Everyone gasped for a moment.
It is impossible to describe the feeling of being watched intensively by smiling faces hanging above your head.
His scalp was numb slightly, and the cold air suddenly penetrated from the top of his head to the soles of his feet..
Looking at the scenes of strange human heads hanging in the air in the dark light, their vision even became slightly confused, and their ears were filled with illusory and weird laughter, laughing and joking, piercing their minds like steel needles.
And it is getting louder and louder, seeming to drown the heart.
Even Lu Xin was a little nervous at this moment and clenched his fists slightly.
On the other side, the girl named "Sisi" stood still, rolled her eyes slightly, and looked up.
Inside the down jacket, the sound of metal objects colliding with each other became more intense.
"Don't be nervous."
At this moment, Dr. An suddenly spoke in a deep voice. His voice was so heavy that it woke everyone up.
"No matter what you just heard or saw, it was just an illusion."
She explained in a low voice, "In places where spiritual radiation is particularly strong, it is easy for people to experience confusion in their perception."
"So, whenever there are any inductive suggestions, it will be more likely to trigger corresponding hallucinations."
"Just like seeing the smiley-face-like patterns on these strange fruits, it's easy to hear all kinds of weird laughter..."
"But just remember, it's all an illusion..."
"..."
After listening to her reminder, everyone felt a sense of clarity in their hearts.
When he looked into the air again, he discovered that those fruits that looked like half-broken human bodies were just fruits.
It hangs quietly in the air, occasionally swayed by the wind.
There was no laughter, no increasingly weird smiles.
"What should we do?"
Lu Xin asked dutifully with a calm face.
"No way."
Dr. An looked up at the fruits hanging in the air, shook his head slightly, and said, "There are too many. Even if we want to destroy them, we don't know how much time we will waste. We are here to investigate, not to pick fruits."
"Let's go on!"
She shook her head and said, "There may be more similar inducements and hints later, so just be prepared."
"Once we fall into hallucinations, we may be defeated by ourselves, and it will be easier for us to expose our trump cards to certain unknowns."
"..."
After hearing what the leader said, everyone nodded.
Shake your head one by one, or pat your cheeks to make yourself calmer.
Some even took out cooling oil and sniffed Duan Duan to make themselves clearer and walked forward silently.
However, under the gaze of so many smiling fruits above their heads, the pressure on everyone's hearts was inevitably greater.
When walking, the movements are subconsciously more regular.
After all, even though he knew it was all an illusion, he still subconsciously felt like he was being watched by so many people.
Slowly, I will start to walk like a professional model.
The group of people walked through the dark forest, silently for a long time.
Sure enough, as Dr. An reminded me, whether intentionally or not, everyone felt that as they went deeper, there were more and more weird, suggestive and inducing animals, plants or scenes. It's like a nightmare journey.
They saw human faces growing out of the thick and simple old banyan trees.
It was so stiff and lifeless embedded in the tree, and it suddenly opened its eyes towards them, staring at them.
But when I looked closely, I found that it was just a lifeless tree tumor, without the slightest trace of a human face.
As they walked, they heard a "Gulu" call.
Leng Buding looked up and saw a fat owl squatting on the treetop, looking down at them with two round eyes.
But as soon as Lu Xin touched a stone from the ground, it flew away with a "Tu" sound.
As they were walking, they would sometimes suddenly feel soft and sticky arms grabbing their ankles.
After a panicked tap dance, I discovered that it was just a knotted tree root entwined under a dead branch on the ground. I pulled up these tree roots and looked carefully. Except for a few sickly ants lazily escaping, there was nothing unusual.
Others, such as feeling the sudden gaze from deep in the forest.
The sudden swaying of the grass not far away and so on were just like appetizers.
This is simply the most depressing experience Lu Xin has ever had.
In the past, when he was cleaning up pollution incidents, he would always get to the bottom of it and make sure to investigate and clean it up. But now, he knows that there are problems almost everywhere in this dense forest, but they just turn a blind eye and focus on investigation efficiency.
But because he knew the most important purpose, he could still endure it.
It was my sister who was in a better mood.
One moment she was lying on Lu Xin's back, and the other jumped onto the wooden frame that Azhen was carrying.
After squatting on the treetop, she stared at the owl curiously when the owl stared at Lu Xin and the others.
In this sneaky jungle full of weird things, my sister was in high spirits, happier than those weird things.
After walking like this for almost a day, I felt like I was almost out of this dense forest.
