The noise outside did not disappear because of the appearance of these ability users. Instead, it became louder and louder.
The shouts and laughter of the crowd outside the window were like huge waves on the sea from time to time, mixed with the sound of explosions, gunfire, the sound of broken glass, and some people crying and cursing. The sound alone created a chaotic scene.
Correspondingly, there was an eerie silence in the hotel room.
Lu Xin sat quietly on the sofa, smoking half of a cigarette. The ash was long and not flicked out.
He seemed to be distracted and didn't pay attention to the chaos outside.
Instead, he had a ponytail, his face was uncertain, and he looked at Lu Xin worriedly.
"I told you, there won't be a problem, right?"
Lu Xin After a while, she looked up at him with a smile on her face and said, "Can you tell me what you want to say?"
Ponytail glanced deeply at Lu Xin, as if relying on the confidence on his face, he could tell how powerful he was.
However, in the end, he could not see anything from that calm face. Until this moment, he still felt that the man sitting calmly in front of him with a cigarette between his arms seemed to be not the same person at all as the one he saw in the abyss...
"I am the captain of the first team of Changhu City Special Pollution Cleanup, codenamed Black Jack. I have been ordered to come to support Black Marsh City."
Feeling that time was running out, the man with the ponytail spoke quickly and revealed his identity.
"Changhu City, Black Jack?"
Han Bing had just woken up from the nightmare in the abyss. He was obviously a little surprised when he heard this sentence.
Lu Xin turned to look at Han Bing and said, "Do you know him?"
Han Bing nodded and stood up quickly.
Her legs were a little weak, so she thumped them twice, then trotted to the bedside, picked up her laptop, clicked a few times, and whispered, "Black Jack is one of the powerful ability users in our alliance recorded in Qinggang in the early years. In the information published by Changhu City, his ability is rated as A level, but in fact, all major High Wall City intelligence officers think he is S level..."
"S-level?"
Lu Xin frowned, looked Black Jack up and down, and shook his head slightly.
He didn't seem to understand why an S-class ability user acted as the opponent's puppet as soon as he appeared on the scene?
"It's all my fault."
Black Jack sat quietly on the carpet, with some shame appearing on his face.
He closed his eyes slightly and said quickly, "I originally thought that my ability was enough to cope with any situation, but I still fell into the opponent's trap. My teammates and I were controlled by the other party. We can use our own abilities, have our own thinking, and even have our own memory and logical reasoning capabilities. However, when we are controlled, we all become each other's people."
Having said this, he moved his eyes downward and glanced at his body.
There was a strong rotten smell that spread throughout the room, like rotting meat on a hot summer day.
It can be seen that a strange liquid has oozed from his body, soaking the black professional suit on his body.
You can even see that his body is collapsing, like a melted popsicle.
There is no doubt that he was controlled by such a body and became like this.
The faint thread that Lu Xin saw in the abyss was also related to this body, because in the process of Lu Xin trying to pull out the opponent's horns, the existence deep in the abyss, the master Dong broke the connection with Black Jack, which allowed Black Jack to wake up. However, because of the break, Black Jack's body began to rot...
"We started investigating Black Marsh City's Special Pollution Event before they sent out a request for help, but judging from the final result, we only know that they rounded up the S-class restricted creatures in Ghostfire Marshland a month ago."
Black Jack had some difficulty and said as quickly as possible, "It was this round-up that led to the following problems."
"Unlike the other High Wall City, Black Marsh City barely formed the complete Special Purity Department."
"For those with abilities, they have always used herding methods."
"Therefore, when other High Wall Citys obtained relevant information and were preparing to follow your example in Qinggang and cultivate their own Mental Lords, they thought of capturing and herding the mysterious creatures in Ghostfire Marshlands in order to control Mental Lords."
"But as a result, they failed."
"..."
Hearing him say so much in one breath, Lu Xin was slightly surprised and said, "Did the creature in the restricted area escape?"
"If so, it's easy."
Black Jack endured the pain caused by the rapid decay of his body, closed his eyes slightly, and said:
"We also took this information as the basis at the beginning, so we formulated a series of action plans."
"Actually, when we contacted the person in charge of the General Administrative Hall of Black Marsh City, we were already prepared for Black Marsh City Administrative Hall to be controlled by that mysterious creature. In our plan, even if the forbidden creature has really mastered Black Marsh City's Administrative Hall, we still have enough plans and strength to recover it on site, but when we actually faced it, we discovered..."
"We were wrong, and terribly wrong!"
"..."
The muscles on his face trembled slightly, showing that he was enduring severe pain.
The rotten smell coming from the body also filled the room with an unbearable pungent smell.
But both Lu Xin and Han Bing were very professional in resisting the smell and listened carefully.
"What appeared in front of us was not Nightmare Serpent in Ghostfire Marshland, but something else..."
