The skin gradually dissolved on Chu Dong's body, revealing a pair of familiar and vicious eyes like poisonous snakes. What was frightening was that he had always imitated Chu Dong's face.

"Unexpectedly, Ivel, I would actually attack you at this time."

Barras smiled proudly. While he was still in the sick village, he sneaked out. In order to pass through the terrifying forest, he also spent a lot of effort and even almost lost his life.

No matter what, it can only be said that he was lucky. He came to the sick village smoothly and met Chudong and the others.

Of course, he didn't lie to Ethan. Those two people did take advantage of Jiang Chenchuan's absence and wanted to attack Chu Dong. It was just a coincidence that Barras saved Chu Dong.

In early winter, I was injured in the battle and it was difficult to move around. At that time, it started to rain, and the mist in the forest filled the entire village.

In order to survive, Barras hid Chudong in an empty house and lit candles for her to ensure that there was light to save her life.

As for himself, he set out with an oil lamp to seek rescue, but unexpectedly, he accidentally discovered the existence of Ethan.

"Huh? There is actually someone there?"

He popped his head out of the window. It was already early winter for him. He pulled down the sleeves of his coat and covered the bracelet on his wrist.

"Miss Chudong?"

Pressing down the muzzle and recovering all hostility, Barras pretended to be surprised and met Ethan smoothly.

When he learned that Ethan wanted to destroy the sick village, he hesitated, but it was only a brief hesitation. Then, he listened to Ethan's words and left the forest.

A strange wind blew up from nowhere, and the sound sounded like someone was banging. The sky became darker inexplicably. Barras raised his head slightly and looked at Jiang Chenchuan's face with his back to the light, which looked a little gloomy.

"You can't blame me, Evel. If they want to take off this restraint, they have to attack you. I'm afraid they think I can't beat you."

The edge of the dagger glowed with abnormal light, and complex runes began to spread along Jiang Chenchuan's body, as if some strange power covered the surface of the skin.

"Don't worry, this dagger is also a relic. It can suppress your breath of life. In other words, when this piece of shit can be taken off, I will save you."

Barras lowered his head and talked to himself, fiddling with the bracelet that imprisoned him. He didn't notice that some black silk came out from Jiang Chenchuan's wound.

"Shh, be quiet, he hates being woken up."

I don't know since when, there was suddenly another person in the room, leaning on the side leisurely as if watching a play, the whole person was immersed in the shadows, and only a rough black outline could be seen.

"Who are you!?"

Barras looked surprised.

There was no movement. When did he appear? Or has he been in this room from the beginning?

Barras, who was confused about the situation and the identity of the other party, did not dare to act rashly and could only try to fiddle with the bracelet in an attempt to break free.

There seemed to be endless wailing in the ears, and the monsters in the city seemed to sense something. Under the invisible pressure, they hid one after another, their trembling bodies showing their fear.

"You don't need to know who I am, you just need to know that once a storm forms, no one in its path will be spared."

As the man said this, black shadows spread out under Jiang Chenchuan's feet. The shadows were like flowing rivers, with severed limbs and internal organs constantly pouring out. It seemed that as long as they were touched, those strange things would be absorbed. Pulled into hell.

Fear involuntarily emerged from the bottom of his heart, and Barras kept retreating from the shadow spreading towards him, until his back was pressed against the cabinet.

There is no way to retreat.

"How dramatic, the conspirators die in darkness, the holy ones fall into impurity..."

The man said without changing his face in the face of that powerful oppression.

"I have a story here from a long time ago. Do you want to hear it?"

Just like the pleasant time in the pub, just swaying a glass of red wine in your hand and talking endlessly about your glorious past.

"Damn it! What kind of monster is Ivel? Stop making sarcastic comments and think about how to stop him!"

Barras was not in such a pleasant mood. He held on to the bracelet on his hand and looked at Jiang Chenchuan, who had his head lowered and seemed to be in a coma. His dagger was still inserted in his body. Suddenly, some ideas came to his mind.

"Evel! Wake up!"

Barras yelled, and the shadows pressed closer. He had a premonition that if he didn't do something, he would definitely die!

His fingers trembled slightly, and Jiang Chenchuan responded to the call. Even the shadows under his feet began to grow upward, as if he was trying to get rid of some kind of restraint.

"Evel!"

If he doesn't wake up, something will.

What could it be?

Barras couldn't figure out the reason for this. All his actions were just driven by the instinct of survival.

Stay alive.

After staying in the eternal night of the mansion for so long, he finally came out to see the outside world. He couldn't die here. No matter what, he had to live!

"Evel!"

Barras roared again.

"Ah……"

The man on the side let out a disdainful sneer. He seemed to have known the result early and just looked at Jiang Chenchuan like this.

Look through Ivel's appearance and look into his deep soul.

"One day, you will remember."

Muttering with a hint of disappointment, Jiang Chenchuan slowly opened his eyes in the reflection of the man's pupils.

In an instant, the suffocating sense of oppression dissipated, as if the wind had blown away the dark clouds in the sky, and golden light fell from the sky. As Jiang Chenchuan woke up, even the black shadows spreading on the ground disappeared. net.

As if by magic, everything that had just happened was like a brief hallucination.

"Baras."

Jiang Chenchuan's voice was hoarse.

But being able to hear him speak is better than being dead.

"I... won't let you succeed."

He slowly raised his hand and grabbed the dagger that had penetrated his body.

Clang.

Throwing the dagger aside, before the blood could splash, Jiang Chenchuan blocked the bleeding hole. The cane and recycling box were placed not far away. Even if Barras made a move, he would have the ability to fight back immediately.

However, Barras's reaction was different from what he expected. There was almost no aggression, but he slumped to the ground stupidly, leaning against the closet and breathing heavily.

"Evel..."

He muttered something.

"What?"

Ivel looked at his unusual expression and felt a little puzzled.

"I was wrong, I was wrong, I was so wrong..."
