Lord of the Mysteries v6c67 - Tencent MTL

Moon City.

There are many mottled traces but extremely strong buildings out of a lot of human beings, some of them have obvious deformities, some have produced a certain degree of alienation.

The humans glanced at each other and found some doubt in each other's face:

There are still two or three months to go before the sun sacrifice, why did the high priest summon everyone to the square?

Did something big happen? The residents of Yuecheng entered the only square from the streets with worry, fear and confusion.

At this time, the platform was empty and the convener did not seem to have arrived.

According to the area to which they belong, the residents of Yuecheng gathered together in an orderly manner and began to discuss in a low voice:

"Why hasn't the high priest arrived yet?"

"doesn't he like to wait and don't want to be waited?"

"what on earth happened, and why did you suddenly summon the whole city except the guards?"

…….

In the sound, at the top of a tall tower near the square, behind the crystal glass, the high priest Nim leaned against the wall and looked at the square, enduring something with a twisted expression.

His gray hair rose, a pinch of short black hair grew on his face, and the flesh wriggled between the ribs and waist, forming a lump.

These abnormal changes disappear and appear from time to time, as if Nim is getting sick again and again, and the whole person is both evil and terrible.

More than a minute later, Nim finally calmed down, took a long breath, raised his hand and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

He was fighting against the madness that had accumulated in his body.

In fact, no matter which special approach, the higher the sequence, the more serious the crazy and inhuman tendencies, which will gradually transcend their own human nature, and must rely on external anchors to maintain adequate balance.

Normally, sequence 4 and sequence 3, this situation is not so obvious, and to the angel level, even if there are enough anchors to "fix", it will fall into a dark, negative, changeable state from time to time, and must be endured and confronted alone. Waiting for relaxation.

It's like a sacred and solemn existence, which usually seems to have no problems, can answer your prayers, chat with you normally, or even make jokes, but sometimes you can only hide in a dark room, hide in the shadows, tear off the surface skin, reveal the shady side, and show all kinds of signs of madness.

Nim suffered similar pain in sequence 4 because he often ate the flesh of monsters and accumulated a lot of toxins, pollution and madness.

Of course, the same will be true of sequence 4 and sequence 3, which do not know how to act and are promoted by time or luck.

Adjusted, Nim turned to leave the room and appeared directly on the high platform in the middle of the square with the help of an illusory door.

After all the discussion quieted down, the residents of Moon City cast their puzzled and uneasy eyes on the high priest.

Nim looked around and said bluntly:

"Adar's hunting team met an outsider."

Outsider! The eyes of the residents of Yuecheng suddenly opened wide, and there was a feeling that a high-altitude thunder fell directly on the city.

For more than two thousand years, Yuecheng met an outsider for the first time! Of course, this refers to humans who communicate rationally and intelligently, not monsters.

Nim took a silent breath and went on:

"he claimed to be a preacher who spread divine brilliance, and he made a marked change in the gray fog. He cleared Adar of the pollution and toxins accumulated in their bodies, and cured their physical abnormalities."

As he spoke, Nim nodded to the side of the platform, and Adar and Xin, who were hiding in the shadow, immediately walked past him through torches, proving each other's words with their own condition.

"hiss."

"Oh, my God!"

"is this Adar and Xin?"

"they really, really."

A voice of surprise blurted out, and the feelings of amazement and surprise were intertwined as if in essence.

Adar and Xin looked at each other, took two steps forward and told the original story of their hunting team.

Hearing the light of fire emerging in the darkness, the bright cross, the walking stick that can cure mutations and diseases, the separation of gray fog to both sides, and the formation of gates, the residents of Moon City gradually fell silent when they heard the happy description of their good condition by the members of the hunting team.

Some of them have unwittingly shed tears, because they are extremely tired and extremely depressed, and finally see a ray of light.

With a slightly mild and salty feeling, the tears flowed across the face, slid across the corners of the mouth and dripped to the ground.

In addition, people who remain rational and sober raise their arms and express their opinions:

"could that missionary be a special monster in the depths of darkness?"

"is it true that Adar and Xin have been controlled and influenced to perform like this?"

When the tide of doubt died down, Nim said in a low and clear voice:

"I checked them, and I checked them with a seal, and I didn't find anything unusual for the time being.

"I will keep them in the Black Tower for at least 15 days of observation."

