At night.
Vivian's house.
She sat quietly on the chair and looked at her brother Joan, father Rebo, and mother Sophia. She made up her mind to protect this family.
Rebo had just returned and did not have the time to enter the study. Of course, he would not find out that the journal was stolen.
At this moment, he was drinking beer absent-mindedly. His eyes subconsciously glanced at the study.
It was as if there was an indescribable temptation hidden there.
To Joan and Sophia, this was just Rebo's old habit of archaeology acting up again.
However, Vivian's heart skipped a beat when she saw this. She knew that the journal had a deep impact on her father.
Even though Rebo was passionate about the research in the past, it would not cause this family-oriented man to lose his composure at the dining table like this.
'Dad's condition is already at the edge of danger … Should I wait for him to be alone and give him a mental seal?'
Vivian thought to herself. 'This mental seal is the best way for ordinary people to maintain their rationality when faced with supernatural phenomena … Unfortunately, without my teacher's permission, I can't teach it to anyone outside of the church. Otherwise, with this seal, it would be much safer for dad to study supernatural books …'
As she drank the mushroom soup, she suddenly had the urge to pull her entire family into the church.
After all, the apocalypse would come in less than three years.
The awakening or arrival of many ancient rulers would definitely bring about terrifying changes to the world.
By then, having a bit of supernatural power would at least increase their chances of survival compared to others.
Not to mention, before the apocalypse, all kinds of supernatural powers would become very active. There would be danger everywhere.
"I'm so hungry!"
Joan had already started to shout with his knife and fork in hand.
He took the opportunity to wink at Vivian. Vivian could read his meaning. He was saying that this was the last chance. If there was anything left uncleaned in the study, she should quickly find an excuse to clean it up.
Vivian shook her head slightly. She saw that Sophia had already brought a plate of roast chicken to the edge of the dining table. She looked at Joan and complained unhappily, "Joan, you're already an adult. Don't act like a child every day … Maybe, it's time for you to move out. You need to learn how to support yourself."
Joan blinked innocently. He was about to say something when his expression suddenly changed.
Bang!
A loud noise came from the door. Even the bowls and plates on the table shook violently.
"Who?"
Madame Sofia looked up blankly.
"Don't open the door!" Leiber shouted calmly. He walked to the edge of the living room and picked up the double-barreled shotgun hanging on the wall.
In this era, burglaries and robberies were common. If one couldn't control it, it would develop into murder.
Every resident was used to buying guns and using bullets to protect themselves.
According to the local law, the owner of the house had the indisputable right to shoot and kill such trespassers.
Bang!
The person did not reply and continued to knock on the door.
The wooden door let out a sorrowful wail, and the brass-colored metal at the edge of the door began to twist and change shape … A nail flew out.
"Call the police!"
Joan stood in front of Vivian and held the knife tightly in her hand. "Vivian, I'll protect you later. Remember to listen to me. If I tell you to run, you run immediately."
Vivian did not answer.
In fact, her spirit was sharper than everyone else's. When she first knocked on the door, she felt the difference.
Outside the house, blue seawater seemed to rise, trying to drown the house.
That was not real seawater, but a torrent in the spiritual realm!
For ordinary people, it might be even more unbearable.
Therefore, she had been using her spiritual sense and spirit to block the sea and the waves outside the door.
The thing outside the door seemed to have noticed this as well, and it began to use other methods to attack.
Bang!
Finally, after another loud noise, the door suddenly fell backwards, and a tall black shadow appeared.
It was wearing a vagrant's clothes, and it had a tall physique. It walked into the house step by step, leaving wet footprints.
"Ah!"
After seeing the face of the shadow, Mrs. Sophia immediately screamed.
What kind of ugly face was that?
It was twisted and crazy, and covered in fish-like scales. It was a monster!
Merely looking him in the eye caused an emotion called terror to explode in her heart, causing her to be unable to arouse the slightest thought of resisting, and all she wanted to do was flee.
"Scaly people?"
Professor Leiber shouted in surprise. Seeing that the monster still walked forward, he pulled the trigger without hesitation.
A gunshot sounded.
Countless lead bullets shot out like a flower and landed on the strange man's body, causing blood to splatter everywhere.
Those fish-like scales were as fragile as clothes under the explosion of modern firepower.
The monster was stunned, and it looked at its wound. It did not fall, but it slowed down.
Crack!
At this moment, the left window of the living room shattered, and a large amount of glass shattered.
A figure jumped in.
It was another scaly person!
At the same time, a loud knocking sound came from the right window, the back door, and the wall.
"Hehe … Ha … Am I dreaming?"
Joan grabbed the knife, and an exaggerated smile appeared on his face. "I'm just having dinner. How did I become surrounded by monsters?"
"Hehe!"
The new scaly people seemed to have lost their minds, and they pounced at Vivian like wild beasts.
Clearly, there was a mastermind behind them, and they also knew who it was that had been fighting against them.
"Damn it!"
Joan gathered his courage and pounced.
Pu!
His knife stabbed into the arm of a scaly person, but most of the force was absorbed by the scales and muscles. The scaly person did not stop at all. It raised its arm high and slammed it down.
The back of Joan's head was hit hard, and he lay on the ground, almost fainting.
His mind was in chaos. He saw his screaming mother, roaring father, and his cold-faced sister who stood up.
"It's you again!"
Vivian's pretty face was filled with anger. "Elder Deep Sea's dogs, disgusting half-Fish Scale people … Die!"
She did not hurt herself again, because seeing her family destroyed and her brother lying on the ground, her heart was already filled with anger and pain.
Mental pain could also be sacrificed to darkness!
"My name is the Bird with Broken Wings. Devour your pain to feed my heart!"
Vivian chanted loudly. She felt that her incantation was very smooth this time, and it was very compatible with the power of darkness.
On the ground, the shadow of the Bird with Broken Wings appeared, and it pounced at the scaly people.
The black shadow was sharper than any blade in the world. The scaly people that even hunting guns could not do anything to fell in droves, and the cuts on their bodies were extremely smooth.
"This …"
Joan, Uncle Rei, and the others were stunned.
They looked at Vivian as if they were looking at another person.
Was this still the gentle and cute daughter and sister?
