Beauty Man: Infinite Possession

Chapter 189 Murals
"Ok?"

John Schmidt looked at the weird mask that appeared in the sarcophagus, with a clearly puzzled expression on his face.

The purpose of his coming to Tønsberg was for the Rubik's Cube, and he didn't expect that there were other things in the sarcophagus.

"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 can't expect to know anything from me."

Facing John Schmidt's questioning, a strange look flashed in the old man's eyes, and he replied coldly.

"I appreciate your tenacity, really." John Schmidt was not annoyed by this, his eyes scanned everything in the church and then stopped on a weird mural in front of him: "It's a pity , your resistance is meaningless."

Over the body of the white-bearded old man, John Schmidt came to the mural, looking up and down at the mural in front of him.

The content of the mural carvings is very complicated. It seems to be divided into three layers. At the top hangs a sculpture that looks like an island. There are many scenes of war carved in the middle. The bottom layer depicts a lot of evil scenes of hell.

John Schmidt frowned and stayed on the carved mural in front of him for a long time. He had a hunch in his heart that the mural in front of him seemed to hide a very important secret, but he hadn't discovered it yet.

A few minutes later, he still couldn't find the clues 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 at the subordinates behind him without hesitation.

Hearing his order, another officer who looked like a deputy came to John Schmidt with a torch.

"Sir."

Reaching out to take the torch in his deputy, John Schmidt leaned forward, illuminating a dim part of the mural in front of him.

In the light of the fire, what was shown was a certain scene in the war. A figure dressed like a priest held up the object in his hand, controlling a large number of figures to resist the attack from the opposite side.

John Schmidt glanced at the objects held by the priest in the mural, and then turned his head to look at the stone mask covering the face of the corpse in the sarcophagus. A cold smile appeared on his originally cold face: " It seems that there are other secrets hidden here besides Odin's treasure, the Cosmic Rubik's Cube."

"Tell me, what exactly is this mask?!"

Holding the torch, John Schmidt turned around and came to the white-bearded old man who had been guarding the place. His originally cold face finally changed.

"I told you I won't tell you anything."

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 his lips and said coldly, "Maybe you should think about other people in this town, and you must be among them." Friends, or maybe there are children living here, I don't think you want to see them die because of you?"

As John Schmidt's voice fell, the machine that smashed open the church door in front of him turned rapidly, turning the muzzle on the nearby houses.

Facing John Schmidt's threat, the old man's breathing suddenly became rapid, and he was silent for a while before replying: "Stone Ghost Mask, the name of this mask is Stone Ghost Mask."

"Stone ghost face?"

Frowning, he repeated the name of the mask silently, and John Schmidt then asked, "So what is the function of this mask?"

"..."

Facing John Schmidt's questioning, this time the white-bearded old man obviously showed a silent attitude, unwilling to answer any more.

However, he seems to have forgotten that sometimes silence also represents a kind of answer.

Sensing the appearance of the old man, John Schmidt showed a disdainful smile, and continued to ask: "Since you don't want to answer more questions about the mask, then I will ask you another question. Tell me, the universe Where is the Rubik's Cube?"

"This is not a power that mortals can control."

"You are not qualified to make a long speech in front of me. If you want the people in the small town to live, just tell me where it is."

Interrupting the content of the old man, John Schmidt threatened again.

John Schmidt's threat obviously worked. Although the old man didn't answer, he quietly looked behind him.

Noticing the other party's gaze, John Schmidt turned his head and immediately noticed another mural on the wall.

"Yuktra Hill."

Seeing the mural behind him, John Schmidt blurted out its name immediately.

Uktra Hill, also known as the World Tree, is a giant tree in Norse mythology. In Norse mythology, the branches of this giant tree constitute the whole world. Palace, Giant Continent and Hell.At the same time, according to the content of the myth, under the root of the tree there is the spring Hevagmir and a poisonous dragon "Nidhogg" that constantly gnaws on the root of the tree. Bite off this giant tree, and Ragnarok will come.

His eyes swept over the mural in front of him. Because of his previous experience, John Schmidt quickly discovered the weirdness of the mural in front of him. He reached out and pressed the eyes of the poisonous dragon "Nid Hogg" in the mural, and a box immediately followed. popped out of it.Opening the box, the faint blue light emitted by the Rubik's Cube instantly illuminated John Schmidt's cold face.

"With such a treasure, the head of state actually sent people to dig things in the desert."

After closing 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 expression of the old man with white beard changed suddenly.

"I never promised you that I would let them go."

Reaching out to pick up the stone ghost face in the sarcophagus, John Schmidt turned to look at the old man in front of him, pulled out his pistol without hesitation, and pulled the trigger.

In the next instant, the bullet pierced the old man's body.

However, the opponent did not fall as he expected.

On the contrary, the old man looked down at the bullet holes on his body, then raised his head and opened his mouth to John Schmidt, showing his sharp fangs, and suddenly rushed towards him.

