Chapter 575 [Chapter of the Fatal Game] Twenty-Five: Mud Battle

What is that thing?

What is watching me?

In the darkness, the huge figure advanced slowly in the dirty water. Within half a minute, it had arrived in front of Chen Yan from the dark depths of the water.

This is……

Through the dim light leaking from the office area, Chen Yan saw a monster that was almost impossible to define.

The monster's entire body was made of mud and various stolen goods. It was at least 6 meters long, and its chest was bulging and huge. Below the chest was connected to the lower body like a cattail leaf fan, and above the chest was connected to a neck of almost 1 meter.

The neck is very long, made up of bone stubbles of different sizes and shapes. The gaps between the bone stubbles are filled with mud and dirt that enters the sewer. When the whole neck is lifted up, a fishy smell oozes out.

I don't know if it's mud or a viscous liquid of something else.

'Huh? Bone stubble? So much bone stubble brought from the underground water? Is it catching fish for itself...'

There is no head above the neck. Only at the top of the neck, between the bone stubbles, is a pale human face.

The face was so rotten and swollen that its original appearance was completely unrecognizable.

This thing - Chen Yan didn't know what this thing was, so he could only call it a "thing" - this thing came close to Chen Yan, opened his mouth, and made a harsh sound, like a pile of glass shards added to a broken bellows.

Afterwards, the sound made when the bellows is pulled:

"Nate? Is that you, Nate? I've waited so hard for you..."

When it was talking, Chen Yan keenly "felt" that this "Nate" should be its lover or something like that.

'It has been waiting here for many years? It has not been waiting yet? Will the Koujimi Qinggui always bring the prisoner over so that he can identify it?'

Chen Yan suddenly realized that the high-density bone stubble that made up its one-meter-long neck came from the prisoners that Kouji Mi Qinggui had brought to him in the past!

‘That’s not right! Didn’t Axequish Nestor reveal before that the Oral and Rice Ghost appeared again recently...’

Chen Yan suddenly realized:

'What a dog said! You actually deceived me!'

Exquisite Nestor's words were both true and false. Chen Yan thought, perhaps because he had implicitly included the information that "the ghost of Mi Qing did not appear just recently" in the truth, so he

I just can't "feel" it.

'In addition, I have been in a state of control before, so the 'feeling' is more or less inaccurate...'

'Grass!'

Thinking of this, Chen Yan finally understood that if the ghost who talked about Mi Qing was William Hawkins back then, then this ugly and deformed monster should be Bagley who disappeared in the prison!

'Bagley disappeared into the prison and no one could find his whereabouts. It turned out that he was hiding in the sewers!'

'That's right... Baglay found this secret passage back then, but he couldn't cross the water without a raft... Or maybe he encountered something unexpected while crossing the water, so it turned into this miserable appearance now.'

'And William Hawkins became a ghost under its control - a so-called 'talking ghost' in the prison. Under Bagley's control, he brought fresh ideas to it.

Blood food maintains its life...'

Chen Yan's thoughts were clear. He hadn't felt that his brain worked so well for a long time.

‘One more thing: William Hawkins, also known as the Koujimi Qinggui, brought me here through [Cold Mist].’

‘The path opened by [Cold Mist] directly spans the walls and floors of the prison.’

'William Hawkins has this ability, but he didn't get Bagley out, which means they can't get out - there must be something binding them, maybe a curse, maybe...'

Chen Yan looked into the dark depths in the distance of the water and felt cold all over his body.

There may be something more sinister in the darkness...

Chen Yan originally thought that he only had to deal with the Mi Qinggui, but now there is suddenly such an ugly and deformed monster. He alone cannot deal with it no matter what.

Chen Yan, who was standing at the back, crouched down under the cover of other Chen Yans. The spell Jack Baldo told him clearly appeared in his memory. He stretched out his fingers and started drawing on the dirt.

