With the plummeting SAN value, I can only work hard to watch the drama

Chapter 2 The Old One?
Shen Xiu's home is about two kilometers away from the company.

It usually takes at least half an hour to go home.

Today, under the temptation of the booklet, it only took less than 10 minutes.

boom!
Huhu
Shen Xiu hurried home, closed the door heavily, gasped for breath twice, didn't even bother to change her shoes, threw the bag on the sofa, and rushed straight into the bedroom.

"It's finally back."

Sitting on the bed, Shen Xiu wiped the sweat from her forehead, her eyes showed excitement, and her face was full of excitement.

The shadow of death has been hanging over him since he crossed over, and now there is a glimmer of life, which undoubtedly allows him to see the dawn of living.

Shen Xiu couldn't bear it any longer, and took out the booklet from her bosom.

The whole body of the booklet is black, and there is no text on the cover, only a pattern similar to an eye.

Surrounding the pattern, there are four strangely shaped crimson patterns, like stars arching the moon, surrounding the eye.

The four stripes and the eye pattern occupy the entire cover, against the background of the pure black book cover, it gives people a sense of mystery.

Shen Xiu subconsciously raised her hand to touch it, but didn't feel anything unusual, so she didn't pay attention.

I casually rolled up the booklet, and found that it only had a dozen pages, it wasn't very thick, and the size was only a little bigger than the palm of an adult.

The whole thing looks more like an instruction manual.

If it weren't for the fact that the cover of this thing was really bluffing, Shen Xiu would have wondered if Sister Wang had taken it wrong.

After a second pause, Shen Xiu turned to the first page, and there were only three sentences written on it.

"The old rulers are here!"

"The ruler of the old days is here!"

"The Old Ones will live forever!"

Shen Xiu's pupils were shocked suddenly, and she broke out in a cold sweat.

He already knew what the Old Ones were before he crossed over, and that was a type of god in the western Cthulhu mythology.

Or, it is more appropriate to describe it as an evil god.

Their existence is the greatest threat to everything in the world.

Shen Xiu never dreamed that the pamphlet given by Sister Wang was actually related to the old rulers.

"Wait, Old Ones? Could it be that the evil god sect is the old days sect? Sister Wang is one of them?"

Shen Xiu's body froze suddenly, recalling that Sister Wang was always a loner in the company and rarely interacted with other colleagues.

From the looks of it, she might really be a member of the evil god sect.

Doesn't this mean that this booklet is not a life-saving straw, but a sweet bait with a hook thrown out by the evil god sect.

咕咚
Shen Xiu swallowed a mouthful of saliva, lowered her hands heavily, and the excitement dissipated.

If he didn't know what the Old Ones are, maybe he would have continued to read it until he completely sank.

The last hope also burst like a bubble, and Shen Xiu's mind went blank.

patter
The booklet slid down Shen Xiu's weak palm and fell to the ground.

Shen Xiu woke up suddenly, turned her head slowly, and looked over, only deep despair remained in her eyes.

Ugh.
After a while, Shen Xiu sighed, closed her eyes, and fell heavily on the bed.

Since this was his destiny, he was not going to continue to resist, and simply took advantage of the last period of time to enjoy life.

After going through ups and downs, Shen Xiu was exhausted physically and mentally, and fell asleep after lying down for a while.

I don't know how long it took, the outside of the house was already pitch black, and the surroundings were silent, and the whole city of Lausanne fell into dead silence.

Suddenly, Shen Xiu on the bed opened her eyes without warning, and her two eyeballs protruded vigorously.

Even though the corners of the eyes have been stretched to the point of cracking, there is no sign of stopping.

Bloodshots crawled all over the whites of the eyes at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if covering a spider web.

The originally pitch-black pupils also shrank to the size of a pinprick.

At this time, that indescribable black shadow appeared in Shen Xiu's mind again.

Shen Xiu only felt that everything around her had been distorted, turning into faces of people in pain and despair, looking at him with venomous and crazy eyes.

Following the black shadow in his mind, he kept twisting.

Crazy ravings also appeared and passed into Shen Xiu's ears.

Shen Xiu desperately wanted to close her eyes and cover her ears.

But his body was out of control, and he could only curl up stiffly on the bed, shaking violently.

"It's over!"

Shen Xiu was extremely desperate.

Before the black shadow appeared, although it was equally painful, the body was still under control.

But now, let alone close your eyes and raise your hands, you can't even make a scream.

The situation is completely out of control!
Time passed little by little.

Shen Xiu's eyeballs were completely blood-colored, and dark red blood kept dripping from the eye sockets.

Reason is also gradually withdrawn.

Only the increasingly clear black shadow in his mind was still twisting.

If someone could see the black shadow at this moment, they would find that it turned out to be a tentacle made entirely of transparent worms.

Each worm also had a bloody eyeball embedded in it.

But it is exactly the same as Shen Xiu's eyeballs at the moment!
Suddenly, Shen Xiu found that he had been in front of the tentacle at some point, and there was an unfathomable force constantly driving him towards the tentacle.

No matter how he resisted, it was useless.

step.
two steps
Originally, there was a distance of less than ten meters, but Shen Xiu had already walked more than halfway in a short while.

What it means to be close to the tentacles is self-evident.

Seeing that she was getting closer and closer to the tentacles, Shen Xiu also became more frantic and wanted to stop.

But all efforts are in vain.

When Shen Xiu took another step, the tentacles made up of thousands of worms were already in front of her.

The tentacles stopped twisting, and the densely embedded eyeballs were all staring at Shen Xiu, as if they were waiting for something.

"no, do not want"

Shen Xiu yelled frantically from the bottom of her heart, but her arm didn't listen at all, she slowly raised it and stretched it out.

However, just when his fingers were about to touch a certain worm, a shrill scream sounded without warning.

"what!"

In the next second, the tentacles twisted crazily for no reason, and the worms that made up the tentacles exploded one by one.

At the same time, Shen Xiu also suddenly found that she had regained her mobility, so she quickly backed away with her hands and feet, away from the tentacles.

After a while, the worms were blown up.

The tentacles disappeared, and Shen Xiu, who was slumped on the ground, finally breathed a sigh of relief. She was about to stand up and look for a way out, but her eyes went dark.

By the time he regained clarity, he had already returned to the bed in the bedroom.

"I am back?!"

Looking at the familiar ceiling, Shen Xiu's eyes flashed the joy of being alive after the catastrophe.

Without even thinking about it, I sat up with my hands propped up, and picked up the booklet on the ground.

After going through the torture just now, even if he knew that this thing was probably the bait of the evil god sect, he couldn't care less about it.

"It's better to die than to live, do it."

Making up her mind, Shen Xiu opened the booklet again.

However, what he didn't expect was that the content inside was far from what he thought.

The pages that follow the title page do not describe the belief in the salvation of a certain Old One or that only the Old One comes to save the world.

Instead, it is simply introducing the origins of the old rulers and their families.

"Am I wrong?"

Shen Xiu frowned, and turned a few pages back.

Like the previous ones, these pages also introduce certain people from the past.

"I can't believe it"

Shen Xiu frowned even deeper, and turned to the last page in one breath.

He would like to see if this thing is really just an "encyclopedia of old days".

wow wow
As the last page was opened, Shen Xiu looked at it holding her breath.

Finally, there was no introduction to the old days, but a few lines of scarlet text.