After making a promise, Nimton said, "his name is German." Sparrow's preacher will penance near the gray fog for some time, where he will allow us to experience the brilliance of the god he believes in and listen to the corresponding teachings, and he will purify and heal once a day when lightning strikes most frequently.

"everyone can choose to go, but they must report in advance, listen to arrangements, and do not act privately, thus affecting the defense of the city-state, and those who go there will be quarantined for 15 days, just like Adar and Xin."

The residents of Moon City are all silent. You look at me, I see you, and you can't make up your mind.

At this time, before returning to the city to inform the high priest, Ruth, who had not been purified and treated, came forward with another member of the hunting team:

"High priest, I want to go!"

"well, I'll lead this team tomorrow." Nim nodded gently and agreed.

He had planned to give such a team a name, but he never thought of a good description, so he could only bump and skip it directly.

In fact, he had a name in his heart, but he dared not say it:

Pilgrims.

With Ruth taking the lead, several Moon City residents stepped forward and said they were willing to take a risk.

When the lightning frequency changed from low to high, a new day came, the Moon City team of seven or eight people, carrying animal skin lanterns, began to trek in the dark to the edge of the gray fog.

After many times of alternation between darkness and light, Ruth and others suddenly saw a glimmer of fire in their eyes.

It was a slow-burning bonfire, German in strange clothes and a strange hat. Sparrow sat on the other side, holding a long black iron stick, baking something.

Around the campfire lay the bodies of one monster after another. On these bodies, there were all kinds of strange things, some of them were white and full, and it seemed that liquid would be spurted out when they were poked, some with black as the bottom, inlaid with blood filaments and fat patterns, and some covered with golden spots, and the lid at the top was the size of the palm of the hand.

These things are dense, covering different parts of the monster's body, with a strange and attractive sense of beauty.

A few steps ahead, the high priest Nim found German. It was one of those strange things that Sparrow baked, dropping drops of oil and making a sizzling sound in the fire, making the light more obvious and letting a seductive strange fragrance escape.

Gollum, the Moon City residents of the team instinctively swallowed saliva and developed a strong, uncontrollable appetite.

Every one of their cells is shouting crazily:

I want to eat!

I want to eat!

Give me to eat!

Klein, sitting on a stone, raised his head, pointed to the bright things growing on the corpses of monsters around him, and said in a low voice:

"they are called mushrooms, and they are divided into different kinds. You can pick and eat them yourself if you like, but you can't touch the all-black ones, and they must be ripe enough to be imported, or you will suffer a terrible curse."

Nim, the high priest of Moon City, thought for a moment and answered on behalf of the others:

"We want to first listen to the teachings of your Lord and feel his glory."

Klein nodded gently, turning the barbecue stick he had summoned from the hole in history, and said:

"you can sit down and listen."

When the seven or eight residents of the moon city sat opposite the bonfire, he said solemnly:

"I come from the Giant King's Court."

It was a familiar term for the residents of Moon City, who cheered up and turned their attention away from the burning things on the campfire to German. Sparrow .

Then, as before, Klein described the state of Silver City and the situation outside the cursed land, and talked about the ruins of the city-state he had seen along the way.

This makes the residents of Yuecheng sometimes sigh, yearning, believing, empathizing and indignant.

In the middle of this, Klein suddenly stopped, withdrew his long black stick, put it to his mouth, and bit off a mushroom.

The rich gravy poured out and baptized his mouth with a slightly hot feeling.

After more than half a year in the abandoned land, Klein had overcome his aversion to mushrooms. After all, Danizi often had to be assigned by him to do something, so he could not prepare the food sacrifice carefully, and the gap in the middle could only be filled with mushrooms.

Klein closed his eyes contentedly. Klein handed out the long iron-black sign in his hand and smiled and said:

"you can have a try."

The high priest Nim was still hesitating, and Ruth reached out and thanked him by bringing down a mushroom and putting it into his mouth.

He ate so fast that his mouth was scalded, but his expression twisted and suddenly solidified.

Then his expression stretched out a little, showing a feeling of intoxication, enjoyment, and longing.

At last, Ruth burst into tears and sobbed in a low voice:

"this is, this is the best, best food I've ever eaten."

Even though their taste for food has changed from generation to generation, humans are unable to adapt to the toxins and madness, craving sugar and fat.

At this moment, all the residents of Moon City heard Ruth's move.
