Dominate the Treacherous Realm

　　 Although it is narrow and unobstructed, there are too many books and materials, so it is very difficult to search aimlessly.

　　 Jenkins doesn't even know what he should be looking for, so he can only search everywhere. He hoped that the residents here would also have the good habit of writing diaries, and then under the guidance of chocolate, they were pleasantly surprised to find that under the "Exploration of Ancient Witchcraft" and "Introduction to Modern Occult Studies", the diaries were really pressed.

　　 The handwriting in the diary is the same as the handwriting on the false occult materials, and it can be considered as the owner of the room. Jenkins checked it roughly. He thought it was just an ordinary person's account of trivial life, but he didn't expect to find something extraordinary.

　　 The name of the owner here is Billy Schultz, male, 25 years old. He was originally a reporter for a newspaper, so Jenkins had some impressions of this name, but since mid-December last year, he gave up his job and devoted himself to studying witchcraft and supernatural powers.

　　The reason for this is the following text:

　　【In a trance, I received a mysterious revelation. Unspeakable whispers and whispers often appeared in my ears. When I dreamed back at midnight, the magical visions and terrible sights tortured me, but they surprised and excited me. I think I got the revelation, it's time to change my life. 】

　　 This is a very typical behavior of being tempted by evil gods or other indescribable creatures to change their lives and study illegal rituals and spells. Even this passage written by Billy Schultz, Jenkins has seen no less than ten similar ones in church materials.

　　 But he has never heard of mortals who are induced by those terrible existences, will delve into these fake information that seems to be obtained from nowhere. Heretic gods and indescribable evil things will bestow some simple power and blasphemous knowledge on humble mortals, and it is absolutely impossible for them to study from scratch.

　　 Mortals are terrified and longing to be extraordinary. In the hands of illegal small bookstores, boring aristocratic women, or village witches, there are indeed many deceptive things. Ordinary people have no way to distinguish between the true and false. This reporter obviously didn't get any genuine products.

　　 "Who is it that tempted him? Could it be that a deity with a lie priest wants to make a joke with him...Oh, the lie priest is with me."

　　 Jenkins can't imagine the answer.

The 　　 diary shows that the reporter was alive until a week ago, and at the end of the diary there is an unclear sentence:

　　【I see, I'm here. 】

　　 No words have been written on the paper since then, obviously Billy Schultz never came back. But he shouldn't be the man in Room 4 just now. Judging from the contents of the diary, Billy Schultz was only obsessed with such research, but he did not show the desire to kill or the obsession with corpses.

　　 In addition to being affected by an unknown existence and changing his life, the diary also occasionally described some things that happened around him. But most of them complained that the neighbors disturbed his life, or the landlord of the apartment refused to allow a few days of room money-lost his job and spent a lot of money to get a bunch of strange things, he can not even maintain his daily expenses.

　　 Jenkins is very interested in his description of the neighbors, among which the description of the landlord's family on the first floor is:

　　 [Extremely stingy, God, I have never seen such a stingy family. Men are yes, women are yes, so are the three children. There must be greedy liquid flowing in their blood vessels, and their bodies are filled with desire for golden pounds...]

　　 Schultz is very dissatisfied with his place of residence, and has stated in his diary many times that once the research is successful, he will move out immediately.

　　 has this description of the family facing the stairs:

　　【The Leviathan family is the most funny and ridiculous family I have ever seen, the bald middle-aged man, the fat woman, and the nasty little boy. Damn, luckily they don't live next door to me, as long as I see them, I feel the desire to vomit. 】

　　 The dissatisfaction with the Leviathan family should be due to a long time ago, which can be seen in the text. But Jenkins couldn't find other diaries, so he didn't know where the grievances between the two sides began.

　　The neighbor in room two to the left of Leviathan is a middle-aged man, Howard Link, who lives alone, and his evaluation is full of resentment:

　　 [Damn dwarf, what are you going to do in and out every night? This **** guy, I curse you! 】

　　 The young reporter's grievances towards his neighbors did not start after he became obsessed with occult studies. From the first page of his diary, he kept complaining.

　　 complained about my boss, complained about colleagues in the newspaper, complained about my neighbors, complained about everything that I can complain about.

