Scarlet Falls

"What are you talking about?"

Listening to the head pendant's extremely irresponsible speculation, Wei Wei couldn't help but be rude.

Also the Scarlet Bible.

The man in front of me didn't even look like he knew him.

However, he was indeed a little curious.

Compared with the various monsters he saw after coming to Noah, the man in front of him was particularly different.

How should I put it, he gave me the feeling that he was a "person".

Everything else, whether it's a desperate soul or this chain-intertwined village, everything is a monster.

Only here, in the deepest part of the village, I actually saw a "person".

A "man" who used all his strength to pull on the iron chain, with a mouse gnawing in his belly.

Wei Wei quietly approached and squatted in front of him, looking at his face and the mouse in his belly.

This person seemed to have noticed someone approaching, his head trembled slightly, and he opened his eyes weakly:

"Go...go..."

"..."

Wei Wei almost put his ear to his mouth before hearing his imperceptible voice.

"Who are you?"

Wei Wei looked at him with a smile: "Why are you here?"

The man seemed unresponsive to Wei Wei's question of who he really was.

But when Wei Wei asked him why he was here, his eyes seemed dull and confused:

"This is home..."

"..."

"Your home?"

Wei Wei sat on the stone platform next to him and said, "Are your family full of monsters like this?"

The man stared blankly, his eyes empty, and he didn't seem very smart.

Wei Wei turned his head and looked outside the village, his eyes passing through the sneaky shadows and through the gaps between the densely intertwined iron chains.

He saw that outside the village, there were countless madness and curses. Those people could not wait to kill each other. Even at the beginning, everyone tried to avoid killing, so as not to turn this competition into a Shura field. idea.

But at this moment, I felt the expansion of my own power, and felt that the agent's position was within reach.

They were all crazy, and they all attacked each other with great hatred and madness.

…

…

"Didn't we say that the focus is to find the meaning of scarlet and despair?"

Wei Wei watched them fighting each other from a distance and said with a smile: "Why do you still have to fight in the end?"

The man holding the iron chain was the only one in the village. There was only anxiety in his empty eyes:

"Don't fight, don't fight..."

"..."

"And you?"

Wei Wei turned to look at him and said with a smile: "Everything else here has turned into a monster, why haven't you?"

The man opened his mouth wide, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't seem to be very good at speaking.

"It doesn't matter, I'll see for myself..."

Wei Wei bit his index finger and lightly tapped it on the man's temple. Blood spurted out and penetrated into the man's brain bit by bit. Then Wei Wei gently closed his eyes and began to watch. The memory of this man was brought up.

"what the hell……"

After looking at it for a long time, his face seemed to be covered with a touch of sadness: "It turned out to be just a fool."

…

…

"Old Li, don't be so angry..."

At this time, outside the town, more and more forces are arriving from all over. You can vaguely see how many demonic powers of different natures in the night sky are causing the distortion of the surrounding air, which makes the pressure of the tide from all directions become more and more intense. big.

But not many dared to get close at this time.

After all, the White Ghost Knights have taken the lead, and the pressure the White Ghosts bring to the surroundings is no less than theirs.

But in the face of such pressure, Captain Ouyang deliberately sounded more relaxed: "I didn't expect that I could get here ahead of you, but I'm curious, didn't your city defender plan predict this fall?" point?"

Facing Captain Ouyang's inquiry, the four Knights of Order all remained silent.

Brother Xiao Lin and others, on the other hand, raised their heads curiously and seemed to be very interested in this issue.

The Church of Order once carried out an extremely large plan with the support of the Foundation, which was the "City Defender Project".

Sensen and her grandfather, the old Knight of Order, also came to Scrap Iron City because of this plan.

The four Knights of Order did not answer, and Captain Ouyang kept staring at them.

After a long time, one of the order knights couldn't stand this kind of look. He sighed softly and said: "Of course, otherwise we wouldn't have arrived here just one step behind you. It's a pity that Noah, the ghost ship, has no idea what's going on here." The pollution is still too severe.”

"Even if we knew it half an hour in advance, by the time we got here, it was already too late..."

"..."

"The city defender plan is so vulnerable?"

Captain Ouyang seemed a little confused: "I thought this was a tribe that you had forgotten."

