Mysterious Hunting Ground

Chapter 374 364. Energy field, missing mother and son

Dean drove the car outside a rusty iron door that was split on both sides. Looking around, behind the door was a cemetery covering an area of ​​more than ten square kilometers. There were many tombstones on the snow dotted with green grass. Some of them were recently buried. The epitaphs are legible just two years ago, but some have been standing for hundreds of years. They have been weathered by the weather and have become difficult to read.

The not-so-distant setting sun had just fallen into the horizon, weaving a strange gray sunset in the mid-air, and covering the cemetery with a layer of pale mist.

Desolate and lonely.

It became stronger and stronger, like a curse.

Dean suppressed the faint uneasiness in his heart and woke up his companions who were resting in the car.

"Everyone, we're here. I slept really long today."

"Sorry, man, I don't know what's going on, I keep having this recurring nightmare."

Sean got out of the car and turned his bloodshot pupils to the desolate cemetery. A group of crows standing on the dead tree were frightened by the footsteps of the people and flew through the air noisily, leaving an ominous black trail.

"In my dream, a nocturnal species that I had never seen before appeared with a vague face. It waved a pair of large and narrow wings and was suspended in the darkness. It stared at me with its big red eyes like light bulbs, which made me feel hairy all over. Yes. Yeah, the shape of its wings doesn’t look like that of a bird or a bat.”

"This cemetery is definitely not Midian, but it is filled with alien energy. It can not only interfere with the perception and emotions of living people, but also interfere with space. The crazy boss and guests in the restaurant in Tranquility Town are also affected by it?"

Dean used his strong will to suppress his restless thoughts, followed his perception and walked quickly to the northernmost part of the cemetery, where the alien energy is most active, and found two adjacent newly built tombs. The simple tombstones recorded:

All the coffins were tightly covered, and the corpses lay quietly sleeping inside. The degree of decay matched the time and climate, and there was no mutation.

But gradually, as he got closer to the north of the cemetery.

In the ground below the coffin, within half a kilometer of the limit of God's perspective, Dean failed to detect the tunnels, caves, and hive-like underground kingdom that he had seen in the murals.

Dean touched his chin, a new type of nocturnal species?
"I also had a dream, but it wasn't a nightmare." Monica and Kristen said in unison, with a hint of shyness on their faces, "The content was very strange..."

Everyone nodded and followed Dean into the cemetery with solemn expressions, splitting into two groups and searching.

In addition, under the perspective of Dean's skills, countless space nodes here are beating irregularly, radiating jagged rays of light, like unstable bombs that are about to detonate, all pointing towards the dark void.

The center of Dean's eyebrows began to heat up and swell. The tombstones, snow, trees and shrubs in his sight also twisted with the beating heat, and spread outward like circles of sticky wrinkles like oil paintings. It casts abstract shadows on the ground.

"Bonnie Grapp, died on February 1982, 2, at the age of 24..."

Boone, Sean, and two vampires search the south.

"Listen to me, this is a good sign." Dean checked everyone's bodies from God's perspective. No disease was found, and the light of life was normal. "This proves that we are going in the right direction, and we are getting better and better." Being close to Midian and coming into contact with its special energy field caused this series of strange symptoms. But be careful, you may encounter more unpredictable dangers next."

Dean took Christine straight north, scanning the ground of every grave along the way.

"What's the matter with you guys? Did you catch a cold from overtraining last night?" Peter wiped his nose with his index finger refreshed and put on his hood to block the setting sun that burned his skin in the sky. "Where do you get so many problems?"

He determined that this cemetery was not where Midian, the monster paradise, was located.

"I didn't dream, but I didn't sleep well..." Boon's rough face was as straight as a poker, his brows were furrowed like cracked ravines, and his fingers repeatedly rubbed the area between his brows. "I feel dizzy and swollen, as if I have high blood pressure. But with my physical condition, I shouldn’t.”

A trace of invisible hot air clung to him from the surrounding air, seeping into the life shield like a flame, drilling into the skin and blood vessels, and traveling straight to the brain along the blood.

Strange and intense emotions, hunger, thirst, killing, mating, all kinds of desires arise uncontrollably.

"Arnie Grapp, died on February 1982, 2, at the age of 26..."

"A mother and her son died one after another more than half a month ago." Dean glanced at the bottom of the soil. The two coffins were empty, and the bodies of the mother and son were missing.

That's not the strangest thing. Behind the tombstone stood two bare maple trees not far apart.

Their trunks and branches are still normal, but the roots that should have penetrated deep into the ground have broken through the snow and drilled above the ground. In the mid-air between the two trees, they have entangled themselves into a twisted, knotted root bush. From a distance, Go, its shape is like two people hugging each other so passionately that they merge into one.

Above the root bush, a row of crows with red eyes twisted their black wings and pecked at the remains of their companions with their long bloody beaks.

"It seems that not only living people, but also animals and plants are affected by the energy field."

Dean rubbed his chin and began to clear his mind.

"The biggest secret in the cemetery is this magical energy field, and the energy field is strongest near the two tombstones. It stands to reason that the generation of the energy field should have some connection with the deceased in the grave."

"If we find their missing bodies, we may be able to find out the source of this energy field."

"At that time, we will follow the clues to find the entrance to Midian."

Dean thought in his mind, the "blood relationship" in the system jumped to 91%, and a prompt appeared in front of him - triggering the event "Missing Mother and Son"

Find out the whereabouts of Bonnie and Arnie Grapp, who are buried in the cemetery east of Peace River.

Event Difficulty: Unknown

Progress: (2%)
Reward: Unknown

……

"Go back to town first to understand the basic situation of the mother and son."

Dean made a decision and turned to Christine, who was leaning against the maple tree next to her. Her cheeks were as hot as the sunset, and her watery eyes were blurry.

Her willpower and physical strength are far inferior to Dean, and the impact of the energy field is much more severe.
"Kenny, it's so hot...I feel dizzy...has the temperature increased?"

"There's something wrong with this place. You should take a rest first."

Dean snapped his fingers, and Kristen closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Then Dean heard a fierce wolf howl coming from the south of the cemetery, and teleported there with the girl.

Under the low night sky, the pure white snow was dyed a sad and bright red.

Two nocturnal species and two vampires showed their fangs and claws, and their eyes were red as they lay on several wolf corpses that had been torn into pieces, destroying them.

Sean raised a wolf head with his sharp claws, and with a violent and cruel smile, he drank from the falling blood fountain.

"What are you doing?"

Dean's voice was like a muffled thunder exploding above the head. The four people who were eating frantically trembled in shock. The bloodshot eyes and animalistic features on their faces faded away.
"Sorry, man...these wolves suddenly burst out of the dusk and attacked us, and I couldn't help but launch a counterattack."

"My whole body is hot and my mind is in a state of turmoil." Boon nodded his eyebrows with a livid face. "Soon after entering the cemetery, this area became more and more painful, as if something was trying to come out. There is only killing, destruction, and eating. It only relieves this pain..."

Monica and Peter also wiped the blood from the corners of their mouths with palpitations.

Dean's God's perspective swept through, and there were strange redness and bulges in the center of the four people's eyebrows and on the outside of their skulls, and the light of life became chaotic and disorderly like crows in the cemetery.

"This energy field not only affects the mind and spirit, but also interferes with the physical body... Let's leave the cemetery first and go back to the town to find out the situation."
