Chapter 613: Pollution (please vote for the super large chapter)
Sharp spikes with mechanical brilliance pierced the cheek of the brown-haired man in front of him at this moment. Then, countless spikes arched out from the man's body like hedgehogs, tearing his clothes.
Twisted his body.
Only then did Zhang Yusi realize that the back of the man who had been facing them was completely hollow, with twisted flesh and blood and broken mechanical fragments entangled in it.
A strong, physiological nausea surged into her heart. She was prepared to face the grotesque ruin monsters, but she was not prepared to face the twisted humans.
People are always full of fear of things that look like humans but are not humans.
At this moment, the snow-white sword light had collided with the sharp spikes on the man's body.
The sharp blade slid down the spikes that seemed to be a combination of machinery and flesh, and slashed directly, splitting the man's body diagonally into two.
This man's transformation has not yet been completed. It is foreseeable that he will be able to display a stronger form.
But He Ao had no interest in waiting for others to transform before attacking. The man's transformation speed was very fast, but it was obvious that his sword light was faster.
The two halves of the body that fell on the ground squirmed, and more spikes protruded from the body, seeming to be continuing the changes just now.
He Ao stared at this body.
Through this mutation, the strength inspired by this originally ordinary D-level transcendent has become close to C-level. This is still a situation where the mutation has not yet been completed.
Moreover, this man has broken away from some human characteristics and has some strange mutations. He Ao's splitting attack just now did not completely kill him.
The two halves of the body seemed to be squirming again.
He Ao mobilized his consciousness, glanced at it, and found the energy collection line on the man's body. He raised his hand and struck out with another sword.
The energy circuits in this mutated brown-haired man's body have two centers. These two centers do not belong to each other, just like two lives forming one body. After He Ao split him into two, these two centers
Separating the centers can also support the energy circuits of both bodies.
However, He Ao then followed up with this sword attack and smashed both energy gathering centers into pieces.
The remaining body of the brown-haired man twitched. His eyes widened, as if he had seen some beautiful fantasy. Blood overflowed from his mouth, and the last sound came from his hoarse throat.
"go home······"
He Ao put away his sword, took a step forward, squatted down, and reached out to wipe his eyelids.
Zhang Yusi stared at this scene blankly.
He Ao's decisiveness, speed, and ruthlessness deeply shocked her.
Although she was frightened, she had basic fighting skills. She was at such a close distance just now. If it were her, even if she had C-level strength, she knew that she would never be able to reach the level of He Ao.
Lan
Even if the movements of He Ao's hands were slower by half a minute, he would be successfully attacked by the mutated monster of the brown-haired man. No matter how strong He Ao was, he would be injured and the monster would be given a chance to become a complete body.
This half point of speed may be the difference between life and death on the battlefield.
And even after the attack was successful, He Ao almost immediately realized that the monster was not completely killed, and then carried out a last-ditch attack, killing it with a quick and accurate blow.
This kind of decisiveness and fighting qualities are something Zhang Yusi has never seen before.
This young minister looked more like a battle-hardened general who had experienced countless blood and fire than the veterans she had seen in the institute.
"feel better now?"
He Ao stood up and without looking back, he walked forward and asked casually.
He saw Zhang Yusi's uncomfortable state just now, which proved that he was a rookie with little combat experience.
However, this girl was able to control her discomfort in time during the battle and quickly adjust her condition, proving that she has strong acceptance and self-control abilities and can change quickly.
In fact, theoretically, Zhang Yusi would not encounter such a strong monster after entering the ruins.
Under normal circumstances, after entering the ruins, you will be assigned a relatively safe area. Although the death rate is still much higher than that in the main world, it will be within the range of the explorer.
As long as you keep a little patience, you can survive.
A large number of E-level and F-level extraordinary beings entered the ruins and were able to return alive.
In fact, in a sense, the ruins also belong to a novice village where you can quickly level up.
However, this situation is obviously not normal.
In Zhang Yusi's case, she was preparing for the easy novice difficulty, but ended up being thrown directly into the nightmare difficulty dungeon.
"Um."
Zhang Yusi nodded when she heard He Ao's question and followed He Ao.
"Learn to accept, adapt, and control your emotions. No matter what you see, you must first stay calm."
He Ao continued to move forward and gave a quick warning.
He Aoneng could briefly protect Zhang Yusi in a physical battle, but the most terrifying thing in this extraordinary world has never been a physical attack.
For Zhang Yusi, the only one who can save her is herself. She must quickly adapt to this environment and improve her mental resistance to have a chance to come back alive from here.
"OK."
Zhang Yusi followed He Ao, nodded in understanding, and wrote down what He Ao said.
"By the way, do you understand Tia Empire language?"
He Ao asked slowly.
"Know a little bit."
Zhang Yusi nodded, "You will need to use it when reading the paper on the Tia Empire." Lan
"Can you understand the exchange I just had with them?
He Ao continued to ask.
"I can understand roughly."
Zhang Yusi nodded.
"good."
He Ao nodded slightly, saving him the trouble of translation.
