Symbiotic Hallucination (Fourth Update)

"Clang..."

The man dropped the wrench from his hand, and a look of terror gradually appeared on his face.

He felt a sharp pain in his chest, and hot blood flowed down his face. He wanted to run away, but his body had no strength left. He could only look up at Xiao Xiao in disbelief, the fierce and tyrannical expression on his face gradually turning into a strange terror:

"I..."

"..."

But Xiao Xiao showed no intention of talking to him and pulled the trigger directly.

"Bang!"

The man's body shuddered violently, and he fell straight backward to the ground, his face still bearing an expression of terror.

Inside the carriage, Aunt Wang's body trembled violently, as if she had forgotten how to speak, and she just stared blankly out the window.

Xiao Xiao, wearing a hoodie, had already looked up.

Those eyes were completely empty.

"Ah..."

Suddenly, a woman's sharp scream came from inside the car, and there seemed to be the faint sound of a child crying.

I'm so annoyed.

But Xiao Xiao's expression remained cold and indifferent.

Perhaps the whole world is fake, but the feeling of anger in one's heart is real.

Perhaps my mother is just playing the role of a mother and son, but the efforts she makes are real.

Xiao Xiao suddenly felt like he understood something: so what if it's fake?

Even though I know everything in the movie is fake, I still get moved.

She plays the role of my mother, so I feel sorry for her.

Since these people played the role of hurting the mother, they also triggered another emotion of hers. She should be grateful to those who make her feel sorry for her, but what difference would it make if she killed those who make her angry?

It's just a hundred points, it's not like I don't have any.

Thinking this, his expression grew even colder. He kicked the metal wrench on the ground aside and continued walking forward.

I even found it a little funny:

What's their skill level? They're using the same weapon as the soft girl...

Snap, snap, snap...

His footsteps weren't particularly loud in the chaotic parking lot, but to the people in the car, it was like the approach of a demon. The woman in the car screamed and suddenly realized what was happening, struggling to climb into the driver's seat and start the car.

However, in her extreme panic, she couldn't even complete such a simple operation.

With a heavy heart, he forcefully opened the car door and rushed to the back door, trying to take the child out.

"Daddy... I want to find my daddy..."

The child in the back seat was terrified by something and was crying uncontrollably.

The woman screamed in terror, but she could only try her best to pull him out of the car.

Xiao Xiao watched from afar and found it amusing. "A father isn't something that brings a sense of security, so why are you looking for your father?"

He slowly tightened his grip on the cold pistol in his hand.

The three eyes floating beside me slowly flew upwards and descended from above. Their vertical pupils suddenly turned and looked at the car.

"Buzz..."

In that instant, the woman suddenly felt as if she had been struck by a heavy blow; her legs went weak, and she collapsed to the ground.

She looked up Mingming saw Xiao Xiao walking towards her alone, but she felt as if he brought endless darkness with him.

An unusual and mysterious force accompanied his body, surging continuously towards the surrounding parking lot. Countless car lights flashed frequently, the sounds of car audio and video intertwined chaotically, and fine, chilling ripples of air permeated the entire parking lot.

"Demon... devil..."

At that moment, all her strength was drained away, and she lost the slightest courage to resist.

But inexplicably, his mind suddenly cleared, and he finally understood what Xiao's Father had said.

"Madman..."

She suddenly yelled at the top of her lungs, "So you really are crazy, the kind of crazy people they're talking about..."

"Them..."

Xiao Xiao keenly sensed that she seemed to have mentioned something.

However, he simply tilted his head slightly and decided not to think about those useless things.

Right now, I'm just angry and want to vent that anger.

If you want to know something, why don't you just kill the person and then ask your father?

Therefore, he continued to walk slowly forward, gradually approaching the woman, looking down at her, and raising the gun in his hand.

The woman's face was pale with despair as she crawled backward helplessly, her limbs limp.

"Mother..."

But then a child's voice rang out from the side. The boy crawled out of the car and hugged his own leg.

Xiao Xiao frowned and pointed the gun at him.

But at this moment, he also felt a sense of hesitation.

After all, this child was only four or five years old, and after all, his identity among the indigenous people was that of her half-brother...

Of course, this sense of family affection was practically nonexistent for Xiao Xiao, but his deep-seated moral compass still influenced him. However, this influence was only momentary, as Xiao Xiao suddenly realized. "Where are the children? They're all just monsters..."

