Marvel: Unlimited Possession Chapter 188: Murals
"Huh?"
John Schmidt looked at the strange mask that appeared inside the sarcophagus with a visibly puzzled expression on his face.
He came to the town of Tonsberg for the cosmic Rubik's Cube, and didn't think about the sarcophagus or something else.
"What is this?"
Turning his head, John Schmidt looked at the white-bearded old man behind him and asked in a deep voice.
"Do you think I'll tell you, you won't know anything from my mouth."
Facing John Schmidt's questioning, a strange look flashed in the old man's eyes, and then he replied coldly.
"I admire your tenacity, really." John Schmidt was not annoyed by this, his eyes swept over everything in the church and then stopped on a strange fresco in front of him : "Unfortunately, your resistance is meaningless."
Crossing the body of the white-bearded old man, John Schmidt came to the mural and looked up and down at the mural in front of him.
The content of the frescoes is very complicated. It seems to be divided into three layers. The top is hung with a sculpture that looks like an island. A lot of war scenes are carved in the middle. The bottom layer describes a lot of evil. Hell scene.
John Schmidt frowned and stayed on the carved mural in front of him for a long time. He had a hunch that the mural in front of him seemed to hide a very important secret, but it had not been discovered by himself.
After a few minutes, he still couldn't find the clue he needed. John Schmidt's expression became colder. He turned his head with a stern face, but his eyes inadvertently noticed the strangeness of the scene described in the middle of the mural. .
"I need fire."
Slightly raised the corners of his mouth, John Schmidt shouted to the subordinates behind him without hesitation.
After hearing his order, another officer who looked like a deputy came to John Schmidt with a torch.
"Sir."
Reaching for his off-hand torch, John Schmidt leaned it forward, illuminating a dimly lit part of the mural in front of him.
In the light of the fire, there is a scene in the war. A figure dressed as a sacrificial person raises the item in his hand, and controls a large number of figures to resist the attack from the opposite side.
John Schmidt glanced at the objects in the hands of the sacrificial priests in the frescoes, and then turned to look at the stone masks covering the faces of the corpses in the sarcophagus. A cold expression appeared on the originally cold face. Smile: "It looks like there are other secrets hidden here besides Odin's treasured universe Rubik's Cube."
"Tell me, what exactly is this mask?!"
John Schmidt held a torch, turned around and came to the white-bearded old man who had been guarding here, his originally grim face finally changed.
"I told you, I won't tell you anything."
In addition to facing John Schmidt, the old man remained expressionless and silent.
"I know you're not afraid of death, but are everyone the same as you?" John Schmidt twitched the corners of his mouth and said grimly, "Maybe you should think about other people in this town, some of them must be Have your friends, or kids living here, I don't think you want to see them die because of you?"
As John Schmidt's voice fell, the machine that slammed open the church door quickly turned, turning the muzzle towards the nearby houses.
Faced with the threat of John Schmidt, the old man's breathing suddenly became rapid. He was silent for a while before opening his mouth to reply: "Stone Ghost Face, the name of this mask is called Stone Ghost Face."
"Ghost face?"
Frowning and silently repeating the name of the mask, John Schmidt then asked, "So what exactly does this mask do?"
“…”
Faced with John Schmidt's questioning, this time the white-bearded old man obviously showed a silent attitude and was unwilling to answer.
However, he seems to have forgotten that sometimes silence also represents an answer.
Perceiving the appearance of the old man, John Schmidt showed a disdainful smile at the corner of his mouth, and continued to ask: "Since you don't want to answer more questions about the mask, then I will ask you another question. Tell you. I, where is the universe cube?"
"This is not a force within the reach of mortals."
"You don't have the qualifications to talk in front of me. If you want the people of the town to live, just tell me where it is."
Interrupting the old man's content, John Schmidt threatens again.
John Schmidt's threat obviously played a role, although the old man did not answer, but his eyes have quietly looked behind him.
Noticing the other's gaze, John Schmidt turned his head and immediately noticed another mural on the wall.
"Uktrahir."
Seeing the mural behind him, John Schmidt blurted out its name.
Uktrahir, also known as the tree of the world, is a giant tree in Norse mythology. In Norse mythology, the branches of this tree's giant tree constitute the whole world, and the place where its roots are deep They represent Asgard, Giant Continent, and Hell respectively. At the same time, according to the content of the myth, there is also Quanhwagmir and a poisonous dragon "Nidhogg" who constantly gnaws at the root of the tree. It keeps biting the root until one day when it can finally Bite this giant tree, and the twilight of the gods will come.
He glanced at the mural in front of him. Because of his previous experience, John Schmidt quickly discovered the weirdness of the mural in front of him. A box popped out of it. When the box was opened, the blue light emitted by the Rubik's Cube instantly illuminated John Schmidt's grim face.
"With such a treasure, the Führer actually sent people to dig things in the desert."
Close the lid again, John Schmidt looked up at the white-bearded old man in front of him, and ordered without hesitation: "Order them to fire."
"You lied to me!"
Hearing John Schmidt's words, the white-bearded old man's complexion suddenly changed.
"I never promised you that I would let them go."
Reaching out and picking up the stone ghost face in the sarcophagus, John Schmidt turned to look at the old man in front of him, took out his pistol without hesitation, and pulled the trigger.
The next moment, the bullet shot through the old man's body.
However, the other party did not fall as he expected.
On the contrary, the old man looked down at the bullet hole in his body, then raised his head and opened his mouth to John Schmidt, revealing sharp fangs, and suddenly rushed towards him.
