final catastrophe

Chapter 319 3. Survivor

The land of ghosts and myths.

Flying skins, minced meat, and ruins all over the sky.

There is a rare moment when the sky is twilight, the gloom of the sky is slightly thinner, and a few rays of light hang down from it, like long golden chopsticks stuck in the liquid. The liquid has different concentrations and is swaying all the time. Weird twist.

The iron sheet on the ruins somewhere suddenly moved, a pale hand stretched out, tentatively groped, and then buckled on the soil.

The back of the hand is quite peculiar, with a circle of deep and bottomless cold engravings, the engravings are lifelike, as if hidden under the flesh and blood on the back of the hand, but covered by a thin film.

chirp
The iron skin of the ruins was supported by the pale hand, and slowly moved to one side, revealing the damp steps below and the "man" lying on the steps.

He said he was a man, but he didn't look like him. He could only be vaguely distinguished from his shriveled face and figure.

The "man" probed his head slowly, and looked around very quickly. His eyes fixed on a certain place among the ruins, which was originally a granary.

Seemingly having made up his mind, the man suddenly climbed out of the cellar and ran towards the granary.

But when he ran to the granary, he paused and didn't stop completely, but continued to run forward, regardless of the sound he made. The sound spread and was especially clear in the dead and silent world.

Like a hornet's nest being smashed, the quiet world suddenly thought of misty laughter, as well as sharp, chaotic, muffled sounds similar to bone fractures or heavy objects hitting the head.

Soon, an inexplicable voice came from a distance, "Come here, it's still safe, come here. Hee hee hee"

The man still had a heartbeat, but it was beating very fast.

He naturally understood that the owner of this voice was not a human being at all, but devoured the human being who called out like this before dying, and if he learned the language rashly, he would be throwing himself into a trap.

It has been a while since he became a ghost engraver of Yiyin, and he can barely make ends meet by hiding in the cellar, and because of the nearby granary, he can barely make ends meet.

What's more, the cellar is a small gathering place for ghosts.

In addition to Princess Yeyan, who already had two ghost carvings, there were also Zhao Wutong, Zhong Xiaoyan, and Qian Xuanming.

It was considered safe at first, and they spent almost a year together without incident.

But today, it seems that something unexpected happened.

Because, can't stop! !
He had already arrived at the granary, so he should bend down to get the food, and then retreat quickly, but his body seemed out of control.

There was a look of horror in the man's eyes.

The engraving on the back of his hand, which was hidden under the membrane, began to rotate, and soon his right hand became bloody, exposing the bones and five fingers.

This is ghost carving!
Those swordsmanship and saber techniques that I have learned before are not effective against ghosts at all.

No matter how powerful the internal force is, no matter how powerful the brute force is, it can't hurt the evil spirits. Some of them are pierced by swords, like falling on phantoms, and some are clearly pierced, but the evil spirits seem to be unaware of it.

So tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of troops, when facing the evil spirits, are almost fighting against the air, but the evil spirits are killing wildly without restraint.

This is the land abandoned by the gods.

But abandoned by the gods and blessed by demons, a very small number of lucky ones were corroded by ghosts and formed this wonderful carving pattern attached to the body.

This name: ghost carving.

And why only a small number of people can have it, and more people will weaken and die even if they are eroded by ghost energy?

The concubine named Ye Yan was well-informed and read a lot of books. During the year of living here, she once made inferences.

To be eroded by ghost energy and form engravings requires at least two conditions.

First, one's own luck, or Yang Qi, is completely deprived.

Second, species talent.

Qian Xuanming, who was good at thinking at the time, once asked: "How can there be species differences for the same human beings?"

Ye Yan said: "I have read a lot of books, and there are similar records in ancient books. Although it is obscure, it is alluding to a big secret."

"What secret?"

"People are different, just because there is an object called 'primary cause' carried in the body is different."

"First because?"

"Yes, the first cause contains some characteristics of the existence of extremely ancient times, and I once heard the queen unintentionally explain that the word first cause also came from her.

The difference in the initial cause leads to the difference between people, and some initial causes have affinity with this ghost energy, and all of them will produce ghost moments.

The rest who are not compatible will weaken and die. "

"Then why didn't we notice it in the peaceful and prosperous age? Or dig it?"

Qian Xuanming used to be a peripheral member of Duoshouhui in Tianzhong Jiuhui, so he was not surprised to hear such a secret. After all, the mysterious texture borrowed by Duoshouhui also has a similar theory.

At this time, he just hopes to learn more about this power called "Ghost Carving", after all, this is the basis for his future survival.

Ye Yan pondered for a moment, and said: "Maybe it's luck, or our human qi will completely suppress the original cause, but the arrival of this ghost provides a hotbed for 'evolution' for people like us."

At the mention of 'evolution', several people were stunned.

Is this evolution?
And, besides their gathering place, are there any other survivors?

What about the other survivors?
The man's right hand, which had turned into bones, had already been grabbed out, and it stayed in the void like the arm of an evil spirit. A seal of ghost carving can naturally hide one's aura, making it impossible for the evil spirit to find him with his breath.

But presumably they are just some elementary ghosts.

The man felt that his body suddenly stopped still, and as the bone's right hand was revealed, the strong suction force disappeared.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

Start to retreat back slowly.

This way of using it will completely turn your right hand into a bone, and then you need enough time to recuperate before Ghost Ke can be reborn.

In other words, after he uses the power of "Ghost Carving" at this time, unless he keeps using it, he will "heal". During the healing period, he can no longer use it until the healing is complete and Ghost Carving returns to its original state.

This period is longer, usually three to five weeks.

But the man did not regret using it at this time. If he was not decisive, he might have been pulled into the darkness by the strange suction, and then he would be dismembered, skinned, stitched, or sewn up.
He has seen too much.

He breathed a sigh of relief, and the ghostly development made him look like an evil ghost, without the slightest trace of popularity, and his pupils constricted, his eyes fixed on the front.

There was no one in front of it, only a piece of dilapidated skin was pierced by the iron thorns of the ruins, and then it was blown by the wind blowing from the corner.

Find some food and hurry back.

Men make up their minds.
