With the bang of a gunshot, the figure in blue uniform fell to the ground, blood slowly spread from under his body, the body with a broken heart twitched violently for a few times, and then gradually stopped moving.
This scene is like a complete murder, and even the twitching of the body after it falls seems to be constantly strengthening the element of "murder" and strengthening Heidi's belief that she just "killed an ordinary person"
impression.
However, Heidi just watched all this with an expressionless face. While the corpse fell to the ground and twitched, she listened attentively to all the disturbances around her.
Under normal circumstances, the sound of the gunfire just now was enough to spread throughout the entire building. The security personnel and church guards stationed in this facility should have been alarmed by this time, but in fact, after the gunshots were heard, there was only a sound in the corridor.
Silence, no one appeared at all, it was as if... this facility had been empty for a long time.
The amethyst pendant hanging on her chest was still emitting a slight amount of heat. Some kind of blessing that did not belong to the four gods, but was extremely effective, was constantly keeping Heidi's mind clear.
This pendant is not the original one - the pendant that her father first brought back from that "antique shop" has been withered and broken in the previous black sun incident. The pendant she is wearing now is the antique shop owner's first pendant.
A second "gift" to my father.
As it turns out, it still has the same incredible power as the first pendant.
After a moment of silence, Heidi breathed softly. She held the revolver she had just taken out from the hidden compartment of the suitcase in one hand, put the suitcase on the ground with the other hand, and took out a long golden awl from it (
This is one of her medical tools), while still staring at the body lying on the ground: "The acting is good, but can I stop acting?"
The "corpse" had already stopped twitching. After Heidi finished speaking, he finally moved, and then climbed up as if nothing happened. He held the horrific gunshot wound on his chest and turned to look at the spirit that had just "killed" him.
Doctor: "I'm curious, when did you notice it?"
Heidi held a gun in one hand and a golden awl in the other. She looked at the "dream intruder" in front of her with alertness and calmness: "There is only one bed in this ward - so, when there is an empty bed lying next to the hospital bed,
'When I got there, the confrontation started."
"It's really interesting... very few people can still notice this kind of deviation after falling into a dream, at least not so quickly," the intruder said calmly, and in the air beside him, there was some kind of dark and hazy shadow.
Or the smoke seems to be gradually emerging and condensing into tangible existence, "including those who are professionally trained so-called 'psychiatrists.'"
Heidi frowned and looked at the shadow of smoke appearing next to the other party. Finally, she could distinguish the outline of the thing. Her eyes changed instantly: "Smoke jellyfish... Annihilation cultist?"
The moment she recognized the shadow, the originally hazy outline of the thing immediately became clear. A "jellyfish" that seemed to be condensed from smoke and dust was floating in the air and connected to it by a dark chain.
On the skull of the intruder - this dangerous demonic creature is expanding, shrinking and squirming, with countless tentacle-like structures spreading out on its surface, and it has spread to places very close to Heidi at some point!
A huge sense of crisis instantly exploded in her heart. Heidi sensed the erosion and destruction taking place in her spiritual world - the enemy's attack was secret and insidious and had already happened. If her own inspiration hadn't suddenly warned her, she would have been in this dream.
I recognized the outline of the smoke jellyfish. I am afraid that by the time I react, I will have been parasitized by the spirit of the smoke jellyfish!
The next moment, she didn't hesitate at all. She directly raised the sharp golden awl in her hand and stabbed it hard into her temple without any hesitation!
The next second, a loud thunder-like sound exploded in her mind, and everything in her field of vision began to tremble and shake violently. The ward that seemed normal at first began to become deformed and distorted, and the walls melted like wax.
The disgusting truth inside was revealed, as if it were withered flesh and blood. The floor looked like dry scorched earth, filled with terrifying ravines and unclean crawling things. The smoke jellyfish with countless tentacles extending out seemed to have been severely injured, and it suddenly let out a
There was a harsh whistling sound, and all the tentacles contracted violently.
Immediately afterwards, the Annihilation cultists disguised as Government Affairs Department personnel and the symbiotic smoke jellyfish disappeared from Heidi's eyes like mist.
However, Heidi did not relax at all. She still held the pistol and the golden awl tightly. She was alert to any violation in the environment and quickly checked her mental state, because she knew that the dream invader had not been defeated.
He didn't even leave at all.