　　 And he had the least description of the neighbor on his right, that is, the neighbor who stored the body, and Jenkins could not even find a complete paragraph.

　　 But judging from the occasional details, the young reporter thinks that the man is a kind and friendly person, but his professional habits allow him to observe more carefully than ordinary people.

　　 [Like the mental patient I have reported] [His eyes are very strange and a bit scary] [I think this is a dangerous person, but it is better not to point it out]

　　 These are the only paragraphs, and according to his description of the appearance of the neighbor Mr. Brown, it is obvious that he is the man who checked the body just now.

　　 "Hiding the body in your own room? This is really interesting."

　　 So far, things that happened in this two-story apartment have gradually become more eye-catching. From the clues obtained, Mrs. Cooper and the children living on the first floor were killed by Brown in Room 4 on the second floor, and the corpse was made into specimens and hidden in the closet. The reporter Schultz in Room 3 on the second floor was "inspired" by an unknown existence to study occult spontaneously a month ago. Although his research direction was wrong, Schultz disappeared a week ago, leaving behind a notebook. It was discovered by Jenkins who came to collect the account.

　　 As for the family in room one and the lonely person in room two, although there is no clue as to where they are going, there is obviously something wrong.

　　PS: I will add a change at the beginning of next month, and I will offer a reward tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.

Chapter 767 Chapter Seven Hundred and Fifty Two The Final Direction

　　 "In other words, it was the resident Brown in Room 4 who killed you and hid your body?"

　　 Jenkins asked the evil spirit beside him.

　　 The evil spirit nodded slightly. It now looked more human than when it first appeared, and the abnormality of the body had disappeared obviously. Jenkins didn't know if this was because the woman saw hope of revenge, or because Jenkins promised to bury her children.

　　 In fact, the more important reason is to keep talking with a good god.

　　 Knowing the name and general shape of the murderer, of course, has extraordinary significance for hunting him down. So Jenkins asked Mrs. Cooper again if she could destroy it now, but the soul refused again.

　　 It floated out of the door, and passed through room two to the door of Leviathan's house in room one. This door is facing the stairs, and there is no nameplate but only a children's drawing. If it hadn't found information about the owner of the room in the diary, Jenkins wouldn't even know what their last name was.

　　 The door of the room was still locked, so this time it was Mrs. Cooper's spirit who helped him open the door from the inside.

　　 Since the narrow room is shared by three people, the room is more crowded than the reporter's room just now. Of course, the family of three were not at home at this time. Jenkins immediately smelled a rotten smell after pushing the door open, and then saw a rice bowl full of fish soup on the table.

The food inside 　　 was completely rotten, and I couldn't smell it with the door closed. After opening the door, I walked two steps inward, and I couldn't even stand the chocolate.

　　 "This family hasn't come back for a long time."

　　 This is his preliminary judgment.

　　 still looked for the diary as usual, but couldn't find it. This also makes sense, because the young reporter believes that this family is a [illiterate hillbilly].

　　 Although there is no diary, Jenkins has found some strange paintings that are exactly the same as the one posted on the door. These are the works of this little boy. They are hidden under the mattress, in the gap between the closet and the wall. There are even two pieces rolled into a thin tube and stuffed into the gap between the gas pipe and the wall.

　　 There is definitely something wrong with the boy's spirit, even Jenkins feels uncomfortable seeing the seven paintings in his hand. The content of the painting is normal, but the combination of weird colors, distorted lines and distorted characters makes any ordinary person really spit it out with a strong sense of nausea.

　　 "It's indeed an ordinary painting, it's really amazing."

　　 Jenkins swept his eyes and did not want to observe again, so he buckled the paper on the table and turned his head to ask Mrs. Cooper:

　　 "Now that I have found the name and general appearance of your enemy, what else do you need me to do?"

　　 The evil spirit pointed to the painting on the table, and his face showed an expression of pleading that only the living can have.

　　 The man sighed:

"Which one?"

　　 The soul wants Jenkins to observe the simplest composition. In this picture, there are ten matchstick-like figures, and the environment where these figures are located is a forest, at least Jenkins thinks so.

　　 "What do you mean?"

