Looking at the distortion prompt, Xu Le knew something was wrong.
This is the headquarters of the Zion Progressives. Something can happen here. What is the concept? Is Zion about to be breached?
And the reminder just now also has a saying, ordinary humans and level 1 extraordinary people will become level 1 weird after death.
But if it exceeds this level, their indication is that distortion occurs.
The two people who died within a certain area were both above level 1.
Xu Le couldn't sense the position of the corpse. At most, he could sense the fluctuations of the anima. The person with excessive anima was moving quickly and was near them, but his movements were very irregular. Xu Le could not determine the accuracy of the other party.
Location.
"Xu Le, come and take a look below." Ai Li, who was standing at the window, suddenly said.
"Down below?" Xu Le quickly came to the window.
Only when he came here did he understand why they were unaware of the situation outside. The 8th floor of Zion Progress was a special closed environment.
The windows and walls here have very strong sound insulation effects. At this time, Zion's feet were already in chaos.
The police cars of the law enforcers and guards were chasing a kind of bluish-white monster. There were a lot of these monsters. While chasing the law enforcers, they were chasing and killing the few ordinary pedestrians.
Because the distance was too far and there was a window, Xu Le had no way to determine what kind of weird thing it was, or even whether it was weird or not.
Looking at the white thing from a distance, Xu Le always felt that it looked like a human being, but with a big head.
Their behavior...how should I put it, Xu Le felt weird anyway, like a police movie from his previous life.
But Xu Le had worked as a night watchman and got to know law enforcers. This would not happen in a normal pursuit of weird things. In short, the scene in front of him was very fake.
"Why do weird things suddenly appear in broad daylight? Today is only the 29th, and there are still at least 33 hours before the Kuroshio, and I feel like those law enforcers and weird people are acting out?"
Ai Li glanced at Xu Le and hesitated:
"Are you talking to me?"
Xu Le:……
"No, I'm talking to the air."
"What did you notice just now?"
"There is a dead person in the building, and a special anima target is moving quickly. Logically speaking, even if something happens down there, the nurses and law enforcers here should inform us why it suddenly disappeared.
Woolen cloth?"
Alley pondered for a moment.
"Did he die at a certain moment?"
"I don't think there's anything weird about rushing here and killing the nurses, leaving the two of us alone."
"You care about the little nurse?"
"I care about every life." Xu Le said sternly.
"Okay." Alley nodded.
"Let's go, go out and take a look first"
"good."
Alley was the first to go out. Although most of her conventional weapons had been taken away, the most important mace and earrings for her were still there, which would not affect her combat effectiveness too much.
She led the way, and Xu Le followed behind.
Now that the situation on the floor was unclear, Xu Le gave up the idea of summoning a few living corpses.
After all, the ancient sounds are so weird, and there are ordinary people in the building, such as those little nurses.
Many people cannot accept things like Guyin Duo’s living corpse.
The two of them came to the nurse's station. Some reports were still on the table. The pen was next to them, and half of the content on the reports was written.
"It seems that something suddenly went wrong or something went wrong while working. Did you find anything?"
After Xu Le made some analysis, he turned to look at Ai Li. Her detection ability was very powerful and could definitely be used at times like this.
But Alley has been frowning since he came here.
She suddenly turned her head and approached Xu Le and sniffed Xu Le's body.
"Have you been in heat before?"
Xu Le:?
The dog bullies others too much.
"What do you mean?"
"It's nothing, I just want to test whether there is something wrong with my nose." Ai Li said calmly.
"There's something wrong with your nose? You mean the smell is wrong?"
Xu Le responded quickly, and Ai Li also nodded.
"Yes, the smell here is wrong. Except for the smell of the two of us, there is no other people's smell left here, which is obviously abnormal.
After all, everyone has a unique smell, and even if they leave, their smell will stay here for a while."
Hearing what Ai Li said, Xu Le frowned slightly.
Has the smell been erased? Or is the situation here different from what he originally imagined?
"Keep walking, don't stop, at least explore the floors."
"good."
The two of them continued to move forward one after another. Not only was there no one there, but according to Alley, there was no smell left on the entire floor.
