The soul-tracing incense floats slowly in the room and has a calming effect on people.
The blue smoke outlines the shape of a female soul on Maggie's still-undissipated remains.
The "body" of the evil spirit is the growth of resentment. After the evil spirit is expelled, the spirit body is freed from this bondage just like leaving the physical body.
Catherine closed her eyes, relying on the incense as a bond, and began to watch Maggie's memories...
The time to trace the soul is extremely long. The three Seans, who were on alert, never noticed any threats - everything went smoothly.
He turned back to see Catherine's condition, but saw tears seemingly flowing out from under the blood-stained maid's mask.
The always strong Katherine Haley actually cried?
Sean's face was even more surprised than seeing an angel: What on earth did Catherine see in Maggie's memory?
After another ten minutes, Sean heard Catherine groan - the retrieval was over.
He quickly walked to Catherine and asked, "Why are you crying? What did you see?"
Catherine waved her hand: "Let's talk about this after the mission."
She raised her voice a little, but her voice was still a little tired: "We made a mistake."
All three looked at the captain, and Catherine began to describe what she saw...
She dived into Maggie's memory and saw many scenes that would make ordinary people nervous.
She saw the numerous evil deeds committed by Finks' men, but she never saw the scene where they stole the organs of gang members.
Just when she was about to give up, she saw Maggie seeing a living figure in the busiest part of Undercurrent Street.
Catherine had a deep impression on that living person - because that was the person with the most horrific corpse image in the autopsy report given by Bill.
Former gang member Chadillan "Black Bullet" Newgain.
At that time, Maggie coveted fresh human bodies and souls, so her eyes were always fixed on Chadilon.
Catherine could tell that Chadilon was not hypnotized at that time, because his body movements looked nervous, but his eyes were darting around, and he was obviously nervous.
Moreover, there was a "guide" from Undercurrent Street walking in front of him.
Under normal circumstances, evil spirits will not attack humans brought by "guides", because they must have been invited by a high-ranking evil spirit, or even a fallen one, to come here.
Catherine saw in Maggie's field of vision that the guide brought Chadilon into the "Brimstone Tavern".
After a long time, Maggie saw Chad Dillon walking out of the tavern.
His walking posture was crazy, as if he was lost. Since he had lost his eyeball, he had to put his hand on the guide's shoulder and walked back to Thirteenth Avenue...
"They entered Undercurrent Street voluntarily?!" Sean's voice was a little loud due to surprise.
Catherine nodded slowly: "Although it sounds ridiculous, it is true.
"Although we took some detours, we know the murderer who stole the organs is in the Sulfur Tavern..."
In the moonlight on the side, I saw Henry gently flicking the playing cards in his hand with his fingers. Shen Sheng said: "Then what are you waiting for? Let's go directly to the tavern to find the murderer. Finish the matter early and leave here early. I really don't want to stay in this ghost place anymore."
After all, he was only Jack-level, and Henry's spirit seemed to be stretched to the limit.
Purifying Maggie's soul will cause fluctuations in the spiritual ring. This mysterious power similar to fate will disturb all evil things in Wannu Cave, including Phinks.
Therefore, Catherine did not perform purification, but just let Maggie's soul stay in the room - not long after, she will slowly degenerate into a wraith due to her previous resentment, but before that, the evil spirits in Wannu Cave will not You will find yourself in a row.
Catherine gathered her emotions, inhaled some smelling salts, then stood up and continued to lead the three of them outside.
While walking around the Ten Thousand Slaves' Cave, Sean found that Catherine's state was different from before - she became more silent and determined.
Sean couldn't help but feel curious: "In addition to checking Dylan's whereabouts, what did he see in Maggie's memory? Why did he tell me after the mission?"
The departure speed was much faster than the aimless exploration at the beginning. They soon returned to the gate of the "big factory" and once again walked into the fog-filled and bone-filled wasteland.
After arriving outside, Catherine returned to her "Bloody Lisa" state, continued to ring the soul-attracting bell, and led the three "cargoes" deep into the thick fog - this would not attract too much attention, and the acquisition of souls It is common to have trouble negotiating the price of your body.