　　 "Oh...oh oh..."

　　 She points to one of the images of a suspected woman, and then points to herself.

"This is you?"

　　 Jenkins asked, and the spirit nodded immediately.

　　 He realized the meaning of this painting after a few seconds, because there are ten people living in this house: the woman and three children downstairs, the three people in room one, and the bachelor in three rooms. It happens to be ten people in total, which is not wrong.

　　 Thinking of this, he realized a question that had been overlooked for a long time: Since Mrs. Cooper on the first floor had only three children, who was the fourth child's corpse in the closet?

　　 The answer is obvious, because there is only one child remaining in this house. It seems that the little Leviathan who painted those weird paintings is probably in the closet.

　　 Thinking of this, he turned around and returned to Room 4 with a cat and a ghost. This time the inspection of the corpse was not just to open the woven bag to see the face, but to take the corpse out.

Jenkins’s true eyes can see through any gifted person, whether alive or dead, and the little boy is not a gifted person. His ability to draw those weird pictures is probably inseparable from the inexplicable inspiration received by reporters. relationship.

　　 Through the reaction when touching the corpse, Jenkins easily distinguished Mrs. Cooper's three children and the little Leviathan.

　　 Leviathan is the shortest among them, because the corpse has been specially treated, so Jenkins can't know his last state. But judging from the traces on the body, the cause of death was definitely not trauma.

　　 He wanted to ask Mrs. Cooper's boy's cause of death, but this time the evil spirit just kept shaking his head, and it seemed unclear.

　　 The boy's fist stretched out and he didn't hold anything. The clothes on his body were probably searched by the man just now, that is, Brown, so there was no surprise.

　　 "Well, then what does this mean?"

　　 Jenkins frowned while sitting in the middle of a pile of corpses:

"The little boy Schultz obviously knows something, but the paintings he left behind are really incomprehensible, and I don't have psychic abilities now. Sure enough, I can only get rid of the evil spirits here before letting the church investigate? Although it's cruel, it seems that this can only be done."

　　 Thinking of this, he looked at the soul around him again with a murderous heart.

　　 But the few compassion in his heart still made him hesitate for a moment to convince himself, this time he succeeded, because at this moment it is not impossible to take the next action:

　　 "Wait, I have a lot of clues now, but I haven't found the final conclusion. Isn't this situation exactly what I have faced many times?"

　　 He laughed self-deprecatingly, patted his head, and then called [Unknown Road Ahead] to call for the guidance of destiny.

　　 The luxurious purple line extended from Jenkins, and after returning to Room One again following the purple line, he picked up one of the seven paintings of Boy Brown again.

　　 Other paintings can barely see the scenes and characters, but this one is the kind that can't be understood at all. If Jenkins understands it, it is probably a group of people standing in front of a dark hole, and everyone appears to be distorted and struggling.

　　The number of people cannot be counted clearly. Because of the deformation of their limbs, the people in the painting are twisted together, and their limbs are entangled like ropes. This is a painting with the most serious mental pollution. Even without any extraordinary factors, this kind of thing must never be seen by ordinary people.

　　 "The dark hole...all the residents on the second floor seem to have mental problems...well...I seem to understand."

Chapter 768 Chapter Seven Hundred and Fifty Three

　　 "Cracked Realm?"

　　 Jenkins stood up silently, walked out of the room to the only door number two that was not opened. Mrs. Cooper's soul was obviously afraid of this place, so she refused to get close.

　　 Jenkins took a deep breath, stretched out his foot and kicked the door open. Inside the door of the hole, the entrance to the treacherous realm exuding endless white light stood quietly.

　　 "Sure enough... I remembered it, my eyes don't seem to see the entrance to the deception at a distance."

　　 In fact, I found out the last time I entered the treacherous world to rescue Miss Stuart, but I never had the chance to encounter the already formed entrance, so I didn't care about it.

　　 Now, everything is probably clear. The cause of the incident was the entrance in front of him. Its appearance caused serious mental trauma to the residents on the second floor of this apartment.

