Fabricating Weird Myths, Starting From American Comics

For Stark.

Such a move is extremely dangerous.

But after seeing the vision for the second time, Stark realized that not all visions were as scary as the first.

Hawkeye agreed to Stark's proposal: "Okay, then we will try our best to explore every room and area.

See if you can get Stark to trigger the illusion's ability again. "

Stark Ability can help them better understand the history of Exham Abbey.

Perhaps the secrets of the past can also be unearthed from fantasy.

Uncover the secrets of the Delapore family.

"Be careful, there are some cracks on that step and it may break." Daisy reminded the people behind her.

Exham Abbey has not been repaired or maintained for too long.

There were problems with all kinds of decor.

If everyone wants to go to the second floor, they have to step over the decayed wooden steps.

The corridor on the second floor is still made of stone, so there is no need to worry about collapse here.

However, coming to a new place did not trigger the illusion for Stark.

"It seems that not everywhere you go can trigger illusions." Stark sighed,

"This means that the information we can collect will be reduced.

"When we carry out this mission, the most important mission is to find the Necronomicon.

But the most important thing for us is to ensure that we can survive. "Hawkeye warned,

"That's fine, we don't know the cost of activating those abilities yet.

The four of them walked together in the dusty corridor.

Spider web attached.

Both sides of the corridor were empty, with square or rectangular vacancies appearing in some places.

There seemed to be some paintings or photos or other decorations hung in those places.

Now they are gone.

Judging from the time, most of these decorations should belong to ordinary people later.

"Something's wrong, why were the things here taken away?

According to the description in the records, those subsequent homeowners either disappeared or fell into madness.

Could it be that someone else took away those decorations?"

"Maybe they are their relatives, maybe." Daisy said.

For most people, this is a very normal thing.

When all family members die or lose the ability to inherit, other relatives will inherit the property.

"But the only thing we don't have here are the decorations on the walls," Rumlow pointed to a telephone set at the other end of the corridor.

“This is a gold-plated microphone, which is a very valuable thing, and it’s not big.

But they didn't take it away. "

Through the traces left on the wall, you can see that the framed photos or paintings are not small in size.

"Could it be that someone came here specifically to take away these paintings? Maybe there are some secrets on those things.

Don't want others to know. "Hawkeye said,

"It's just who did it."

Everyone thought and came to the end of the corridor.

I walked an entire corridor without Stark triggering the illusion.

"Maybe we should check in the room."

There are several bedrooms on the second floor, as well as some utility rooms.

Hawkeye opened a door casually, and the pungent smell of decay hit his face.

The mold and dust brought with it made everyone sneeze several times before they gave up.

“Big bedroom, really luxurious.”

This bedroom is a full 45 square meters.

As soon as Stark stepped in, the time had eroded and the classical decoration showed signs of serious damage.

There was an empty bed in the center, and the bed was also covered with dust.

Stark rubbed his hair and turned around to say something.

He saw a long knife exuding coldness slashing towards him, and Stark instantly broke into a cold sweat.

The blade passed across Stark's body without causing any damage.

But Stark could hear a piercing scream.

"Illusion, it's an illusion!" Stark tried his best to comfort himself in his heart before turning around.

The luxurious carpet was covered with blood, and the person lying on the ground widened his eyes unwillingly.

Blood gushed out from everywhere on her body, and a thin-looking man waved the long knife in his hand.

Judging from the appearance, it should be a long-handled meat cleaver used on the dining table.

He chopped wildly, even though the person under him was already dead.

The blood dyed his whole body bright red, and he did not stop.

It wasn't until the man lost his strength that he stopped panting.

When he stood up, he almost slipped on the blood under his feet.

He wiped the blood from his face, and Stark was able to see the man's face clearly.

I saw that the man wielding the knife was actually the man who only ate vegetable salad at the family dinner!

He held the knife and stood up from the body, staggering because of the blood under his feet.

Then he turned and walked out of the door.

He walked to another bedroom, and then a dull sound like cutting meat came from that bedroom.

He was like the Death God knocking on the door every time he entered the next bedroom.

In less than a moment, he will come out with a knife.

Each time represents the death of a life.

"He is the third son of the Delapore family!" Stark immediately made a decision in his heart.

He is now actually at the scene of the murder of the Delapore family that shocked the town!

But looking at his third son holding a knife so decisively, Stark was a little confused: "

He was so ruthless and decisive that he killed his entire family.

What reason does he have to hate his family?"

Stark is puzzled, as can be seen from the family dinner.

Even if he doesn't like meat, his family will thoughtfully prepare salad for him.

Occasionally, I will also care about his diet and hope that he will eat some meat.

A pure vegetarian diet is not beneficial to the normal human body.

This is a completely normal family that takes care of each other.

Could it be that the third son is a staunch vegetarian?

Do you hate your family because they are all crazy meat eaters?

Would such an inference be too outrageous?

Stark finished his thoughts.

The illusion is not over yet, he still has the opportunity to find other clues.

In the corridor, there is a painting.

It was a startling painting.

""The God of Agriculture Eats His Son", isn't it inappropriate for this painting to appear in the family?"

Stark frowned.

"The God of Agriculture Eats His Son" describes the god of agriculture in Roman mythology, whose status is similar to Cronus in Greek mythology.

Because it was predicted that he would be overthrown and killed by his own son.

Believing the prophecy, the god of agriculture devoured all his sons in panic.

This painting is describing the process of being devoured by the god of agriculture.

The scene is extremely bloody, and the expression of extreme fear of the God of Agriculture is vividly depicted because of the fear of the predicted arrival.

This is a masterpiece.