Black Jack's body has mostly rotted away, and his speed seems to be increasing, but his voice has also slowed down subconsciously.
Lu Xin and Han Bing were also somewhat surprised.
Even they thought that the restricted area creatures in Ghostfire Marshland were responsible for the Black Marsh City pollution incident.
But Black Jack said it wasn't it, so what could it be?
What else can cause such a pollution incident that affects an entire city?
"That's a... a..."
Black Jack thought hard and gave his answer with some difficulty:
"Scarecrow!"
"I didn't know what the nature of it was, I just saw a scarecrow before it was contained."
"But I know that there is something terrible inside that scarecrow..."
"That is a monster that is indescribably terrifying. Facing it, we have no room to fight back..."
"..."
He spoke quickly, until then, his eyes suddenly looked at Lu Xin: "It's scarier than you..."
"Oh."
Lu Xin agreed, not feeling offended.
But Black Jack looked at Lu Xin and suddenly emphasized his tone again, saying, "What I said is true, that thing is more terrifying than you. After all, although you are scary, I don't think I have any room to fight back in front of you, and that thing is..."
"Oh."
Lu Xin agreed again, wondering why he was arguing about this.
So he tried his best to show a gentle smile and said to Black Jack, "The point is, what exactly is that thing?"
Black Jack looked at Lu Xin, which seemed a little strange.
He seemed to be a little unwilling, slowly withdrew his gaze, and then continued:
"I don't know what it is, so I can only speculate:"
"I think Black Marsh City's action has released something more terrifying than the mysterious creatures in the S-class restricted area."
"I have received information about the S-level forbidden area from a certain channel before. These forbidden creatures, lucky or unfortunate, happen to be the existences selected by the abyss rift. Therefore, under the influence and constant companionship of the power of the abyss, they can quickly acquire various powerful abilities, but at the same time, they are also using their own will to fight against the pollution in the abyss..."
"Every forbidden creature can be understood as a gatekeeper of the abyss."
"When the rift gets out of control, that's when their will is erased, so they will cling to the abyss until one day, the influence of the abyss on them exceeds their limit, and they will be enslaved by the abyss and completely lose themselves..."
"And this is exactly why Research Institute suggested that our major High Wall Citys reach an agreement with the restricted area."
"Whether they are willing or not, now they have to stand on the side that is beneficial to existing humans..."
"..."
At this point, he paused and slowly expressed his speculation. "The problem with Black Marsh City is most likely caused by the experiment to capture the mysterious creature in Ghostfire Marshland. However, their plan caused unexpected variables, so in the end, the gatekeeper in Ghostfire Marshland lost control, and finally, something else ran out."
"Other things..."
When Leng Buding heard Black Jack say this, both Lu Xin and Han Bing frowned slightly.
"Yes, the monster in the abyss is the thing hidden in the scarecrow..."
Black Jack's body swayed slightly and he leaned on the TV cabinet behind him.
That's because too many parts of his body have melted and can no longer support his head.
But the expression on his face did not change at all, and he was still talking. "That is a monster that truly belongs to the abyss. It is not from this world. It should not have appeared in the first place, but it has come to reality through Black Marsh City's plan..."
"..."
"..."
After hearing Black Jack's words, Han Bing's expression became a little frightened.
To her, even though Rao had gone through so much training, she still couldn't understand this concept.
She already knew the existence of the abyss.
There is a terrible Mental Monster in the abyss, and she also knows it.
But she understood better that it was a spiritual thing. Even if it appeared in reality, it could only be projected onto someone and use someone's body to affect reality. Therefore, Black Jack's words at this time simply impacted her cognition.
"The monster in the abyss has come to reality. This... what is this?"
"..."
Black Jack frowned. Obviously, he was only responsible for stating his own inferences, not for answering.
"It means that it has the power to fight reality, and it also means that it has violated some kind of contract?"
Suddenly, a sudden voice sounded.
Han Bing and Black Jack were both slightly startled, and turned to look at Lu Xin.
Han Bing was immediately startled. He saw a strange expression on Lu Xin's face and said slowly, "Monsters in the abyss are monsters in people's hearts. Even if they appear, they can only appear in people's hearts. If there are monsters in the abyss that appear in reality as individuals, it can only mean that there is another 'rule' that has been broken by them..."
"..."
Han Bing saw the gentle smile on Lu Xin's face, and also saw the expressionless expression when he was angry.
However, she had never seen him like this before. His eyes were cold and the corners of his mouth were pursed, as if he was angry or disdainful.
An invisible panic seized her heart, and her face turned a little pale.
She took great courage and asked in a trembling voice, "Mr. Single Soldier, you... how do you know this?"
"..."
"Huh?"
After listening to Han Bing's words, Lu Xin reacted slightly, with a slightly surprised expression.
Yes, how do you know these things?
It seems that he accidentally said it?
