"Will!"
Joyce imdiately prepared to enter the wooden shed.
But William reached out to stop her.
The latter looked confused.
"Mrs. Byers, please bring all the light bulbs from your house."
William said, then looked at the teenagers.
"Please prepare 26 sheets of paper and write all the English letters on them."
He planned to follow Joyce's thod in the original work to communicate with the phantom in the Upside Down.
Yes, William wanted to reconfirm the identity of the phantom inside.
Joyce nodded vigorously.
She imdiately understood the priest's intention and turned to run back to the room.
At the sa ti, she was surprised by his wit.
A mont later, Joyce returned with a bunch of stuff.
Since there weren't many desk lamps at ho, she even dismantled the tube light from the bathroom ceiling.
Soon, the backyard ground was filled with light bulbs, each corresponding to a letter below.
During this ti, William wasn't idle either.
He and Emma set up another protective circle around the wooden shed.
In case the phantom wasn't Will, William could react in ti.
Everything was ready; he communicated with the phantom in the wooden shed again.
"Please spell the full na..."
After several verifications, William finally confird that the other party was indeed Will.
At the sa ti, Joyce couldn't bear it any longer and squatted beside the light bulb that had just lit up.
She was at a loss, only able to stroke the light bulbs one by one, imagining they were her son's face.
William didn't expect to locate Will so quickly.
After all, the Upside Down was huge. To avoid the Demogorgon's hunt, Will had been wandering around his "ho."
Now that Will's trace was located, he should consider how to bring him back from the Upside Down.
William already had a plan.
Creatures in the Upside Down had the ability to open the passage between the two sides.
If he could lure a monster to the present world, Will could return along the passage.
Thinking of this, he imdiately asked Joyce if there was raw at at ho, preferably with so blood.
The latter trusted William completely at this ti and imdiately got up to return to the house.
Joyce opened the refrigerator and took out so frozen at.
This was bought by her eldest son Jonathan before.
Since Hawkins was a remote place, the slaughtering process here was naturally not comparable to the city.
For example, so cheap at on the market still had blood residue.
After spending so effort to thaw it, Joyce carried a bowl containing raw at and blood water.
At this ti, the sound of unlocking ca from outside the door.
Creeeeak.
Jonathan opened the door and happened to see Joyce carrying the bowl.
"What happened?" He asked confusedly.
"Will is found!"
Joyce was emotional.
"There is a priest; he is an exorcist..."
Abnormal behavior of his mother, raw at and blood water, so weird ritual.
This gave Jonathan a bad feeling.
Did his mother join so cult organization because she missed Will too much?
He imdiately raised his vigilance and tried to grab the bowl from his mother.
"Mom! I know you are in pain, but..."
Jonathan tried to persuade her, but found that his mother had completely lost her reason.
He had to follow his mother.
Once in the backyard, Jonathan's heart went cold.
He saw many light bulbs on the ground, corresponding to English letters below.
Isn't this planning to communicate with so evil god!
And not only that, Jonathan also saw his brother's three best friends.
They surrounded an Asian priest, who was placing crucifixes in their hands one by one.
"Hey! Who are you! What are you doing in my house!"
Jonathan rushed into the yard and kicked all the light bulbs away.
Then he picked up a wooden stick from the ground and threatened:
"Stop your evil ritual imdiately, or I won't be polite!"
William looked confused.
"Relax, I'm here to save Will. You can ask Joy..."
"Don't try to bewitch !" Jonathan shouted: "Get out of my house imdiately!"
William turned his head and looked at Joyce behind him.
"I explained, but he didn't believe..." Because she was carrying the bowl, she was a step behind.
William was about to speak again, but suddenly frowned.
He sensed a dangerous aura.
At the sa ti, three light bulbs on the ground lit up in sequence.
The letters they corresponded to were: R, U, N.
William imdiately took a few steps back, standing in the safety zone he set up.
"Mike, Dustin... you guys co here quickly!"
Jonathan assud an attacking posture, thinking his previous threat worked.
But in the next mont.
He saw his brother's friends looking behind him in shock.
Jonathan was puzzled inside and turned his head slowly.
Then he saw a scene that terrified him.
The surface of a big tree next to him suddenly twisted, revealing the outline of a creature.
This thing looked human, but its height was close to three ters.
Jonathan could clearly see its sharp claws.
At the sa ti, a crack appeared on the surface of the big tree, flashing red light inside.
"What is... this?"
He stood frozen on the spot, not even noticing the monster's claws attacking him.
"Jonathan!"
Joyce shouted anxiously.
Just when Jonathan thought he was going to die, the monster suddenly changed direction.
Then it grabbed a crucifix from the bottom of the tree.
Sizzle... hiss...
The monster's hand was instantly burned; it roared but didn't let go.
William raised an eyebrow upon seeing this.
It took a full five seconds for the monster to disappear again.
Then, William found that Will's phantom also disappeared.
Not only that, it seed that the power related to the Upside Down in the backyard was erased.
The breeze blew across the ground; everything returned to calm again.
William concentrated highly, observing while retreating.
If he guessed correctly, the outline just now was the Demogorgon.
But this thing only had wild instincts.
Just now William's crucifix clearly hurt it, but the latter could restrain its instinct.
This reminded him of another monster in the Upside Down—The Mind Flayer.
This was the actual ruler of the Upside Down, a collective consciousness of all creatures.
"Did it find that the Demogorgon couldn't beat , so it ran away?"
William guessed the other party's intention.
"Fa... Father, what was that just now?"
Jonathan was soaked through, asking fearfully.
"The monster that took your brother."
Emma spoke at this ti.
She told the story of William's plan to set a trap to save Will.
"Now, thanks to you, this plan is ruined!"
Emma looked unkind, despising stupidity inside!
The other party disrupted all the things she worked hard to set up.
"Will!"
Joyce ran to the light bulbs at this ti, but they didn't light up again.
"Father, where is Will?" She looked worried.
"Sorry, I lost his trace."
William spread his hands.
The one in the Upside Down actively cut off the connection with reality, so he naturally lost the clue.
"So... sorry."
Jonathan looked apologetic, looking at William.
Thinking of what happened just now, Jonathan realized he had made a mistake.
...
On the other side.
Hawkins National Laboratory, Underground Observation Deck.
On one of the walls, there was a huge crack flashing with red light inside.
Many vine-like tentacles extended from the inside.
Their surface was black and red, like so kind of living creature.
At this ti, many researchers wearing protective suits were investigating and sampling here.
One researcher, Mark, found so movent in the crack.
He stepped forward curiously.
He saw a fluid black shadow extending from the crack, hovering in front of him.
Having been assigned here for a few months, he had never seen this thing before.
Mark was excited inside.
The person in charge of the laboratory, Dr. Martin Brenner, had explained that anyone who discovered new things in the crack...
Would receive generous rewards.
Publishing papers in well-known academic journals, large sums of wealth, social status.
Mark foresaw the future waving at him.
He picked up the scanner, his hands trembling as he approached the black shadow.
Squelch.
But in the next mont, the black shadow suddenly shattered the glass mask and forced itself into Mark's mouth.
The latter only felt sothing enter his body, and then lost consciousness completely.
Other researchers soon discovered the abnormality.
But at this ti, more black shadows extended from the crack, attacking everyone present.
Before falling completely, a researcher managed to sound the alarm.