But no matter in terms of materials or painting style, it should not appear on the walls of the home.

There are other paintings on the walls.

They are all horrific paintings similar to "The God of Agriculture Eats His Son".

But the themes of these paintings are very similar.

That's eating - people.

No matter what kind of existence the subject is, whether it is a god, a monster or other existence.

In the paintings, they are all devouring living people or human-like lives with ferocious faces.

"Why do these paintings appear here?" Stark felt that he found something wrong.

Even if I like these paintings, I would not place them in important places in my family!

And it is still placed in the corridor of the bedroom.

This is too unreasonable.

This vision is a bit long and it's not over yet.

Stark raised his eyebrows and walked towards the direction where his third son disappeared.

The third son holding the butcher's knife hasn't stopped yet. He looks exhausted.

He collapsed on the ground, kneeling down, and the gorgeous silk pajamas on his body were completely wet with blood (cidj).

Can't see the original color.

Only a bright red was left, as if it had just been fished out of blood.

A drop of blood slipped from the corner of his eye, and the water on his face was diluted.

Soon two thin lines appeared in the corners of his eyes.

The crystal water drops were soon dyed red by blood.

"He's crying?" Stark stepped forward.

The third son knelt on the ground and dropped the long-handled meat cleaver in his hand.

He hugged his head and cried, tearing his hair desperately and roaring.

This time Stark heard what he was saying.

He said: "O God! Please forgive me! Forgive my soul! O God! Please forgive me!......"

The illusion disappeared, and Stark was back in the corridor, but now he was standing at the other end of the corridor.

Behind them are the three Hawkeyes.

Before the three of them spoke.

Stark was the first to speak: "Yes, I entered the illusion again."

Hawkeye scratched his head and asked, "What did you see this time?"

"I saw the scene of the Delapore family's murder." Stark took everyone back to the first bedroom,

"I triggered the illusion here, but I didn't realize it at the moment I turned around.

I saw a knife coming towards me.

I was shocked at the time, but I quickly adjusted.

The person with the knife immediately rushed towards the person behind me who was still on the bed.

The person on the bed was a woman, but I couldn't see her face clearly because his first knife hit her face.

I can guarantee that the woman was dead with the first stab.

But he still slashed several times in a frantic manner.

He didn't stop until he was almost out of strength.

At that time, his flesh and blood were already mutilated. ” Stark said,

"Then he walked out of the bedroom with a knife and went to every bedroom.

Killing everyone, but in the end, he knelt at the end of the corridor crying. "

"Crying?" Rumlow asked with some confusion,

"A guy who suddenly killed his whole family can actually cry?"

"Yes, he knelt on the ground, threw the knife and kept saying words like "God! Please forgive me! God please forgive me"." Stark replied, he also felt a little strange,

"Could it be that he regretted it after committing the crime and asked for God's forgiveness?"

"It's like he was forced to do that kind of thing." Hawkeye wondered,

"But until now, we haven't discovered what the Delapore family actually did.

No trace of the Necronomicon was found. "Daisy shrugged and said,

"Even we don't know what god the Delapore family worships."

"We can only search slowly. Have you found anything else Stark?" Hawkeye said.

"Yes," Stark immediately told Hawkeye the most unusual thing he saw in his fantasy,

“There are many paintings on the walls of the hallway in the illusion.

I can't name most of the paintings.

One of the most famous paintings is called "The God of Agriculture Eats His Son", which depicts the god of agriculture in Roman mythology, whose status is equivalent to Cronus in Greek mythology, devouring himself.

about his own son.

Although the paintings on the walls are all different, almost all of them are describing one thing. "

Hawkeye immediately understood the meaning: "A painting that is swallowed up like the god of agriculture?"

"Yes, although there are gods, monsters, and even demons as subjects, they are all doing one thing.

Daisy said with some disgust: "What kind of family would hang such a painting in their home? It's too scary. I don't even want to move such a painting home, let alone put it on the wall."

Bye. "

Stark nodded and said: "So this is an anomaly. Why would a normal family hang those horrific paintings in public places?"

“There might be a deeper meaning to hanging a painting like that.

This is the first time we have found something strange about the Delapore family. "

Everyone stepped forward to go to the third floor, but found that the steps on the third floor were completely decayed.

"Maybe get a rope?" Rumlow started. "Just a little help and I can jump up.

I'll throw the rope down for you, and you can just grab the rope and climb up.

"No, let's not go upstairs for now." Hawkeye thought for a moment and said, "The stairs are already decayed, and the situation on the third floor is even worse.

Let's go to the first floor first.

I think if they want to hide their family's secrets, maybe they also have a secret room

Let's go look for it downstairs. "

"good."

The four of them returned downstairs and heard hurried footsteps walking towards Exum Abbey.

"Someone is coming, hide quickly." Hawkeye immediately ordered.

Everyone quickly found several places to hide on the first floor.

But the ground was full of dust, and everyone's footprints could not be covered up at all.

The four of them were ready for a close encounter. If they were enemies, they would be ready to break out at any time.

However, at this moment, everyone heard a very familiar voice.

They had only heard this sound yesterday.

"Stranger? Stranger? Are you here?"

It was the old man who had told the four of them yesterday the history of the Delapore family and the secrets of Exham Abbey.

Why did this old man suddenly appear at Exham Abbey?

Other residents in the town changed their minds when they heard about Exham Abbey.

But the old man came over on his own initiative.

Is it for money? I just got 100,000 USD yesterday.

With the consumption ability of this small town, it is difficult to plan even if you spend extravagantly.

It can also take a long time.

"What are you doing here?" Hawkeye asked coldly. .
