Chapter 767: Lost(1/2)
But after confirming the direction, Valentina was in trouble.
Logically speaking, the place with low fog concentration should be far away from the core of the forest. If she wants to escape, it is best to go along this direction. But the problem is that their team entered the gray fog forest for
Go to the core of the forest. If you want to meet Ke Lan and the others, walking deeper is the right choice.
Walking out is a departure from the way... It basically cuts off the possibility of rendezvous with others, not to mention that in this weird forest, even if you walk in a straight line, you may not be able to walk out smoothly.
When Ke Lan used "navigation" to lead everyone along the tortuous route to reach 35 kilometers deep, Valentina already understood this truth deeply.
She bit her lips hard, without hesitation, and manipulated the Blasphemer mecha to walk towards the direction with the highest concentration of fog.
...
...
I don't know how many hours ago.
“Three, two, one, retreat.”
After Ke Lan shouted this, he took a step back and his body disappeared in the thick fog.
But at the same time, he felt several huge forces coming from the safety rope, pulling the main rope from several different directions.
Ke Lan's face suddenly changed - he initially thought that biological weapons followed them into the gray fog, but soon he realized that these pulling forces came from the rest of the team.
"It's bad!"
Ke Lan only remembers to condense a space hand and catch Mo Jue, who was closest to him, to his side. Just when he was planning to catch someone, the safety rope suddenly loosened, and the power in other directions was in power.
All disappeared in an instant.
"What's going on?" Ke Lan looked at Mo Jue who was imprisoned by the closed hand of space. She saw her eyes were dull and her limbs were twisting desperately, as if she wanted to break free from the hand of space.
Ke Lan just tried to relax his hand in space, and Mo Jue immediately squeezed out of it and walked in one direction.
Ke Lan had no choice but to force her back again.
"Hey, Mo Jue! Can you hear me talking?" Ke Lan first patted her on the cheek, but the other party did not respond at all. He then gave the other party a big pussy.
Now Mo Jue stopped struggling because she was knocked fainted by Ke Lan.
With Ke Lan's enhancement level, even without Ze Luo's live armor and stomach blessing, this slap was enough to pull Mo Jue's head away from his neck. Just dizzy, this was the result of Ke Lan's mercy.
Ke Lan took a deep breath and dragged the safety rope that had lost its pulling power back.
As he expected, several secondary ropes connecting the others were cut off-the two ropes of Asano Showa and Thirty-san were very flat, and they were obviously cut with Nino alloy sword and flying blade. As for Yin Fan
The broken rope was relatively rough, and it should have been forced torn by him with the mechanical prosthesis.
It seems that the few of them should have fallen into a state of being as unconscious as Mo Jue.
As for why Ke Lan himself was sober, he didn't know the reason. Perhaps it was because Ze Luo was attached to him, or perhaps it was because his symbiosis constitution that allowed him to escape.
Ke Lan tried to wake Mo Jue, but he injected four potions to force people to wake up, and Mo Jue still didn't wake up... He looked at the fifth syringe in his hand, and finally
Still chose to give up.
The toxic side effects of this thing are quite large. If you beat too much, you will be killed.
It took almost two hours before Mo Jue woke up from his coma. At this time, her eyes had regained their spirits, but the whites of her eyes were covered with dense bloodshot, as if she had been in a row for several nights.
Sleeping the same way.
"Hiss... It hurts..." Mo Jue raised his hand and rubbed the back of his head naturally. It was where she had just been thrust into a big pocket by Ke Lan, "I actually tripped and hit the ground.
, It hurts so much."
She raised her head and looked at Ke Lan, and found that the latter's eyes were filled with solemnity. Then, she moved her gaze to the broken safety rope on the ground, and her face suddenly changed: "Where are the others?
Why did the safety rope break, where did they go?"
Although Ke Lan used Zeluo's power to dispel the surrounding fog, in order not to attract the attack of biological weapons, he only maintained the minimum clearance range - before others left the safety rope, Ke Lan had thought about it
He expanded the clearance range to the limit, but after noticing Mo Jue's state of loss of mind, he finally gave up this decision.
At that time, the "beast tide" formed by biological weapons had not yet faded, and thousands of monsters were only one step away from them. If the surrounding fog was cleared out at this time, it would instantly attract the attack of these biological weapons...
...Although Ke Lan is fully capable of protecting herself, the situation is very bad for others who are in a state of loss.
"Don't worry about this for now and answer my question." Ke Lan grabbed Mo Jue's wrist vigorously, "Do you know what happened to you just now?"
"Me? I just...I just stepped into the grey fog, and then I seemed to tripped by something under my feet and fell to the ground... The back of my head is still hurting to death..."
Mo Jue said as he stretched out his feet to grop the surrounding ground: "Strange... there are no stones on the ground nearby, why would I trip over?"
"Just?" Ke Lan stared at her and couldn't help but frown, "Are you sure it was just now?"
"Yes, it's just now." Mo Jue nodded in confusion and turned to anger, "You'd better stop me, what about the other people in the team? Where are they now? You know at this depth, go with other people.
