Apostle of Cthulhu

Chapter 99 Nidhogg

After being tossed around by Waf for a while and trying to do shooting training with different guns, Si Wei felt that his shooting accuracy had improved. After all, Waf helped him correct his shooting movements from time to time, and how to use muscles correctly when shooting, which was also a great benefit to him. I just don’t know why Waf knows so much, but why he still can’t shoot accurately.

According to his own explanation, it is because people in this world always have things they are good at and things they are not good at, just like a lame man who knows how to run, he can never exceed the speed of a normal person...except for those who jump a few meters on one foot.

Before Si Wei left, Waf mentioned to him, "By the way, the resident of Room 666 seems to have been waiting for you. You can go see him when you are free."

Waiting for me? Another acquaintance of the original owner?

"I understand." Si Wei replied and left Room 203.

On the stairs, he began to think about some things related to Balem Apartment. A landlord who sets strange rules, a fortune teller, an inventor, and a history professor who studies R'lyeh culture... this is really a wonderful combination.

And there is another resident in Room 666 who has been waiting for him, and I don't know why...

Thinking about these questions that have never been answered, Si Wei has come to the door of Room 666 on the sixth floor.

There are only two rooms on the sixth floor, one is Si Wei's, and the other is the resident of Room 666.

The door of Room 666 is a wooden door with strange reliefs carved on it. The reliefs are lifelike, but people can't clearly recognize the patterns on it.

Those reliefs are wild and unrestrained, and they don't look like the products that human artists would carve.

Si Wei knocked on the door gently.

Thump, thump, thump.

But no one responded. Everything around was extremely quiet. There was no noisy noise outside the window, only steam rising straight up.

Is there no one there? Si Wei was a little confused and lowered his head, but found something wrong. There was a gap between the door and the door frame that was not easily noticed.

This door was not closed.

Rather than the possibility that the tenant forgot to close the door when he went out, Si Wei was more inclined to believe that the other party deliberately left this gap for him. After all, Wafu said that the other party had been waiting for him "all the time".

Putting his hand on the door handle, Si Wei slowly opened the door and searched for all possible information with his vision.

Until the door was completely opened, there was no suspicious or dangerous situation.

The living room of Room 666 was similar to Si Wei's living room. It was clean and tidy. Some books were piled on the coffee table. It was estimated that the tenant did not put them away and wanted to continue reading them later.

Si Wei walked into the entrance hall, and a very strange smell entered his nose. It was not unpleasant or pungent, giving people a very strange feeling, but surprisingly comfortable.

"Hello," Si Wei did not rush into the living room, but stood at the entrance and asked, "Is anyone there? I'm Si Wei."

No one responded, and there was no sound in the whole room except for his own breathing.

Si Wei felt strange and walked into the living room and came to the sofa.

At this time, he suddenly found that there was a very large glass box in the living room. There was a warm lamp hanging on the top that could provide constant temperature. Some paper was padding at the bottom of the glass box, and there were some branches and leaves simulating the wild environment. It looked like a constant temperature box for some pets.

The length, width and height of the glass box did not seem to be used for breeding small animals. Maybe even Si Wei could fit in it, maybe iguanas, snakes or even tarantulas.

Just as Si Wei was studying how big an animal this incubator could accommodate, a voice rang in the room, "What are you doing?"

The voice was steady and magnetic. Si Wei turned around and subconsciously looked up.

But he did not see anyone.

"You're looking at the wrong place. It's here."

Si Wei followed the source of the sound and looked at the distant window. There was a long object crawling there, staring at him with its narrow eyes.

It was a snake. Si Wei couldn't confirm its species, but its diameter was more than three centimeters, and its total length might even reach more than four meters!

It was black in color, but covered with some twisted golden stripes. The beautiful snake scales reflected the light of the electric lamp, shining brightly, and it was somewhat similar to the shining scale snake in Si Wei's memory.

"Uh..." Si Wei did not panic, but was slightly surprised. He looked at the snake that showed no hostility or malice towards him and said, "Are you talking to me?"

The snake raised its head, spitting out its tongue, with some doubt in its eyes, "You... are Si Wei? No... you are not Si Wei..."

Si Wei raised his eyebrows, thinking that this guy might know something, "I am Si Wei, there is no doubt about that."

"But that's not right! Your soul is not Si Wei, who are you!" Si Wei keenly captured the strong hostility. The giant snake crawled on the ground and crawled towards Si Wei, "If you tell the truth, maybe I can spare your life."

Now is not the time to entangle why this guy is talking. Si Wei quickly started his brain and came to the right conclusion in an instant, "If you have also witnessed the 'unknown' creature, then you should understand that some things are not what I want to promote."

Hearing this, the giant snake stopped moving.

It looked at Si Wei with incredible eyes, as if questioning him.

Seeing its reaction, Si Wei also breathed a sigh of relief briefly and continued: "I am Si Wei, there is no doubt about that, but I am not Professor Si Wei at the same time. I was summoned from another world by the 'unknown' and replaced the body of Professor Si Wei, and he himself... probably died in the face of the 'unknown'."

"How could this happen..." The giant snake's voice trembled. The breath on Si Wei's body would not deceive it. It was indeed the real Si Wei, but the soul was completely different.

The only explanation was... Si Wei was telling the truth.

Si Wei was very happy to see that the giant snake could calm down and think about his words instead of biting him without saying a word. Regardless of whether this giant snake was poisonous or not, with its python-like body, it could strangle him to death.

"So... what is your relationship with the original Professor Siwei?" Siwei asked tentatively, "Did he raise you?"

The giant snake denied Siwei's statement, "No, my master is not him, I just have a good relationship with him. You don't look like an ordinary person. Ordinary people would probably be scared to pee their pants when they see me for the first time, right?"

Siwei replied: "It's okay. After all, I have seen more terrifying fallen people. In comparison, normal creatures like you are much cuter."

Hearing this, the giant snake's trembling voice calmed down a little, "Interesting, anyway, people can't be resurrected after death, so I will treat you as a new friend. Your name is also Siwei, right?"

"Yes, it's a coincidence, maybe this is also a miracle created by the 'unknown'?"

The giant snake sighed, "Since you were not kicked out by Eugene, it means that you are still qualified to continue living in the Balem Apartment. Then let me introduce myself... My name was given to me by a woman, Nidhogg."