The smell is not just human body odor. At least under normal circumstances, the hospital area will have some smell of medicine, disinfectant, etc., but there is none of that, and it is full of the smell of death.
Continuing to move forward, Ai Li's footsteps suddenly stopped, and Xu Le tightened her grip on the black staff when she raised a hand.
"what happened?"
"There is a sound, inside the toilet, listen carefully."
The two of them approached the toilet slowly. Xu Le's hearing was not as strong as Alley's, but the floor was too quiet at this time.
As they got closer, Xu Le did hear some noises coming from the toilet.
Cuck, cuck, cack! Click!
This feeling is like a dog chewing a bone.
But the question now is, is the thing inside a dog? What bone is it chewing on?
"The smell of blood, keep some distance from me."
"good."
Ai Li had silently held the mace in her hand. She walked calmly to the toilet, while Xu Le turned the black stick into a black gun and followed her.
Alley suddenly swung his mace in front of a toilet cubicle door, and the impact of the iron rod shattered the door instantly.
A bloody dog with no hair on its body and a large number of blood vessels appeared in their field of vision.
After the door was broken down, it immediately turned and rushed towards Alley, but was knocked to the ground by Alley with a stick.
While screaming, a large amount of blood spurted out from his body.
Ai Li's reaction was extremely fast. She immediately grabbed Xu Le and moved back, preventing the blood from spreading on their bodies.
Xu Le didn't hesitate, he just raised his gun and shot.
Bang bang bang!
The bullet fired from the gun killed the bloody dog with a headshot.
The fishy smell filled the air instantly, and Ai Li grabbed Xu Le and took a few steps back.
After arriving at a safer area, Xu Lecai couldn't help but ask:
"Is there something wrong with that blood?"
"I'm not sure. I just feel that the dog's blood is too pungent. It's rancid but full of vitality, so I feel the need to avoid it."
Rotten and full of vitality blood... Xu Le nodded slightly.
The two returned to the toilet, and what the bloody dog had eaten was completely exposed in front of them.
Wearing blue clothes, waterproof boots and gloves, it looks like they are cleaning staff.
Her previous appearance could not be seen from the corpse. She could only be confirmed to be an older woman from her figure and slightly gray hair.
Needless to say about the gnawing sound just now.
"Let me dispose of the body."
"good."
Golden thunder and lightning flowed from Xu Le's hands. Without kerosene, his ability could barely handle the corpse.
While Xu Le was cleaning up the body, Alley checked several other toilet stalls. After confirming that there was no threat, she walked to the edge of the sink and prepared to clean the blood stains on the mace.
She turned the faucet...
Squeak!
It was like something was slipping. The faucet turned a few times, but no water came out.
Broken? Alley frowned slightly.
She walked to another faucet, and after opening it, the result was exactly the same as before.
The faucet is slippery and no water comes out.
"What's wrong?"
After handling the body, Xu Le noticed something was wrong with Ai Li. When he came over to ask, Ai Li shook his head:
"Nothing, it's just that there's no water in the faucet."
"No water?"
Xu Le hesitated for a moment, then he also turned the faucet, but this time water came out.
"Yes, I have."
Ai Li looked at Xu Le in confusion. From such a close distance, Xu Le naturally felt her gaze.
"You mean, it wasn't there when you tightened it just now?"
"That's what it means."
The sound of gurgling water continued. Xu Le wanted to turn off the water, but after turning the faucet, the same situation as Alley occurred.
It's slippery and can't be closed.
What's going on? Xu Le looked up at the mirror in front of the pool, only to find a charred corpse standing behind him.
At such a close distance and the situation was so sudden, even if there was a tree of souls to absorb the energy, he couldn't help but feel a sudden rush in his heart.
"grass!"
Alley here had already taken action. She kicked the scorched corpse on the waist. The huge force of her foot allowed her to almost break the scorched corpse in half.
Such a weak body? It doesn't look like a monster possessing it at all. Even a level 1 living zombie would not be so fragile.
Xu Le took another look at the charred corpse. This charred corpse was the one he had just dealt with. The cleaning clothes on her body still had traces of being burned by lightning.
