Chapter 403 The Ripper’s Feast
“If the thing that should have been buried comes out prematurely, the gods can only bury the entire world again at all costs, civilization, all living things, including you. , you will all become a part of it and wait for the arrival of the next era again."
This passage stayed in Milo's heart for a long time.
He repeatedly savored the intention of the god in the abyss when he said these words, from the enchanted forest, to the city of the ancient giants, to the tombs of Xin, and the Grand Canyon of Pans...< br>
……
…
Nanwei City.
It is still late at night on March 31st.
Everything is still in a state of silence.
On the foggy streets, there are hangover drunkards, lamplighters with ulterior motives, patrolling city guards and law enforcement officers.
There doesn't seem to be much difference from the past.
The difference is.
Both sides of the confession code of the canal were lit with candles. The candlelight turned the night fog into a warm and dim light curtain.
The mice, cats and tramps seemed to have reached some kind of reconciliation at this moment, and they enjoyed the sacrifices placed on both sides of the confession pier regardless of their past grudges.
Because tomorrow is the anniversary of Nanwei City’s victory over the Great Plague, and at the same time, it is also the first anniversary of the unexpected tragedy last year.
Of course, in the eyes of the general public, the incident that occurred at Penitentiary Pier on April 1 last year was an accident. The collapse of the bridge caused by heavy rain caused dozens of lives to be swept into the canal and eventually disappeared into the sea. .
Nanwei people have always been open-minded in their attitude towards death.
And this open-mindedness is still passed down even in a false and imposter world.
…
This is not Nanwei City, and the people in the city are not Nanwei people.
Everything is illusory and imitated.
But the scary thing is this, the extent of this imitation almost penetrates deep into the soul.
The people here clearly remember everything that happened in the past. They run for the living and remember the dead. In their self-awareness, they are part of Nanwei City.
……
When everyone thinks that they are true, perhaps the term fraud will no longer exist, but should be replaced.
...
But this replacement is not complete.
At least for now, it is incomplete.
Because as long as there is even one ant in this city that remains conscious, this scam may be seen through by eyes from above.
And Imnar’s job at the moment is to repair this uncertainty.
In its original design blueprint, all weak human souls can be easily imitated and replaced, just like what it has done in the past long years. No human being has ever been able to detect the relatives and relatives around them. Either my lover or my best friend is no longer who I am.
Of course there is such a situation.
When people find that the person they were most familiar with has changed their heart, such as the departure of a lover, the betrayal of a close friend, or the fall of a loved one, they will only blame it all on the fall of human nature. Or the injustice of reality.
But what they didn’t know was that behind that familiar face was actually Imnar.
Human beings are so complex yet so simple.
So simple that Imnar could easily replace any one of them.
After regaining its godhead, it has the power to replace an entire city.
......
However, when this kind of imitation and substitution was put into practice across a large area and hundreds of thousands of people, Imnar encountered some minor problems.
It calls it a fish that slipped through the net.
The first person to bear the brunt is naturally Milo Varrokan.
But this was something Imnar expected. It knew very well that it could not imitate this person's soul, because he was obviously beyond the scope of ordinary humans, and even beyond the scope of ordinary visionaries. category.
Imnar spent a long time getting in touch with and understanding this person.
Gradually, it discovered that Milo was far more complicated than it imagined. He was burdened with curses and guilt, and at the same time, he possessed a large amount of knowledge that did not belong to this civilization, or even to this world.
When it tried to make itself look like Milo, Imnar found that he could only imitate Milo's appearance, but inside, there was a emptiness.
Normally, the imitated creature would fall into a deep sleep, but on the Church Bridge, it only caused Milo to be in a trance for a moment, so two Milo appeared in the Prayer Square...
…
However, Milo has always been Imnar is the most difficult part to deal with in this layout. It is not in a hurry to solve this problem, but decided to put him at the end. Before that, he still has some subtle finishing work to complete, and that is Nan There are only a few souls left in Wei City that "refuse" to be imitated.
…
Enid Kent.
This is the most... innocent person that Imnar has ever encountered in his memory.
When Imnar found this human being, it did not rush to pull her into the sleeping world, but quietly observed her for a while. Because its huge creation needs correction and calibration, it needs to know why such a weak and mediocre soul has the will to refuse to be imitated. Imnar needs to mature his godhead power.
In Imnar's view, all the thoughts and behaviors of this woman named Enid fell short of the maturity that an adult human should have.
She is the only law enforcement officer among the thousands of law enforcement officers in the entire Nanwei City who always believes that one day she can clean up all the evil in the city.