On the way back to the downtown area, they encountered those bright-eyed unknown things swimming in the fog, like piranha fish swimming by in the deep sea. The four of them stopped.
Strangely, those eyes that were like lights in the fog actually stopped.
Then, it quickly ran away in the direction it came from.
Catherine stopped ringing the bell and made a stop and concealment gesture. The surroundings fell into silence, and the three explorers looked at the captain with confusion.
Catherine turned around, her movements obviously a little nervous. Before she could speak, the three of them heard a sound.
There were heavy footsteps like ramming the ground, and a chaotic murmur.
Catherine suppressed her voice to the lowest level: "The long-lost one, Erx!"
"Don't let him find us!"
The four of them lowered their bodies, as if lying on the ground, with their spiritual power, limbs and breathing restrained to the extreme.
From a distance, Sean saw a ball of black flames burning wantonly. Those flames burned through the fog. Among the flames that were constantly changing their shapes, a tall male figure could be seen walking step by step.
"Is that Erx, a being close to an evil god?"
As if covered by the shadow of dark clouds in the sky, Sean suddenly found that his senses seemed to be suppressed. Apart from shadows and depression, he could not feel much.
In the gloom, he saw the tall Erx walking slowly on the wasteland, with countless dark green tentacles trailing behind him, entangled and squirming, as if countless pythons were following him, and they seemed to be alive. long hair.
He kept mumbling crazy nonsense, as if he was analyzing the origins and fate of everything in this complex world.
Sean remembered the description of him: Erkes had been walking and thinking on Undercurrent Street without stopping.
Suddenly, the existence that Sean and others could never reach, Erx, who almost never stopped, stopped in the thick fog not far away.
He slowly turned his head and glanced at Sean with the white hole-like eyes on his chaotic black face.
The meaning in those eyes was extremely complex and profound. In this unexpected moment of looking at each other, Sean suddenly felt lonely, depressed, and everything was meaningless.
For a moment, he felt that life was a fallacy.
Sean suddenly realized that Erx glanced at his "divine root".
At the moment of eye contact, Sean actually understood Erx's ancient raving:
"Divine calamity, variables...appeared here...maybe it heralds the beginning of the next era?"
For a moment, Sean was worried that the ancient being in front of him would covet the secrets deep in his soul.
However, he found that Erkes was just a passerby, or witness. Although he saw something, he just observed quietly without any thoughts or actions to intervene. After a moment, he moved on.
Only after the Lost One left for about five minutes did the team members dare to take a deep breath.
Catherine turned around and said in confusion: "He seems to have seen us?
"This does not match the description. In all witness reports, if you don't provoke him, he ignores everything around him..."
Catherine said to herself: "This must be stated in the subsequent mission report, maybe this means there will be some changes in "Erks"..."
Only Sean knew why the Lost Man stopped and looked at him. However, he had no need to explain, so he remained silent.
"He just mentioned divine calamity, variables and so on..." Sean thought in a daze, "What does the 'divine root' symbolize? "
Whatever it symbolized, Sean already knew it was something powerful.
Beings that are so powerful that even angels covet them, and those that are so powerful that they are close to evil gods, will stop and look at me.
"Having divine roots...is it a good thing?" An imperceptible bitter smile appeared on Sean's lips, "Or is it a bad thing?"
In order to get further away from Erkes and avoid other variables, Catherine asked the team to wait in the thick fog for five minutes before moving on.
Not long after, I finally walked out of this foggy wasteland, and ahead I could see the neon-lit, sewage-filled, and stinking Undercurrent Street neighborhood.
In front, Catherine, who was shaking the soul-inducing bell, was suddenly stunned.
"What's wrong?" Sean asked in a low voice, following Catherine's gaze and looking up.
The mist became clear in front. About ten meters ahead, there was an evil spirit wearing a blood-stained maid mask, his clothes were in decay, and his skin was covered with corpse spots.
She also held a soul-inducing bell in her hand. If it weren't for the dementia-looking person she was holding behind her, who looked nothing like Sean and the others, it would have been mistaken for a mirror on the street.
They come face to face with the real "Bloody Lisa."