What makes Xu Le strange is, if the corpse is not deformed, how can she stand up? Is there some kind of ability to control the corpse?
As if he could see Xu Le's lingering fear, Ai Li hesitated and walked to the side of the body.
He picked up the mace and smashed the charred corpse into two pieces, then broke her legs.
The attack was so ruthless that Xu Le's eyelids twitched when he saw it.
But Ai Li didn't take it seriously. She once said that she could fight under any conditions, and this was no joke.
If something is discovered that affects the members, it is also one of her responsibilities to eliminate these effects during the battle.
This is what she has been trained to do since she was a child.
"Okay, if she can stand up again like this, then it's not a problem I can handle."
Xu Le pondered for a while, but still couldn't figure out how the corpse stood up. Judging from the current situation, many things on this floor cannot be explained.
"Let's go first, go downstairs to see what those white weirdness are, and confirm the current environment."
"good."
After disposing of the corpse of the cleaning staff, Xu Le's corpse transformation reminder was missing.
But the reminders from Guyinduo's son still continued.
【Affected by the son of Guyin Duo, this area is undergoing unpredictable changes.】
"Have the bodies here been cleaned up by that person?"
Xu Le is not sure which son of Gu Yin Duo is interfering here, and whether the blood dog just now is related to the son of Gu Yin Duo.
Alley acted so quickly that he didn't even check the specific attributes of the blood dog.
Arriving in front of the elevator, Xu Le looked at the elevator and hesitated slightly.
"What's wrong?" Alley looked at him.
"Right now we don't know the specific situation inside the building, and we don't know whether it's really chaotic outside or what the extent of the chaos is.
When a lot of information is not certain, I don’t think you should take the elevator. The risk is too great. Take the stairs instead.”
"Reasonable."
Both of them were very vigilant, so Xu Le's proposal hit it off immediately.
The 8th floor is not very high, so it doesn’t take long to walk down.
Walking in the stairwell, the two of them moved very quickly. Facing the light of the stairwell, they quickly went downstairs.
But not long after, Alley's footsteps suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?"
"We have gone down to the 6th floor."
"Hmm? Then there should be another layer."
Ai Li shook her head slightly. She stood on the handrail of the stairs and looked down.
"Looking from here, there should be more than one floor."
Xu Le also came to the handrail. When he looked down, he discovered that there were still many stairs below.
His eyesight was pretty good, and the lights in the stairwell were very bright, so he could see clearly. The remaining floors were still 6-7.
And they should be between the 7th and 8th floors. In other words, if the basement of the Zion Progressive Guild Building is not particularly outrageous, then they should be spinning in circles.
Are ghosts hitting the wall?
"Do Zion Progressives have a deep basement? After all, there are so many researchers here, and they must all like to play with some weird things.
Are there any places like forbidden laboratories? I heard that such places are usually in the basement."
Xu Le couldn't help but look at Ai Li, hoping that Gouzi could give him an answer.
But when Ai Li heard what he said, he had no other expression except the corner of his mouth twitching. Xu Le, this guy, always used official business to ask about private matters...
"There are indeed taboo experiments, but for the sake of safety they are placed in the upper area, that is, above our heads."
"That's it!"
Xu Le pinched his chin and made a thinking expression.
"What should we do now? Do we want to go back?" Alley asked.
For warriors, situations like ghosts hitting walls are indeed very difficult to handle. In short, warriors are not very good at handling puzzle-solving situations.
However, Xu Le is not too worried. The so-called ghost wall can actually be cracked easily when there are two people present.
As long as one person stands still and the other person goes down, it will be fine.
Unless there is really the power to distort space, this method is not difficult for a warlock to crack.
"There's no need for that, the technique - Forbidden Summoning Formation."
With a bang, a living corpse appeared.
It walked downstairs with firm steps. When the first living corpse went downstairs, the second living corpse had been summoned by Xu Le.
Soon, one living corpse after another was heading downstairs like a train.
Xu Le summoned 10 in total, which was a number that he could control stably at his current level. Although he could have more, it would place too much mental burden on him.
