The group of people had already become nervous due to all kinds of strange situations. The three people from Team 17 directly took out their revolvers and aimed at the white-haired priest.
"Wait! Wait...!" Sister Cybert quickly stood in front of Torres, "It doesn't necessarily mean it's possession... At least... let's confirm it first..."
Possessed?
Only then did Hitzfeld realize what they were so nervous about.
Evil spirits can manifest in many forms. Madam mentioned in a notebook her personal habit of distinguishing evil spirits.
Nightmares and evil creatures belong to the "biological system".
Corruptors and curses belong to the "pollution system".
There is another kind of evil phenomenon in the pollution system, which Madam doesn’t know whether it should be classified as a curse, that is, possession by evil spirits.
Everything is animistic.
The short sentence that Frick mentioned not long ago.
It is certainly an exaggeration, but at least it is certain that intelligent creatures have souls.
When human spirits are distorted in nightmares, they may hatch into nightmare monsters. There are also cases where the hatching fails, in which case these spirits will become evil spirits themselves.
This is a very mysterious statement. Hitzfeld has flipped through many books on these subjects in Puslint and the black market, and found that this kind of spirit is called variously, evil spirit, evil spirit, evil thoughts, devil soul... Every time you change the book, you have to use a different name.
According to her own understanding, she felt that these scattered wandering spirits were most likely the source of the whispers in her ears.
Unexamined.
No consciousness.
I didn't know what I was and merged into the gray fog in the dream world.
This is nothing.
But in some extreme cases, involving special cases of curses, those spirits may invade people with weak willpower and control them silently.
There is no such suspicion in the death ticket case because Wayne Port, as the royal city of Sara, has a thriving population and great popularity. In addition, with the Central Diocese in charge, stone slabs to suppress it, and mechanical sun in the sky, this kind of wandering spirit has no chance to escape from the dream world.
But now we are in a deserted place.
They had just returned from a beach full of death, where hundreds of people had died tragically. The wails they let out before dying and the despair emanating from their consciousness were the best delicacies for some beings.
There's no guarantee that some dirty stuff won't come back with it.
"I'm fine!"
Torres raised one hand and with the other rummaged through the folds of his robe, pulling out something and throwing it on the table.
"It's just a bite from this thing, don't shoot--"
"what is this?"
Ethan and Zafira did not put away their guns. Hitzfeld took the opportunity to get closer and take a closer look. He found that the thing on the table was actually a - earthworm?
Oh, it’s not an earthworm... Although it has a slender body like an earthworm, you can still see the dense compound legs around the body.
It is khaki in color with a red line on its back and abdomen, as wide as a little finger and seven or eight centimeters long, resembling a combination of an earthworm and a centipede.
The thing was thrown onto the table and twisted around, turning over and trying to escape, but Hitzfeld pressed the pen down on its back.
It was quite ferocious, and it raised the front half of its body and tried to bite her. During this process, its snout could be clearly seen, where there was a circle of dense, small teeth like a mane.
"Amilon sandworm." Xia Yibing breathed a sigh of relief.
"An amphibious scavenger, not poisonous in any position."
It must be very uncomfortable to be bitten by this thing.
Several people immediately put away their guns and looked at the white-haired young man with sympathy in their eyes.
And the place he just covered...
I hope nothing serious happens.
"what happened?"
This is Xia Yibing's voice.
Ethan turned around and saw the captain lying next to the girl, looking at her with concern.
This description might not be accurate, because he could see that Xia Yibing was not trying to force her to care about the girl, but Hitzfeld's current expression was a little scary.
His brows were furrowed.
His face turned pale.
...as for that?
It was just a harmless little bug, but it made them even more nervous than before.
"Amilon sandworms... they like to eat carrion, but they shouldn't be on the beach at all."
Hitzfeld shook his head slowly.
"They live more on the seabed and coral reefs, and in some extreme cases they even live at the bottom of the trench. Divers have found them in underwater caves 600 meters deep."
“But now they are on the beach, on land.”
"They must not have... they must not have come up here by themselves..."
"Something brought them up here..."
"Bang-"
The window suddenly shook.