"what?!"

Seeing the old man rushing towards him, John Schmidt suddenly showed a shocked expression on his face.

bang bang bang-

Fortunately, although John Schmidt had no time to dodge, the German soldiers who were vigilant at the side did not hesitate to shoot and shot the rushing old man to the ground.

Countless bullets hit the old man's body, but he was still struggling, wanting to stand up again.

Frowning, he let the soldiers beside him step forward to suppress him. John Schmidt, who escaped from death, did not have much anger on his face. Fang Fang looked down at the stone ghost mask in his hand again, grinned suddenly, and said with a smile: "It seems that I have found the function of this mask..."

……

Norway, Oslo.

Affected by the atmosphere of the war, the atmosphere in this formerly active capital has become gloomy. Men and women on the streets are all dressed in black, with the brim of their hats pressed down very low, and their faces are pale. Worries and despair about the future are revealed from time to time as they walk. The footsteps of the *** did not stop, the front of the *** continued to advance, and it would soon come to Oslo.

After driving to a quiet old castle, the white-haired old man in the car lowered the brim of his hat, looked up at the dark castle in front of him, and subconsciously frowned.

In fact, with the news of the defeat on the front line, he had already made preparations to flee from Norway.He sold his property and prepared to go to England.

However, the news from his old friend forced him to stop what he was doing.

"You're here too, old Edward."

Accompanied by a short horn, a black car drove past where the old man stopped, and when the window was lowered, an equally old face appeared: "I thought you had fled to England."

"In fact, if Gail's news is one day later, maybe I won'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 asked: "Why, do you know Gail's purpose for calling us here?"

"I don't know."

Shaking his head, the visitor glanced at the castle in front of him with his dim eyes, and replied with a blank expression: "Actually, as far as I know, Gail was about to leave just like us. Even the properties under him are ready to sell, but suddenly they don’t know why, but they stopped these actions..."

"Anyway, hopefully this time Gail called us over for a good cause."

"Under the circumstances at hand, I don't think anything good is going to happen."

Hearing what old Edward said, the old man on the opposite side poured cold water on him.

Hearing what the other party said, old Edward couldn't help but sighed. It was 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 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 like himself, well-known rich men or upper-class nobles in Oslo.

"Old Edward, are you here?"

At this time, a fat figure with a beard noticed old Edward, and he couldn't help but greeted him with a surprised expression on his face. "Haven't you already gone to England?"

"Actually, I was supposed to be on my way to England." Pressing down the brim of his hat and answering the other party's question, old Edward glanced at the people in the castle, then lowered his voice to the chubby man in front of him. "What's going on with all this?" the man asked.

"I'm not so sure either."

Facing old Edward's question, the fat man couldn't help shrugging his shoulders: "When I came, there were already quite a few people here. Listen to what they said, and Old Gail invited them to come."

"An invitation from Old Gaelic?" After a moment of silence, Old Edward continued to ask, "What about Old Gaelic?"

"Still not here."

Hearing the answer, old Edward's face showed a somewhat thoughtful expression.

However, before he could figure out what it meant, he heard the chubby man beside him start to speak again: "Okay, old Gail, he's finally here."

"Wait a minute, this is old Gale?!"

Sensing the surprised tone of the man beside him, Old Edward immediately looked up, and then saw a middle-aged man with black hair and a good look appearing in the hall of the castle.

The man looked young, but many people in the castle who were familiar with the old Gail in the past quickly recognized that the middle-aged man in front of him was exactly the same as the old Gail when he was young in the past, both in appearance and expression.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the hall.

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 Gail, so he also realized that the middle-aged man in front of him was probably Gail.

Just, why? !

Old Gail was obviously about the same age as him, and even when he was with him the first time before, he still had that old wrinkled face, why did he suddenly die?

"Cough cough~"

Looking at the noisy scene in front of him, the middle-aged man didn't say anything more, he just coughed a little, the noisy situation in front of him suddenly changed, and he became quiet.

Everyone turned their attention to the middle-aged man in front of them, and in the end it was old Edward who asked tremblingly, "Are you old Gail?"

"Of course." Facing old Edward's question, the middle-aged man nodded and admitted without hesitation.

After receiving his reply, the hall that had been quiet in front of him immediately erupted into noise again.

Before, although everyone had a lot of guesses, but knowing the facts from the other party's mouth is still very shocking.

"What the hell is going on with all this, why Gail you will regain your youth!"

In the crowd, a voice older than the old Gail in the past spoke. He stared at Gail in front of him, and asked tremblingly with his hoarse voice.

Not only him, everyone in the hall has the same doubts in their hearts.

Considering a certain purpose, most of the people Gail invited were old men who had entered the final stage of their lives just like him in the past.It is precisely because of the similar stages that he is more aware of the inner thoughts of these people.

Looking across the old faces in front of him, Old Gail shouted at them in an almost fanatical tone:
"Because, I have met hope."