His hand holding the gun steadied again, but he was just considering which one to shoot first.

Someone once said...

Outsiders in this city have this kind of power; even if they commit murder, they only have points deducted from their record.

In theory, a stranger could own everything in the city.

They indulged their desires, took control of everything, and disregarded moral and legal constraints...

So what if I just wanted to kill a few people out of anger?

Having made up his mind, he hooked his finger on the trigger.

"Buzz..."

But at that very moment, a strange aura suddenly surged up from a distance in the parking lot.

The three eyes floating beside Xiao Xiao instantly changed direction. In their dark red vision, they suddenly saw a dense cluster of lightning flying in from afar, containing an unimaginable terrifying aura...

Xiao Xiao remained motionless, merely observing coldly as the bolt of lightning struck a car three meters away.

The car's metal shell twisted instantly and showed signs of melting.

The scorching heat hit the car, and within a second, the mid-range car was reduced to a pile of scrap metal.

Who is coming?

Xiao Xiao was surprised, but his face remained expressionless; he simply stared at him coldly.

"Mr. Xiao, please wake up..."

Where the lightning flashed, in the flickering light, Xiao Xiao saw people dressed in heavy white protective suits walking quickly forward. They were in a line formation, and the four in front each carried a strangely shaped black gun.

It seemed that the terrifying bolt of lightning just now had come from these guns.

Of course, the intention was merely to issue a warning.

Following behind them was a man in a wrinkled Brazilian suit, with a stubble beard and a wary expression.

He was shouting at Xiao Xiao in a deep voice, "You are in extreme danger right now. The symbiotic hallucinations of the Matrix are affecting you..."

"Please believe me, I have no ill intentions."

"But please don't hurt that woman and child. I'll explain it to you carefully..."

"..."

"Um?"

Xiao Xiao frowned, showing no intention of putting the gun away, but instead stared intently at the man:

"Who are you?"

"..."

As his gaze fell upon the man in the suit, his face paled in shock. He stopped in his tracks and even took a small step back.

The four men in white protective suits who were holding black guns in front of them hurriedly knelt down.

The gun in his hand was simultaneously aimed at Xiao Xiao.

"Don't get agitated..."

The man in the suit was both surprised and frightened. He whispered and shouted, "Mr. Xiao, I have no intention of stopping you, much less making an enemy of you."

"But there's something I must tell you..."

"You've been fooled by that psychiatrist named Yang Jia."

"Completely deceived."

He shouted, "She led you into the maternal influence system, distorting your perception and reason..."

"You are about to do something extremely dangerous. Please stay calm and rational..."

"..."

"Whoosh..."

Xiao Xiao, who was initially just feeling angry, was suddenly startled.

He actually mentioned Yang Jia?

What's the story behind his claim that he was scammed by Yang Jia?

An extremely agonizing and bizarre emotion instantly drew his attention, and he abruptly looked at the man. "What do you mean?"

"Mr. Xiao..."

The Suit Man raised his hands high and walked forward little by little.

It was clear he was under immense pressure, even avoiding Xiao Xiao's gaze, but he forced himself forward, struggling to move through the crowd until he reached the four white-suited team members holding black guns. Only then did he whisper:

"That woman named Yang Jia is one of the members who escaped from the organization."

"She led you into this vast Symbiotic Hallucination system, which is the Matrix..."

"Do you now believe that this entire city is alive?"

Do you believe that everyone around you could turn into a Shedding Skin monster at any moment, wanting to hurt you or even devour you?

"That's all fake, it's all your illusion."

"You have been consumed by a symbiotic collective illusion and are living within a massive illusion..."

"..."

"Buzz..."

In that instant, overwhelming doubt and panic engulfed Xiao Xiao.

He looked up at the Suit Man with disbelief, his heart churning like a tsunami.

How did he know the truth about this city?

Is he also a stranger in a foreign land?

No.

Xiao Xiao could tell with certainty that the Suit Man in front of him was different from the strangers he had encountered in this place.

He is a native.

But if he is an indigenous person, then isn't he just a puppet controlled by the city, just a part of the city?

Why could he say all of this?

Why would a monster say that it knows it is a monster?

As if some kind of logic in his mind had been disrupted, Xiao Xiao fell into a deep state of confusion.
