[Barry: Mr. Wells, I'm sorry to remind you of this, but this is our job, please cooperate.
Baldwin: In fact, we are helping you. Let's put it this way, Mr. Wells, to remove the suspicion of collaborating with the enemy.
Wells: Collaboration? I do not have! Don't you think I'm a coward when you see how scared I am now... If you saw what I saw, you might go crazy on the spot... It wasn't a freak show in a circus, although it was The thing was weirder than any freak; it wasn't a desolate scene in a cemetery, though that thing was more eerie than anything in the world.
Barry: Sir, we would like to believe you, please describe it.
Wells: That huge, hideous foreign object... It's hard to describe in words. There's a river down the hill, and that's where it crawls out of the dark river, and that sound... ah... my head hurts...
●Note: Jack Wells was pale and extremely agitated. He tried to hit the table with his head. The investigator gave him an aspirin.
Barry: Are you feeling better, sir? Can you continue to tell us
Wells: That thing... that thing was maybe a few hundred feet tall, and it was also scaly, sort of like a monster in relief on a stele, but it had a lot of arms, and as soon as it got out of the water, it jumped at the stele... I When I saw it, my head felt pain and fear as if it was sawed open. I might lose my mind at that time. How I escaped back to the boat after that, how I left, I can't remember, it seems that there was a big storm, there was a lot of thunder, and other noises...
Baldwin: Can you tell me more about what that monster looks like
Wells: As I said, I can't be specific... It's indescribable, I asked you to describe the darkness, can you describe it, darkness is darkness...
Barry: Then why do you think it is the legendary fish god Dagon of the Philistines
Wells: I still vaguely remember that storm. Apart from the thunder, there seemed to be shouts... That's why I think the corpses on the shore were sacrifices. Just like that, those bloody heretics...they're calling out a name like that, Dagon, Dagon...
Baldwin: Is that just your hallucination? When people are in a state of hunger and fear, hallucinations are likely to occur.
Wells: I… I'm not sure, but I've been waking up these days and I always seem to see it, it seems to follow me, it's around…
Barry: Mr. Wells, I can assure you that there are no sea monsters hundreds of feet tall near this hospital.
Wells: No, you don't get my point... It's in my head, those monsters are sucking my brains out, damn it... I need morphine, please give me morphine, just my The brain is not anesthetized, it will appear...
Baldwin: Sir, the doctor thinks what you really need is peace of mind.
Wells: You don't believe me, everyone thinks I'm just talking crazy... I hope, hope it's just my delirium... I hope...]
After reading this page, the restlessness in Gu Jun's heart became more and more intense, almost making his heart beat.
He believed in the existence of the storm Wells encountered. Because of the phantom he saw during the autopsy, there was that kind of storm, and there was also that kind of astonishing and fanatical cry of "Dagon". That must have been the voice of Dagon's admirers.
Embossed? He also thought of the relief slabs and statues worshiped by the Raliyah believers. Dagon and R'lyeh must be related.
But Dagon should not be equal to Cthulhu. According to the evil believers, the Lord of R'lyeh is the old ruler who has been sleeping for hundreds of millions of years, and Dagon was still active a hundred years ago.
Unlike the order that directly worships Cthulhu, there may be a "Dagon Mystery" that respects Dagon like the Philistines.
Maybe the Dagon Mysteries... are part of the Order of R'lyeh
His thoughts were in a mess, Gu Jun exhaled, looked at the phrase "the doctor thinks" on the document, and went to look at the separate medical report.
[San Francisco Jose Hospital, Department of Psychiatry
Physician: Dr. Anthony Finger, Date: 4-25-1920
Patient: Jack Wells, Gender: Male, Race: White, Age: 40, Height/Weight: 6'1"/168 lbs
Diagnosis: Shock shock, morphine addiction
Detailed report: The patient was a naval officer who was captured by the German army. This experience caused him mental trauma. The symptoms were high tension, long-term panic, insomnia, and delirium. Therefore, he was diagnosed with shell shock. During the course of treatment, the patient quickly became addicted to morphine, had suicidal tendencies, and needed more spiritual care.]
Looking at this old medical report, Gu Jun frowned slightly. Shell shock disease was called it in the past, but now it is called ptsd, post-traumatic stress disorder.
But is that really normal ptsd
Jack Wells is definitely not a cowardly person, but very tenacious. Otherwise, it would be impossible to escape after being captured, and survive while drifting at sea.
But such a tough guy lost his mind just by glancing at Dagon, that indescribable monster...
"Is it because of mental erosion?" The more Gu Jun thought about it, the more his heart sank. It's not uncommon for him to be traumatized when he sees a stressor, but they have seen a lot of aliens, such as ghouls, deep divers, and night hunters. Nightmare, even if he is affected for a while, he will not be mentally eroded.
Dagon, shouldn't it be an ordinary alien, "fish god"? Did the monster take part in the scourge? What is the relationship with the Afterlife Society and the Yiwen people
Gu Jun has a lot of questions, and always feels that something is about to come out, but he just can't grasp it, and it is almost impossible for him to figure out the direction...
He carefully read all the documents on the conference table, and looked through them again to make sure that there was nothing special about them. Citigroup's naval department didn't put much effort into it, so it closed the case on the basis that Wells was rescued after surviving on Zaragomez Island for a few years before going out to sea, suffering from shell shock and insane.
"Zaragomez Island." Gu Jun murmured the name of the place, maybe he needed to go to this place.
He sorted out his thoughts before opening the meeting video to communicate with the command center and express his thoughts. These things from Wells should be true. There are strange things in the sea area, and there may be an anomalous space leading to Dagon's lair. This strange disease may be inseparable from Dagon's power.
What he said was just an attitude and did not bring new breakthroughs. Relevant investigations had already been carried out earlier.
So the meeting ended quickly, and Gu Jun immediately went back to the dissection room. Although both temples were a little swollen and painful, let's continue the dissection.
Regardless of whether he obtained it or activated it at the time, his system was triggered on the bottom of Longkan. At that time, the spike on the bottom of the sea seemed to be engraved with many inscriptions and reliefs... But did the spike really exist? The Bureau of Astronomy later went to the sea area for deep dive exploration, and found nothing unusual.
What is the relationship between these things? Gu Jun changed into the dissecting suit again, put on rubber gloves, and walked towards the dissecting table.
This abyss mission must get the ten-star reward! Let's see what kind of answer this power will give him.
