Infinite Terror: I Have a Chat Group

Chapter 251 Successful Rescue!

Klein remained silent and did not respond. Emotionally, he was willing to believe Old Neil, but reason told him that one could not trust the words of a person who was about to lose control. Just like the events he had seen in the database, even the most devout and kind Extraordinary could do anything once they lost control.

On the other side of the door, Old Neil continued to plead with the two to leave, becoming increasingly agitated. More and more blood seeped from the crack in the door. Klein was getting anxious. He knew very well that if this continued, Old Neil could lose control and turn into a monster at any moment, which would be tantamount to death!

But Klein couldn't just barge in. If he disturbed the agitated old Neil, he might lose control. Klein was at a loss for what to do.

Fortunately, Dunn was experienced and calmed old Neil with a gentle voice.

I know you've always been a good person...

'

"Can you tell me exactly what you want to do?"

Dunn's reassurance worked; old Neil was no longer so agitated and instead excitedly recounted his plan to resurrect his wife.

"How do you plan to resurrect Celeste?"

Upon hearing this, Old Neil became even more excited and began to explain: "I will use the method of 'life transmutation' to prepare a body for her that will not age. Dunn, perhaps you don't know, but Sequence 4 of the Church of the Earth Mother is skilled in 'life transmutation,' and the corresponding sequence of the 'Generalist' pathway can also barely accomplish it. Hmm, I will use the grace of the gods to complete it."

"Then, I will summon her soul from the spirit world and pray for divine help to reunite the spirit and the flesh."

"Isn't that a great idea?"

Klein, who was outside, could only smile wryly when he heard about this method. He could only pray for the help of the gods. No normal extraordinary person would think that it could succeed.

There is a saying circulating in the extraordinary world: "You can believe in the power of the gods, but do not believe in their mercy." The fact that this saying is so widely circulated is enough to illustrate what kind of beings the gods are.

"Yes, that's a great idea."

"Old Neil, let us in. Perhaps we can help you."

But Dunn still praised it with a smile, as if it really was a good method, though he also asked to come inside.

"—Dunner, you still won't let me go?"

Upon hearing that Dunn was coming in, old Neil immediately pleaded.

"Go back, you all go back. I'll be back to normal tomorrow, really. Dunn, I swear, I won't steal your coffee beans again. Klein, I swear, I won't let you guys help me reimburse expenses that aren't rightfully mine again, really!"

Klein's vision blurred, while Dunn lowered his head, then immediately raised it again, saying, "Old Neil, you've misunderstood. We're here to visit you. You're our comrade. You're sick and not feeling well, so of course we'd come to see you. Open the door, let us see you, and put our minds at ease. As long as you're really alright, we'll head back immediately. You know, we've had a lot of missions lately. We have to monitor the mental hospital while also dealing with all sorts of emergencies."

Old Neil hesitated for a moment and said, "I really don't have any major problems, really, I'll be recovered tomorrow."

Although Old Neil said that, blood continued to seep out from the crack in the door, undoubtedly telling the two that Old Neil's condition was getting more and more serious.

"Old Neil, we've known each other for 15 years, haven't we? We've done countless missions together. I care about you a lot and I'm worried about you. I have to see you with my own eyes before I can feel at ease."

Despite the urgency of the situation, Dunn remained calm and spoke gently to persuade him.

"Alright then," Old Neil muttered. "I really don't have any problems."

Trusting Dunn, old Neil finally agreed to open the door, which eased Klein's anxiety somewhat.

With a creak, the door slowly opened, and the two saw that the carpet in the foyer was covered with a blood-red, viscous, hairy liquid.

Looking ahead and then upward, the two discovered that the living room floor, ceiling, round table, piano, and chairs were also covered with a disgusting, sticky, bloody liquid covered with dense black hairs.

Old Neil's white head hung in mid-air, connected to the ceiling by thick mucus, with a pair of eyes growing from his forehead and cheeks, cold eyes without eyelashes.

The piano keys seemed to be jumping on their own, producing a beautiful and melodious tune.

"Dunn, you see, I'm really fine."

Old Neil said with a bright smile, "Klein, you all think so too, right?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, Klein saw a thick, blood-red liquid with short black hairs flowing out.

Klein's expression changed drastically. This situation was out of control; would the Horse Talisman still be effective?

With a heavy heart, Klein went straight into the chat group, tagged "Omnipotent Mage," briefly explained the current situation, and asked what to do.

[Almighty Archmage: Don't worry, as long as he hasn't lost consciousness, he's not truly dead. The Horse Talisman will work. Use it on him immediately.]

[Lord of the Altar: I understand, thank you.]

Klein left the chat group and focused his attention on Old Neil.

"Old Neil, where did you learn about the alchemy of life and the resurrection ritual?"

At this moment, Dunn was still talking to Old Neil, trying to find out the reason why Old Neil lost control while he was still sober.

Klein glanced at the captain and took out the horse charm. Although it would be difficult to explain later, there was no other way at the moment.

Holding the horse talisman, Klein channeled his spiritual energy into it. Lin Yu had said that talismans themselves possess great power, but if they are driven by extraordinary power, their power can be maximized.

With the infusion of spiritual energy, a sky-blue light emanated from Klein's hand, a light so pure...

So dazzling, bathed in this light, Klein felt incredibly warm, as if he had returned to his mother's embrace, and his mind and body became peaceful.

"Klein, what are you doing?"

Seeing Klein's unusual behavior, Dunn's expression changed drastically, fearing that something had also happened to Klein.

Before he could make a further move, the blue light shone on him, and he felt incredibly comfortable. His old injuries healed instantly, and his mind became calm.

The previously audible sounds of eating have disappeared, and the burden brought by the repeated devouring has dissipated, as if a thousand-pound weight has been lifted from my body.

Shocked, Dunn stared at Klein as the blue light continued to spread. The viscous, blood-red liquid with short black hairs flowing on the ground and ceiling disappeared as soon as it came into contact with the light, and the house returned to normal.