"What?!"
Seeing the old man who rushed towards him, John Schmidt's face suddenly showed a shocked expression.
bang bang bang --
Fortunately, although John Schmidt didn't have time to dodge, the vigilant German soldiers on the side fired without hesitation, knocking the rushing old man down to the ground.
Countless bullets hit the old man, but he still struggled and wanted to stand up again.
Frowning his brows, he asked the soldiers beside him to step forward to suppress the other side. John Schmidt, who escaped from death, did not have much angry expression on his face. He stepped forward to the front of the old man and stared at his mouth. The sharp fangs in the middle looked down at the stone ghost face in his hand again, suddenly grinned, and said with a smile: "It seems that I have found the function of this mask..."
……
Oslo, Norway.
Affected by the atmosphere of war, the atmosphere of the capital, which was still active in the past, has become low. The men and women on the streets are wearing black clothes, the brim of the hat is very low, and their faces are pale. and despair. The ***'s footsteps did not stop, the ***'s front continued to advance, and it would soon come to Oslo.
Driving to a quiet old castle, the white-haired old man in the car lowered his hat and raised his head to look at the dark castle in front of him, and subconsciously frowned.
In fact, with the news of the defeat at the front, he was already ready to flee from Norway. He sold his family's property to go to England.
However, the news from an old friend forced him to stop what he was doing.
"You're here too, old Edward."
With a brief honk, a black car drove past where the old man had stopped, and the window lowered, revealing an equally old face: "I thought you had escaped to England. "
"Actually, if Gale's news lasted for one more night, maybe I wouldn't be in Norway anymore." He opened his mouth and replied in his old voice, old Edward looked at the old guy in the opposite car and said Asked: "Why, do you know the purpose of this guy Gale calling us here?"
"Unclear."
Shaking his head, the visitor glanced at the old castle in front of him with his dim eyes, and replied with a blank expression: "Actually, as far as I know, Gale was about the same as us before. After leaving, even the property under his command was ready to be sold, but suddenly, for no reason, he stopped these actions..."
"Anyway, I hope Gal called us here for good things this time."
"I don't think anything good is going to happen under the circumstances at hand."
Hearing the words of old Edward, the old man on the opposite side poured cold water.
Old Edward couldn't help but sighed when he heard what the other party said. Indeed, as the other party said, under the current situation, what good things could happen.
……
The two people outside the castle walked into the castle one after the other, but they were immediately surprised by the scene inside the castle.
I saw that there were not a few familiar figures gathered in the castle.
Old Edward looked at the people in front of him and found that most of them were rich or high-class nobles who were famous in Oslo just like him.
"Old Edward, are you here too?"
At this moment, a chubby figure with a beard noticed Old Edward, and greeted him with a surprised expression on his face. "Didn't you all go to England?"
"Actually, I was supposed to be on my way to England." Pressing his hat, he answered the other's question. Old Edward's eyes swept across the people in the castle, and then he lowered his voice to face him. The chubby man asked, "What is all this about?"
"I don't know."
Faced with Old Edward's question, the slightly fat man shrugged: "When I came, there were already quite a few people here. Listening to their words, they were all invited by Old Gale."
"The invitation from old Gaelic?" After a moment of silence, old Edward continued to ask: "What about the old Gaelic?"
"Not yet."
Hearing the answer, old Edward's face showed a somewhat thoughtful look.
However, before he could figure out what it meant, he heard the slightly fat man beside him start to speak again: "Okay, old Gail, this guy is finally here."
"Wait a minute, this is old Gal?!"
Aware of the surprised tone of the man beside him, Old Edward immediately raised his head, and immediately saw a middle-aged man with black hair and a radiant expression appearing in the hall of the castle.
The man looks young, but there are many people in the castle who are acquainted with the old Gayle in the past, but they are quickly recognized. The middle-aged man in front of him is exactly the same as the old Gayle when he was young in the past. .
Suddenly, there was a commotion in the hall~IndoMTL.com~ Old Edward stared at the middle-aged man in front of him with his cloudy eyes. Among the people present, he had the closest relationship with Old Gale, so he also noticed that he was in front of him. This middle-aged man is probably Gale.
Just, why? !
Old Gail is obviously the same age as himself, and even when he was with the other party once before, he still looked old and wrinkled, why suddenly.
“Cough cough~”
Looking at the noisy scene in front of him, the middle-aged man didn't say anything. He just coughed a little. The noisy situation in front of him suddenly changed and it became quiet.
Everyone turned their attention to the middle-aged man in front of them, but in the end it was Old Edward who spoke, tremblingly asking, "Are you old Gail?"
"Of course." Facing old Edward's question, the middle-aged man nodded and admitted it almost without hesitation.
After receiving his reply, the hall that had been quiet in front of him immediately burst into a commotion again.
Before, although everyone had a lot of guesses, it was very shocking to really know the facts from the other party's mouth.
"What the **** is going on in all of this, why are you going back to your youth, Gale!"
In the crowd, a voice even older than the old Gail spoke up. He stared at Gail in front of him, and asked with a hoarse voice tremblingly.
Not only him, but everyone in the hall has the same doubts in their hearts.
For some purpose, most of the people Gale invited were old people who had entered the final stage of life just like him in the past. It is precisely because of the similarity of the stages that he is more aware of the inner thoughts of these people.
Glancing at the old faces in front of him, old Gail shouted to them in an almost fanatical tone:
"Because, I met hope."
