Tribulation of Mysteries

Chapter 19:

Ever since he discovered this survivor camp, Aaron had almost given up on everything in his territory. Every day, he would enter his dreams and observe everything with full concentration.

On this day, he witnessed the biggest dispute in the sanctuary.

The cause of the dispute seemed to be the evolution of the monsters and the shortage of food.

…

"We can't go on like this!"

A blonde-haired man screamed fiercely. He waved his arms wildly as if trying to increase his persuasiveness. A few times, he threw his arms at Aaron and passed right through him.

"Those monsters are getting stronger and stronger, and the food we can get is getting less and less. If this goes on, everyone in this sanctuary … will die!"

He said a cruel truth.

"Sauron, what are you going to do?" Xiu pulled the two children behind him and asked calmly.

"Move! Move to the north. I heard that there is already a bigger gathering point there. They have extraordinary power! It's very safe, and there's enough food! "

Sauron answered without hesitation.

"Those people from the north?" The people in the sanctuary were a little restless, as if they had heard this news before.

"Yes, among them, there are even superhumans who can kill dangerous species with their bare hands!" Sauron said. "If we join them, we can get the same power!"

"Those evil believers who call themselves the 'Black Sun Cult'?" Xiu sneered. "I heard that they will burn people alive as sacrifices!"

"So what? In order to survive, we have to give up something. " Sauron suddenly laughed sinisterly. "He's there, he's in the sky, he's watching us … Don't tell me you've never heard those … oracles!"

Aaron was stunned. He had only heard some ravings when the Black Sun and those terrifying existences were born. After that, he had not received any more information.

But looking at the expressions of the people in the sanctuary, they seemed to be able to hear it occasionally?

"Yes, the Black Sun is above us, but I didn't hear any 'inspiration'. There were only chaotic roars and the ravings of a madman … When I resisted it, I never heard it again."This chapter is updat𝓮d by nov(e)(l)biin.com

Xiu sneered. "Are you sure you want to worship those crazy things? I can guarantee that the Black Sun in the sky definitely doesn't know that there's a Black Sun Cult on the ground … "

"You're right, the Black Sun doesn't need us, but that doesn't stop us from worshipping him."

"Just as the sun doesn't want to nurture all things, it simply emits light. God doesn't want to inspire believers. He just naturally emits power, and we follow his path, his light, and pray for protection."

A solemn voice suddenly sounded from outside the shelter.

Aaron looked over and saw three black-robed men standing outside the shelter. All of them were skinny, like skeletons that had come back to life.

The one who had spoken earlier was the leader of the trio, an old man with a large number of strange tattoos on his bald head.

"Members of the Black Sun Cult? How did they find this place? Sauron! You betrayed us? "

It was unknown when a flintlock gun had appeared in Xiu's hand, and She pointed it at the old man who had spoken.

"My child, put down your weapon, and the Black Sun will forgive you."

The old man had a gentle smile on his face. "You're right, the Lord of Eclipse doesn't care about the beliefs of ants, but that kind of existence, just the light and heat emitted naturally is enough to protect us. We're just … poor people trying to survive in this cruel world."

"Lies!"

Xiu moved closer to the window, as if She wanted to find a chance to escape.

However, the old man did not take out his weapon. He only smiled and looked at everyone. "The Black Sun needs to be worshipped, the Black Sun needs sacrifices! Only by suffering can one achieve greatness! Foolish lambs, one day you will understand that the Black Sun is the savior of all things! "

"The light has passed, gone forever. The black sun has descended, the bell is long and drawn-out. All things die, but I stay!"

Behind the old man, the two black-robed men opened their hands and began to chant strange spells.

Their language seemed to be a foreign language, but it also seemed to be mixed with some strange words. Aaron had heard it before, the supernatural language of the Black Sun's ravings, and he could completely understand its meaning.

At this time, the language seemed to have a strange power.

A black wind blew toward the shelter.

The wind seemed to have a life of its own. It restrained Xiu, who wanted to escape, and she could not even pull the trigger.

Xiu's expression instantly became pained. Her eyes were bloodshot, and the blood vessels around her ears kept wriggling as if she was being tortured.

As for Eyke and Lin, they fainted in an instant.

…

"Is this … a spell?"

Aaron did not feel anything. Looking at this scene, his eyes became complicated. "A real supernatural power, a power that can be controlled by humans! These churches … are quite interesting! "

Although it sounded like these churches were spontaneous organizations that were summoned, there was no doubt that they had achieved some success on the path of getting closer to those terrifying existences.

When the incantation stopped, there was no one left standing in the shelter.

Even the traitor, Sauron, had fainted.

The old man's gentle gaze swept over the place. For some reason, this empty shelter gave him a strange feeling.

It was as if there was someone or "something" that was looking down at them.

He did not stay for long and ordered, "Take everyone away. Our church will have another batch of brothers and sisters."

Soon, many believers in black robes came from all directions. Their expressions were solemn as they carried the unconscious survivors and supplies. Occasionally, their arms and necks were exposed, and there were hideous burn marks …

A fully loaded caravan immediately set off. Even the high priest did not notice that there was an invisible spirit following behind the caravan.

…

In reality.

Aaron woke up with a playful expression.

Suddenly, he opened his mouth and uttered a string of strange syllables, "The light has passed, gone forever. The black sun has descended, the bell is long and drawn-out. All things die, but I stay!"

This was a spell that he had memorized. Some of the syllables were simply challenging the limits of humans.

However, under the effect of [Extraordinary Memory], they were still recorded.

"My Lord?"

The door opened. The maid, Daly, rubbed her eyes and looked at Aaron with a confused expression.

"It's nothing. You can leave first!"

After sending the maid away, Aaron sighed. "Even if I learned the same thing, it's useless? Could it be … this world is really a world without magic? "

He felt a little frustrated.

Perhaps it was impossible to be immortal in this world.