After all, judging from the map at the beginning, it would only take about four hours to walk through this dense forest.
But I don't know why, but they seem to be going deeper and deeper.
There was no light that was about to pass through the forest ahead. Instead, the trees were getting taller and there were more and more strange plants. At this time, after a break, Dr. An silently glanced at Dr. Wang among the three researchers, which seemed to hint at something.
As a result, Dr. Wang's position in the team has moved slightly forward.
"Turn left."
"Go to the right..."
"Go around this big tree and keep moving forward."
"..."
While marching, he also issued reminders from time to time to guide everyone in the direction forward.
The atmosphere was still oppressive and silent. Dr. Wang's reminder was just a reminder and did not explain anything.
But Lu Xin had a feeling that the further they walked, the deeper they entered the dense forest.
It was as if he had entered the darkest period before dawn from midnight, and the concentration of spiritual radiation around him was getting deeper and deeper.
Gradually, I don't know if it was because I went deep into the dense forest and stayed in this depressing and dull environment for too long. Even Lu Xin felt faintly that his steps began to become heavier.
There were already several layers of sweat on his body.
My thinking has become very rigid during this boring journey.
There seemed to be a thick membrane in my ears, and I could only faintly hear the footsteps of people walking in the dense forest.
"Hua Hua Hua..."
"Hua Hua Hua..."
"Dong dong dong..."
"..."
The footsteps started out as the rustling of dead branches and leaves, but became more and more regular and heavy.
At the end, it actually felt like countless people were walking together.
"Huh?"
Lu Xin suddenly reacted, and when he glanced around, he felt his heart sinking slightly.
There are seven people in my investigation team, plus one sister.
My sister was too lazy to walk by herself, so there were only seven footsteps.
But at some point, all the footsteps overlapped together, appearing very orderly and heavy.
This kind of heaviness cannot be achieved by the overlapping footsteps of seven people, as if there are many people.
He slowly paid attention with his peripheral vision.
Then they gradually discovered that as everyone moved forward, a dark figure appeared silently among them.
Taking the same steps as everyone else, he walked forward slowly.
Not long after, another dark figure appeared. No facial features or body could be seen. There was only a shadow, walking silently aside.
Then, another.
Another one...
Gradually, their footsteps became as loud and orderly as an army walking.
And around them, black shadows followed one after another.
In this dense forest with almost no light, it is vast, dense and uniform.
Lifting his feet at the same time and landing at the same time, he hugged the seven of them and slowly walked through the dense forest.
"We have been walking for more than two hours without rest."
It was when Lu Xin discovered this strange scene and was thinking about whether he should remind Dr. An.
Suddenly, Dr. Wang, who was walking in the crowd, suddenly stopped and said, "It's time to deal with them."
"Otherwise, I'll be exhausted if I keep walking like this."
"..."
Dr. An also stopped.
At the same time, all the black figures stopped at this moment, stood around the crowd, and looked at them silently.
The dangerous aura began to spread in the dense forest and gradually deepened.
Dr. An took a deep breath and turned to look at Dr. Wang. There were several dark shadows between them.
But she seemed unable to see these black shadows, and passed directly through them, her eyes falling on Dr. Wang:
"According to your analysis, what's going on?"
"..."
Dr. Wang lowered his head and glanced at the watch on his wrist, as if he wanted to find something in the chaotic numbers.
"I am only good at perception and observation, not analysis."
But when he heard Dr. An's inquiry, he didn't even raise his head and said, "Look for that morally corrupt guy."
"..."
Dr. An was helpless and turned to look at Dr. Zhang.
"Why do you look directly at me when you talk about moral corruption..."
Dr. Zhang whispered, shook his head and said:
"I study Mental Monster, so we all understand that the essence of Mental Monster is Pollution Source."
"Pollution Source's nature is to pollute more spiritual bodies and strengthen its own essence, just like the spread of plague."
"However, Mental Monster all have their own consciousness, and consciousness is often out of sync with nature to some extent."
"Even contradictory."
"That's what we're encountering now."
"It can be seen that their essence is to pollute us, but their consciousness is more to prevent us."
"So, the choice made by Old Wang just now, through analyzing the intentions of Mental Monster, to analyze their most important purpose of interfering with us, and to use this to judge the real route should be taken, is correct. It deserves the nickname of the Humanoid Data Museum..."
"Mental Monster, after all, I don't have a high IQ, so it's easy to predict their actions..."
