Uncanny Valley - Contains high-quality horror stories, including urban weird novels, ghost thriller novels, horror comics, and ghost/spooky illustrations.

Stranger Things was serialized in Uncanny Valley magazine, and now a single book will be released soon.

Downey is already famous, but the manuscript fee he has earned in the past six months is only one or two thousand pounds, which is far less than the amount that Lawrence earns on assignments.

Now that Donnie's previous obsession is gone, he intends to close his pen from now on and find a way to embark on the path of transcendence.

Today, Donnie wants to say goodbye to the past six months.

Before heading out for a taxi to the magazine, Donnie searched Lawrence's bookshelves and, unsurprisingly, found the mechanism.

When a heavy tome is tilted down at an angle, the side shelves rotate to reveal the guns hidden behind it.

Instead of holding a gun, Downey opted for a silver-plated dagger and brought with him a vial of holy water with his firearm.

[Strange Thing: The lower holy water of the God of Knowledge.]

Message 1: Holy water from the Church of the God of Knowledge; Normal-grade oddities.

Message 2: With the ability to drive out evil, believers and non-believers can concentrate more by taking it orally and by smearing it.

Message 3: The effect is weak due to the low purity. 】

The driver was a black man, with a strange hairstyle, many pigtails, and a different color of metal hoop for his head, and he should have liked to talk, but he didn't actually communicate with Downey.

At noon---

A yellow-and-green vehicle with an unsettling roar drove down the road in Oakford, surrounded by few cars and sparsely populated pedestrians on both sides of the road, seemingly fleeing the summer heat.

Downey with the flame badge was even more uncomfortable, there was no air conditioning in the car in this era, and although the windows were open, the wind blowing in seemed to carry the heat.

The heat was drowsy, and the bumpy road surface and unquenchable thirst occasionally woke Donnie, and while half-asleep, Downey inadvertently swept into the rearview mirror of the car.

The dreadlocked driver was not wearing sunglasses, and for a moment now, the expression of the cold-spoken driver suddenly became very weird.

He seemed to be looking at himself and smirking, and at the same time, the dark eyes in his eyes instantly expanded, making his entire eyes pitch black, like an abyss staring at Donnie.

The moment they looked at each other, Donnie immediately came to his senses.

But Downey noticed that the driver was not looking in the rearview mirror, but was instead throwing his cigarette ash out of the window.

"What's wrong, sir?"

The driver glanced in the rearview mirror, probably seeing Donnie's stunned gaze, so he asked.

But his voice changed, low and hoarse, not like the voice of a middle-aged man, but like the voice of a dying old man.

"Your voice..."

"It's nothing, I'm just like that as soon as I smoke." The driver didn't care, and said casually, "Sir, we are taking a short road, a little bumpy, and we will arrive in a while." ”

The taxi drove into a sandy alley lined with red brick buildings and graffiti on the walls.

Donnie doesn't go to the magazine very often, and he keeps going to the magazine once every half a month, but he knows very well that this is not the way to the magazine.

Before the player template was obtained, including the twenty-odd years that Donnie's original body was alive, there had never been anything related to supernatural powers.

The death of the original Donnie has nothing to do with supernatural power.

But now that he has only been getting the player template for less than a day, Donnie has already been exposed to two transcendent events.

And it's likely that there was a connection with each other before.

The reason for this is because Downey smelled something similar to sulfur in the car.

The smell of sulfur is reminiscent of demons in hell, and only they carry this smell on their bodies.

Donnie held the silver-plated dagger strapped to his arm tightly in his hand and looked closely at the rearview mirror of the car, at this moment, a hazy and blurry hideous face was constantly appearing on the driver's face.

He seems to have been unable to suppress his desire to attack||hope, and also want to scare Donnie in this way.

And at this time, what this demon possessed in the body of others did not know was that his identity had been seen through by Donnie.

[Demon: Shadow Half-Demon - Carlos. Phili

Message 1: Half-human, half-demon; Lower-level ordinary transcendent beings (demons).

Message 2: Monsters formed by the power of ghostly demons between the virtual and the real, causing humans to demonize.

Message 3: The Shadow Half-Demon has no physical body, but can attach to and control the actions of people who are not strong-willed, and has a weak ability to see and manipulate minds; He has most of the weaknesses of demons, not very strong, weaker; But for you now, the challenge is more difficult. 】

Donnie now regrets that he should have brought Lawrence's gun, a bottle of holy water may not be able to kill this half-demon.

In addition, if you do do do it yourself, the silver-plated dagger is likely to hurt the driver who is being controlled.

The car couldn't go on forever, and Carlos, the half-demon, didn't have that patience.

Suddenly, a reddened human face appeared on the back of the black driver's head.

"Donnie Winchester, I know you, a poor creature protected by your brother, it's time for you to learn the truth about this world!"

As he spoke, the half-demon Carlos' fanged mouth spewed tiny sparks.

"Since the previous small actions failed to kill you, then, now I'll do it myself!"

Donnie thought that the demi-demon would attack him directly, but he didn't expect that he would control the hapless driver and drive the car directly into the nearby building.

The road is already narrow, and the taxi has already crashed into it!

A huge shock came, and although Donnie had prepared in advance to protect his body, he was still slightly injured, and the broken glass cut a deep wound on Donnie's arm.

As Donnie staggered out of the other side of the car, the half-demon controlling the driver was already glued to him.

"Your brother killed my daddy! When we hunted together, we used to be so happy!! ”

The driver's upper body has a strange image of red skin transformed by smoke, there are no horns on the head of the half-demon, no scales and claws on the body, but the complexion is redder than ordinary people, the eyes are much larger than normal people, and there are a pair of smaller eyes on the forehead, with hatred for Donnie and more importantly for Lawrence!

Donnie knew that the half-demon was not referring to his real father, but to the demon who had turned him into what he was now, and it was not difficult to hear from his words that Lawrence had destroyed that demon.

Because of this, this half-demon who has lost his guidance will find Lawrence's family by all means, and make Lawrence regret it by retaliating with a tooth for a tooth.

Donnie's current situation is very dangerous, the half-demon on the opposite side has a killing heart for himself, the violent impact just now has broken the unlucky driver's neck, but such a serious injury did not make him fall, still under the control of the half-demon, which shows that as long as he can't dismantle this person into pieces, he will keep attacking himself.

In this case, the player template only has 0.5 skill points, which cannot immediately form combat effectiveness, and Donnie will most likely not be able to defeat this half-demon.

Unable to beat does not mean giving up, Donnie pulled out the silver-plated dagger and pointed at the half-demon who was eyeing him, and said loudly: "Your name is Carlos, right?!" ”

The half-demon who was about to pounce was stunned, but he didn't expect Donnie to call out his real name.

"Lawrence once mentioned you to me, and he said that you are a despicable half-demon, and you watched your father be sent back to hell by Lawrence, but you did not dare to jump out and fight him!"

"Tell me out loud, is Lawrence right?"

While taunting the half-demon, Donnie quietly held the flask in his pocket.

The silver flask contains the holy water of the god of knowledge, and although it is of low purity, it can also teach the young half-demon a good lesson.

Not surprisingly, the half-demon Carlos was directly furious and said loudly: "Lawrence is a liar, he said that he was good for one-on-one, but he found a helper!" He took deception as glory—"

Before the half-demon Carlos could finish his words, a transparent liquid that made him very disgusted and fearful fell from the sky and threw it on Carlos's body accurately.

'Sneer...'

At the same time as the voice sounded, bursts of black mist also emerged from Carlos's body, and in an instant, Carlos's face and upper body were corroded in large pieces.
