Bizarre Detective Agency

   Chapter 1159 Ninety-seven. Sweet Home

The    halo faded, and the dilapidated exterior wall of the longhouse resurfaced.

  Lu Li took the lantern and walked into the dark corridor with no light.

   Darkness swallowed his outline.

Walking through the uneven corridor with no door in the room, stepping on the dark and dirty blocks covering the floor formed by debris, dust and rain through weathering, solidification and muddy wandering, Lu Li entered the detective agency without a door. The desks, bookcases, and beds have long been removed by the survivors to make fires, showing the empty room in front of you. Except for the outline, it is difficult to find the memory of the past.

   "It wasn't like that before, was it?" whispered the Swamp Mother.

"Um."

   "You can put it back as it was."

   "No need."

   "It's necessary..." The Swamp Mother didn't think so: "The land of light belongs to you and me, and the detective society is visited and commemorated by future residents."

  Lu Li's gaze fell to the broken flowerpot under the window sill, and he didn't refuse.

  The Will of the Swamp Mother will appear in the camp in real time. The craftsmen then left the school building, escorted by the Twisted Cultists to the Sailors Quarter.

   Nothing excited them more than the restoration of the "Legendary Detective Agency", and they ran down from the camp panting before Lu Li left the Sailors Quarter.

  Lu Li stayed for a while to tell these excited artisans about furniture shapes and placement, as well as colors.

They started cleaning the floors, measuring furniture, window and door frames, and even the Swamp Mother got involved, helping them bring message after message back to the camp and let the other side start working on it, and even the Wiener dungeon was busy with the Detective Agency rebuild. , look for matching furniture paints.

   A bucket of black sewage was brushed down and sent out of the longhouse and poured into the sewer. Those craftsmen who couldn't squeeze into the detective's agency had to clear the gallery, other rooms, or exterior walls.

  The construction in full swing seems to bring back the past.

  The Twisted Shadow will arrive soon, but it has nothing to do with the renovation of the detective agency. He passed by here and invited Lu Li to the shipwreck area.

  The bat monsters of Silent Hill are still hovering in the sky, but they are less than the previous days, and they turn a blind eye to the Twisted Order below.

   But the distorted shadow told Lu Li that they stole a lot of prey that originally belonged to the camp.

  Twenty minutes later, on the third floor terrace of the restaurant overlooking the shipwreck area at Luli Station.

  The old ships that fell into the block form a steel forest, reminiscent of the stargazing pie of the old days. The weird people who live there don't like light, hide in sunken ships and dwellings to rest, and wait until night falls before going out to hunt.

   "There are many strange leaders in the shipwreck area." The Twisted Shadow told the news that the believers had inquired about in the past two days.

   "Is it hard to deal with?"

   "No, but it's very troublesome... I... I have asked believers to test, they have a clear understanding of what happens in the outside world. Maybe they used to be contradictory, but they have been condensed by the destruction of the vortex."

  Ability God is stronger than pollution and growth, and the weird leader represents the strength of the individual. Usually the evil **** is stronger than the weird leader, but it is difficult to compare the real strength - some alien gods are like "tree whisperers", and some weird leaders are like "dreamers".

   "They come from the deep sea?" Lu Li asked.

   "Yes...but I can't make them tremble under my power."

   The distorted shadow gifted by the **** of the deep sea is on the way to become the "new **** of the deep sea", but he is only a new **** after all, and it is difficult to drive the ocean to be weird.

   "What if you add this."

  Lu Li took the Doomsday Apocalypse chess piece from his pocket and handed it to the twisted figure.

   "Is this the treasure of power-enhancing you said?"

"Um."

   "What if I take it away..."

   "It's just not going to happen for a while."

   Losing Doomsday Humanity will drop back to 0.5, but it's not a problem if it only lasts a few minutes or less.

  The distorted shadow took over the doomsday revelation book, and was enveloped by an obscure aura, formed at the foot of the sea, lifted him up, floated to the wreck area, stopped over the edge to release its breath wantonly, declared sovereignty, and seemed to be transformed into a stalwart silhouette in a trance.

   On the other hand, Lu Li's situation was worse than he thought.

   All along, Lu Li, who is under the increase of Doomsday Apocalypse, has also passively raised his threshold. When the boost disappears, the threshold also reverts to its original state.

   It was like the instinct to endure the cold of minus 20 degrees, which became minus 40 degrees with the increase of the Doomsday Apocalypse, but when the Doomsday Apocalypse was lost, the minus 20 degrees made Lu Li unbearable.

  For example, at this moment, in addition to the physical weakness and the no longer abundant spirit, the despair and isolation without humanity suddenly washed away Lu Li's mind, wrapped him, and dragged him into the abyss-like deep quagmire...

   If it wasn't for the Swamp Mother calling the Twisted Shadow back and returning the Doomsday Apocalypse, Lu Li would have fallen into a low sanity syndrome.

   The power of body and mind reappeared, the delirium faded like a tide, and Lu Li's back straightened.

"what's the result?"

  Lu Li's body trembled slightly because he didn't escape from the terrifying aftertaste.

   "Maybe some weirdos can be persuaded to join the Twisted Order." Twisted Shadow replied.

  The next situation becomes much simpler: restore Lu Li's basic humanity to 1, and then the distorted shadow can confuse the shipwreck area with the doomsday apocalypse.

   In order to save time, the twisted figure let the twisted believers spread out to find, and prepared to hunt a strange leader for Lu Li to recover.

   Looking at the elm forest in the north, it seems that you can see the silent hills in the depths. Lu Li turned and left the terrace.

   "Have you communicated the consciousness of the ember district?"

   On the way back, Lu Li, who was gradually recovering, asked the mother of the swamp.

   "It's rejecting me, resisting the outside world, and giving it some time might make it easier."

   "I will keep the Twisted Cultists away from the embers."

   Didn't take a long detour through the Sailors Quarter, and Lu Li went straight back to the camp.

   A box of exorcist badges brought back by merchant Anthony is on the desk.

  Lu Li opened the wooden box to reveal the stacked badges inside.

   The emblems of the dungeons are meticulously reproduced as intricate and delicate as works of art: the edges of the silver-gray round emblem, the cobweb-like hollowed-out lines overlap and converge to form the outline of an eye in the middle.

  The copper color with condensed eyes indicates that the badge rank is an exorcist.

  Lu Li picked up the wooden box and walked out.

   "Are you going to give them the badge now?" asked the Swamp Mother strangely.

"Um."

   "The awarding of the emblem should be a ceremony, which is an honor for them..."

  The Swamp Mother stopped Lu Li from directing, and selected the date of granting the emblem as the day when the Land of Light was recaptured.

   In the evening, the Twisted Shadow and its followers returned, with their strange leader on the verge of death.

  It and other weirdness in the slaughterhouse restored Lu Li's basic humanity to nearly three copies, and then the distorted figure took away the doomsday apocalypse.

   In the early morning of the next day, Lu Li went to the shipwreck area. After passing through the Sailors block under construction, the longhouse was no longer dilapidated, revealing some old shadows.

   Maybe one day in the future, he and Anna can live here.

just like before.
