Chapter 146 Immortal people, immortal diseases, and the last era when the light is about to go out

When Chen Yan came to the kitchen, he saw Ogami lifting his face covered with fried chicken pieces from the pile of fried chicken bones.

Ogami saw the way Jack Baldo looked at the fried chicken in front of him.

"I sense danger." Ogami said seriously.

He pushed the last unopened piece of fried chicken to the other side of the table and gathered the fried chicken in front of him.

"I guess this fried chicken is prepared for you." Ogami said seriously, "One for each person."

Jack Baldo turned his head and glanced at Chen Yan, then at Ogami, and finally set his sights on Nuomi Guo.

"Mr. Chen, you are really...unexpected..."

Jack Baldo whispered in Chen Yan's ear with a not quiet voice: "That legendary murderer was actually hidden by you!"

Chen Yan's nose was so angry: "Can you whisper louder? Why don't you shout into his ears? Are you afraid that he will hear you?"

Jack Baldo said seriously: "No, no matter how loud you sound, people outside will hear you."

He sat down at the dining table, opposite Ogami, casually picked up Chen Yan's glass of gin, and gestured to Ogami: "Great warrior! No matter what your purpose is, I should pay tribute to you!

"

Ogami frowned and said, "What are you talking about?"

There was doubt in Jack Baldo's voice: "Don't you know? Those people are looking for you to go crazy! Even an outsider like me, an immortal who is about to be burned to ashes, knows what you look like!"

He gestured with Ogami with his hand: "More than thirty years old, Asian, with many scars on his face, one hand is a bone prosthetic hand, and he exudes a dangerous aura - I swear to the sun

, even a six-year-old child can recognize your identity at a glance!"

Chen Yan sat back at his seat at the dining table. He listened to Jack Baldo's words and was curious. If it was true as Jack Baldo said, why Ogami had been running rampant in the market these two days but did not attract any attention.

Is it the revenge of those extraordinary beings who were injured in the first place?

As if seeing Chen Yan's question, Ogami answered: "I know some ways to change my appearance, and I can also sense danger in advance to avoid prying eyes from certain people."

I see.

Seeing that the guy was about to speak again, Chen Yan coughed twice loudly and grabbed the topic: "Speaking of which, what happened to you? How did you become the legacy of Johnny Mogwen?"

Jack Baldo spread his hands: "When I first came to Yanan City, I didn't know where to make money, so I could only go to black boxing. I accidentally lost and was thrown into a dog cage in the underground boxing ring. I was almost thrown into the sewer."

The zombie dog I raised bit me to death, but it was Mr. Mogwen who saved me."

He said in a matter-of-fact tone: "He saved my life, my life is his."

Chen Yan frowned and said, "What kind of bullshit is this?"

Jack Bardo threw a piece of fried chicken into his mouth: "Mr. Mogwen reacted exactly like you."

He swallowed the fried chicken with the bones, and then said:

"No matter how you react, I have made a decision... Anyway, my time is running out. After the embers burn out, I don't know how long it will take to wake up next time. Since Mr. Mogwen handed me over to you,

It means that at least you are not a bad person."

He raised his glass to Chen Yan and drank the gin in one gulp:

"I leave this short life to you!"

Chen Yan could hardly understand what he was saying.

But Nuomi Guo suddenly spoke.

"He is immortal."

Jack Baldo didn't refute what she said next, he just kept eating fried chicken.

"The undead bear the curse called [immortality] and must feed on souls in order to continue their lives."

Listening to her words, Chen Yan suddenly remembered what was described in Johnny Mogwin's video tape.

Johnny Murgwyn said in the video that he wanted to eat brains, but he was not interested in brains - he was interested in "something" in the brain.

Now hearing what Nuomiguo said, Chen Yan understood that Johnny Mogwen, who was gradually transforming into an undead form, might be interested in the soul that existed in his mind.

When Nuomiguo said these words, there was a distant reminiscence in his eyes.

"[The Curse of the Immortal] has no caster, and only appears randomly on everyone in the era when the light is about to go out. Because the symptoms are obvious and can be cured to a certain extent with medicine, the [Curse of the Immortal] is also known as

It’s [the disease of immortality].”

Chen Yan was surprised: "Appearing randomly? Isn't that the same as the [lycanthropy disease] in Yanan City thousands of years ago?"

Nuomi Guo has obviously done some research on this, she nodded vigorously:

"Yes, this 'random appearance' approach is the same.

But its core is completely different——

[The curse of immortality] is originally hidden deep in the human soul. When the light is about to go out, it will automatically appear from the soul."

Chen Yan said thoughtfully: "Everyone has one?"

Nuomiguo said seriously: "Yes, everyone has it, but the activation is random."

So, Johnny Murgwen is really an unlucky guy...

Nuomi Guo’s wording is quite cautious:

"Although the [Curse of Immortality] exists in the human soul, and everyone may become an immortal, in fact, this era is an era of light, and the probability of the appearance of the undead is extremely low——

Mr. Johnny Mogwen, whom Mr. Yan met before, was really unlucky."

She glanced at Jack Baldo: "If I hadn't contracted the immortality disease due to bad luck..."

She said cautiously: "Then it's because it originally had the immortality disease - the immortality disease brought from the previous era when the light was about to go out."

Jack Baldo's big pale golden eyes responded to the gazes of the other three people with pure eyes: "I have forgotten! I don't know anything!"

Just when Chen Yan was about to complain about his perfunctory behavior, he heard Nuomiguo explain:

"When the immortality disease is very severe, people will lose consciousness and become living zombies - if they stay in the state of living zombies for long enough, they will lose their memory -

So I believe what he said, he may have really lost his memory because of this."

Chen Yan looked at Jack Baldo with complicated eyes.

This guy...is from the previous era of [The Light Will Go Out]?

Why have I never heard of this era...

Chen Yan was quite curious about this because there was no information about the previous era recorded in the history of the empire.

Nuomiguo continued: "And [animal transformation] is caused by human greed——

Humans covet the power of gods and want to use the blood of gods to "evolve" themselves, but they don't know that human bodies cannot bear the blood of gods...

They forcibly injected people with the blood of gods, euphemistically calling it "blood therapy".

Human beings received the blood of gods that did not belong to them, so [lycanthropy] occurred."
