Chapter 9 I...Dead

At night, in the study, Chen Yi looked at the bottle of potion and waited quietly.

Chen Yi has been waiting since she got home. Before she knew it, the town had already reached the curfew time, and there were guards checking whether the lights were turned off just now.

dong dong.

There was a knock on the door outside.

Chen Yi quickly stood up, walked out of the study, and looked out through the gap.

He was dressed in a black linen robe, and his face was covered by cloth, leaving only his eyes outside. The uncovered gap showed that his skin was festering.

"This attire, the festering skin is Kasim."

He really came to find himself.

Chen Yi frowned, seeing Kasim raising his hand to knock on the door, his movements were hasty and nervous.

Pushing open the door, and bumping into Kasim's panicked face, Chen Yi asked solemnly, "Kasim, why...?"

Kasim hurriedly made a "shh" gesture, the holy picture pendant around his neck was shaking, and said in a low voice: "I came here while my father was not paying attention, I ran out of time, let me go in first."

After hesitating for a moment, thinking about what happened today, Chen Yi turned sideways and let him walk into the house.

"What happened?"

Chen Yi stared at Kasim who hurried in, who gathered his robe and pondered for a long time.

He said abruptly: "Chen Yi, I advise you to leave Resurrection Town as soon as possible, the sooner the better, leave tomorrow, you, Idle, and Roman should be the only ones left who haven't been corrupted by my father. "

Kasim's words were too vague.

Chen Yi questioned: "What do you mean? What erosion?"

"That word, that was a magic ritual!" The leper raised his face upon hearing this, his eyes were bloodshot, and said, "That was a ritual to summon an evil god, damn it, the students who saw that word were all dominated by him, I Not sure why but you and I both know that my father is a puppet master."

"Don't get excited, Kasim, I'm listening, calm down." Chen Yi hurriedly said.

".It was a magic ritual, a weird magic ritual. I don't know what he learned from that ancient book. The only thing I know is that he has done whatever it takes to cure my illness, and he will not hesitate to harm you."

Chen Yi suddenly became nervous, and hurriedly asked, "What?"

"You don't know what I've been through!"

Kasim tore off the robe on one of his arms, and Chen Yi looked at his forearm in surprise, it was not an arm with yellow and festered skin, but a forearm that was intact, a forearm that a leper should not have.

And his big arm was still festered, yellowed and blackened, and the skin was not completely visible.

Under the contrast of the two, Chen Yi gasped.

Kasim grabbed his forearm, as if holding something ominous, and tremblingly said: "Everything starts from that night. Leprosy has always been an incurable disease. I also knew that my life was not long, but .Suddenly one day, a very normal day, after my wife fed me the medicine, I prayed at night as usual, and halfway through the prayer. I was so sleepy that I couldn't hold on and fell asleep."

Chen Yi's brows were solemn, and she listened quietly.

"I prayed to the King of Kings every night to protect my father, my elder brother and my wife. You know, I have long given up hope for my illness."

Kasim's voice was very low, and his Adam's apple trembled in panic: "The next day, I suddenly discovered that the skin on my hand was intact as before. The skin was what it was. I was thanking God all day anyway, and my wife was looking at me and smiling."

Chen Yi's doubts were heavy: "Is it intact as before?"

Kasim took a deep look at Chen Yi, and then said: "I thought it was a manifestation of the gods. I thought so at first. Everyone said that this town is a place blessed by the gods, and I heard it from time to time. A miracle appeared."

Chen Yi made no expression.

"Later, my other forearm was also intact. I thanked God even more humbly. From morning to night, my wife advised me not to do this. I scolded her at that time. That night... I felt more sleepy" and then , Kasim laughed mockingly, "I thought it was a sign of the gods' apparition."

Kasim swallowed his saliva: "I tried to stay up, I wanted to see what an angel looks like, it's not an angel at all!"

He turned his head, his eyes were red and said: "I saw that I was tied to the bed, my father cut off the skin of his apprentice, chanted a spell, and stuck to me piece by piece!"

Chen Yi was shocked, and the back of her neck felt cold.

"My wife, she was the first to find out that I was awake. She is a magic puppet. She has been my father's accomplice! She looked at me and smiled slightly." Kasim couldn't suppress his fear, and raised his voice: "Then Not only him, those apprentices, my father, they all turned to look at me, all smiling!"

Chen Yi couldn't help being infected by the fear in Kasim's tone.

"My father confessed everything to me. He said that he found a way to save me in the book. He said that all I need to do is glue my skin, choose the most spiritual skin from different people, and glue it on! Then..." Ka Sim paused for a moment, "Use a blood sacrifice...to get in touch with the terrifying evil god who doesn't know where, and I will be able to regain my life."

"I pretended to agree with my father, and with my father, he learned this from some blasphemous ancient book, and his consciousness was eroded by that forbidden knowledge, and he used that weird ritual to dominate almost all the apprentices. Ordinarily, they are no different from ordinary people. But if my father wants to, he can immediately dominate them."

Kasim's tone was extremely desperate, "I can't stop him, he is the only wizard in the town. I can only try my best to find apprentices who are not corrupted by him. Let them go quickly."

Kasim turned his head and said sadly: "I'm going to find Idle. He shouldn't be under control, at least I haven't seen him among those apprentices. Let's go, Chen Yi, my father is crazy, he wants to Bring a spiritual person to a blood sacrifice! Tonight, he will make his first sacrifice!"

Leaving this warning behind, Kasim hurriedly got up, and after simply answering a few questions from Chen Yi, he hurried away in the dark.

Chen Yi's face was solemn, the visions in the academy today and yesterday, and Kasim's warning despite the curfew.
This is absolutely not allowed to be underestimated.

And the last deduction. The witchcraft manuscript of unknown origin fell into the hands of Lucius, which also made me believe in Kasim's words more.

"Go back to the Kingdom of God first, and play through Resurrection Town to see what happens."

Chen Yi turned around and entered the room, returning to the sea of ​​clouds with thousands of pillars.

Stopping in the town of resurrection, Chen Yi raised her hand to call out the phantom of the town of resurrection.

Awakening the phantom, he began to deduce.

"It's still the ancient witchcraft manuscript that fell into the hands of Lucius."

The same start, this time it still fell into the hands of Lucius.

It has also fallen into the hands of others before, but the ending is also the predetermined destruction.

Chen Yi didn't find it strange that the phantom in Resurrection Town continued to operate.

"In the Academy of Magic, Lucius found me. Is that bottle of leprosy potion in his hand?! He forced me to drink it on the spot."

Click, click, click.

Within 30 seconds, the phantom in Resurrection Town stopped, as if the pause button had been pressed.

Chen Yi was stunned, and after waiting for a long time, the phantom showed no sign of resuming operation.

"What's going on?" Chen Yi couldn't figure it out, zoomed in on the phantom, and looked at every place full of doubts.

For a moment, her eyes fell on her own home. Hedwig, who was dressed in mourning and with tears on her cheeks, knelt in front of the icon in grief.

Inside the house, the bloodless young man lay quietly, with a ferocious face that could not be healed!

The phantom appeared as it really was, and a large hole with dried blood was opened in the stomach of his body, and the tearing marks were in the shape of biting, not from the outside to the inside, but from the inside to the outside!

"I am dead?"

Chen Yi watched all this in disbelief.