At this time, Bagley, who was completely transformed into a monster, was already muttering to himself and calling "Nate" while approaching Chen Yan who was at the front.

The distance between them is less than 1 meter.

"Nate...Nate..."

The monster Baglay, who could not go back at all, looked at Chen Yan. There was no trace of pupils in his dim eyes. When the distance was so close, Chen Yan finally saw that Baglay's brain had already

More than half of it disappeared, replaced by turbid muddy water.

"I'm not Nate." Chen Yan said calmly.

When he said these words, he immediately felt that the emotion of "fear" erupted in the heart of the Miqing ghost next to him, that is, William Hawkins.

It seemed to be afraid that Chen Yan would anger Baglay.

Bagley has never encountered such a situation. Everyone else who has been here will try to deceive or beg for mercy. No one has ever told the truth directly like Chen Yan.

It thought for a while before confirming again in that hoarse and harsh voice:

"Aren't you Nate Jacobs?"

Oh...this Nate Jacob, this is the boss who abandoned Bagley back then.

Chen Yan replied slowly:

"Not at all, who is he?"

Bagley's hoarse and harsh voice seemed to be mixed with longing for beauty:

"He is an elegant gentleman, a tough guy who is not afraid of power, and a great man who can be relied upon..."

It said and cried:

"But I angered him and he didn't want to be with me anymore..."

Bagley's mind was obviously abnormal, so much so that he couldn't even speak clearly.

It has obviously become stupid and crazy, but it possesses huge power, and has William Hawkins, a ghost that can be driven by him as a demon. This situation is very troublesome for Chen Yan.

He thought again: For a long time before I lost control and went bad, I was crazy with a revolver. Do other people fear me as much as I fear Bagley now?

In a moment, Bagley's cry could be heard in his ears.

The voice when it spoke was already harsh enough, and the cry sounded even more painful. It was like shards of glass breaking bit by bit in its throat. The explosive sound produced when it broke twisted the human spirit and made people painful.

Unbearable.

What is incredible is that these explosions are connected in a series, forming some kind of painful rhythm.

Along with its low murmur, the sound actually became something...

singing.

Its plaintive song echoed in the small underground space. As it sang, Chen Yan found that he couldn't move. He stood frozen on the spot, completely at the mercy of others!

'Damn it! What the hell is this ability!'

Fortunately, the impact of this song was indistinguishable. When the song sounded, the man next to him, namely William Hawkins, also froze in place and could not move.

The singing caused not only physical stiffness, but also confusion of consciousness.

After Chen Yan left the main body, their hearing and vision were clear, and they were completely free from the influence of the out-of-control.

But under the influence of the song, some evil thoughts deep in his memory were drawn out and continuously amplified in his brain, constantly distorting his emotions and affecting his mind.

If it weren't for the subconscious resistance of the tempered will, Chen Yan and the others might have entered a state of control again.

It wasn't until a moment later that Bagley's singing finally ended.

Chen Yan and others collapsed on the ground and staggered around, thinking in their hearts:

"If its singing hadn't ended, I might have lost control of myself mentally again."

'The song itself is a curse! But Bagley has lost control, is mentally disturbed, and has no ability to actively use the power of this curse, so he left me a glimmer of hope.'

'I need to hurry up!'

William Hawkins was not much better. He seemed to have been through a big battle and had to hold on to the wall to stand still.

Bagley called in a low voice:

"William, are you there?"

Bagley, whose mind was completely unclear, called out the name of William Hawkins.

William Hawkins, who had already been sucked dry by it, came forward and knelt on one knee in front of it.

"William, I'm hungry, let's eat..."

These words seemed to inject some kind of power into William Hawkins. He stood up suddenly and walked towards Chen Yan with great momentum.

It was also at this time that Chen Yan, who was surrounded by a bunch of Chen Yan in the middle, was finally ready. He stood on the drawn spell, straightened his body and stretched out his arms, shouting:

"Praise the sun!"
