Mystery: The Last Shepherd

Chapter 125 Chaotic Contamination and Loss of Control

At noon, the sky was dark.

Before the gates of Blackthorn Security Company, sprawling black threads filled the entire space, cold and silent. The dense black threads chased after a figure at the center, the bone-chilling cold slowing the figure's movements and numbing their spirit.

Flames occasionally rose around the figure, allowing it to "jump" to the other side in this way, often rendering the carefully woven net of black threads useless. However, when it tried to escape the threads, the threads would immediately accelerate, forcing it back to the center.

The situation was somewhat deadlocked.

Dunn Smith watched the situation unfold, his hand gripping the urn tightly, exposing the glittering black stardust within to the air. Because the urn had been kept open, a thin layer of frost had settled on his eyebrows and temples.

His expression grew increasingly serious, for as time passed, the monster's body was slowly recovering. Exposed flesh was covered by skin, and the woman's face on its abdomen moved upward, replacing Lu Ze's original face.

Her ceremony is about to be completed!

She's going to become a real shepherd!
Dunn, Klein, and Leonard, who were present, all realized the truth at the same time.

Ms. M slowly opened her eyes. The image of a man's body topped with a woman's face was extremely strange, but she looked quite happy. Bright red flesh and blood gushed out from her body, enveloping her and transforming into a mysterious, bright red robe.

A dark shadow formed beneath her feet, swaying as if it were unreal, almost surreal.

The black threads that had been tangled together suddenly recoiled under the shadow, as if frightened by something terrifying, and retreated rapidly.

Saint Selena's ashes have expired!

"How is this going!"

Leonard exclaimed in surprise, and Klein was also speechless with shock. He clutched the [Sunfire] talisman in his pocket tightly, unsure of when to use it.

Seeing the panic of the three night watchmen, Ms. M smiled even more brightly and opened her palms.

"Zizi!"

Crimson flames immediately appeared in her palm, and the illusory shadow beneath her feet swayed slightly. The flames quickly grew larger, transforming into countless fire crows that swarmed towards them like a tidal wave.

"boom!"

The flames were incredibly intense and their sheer number was astonishing, almost covering the entire area, leaving the three night watchmen with no way to escape!

The explosion echoed through the street, the air distorted by the intense heat. As the smoke cleared, she saw that most of the front of Blackthorn Security Company had been destroyed, the floor was melted, and the steps were broken. Only one area remained intact. Dunn held the urn in front of him, the black threads gathering together, the spreading chill warding off the flames.

Powerful, terrifying!
The three of them were filled with shock.

This is not the scale that an ordinary arsonist could set off!

What exactly happened to her?
Ms. M looked at her masterpiece, unable to suppress the smile on her face. This was merely a routine experiment after she gained access to the body; she hadn't yet taken it seriously.

"Ha ha ha ha."

Feeling the powerful energy within her body, even though she was very good at hiding her emotions, she finally couldn't help but let out a joyful laugh.

Hope and power have now fallen into her hands!
She laughed so hard her body trembled, as if nothing could stop her, until—

"Clap."

A sound came from below. Ms. M looked down and saw a piece of flesh on the ground.

The illusory shadow, beyond her control, spread out and greedily devoured the piece of flesh. The color of this piece of flesh seemed somewhat familiar.
Ms. M subconsciously touched her face, as if she felt a wet, slippery sensation somewhere. Looking down at her fingers, she saw that they were covered in blood.

"what"

Her eyes widened suddenly, and her laughter stopped abruptly.

On the illusory beach, Lu Ze struggled and resisted. But it was clear that one person's strength was no match for the attack of six. He was quickly subdued, entangled by these filthy, disgusting, and bloated bodies, and fell into the sea, gradually sinking.

The six bodies were like heavy anchors, dragging him down to the deepest part of the sea.

Ms. M watched with a smile as Lu Ze sank into the illusory, viscous, dark seawater until he disappeared completely.

Looking around, on this vast and boundless sea, only her solitary figure remained.

"Finally, it belongs to me."

She closed her eyes, spread her arms, and felt the entire chaotic body of water.

The sound of the ocean waves was so peaceful and melodious, echoing in her mind.
wrong.

It wasn't the sound of the ocean waves.

No, no ...
Ms. M suddenly noticed something was wrong.

No, no ...
As Lu Ze's figure sank into the depths of the sea, this area gradually became unfamiliar.

Completely unfamiliar!

sea?
water?
Seawater, the sound of the tide, white mist
That wasn't seawater! It was countless chaotic, indescribable, foul-smelling liquids, viscous, heavy, and pitch black, mixed with unbearable spiritual imprints, as if countless living beings, after death, had been unable to find peace for billions of years, forever entangled together, and eternally in extreme pain!
That's not the sound of the tide! It's the shrill screams of countless beings praying for a moment of relief in the purgatory of despair; it's the extreme reaction produced in the spiritual world as skin is peeled off, flesh is torn apart, bones are broken, and nerves are frantically rubbed against rough sand and gravel!

That wasn't white mist! It was the aftershocks of the sea, an active barrier created to protect its original owner! As the original owner's consciousness sank into the sea, the white mist dissipated. Ms. M stared in horror, unable to look away. She saw, above the white mist, a gigantic, ethereal silhouette peering at her from beyond the sky.
"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

Ms. M screamed, as if a soul-crushing cry was emanating from the depths of her being.

"boom!"

An explosion rang out, and on the sea surface, her beautiful and exquisite body rapidly expanded, exploding into a cloud of blood mist.

The blood rushed into the sea, where it was quickly diluted and eventually disappeared.

After briefly possessing a portion of this endless ocean, Ms. M suffered a mental breakdown.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

In front of the Blackthorn Security Company's gate, the three night watchmen were in dire straits. Ms. M's simple action had an astonishing effect. Some incomprehensible power made her extremely strong, instantly filling the three night watchmen with despair.

However, something unexpected happened soon afterward.

Ms. M only unleashed her divine power briefly before letting out a piercing scream. Her body disintegrated with the screams, turning into a horrible mass that barely resembled a human body. Her face was forced open, and Lu Ze's face emerged from within, followed by even more faces—the faces of those who had offered their bodies!
"Has the potion gone out of control? Or is Luze rebelling?"

Klein's eyes lit up.

In either case, they have hope!