"..."
"Oh, don't get too close."
Dr. Wang sneered when he heard this, "You are so smart, why don't you know that other people's wives can't be casually hooked up with?"
"This..."
Dr. Zhang heard this, his expression suddenly felt a little awkward and said:
"First, I am just analyzing and evaluating your work. There is no such thing as equivalence."
"Second, in this matter, I was actually the one being hooked, and I was also the victim."
"Third, the reason why it's so serious now is mainly because I didn't expect you to be so crazy and directly use parasitic products..."
"... I thought you'd find out and chop me twice at most."
"... Your anatomy skills are so high, I believe that if you cut twice, you will definitely avoid the vital points!"
"..."
Lu Xin was listening nearby, feeling amazed and forgetting the black shadows around him.
"Fart, who hooked up with you?"
Before Dr. An or Dr. Wang could speak, engineer Master Li was dissatisfied. "It's obviously you."
"You took advantage of me when I drank too much. I am the most innocent one."
"..."
"Huh?"
After hearing this, Dr. Wang suddenly became slightly excited and said to Master Li, "So you still love me in your heart?"
"No."
Master Li said coldly, "I have wanted to divorce you for a long time."
Dr. Wang shuts down instantly.
Dr. Zhang said, "You said you didn't hook up with me, then why did you drink so much with our department and wear such revealing clothes?"
"I can wear whatever I want, what does it have to do with you?"
Master Li was furious and said to Dr. Zhang, "Besides, I was attracted to Xiaodong at the time, who knew you would take advantage of me."
"Xiao Dong?"
Dr. Wang instantly escaped from the autistic state. "That pretty boy?"
Dr. Zhang also said angrily, "Is that the pretty boy with only a master's degree?"
The atmosphere suddenly became extremely awkward, especially Lu Xin, thinking of his college diploma, his lips moved.
I want to say something, but I don't have the confidence to say it.
Dr. An felt that something was wrong with this movement and hurriedly reminded:
"We are currently on an investigation mission. Can you please stop talking about these things..."
"Besides, I know that boy Xiaodong, and he has a good outlook on life. Don't bring that good boy into the mess that you guys are doing... especially you, Teacher Wang. I have never offended you, so don't get in trouble again..."
"..."
"Why do you care so much about him?"
Master Li suddenly turned his head and looked at Dr. An, his pupils contracting slightly.
"Huh?"
Dr. An was taken aback and waved his hands hurriedly. "I have nothing to do with him, I just want to be fair..."
Master Li sneered, "Haha."
Then he looked at Lu Xin and said, "Tell me, can you trust someone like her?"
"Huh?"
Lu Xin was surprised, why did it burn me?
For a moment, the atmosphere in the venue was extremely awkward.
Dr. Wang stared at Dr. Zhang, Dr. Zhang stared at Master Li, and Master Li looked at Dr. An critically.
Dr. An was angry and depressed, looking dissatisfied at Lu Xin who did not stand up to testify for her character.
Next to him, Sisi had his eyes drooped as if nothing had happened, and Azhen behind him was staring at the ground expressionlessly.
The black shadows next to them looked at all of them silently.
On the tree nearby, my sister looked at the black shadow...
Chaos...
It's just a little too messy.
"How about..."
Lu Xin, who originally didn't want to show up in such chaos, couldn't help but suggest in a low voice:
"Solve the immediate problem first?"
"..."
"..."
"Huh..."
Dr. An also reacted, regained his temperament as a leader, and said, "Yes, everything is focused on the investigation mission."
"Whatever..."
Master Li agreed obligingly, and suddenly looked at Dr. An: "Are you really okay?"
Dr. An raised his hands anxiously and swore. "It's really okay."
"Okay then..."
So everyone's eyes finally fell on Dr. Wang and Dr. Zhang.
"What's the point of the investigation mission?"
Dr. Zhang muttered, then glanced at Dr. Wang with a guilty conscience, and said, "In short, according to my induction and analysis, we have been spied on by at least seven kinds of Mental Monster along the way. We have almost entered a monster kingdom."
"The one following us now is the strongest among these Mental Monster."
"It contaminates us and keeps us safe for a while."
"Of course, as we continue to move forward, we are slowly approaching their limit and are about to attack us."
"..."
"As if no one can see it..."
Dr. Wang muttered disdainfully, and then raised his voice slightly. "Pollution logic?"
"Frequency!"