At this time, the two of them had already walked in front of the brown-haired man named Yasien.
"Can you tell me what just happened?"
He Ao looked at Yasien and asked softly in Theia Empire language.
The brown-haired man in front of him still had a look of shock in his eyes. His body was intact, his back was not hollowed out like the brown-haired man just now, and his body's energy circuit was quite stable.
"just······"
Yasien glanced at the brown-haired man's body with trembling eyes and spoke slowly.
The version of the story he told was similar to that of the brown-haired man, except that the person who opened the floodgate was bewitched by the sea anemone monster outside the door and turned into a brown-haired man, and the brown-haired man attacked him while opening the gate.
When he fought back, he injured the brown-haired man's back, and was also injured himself.
The brown-haired man ran back after being injured, and after he closed the gate to block the sea anemone monster, he also chased after him, preparing to alert He and Ao.
At the end, he trembled, stared at He Ao with wide eyes, and repeated, "Lord He Ao, I feel that something is wrong with this place. It is too dangerous, much more dangerous than the ruins we know..."
···”
He Ao calmly listened to the whole story, and then asked softly,
"Do you believe your story?"
"ah?"
Yasien was stunned.
Zhang Yusi, who was standing behind He Ao, was also stunned. She probably understood the exchange between He Ao and Yasien.
Although she didn't know whether what Yasien said was right or not, Yasien looked like a normal person. If he wanted to launch an attack, he would have launched an attack at such a close distance, and he had just warned him.
them.
But He Bu seems to be very sure that the story Asien told is 'wrong'.
What's the problem?
Zhang Yusi suddenly realized, sound! It’s a sound!
They claimed to have only gone out a hundred or two hundred meters. On the metal corridor, the entire space was so quiet that Zhang Yusi could even hear their footsteps as they left. But at such a close distance, if such a fierce battle broke out between them,
Why is there no sound at all?
"Is it not?"
Yasien looked at He Ao blankly, "Isn't it like this?" Lan
"ah!"
He suddenly covered his head, squatted on the ground, curled up together, and his whole face was twisted ferociously, as if he was suffering from some kind of severe pain from his soul.
Zhang Yusi subconsciously put her hand into her jacket.
At this time, He Ao gently raised his hand to stop her.
"He can still be saved."
He turned around and walked towards the metal door of the console that he had just opened.
Although Yasien's mental state is not right, the energy circuits in his body have remained stable overall, which proves that the distortion from the mind has not spread to the body.
This person should have a certain degree of mental resistance and resist the pollution that affects his spirit.
But whether he can wake up or not depends on him.
If he really had a change in the end, He Ao wouldn't mind giving him a ride.
Zhang Yusi glanced at Yasien on the ground, turned around, and quickly followed He Ao.
At this moment, He Ao had crouched down and stared at the words written on the inside of the metal door he had just opened.
Because he was too hasty just now, he didn't read this line carefully.
Only now do I have the opportunity to read this line of text written in blood.
The good news is that this line of text is still well preserved after I don’t know how many years.
The bad news is that it is written in the text of the first area.
There are six characters in this line, and He Ao only knows three of them.
[Don’t...look...]
Don't talk about what?
······
You suffer the loss of being uneducated.阑
"He Bu, are you reading this? Relic text?"
Zhang Yusi came over.
"do you know?"
He Ao looked back at her.
"Get to know each other a little bit,"
Zhang Yusi thought, "Our researcher is studying this, but he is weird. His results have not been published, and we can't see his research results. However, I accidentally provided him with some materials, so he shared some results with me.
Look, but I don’t know many of them.”
"Which of these words do you know?" Lan
He Ao asked quickly.
"The first one seems to be 'no', which means denial, the second word is not recognized, the third and fourth words seem to be the same word, 'believe', and the fifth word is 'zhi', thinking, wisdom, that wisdom
, I don’t recognize the sixth character.”
Zhang Yusi looked at the characters and said one by one thoughtfully, "The scholar who studied the characters of the ruins told me that the characters of the ruins are very similar to the characters of China. They are both hieroglyphics and the grammar is similar. When these sentences are connected,'
Don't...believe in wisdom...', what does this mean?"
He Ao knows "Don't" and "Xiang", and when combined, this sentence is, "Don't believe in wisdom..."
"Can you write down the words you know?"
He Ao turned his head and asked.
"Okay, but I only know about twenty or thirty words. It's just a coincidence this time." Lan
Zhang Yusi nodded and raised her arm. On her arm was fixed the arm-mounted microcomputer issued by the institute.
Everyone who enters the ruins will be equipped with one of these microcomputers. In fact, there are also combat uniforms, but this time it was too urgent, so we had to keep everything simple.
These microcomputers all have touch functions and can transmit over short distances.
Zhang Yusi quickly wrote out the relic characters he knew and the corresponding Chinese characters and sent them to He Ao.
He Ao received the text and glanced down. Although the number of these words Zhang Yusi learned was small, only a few overlapped with the ones He Ao had known before, which was equivalent to expanding He Ao's text library.
"Thanks."
