Chapter 454 Su Ge's Asylum

The three sat down, and Su Ge asked calmly, "Where's the statue?"

Duke beckoned to the bodyguard on the side, and the bodyguard walked to a nearby room, and took a statue the size of a fist in less than a minute.

The statue seemed to be carved from ancient bluestone. It was a muddy green throughout. The dust and dirt on it had been wiped clean, and even the cracks were spotless. It was enough to see Duke's fancy for this statue.

The statue looks like a monster with a huge octopus head, a human body, and a pair of bat wings.

The technique of the statue does not seem to be very clever, the overall lines of the statue are very rough and simple, as if it has just been polished.

But the moment this statue made Su Ge look, he felt an indescribably terrifying and mysterious atmosphere, and it made people feel an uncontrollable fear.

The fuzzy and rough tentacles on the octopus' head spread out in all directions, showing an indescribable distortion and ugliness.

The deformed octopus head behind the tentacles is even more like a shape that does not belong to this world. It makes people faintly feel the deformity that the water is flooding under the skin and constantly wriggling and flowing, like pustules, herpes, and festering wounds.

"Fizz!"

Su Ge suddenly came back to his senses, took a breath, and looked a little unhappy.

Shirley showed disdain for Su Ge at this time, and looked down at her nails.

Su Ge didn't dare to keep looking at that deformed head with his eyes,
His spiritual vision has now reached 55 points, which is already a relatively high value among human beings. He is afraid that his spiritual vision will make him see something that he shouldn't see.

The eyes fell on the statue's body.

Compared with the ferocious head, the statue's body is strangely peaceful. It seems to be meditating, with its legs crossed together, and its hands placed on its lower abdomen in a vague gesture that Su Ge couldn't understand.

The wings on the back are attached to the sides of the body, protecting it in the middle like eggshells, as if protecting his body.

Looking back from the statue, Duke said seriously: "You should also feel the difference in this statue, right? According to my estimation, this statue has a history of at least 3000 years. Although the workmanship is relatively rough, it looks like some The god statue placed on the bow of the ship when the island nation goes to sea has great research value and historical significance."

Su Ge's face was calm, and he asked with some dignity in his tone: "Mr. Stephen, your housekeeper, have you ever been in contact with this statue for a long time? Or have you been alone?"

When Duke heard Su Ge's tone, his face was a little dignified, and then he nodded after thinking carefully, "Before this statue was kept by him. The thief got the statue yesterday, and he snatched it back later. It seems... he When I went out in the rain, I was still holding the statue."

Hearing this, Su Ge said directly: "There is nothing wrong with that. This statue is no accident. It should be an artifact used by a certain cult, and it may even be a statue of a certain evil god."

"The statue of the evil god!?" Hearing this, Duke's face turned pale.

Su Ge pointed to the fuzzy traces on it and said: "From these traces, it can be seen that the craftsman who carved this statue is a very skilled craftsman. He should have been able to make this statue lifelike, but why is this statue Will it become like this?"

Duke shook his head, expressing that he didn't know.

Su Ge said seriously: "Because, gods cannot be seen directly."

Hearing this, Duke suddenly remembered the ancient law that mortals cannot look directly at gods.

Su Ge looked at the statue and said: "The craftsman should also be a heretic. He longs for others to see his Lord, but if the carving is too realistic, everyone who sees it will go crazy. At the same time, this statue will not be destroyed by the will of the world." allowed."

"That's why he deliberately carved the statue like this."

After listening to Su Ge's words, Duke carefully looked at those tiny scratches, his face became paler immediately, and he asked in a trembling voice: "Mr. Are you keeping an eye on it!?"

If someone said this to him in normal times, he would probably think that guy is a liar who wants this statue.

However, it is different now. He deeply knows how rational and determined his housekeeper is. It is unbelievable that such a wise man suddenly went crazy.

Coupled with the crazy posture and resentful eyes of the person who was pestering him before, it immediately made him even more frightened.

Su Ge touched his chin and looked at the statue. He had clearly recognized that the statue was a statue of Cthulhu.

At this time, he was not thinking about the authenticity of the statue, but why the statue appeared in Duke's hands.

When Duke fell into fear, Su Ge suddenly asked: "How did you bring this statue in? I remember that a cruise ship of this level should have very strict controls on the belongings of guests, right? Anything suspicious It is not allowed to bring it up."

