There was no Afterlife Cult, it had always been Afterlife Cult …
Gu Jun's mind received another heavy blow. He had his suspicions but was unwilling to believe them.
These cultists knew that the Son of Steel was the Son of Misfortune. Even in the foreign world, after the hemoptysis, this was not a secret.
The Son of Misfortune caused the destruction of Carlott College? The world gave up on the Goddess of Life and turned to the so-called Lord of R'yleh …
Was this information real or fake? Was it real or fake? Gu Jun could no longer tell the truth. Too many truths had been buried in the dust of history.
However, he still believed in one thing, Lenton possessed the power of the Light Side. The Son of Steel was still among the Son of Misfortune.
That was why he had always had a chance. Even now, this world still had a chance …
The system, that mysterious power should be the work of the Son of Steel …
"Misfortune, misfortune!" The shouts in the wind rang out again, and the black-robed figures that covered the surrounding mountains and plains all walked over. Regardless of whether they were the ones that had appeared before or the ones that had just appeared, their pace became very fast, and the speed at which they reformed after being smashed by the cannons was also faster.
Gu Jun tried to do something but he could not even summon the energy to open the system in his mind. His consciousness was fading and his body was swaying …
"Dirty-minded Jun?" Wu Shiyu naturally sensed something was wrong. He reached out to pull her mental power over to him.
'No, go away. 'Gu Jun was so anxious that he managed to say, "No …"
The dark energy in his body was going out of control. If she tried to form a mental connection with him, she would only be dragged into the abyss. The others were in the same situation.
Hearing that, Wu Shiyu's hand stopped. He frowned and asked, "Then what should I do? How can I help you?"
The wind howled, and the withered grass on the wasteland was swept up. The power of the ritual had reached a new peak. More black-robed people condensed from the soil, instantly closing the distance and destroying the tactical formation of the coalition forces. The scene suddenly became chaotic.
Two members of the assault team were caught off guard and knocked down. The people in black robes rushed forward and stabbed them with the scalpels in their hands.
Screams of pain exploded, and the blood of the two team members splashed out along with the tip of the knife.
Facing the tens of thousands of monsters that could continuously resurrect, the hundred or so people had no advantage in numbers. Their guns and cannons could not hit them at all.
Moreover, once it turned into a hand-to-hand fight, there was too little room to fire. Monsters could be resurrected, but if they were hit by bullets, they would basically die. Suddenly, the Russian captain, Prokhorovka, was pounced on by a few flesh monsters. They bit his face and neck and stabbed him with knives, causing blood to gush out.
"Ah!!" Prokhorovka screamed. His eyes had been pierced by the scalpel. "Fire, hit me!"
The other Russian soldiers around them cried out in grief and anger. At the same time, they opened fire at the captain. The monsters were destroyed, and so was their captain.
The death toll rose quickly. On the other side, Holliday Matt from FBM, who had gained global popularity due to his youth, was drowned by the group of black robes. The large black man, Michael J. Gibbs tried to save his friend but he was also stabbed by the group of black robes.
The scene around them looked like hell. Their stamina and mental power were draining away. It became more difficult for them to form the Ancient Seal.
Furthermore, there were too many enemies …
Other than Zhang Huohuo, who continued to perform CPR on Xue Ba, and Uncle Dan, who was busy saving Deng Ximei, the rest of the medical team had joined the battle. The 17 unconscious members were slaughtered one by one by the flesh monster.
Cullen Douglas had his throat slit. But the words he uttered before he fainted seemed to echo again, 'Today we will all die, today is the day …'
At the same time, Bell Grant, Friderison and the other commanders shouted, 'Hold on, hold on, hold on.' But they had no idea how long they could hold on.
Even Peacock and Malachite who were used to death were confused. This was not a normal abnormal power, this was not …
"Dirty-minded Jun, Dirty-minded Jun!" Wu Shiyu did not give up. Even though she did not touch Gu Jun, she kept calling his name, trying her best to help him hold on.
That was definitely useful …
If not for her call, Gu Jun had no idea whether his consciousness would still be there or not and whether he would still have the strength to resist the darkness.
Therefore, he continued to look at the other side of the hill. Almost all the members of Afterlife Cult had entered the stone plaque. Only a few red robes remained. Even the Deep Ones had started to enter.
Afterlife Cult, R'yleh Cult, Dagon Esoteric Cult, the members of these organizations overlapped …
This was because the Son of Misfortune and Dagon were both servants of the Lord of R'yleh.
Gu Jun was reminded of the system. That should be the result of him triggering the power of R'yleh at the bottom of Longkan Seabed. It activated the power of the Son of Misfortune and the Son of Steel. Thinking back, the rewards given by the system had never deviated from these relationships.
Longkan Seabed … The Seagull …
Perhaps due to this state of dissociation from human consciousness, Gu Jun appeared to understand the Deep One's language book. He could understand the symbols and words on the stone plaque and from there, he could see the abyssal world inside the stone plaque that was enlarged by the ritual.
There were a lot of dead souls, a lot of sacrificial offerings, and all kinds of life forms …
He caught a glimpse of the smiling faces of two Deep Ones, faces that he could not see earlier.
But they were also two faces that he was once familiar with.
"Xiao Jun …" A gentle female voice rang out. It was one of the Deep Ones. "You've come all the way here. It must have been a long journey."
The other Deep One's voice was male. "Xiao Jun, you've grown so much. Good job!"
Gu Jun understood instantly. It was them. They were inside the stone monument. They had become sacrifices to Dagon.
"What are those documents?" He asked loudly, "What documents have you hidden away?!"
"Documents?" The woman's voice was still gentle. "Aren't those documents already in your mind?"
Gu Jun was certain now. They were the 'documents' rewarded by the system and they had used this method to hide them …
"You're the one who created this system?"
"No, we do not have that kind of power. That is a gift you were born with. We merely helped you fix it so that it can be activated."
It was just a thought but Gu Jun felt his eyes redden. He gritted his teeth. "Why, why would you do this? What kind of people are you …"
"Xiao Jun, we are all that kind of child." The gentle woman said, "We were born into R'yleh families, we had no choice. But your father and I have always had a different perspective than others and that is how we ended up together. "
"What perspective do you have?"
"Now you know that no matter what the mortals' attitude is, the power will still exist. It is like fire, you can use it to destroy everything but it can also be used to create a civilization. Around us, there are too many people who want to use fire to destroy, but the many families and organizations make it difficult for us to make the decision. But we still have to do what we should do. We use our power wisely to avoid the end of destruction. "
Gu Jun's tears started to well up. "Is that so? So what have you done? Those bad things? "
In that instant, he saw something from the past. It was the same thing, but it was something that he had not seen before.
The gentle woman stabbed the knife at the young Tong Ye. She did not aim for any vital organs like his kidneys. If it was someone else, Tong Ye would be dead already. It was also this woman who tried her best to protect the children in the Dream. Later on, she tried her best to protect him and Deng Ximei …
"Why, why did you not join Phecda?" he mumbled.
"Xiao Jun, we are sorry to disappoint you. We are not good people." The woman said, "But … we have always wanted to do good …"
"Today is the day." The man smiled. "It is all for today. Let the Son of Misfortune be silenced and let R'yleh sink into darkness for a few more days. That is not too bad an ending. Xiao Jun, you go. We will watch over you. End this ritual, end us cultists! "
Tears fell from Gu Jun's eyes. He felt a new power bursting from his heart to fight against the darkness. It came from that peak, from the system.
The peak was not at the bottom of the sea but in his heart.
