The Priest's Secret!

Regardless of whether the nightmare is real or feigned, let's spare his life for now.

Lin Feng, an outsider, was unaware of the entrance to the Hell Space, but Nightmare, as an old acquaintance of Qin Leng, was extremely knowledgeable about the situation on Qin Leng's side.

009 still has a score to settle with 007, and Qin Leng is naturally not going to escape it either.

He was going to kill Qin Leng sooner or later, it was just a matter of time. It was definitely not possible now, he needed to focus on dealing with Ye Long.

However, if we want to deal with Qin Leng later, Nightmare's information will be very important.

There is only one entrance to the Hell Space unless Qin Leng invites you.

Qin Leng attached great importance to this entrance, as finding it in this vast world was like finding a needle in a haystack.

And so, the nightmare returned to the Chaos Splitter.

When Nairasojin saw Nightmare, he simply patted him on the shoulder and said, "After all the twists and turns, you've finally come back."

Nightmare paused for a moment, "I..."

Nairasojin shook his head and said, "Don't say anything more. If you really want to come back, there's no need to bring up the past again."

"But if you come with a mission, then this time, I won't go easy on you."

Overall, the members of the Chaos Splitter were skeptical of the Nightmare's return, especially the priest.

He held his hands up, and his dry, yellow eyes were somewhat frightening.

His life had long been at its limit; it was 009 who used his abilities and Containment Object to keep him alive until now.

This is why the priest is now very thin, especially his face.

He weighed less than 90 pounds; under his clothes was just skin and bones. "Let me tell you a story related to a certain sequence."

"It is said that in a certain period of ancient China, there was a family."

"The mother had three sons and two daughters, and the family made a living by hunting."

One day, the eldest son went out hunting and returned late at night, saying that he had caught a large tiger with bulging eyes and a white forehead. He then asked his brothers to pack up and go together to carry the tiger back.

"My second brother went with him, and the two brothers returned after about an hour."

"But the big worm was not brought back. My second brother said that the worm was too big for the two of them to carry, so he asked Dad to go as well."

"Father went with them, and none of the three returned by the next morning."

"The fourth brother said he would go and search, so he went in the direction that the eldest brother and the others had gone."

"As dusk approached, my fourth brother found a cave in the woods. He went inside and saw three corpses lying there."

"Those three corpses were none other than his eldest brother, second brother, and father."

"The fourth brother was terrified and turned around and ran home without thinking."

"He was too scared to tell anyone, so he locked himself in his room until that night... when he heard his older brother and father's voices outside the door."

"When the fourth brother heard this, he was terrified. He had seen those three corpses lying there Heavenly Eye, and who was shouting outside?"

"When Mother went to open the door, the fourth brother hurriedly stopped her, saying, 'Father and the others are dead. The person outside is definitely not Father or the eldest brother.'"

"The mother did not believe him. She pushed open the door and shone the light from inside the house. There was no shadow of the eldest son and husband outside the door."

"Later, an old Daoist priest recounted the whole story."

"It is said that there is a vicious tiger in this mountain. It has lived for a long time and has gained supernatural powers. It eats living people in this mountain and refines their souls to act as its accomplices."

"In the story, the eldest brother was eaten by the evil tiger and turned into a ghost. He then went back and tricked the second brother into the tiger's den."

Yi Jing chuckled lightly, "You mean 067, right?"

Number 0 067: Tiger Ghoul.

It is a sequence resembling a tiger, and it is also a sequence of the dead souls. It can refine the souls of the lives it consumes into cougars.

"What happened to Tiger Ghoul?"

The priest looked at Nightmare and said, "Nothing much, I just suddenly thought of this story, and it was hard to keep it inside, so I told it."

Arthur waved his hand. "That's boring. Let me tell you a story instead."

"I remember one year, a group of reporters came to our school, saying they wanted to capture the most beautiful smiles. So I went up and showed off my superb acting skills. Guess what they said?"

"They said that other students have a nice smile, but I'm different; I look funny."

Silence.

Arthur: "Isn't it funny?"

"Pfft, that's really funny." Qianhou couldn't help but laugh.

009 waved his hand, "Enough with the idle talk, let's get down to business."

"I don't care what Li Yuan is doing over there, but we can't let him run wild. Nairasojin, you keep an eye on Li Yuan, especially make sure he doesn't get the White Walker's crown."

"Arthur, stay by my side. In case of crisis, we'll unite."

"Twelve, you don't need to move. Just keep an eye on our crown. That's more important than anything else."

"Centaur, Thousand Throat, Adolf, the three of you can now move out of the arena."

"Father, Yi Jing, Sword Forger, you guard the rear."

"As for you, Nightmare... go and find Lin Feng for me."

Ultimately, 009 still has no reason to trust Nightmare.

009 felt uncomfortable leaving him here, and if he came for the crown, then he couldn't be left here even more.

Night falls in front of the Imperial Cathedral.

After packing his things, Nairasojin prepared to leave that night, but when he passed by the church, he heard the priest's voice.

He seemed to be praying, and his prayers were repeating the same few words over and over in a very soft voice.

"... Your mystery is something that cannot be mentioned, described, looked at directly, or named, and I yearn for it."

"I glimpsed a corner of that great power from within the books."

"In that dream, I fell into the black stars and witnessed the towers of Karkosa rising from the ground..."

Listening to the rambling hymn, Nairasojin couldn't help but push open a corner of the church window and look inside.

Inside the church, there were about a hundred worshippers and dozens of neatly arranged wax figures. The priest held a thick book and chanted softly in front of the worshippers.

The believers closed their eyes, clasped their hands, and knelt on the ground, praying about something.

No believer noticed that the priest's figure was growing taller.

Nairasojin narrowed his eyes and saw a glowing yellow mark on the priest's head, while his legs seemed to have disappeared and turned into some kind of soft structure.

The firelight inside the church was so dim that Nairasojin couldn't see what the priest's legs were under his robes.

The priest closed the book in his hand and looked at the man in front of him who was bound with rope and gagged with cloth.

He reached out and grabbed the man's face, then whispered, "Believers, open your eyes God Sinner shall die by divine intervention."

The believers opened their eyes and saw the person bound by ropes struggling desperately, constantly making choking "uh-uh" sounds.

The priest's sallow eyes flashed, and his thin, bony hands gripped the man's face tightly, his sharp nails piercing the man's skin.

"Miracle."

As soon as he finished speaking, the man's face suddenly turned pale, his skin and flesh became smooth, and then his whole body stiffened, turning as stiff as a candle.

The priest withdrew his right hand, and the man completely turned into a wax figure.

"Tell me, what did you see, Nairasojin?"