As the 10 living corpses opened their way and headed downstairs, the sticky feeling in the air gradually became stronger.
This feeling is so obvious that even Ai Li, a warrior, can clearly detect it:
"How is this going?"
"I can't hold it any longer, the illusion is going to explode." Xu Le said matter-of-factly.
The effect of this illusion requires one more calculation for each additional person. If there is not a complete enough spell formation, or if there is a formation but it is not perfect enough.
As the number of individuals within the illusion increases, the mental burden on the magicians who create illusions will also increase geometrically.
10 living corpses that move stably, plus two living people, Xu Le and Ai Li, are enough to bring down this temporary illusion.
"You mean, this is man-made?"
"The illusion is man-made, but the dead are not. Those people are really dead."
No matter how powerful the warlock is, it is impossible for him to directly interfere with Xu Le's vision of the ancient sounds, so people are really dead here, and more than one person has died.
Zizzi!
As the sense of stagnation in space disappeared, the living corpse at the bottom had hit the wall.
"Ah! Living corpses, there are living corpses here!"
Soon, Xu Le heard screaming downstairs. It seemed that Xu Le's living corpse had been discovered.
Ah, she's a little nurse.
Without saying a word, Xu Le rushed down with a knife, and stabbed his own living corpse.
Poof!
The corpse's head flew up and rolled to the ground.
"The living corpse has been killed by me, it's okay."
While Xu Le was talking, he patted the little nurse on the back to express comfort.
Ai Li, who came down from upstairs, twitched at the corner of his mouth. Xu Le's acting was too exaggerated.
"Thank you Mr. Xu Le, where is the body?"
"The corpse will be handled by guards." Xu Le said, having already been exposed to the summons of the living corpse.
"Is that so?"
At this time, the little nurse was still frightened. She was holding some medicine bottles in her hand, and it seemed that she wanted to go upstairs.
"Ms. Nurse, why don't you take the elevator?"
"Elevator? Oh, you mean the elevator, right? That one is broken and is being repaired."
"I see, I just saw the entire 8th floor..." Xu Le hesitated.
"What happened on the 8th floor?" the little nurse looked confused.
"Nothing, let's go back to the 8th floor together." Xu Le shook his head and gave up the story.
"Okay." Someone followed, and the little nurse became more courageous.
Xu Le winked at Alley, and the two followed the little nurse back to the 8th floor.
When they returned to the 8th floor, the two of them suddenly found that everything had returned to the same state as before.
Alley opened the door of the utility room, took out a bottle of disinfectant water, opened it, smelled it, and then said:
"Everything is back to normal and the smell is back."
Xu Le nodded. There were very few people in the ward on the 8th floor. After all, this was the isolation ward of Gu Yin Duo. How could there be so many polluters among Gu Yin Duo's descendants?
Generally, even if there are, they will not be scolded on the spot by the law enforcers, but they will be secretly hidden and studied by the warlocks. There are very few people who actually live here.
The three young nurses at the nurse station were all there, which made Xu Le feel a little more comfortable.
These little nurses are ordinary people. It would be too bad if they died here for no reason.
But as soon as Xu Le came up with this idea, he saw the prompt again.
【Affected by the son of Guyin Duo, this area is undergoing unpredictable changes.】
The time at this time had already exceeded 10 minutes, so Xu Le didn't know whether or where the previous corpse transformations had occurred.
There was nothing unusual about the current environment on the 8th floor. Only the murmur of ancient sounds that continued to beat reminded him that the situation just now was not an illusion.
"It should have been the warlock's special interference ability just now. Now that the ability has been cracked, everything has returned to normal.
But there is still something different, let’s go to the toilet and take a look.”
"good."
The two of them quickly came to the toilet. Although it was strange for the two of them to enter the men's toilet together, at least that was what the guard on duty thought so.
After coming to the toilet, Xu Le found that the door that had been destroyed by Alley had been restored to its original state.
Everything before was as if it had never happened.
The smell of feces in the toilet filled Xu Le's nostrils. He glanced at Ai Li secretly. Even he couldn't stand the strong smell. He didn't know how Ai Li managed to remain so calm.