"Any place with more than 30,000 people and a concept of order will never be forgotten."

An order knight with a bad temper said coldly: "It's just that the city defender plan is different from what you think. Not every city, especially the tribes in these wilderness, has strong knight guardians. , we just used the No. 002 Demonic Taboo to spread the concept of guardianship into the wilderness, and most of the city defenders will be born spontaneously..."

Brother Xiao Lin suddenly became interested: "Is it also available here?"

The bad-tempered Knight of Order glared at him, but his tone was inexplicably lighter and he nodded: "Of course."

"It's a pity that it was destroyed too quickly..."

"..."

Brother Xiao Lin's eyes widened: "Why?"

The order knight couldn't help but glance at him again, and then said: "Because they were destroyed by themselves."

"The defenders of the city are not guarding the people, but the bottom line they are guarding."

"..."

After a moment of silence, he suddenly sighed: "The more innocent a person is, the easier it is to be influenced by the plans of the city defenders and become city defenders and village defenders in various places. This also leads to the fact that there are many intellectuals among them. Unsound...or to put it bluntly, people like fools, they will subconsciously fight against those demons and corrupted monsters when they sense a crisis coming."

"This village has them too."

"But this man was dead before the crisis hit."

"..."

Brother Xiao Lin suddenly became nervous: "How did you die?"

"Then who knows?"

The Order Knight with a more childish voice looked at him for the third time and said angrily:

"Maybe he died of starvation, maybe he was poisoned, maybe he was beaten to death."

"..."

"but……"

He looked up at this small town full of despair and said, "A fool is dead."

"The bottom line in this village has disappeared."

"Twisted desires will always attract the prying eyes of the devil, and a village that has lost its bottom line will welcome the arrival of Noah."

"..."

"..."

"So, are you actually resentful in your heart?"

Wei Wei withdrew the finger that was on the fool's temple and smiled at him: "You were starved to death by your favorite village."

"Because you were starved to death, your resentment summoned Noah to come?"

"..."

The fool would not answer his words. There was only worry and anxiety hidden deep in his empty eyes.

"What if it was because a fool starved to death in the village that the last limit was broken and Noah was summoned..."

Wei Wei, who originally came in to look for the Scarlet Bible, now that his hope had failed, he also shifted his attention and just sat next to the fool, thinking quietly: "Then, this is indeed something worthy of sorrow. However, such despair seems too worthless to Noah... So, is there something I haven't discovered yet? "

He stood up and looked over the fool.

The entire village, as well as the blood mist space where they first entered, has been intertwined with iron chains.

The interweaving and binding has become a powerful force that can turn almost everything into a monster and harvest all desperate souls.

Only the fool, he still fights against all this in his "human" form.

Despair seems to come from fools, but what does despair mean?

Wei Wei, who realized something was wrong, walked around the fool for half a circle, suddenly realized something, turned around and walked behind the fool, and then he saw that the fool was dragging the chain tightly, and there was something blocking the chain. A dark shack, it looked like a chicken coop, a dog kennel, or something else, but after opening the shack, Wei Wei's expression suddenly became stiff.

At this moment, it was like an electric current surged through his scalp.

Wei Wei saw that there were actually several trembling children hiding here, looking at him with horrified eyes.

…

…

The scenes just spied from the fool's mind were intertwined and pieced together with the children he saw in front of him.

The moment the man who got off the boat waved the chain, the fool greeted him angrily.

However, the dead rat he had eaten into his stomach was causing his stomach pain to the point where the rat was almost biting him, trying to burrow through his stomach and crawl out, so the fool could only watch as all the people in the village They were all killed, torn apart, and turned into embellishments on the chains. But he, already in this state, still tried his best to stand up again...

He hugged the chain that stretched toward the child behind his body.

Even though he was already dead at that moment, he still held on stubbornly and refused to let go.

Because I am worried that the child behind me will be harmed.

He was desperate because he hated his own powerlessness and could not protect the village.

But he still used his last bit of strength to hug the chain, leaving a small area behind him that was not so desperate.

…

…

Wei Wei thought about all this quietly, tears slowly flowing down, and a smile subconsciously appeared on his face:

"What a fool..."