The people in the cabin shuddered and looked out the window, only to find that the speed of the clouds moving was not normal.
Chapter 18 Waterspout
The sea is like a little girl, it changes its face at any time.
This is not a joke.
The sea breeze had unknowingly increased several levels, and the dark clouds in the sky were rolling like smoke and dust under the strong wind.
Hitzfeld walked out of the cabin, staring at the fierce wind. As soon as he walked out, his eyes flashed and he saw a twisted arc of electricity splitting the clouds, like the power of a god, illuminating the turbulent sea surface.
The degree of this wave's heave is already very wrong.
The corners of her mouth twitched, and she wanted to turn back and shout, asking Frick and others to raise the anchor and sail away from this sea area as quickly as possible.
"boom!!!"
But the next moment, a bolt of thunder suddenly exploded in the clouds, covering up all her words.
Tick…click…
The wet liquid hit her face, and Hitzfeld looked up at the sky. What greeted her was a super strong wind and heavy rain carried by the wind.
For an instant.
In just a moment, her clothes were all wet.
The rain curtain hit her from the front and above, knocking her back continuously. She had never thought that a storm on the sea would come so suddenly and so terribly. She was completely caught off guard. She took two steps back and her foot slipped, with her lower back hitting the top of the railing.
It’s over.
Hitzfeld's heart sank.
Her body was losing balance. If she allowed the situation to continue unabated, in a few tenths of a second she would flip over the railing due to inertia and plunge into the sea.
It's a completely different feeling.
Facing evil spirits, even evil gods, although she was afraid and panicked, at least she knew how to think of ways and how to fight against them.
But now... facing the overwhelming force of nature, the situation where the entire sky was roaring at her, her brain was completely blank and she had no idea what to do.
Her vision was blurred, and as she turned over, she vaguely saw someone rushing towards her.
She was hugged and held in mid-air.
The two fell into the sea together.
Pfft!
Gurgling, gurgling, gurgling...
The moment I sank into the sea, all the roaring of the storm disappeared.
It was as if the mute button was pressed, and she could only hear the sound of bubbles stirring.
The desire to survive made her hold her breath and kick desperately with her hands and feet.
She can still swim.
Although I can’t say I’m a good swimmer, at least I can swim.
But she had never swam in the sea, let alone fallen into the water during a storm.
Don’t panic…
Don’t panic——
He kept reminding himself in his heart and forced himself to open his one eye in an attempt to see things clearly.
But it's difficult.
She couldn't tell which direction she was heading, or whether she was rolling or sinking in the sea. Most of the scenes she saw were filled with surging darkness, as if something would rush out of it and swallow her up in the next second.
Puff...Puff wow...!
Hitzfeld couldn't hold on any longer, and he let out a breath and almost choked on the water.
I can't hold on any longer...
Her cheeks puffed up to the limit, and she finally saw a white object faintly visible above her body.
Is that... the moon?
Is it the moon?
She paddled her hands and feet, trying to float up, but failed after trying for a long time.
She felt like she was doomed. Her mediocre paddling skills were not good enough in the sea, not to mention that she was wearing a long skirt. Her legs seemed to be restricted by the hem of the skirt.
Puff...Gulp gulp...
The air is deflated.
The feeling of sea water pouring into your trachea is not pleasant.
She struggled desperately with her last bit of strength, but her increasingly oxygen-deprived brain recalled the past...she recalled a similar situation she had encountered in her dreams.
It seems like a figure is floating over...
White light…
Looks really familiar...
In a daze, she began to relax her body and let herself sink down little by little.
The waist seemed to be trapped.
The figure...is getting closer and closer to me.
It felt like something was touching my lips.
Bingbing...
Cool...
She couldn't help but move her little tongue and lick it.
"Pfft!"
“Gulp gulp gulp gulp—”
A strong force pulled her waist and pulled her upwards.
In an instant, he broke through the turbulent sea surface and was hit in the chest and abdomen again. Hitzfeld woke up suddenly and sprayed a lot of clean water from his mouth and nose.
"Cough cough cough-"
"You... Xia?"