What is the concept of scattering?"
"They have separated from me. You are the only one I have time to catch." Ke Lan said in a deep voice.
"Me? I just fell down just now."
"How long did you mean just now?"
"How much time? Probably...it's only less than a minute? Maybe...thirty or forty seconds? Aren't we just entering the thick fog? What are you...what do you want to ask?"
Thirty or forty seconds? The suspicion on Ke Lan's face became more and more intense... Could it be that Mo Jue had no impression of the fact that he had just fallen into a sleepwalking state and was knocked out by himself? Is there the power here that can modify people's memories
?
Ke Lan hasn't figured out why under the glacier remains, he has completely different memories from others... And in this forest, which is separated from the glacier remains, a similar plot is actually staged again
It's right.
From the perspective of Mo Jue and the rest of the team, everything that just happened was unimpressed, just like drinking and drinking "cut off"... but this situation is more natural than break off, and the person involved would not even feel the time
Two hours have passed, and there is not even a short sense of silence. In their opinion, they retreated into the fog with others in the last second, and stood in a place the next second
In the strange place, only the safety rope and the secondary rope that broke from the waist were left to illustrate what had just happened.
As for the intermediate process, it seems like it was removed by the editing software. They will not even remember that they had a sleepwalking unconscious state for a period of time.
The memories before and after are coherent, with almost no flaws or sense of incongruity. If Ke Lan encounters such a thing, he will most likely not expect that his memory has been tampered with, but will subconsciously think that he has triggered it by mistake.
A hidden teleportation device was instantly transmitted to another place.
No... there is still something that can be used as ironclad evidence for the missing part of the memory!
Ke Lan let go of Mo Jue's wrist and asked, "Do you still remember when we retreated into the gray fog?"
"This... I didn't pay attention, but I remember when I was attacked by those monsters, I glanced at the watch on my wrist when changing the magazine. It was 2:15 pm. Later, I wore equipment and blocked the monsters.
After about ten minutes, we should be between 2:25 and 2:30 when we retreat into the fog. Oh yes, it’s enough to just take a look at the watch now. It’s better to be more accurate when we estimate it backwards!
”
As Mo Jue said that, he began to twist the airtight valve on his wrist and dragged down the thick gloves.
"You should take a closer look at your performance. What time is it now." Ke Lan said to her with a serious expression.
Mo Jue stroked the sleeves of the protective suit upwards, then glanced at her watch - during the whole process, her expression did not change at all.
A chilling feeling suddenly climbed onto Ke Lan's back.
"Look, it's 2:32 now, so the time for us to retreat into the gray fog should be around 2:30." Mo Jue's words quickly widened Ke Lan's inner uneasiness - he grabbed Mo Jue with one hand
The arm pulled her closer to her, lowered her head and observed the watch carefully.
This is an Omega mechanical watch, the style is the very popular "Ranker Series" among top mercenaries and ruin hunters. This mechanical watch is famous for its stable and precise time travel and strong resistance to harsh environments. It is purely mechanical clockwork
Drive, the string can be fully loaded for 5-7 days, and the error will not exceed 10 seconds every 24 hours. Including the shell, all parts of the entire table are made of antimagnetic materials, even in a strong magnetic field environment.
, and will not be affected in any way.
At this moment, the time on Mo Jue's "Ranker" dial was exactly what she said, "2:32 pm."
The second hand was still beating, and the watch didn't look like it was malfunctioning.
"Look at my watch." Ke Lan also took off her protective clothing gloves and rolled up her sleeves.
The time displayed on his mechanical watch is "4:47 pm", which is more than two hours faster than Mojue's watch.
Ke Lan originally thought that this was the right time at this moment... but now, even he himself dared not be sure.
Maybe my memory was also removed for a small part, but I just didn't realize it.
It is already outrageous to tamper with human memory, but even the time of the mechanical watch carried by the person who tampered with memory can be modified. In addition to the power of "her", Ke Lan couldn't think of anything else to do for a moment.
To such a thing.
Zeluo can temporarily stagnate in time and space, and Ke Lan himself also has the ability to stop at time, but in time, the change is only the release of the skill's own perception of the flow rate of time - assuming that Ke Lan takes him in time,
Even if the time stop lasts for an hour, the time stop on his hand still shows the time before the time stop begins.
Not to mention that Mo Jue was not in that state of time stagnation just now. When she was in that state of sleepwalking, the watch on her wrist should not be stopped.
"Huh? Why is your watch at 4:47? Is it broken? Or have you forgotten to twist the clockwork before?" Mo Jue said in confusion.
"No, the problem is your watch." Ke Lan shook his head slowly, "You probably don't know that more than two hours have passed since we retreated to the gray fog. As soon as you entered the gray fog, a few of you
After that, I lost consciousness and wanted to break free from the safety rope like a walking corpse... Suddenly, Zeluo's ability was severely weakened by the thick fog, and I had only time to catch you."
To be continued...