It's so stupid and ridiculous.
But this will, which seemed extremely ridiculous no matter what the circumstances, was reasonable and normal in her own worldview.
In short, she didn’t think there was anything wrong with herself.
Just like her behavior of being born into a noble family but immersing herself in the law enforcement team, it is full of a persistence that is almost nonsense.
......
During the whole process of Enid's painstaking search for the information of the criminal investigation team and the files left by Theon in the past, and sneaking into the Durer Manor to investigate, in fact, Enid Munnar watched all this quietly from the corner.
It takes the form of a woman at a party, but its conversation with Enid is perfunctory throughout.
He transformed into a noble young man and knocked on Enid's door, but unexpectedly he received a severe beating.
...It never understood why such a fragile creature was not replaced.
In the law enforcement team of Nanwei City, there are many people who are tougher and more mature than her, but those people did not make any resistance or struggle when faced with the imitation rules.
Imnar thought he had been patient enough, but in the end he still couldn't find the key to the problem.
This caused a human emotion called irritability to grow in its heart.
At the moment when he realized that he had emotional fluctuations, Imnar felt...
“It’s time to stop.”
It woke up. Come over and understand that you should not get entangled in some minor issues at such a critical period. As long as this layout can be perfectly executed, then it will have plenty of time to find loopholes in the rules. At worst, it will choose another city as an experiment. If one object doesn't work, then two, three or ten.
...
So, in the Duler Manor.
Imnar decided to solve this little trouble first.
All that was needed was simply to put Enid into a deep sleep.
Then, another Enid will appear in this world...
But just when it was about to pull Enid out of this imitative world...
...
"Whoop!!!"
Dürer Manor ushered in A strong wind.
The strong wind blew out all the candlesticks in the manor, and even the closed doors and windows were pushed open with great force...
Then, at the banquet where there was no light and no one could see their fingers, everyone began to feel cramps in their stomachs. Then, everyone, whether they were gentlemen or ladies, began to vomit and have diarrhea.
For a time, all kinds of indescribable horrible smells filled the entire banquet hall.
"Wine...there is something wrong with these wines!"
"Poisonous...the wine is poisonous...in the mouth area!!!"
"Damn..."< br>
"Oh my God..."
"Who is grabbing my skirt, get out of the way!! It's coming out!!!"
In the darkness, there were all kinds of clattering and crackling sounds. The indescribable movement made people's scalp numb.
But this is just the beginning of the nightmare.
……
On the open window sill of the hall, a shadow filled with thick black smoke jumped in.
Pinching his nose with one hand, he swayed from side to side on the narrow staircase handrail like a tightrope walker, gazing at the wonderful picture under the hall with great satisfaction.
The stench filled the air.
Even in such an unbearable environment, he still took the time to light a cigarette and hold it in his mouth.
Because the show is still going backwards.
...
The black shadow sat down on the handrail of the spiral staircase, pinched the dial of the watch to count the time, and said to himself:
"Well...calculate it by time. If so, it should have taken effect. This is a Q-stimulating drug that only members of the Royal City of Rodel are eligible to enjoy. It will be easier for you..."
At this time, those in the hall who were suffering from abdominal cramps The nobles, whose legs were weak and had no strength to escape from this disaster place, began to have other strange physiological reactions in their bodies.
As a result, an elegant noble banquet turned into a farce of promiscuity in a cesspool.
...
And the black shadow, as if he had made some great contribution, stood up on the handrail of the spiral staircase above the atrium, spread his hands, and announced his arrival loudly:< br>
“Dear noble friends!”
“Please enjoy the wonderful feast that the Ripper has presented to you!!!”
……
"The Ripper?!"
"It's that person! He poisoned us!! Ugh..."
"Who is it! Don't move! Don't pull my pants, damn it. Something!"
"Who killed him! Someone kill him!"
"{}%$#%^^$@… …”
Roaring, wailing, and all kinds of indescribable sounds instantly exploded in the hall.
......
"Resentment is the source of strength..."
The shadow man still maintains the gesture of raising his hands high, just like the new County Council Chairman Max ·Just like the day he was sworn in, Johnson raised his hands and enjoyed the heartfelt or unwilling applause of everyone.
However, what makes Heiying feel weird is.
The expected feeling of surge in power did not appear.
The resentful souls below the hall did not make the black smoke on his body thicker.
No change at all...
...
His expression changed from proud at first, to confusion, then to shock, and finally to confusion.
"What's wrong with this?"
…
At this time, a familiar voice came from behind him.
The other party tugged at his trouser leg and said coldly:
"You, get down here."
