Calamity Crown

altar? !

Goethe immediately frowned when he heard Ann's description.

After experiencing the "Flesh Church" summoning the "Gate of Flesh" in the "Origin World", when he heard the word altar, Goethe almost had a ptsd reaction.

Without hesitation, Goethe turned to look at Jialifa.

"Can I borrow your work permit?"

Goethe asked.

Although Jialifa was puzzled, the forensic doctor did not refuse, and directly took off the work permit from his neck-this is a forensic work permit, which can be hung on the chest or around the neck.

"Thanks."

After Goethe thanked him, he immediately started divination.

'Is the altar down there? '

The work permit immediately rotated along with the trend.

This made Goethe's heart tighten.

'Is it dangerous? '

Work permits rotated again.

The vigilance in Goethe's heart rose sharply.

Then, he continued to ask.

'Did it work? '

After the proof of work showed a pause, it rotated again.

This made Goethe squint.

When divination, some subtle gaps contain quite a lot of information.

【Shadow Snake Tail Devouring Technique】is no exception.

Goethe, however, was not ready to read what it meant.

First of all, Goethe's [heart] is too low, even with the enhancement of [Steinbeck Breathing Method], it is only 0.2.

Second, the uncertainty of divination.

Even if those well-known fortune-tellers came, it was impossible for them all to read the fortune-telling information accurately.

But this does not prevent Goethe from guessing.

"It should be successful in the end, but it has experienced twists and turns, or has it simply become another 'successful state'?"

Goethe thought, and then, divination again.

‘Will it be dangerous if I go to explore this altar now? '

The work permit is immediately reversed.

This made Goethe slightly relieved. After returning the work permit to Jialifa, he looked at Ann and said directly.

"Is there any equipment left?"

"I want to go and see."

"have!"

Ann nodded, and immediately asked Husta to remove a diving suit and an oxygen cylinder from the car—although the stagnant water began to recede, most of the sewers still needed to be dived.

"Follow me!"

After Ann finished speaking, she went down the ladder at the mouth of the well again.

Goethe, who was dressed, followed closely behind.

Bad smell, sewage.

It didn't make Goethe feel uncomfortable.

Goethe, who strayed into it when he was in the "club" in his hometown, encountered a worse environment than this during the initial training.

That was something he would never want to recall.

After turning on the underwater light on his shoulder, the turbidity in front of his eyes floated up and down.

Ann turned her head to look at Goethe, who was a little fuzzy.

When he found that Goethe didn't feel uncomfortable at all, a smile flashed across his eyes.

Sure enough, she is the same person!

After making a gesture to continue, An Bi swam forward.

Goethe followed behind, bypassed several forks, and followed Anne into a space where he could breathe freely-it was not flooded with sewage, and it was very dry.

Moreover, there is also an upward ladder.

But the smell got worse.

If the sewage is just a bad smell, here it is a fishy smell.

The dried blood formed special scabs, scraping on the ground and walls.

Goethe borrowed the light from his shoulder to look around, his eyes flashed with surprise.

"Is this the 'secret chamber' dug from the side of the sewer?"

"Um."

"And it was excavated after the flood season inspection!"

"If it wasn't for the rain and the crocodile, it wouldn't have been found at all!"

Ann said, motioning for Goethe to follow her.

The two walked forward for about ten meters, and after turning a corner, Goethe saw the altar that An said.

Four human corpses were punctured by wooden stakes and stood in a row, showing a "one". The blood had already dried up, and densely packed maggots shuttled through the carrion.

Below the four human corpses were four animal corpses.

Bears, wolves, eagles, leopards.

Like the human corpses, the four animal corpses were also highly decomposed.

But even so, Goethe can clearly distinguish that human and animal corpses are mutilated.

The first human body is missing an arm, and the bear body below is also missing its claws.

The second human corpse is missing ears, as is the wolf corpse below.

The third human corpse is missing both eyes, as is the eagle corpse below.

The fourth human body is missing both legs, as is the leopard body below.

It is completely pairwise.

Goethe circled twice around the four human and four animal corpses.

He wants more information.

But, no more.

There should have been traces of [Tufuyu] and [Ritual Guidance] on the ground, but they have been wiped away at this time. Except for the eight corpses, there is almost nothing left here.

But there are traces of life.

There is a blanket and some canned and bottled water in the corner.

This made Goethe even more vigilant.

What is the scariest thing about 'extraordinary power'?

Unknown enemy!

You don't know what kind of power the other party will have!

Under such a premise, you may die for no apparent reason!

Even if the "mystery of the world" in front of you is fading" and "the extraordinary has long faded".

Or……

The more this is the case, the more dangerous it is.

Because, under such a premise, the 'supernatural power' that can be preserved and used must have merits.

