"Cough cough cough, cough cough cough..." Dilis's coughing became louder and louder, as if she couldn't stop it.
At the same time, coughing sounds were heard from other neighbors' homes one after another, as if they were infected with an incurable disease.
As for Eris, she also clutched her chest and felt a tightness in her chest.
Soon, Eris realized one thing. The cough did not appear out of thin air. It was because of the fog, the haze over Backlund. And the haze was not the real cause. Someone had used extraordinary abilities to affect this area. This is at least a semi-god-level Beyonder.
Eris is fully aware of the harm that extraordinary abilities can do to ordinary people. She was once a deity, and mortals would die directly just by appearing near her because of the faint curse emanating from her body.
In fact, death is already the best ending. There are many possibilities and changes, which are far more difficult to accept than death.
Eris realized that she couldn't go on like this and she had to seek help.
Eris knew that there was an Extraordinary bazaar nearby. She had seen many transactions of Extraordinary materials there. This bazaar should also be allowed by Backlund and Roen tacitly.
As long as you go there and find an extraordinary person, an extraordinary person of the Medicine Master path, you can cure such a disease.
Eris hurriedly took out all the money from the place where she usually hid her money. If there was no money, it would be impossible to buy the extraordinary potion directly!
After all, making those potions actually costs money.
However, what Eris didn't expect was that when she opened the corners where the money was hidden, she found nothing.
The money seemed to disappear out of thin air.
Of course, the gold pound could not disappear out of thin air. It should be where the money was needed in the past few days, so the money was taken away.
She usually doesn't care about money, although she has thought about becoming an extraordinary person before, which requires money to buy extraordinary materials.
But she never thought about stealing the family's savings.
So even though she knew where the money was hidden, she never opened it and looked through it.
Eris looked at her mother who fell on the ground. She was already dying. Her breathing became weaker and weaker, and her eyes seemed to be about to lose focus.
Eris knew that he was already dying, and that this disease was coming too quickly and violently.
Eris herself was actually infected by the disease, but she was once a god, and although she was now reborn as a little girl, she was still quite special, just as beautiful as she was when she was born.
Even if Eris' body is disturbed by a disease, she can control her body and prevent herself from coughing violently. She can also activate her immune system to help her resist the disease without causing a lot of damage to her body. on the premise of resisting this disease.
Eris hesitated for a second, then ran out of the house.
She was going to the Extraordinary Market. Even if she owed money first, she had to bring the potion back and rescue Dilis.
However, while walking on the road, Eris realized the damage caused by this heavy smog to Backlund.
Everywhere on the roadside, you can see mortals lying on the ground, dying. Before they fell to the ground, they were all doing their own work. Even if they were extremely tired, the money they earned after working for a day was not enough for them to eat a few meals. Rice, even if they are so humble, they still live humbly.
But now, if they cannot get timely treatment, death is the only outcome.
Because these poor people usually do not have good food and clothing, and even a full night's sleep is a luxury, so the health of their bodies can be imagined. Once they are invaded by diseases, it can easily bring down the entire body. , let yourself die weakly.
Eris no longer cares about these ordinary people. In fact, she has nothing to do. If she had her way, Dilis would not be lying on the ground.
If the haze continues to spread, Eris himself will die in the past period of time.
Of course, the scope of the smog is definitely not unlimited. If Eris gives up her original plan and leaves this area and goes to a safe place without smog, she can still continue to live and recover her health. .
This thought came to Eris's mind. She moved her steps a little, and then continued walking towards the location of the Beyonder Market.
Eris noticed a change in herself. If it were her before, that Him, she would be a body completely dominated by divinity and believe in the Mother Goddess wholeheartedly. His actions only follow two principles, one is the Mother Goddess The instructions given are one of divine restraint.
So if He encounters this situation, without the Mother Goddess giving an order.
The first thing he did was to leave the area immediately so that he could survive.
But now, survival seems to be no longer her first priority in this world?
Could it be that this is what mortals call human nature?
An unprecedented feeling and impulse filled her chest.
Eris's steps slowly began to become heavier, and finally, she came to the trading market.
And she was lucky enough to find a pharmacist. In fact, Eris already knew about the pharmacist's existence. She knew the other person's profession when she first saw him.
Eris trudged to the pharmacist's shop, opened the door, and saw the pharmacist preparing a bottle of potion. A scent of fragrance hit her face, and Eris felt her heavy body relax a little.
Antidote!
There is no doubt that this is the antidote to the diseases caused by the great smog!
Eris spoke and said to the pharmacist: "I, I want a bottle of medicine. I can buy it with money."
The pharmacist was at the critical moment of preparing the medicine and had to concentrate, so he didn't pay attention to Eris immediately.
Eris felt that as time passed by, her mood became more and more irritable and uneasy.
Finally, when the potion configuration is completed.
The pharmacist turned to look at Eris, a girl he had seen before, in this market.
The pharmacist showed a kind expression and said: "Of course, the medicines are prepared for sale! As long as you have money, you can buy any number of medicines. The diseases caused by the haze in this weather are likely to be caused by to some extraordinary ability.
Therefore, the potion must be prepared by an extraordinary person like me to be effective. So, how much money did you bring?
For fifty gold pounds, this potion is yours. Your body is very good and healthy. With this potion, you can live safely until the haze dissipates. "
"I didn't bring any money, but I can owe it, and I will pay it back..." When Eris said this, he saw the pharmacist's expression change.
He stared at Eris for a while, looked at her somewhat shabby clothes, and muttered: "Turns out you are a poor devil, get out of here quickly, my potions are all for sale, you have no money to buy them at all, get out, Run to the west so you can still survive."
However, Eris's purpose is not to survive at all.
