Chapter 84: CH 84

Chapter 84: Castle Cry (XI)

Fear, endless fear, Qi Leren moved in panic, and the shadows crawling at his feet moved. They dragged him to the ground with incredible strength and he could not move. The dagger inlaid with holy runes had no effect on the shadow. Qi Leren ruthlessly cut his left arm with the knife, and blood gushed out. The rune on the dagger gave off milky white light, which made his blood carry a weak holy power. The shadow crawling all over the ground paused for a moment, and then came upon him again.

Damn, how could he deal with this thing without form? As the power of the shadows wass getting stronger and stronger, Qi Leren was pulled down and he couldn’t stand up. Looking up, the crazy lady was less than five meters away from him!

Save? Or should he use another spell?

No, it wasn’t the time to save. Try again!

A miniature bomb was thrown out and exploded nearby. On the ground, Qi Leren felt the impact, and all the candles nearby went out, leaving only a few candles scattered in the deepest part of the basement.

Qi Leren looked up. After the smoke dispersed, he saw the crazy lady lying on the ground in the distance. She was still, as if she had died in the explosion.

Had she died just like that? Was it over?

Qi Leren was in a state of dreamy unreality, and the shadows had disappeared. He slowly got up from the ground and staggered towards her… Either way, he should make sure with the dagger first.

After the explosion, the miniature bomb had left a pit in the basement. Qi Leren bypassed it and carefully came to the crazy lady’s side. She was lying on the ground, her face covered with blood, her eyes closed, and her long golden hair scattered, as if she had lost her vitality.

Qi Leren walked towards her in the dark, and the remaining candlelight in the distance was ethereal, but it could not reach his feet. He came to the lifeless crazy lady’s side, clutching the dagger in his hand and slowly lifting it…

Kill her and finish this mission.

Qi Leren’s heart beat so fast that even his eardrums were shaking, and his wrist holding the dagger trembled gently because of the fierce struggle just now. He felt as if he was wrapped in a sticky dark, and countless questions, metaphors and plots were glued together, which locked him firmly. But as long as he swung the dagger, everything would be punctured by a sharp blade, and everything would end rudely.

As long as it was over.

With a dull pain in the back of his neck, the seed reminded him that this was a place full of demons, and he couldn’t delay any longer.

Determined, Qi Leren tightened his hand holding the dagger and stabbed it hard!

The wrist was firmly held by a thin and pale hand, and a temperature as cold as ice froze him. When Qi Leren realized what was holding his hand, he jolted like he’d been given an electric shock - his wrist was clasped, and he couldn’t escape at all.

He didn’t know when the dead crazy lady had opened her eyes. The intact left eye and the right eye that has become a bloody hole “looked” at him together, and the corners of her mouth rolled up in a strange angle.

“Ah, you are not Adeline.” The crazy lady sighed and said, “She was a kind, obedient and stupid woman - while she was still alive. Your skin is so warm, this is the temperature of the living. You are not Adeline.”

Her intact left eye was also empty and held no focus.

“Are you my Johann?” The crazy lady’s other hand slowly touched Qi Leren’s cheek, and the hand stained with blood and ashes smeared the smell of death on his face. “My dear, dear Johann. Do you still love me when I am no longer kind, gentle, and beautiful?”

Blood, blood with a demonic smell, was wiped on his face, and the seed of slaughter was like a river that burst its banks, which plunged down from the dam of rationality and instantly washed away his will.

At this moment, Qi Leren only had time to save. At the moment when the save was finished, the seed of slaughter living in his back neck jumped instantly, and spread to his whole body along the spine. The demon power filled his whole body, and a bloodthirsty desire for killing invaded Qi Leren’s mind.

Kill her!

Qi Leren’s caught wrist filled with strength. He swung his backhand and grabbed his crazy lady, and threw her away. The crazy lady screamed and flew a few meters, and her body collided with the wall beside her, knocking away some candles that had already been extinguished.

“Monster… You’re a monster!” the crazy lady suddenly screamed in horror, trembling.

Qi Leren stood up, his eyes empty, and walked to her step by step.

The crazy lady screamed horribly. In the banshee-like high-pitched sound, the extinguished candles lit up again, and the huge basement shone brightly. In this dazzling flickering candle light, countless shadows recovered again, flocking to Qi Leren like a tide.

Qi Leren was still moving forward, and those crazy shadows were shaking and flapping like branches in the wind, but at the moment when they come into contact with Qi Leren, they seemed to be blocked by invisible barriers, unable to ensnare him, and could only struggle and twist around him in vain.

Low magic, ah.

In Qi Leren’s mind sounded a voice that didn’t belong to him, or it wasn’t a voice at all, but a stream of consciousness that suddenly appeared in his mind. He knew what it was saying, even if it didn’t resort to language.

The seed of slaughter, talking.

Qi Leren was aware of this, but right now the controlled brain and body couldn’t make any response to the problems he was aware of. It is like a letter that had been written but then forgotten to be sent, and thus it couldn’t get a response from the recipient.

He came to the crazy lady, caught her neck with his right hand, and lifted her up.

The crazy lady with blood on her face opened her mouth wide, her feet were off the ground, her face was ferocious and twisted, and her whole body weight remained on her fragile neck, which could break at any time. Her legs struggled to kick, but her strength was weak. Those crazy shadows surrounded her, twisting and changing the shape terrifyingly as she struggled.