He nodded and thanked Zhang Yusi.
"I wish I could help you."
Zhang Yusi waved her hands quickly.
At this time, He Ao looked at the machine in the center console.
Under the console, where the console was supposed to be, it seemed that it had been subjected to some kind of violent attack, and the console inside was completely destroyed.
He Ao picked up the fragments and took a look. There were obvious bullet holes and traces of laser burns.
It seems to be man-made.
He Ao glanced at the bloody words on the door, thoughtfully.
He turned around and found Zhang Yusi staring blankly at the huge glass wall.
"Hebu, the starry sky is changing."
she whispered.
He Ao raised his head and glanced at the starry sky, which was slightly different from before. In fact, if you look carefully, you can find that the endless stars seem to be 'flowing' in some way.
"We are the ones spinning."
He Ao stood up slowly, "This 'map' is moving. Perhaps we are in a spaceship floating in space."
Hearing this sentence, Zhang Yusi was stunned.
Although she had this conjecture in her mind, she didn't dare to believe it.
At this time, He Ao had already walked towards the entrance of the passage.
Yasien's painful roar has become weaker now, turning into a kind of tired and painful breathing.
When He Ao walked over, he was squatting and leaning against the wall, lowering his head and wiping the sweat from his forehead.
"I remembered?"
He Ao squatted not far in front of him and asked in a low voice.
"Yeah," Lan
Yasien nodded, his face still filled with some kind of pain, "Me and Corso, the brother who just turned into a monster, we just left here and entered the passage. In fact, we didn't go very far, maybe ten meters, maybe
A few dozen meters, then..."
He held his head, grunted, and said with difficulty again, "We came across a gate. The glass window of the gate showed that there was a corridor outside. We were about to find out if there was a switch for the gate nearby...
I saw Corso suddenly attack me desperately...
"I tried to fight back. During the fight back, I thought of your warning and woke up. It turned out that what I just experienced was all an illusion. I was actually cutting myself with a knife. At this time, I saw that Corso was also cutting himself, and I quickly ran over.
Want to stop him,
"But I fell into a hallucination again. I saw Corso being controlled, opening the gate, releasing the monster, and saw me fighting with Corso. Then I closed the gate and ran after Corso. In the process,
I lost the memory of just waking up from the hallucination.
"I didn't recall those memories..."
"Is there anything special about the hallucination?"
He Ao continued to ask.
"A special place..." Yasien covered his head, "When I was fighting Corso, I thought of my wife and family at home... Is this considered...
··”
"Um."
He Ao nodded and stood up, "Try to control your emotions and grasp the sober feeling you have now. Your mental strength is very good. Maybe you can handle it."
"Lord He Ao, these hallucinations... what are they?"
Asien asked in a low voice.
"Pollution," He Ao said calmly, "pollution from high-level beings."
There is also pollution in the main world, which occurs in strange events, but it is not as terrifying and serious.
Judging from He Ao's experience in the dungeon world, there is no skill in resisting pollution. Unless you have some special extraordinary props, you can only resist hard.
Yasien has a kind heart and knows how to be grateful. Even if he is stuck in an illusion, he will think of coming back to remind He Ao instead of launching a sneak attack like his companions.
So He Ao didn't mind giving him a hand.
While He Ao was talking, Zhang Yusi also walked up behind He Ao.
She looked at Yasien in front of her. The cautious and confident D-class extraordinary person just now was still in front of her.
She turned to look at He Ao, "He Ao, what should we do next?"
"Go and have a look at that gate." Lan
He Ao raised the bone sword, looked at the silent and dark passage, and said.
He has roughly finished exploring the rotunda, and it's time to check out the scene below.
Although this kind of mental pollution is very scary for ordinary extraordinary people, he is not too worried.
"Hebu, can I go?"
Zhang Yusi said slowly.
"Why?"
He Ao asked casually.
Zhang Yusi must have heard the conversation between He Ao and Ya Xian and knew that there was dangerous pollution there.
"I feel like it's not that simple here,"
Zhang Yusi also said truthfully, "You may not be able to avoid danger by staying in this hall, so I want to follow you and try to see your resistance. I don't want to be a burden to you. If the two of us only
If one can live, then I hope it is you. Your life is worth more than mine."
She looked up at He Ao, "If something happens to me, I might have to ask you to help me bring my last words back to my family."
He Ao glanced at her and walked towards the corridor,
"Follow me, control your emotions, stay calm, and if you have any questions, tell me immediately. If you really fall into a hallucination, empty your mind and imagine that you are an idiot."
This "I'm an idiot" method is a method taught by the FBI during training. The results vary from person to person, but it can indeed resist contamination to a certain extent.
Normally, extraordinary thinking people like Zhang Yusi are the most sensitive to pollution, but if they can persist in resisting, they will also be able to resist for the longest time.
"good!"
Zhang Yusi nodded and followed He Ao.
He Ao said no more, and the two of them walked deeper into the corridor.
The corridor was actually not very long. After walking no more than ten meters, the two of them saw the closed gate and the dark bloodstains in front of the gate.
