Chapter 489 The Destroyer


Chapter 489 The Destroyer

Daisy in the Abyss...

Hmm——

“It can only be said that fortunately this is an abyss.”

Milo saw Daisy's wrinkled, bark-like face from a long distance away.

There was also the figure standing behind her, a figure who was much taller than her but whose skin also looked like a mummy.

The figure was much stronger than Milo remembered. He was wearing the robe of a church deacon and a hood that covered half of his face.

It is Dillashaw, the servant of God.

It’s just that now he no longer seems to be the divine servant of the Golden Rule, because it can be seen on the exposed forearm skin under the torn sleeves of the robe that the totem of the Golden Tree has been erased. What remains are the rough marks of burns.

Milo has never understood how the chaos in the abyss works, but he believes that apart from those things that are purely reorganized and imagined from the contents of his memory, the rest have a certain metaphorical function. of.

The church in front of us no longer has the splendor of the state religion. The church is dilapidated, the believers are sinking, and even the leaders have given up on serving the Golden Rule.

……

Arthropod insects grew out of the eye sockets.

“Does it mean there is something wrong with the thinking eye?”

Milo stood on the edge of the altar and said to himself.

He remembered the Knights of the Temple who were projected from the dreamland not long ago. The woman known as the Blade said some obscure words before she died. She said that the eye of thinking cannot stay awake. world, that would have dire consequences.

Milo's previous understanding of this sentence was based on the idea provided by Daisy earlier.

Because of the three things of the church that the Monsis School covets - Mego, the Son of Death, the Eye of Thinking, and the more obscure "Enlightenment of the Moon".

Milo thinks that maybe the reason why the Knights in the Dreamland want to take back the Thinking Eye is to prevent the Monsis School from snatching it.

But the picture in front of him now caused him to uncontrollably think about another possibility - the golden tree in the real world is no longer there. Without the shadow of the golden tree, is there also a person whose thinking eye is covered by this? Possibility of world corruption?

However, no one can discuss these contents with Milo for the time being.

Now there is only a furball beside him who wants to take a bite of everything he sees.

While Milo was in a trance, he found that the believers around him who were heading towards the worship pit in a daze had stopped, and everyone was focusing on Milo and Wen. On Diego.

Immediately afterwards, a creature that looked like a worm, but with countless human limbs attached to its body crawled out of the huge underground hole where the golden tree once lived.

That can be regarded as one of Milo's "acquaintances". It is the upper-level independent race creature that has lived in the worship pit for countless years. It gnawed all the roots of the golden tree after it was burned, and was finally purified into Another level of special life form.

But Milo has only seen the opponent in his normal "worm" form, and like this...

The body of this bug is very huge.

The width of the torso occupies almost half of the entire bottomless worship pit, so in comparison, the human limbs, arms or thighs "attached" to its surface appear very Slender and densely packed together, from a distance it looks like floating fluff growing on its body...

In the real world, it has been convinced by Milo, and even I don't even have the guts to show my face.

But everything in the abyss seems to be filled with excessive malice that has nowhere to vent. At this moment, all the creatures in the unseen land look at Milo in such a twisted way.

“There is no advice to tell me what to do next.”

Milo noticed the creature worshiping the pit from a distance. movement.

But as soon as he mentioned it casually, the Wendigo immediately used his two front paws to dig wildly on the dust on the ground, and quickly removed the piece of ground at Milo's feet. After the dust was removed, a few scarlet claw marks and the advice contained in them were revealed——

"Slaughter will be useful next".

“Does this mean that the task of destroying the world has been transferred to my hands?”

Milo was a little surprised.

He didn’t know who had left the advice here, but at least before he encountered this advice, he thought that the owner of the advice was providing a kind of well-intentioned guidance, until this As soon as the sentence "The next massacre will be very useful" appeared, Milo began to doubt the purpose of the admonishment itself. "Isn't the act of massacre and annihilation a crazy act only done after being eroded by the abyss? Does he want to turn me into what I was before the Wendigo?"

Milo looked at the Wendigo in confusion.

The latter blinked his big purple eyes with a confused look on his face. It was obvious that he did not understand what Milo was talking about.

"Hey, if I had known better, I would have let that initial humanity stay in your mother's belly for a little longer. It seems that premature birth has a serious impact on your IQ."

Milo sighed. .

Then he pulled out the hunter's sickle with a missing corner of the blade from behind.

Because the current situation seems to be no longer up to him to make a choice. These creatures in the Unseen Land, including the Thinking Eye Daisy and the Servant of God Dillashaw, have no intention of talking to Milo. It may even be that they have lost their ability to communicate normally, and what controls their bodies at the moment is the arthropod with tentacles shaking in their eye sockets.

And when all the believers who were slowly moving forward in a long line turned around and focused their attention on Milo, Milo was among the worshipers who were even worse than Ikem. Among the countless faces that were even more pale and haggard, I saw many familiar faces.

Including everyone from the law enforcement agency - Rebecca, Enid, Johnny, Mr. Covington from the cafeteria, etc...

All of them have dull faces, their clothes are in tatters, and there are some wriggling insect eggs attached to their skin. Through the translucent egg shell, you can roughly see an arthropod turning its body inside...< br>
Further forward, Milo saw Finn, Kang, and Emma in the same state.

The clothes and attire they wore all appeared in Milo's real-life memory, but they were so dilapidated at this moment that they looked like they had been eroded by the years.

It is different from the Emma Enid whose temperament changed drastically after she stepped into the abyss last time.

In this abyss world, Milo has obviously lost them and everyone.

...

"Click..."

The long handle of the sickle in Milo's hand stretched out.

The hot fire surging from the cracks in the skin of his arm flowed along the long handle to the blade, completely igniting the entire scythe.

And for some reason, the Wendigo, which had been performing a massacre mission before, now showed a timid and fearful expression. It curled up its body and rolled to a position far behind Milo, where it found a dark place. He hid in the corner.

In this extremely bad and terrifying composition in front of it, what makes it feel afraid is not the arthropods squirming in the eye sockets, nor the superior race with half of its body exposed in the worship pit, but Milo back view.

......

At this moment, no one knows what changes have occurred in Milo's inner world.

But in a certain corner of the deepest part of the abyss.

There is a ragged and broken soul squatting on the ground, constantly scratching the ground with its slender fingers, making sharp and harsh friction sounds and dark green firelight. With every friction, its fingers will look like flowers. Several smaller fingers bloomed in the same way, and then more slender fingers bloomed on these little fingers again...

It seemed to have suffered some kind of double-layered horrific torture of both spirit and body. While it was beyond recognition, there was a look in its eyes. Also filled with endless madness, he repeatedly murmured some obscure words:

"Aha...ha!...This is inevitable..."

"Since you have chosen to retain your humanity, ...There is no way to escape the erosion of the abyss..."

"Is that true? ...Aha..."

"You banished me to the abyss...Why have you sunk here now?..."

"Aha..."

"Aha..."

"It hurts Ah...my soul..."

"...it really hurts..."
