I changed the timeline with the game.

Chapter 268 Those who have nothing

Chapter 268 Those who have nothing
Moreover, he had not forgotten to put the roasted monster into the storage box whose space had been doubled.

Although Su Wen had no interest in eating these mutated monsters.

But never miss out on potentially useful material.

This is probably also a good virtue that an excellent gamer and adventurer must have.

Looking at the remains scattered on the ground.

He got a clue worth pondering:

[Identification: Polluted by the abyss, hosting the remains of a very weak and twisted will]

Su Wen lowered the torch slightly, bringing all the debris within the purifying range of the flame.

then.

From the perspective of identification.

He saw countless dissipating black shadows.

Those black shadows were exactly the same as the monsters that appeared when Grace caused the disaster before.

The emergence of this phenomenon made Su Wen want to delve deeper into it.

at the same time.

The system prompt also appears as expected:
【Christmas puzzle detected: black shadow】

Puzzle clues:
Great Chief Player, there is nothing wrong with your inference. The Rockefeller University's Institute No. 76 does hide the origin of the black shadow.

Simultaneously.

The debris in front of you all left with despair at the moment of death.

“Despair breeds fear.”

Su Wen chewed on the term.

His eyes gradually turned cold:

“Caroline.

Now, help me find missing people in New York State during the fall and winter of Origin 2.”

Hear him say that.

Miss Hacker also seemed to understand something.

She moved quickly, sifting through the statistics.

then.

The girl blinked and gave a seemingly insignificant statistic word by word:

“3,782 people, 93 percent of them are homeless.

In the second year of the origin, the war broke out in Windsor, Canada.

America has ushered in a new round of soaring prices and inflation, and the number of homeless people has increased dramatically.

and so.

That's probably why the Night's Watch didn't investigate it thoroughly."

Hear her say that.

The handsome detective said calmly and silently:
“Because of being homeless.

At the same time, it cannot provide any help to this greedy capitalist society.

and so.

It is considered waste fuel.

But even so.

Some people still need them to burn out their last bit of light and heat for this world.

Really:

A world that is dirty and sad enough!"

He combined the intelligence he had just obtained and came up with a conclusion that was very close to the truth:

"Boris can decide the timing of releasing the shadow with incredible precision.

And even after his death, there was no sign of this disaster stopping.

Extend from this point.

The Black Shadow Disaster was probably a byproduct of previous research at Rockefeller University's Institute 76.

and.

The original end date was December 23rd.

But Boris chose to postpone it for one day.

Release the dragon skeleton on Christmas Eve on the 24th.

in other words.

For these shadows, the time points of 'Christmas Eve' and 'Christmas' are not felt by them as they do not involve any of the Vatican's supernatural powers in prayer rituals involving Christ.

Everything left only one possibility:
'They' still retain human intelligence.

but.

That is just the ‘remaining’ part.”

Miss Caroline is very clever.

After he analyzed it to this point.

The girl remained silent.

then.

Su Wen sighed and said calmly:
"so.

The destination we are going to.

Only in the four surveillance channels you just observed and where the lighting is intact.

And that location.

I think.

There should be no need to use the process of elimination anymore.”

He and Caroline calmly walked to the door of the [Formalin Storage Room].

Feel the abyssal pollution that continues to accumulate within the door.

At the same time, the handsome detective continued to swing his sword gracefully to eliminate the dark shadows that attacked them.

The system prompt also arrived as expected:
【Congratulations: Great Chief Player】

[You have successfully solved the puzzle: Black Shadow] [Get a chance to draw a Christmas gift box]

then.

After the fourth draw.

Su Wen received a bracelet made of pure silver and studded with tiny diamonds:
[Relic: C4-2 'Distant Galaxy - Carl's Mimic Bracelet]

[Holy Relic Features:
Return: You can use it to repeat the extraordinary characteristics you have used before.

(Note: Extraordinary characteristics are not limited to this game)]

After the treasure reward is determined.

He calmly swung the azure sword in his hand.

moment.

Accompanied by the shattering of the dilapidated hatch of the research institute.

Countless horrifying scenes appeared before the two people.

They were the missing persons whose bodies had long since shriveled up and were immersed in airtight jars of formalin.

now.

Accompanied by Su Wen's intrusion.

All the corpses, eroded by years of pollution from the abyss, slowly turned their heads and looked at him in an extremely hideous state.

"Do we need to destroy them all?"

Caroline looked at the familiar figure in a jar, and there was a hint of sadness in her words.

But Miss Hacker is definitely not a soft-hearted person.

If Su Wen nodded.

Then the next second.

All drones hovering in the air will immediately open fire to eliminate everything.

The girl thought that she didn't need to ask any more questions for this answer.

after all.

Those hideous mummies might have once been a group of poor people with nothing.

But now, they have become monsters and stand in opposition to human civilization.

just.

After hearing her question.

Su Wen shook his head.

He slammed the azure sword in his hand heavily into the ground.

The world's loneliest savior calmly paid tribute by placing his right hand on his chest.

then.

He used the [Relic: C4-2 'Distant Galaxy - Carl's Mimic Bracelet'] that he had just obtained.

[Holy Relic Features: Return]

[Supernatural Mimicry: Afterglow of Lights Branlitt's Lantern]

In an instant.

A faint light quietly spread out.

A faint glimmer expanded from the edge of the world, forming an undetectable ring-shaped psychic field.

A simple lantern with an elegant brown-black Baroque style that could soothe the soul appeared in his hand.

A silent oath followed:

[I mourn the dead, just as Helena swears for the living]

[Only silence can give birth to words; only darkness can bring light; only death can bring rebirth; fireflies falling into the void can shine brightly. ]

[I am the extradition of the forgotten people - "The Afterglow of Lights" - Branlitt]

Under the reflection of the afterglow of the lights.

Those experimenters, whose rationality had been eroded by the abyss, gained some ability to think.

But they still couldn't express anything.

Su Wen raised the lantern.

He sighed, and then said calmly:
“Death is for you.

It is already inevitable.

But those who once controlled you are also dead.

This is the end.

I want to know.

At the end of life.

You who once had nothing wanted to leave as a monster.