"An unexpected enemy?"

Goethe sighed secretly.

Although he broke in here by accident, but look at the ritual like 'blood sacrifice' in front of him, what kind of person would be able to perform such a ritual?

Cruel and cold-blooded for sure.

Whether he has other perverted hobbies or not is uncertain.

What will happen to such a person in the face of intruders, even unintentional intruders?

The answer is obvious.

kill!

Other than that, nothing else is possible.

As for whether the other party will change his attitude after finding out that he also has 'supernatural power'?

Goethe didn't know.

But there is one thing that Goethe knows, or is extremely concerned about.

Is the location where the other party set up this 'altar' too close to the 'Folk Research Institute'?

besides!

His adoptive father, Winchester, disappeared half a year ago!

Is there any connection here?

Goethe thought in his heart.

Then, he turned to look at Ann.

"Can it blow up here?"

Goethe asked.

"It depends on the design drawing. I will consult with you. If possible, blow up here."

After thinking carefully, An replied.

Then the policewoman asked again.

"What to do with these corpses?"

"Burn!"

Flames are always capable of destroying everything.

Including, mysterious.

Goethe checked this place twice more carefully, and after confirming that there was nothing of value, he and Ann returned to the ground again.

Xiusta and Jialifa took bottled water to help them clean the dirt on their bodies, especially their hair. The smell really made people shy away.

When Shusta was about to get another bottle of water, Goethe waved his hand and refused.

"I'll go home and wash."

Goethe said so.

Then, turn around and leave.

Although Goethe could tolerate such a smell, it didn't mean that Goethe would like it.

Ann looked at Goethe's back and hesitated.

In the end, he chose to take the bottled water in Xiusta's hand and continue to wash simply.

Kerry Law, who has been paying attention to his friends, sighed again and again.

"What about being single for the rest of your life?"

"How about a nursing home together?"

"Ann, you've changed!"

"Ann, you're dirty!"

As he said that, Jialifa puffed up his cheeks angrily, and suddenly, his pretty face became like an angry puffer fish.

"He claims to be a 'folklorist', but don't you see that he just used my work card to divination?"

"It's all the tricks of psychics and psychics!"

"And, no work ethic!"

"At least, those liars know how to find a pendulum with a crystal pendant!"

Like a machine gun, Garifa kept talking.

"Wash my hair."

Ann said lightly.

"good!"

Garifa immediately shut up and poured water obediently.

...

Using the spare key hidden under the floor mat, Goethe returned to the 'Folklore Research Institute' and found that Teacher Zhu Di was standing in front of the whiteboard intently, looking at the folklore materials.

The sound of the door opening did not bring the math teacher back to his senses.

"Cough, cough."

Goethe coughed lightly.

"Sorry, sorry."

"I accidentally watched it fascinated!"

"So this is a folk custom?"

"Many are stories I heard when I was a child!"

Teacher Zhu Di pointed to the information of "Gap Girl", with interest on her face.

"This is very similar to a story I heard when I was a child. My friend told me that an actress was cut in half and drained of blood. In the grass by the side of the road."

The math teacher recalled.

"That's a real case, it's different from "Gap Girl"."

"Its detailed record is in the second note on my desk."

Goethe shook his head.

"Then "Girl with the Gap" is a fake?"

Teacher Judy blinked curiously.

"Who knows?"

"Maybe there really was a beauty-loving lady who failed in plastic surgery, killed the plastic surgeon, and then committed suicide?"

"Maybe its prototype comes from a story you've heard?"

"After all, just like what you just said, teacher, many times, they are said by friends of my friends."

Goethe explained.

"So this is ah!"

Teacher Judy nodded suddenly.

Then……

Suddenly lowered his head.

The sunlight shining into the room seemed to have lost its temperature at this moment.

In the clear air after the rain, there is an extra viscous feeling.

Like a snake crawling.

Teacher Judy's hair fell from both sides, covering her face, she spoke in a very low voice.

"Do you think I'm beautiful?"

With that said, Teacher Judy raised her head.

At this moment, the corners of the mouth have been completely cut to the base of the ears. The scarlet gums and pale teeth are completely exposed. The originally beautiful face has become ugly and terrifying at this moment.

Especially when a pair of huge scissors appeared in her hands, it looked even more ferocious.

She stepped forward step by step.

She, staring at Goethe, waited for an answer.

The scissors in his hand have been raised.

It seemed that Goethe would cut the corners of Goethe's mouth if he didn't give her a satisfactory answer.

Goethe looked at the other party, suddenly raised his hands, stretched out two index fingers, pressed them on the corners of his mouth, and raised them slightly.

Immediately, a strange smile seemed to appear on Goethe's face.

He said softly—

"Why so serious?"
