Ke-style law enforcement officers

Chapter 912 Imnar
The Beiyang Government.

This gender is quite unique even in the chaotic world of Kem Kingdom, and it's comparable to an armed helicopter.

Unfortunately, Milo's outfit was still too ordinary.

He was wearing a dark, heavy overcoat, completely lacking any sense of individuality.

In the present-day Kingdom of Kem, normal is equivalent to abnormal.

So, unsurprisingly, Milo, this heretic, was ostracized, and the crowd quickly distanced themselves from this strange fellow.

...

However, Milo had no intention of integrating into this group; he simply wanted to follow the traces of this awakened order to find the location of the abyss rift.

After many twists and turns, we arrived at a torn sculpture in the square.

This sculpture was originally erected in honor of Imnar.

It is not difficult to see that at some point in the past, the Kem people worshipped Imnar.

However, after the abyss rift descended, worship was distorted into incomprehensible hatred.

The old order and dogma have collapsed, and we have entered an era of dancing on graves.

Imnar is considered a terrifying being burdened with original sin, and all his guidance is meant to bind and imprison the minds and souls of the Kem people.

So the Kem people, after executing this "false god," carved his numerous crimes onto the broken remains of his sculpture.

For example, on a certain day of a certain month, a false god commands his followers to hang a priest who had molested a boy. This is a violation of free will, both for the priest and the boy.

Similar content abounds, densely carved on the surface of this tall sculpture, each stroke seemingly implying the hatred and disgust the Kem people felt towards Him.

...

……

Awakening to order.

This is definitely the cruelest thing the Abyss has done to Milo since that two-dimensional paper doll world.

The entire population of the Kingdom of Kem had become bizarre awakened beings, and the scene of this chaotic demonic rampage was far more terrifying than the sight of worshippers pouring out of the town of Ikham.

From a certain perspective, the current series of symptoms of the Kem can also be understood as the manifestations after the sanity value is cleared.

...

Milo traversed the town center.

He saw the ruins of many churches, and following these traces of destruction, he gradually approached the direction where the marks of the abyss rift were becoming deeper and deeper.

Suddenly, he saw a furtive man carrying two dirty loaves of bread rush out of an alleyway after the bustling procession in the center of the city square had crossed it. He ran wildly along the corner of the wall and finally plunged into another complicated alleyway.

The man's clothes were dirty and tattered, and he was only wearing one shoe, with the other foot bare. His hair was disheveled, and his beard was thick, making his head appear very bloated, but his limbs were extremely thin.

The reason Milo noticed the man was not because he was strange.

Rather, it's because his appearance is too "normal" in the current Kingdom of Kem.

...

This is a person who is not influenced by the will to awaken.

Milo followed quietly, carrying the flag of the Beiyang government.

After taking a few steps, he glanced at the five-striped flag in his hand with a puzzled look, rolled his eyes, casually tossed the flag aside, then enveloped himself in the Fear Matter and swaggered through the town of Kem.

He followed the dirty man deeper into the old alleyway.

Clutching the two loaves of bread, the man seemed distracted, wandering through the alleyways repeatedly, constantly looking back to see if anyone was following him.

After turning countless corners, the man finally arrived at the ruins of a burned-down monastery. With great effort, he lifted a charred, broken pillar, moved a gate under the pillar, and entered the monastery's cellar.

...

In the dark cellar, there were three pairs of eyes reflecting a clear, bright light.

Their eyes held a mixture of unease and fear, yet also a deep sense of anticipation. Only when they recognized the familiar figure entering the cellar did their fear completely dissipate.

...

These are three children, about seven or eight years old, two boys and one girl. They are all emaciated, wearing tattered clothes, and their hands and feet are covered with black ash left over from the burning of the monastery.

But their eyes were incredibly clear and bright, which meant that their souls were pure at that moment.

Are these three children the only ones in the entire Kingdom of Kem who have escaped the poison of awakened will?

...

Inside the cellar, neither the man nor the three children seemed to notice the presence of the Shadow.

The man painstakingly broke the two rock-hard loaves of bread he had brought back from outside into pieces, poured some water on top, and then distributed them to the three children.

Milo sat on the wooden tub beside him, staring intently at the disheveled man before him.

Until the other person handed Milo a piece of bread crumb that was soaking in water and sizzling.

Eyes facing each other.

Milo was stunned.

The man was stunned.

...

Milo recognized the man.

This is also Imnal. His bones and appearance are no different from the one nailed to the city gate. The difference is that the one in front of us is alive.

He also saw Milo, and he himself didn't even know why he could see Milo.

...

The next instant, Milo noticed that the man's eyes were being rapidly consumed by the dark substance, and his original rationality was disappearing madly.

Is this actually a sign that the SAN value has been cleared?

Milo was momentarily stunned.

Isn't this the kind of situation that only happens when those at the bottom face the shadows? But isn't Imnal already in a superior position?

Milo quickly reached out and put his hand on the other man's shoulder, stopping him from falling.

Along with that, the fear that surged wildly from the depths of the other's soul was instantly absorbed by Milo.

Finally, reason returned to the man's eyes. He was in a daze for a while before he came to his senses and looked at Milo with a look of astonishment.

...

In contrast, the three children's condition is much more stable.

Because they are clairvoyants, and their clairvoyance is quite high.

After Milo shed his disguise, they saw him, but the fear in their eyes remained superficial; their sanity remained unshaken.

Milo remained silent for a while, then reached out and took the piece of bread from Imnal, sat down casually among the three children, and began to eat it.

He didn't use the power of overwhelming fear; with just a simple gesture, he dispelled the anxiety of the three children.

...

……

After a while.

Above the ruins of the monastery.

Milo helped Imnal move the iron fence and pillars back to their original positions and pinned down the cellar door.

He glanced at the dazed man and finally couldn't help but ask, "So you are Imnar, or its fractal product?"
