Volume 13: The Son of Darkness, the Lord of the Netherworld, the Happy One Chapter 32 The Cause of the Change
After saying this, the owner of the house stopped talking. If he hadn't replied earlier, Lu Mei would have thought that there was no one in the house.
The other party's house was obviously not simple. The light from that lamp also emitted some repels thoughts.
I'm afraid that just like the zombies before, their broken mental state makes it impossible to get close in front of this light.
In other words, we don't know whether the light was created by the people in this room or obtained from somewhere else.
Lu Mei did not continue to linger at the other party's door, but turned and left.
The fact that the other party did not turn into a zombie in this area meant that he still had some spirit in his heart, and he repeatedly urged me to leave quickly.
No matter what, the other party is a well-intentioned person. In this case, it is better not to disturb them if possible.
Lu Mei walked, looking for the lights in the city.
At this time, there were zombies hiding in the streets, alleys, and corners of the rooms.
These zombies usually stay in one place, as if they are truly dead, but in fact, they have given up thinking.
Their mental state is so bad that it is reflected in their bodies, which have already died.
The inability to die brought them unprecedented mental torture. In this eternal land, they could not see hope and could only continue to be numb.
Only with the arrival of outsiders can this kind of novelty arouse more interest in them.
And when the outsiders suffer big enough changes here, their bodies will be constantly eroded by the time worms in the process.
Especially the fatal injuries that are enough to cause death will seriously erode the outsiders, and they will eventually be unable to leave here no matter what.
When the local residents get tired of playing with you, your body will be full of holes and your mind will have suffered a huge blow. Gradually, you will become numb, like a zombie, staying in one place without making any movement, waiting for the next outsider to come.
Lu Mei's arrival stimulated them, and they jumped up immediately.
Except for the first zombie killed, Lu Mei would only kill them briefly afterwards.
Their bodies lie on the ground, and they will be "resurrected" soon.
Each death is just a matter of crushing them.
But their current situation is like a piece of rotten meat that has already been torn into pieces. Every death is just the same as chopping the meat into pieces again.
Meat, still that rotten piece of meat.
Lu Mei relaxed her pace, tried hard to sense the situation around her, and finally found the gate of the cult not far away.
And here, it's different from other places.
Most other places in the city were filled with zombies, but here, Lu Mei saw another kind of monster, the insect man.
These cult members were all wearing gorgeous robes. If you looked closely, you could see that the robes were all covered with insect patterns, and those inside the robes no longer had human form.
It is said that in the early years, most members of the cult chose to give up their human bodies.
But with the birth of the first batch of ghost humans, they were born in the appearance of humans and had a stronger sense of identification with humans.
Therefore, in order to spread their teachings, even those members of the sect who can change their body shapes will maintain their human appearance.
Until now, everything seemed like a reincarnation, and these cult members had turned into monsters again.
Under the robe is a large blue-grey bug. (The image on the right is a reference image from the game Slay the Spire)
The big insect has several tentacles on its head, and on both sides of its robe, there are long, soft tentacles extending out.
The moment it saw Lu Mei, the tentacles on its head trembled slightly, and then immediately moved.
Although it was just a bug, it was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, it had arrived in front of Lu Mei.
Then the tentacles attacked Lu Mei. The sticky tentacles seemed to have the power to stick to the space.
Time and space are one. When time stagnates, space will naturally be affected as well.
It is only because it is only affected by the time realm, and not truly turned into the time realm, that it is formed. Now, time has stagnated and humans have also been affected, but this influence is only half.
The same is true for space. The people of this cult are able to make up for this half and thus achieve the effect of truly stopping time.
It’s not that the insect cultists are fast, but in other places, speed has no meaning.
After all, distance/time is speed, and when time is disturbed, speed is naturally meaningless.
However, because there was a ritual field next to Lu Mei, although the effect of this ritual field could not eliminate the interference of the time world, it also made the time he completed have no effect.
Therefore, this insect cultist suddenly appeared beside him instead of suddenly killing him.
Lu Mei was naturally not afraid. She just lightly tapped and the technique was completed. At this moment, the insect had fallen into a dream.
Lu Mei's bodies in different layers do not have any obvious attributes.
Because her original body of a spiritual beast was condensed with the help of Lu Bai, and it does not have the attributes of those challengers.
It is more like a source beast born locally, so the body of each realm has the abilities of each realm.
The body of a beast from the spiritual world has the ability to control the channels to the spiritual world.
The body of the dream world source beast has the ability to control dreams.
The body of the anchor world source beast is the ability to pull out the anchor and anchor mentioned before.
As for the fate body, in addition to a few predictive abilities, it can also hide its own destiny and interfere with others finding itself.
Otherwise, Lu Mei might not have the free time to deal with the affairs of the Insect Cult.
She quietly killed the insect cultist who had sunk into the dream, used the power of pulling the anchor to completely kill , and then continued to sneak into the cult.
The confusion of the dream enveloped her, and she quickly entered it to collect information about these cult members.
Compared to the civilians, the condition of these cult members is much better.
Firstly, they transform themselves into insects and can resist and utilize this time stagnation to a limited extent.
Secondly, the other civilians have lost hope, so they can only stay there and have their psychic abilities constantly erased, but they still have hope.
The bug ritual is a super ritual they developed for immortality.
The original purpose was to make one's body no longer affected by time and thus gain eternal life.
However, at the moment when the ceremony was taking place, it was greatly disturbed.
The time realms suddenly came together, and the time worms they created completely changed and merged into this area, eventually becoming what it is now.
Although they are the instigators, they are also victims.
Ever since the changes began, they have been trying to find a way to lift the ritual and return to normal.
