched. On the contrary, both she and Vic urgently need to know the truth.
Vic hummed, and then gave his reasons: "Ade and I came here, but I was the only one who went back, so I always thought that Ade was left behind. But I never saw Ade's body, not even the body of the hound, so I think the one who went back is most likely not..."
Vic didn't know what to say next, because he didn't know whether to say "Vic" or "Ade", he was very confused.
After hearing Vic's reasons, Ivana couldn't help but frowned.
To be honest, she felt that this reason was a bit too radical.
"I don't think this is right." Ivana expressed her thoughts. "You should know how big the sacrificial site is. The area we have walked through is less than one-tenth of its total area. So it is possible that not only the hunters died, but the bodies of the hounds were placed somewhere else, right?"
"Put it somewhere else?" Vic asked, "But why would they do that?"
"Who knows?" Ivana said casually, "Who can tell the truth about cults?"
In the past, Ivana's witty remarks could quickly divert Vic's attention, but this time it failed. Vic still sat there sullenly, with little anger in his eyes.
"Okay, let's figure this out." Ivana turned around and looked at the skeletons behind her again, whispering, "Ignoring that the bodies of the hounds were deliberately placed somewhere else, assuming they were really alive, where did they go? And why are they the only ones who survived?"
Vic thought hard, but couldn't figure it out.
"And those Wildfire Cultists." Ivana glanced at the two bodies outside. "Assuming that they did all this, what exactly do they want to do?"
“They want to become gods,” Vic said. “Father Uru told me.”
"I also know that they want to become gods, but how can they do it?" Ivana was also trying to recall the days when she had contact with the Wildfire Cultists. "From the time of death of the hunters here, the Wildfire Cultists started planning after the death of the God of Senluo, but how can they replace the God of Senluo and become the new god?"
This is not an easy thing to come to a conclusion. After all, no one can truly understand God, so naturally no one knows how to replace God.
But Yvina still felt they were close to the truth.
Dead hunters, missing hounds, and the strange resurrection ability of the Wildfire Cultists...
All this known information only needs one or two lines to connect them all together.
Just one or two lines.
Ivana's brows were almost furrowed, but she still couldn't think of anything.
“Huh…” Ivana let out a long breath. “There’s no point in thinking about it here. Let’s get going.”
Vic was about to nod when he saw Ivana stretching her hand in front of him, and he was stunned.
"Don't think too much." Ivana said seriously, "The truth is right in front of us. No matter what it is, we have to face it together, right?"
Vic opened his mouth.
In an instant, his own image reappeared in his mind.
"Come on, Ade, it's just ahead."
He said firmly.
"Don't be afraid, no matter what happens, I will always be with you!"
Vic was in a trance.
“Hey, hey, hey.” Ivana’s hands kept waving in front of his eyes. “Are you distracted again? Really? You said you would protect me, but now you’re not going to admit it?”
"I, I didn't."
Ivana raised her eyebrows and said in a commanding tone: “Then hold my hand, and we will finish this last section of the journey together!”
Vic subconsciously held Yvina's hand.
In Vic's eyes, Yvina's face and his own face intertwined, saying the same words.
"Let's go!"
…
“Hoo…Hoo…”
Fig was leaning against a big tree, breathing heavily.
At this time, his body was full of holes, and blood and internal organs were scattered all over the ground.
How long has it been?
Figg couldn't remember.
Twenty minutes? Probably not.
Less than twenty minutes had passed since the Devourer ate Visas' teeth, and his entire team of knights had been wiped out, and he was unable to defeat them despite his best efforts.
Right now, his life is like a candle in the wind.
The reason why he didn't die immediately was that when he was seriously injured, he desperately released another Devourer in an attempt to fight back.
But the result is...
Fig raised his head and looked at the huge piece of meat that was twisting constantly not far away.
Countless mouths and countless limbs were mixed together, biting and devouring each other.
Often, before you have time to chew the food on one side, it is already eaten by the other side.
This is the battle between devourers. Neither of them can do anything to the other, and the final outcome is the wreckage we saw before.
But this is when there is no interference from external factors.
And now that one of the Devourers has obtained the power of Visas, everything is different.
The other side, which was the last one he released, would definitely be completely devoured by Abeke's side, and then merge and ferment into a more powerful individual.
There is no one left in this land who can stop it.
One can even remove the adjective "on this land". With the fusion of multiple Devourers and the blessing of Visas' power, no human in the world can stop it.
And it will continue to expand, continue to devour, swallowing all the life it sees into its belly. At that time, the entire wildfire will become its food and its growth site. At that time, unless the gods come to the world, there will be no chance.
