Monster's Wraith

"This wasn't merely a matter of narrow-mindedness or a conflict of interests."

A doctor from the Bureau of Anomalous Beasts, who knew both Meng Chao and Lü Siya well, handed them several layer-by-layer brain scans.

On the cross-sectional images of brains resembling walnuts, besides the crisscrossing cerebral grooves, several clusters of light spots with remarkably similar shapes glimmered.

As the bio-current stimulation fed into the brains gradually increased, the light spots that fluttered like butterflies slowly converged, forming a ferocious pattern resembling a skull.

"This is..."

Meng Chao sucked in a sharp breath.

Not because the active regions in these patients' brains had happened to form the shape of skulls.

But because he found these patterns strangely familiar.

Sure enough, the doctor told them that there were ten layer-by-layer brain scans in total.

The first five were the latest scan results from the Transcendents who had just lost control during the melee.

The latter five came from humans bewitched by the demon god Abyss Demon Eye during the Imperial Grand Hotel Raid, as well as the vicious criminals who had willingly fallen and become Monster Puppets during the Nest City Rebellion.

"You mean Ma Hong and the others were also subjected to Mind Attacks and completely brainwashed by monsters?" Meng Chao was stunned.

The demon god Abyss Demon Eye was one of the most terrifying enemies he had ever encountered.

This Super Exotic Beast, which resembled a fusion of a gigantic eyeball and brain, possessed the horrifying ability to infinitely magnify the obsessions in people's hearts, upgrading "obsession" into a "Heart Demon."

As the saying went, "To discuss toxicity without discussing dosage is hooliganism."

Conversely, as long as the dosage was great enough, even the most normal thoughts could turn into venom that corroded the mind and drove people mad.