She took something out of her sleeve.
It was a sharp knife. On the way here, she saw a gang member lying on the ground, so she took it out of his pocket.
Eris may have realized from that moment that she would need this dagger later.
"Wait, wait!" Seeing this short knife, the pharmacist was a little panicked. Although he was an extraordinary person, he did not have the strength and speed beyond ordinary people, nor did he have the extraordinary ability to increase combat effectiveness. All he had was making potions. Ability.
Facing a girl holding a sharp knife, even if he is an adult male, he still instinctively feels a little scared.
"Okay, you can take this bottle of potion back, but remember you owe me fifty gold pounds!" The pharmacist put the potion bottle on the table and took a few steps back with his hands raised, signaling that he would not attack.
Eris walked up, put the potion into his pocket, and ran out with the sharp knife.
On the way, she saw that the Extraordinary Market was now sparsely populated, because the haze came so suddenly, and many people in the shops fell ill without having time to prepare.
In the absence of supervision, some people who are lucky enough not to be weak due to illness buy directly in the market for 0 yuan.
Eris saw a shop, and there was a person lying at the door. He was the clerk of the shop. He didn't know how this clerk was an Extraordinary. Or was he not an Extraordinary, but just employed by an Extraordinary?
She remembered that she had seen the extraordinary materials of the Prisoner Sequence in this shop.
If you enter this shop now, you can obtain those materials, prepare the potion yourself, and become an Extraordinary again, even if it is just a Sequence Nine Extraordinary.
Eris's steps didn't even pause. She ran quickly towards home.
When she returned outside, she only saw her door being vaguely opened. She remembered clearly that she had closed all the doors and windows when she left, in order to prevent the haze from outside from pouring in. , this can give Dilis some more time.
But now the door is open.
For the first time since birth, Eris experienced what it means to be uneasy.
She walked into the house and finally saw two people lying in each other's arms not far from the door.
Her father and mother.
The two people's bodies have lost vital signs.
Death is a disease that cannot be cured by any medicine.
There was a pitter-pattering sound outside the window, and it was raining.
The roar of thunderstorms drives away diseases, and the rain washes away the smog.
The tears from the corners of Eris's eyes fell to the ground, mixing with the rain.
In the next few days, Eris took care of her parents' funeral arrangements with the help of relatives.
No one knows how many people were killed by this smog.
Eris opened the gift box left by Dilis. She saw that there were some special materials in the gift box, extraordinary materials, and they were the main materials for Prisoner Path Sequence Nine.
But why can mother afford such extraordinary materials? She didn't know, maybe it was her parents' savings of more than ten years?
Or maybe my father won the lottery?
In short, this much money could have supported Eris and his family to move out of here and live in a better community.
But Eris once asked about those extraordinary materials in the market, and some acquaintances probably revealed it to Dilis and the others.
Did it make them change their minds?
Eris has always known that both her mother Dilis and her father Farai have always felt that they owed her.
They think they were angels once, but they can't bring themselves a better life.
Therefore, after they learned that they wanted those extraordinary materials, they used the money they had finally saved to buy these things for themselves.
Eris took out the extraordinary material, looked at the scenery outside the window expressionlessly, and then she swallowed the extraordinary material directly.
There were no other auxiliary materials, nor was it mixed into a magic potion. She swallowed it directly and successfully became an extraordinary person.
Alien Pathway, Sequence Nine, Prisoner.
Eris said slowly: "The mind is the prisoner of the body, and the body is the prisoner of the world."
Is the bound madness and repressed desire accumulated and imprisoned, or is it released?
All kinds of crazy desires kept popping up in Eris's mind, and she learned many criminal skills without any teacher. For example, she could use wires to pry open doors or safes, climb from corners to enter other people's yards, and use daggers to sneak into other people's yards. She can silently open other people's pockets and take away the money inside, or even use methods to kill people. Whether she is professionally using a dagger to commit suicide, mixing poison, or even using stones picked up casually on the street, she can easily kill an ordinary person. die.
And this desire is spreading and gathering in her heart.
In Eris's mind, webs were woven one by one to gather, bind, and suppress all these desires.
Her thinking became normal, she was no longer so violent, and she no longer thought about how to commit crimes or kill people all the time.
This is the concept and technique of the temperance school.
As the leader of the Rose School and the Indulgence School, she was very familiar with the ideas of the Temperance School, and the Temperance School had never hidden the methods of tempering desires and restraining desires that had been researched by their own sect.
Therefore, Eris is completely familiar with these concepts and techniques and can easily use them.
Although she used to be so disdainful of the concepts and ideas of these Temperance Schools, she regarded them as resistance to her unification of the Rose School.
Then, Eris imprisoned those desires deep in her heart. She was like a prisoner, imprisoning these crazy desires and imprisoning herself. In less than two weeks, the prisoner potion had been completely digested by her. .
She began to think of ways to purchase Sequence 8, the extraordinary material for the madman's potion.
At the same time, Eris also began to slowly and secretly investigate the truth of this smog.
Eris had long determined that this great smog was caused by extraordinary factors. No extraordinary person would massacre civilians whose lives were extremely difficult for no reason, unless the other party was an extraordinary person who was already crazy and out of control.
But if it is really that kind of extraordinary person, then there will not be any living creatures left in the civilian area.
No matter who it is, they will die under the heavy haze, even she is not surprised.
However, so many people still survived. There must be something behind this incident that ordinary people cannot even imagine.
Eris must find out the truth of the matter.
Later, she came to a tavern, and she learned through some channels that there was also a gathering of Extraordinaries here. Although the scope was not as large as the previous market in the civilian area, the people who came here were all real Extraordinaries.
Maybe she can know some truth here.
