Chapter 505 Guidance in Dreams
For Duanmu Huai, being a model is nothing special. The only thing I have to say is that when he took off his clothes and appeared in front of everyone, the female students' eyes lit up, while the male students felt ashamed... Well, it's understandable, understandable.
During the whole process, Duanmu Huai didn't need to do anything. He just made a pose and then wandered around until the time was up. As for what those students painted...well, Duanmuhuai felt that they should ask themselves this question.
Overall, this process was very easy. After the course, Duanmu Huai's relationship with these students became much better. Of course, he also explained his identity to them and sent out a lot of Business card—this is the reason why Duanmu Huai came to the University of Michigan. After all, compared to other places, students and teachers at the University of Michigan have a higher chance of committing suicide, and are more likely to receive commissions, right?
Professor Osborne was also very satisfied with this lecture, and hoped that Duanmuhuai would come often in the future... Well, Duanmuhuai said he would consider it, and that it would be enough to come once a week. After all, he still has his own job to do. It's impossible to come here every day.
Professor Osborne was a little disappointed with Duanmuhuai's answer, but he also expressed understanding.
After spending an afternoon at the University of Michigan, Duanmuhuai returned to his office, finished dinner, watched TV for a while and went to bed.
After all... there is everything in dreams.
And Duanmuhuai's efforts are gradually beginning to bear fruit in some places.
It was a difficult night for Mark Ryan.
It was like now, under the pouring rain, he was huddled in a dilapidated hut, holding a gun tightly in his hand. His precise shooting skills allowed him to accurately hit the eyes of any enemy who dared to rush into the room in this harsh environment. However, the fear that penetrated into his bones still made him tremble.
Mark Lane is a veteran who has been on the battlefield and experienced several life-and-death battles. But none of this could knock him down, because for Mark Lane, all he wanted was to end the war, then return home and reunite with his beloved wife.
Soon, Mark Lane's wish came true. He chose to go home after making outstanding achievements on the battlefield. At that time, Mark Lane thought that his wish was finally coming true. He can return home and live an ordinary and warm life with his wife.
However, this is not the case.
Mark Lane will never forget that afternoon. When he secretly returned home as a surprise to his wife, he heard his wife screaming. When he rushed into the bedroom, the scene in front of him was something Mark Lane would never forget - his wife lying on the bed was torn open from the inside, and then a strange, terrifying monster emerged from his wife's body. He got out of the window, looked at him with a strange and evil smile, then broke through the window and disappeared without a trace.
After that, Mark called the police, but the police did not produce any results. They believed that Mark's wife was probably murdered. As for the monster that Mark described to them as coming out of his wife's body, the police naturally did not believe it. They believed that this was just a result of Mark's being a veteran. Hallucinations caused by battlefield stress symptoms.
But Mark was obviously unwilling to believe the police's conclusion. He was certain that he was not hallucinating at the time. Since the police were unwilling to help, Mark took action on his own and began to investigate.
As an excellent veteran, Mark is naturally unique in reconnaissance and search. Soon, he discovered that his wife seemed to be connected to a mysterious underground church. Although he could not understand the chaotic content described in his wife's diary, apart from the description of his wife's panic and anxiety, Mark could still tell that his wife was entangled by someone from this mysterious church a year ago. After that, she seemed to find that she was being followed every day, which made the wife extremely nervous. She called the police several times, but to no avail.
At that time, my wife also thought that maybe it would be better if Mark came back.
result……………
Of course, Mark would not let these people go. After investigating the address of the mysterious church, he went in directly with a gun. For Mark, there was only one thing he had to do now, and that was to avenge his wife. !
But what Mark didn't expect was that this underground church was not just an illegal church. They even summoned terrifying and terrifying monsters that he had never thought of!
When he encountered an enemy that couldn't even be eliminated by bullets, Mark decisively chose to retreat. Of course, after this time, he finally knew that this mysterious church was not as simple as he imagined. But Mark not only did not choose to retreat because of this, on the contrary, he became more and more convinced that his wife was indeed killed by these damn cultists!
So in this case, he will never let these damn murderers go! And those deformed bastards they believe in!
Mark had no intention of letting go of the mysterious church, and the other party had no intention of letting him go. In fact, after that, Mark had been attacked and assassinated by the other party several times in a row. But in this regard, Mark is still professional, so so far, those guys from the mysterious church have not succeeded.
But even Mark himself doesn't know how long he can sustain it. What he was afraid of was not those people, but those monsters - of course he didn't know what those disgusting monsters were, but it was obvious that this was something he couldn't deal with with bullets and explosives.