　　The Leviathan family in room one, the little boy Leviathan therefore began to make those terrible paintings, even vaguely aware of the problem;

　　 Howard Link, who lives alone in Room 2, is missing, but there is a high probability that there are no bones left at the entrance to the Uncanny;

　　 The reporter Schultz in room three accepted some whispers and whispers, and was fascinated by occult research ever since. Although the contents of the research were all false, he was finally tempted to step into it. The last message in the diary [I understand, I am coming] showed his whereabouts.

　　 Brown in Room 4 was affected by the spiritual pollution of the treacherous environment, which aggravated his perverted personality, and eventually killed the landlord and the boy who was aware of the problem on the first floor. Brown is also very likely to feel the danger subconsciously like Leviathan, so he doesn't live here anymore.

　　If you start from this aspect, what caused the tragedy of Mrs. Cooper's family should be attributed to the entrance in front of you.

　　 Thinking of this, he looked back and saw Mrs. Cooper standing fearfully in the corridor, but the expression of fear quickly turned into sadness again. It finally stepped into the door, and then passed Jenkins straight into the entrance.

"Hey......"

　　 Jenkins was a little at a loss standing there, but he would never enter that treacherous realm. Now that what happened here has been clarified and the threat of evil spirits is no longer there, then it is correct to let the church resolve it next.

　　 Thinking of this, he nodded and turned around to leave, but heard a clear sound of broken glass coming from behind.

"Ok?"

　　 He turned around and looked suspiciously. There was no problem with the glass in the room, but the problem was the space around the Deception. Dense cracks are all over the air, like a broken spider web. At the same time, the white light in the center of the Bizarre Realm was gradually dimming, and there seemed to be something coming out of it.

　　 "Because no one has passed through for a long time, the treacherous realm will collapse, and the material world will add one or more treacherous objects from then on."

　　 This is the truth of this phenomenon. Although Jenkins has not seen it before, he has heard of it more than once from his father.

　　 "This...I..."

　　Since the space crack can be seen, it means that at most there will be one minute left for the things in the treacherous world to come to the material world, and then collide head-on with Jenkins who is not in time to escape. And even if Jenkins successfully escaped, then he had to face the fact that this city had one or more active tricks.

　　 But Jenkins still didn't make a decision to enter the paradise.

　　 While tangling and thinking, Mr. writer did not notice that he was too close to the entrance. The space crack is still spreading outward, and it has reached Jenkins's side inadvertently.

　　 A huge suction force came from the entrance, and the man was pulled over before he could even retreat. Before falling into the endless white light, he had only time to throw the cat out of his shoulder, and before the chocolate fell to the ground, he completely disappeared into the material world.

　　 "Meow~"

　　 The cat yelled aggrievedly at the entrance of the treacherous world. In fact, it really likes to have fun adventures with Jenkins. After the call, seeing the collapse of the entrance to the treacherous realm stopped, he wagged his tail, bypassed there, jumped out of the window, and ran in the direction of the Church of the Sage.

　　 The familiar dizziness is also a familiar bizarre illusion. Until now, Jenkins is still not accustomed to this forced spatial transfer, maybe his body is still not strong enough, so he can't help retching after his body touches the ground.

　　 It was a terrible feeling, he had to relive the fermented taste of lunch.

　　 Raised his head, there was only himself beside him, but Mrs. Cooper’s ghost did not know where he was going. There is a gloomy sky above, and sometimes black lightning strikes down, and there is clearly a forest in front of me, with bushes and branches showing terrifying shapes. At the foot is a path made of gravel, extending straight to the forest in the distance.

　　 This reminds Jenkins of a boy's painting, and the forest in the painting is just as weird.

　　 "Ahem~"

　　 He feels very uncomfortable, which has never happened before when he entered the treacherous state. Perhaps it is because this place is about to collapse, Jenkins understands that even if the flow of time inside and outside of the strange is different, there is not much time left for him.

　　 Turning his head is the same terrible and dense black forest, but there are no trails, it seems that the gravel road starts from under the feet. An old beggar with a straw hat was fiddled with a piano that Jenkins didn't recognize and shrank on the edge of the path. Seeing Jenkins noticed him, he raised his head.

　　 "Oh, God~"

　　 Jenkins groaned/groaned softly, and what was placed on the human body was the head of an owl.
