Just as Yi Chen guessed.

The village's underground waterway is adjacent to the church's ceremony area, separated only by a wall.

With the destruction of the church, the seal set here no longer existed, and the chickens used their excellent wall-cutting ability to easily open the connecting passages on both sides.

Walking through the winding underground river, you soon arrived at the wellhead corresponding to the center of the village.

Without rushing up, Yi Chen first asked Xiang Jiqun,

"Xiao Pei, did you see anyone else during the underground river activities?"

"No gurgle!"

After ten minutes of getting along with each other, Xiao Pei finally mustered up the courage to stand firmly on Jin's shoulders after confirming that Jin really didn't know how to tear a chicken apart.

"Um."

It's a bit strange, Yi Chen has clearly agreed with the girl Laini that he will notify her once the problem is eradicated.

Everyone came all the way to the wellhead but still could not see her figure.

"Perhaps it's a problem with the chickens. Laini has never seen so many chickens before, and they are a group of chickens that can easily smash through walls and open roads. They didn't show up because they were in danger."

at this time,

The chickens began to flap their wings and flew out of the well one by one.

Jin was even more exaggerated. He exploded in his body between his calves and jumped out to a height of nearly ten meters, jumping directly out of the well mouth from the bottom.

The same problem faced him again. Due to a temporary heart problem, it was difficult for Yi Chen, who was unable to release the oil, to reach the height of the wellhead.

At this moment, Jin suddenly poked his head out from the top of the well,

"William, it's so strange! We have obviously killed the source of the ashes and eliminated the root of the disease among the churches, but the ashes in the village have not decreased, but are more intense than when we first arrived.

According to the knowledge learned in Gethsemane, this unnatural gray area should slowly disappear after we clean up the root cause. Could it be that there are still seriously ill people hiding in the church?"

"There can't be any remnants, otherwise they will definitely come out to stop us when we deal with the Holy Fetus.

Perhaps it is [environmental delay], which is also mentioned in books. Some of the ashes squeezed between the strata need to wait for hours or even days before they slowly disappear as the root causes are eliminated.

Jin, there should be some butchers and scavengers operating in the villages, would you like to try to clean them up and make them into spare meat cubes to prevent us from encountering an accident on the way back to the city."

"Okay, what about you?"

"I'll take a walk among the underground rivers to see if there are any hiding patients who need to be dealt with."

"See you later then!"

In order to cover up his embarrassment of not being able to go to the well and considering Jin's crazy characteristics, Yi Chen decided to meet the girl Laini alone.

However,

Walking down the familiar cave corridor, the closer he got to Laini's residence, the more solemn Yi Chen's face became.

Because the corridor was filled with black air that was not there before, it even felt like the air had become thicker.

Even after getting closer to a certain distance, the water droplets falling from the stalactites turned into black slime, and thick black water began to flow on the ground.

These black liquids do not have a foul smell, but rather smell quite fragrant, like freshly produced special juice.

And it carries an attribute that Yi Chen is all too familiar with - "rebirth".

But the rebirth of this black liquid is completely different from the flesh-colored rebirth of the Holy Fetus Marcos, and it even feels better.

Little Grape, who was sleeping and resting, also smelled something and was forced to open his mouth and reveal his eyes. He even instinctively wanted to replace Yi Chen's left arm in order to cope with the danger at hand.

"William! Didn't the Holy Fetus just be killed? Isn't the incident over?"

Could it be that there are deeper secrets among the churches, shouldn’t they? All their heritage was clearly used for the birth of the Holy Fetus, and the mother’s body is also there.”

"The situation is a little different. I'm on my way to Laini's residence."

"It's that girl... Could it be!" Little Putao guessed something, and immediately got out from his shoulders, widening his eyes and observing the situation ahead with Yi Chen.

Not far away is the cave where Laini lives, which is also the source of the black liquid.

Snapped!

As Yi Chen stepped inside and the kerosene lamp illuminated the interior,

The portrait of the girl who once sat by the campfire to keep warm and eat was instantly deleted from my mind.

What replaced it was a swollen, squirming black mass,

It sticks to the center of the cave, with more than a dozen jet-black arms growing on its surface...or, in other words, arm-like soft tissues are sucking as much liquid as possible from the stalactites.

The mass is still growing and getting bigger,

There is also the head of a black-haired girl growing on the top of the center.

It seems that someone is visiting,

The head began to turn slowly, and finally faced the visitor at the door.

"Brother, you are here! You have actually succeeded in curing the disease!

However, a strange gray light enveloped me more than ten minutes ago, causing my body to change. I'm really sorry that I couldn't come to greet you."

As he spoke, soft arms covered with mucus extended over,

Yi Chen did not dodge, and allowed the soft tissue to move across his body. There was no malice, it was just a friendly touch.

The girl’s head is none other than Leni Histra

Her hair, which originally covered half of her face, now floats upward like her soft arms, revealing horizontal striped eyes and a forehead with curved horns.

"One-Horned Sheep Boy"

Such characteristics instantly reminded Yi Chen of an important piece of information obtained during the investigation of the village - [Holy Fetus].

The humanoid body with goat characteristics is regarded as the holy fetus. Church members will personally come to take away the holy fetus and send it to the depths of the church for the birth ceremony.

The answer is clear,

The girl Laini is a holy fetus that was left in the underground area for some reason, and was not brought to the church... It is probably her parents who concealed it from the church members and threw the child down the well in advance, hoping that she could continue to survive.

.

"Brother, I'm really sorry... I may need you to do me a favor."

"What?"

"My movement has become inconvenient. Could you please carry me to the [root of the high wall] on your back?"

Yi Chen did not ask for the specific reason.

Just get on the black mass and head to the destination as quickly as possible.

The stone cracks and narrow passages along the way were broken by the village chief, just enough for Laini's ball-shaped body to pass through smoothly.

Soon we arrived at the edge of our destination, and tens of meters below was the gathering place of huge roots, a fleshy mud pond where they absorbed nutrients.

"Brother, just throw me down! If you jump down while carrying me, you might get hurt."

"Fine."

Yi Chen turned his body sideways and let Laini fall freely.

Bang! A lot of mud splashed up, and the girl's head immediately looked up, expressing her gratitude to Yi Chen.

Immediately afterwards, a strange scene happened.

A large number of mouth-shaped structures appeared on the surface of the black mass, sucking the nutrients from the mire like crazy.

The soft arms on the body sprouted spikes from the palms of their hands, piercing into the thick tree roots and sucking the nutrients of the plants that were despised by the church.

The black mass grew rapidly during this process, and even gradually crowded the lower area, turning into an oversized uterine tissue.

【outside world】

The tall tree walls that closed the forest no longer expanded, but withered, withered and even died within minutes.

Yi Chen stood on the edge of the pit the whole time, watching the situation below.

Until a brass watch appeared in the field of vision, with a "long frame" embossed with an umbilical cord engraved at the beginning, and the frame was filled with a black liquid symbolizing rebirth.

The title and name are also attached to the frame.

§The-Bla-of-Palingenesis§

Looking at this scene, Yi Chen showed a mocking smile:

"What an irony... a girl who was not trained by the church, who did not accept sacrifices from so-called teachers, and who ate the lowest flesh and blood plants every day, actually became what the church ultimately wanted to create.

Even more perfect, the new level is higher.

It seems that this group of church members and the so-called Mother of New Life are just "introducers". They establish contact with something ancient through rituals and let the other party send gifts.

This gift does not cease with the death of Marcos,

‘Gift’ will actively look for the next target,
Chapter completed!
