Chapter 1041: Chapter 1040: The Mysterious Whirlpool
It was while Han Dong stared at the door, at the whirlpool imprint carved out by so kind of tal tool.
Ga ka~ Ga ji~
A faint noise reached his ears.
It sounded similar to bones and flesh thrown between millstones, forcibly ground together.
Yet, it was finer, like a ‘small portion being slowly’ finely ground.
Listening carefully, he realized that the noise originated from the third room on the left starting from the elevator entrance.
“Is it coming from that old man’s room?”
The receptionist imdiately understood Han Dong’s implication and handed over a spare room key.
But she herself didn’t wish to go there.
Even without being targeted by the ‘vortex,’ contact with the victims could also carry the possibility of ‘contagion.’
“Let’s go, Mary… Mary?”
Under normal circumstances, Maritzis would follow imdiately.
But after hearing about the ‘vortex incident,’ Maritzis hesitated.
After all, the intelligence indicated that even the great Duke Vlad of London City—a Mythic Body—had yet to resolve this matter.
Moreover, Maritzis, who had previously only moved between Toad City (N’Kai) and her own territory, rarely went elsewhere and had never encountered the darkness of London City.
The darkness of London City itself made her sowhat uncomfortable, and the bizarre event at hand caused her slight fear.
Currently, she squatted on the sofa in a toad’s crouch, her watery eyes staring at Han Dong by the door.
“Don’t rush… This Lord is a bit acclimatizing.
Your movents should be slower, don’t let us also fall victim to the ‘spiral’s’ assault.”
“If there was going to be trouble, we would have been attacked last night, now it’s relatively safer… hurry up and co over.”
“Alright.”
Maritzis outwardly appeared unafraid, yet actually kept half of her body tightly behind Han Dong, and the [water secretion] between their skins steadily increased.
When they arrived in front of the room of the elderly man, Mary peeked out her head, lightly resting it on Han Dong’s shoulder.
Ka~ The room key was recognized successfully, the black fog in the card slot pushing the lock open.
As Han Dong slowly pushed open the door, the scene that t his eyes startled Maritzis so much that she swiftly covered her mouth, and the abundant water inside her body spilled out, drenching Han Dong’s back entirely.
This ti, even Han Dong displayed an expression of furrowed brows, the scene before him extraordinarily bizarre.
“No wonder it would cause the [Demons] to panic, wanting to flee from their native ho…”
The sight that presented itself upon opening the door did not imdiately include the old man.
Instead, it was filled with peculiar scenes.
The bedding had been deliberately folded into a regular spiral placed in the center of the bed.
The walls of the room were also covered with large and small irregular swirling patterns, not made by tal carving, but rather by the old man digging them out one by one with his nails, even leaving so broken nails and blood residue on them.
Even the candles in the room had spiral patterns carved on them.
This visual impact made Han Dong feel unwell.
Even the thought of ‘turning his head’ arose in his mind, and Han Dong’s head subconsciously rotated 15° before the strong psychic power dispelled this notion.
Maritzis, following behind, also subtly twisted her waist.
“No wonder the receptionist didn’t want to co here, just witnessing the scene can affect one’s psyche…”
Ga ji ga ji~
The faint grinding noise was coming from the bathroom stall.
“Let’s go and have a look…”
“Slow down!” Mary practically stuck her entire body to Han Dong’s back, not leaving his side by an inch.
The candlelight in the bathroom flickered faintly,
The tal door lock had been forcibly twisted into a spiral shape by so strange force,
Before pushing the door open, Maritzis had already closed her eyes in anticipation.
Only Han Dong’s gaze was steadfast, and he prepared himself for any special circumstances.
Ga~ Opening the door.
The scene in the bathroom was even more horrifying than so polluted images.
Just a few dozen minutes had passed.
The elder, whose one finger had taken on a spiral shape, now had all ten fingers altered,
His body, like a “retracted tape asure”, was coiled into several rounds and laid flat on the ground,
Even his pupils had beco vortex-shaped, and the tongue tucked in his mouth was also curled like a snail shell.
Han Dong imdiately dispelled the thought of ‘rotating’ and closely examined the elder before him… The death divinity granted by Anubis enabled Han Dong to sense that the elder would die completely within a minute.
It was very strange.
You know, demons are very powerful.
Even a newborn demon would require a formal Knight Squad to deal with.
The Stone Demon that once sneaked into the Holy City was only killed by Cass in a hard fight with the joint efforts of Han Dong and the others.
At present.
With the enhancent of darkness, these Dark Denizens of London City should possess stronger regenerative abilities.
Just randomly twisting like this, the body wouldn’t die…
However.
The elder demon before him felt weaker than a human.
At that mont.
An echo, as though emitted through spiral-shaped vocal cords, ca from the elder’s mouth.
“I… I have failed.
Quick, kill
quickly… I don’t want to be sucked in.”
[Failed… What failed?]
Just as Han Dong was about to ask.
He found the elder’s throat twisted further, preventing him from speaking.
Han Dong imdiately made a decision, “Nicole, use the highest level of ‘Deep Sea Secret thod’ to stabilize his vital signs.”
“Okay!”
Four pink tentacles extended from Han Dong’s back, beginning to construct a formation.
Soon.
A magic structure similar to a water tank enveloped the elder completely, continuously conveying vitality while using seawater to extract excess substances from the elder’s body.
“Hm? What is this situation…”
Nicole’s ‘Deep Sea Secret thod’ was very effective in healing and purification.
But the elder, encased in seawater, only had his death slowed down, with no sign of recovery at all.
rely extending the one-minute death ti to an hour.
The twisting of the body continued unabated.
With a raise of his hand.
Grains of black sand crystals ford a coffin, enclosing the water tank within.
The shape of the coffin was also more suitable for carrying on one’s back.
Han Dong had to figure out so things before the elder died, to discover what was causing the elder to take on a spiral shape.
“Maritzis, take a trip outside the city… If we can’t figure out the essence of this thing, we could be in danger.”
“Let’s leave the hotel first, spatial transmission isn’t possible here.”
“Yes, let’s go.”
In the current situation.
Han Dong naturally had his Magic Eye Wide Open, since if he could see it once, he could surely see it a second ti.
Just as Han Dong slung the coffin on his back, preparing to leave this strange room with Maritzis.
He caught a glimpse of sothing odd in the bathroom mirror out of the corner of his eye.
The mirror reflected a bizarrely twisted arm.
This ti, because the distance was close, Han Dong also saw part of a body, a part with an ashen corpse hue and a surface painted with nurous vortex patterns.
Standing right beside Maritzis.