Duke came back to his senses and said: "This thing is quite precious, and I carried it with me at the time. Moreover, our family has a very good reputation, so we can go through a special passage, and the inspection is relatively loose."

Su Ge suddenly thought of a possibility, and continued to ask: "Then when did you bring this statue up?"

"It was the day before boarding the ship, and we planned to leave Ocean City the next day, but we encountered something like that and changed jobs temporarily." Duke said.

Su Ge had roughly understood some of the situation and fell into deep thought.

This immediately made Duke even more uneasy: "Mr. Black Mist, did you think of something?"

Su Ge regained his senses and nodded slightly, and said: "Based on my experience, you have been targeted by the cult and become an accomplice helping them deliver goods. Even this statue was carefully designed by them for you to bring on board, After all, they don't have the ability to bring this thing up."

Hearing this, Duke's face was very ugly, and he recalled that down-and-out old sailor in his mind. From the way he talked and behaved, he really didn't look like that kind of poor and down-and-out sailor.

"Damn it, I was actually careless." Duke said with a very ugly face.

Su Ge leaned on the sofa mountain and did not speak, giving Duke enough time to think.

After more than ten seconds of silence, Duke asked in a low voice, "Can you find out which cult is using me?"

Su Ge replied calmly: "This requires additional fees."

"The cost is not a problem, as long as you can guarantee my personal safety, so that I will not be entangled by evil gods and persecuted by cults. After arriving at the family safely, you will get the purest and most sincere friendship from me, Duke Hausman." Du Although Ke was a little flustered at this time, his tone was still calm, his words were clear, his eyes were energetic and solemn, giving people a very trustworthy look.

Hearing this, Su Ge nodded and said, "I like straightforward people. I won't insure the price for the specific amount. I believe you can give me a satisfactory price."

Duke said seriously, "That's for sure."

Su Ge nodded, then looked at Duke and asked seriously: "Mr. Hausman, do you trust me?"

Duke was silent for a few seconds after listening, and said truthfully: "I don't trust you very much."

"I appreciate your frankness. Because frankness is the first step in cooperation." Su Ge said with approval on his face.

Duke squeezed out a smile: "Our family started with honesty, and honesty is the rule of our family."

Su Ge continued: "You should be able to feel something. I am not an ordinary psychiatrist. At the same time, I have a certain cooperative relationship with the captain of this ship."

Duke recalled Su Ge's attitude towards the proud vice-captain, nodded affirmatively and said, "Yes, I can feel it. If my estimation is correct, you should be a mysterious person."

The two bodyguards were taken aback when they heard this. Seeing Su Ge's expression gradually tense, his hands slowly stretched to his lower back, carefully holding the weapon placed there.

Snapped!
Su Ge snapped his fingers, nodded slightly, and said, "Your feeling is not wrong. Since you can recognize us by our features, you should have heard of our reputation. We are able to traverse so many ancient tombs and are still alive without contamination. If we encounter any vicious curses and troubles, our husband and wife naturally have strong enough means of self-protection."

Duke said seriously: "You are very frank and bold. You are the first person I have ever seen who dared to admit so openly that you are a mystic."

Su Ge said with a casual smile: "The mystic is not a cultist. Although the church has been restricting the contact between the mystic and ordinary people, in fact there is not much difference between the mystic and ordinary people. A gun in the head will kill you. "

Hearing this, Duke showed a relatively relaxed smile on his face, and asked tentatively, "What plan do you need my help now?"

Su Ge nodded, and said bluntly: "Captain Macock is an upright soldier. He knew that there were cultists on this ship, so he invited me to help him find out all these cultists. Coincidentally..."

Su Ge said, looking at Duke with interest: "The thing in your hand is the statue of the evil god that those cultists believe in."

Hearing this, Duke suddenly felt a chill emerge from his soul, and instantly spread to his whole body.

"What... what do they want to do?" Duke was very smart, he had faintly felt the seriousness of this matter.

Su Ge said: "I don't think you want to know what you are doing. You just know that the statue in your hand has become his target."

"Then I will hand over this statue to you now!" He cherished his life more than money.

Su Ge looked down at the statue in front of him and shook his head: "I have no interest or demand for this statue, because I need you to continue to hold this statue with your own hands, and then give it to someone who needs it at a critical moment."