However, all this had lost its effect. Qi Leren threw away the dagger inlaid with holy runes in disgust. The metal dagger fell to the ground and bounced twice, then went to sleep quietly. But his hand clenched around the crazy lady’s neck became harder and harder, and it closed like a vice - a crisp crack sounded, and the struggling crazy lady quivered before going limp. Demon energy gushed out from her, and was swallowed up by the seed through Qi Leren’s hands.

Qi Leren loosened his hand and watched her turn into a pile of dead meat, which then quickly rotted into a pile of bones amidst the candlelight.

Wake up quickly.

Wake up!

Trapped in the depths of his consciousness, he shouted, and Qi Leren’s fingers twitched. He was trying to compete for control of his body with the seed of slaughter, but unlike the last time he awakened the seed of slaughter, this time it had absorbed new demon power and became stronger and more greedy.

He only had a few seconds at most, and Qi Leren suddenly broke out and bumped into the rough wall. The sharp pain made him wake up instantly, and the seed of slaughter entrenched in his consciousness unwillingly receded. Reason and control once again returned to his body.

Qi Leren collapsed and sat on the ground, blood dripping slowly from his forehead, which smeared half of his face. But at this time, he couldn’t take care of it, and fatigue surged up from the bottom of his heart, making his body dull.

Blood flowed through the corners of the mouth and tasted salty. The dormant seed of slaughter seemed to be stirring again. Qi Leren took out the holy water from his inventory and took a sip of it, suppressing it back.

The holy power in the holy water injected a little vitality into his body. At least he had the strength to stand up.

The wound on his head wasn’t serious. Qi Leren directly covered it with a towel. He was ready to go out later and let Dr. Lu bandage it simply, to try not to waste his skills. Only, the cut on his arm was a bit deep. He bandaged it tightly to avoid massive bleeding. He tentatively opened his palm and clenched his fist, and found that there was no nerve damage, so it didn’t seem to affect him in battle too much.

He picked up the rune dagger that had just been thrown aside and held it in his hand. Qi Leren walked deeper into the basement.

Earlier, a little baby had been put on the rocking chair where the crazy lady was located. When he got close, he found that it wasn’t a live baby, but a doll. Its shape was rough and it seemed to be sewn with cloth. Qi Leren hesitated and picked it up.

“Ah–!” The doll let out a piercing scream, which scared Qi Leren, who threw it on the ground and stepped on it.

Under his foot the doll struggled to twist up, like a living creature. Qi Leren both wanted to and didn’t want to use the dagger to stab it down, and once stabbed by the dagger, the doll sent out a sad cry then ceased to move.

A small pool of black liquid seeped out of the doll’s body, like a pool of blood.

Qi Leren kicked it, and the doll finally stopped moving and looked like an ordinary toy.

It should be dead? Qi Leren was concerned. What evil thing was this, to give off such a strange and ominous feeling?

Qi Leren rummaged through the basement, and soon found a hidden compartment on the wall behind the rocking chair. After opening the hidden compartment, there was an embedded cabinet with two drawers. Qi Leren’s heart beat faster, and he had a wonderful premonition,but also an ominous premonition.

Opening the first drawer, there was a tin box, and the system prompt reappeared: “Obtained the sacrifice of the devil 3/6”.

When the tin box was opened, it was a bloody eyeball, which had already been covered in a layer of gray and looked cloudy and disgusting. Qi Leren immediately thought of the crazy lady’s empty right eye. Why was her eyeball here? Who dug it out?

Suddenly, there was a glimmer of light behind him, and Qi Leren turned his head and once again saw the phantom - the phantom that appeared every time he found the demon sacrifice.

The crazy lady who couldn’t see her own face lingered in the cellar and yelled at the cellar door: “Open the door! Let me out! You poor, rebellious slaves! Who allowed you to lock me up here! ”

Outside the cellar came the sound of a key unlocking. The crazy lady looked at the cellar door with delight. The cellar door above her head opened, and a basket containing food was lowered down by ropes and fell to the ground.

The crazy lady looked above her with bitter eyes: “Nina, have even you betrayed me?”

A trembling voice came from outside the cellar door: “Madam, I didn’t … It was the Master’s order to have you stay here.”

The crazy lady cried furiously, “I am your master! I am! Let me out! I order you! Let me out!”

Nina sobbed in a low voice outside the door, which could not be heard over the roar of the crazy lady. Soon the crazy lady was tired and sat down on the ground, staring overhead and looking at Nina.

After a long time, Nina, who had stopped crying, whispered, “Madam, I have to go… but I will forget to lock the cellar door. If you… want… I am willing to help you go back, I am willing… to do anything for you as long as you get better.”

The crazy lady looked at her in confusion and didn’t respond to her words. When the cellar door closed again, she suddenly giggled and slowly put her hand on her intact right eye…

“One more, one more, dear, I can… ha ha ha ha ha…”

The phantom gradually faded, and together with the whispered mad words, it went silent before Qi Leren’s eyes.

The eye in a bloody and rancid state in the tin box made Qi Leren feel sick. He wrapped it in cloth, stuffed the things into his own inventory, and prepared to hand them over to Dr. Lu for safekeeping. The demon power on the tin box made him feel uncomfortable, and the crazy phantom of Mrs. Sarah also made him feel uncomfortable.

There was another drawer in the dark room…

By dim candlelight, Qi Leren slowly opened the drawer: the reflection of metal first caught his eye, then a familiar trademark. With wide eyes, Qi Leren flung open the drawer and stared at the contents.

For a moment, he felt that he was dreaming. He must be dreaming, because only in dreams could such absurd things happen.

Here, he had actually found the origin of this nightmare.