Dr. Zhang's voice also mentioned slightly. "In places with a high concentration of spiritual radiation, follow the creatures that intend to pollute."
"Start from the steps and form unity bit by bit."
"Then there's breathing, heartbeat, pulse, and finally, even the fluctuations in our mental power."
"When we are unified with them at all levels, we quietly become one of them."
"..."
"On this journey, it is precisely because there is a person among us who has very stable mental strength..."
Then he glanced at Lu Xin and said:
"Through some kind of abnormal mental fluctuations, their frequencies were disturbed, so it was not successfully contaminated by them."
"However, they are also conscious after all. Although they are slower, there are instructions in their consciousness to stop us."
"So, if they continue, they are likely to change their behavioral logic and forcibly contaminate us."
"It can be understood as releasing their essence."
"..."
"Ah..."
Lu Xin are a little surprised.
Unexpectedly, these seemingly unreliable researchers could see through everything without making a sound.
Especially for himself, he was right.
He even guessed that there was some kind of force disturbing the surrounding frequencies.
But what he didn't know was that this "some kind of power" was not his own, but his sister's.
"Huh..."
After listening to his analysis, Dr. An also breathed a sigh of relief and said, "What will be the consequences if we clean them up?"
Dr. Zhang shook his head, glanced around, and said, "Two consequences."
"Because now we are actually being protected by them, so if they are eliminated, other monsters will target us."
"Even because we were almost close to our destination, driven by strong will, they swarmed up and attacked us."
"The other is because we destroyed these monsters, causing other Mental Monster to feel fear and stay away."
"..."
"..."
"It's about as good as I expected."
Dr. An lowered his head slightly, pondered for a moment, and said, "That's pretty much it."
As she said that, she turned to look at Sisi and nodded.
The little girl named Sisi seems to be impatient all the time. It also seemed that she just gave people such a feeling. In fact, she and Azhen who followed behind were completely indifferent to the outside world and had no reaction.
Only when some kind of intuitive danger affects her will she instantly show an alertness similar to that of an animal.
Aware of Dr. An's gaze, she slowly took a few steps forward.
Seeing her actions, Zhang, Li, and Wang consciously moved to the middle of the team.
They were packed tightly, but there was also a lot of disgust and contempt for each other.
On the other side, Dr. An also came to them. Even the tall Azhen silently and proactively stepped forward and stood next to them, like a big tree, shielding these people under his tall body.
A group of people stood up and looked at Lu Xin next to them.
"Am I coming too?"
Lu Xin pointed to his nose, came over honestly, and stood next to Azhen.
Now facing these people, he feels that Azhen is the only one who is reassuring.
Following their movements, the shadows next to them also slightly adjusted their positions and order.
There seemed to be a dull look on each of the blurry faces, with no facial features visible, cast towards them.
Hula la...
In the distance of the dense forest, behind the layers of trees, there seemed to be countless strange things, causing a commotion.
"That's it."
Dr. An saw that everyone was already standing together, so he whispered to Sisi, "Hurry up."
"We're in a hurry."
"..."
The little girl named Sisi nodded silently and then unzipped her heavy down jacket.
Wow.
The down jacket fell off her body, and Lu Xin could see her body clearly.
At this moment, his pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly.
Along the way, she kept hearing the sound of metal objects colliding inside her down jacket.
I also speculated about what was hidden under her down jacket.
It wasn't until this moment that Lu Xin saw that this little girl, who looked ordinary in appearance, had an extremely weird body.
Groups of blood-red flesh buds were wrapped around the surface of her body like threads, squirming slightly.
In various parts of the body, there are shiny silver stainless steel ring locks one after another to fix these granulations.
It seems that if it is not fixed, these flesh teeth will be out of control.
At this moment, as she took off her down jacket, the little girl named Sisi also gently untied a metal ring on her right arm.
"Be careful!"
Dr. An reminds you in a low voice:
"Although she has the body of a little girl, she is actually a very dangerous high-level forbidden creature."
"Research Institute used genetic remodeling and cerebral cortex enhancement technology to help her temporarily maintain stability."
"If she doesn't always wear the mental trait suppression lock specially created for her, her power may get out of control at any time..."
"The cost of losing control is, at the very least, the destruction of a city!"
It's the end of the month, and another round of competition for monthly tickets has arrived.
Two updates added today to show the sincerity of Old Ghost.
I won't talk about anything else, I just want to keep the top ten this month...