This monster was created by him.
Now he could only watch helplessly and couldn't even leave here to report the news.
Because his life is like a candle in the wind.
Thinking of this, Fig couldn't help but let out two miserable laughs.
"Are you making fun of yourself?" A male voice suddenly sounded from behind him, "How could the dignified Bishop of the Northern Rhine end up like this?"
Fig was slightly startled and raised his head with difficulty. He saw the guy who had fought with Abeke before standing beside him and looking at him with a smile.
"It's you?! Cough cough cough."
Fig's current physical condition was no longer sufficient to support his strong emotional changes, so he had to force himself to calm down so that he could live longer.
"Who are you?" He stared at Bai Wei and asked the question that had been bothering him before, "You are not Ulu, why do you have fingers?!"
"What do you think?"
"You killed Ulu?" Fige whispered his guess, "You took away his fingers and eyes... How many body parts do you have now?"
"I didn't kill him." Bai Wei shook his head. "It was just a deal."
"Trade?" Figg sneered, "Do you take me for a fool? What can you give that would make him willing to use Visas' body as a bargaining chip?"
"Well... Strictly speaking, the transaction was not about body parts." Bai Wei said with a smile, "But you know what I paid for."
Fig asked subconsciously: "What is it?"
Bai Wei squatted down, looked at Feige at eye level and said with a smile: "The same guy as you."
...a guy like me?
Fig was stunned for a moment before he realized something. His eyes widened immediately: "Corey?! Did you kill Corey?!"
His voice was trembling.
"Who the hell are you?!"
Bai Wei did not answer his question, just like he did not tell him how many body parts he had. Instead, he cast his gaze towards the Devourer not far away and said leisurely, "Don't you have any plan to deal with such a big commotion?"
What’s the solution?
Fig, who was originally angry, laughed after hearing this.
"You're scared, aren't you?" Fig looked at Bai Wei, "It has grown up, no one can stop it! You can't either, and it will target you as soon as it finishes devouring. No matter how many body parts you have or where you run to, it will find you... Hehe, it will find you! It will find you! So, don't think you have won! We will meet in hell eventually! Oh no, I won't go to hell, only you will go to hell! I will go to the kingdom of God, I will return to the Lord!"
Figg spoke louder and louder, and became more and more excited, completely ignoring his body that could collapse at any time.
While he was attacking crazily, his eyes never left Bai Wei, as if he wanted to see Bai Wei's fear and regret.
But unfortunately, Bai Wei just smiled.
"The Devourer is made up of the resentment of the gods, right?" Bai Wei asked slowly.
“Haha, you want to learn the Devourer’s weakness from me?” Fig said coldly, “But it’s useless, because the Devourers are indeed from the gods. They have the characteristics of gods, and you can’t contend with them no matter what!”
"Really?" Bai Wei said with a smile, "But they couldn't do anything to me when they were alive, so will they be able to do it after I die?"
Feige didn't react at first. What did he mean by before and after death? By the time he realized what Bai Wei meant, Bai Wei had already turned and left.
"Goodbye." Bai Wei waved his hand without looking back, "Don't worry, I promised Uru that I would reunite you with your god, but... not in the kingdom of God."
"What nonsense are you talking about?! You want to say you are Visas? Stop kidding!" After realizing what was happening, Fig yelled at Bai Wei, "Visas' soul has been annihilated! There's no way He will come back!"
What a rampant and low-quality lie this is!
Normally, Feig would just laugh.
And now he was trying to laugh, responding to the madman with the most playful and mocking laughter.
But somehow, he couldn't smile when looking at that figure from behind.
Rhine, Lyra, Holy Sound, and now Wildfire.
Everything, their puzzled, doubtful, and shocked behaviors were strung together, pointing to that name.
Who else could do this except Him?
"No, it's impossible?!" He yelled wantonly. At the last moment of his life, despair and fear surged into his heart again. "You can't be Visas! Tell me now, you are lying to me! You are lying to me!!"
Bai Wei never looked back until his figure completely disappeared from Fig's sight.
"No... Tell the Lord, tell the Lord!"
Fig reacted. Although his current body made it difficult for him to communicate with the Lord, the probability of success even if he risked everything was no more than one percent.
When the responsibility of Bishop Rhine drove him to make a last effort.
Because Visas is back.
Even if he was talking nonsense and deceiving himself, he would bring this possibility to the Lord!
Fig clenched his teeth and began to gather his strength.
But as soon as he turned around, he found that the surroundings were unusually quiet, and the restless chewing sound had disappeared.
So he raised his head, and then looked into thousands of eyes.
A few seconds later, he lost even that last glimmer of possibility.
