Deep in the Living

Chapter 19 Desperate Situation
If the metal box associated with snapping tongues and demons is your first choice, you will definitely make relevant preparations and countermeasures in advance.

nowadays,
There was no preparation, the attack was completely sudden and the zombies were behind him, so the squad leader was seriously injured as soon as they met.

Moreover, they were only sophomores, and they were inexperienced in dealing with such intangible anomalies. Even though they had learned knowledge about demons in school, it was only theoretical.

According to the knowledge points explained by the school,

Once an individual is possessed by a demonic type of 'abnormality', the only way to avoid harming the possessed person is to [exorcise the demon].

Since the city where Rody and his friends live is mainly China, the number of pseudo-people who show demonic properties is extremely small, or even non-existent. Ordinary schools do not provide in-depth teaching in this regard, and systematic teaching is often given after they go to school.

However, academic masters like Gao Yuxuan have learned about it privately, and their brains are working at a rapid pace.

In his opinion, Anna, a Soviet student from a top school, should have received special training and should have prepared tools to deal with demons in advance.

He quickly rummaged through Anna's backpack and actually found a Russian version of the Bible with a metal cross inside.

When the Bible was found,

Lying on the bed, the possessed Anna just kept smiling, without any change in her expression showing any sign of crisis.

Gao Yuxuan threw the Russian version of the Bible lightly into Rody's hands.

"Don't you need it?"

"I can recite it... Hurry up and turn to Psalm 91 and recite it with me. You can pray for God's protection and expel evil. It should be able to suppress the demon in Anna's body to a certain extent and protect our spiritual safety until the professionals of the institute arrive."

When Rody turned to the corresponding chapter,
Gao Yuxuan pointed the cross in his hand at Anna on the bed.
The two recited together in Russian: "He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty..."

But this kind of recitation made Anna laugh out loud. The ashes in the house did not decrease at all, and the ambient temperature continued to rise.

"Haha~ You are really good kids who like to read. You are not believers, and you may not even have been to church. You are far from being a clergyman.

He obviously doesn't believe in religion, but he wants to rely on the power of that guy "above". It's really laughable.

You can't do anything now.

It’s better to leave here quickly like Wenwen, maybe there is still a glimmer of hope.

However, I don't think you are such a cold-blooded person. You won't leave this poor girl here alone, right?"

The devilish words that came out of Anna's mouth did not disrupt the two people's recitation. After all, this was the only way they had to exorcise demons.

Although the continuous recitation did not cause Anna any discomfort, the smile on her face gradually closed and turned into a kind of disgust and nausea.

"enough!"

A roar came out from the tip of Anna's tongue, and the dressing mirror in the master bedroom cracked.

"Listening to these disgusting things for too long makes me sick! Stop disgusting me, or when I am "fully integrated", I won't be able to kill you so easily.

Instead, it is slowly being cut off from you piece by piece of flesh and blood."

At this time, one of Anna's eyes also began to change. The pupil, which was originally of normal size, shrank rapidly and became only the size of a grain, with the rest of the pupil being occupied by the white of the eye.

And another tiny tongue grew under her tongue.

Such changes seem to mean that [Possession] has advanced to a new stage, and the influence of the demon in the body on reality has become stronger.

Rody, who was reading the Bible, was also stunned at this moment, because he saw a tongue actually emerged from between the pages of the book, and even gently licked his fingers holding the book.

It was not the expected soothing and sticky feeling, but a very strange touch.

It was as if the tongue had countless tiny baby arms growing on its surface, sucking and pulling Rody, trying to pull him into the depths of hell.
The Bible slipped out of his hand and fell onto the scorched earth, burning to ashes.

Rody looked at the burnt Bible on the ground. Seeing that the possession was completely unaffected and even getting worse, a special plan came into his mind.

He immediately turned to Gao Yuxuan beside him and signaled him with his eyes to stop reciting the Bible.

The reading stopped, all was quiet,
Anna's tongue slapped up and down in her mouth continuously, as if she was applauding and cheering, "Huh~ you're finally quiet.

It will take some time before I am completely possessed. Let me see your [essence] to kill some time.

Let me start with you, the boy with glasses who likes reading and knows how to give injections.

The granular pupils stared at Gao Yuxuan, as if they could see through his soul and understand his thoughts.

"Oh! A child of destiny, he has been held in high esteem since childhood, both physically and mentally, and originally had the opportunity to enter a key high school directly under the company.

Unfortunately, an accident happened just before you were about to enter school, which caused some problems with your left hand and seriously affected your test scores. In the end, you could only attend an ordinary high school and fell into self-denial, and even the condition of your arm continued to deteriorate.

I spent a lot of money to get a prosthetic limb, but unfortunately I encountered an accident like mine right after I started using it.

How do you feel now?
I'm about to come out of the trough.
Obviously, I can prove myself in the next year's entrance examination through the success of this practice.
But now he is about to die in an accident during practice.

The "talent" that you are so proud of is about to be buried by my own hands. Are you starting to feel despair?
The taste of despair is very delicious. I can't wait to put my tongue into your mouth to taste it carefully. I wonder how delicious it will be. "

When Gao Yuxuan's experience was verbally described by the devil, his expression did not change much, he just lightly touched his glasses with his index finger.

He had tasted death and experienced the depths of despair, but he had gotten over it a year ago.

Now, he is only concerned about the situation at hand and is just thinking about how to break the impasse.

At the same time, he was also wondering why no staff from the research institute had arrived after such a long time. He kept glancing at the door, expecting someone to appear.

"Maybe it won't come..."

Luo Di's sudden words made Gao Yuxuan stunned for a moment.
"Waiting for rescue"

This is the basis of all Gao Yuxuan's current actions. If this bottom-level survival route is broken, he will be completely trapped in a mental dead end.

But if you think about it carefully, Rody's conclusion does have some basis.

The institute made such a low-level mistake probably because something went wrong internally, and even the internal staff were in danger, so they had no time to deal with the emergency here.

Even if we need to deal with it, we have to wait until the institute is stable.

Gao Yuxuan's eyes became confused, and he didn't know what to do for a moment.

Anna, lying on the bed, continued her hellish speech: "You are right, the people from the institute should not come. The reason why I can show up is not just a technical mistake.

Okay, let me take a look at this little boy who doesn’t talk much but likes to be a hero.”

Anna's head turned on her neck like a machine.

The eyes came to Luo Di, and when the granular structure of the pupils fell on him,

The expression of the possessed Anna changed instantly, from confusion to curiosity to excitement.

"…What a special human!"