This dream shows no signs of breaking up and dissipating.
The knowledge I learned while studying at the School of Truth came to mind little by little.
Smoke jellyfish...a branch of the deep demons, with a shapeless body like smoke and a variety of dangerous and strange extraordinary powers. It is especially good at attacking the victim's spirit and perception. Summoners who live in symbiosis with this kind of demon can use mental damage
A kind of magic spell, or directly extract the energy of the deep demon and send it out in the form of corrosive missiles...
Compared with most ghost demons, the smoke jellyfish's body is not strong, but their strange and extraordinary power makes them one of the most dangerous ghost demons - in many cases, you have no time to attack their fragile body.
They have missed the opportunity to resist due to mental trauma, and those cunning cultists who coexist with the smoke jellyfish will consciously amplify the "characteristics" of the deep demon, making it even more troublesome.
The heat emitted by the amethyst pendant on her chest became more and more obvious. Heidi could feel that some malicious "ingredients" in this dream were still trying to erode and destroy her spirit, but the power released by the pendant was protecting her.
, and continued to dismantle those intrusions while maintaining her sobriety.
In this stalemate between erosion and protection, a new sense of crisis suddenly arises in my heart.
Heidi immediately followed this feeling and raised her pistol. However, the moment she took aim, the figure emerging from the air made her stop.
Morris appeared there, looking here in astonishment.
"Heidi?" the familiar figure said in confusion and concern, "What's going on...are you trapped in a nightmare?!"
"Yes," Heidi nodded, pulled the trigger without hesitation, and said while firing, "I don't know what happened. An Annihilation cultist interfered with my hypnotherapy, but I remember that even the smoke jellyfish
, and does not have the ability to control the dream realm."
The gun flame lit up and exploded, and the father's figure was shot. There was an incredible expression on his face, and then he shook twice and fell to the sky.
But the next second, another figure appeared at the place where the father fell - a gentle old woman with a concerned expression looking towards this side, it was the mother.
"Heidi, what are you doing? Why are you..."
"I'm treating a patient." Heidi pulled the trigger and said casually.
The mother's figure fell, but then, a particularly tall figure appeared in the field of vision again - this time, the figure only had time to condense some of Vanna's outline, and Heidi had already fired one step ahead.
Another phantom fell.
"You are too careless, Mr. Intruder," Heidi shook her head, "How could such a simple trick work - let alone Fanna, if it were really her, she would just casually shoot me.
Pinch the bullet, roll it into a ball and throw it back..."
Those figures that kept appearing finally ended.
An angry and deep voice suddenly came from an unknown direction: "Why aren't you affected?"
"I already know that this is a twisted dream, and of course I won't believe these phantoms you created," Heidi said calmly, "Of course, I guess that's not what surprises you - you are surprised why my mind has not wavered.
After all, even if you know in advance that this is all an illusion, if an ordinary person keeps seeing familiar faces die in front of him and does it himself, this process will accumulate huge mental pressure and eventually impact the defense line of reason.
, it has nothing to do with being 'sober'...but unfortunately, I have had some training."
As she spoke, the psychiatrist lady slowly raised the muzzle of the gun and pressed it against her temple.
"Do you know the value of a full scholarship plus a master's degree at the College of Truth, Mr. Intruder——"
"boom!"
The trigger was pulled, the gunshot exploded, and Heidi shot herself through the head without hesitation - and as her figure shook, another Heidi walked out from beside her in an instant!
Bang bang bang, continuous gunshots rang out, and the revolver that could only hold six rounds of bullets roared continuously, as if the bullets were endless. Heidi repeatedly pulled the trigger at her temple, one "personality clone" after another.
He began to walk out from beside her, holding a golden awl, and walked towards every corner of the ward that had been twisted into a nightmare, towards the door and the corridor outside.
"You shouldn't mess with me in my professional field, Mr. Intruder," Heidi slowly raised her head and pulled the trigger on her head for the last time, "You shouldn't cause trouble when I'm treating patients.
——I really, really, really don’t like working overtime!”
Dozens of personality clones quickly dispersed throughout this alienated "medical facility" and began to search for any suspicious clues in the invaded dream, looking for possible "invasion paths" and "hideouts" on the edge of the dream.
The "cognitive void" of "earth".
However, as the personality clone moved, Heidi suddenly frowned.