Not only that, after that, Mark had nightmares every day, and he could feel that his spirit was gradually declining. Every time he closed his eyes, he could feel a terrifying aura, as if there was some kind of indescribable monster lurking in the darkness, ready to kill him at any moment.
"call……………"
Leaning against the corner, Mark held the pistol tightly and breathed a sigh of relief. He was in a motel in the middle of nowhere. At least Mark was sure that the cultists were not following him. But he did not relax his vigilance because of this. After all, those cultists would use strange spells. He not only witnessed it with his own eyes, but also suffered it personally... In short, it is better to be cautious when dealing with these things.
Thinking of this, Mark picked up a newspaper on the table and opened it, intending to kill some time. Of course, his mind was not on the newspaper at all. Instead, he flipped through the newspaper and carefully listened to the sounds in the corridor and outside the window.
However, at this moment, Mark casually turned to the second page of the newspaper and saw a strange logo.
It was a symbol of a warhammer and a skull, with a line of large words written on it.
“The Mysterious Detective Agency is here to help you solve your problems!
What a mess.
Looking at the advertisement in front of him, Mark frowned. In fact, after discovering that the cultists really had some kind of magic-like ability, Mark also found many channels to try to restrain the other party's power. But those churches are basically liars. They have no power to fight back against the magic of the cultists, and the gods they believe in can't even fart.
So when he saw such an advertisement, Mark immediately regarded it as a piece of propaganda and threw it aside.
Then, he drifted into sleep.
For Mark, dreaming has become a kind of torture.
Every night, when he closed his eyes and fell into sleep, he would go back to that day. He returned home and planned to give his wife a surprise. However, when he opened the door, his wife's screams came from upstairs. After hearing the screams, Mark threw down his salute and rushed up to the second floor. Then he saw how his wife was struggling to death in pain, and the monster emerged from his wife's body and exposed itself to him. The evil and weird smile then disappeared - and then, he looked at his wife's miserable and twisted face and woke up from the nightmare.
What makes Mark most desperate is that he can't change all this. In the dream, he is like a third party living in his body, unable to struggle or refuse, and his body is like a robot that can act on its own, repeating it again and again according to the established steps. Same action.
Tonight was no exception.
"No-----!!!!"
Seeing his wife die in pain again, Mark screamed. He watched helplessly as the monster emerged from his wife's body again, showing him a proud, twisted, ferocious and evil smile. It seemed like it was mocking his powerlessness, and it also seemed like it was teasing his fear.
At this moment, the anger deep in Mark's heart could no longer be contained. At the same time, he suddenly felt a sudden pain on the back of his hand. The next moment, his body that had lost control suddenly returned to control again!
"I am going to kill you!!!!"
Mark roared and stretched out his hand, grabbed the monster tightly, and strangled its neck. The monster seemed not to have expected that Mark could fight back. At this moment, his eyes widened and he waved his claws desperately. It tried to escape, but Mark didn't let go no matter how hard it struggled. In the dream, he repeated it hundreds or thousands of times. This time, he was finally able to take revenge! !
"Gah————!!!"
Finally, with a low cry, the monster's neck was strangled by Mark, and then it collapsed limply. Immediately afterwards, Mark saw the body of the little monster in his hand begin to decompose, turning into pieces of fly ash and disappearing into the air as if it had been burned.
At the same time, the room he was in gradually dissipated. At this moment, Mark finally couldn't help it, hugged his wife's body on the bed, and cried loudly.
“——————!!!”
When Mark opened his eyes again, it was already early morning. At this moment, the corners of his eyes were red and swollen, and tears were streaming down his face. However, what Mark felt at this moment was extremely comfortable. He reached out his hand and tried to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes. But at this moment, Mark suddenly saw a certain pattern on the back of his hand and stopped immediately. .
On the back of his hand, a pattern of intertwined warhammers and skulls appeared like a tattoo.
This is…………………
Mark stared at the back of his hand. He remembered clearly that last night, he felt a burning pain on the back of his hand. It was only after that that he broke free from the invisible shackles and relieved the nightmare.
Moreover, this pattern... Right! !
Thinking of this, Mark hurriedly picked up the newspaper and compared it.
That's right, it's exactly the same as the one in the newspaper advertisement.
What on earth is going on?
Staring at the pattern on the newspaper, Mark thought for a moment, then stood up.
In any case, it seems that he has to go to Arkham City.
