NO.222 Call of Cthulhu

It was as if his vision had penetrated the long river of time. Zhang Heng's eyes were dazed. He seemed to see the strings of lighting equipment on the top of the mine cave constantly lit up, and it was no longer as dark as before. Not only that, hundreds of people appeared out of thin air in the mine cave. These people were wearing equipment for mines and wearing yellow safety helmets on their heads. Zhang Heng could also see the logo of Dunwich Company on everyone's safety helmets.

In a trance, the group of people went in and out, as if watching a fast-forward movie. When going to work and getting off work, countless workers walked past Zhang Heng, and many equipment were also moved around. Zhang Heng could only see the mine cave deepening, getting further and further, getting deeper and deeper.

This scene continued to happen in the mine cave, as if it had been compressed for several years, and Zhang Heng was still in a trance. He couldn't help but raise his foot and walked step by step towards the depths of the mine cave. With each step, the darkness in front of the mine cave was pulled closer. However, after walking thirty or forty steps, suddenly the eyes lit up, and Zhang Heng actually found that he had reached the end of the mine cave thousands of meters away.

At the end, there is a hall that is not spacious or small. There is an altar with a strange shape in the center of the hall. Around the altar, dozens of people are constantly kneeling towards the altar, each with indescribable pathology and fanaticism on their faces.

A strange sound came from these people, and Zhang Heng's unsightly eyes moved slightly. If he was awake at this time, he could tell immediately that this sound was the strange sound he heard from Abbott's mouth! It was like iron sandpaper scratching the glass, not only harsh, but also inexplicably irritable.

But after entering the hallucination, Zhang Heng was in a hazy state, as if he was dreaming, and he had no idea what he was doing.

After a while, these fanatical devout believers finally stood up with satisfaction, and then they only saw countless corpses being moved in from outside the mine and placed on the altar according to some kind of picture. The identity of these corpses was the group of workers. Hundreds of corpses were stacked on each other, almost forming a mountain of corpses!

These crazy believers didn't know how they killed hundreds of workers. Although Zhang Heng was in hallucination, his memory still worked. Almost every face he saw before could be found in the mountain of corpses.

It seemed that not long after, a thick smoke rose from the altar. At the same time, the killed workers began to transform one after another. Their bodies continued to shrink. Although the mine was definitely not dry, the bodies still evaporated the water in their bodies within a few seconds. The skin with corpses began to wrinkle and dry, from ordinary skin to dark red and deep red. Not only that, the red light as big as beans continued to appear in the eyes of these corpses.

Hundreds of corpses slowly climbed up from the corpse mountain, and these corpses completely became monsters like crazy corpses and ghosts that wandered from life and death!

A deep coldness hit Zhang Heng, and a trace of struggle flashed in Zhang Heng's eyes. At the end of the hallucination, he seemed to sense that an indescribable consciousness was slowly awakening, with deep malice and greed, wanting to completely swallow the whole world!

Wow!

The next second, Zhang Heng suddenly opened his eyes. At this moment, he was still standing at the coordinate position that Gu Zhan told him. Adam looked at him with concern, from Zhang Heng falling into hallucination to leaving the hallucination, he didn't even have a moment!

If this is just a little bit, it would be nothing, but after sensing the hallucination, a crack seemed to be heard in a deep place in Zhang Heng's mind!

A sealed memory was broken through by Zhang Heng!

After recalling that word, Zhang Heng suddenly shrank his pupils, and a deep fear flashed in his eyes. He opened his mouth bitterly and said in an extremely dry voice.

"Cthulhu"

That's right, he remembered that the word that was erased in the radiation plane was the three words Cthulhu!

The moment Zhang Heng spoke three words, the entire space seemed to tremble, from the rotation and gravity of the earth to the electromagnetic mutual force of every charged particle in the world, it seemed to be disordered in an instant, sending invisible fluctuations!

"Warning! Warning! Emergency mission is on!"

Just when Zhang Heng was surprised and inexplicably, suddenly, the dimensional star in his mind suddenly sounded!

"Urgent Mission: The Call of Cthulhu prevents the awakening of Cthulhu!"

Zhang Heng was shocked. He never expected that just a subconscious speech would trigger such serious consequences! Stop Cthulhu's awakening? What international joke is this?

However, what is even more unexpected is that just when Zhang Heng was in a cold state, the Dimension Star actually sent a message again!

"Urgent Mission: The Call of Cthulhu's Emergency Mission is Completed."

"The host authority progress is one-third of the level!"

“Current permissions:.”

Are you teasing me?

Zhang Heng staggered and almost fell to the ground!

Adam behind him immediately supported Zhang Heng and said in surprise, "Commander, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay!" Zhang Heng immediately threw away Adam's support and turned around and walked out of the mine.

Seeing Zhang Heng's extremely ugly face, although Adam was puzzled, he still followed Zhang Heng and silently protected him.

It was not until he returned to the Eagle Falcon fighter that Zhang Heng sat in the driver's seat with a limp and cold sweat gushed down his forehead!

It’s not that Zhang Heng has a bad mentality. As the saying goes, those who don’t know are fearless, but it is precisely because Zhang Heng understands what kind of existence Cthulhu is that he is so out of control. It’s not something that the existing scientific system of mankind can explain!

That's right, it's something!

From beginning to end, Zhang Heng didn't even know what Cthulhu was. If according to the setting, Cthulhu was an evil god and an old dominant, but Zhang Heng understood that the so-called god might just be an alien with advanced biotechnology, or Cthulhu was not a creature at all, but a phenomenon in a higher dimension of the universe, or even a meme effect, etc.

However, no matter what Cthulhu is, once Zhang Heng stands on the opposite side of Cthulhu, he will only have a situation of death without life! Because both sides are not the same dimension at all, the book describes that any human who sees the existence of Cthulhu will be seriously ill, unconscious, collapsed, and crazy because he cannot bear the amount of information. Simply put, the value is reduced to zero. This is a situation that only occurs when the low dimension sees the high dimension, just like Zhang Heng saw the four-dimensional world through the Dimension Star! Everything he saw at that moment caused Zhang Heng to be blind in his right eye until the Dimension Star was helped.

Zhang Heng's mind was very confused. He took a few deep breaths and forced himself to calm down. Then he began to ponder. What did he do? Why did he just release the task a second ago, and then said that he had completed the task a second? To be continued.
