long night fire

"How come..." Qiao Chu looked down with the help of the flashlight that came with the exoskeleton device.

There was obvious puzzlement and doubt in his tone.

According to his experience, it will take at least one day for the goodwill from his charm to evolve into distorted possessiveness and aggressive "admiration". Unexpectedly, the four people on the opposite side have changed so quickly.

This is not a wild animal or a "mindless person" with only instinct left, only thinking about mating and possession, and it will not take long to go crazy.

While talking to himself, Qiao Chu took out the sky blue mirror case and opened the lid with a snap.

He then looked into the mirror and saw a bloody wound on his gracefully curved chin.

This is the trace of being rubbed by a ricochet.

"How dare..." Qiao Chu's pupils dilated, and his tone was filled with unconcealable anger.

He took a breath, looked at himself in the mirror with pity, and put away the sky blue box.

After sealing the wound with a medical bandage, Qiao Chu looked coldly at the corridor where Jiang Baimian and the others were.

He thought for two seconds, gave up revenge now, turned around, and walked to the end of the current corridor.

He did not forget that the goal of this trip was the underground computer room.

Moreover, his purpose of using Shang Jianyao and others has also been initially achieved, and he has found out that there is a "higher heartless person" or abnormal creature here that can make him charm and fail.

He has always been very clear that there are many dangerous creatures in this building, and he was the nightmare horse he met here before.

……

"The military exoskeleton device is really difficult to deal with..." Long Yuehong was quite disappointed to see that she couldn't kill Qiao Chu and prevent others from getting it.

This is the number of times he has felt the power of military exoskeleton devices.

Bai Chen also sighed lightly, seeming to be very regretful.

Jiang Baimian nodded, and glanced at the corner:

"Let's go over there."

This is diagonally opposite to Qiao Chu's position.

"Stop chasing him?" Long Yuehong asked in surprise.

Shang Jian Yao glanced at him with a smile:

"Do you want to try how weird his awakener ability is?"

After chasing the past like this, in a building with many walls, it is difficult to maintain a good distance and not enter the influence range of the awakened person's ability.

——Even Jiang Baimian's ability to sense electrical signals was greatly reduced in such an environment.

"That's right." Long Yuehong thought of Shang Jianyao's "reasoning clown", and gave up the idea of ​​chasing Qiao Chu without hesitation.

Jiang Baimian let out a "hmm":

"Our goal is to get around the stairwell as quickly as possible and get back to the first floor."

She explained quickly:

"Qiao Chu's purpose is to find the underground computer room, restore power to the building, and then go to the power grid center to power up the entire ruins of the city.

"This also means that he will inevitably leave the underground floor in a short time, and then leave this building and go to that laboratory.

"Now that you understand this, you should be able to think that whether it's in the elevator hall on the first floor, in the stairwell, or at a high point where you can monitor the surrounding area, you can snipe Qiao Chu very well.

"We don't need to stay in this place with complicated terrain, many obstacles, and a lot of weird 'unintentional people'."

Bai Chen, Shang Jianyao, and Long Yuehong had no objection to this, and immediately turned to the aisle on the right with their weapons in hand.

"Team leader, tell me, what are the abilities of Qiao Chu's Awakened?" In the dark environment where only the light of the flashlight was shaking, Long Yuehong asked while guarding the surroundings and moving forward cautiously.

"I was just about to talk about this." Jiang Baimian nodded lightly.

Finding out about this problem as soon as possible can effectively avoid half of the danger when encountering Qiao Chu later.

"Charm?" Bai Chen raised the most obvious possibility.

Shang Jianyao added:

"Getting others crazy about drawing?"

He remembered that when he was in the jeep, he was about to fuck Qiao Chu, but was dismissed by the other party with a piece of paper, a pen, and a rhetorical question.

"No." Shang Jianyao immediately denied his statement, "It should be, creating preferences or igniting fanaticism..."

"You have experience in this area, you have the final say." Jiang Baimian did not argue, but instead said, "When he wanted to kill Long Yuehong before, we all seemed to become extremely depressed and didn't want to do anything."

"It's frustrating? This is the third awakened person's ability... What is the price he paid? The charm is so powerful and terrifying." Long Yuehong just finished saying this, and suddenly came to her senses, "Why can we Discussing Qiao Chu's charm so naturally? Wait, why would I want to kill him and make him a specimen collection."

"You are so perverted." Shang Jianyao glanced at Long Yuehong.

"It's not you..." Long Yuehong suddenly stopped, "Your ability to 'deduce a clown' has failed?"

Jiang Baimian nodded thoughtfully:

"It seems that we have escaped from Qiao Chu's charm and are no longer influenced by him.

"And the premise of the previous 'reasoning' is that we like Qiao Chu. Without this condition, the conclusion will of course be invalid."

Bai Chen thought for a while and said:

"Then shall we stop Qiao Chu?"

"Of course!" Jiang Baimian replied decisively, "I've always been very narrow-minded, he put us in such a dangerous situation, and even ate our energy bars, our compressed biscuits, and our military cans, for sure You have to take revenge!"

Why are these words so familiar... Long Yuehong responded subconsciously:

"But……"

Although he also hated Qiao Chu, he felt that there was no need to stay here and take risks, and it was better to leave as soon as possible.

Jiang Baimian glanced at him and Shang Jianyao, and said "Yes":

"The main reason is that we have to stay here for a while to see what will happen after the power supply is restored to the ruins of the entire city, hehe, or the power supply will not be restored.

"You can't rush back along the original route.

"Since that's the case, why don't you just guard Qiao Chu by the way, so as not to waste time."

After finishing speaking, she suddenly asked:

"Have you ever seen squirming flesh, a breath of extreme terror, an old woman in a line cap, the skeleton of a baby swaddled?"

"No." Long Yuehong, Bai Chen, and Shang Jianyao shook their heads at the same time.

"Me neither." Jiang Baimian nodded, "So, where did the illusion created by the 'advanced mindless' come from? There must be a root cause, in terms of their low-level wisdom."

Shang Jianyao replied immediately:

"Maybe the 'higher heartless person' has seen squirming flesh and blood, seen the old woman wearing a wire cap, seen the skeleton of a baby wrapped in swaddling clothes, and sensed an extremely terrifying breath."

Having said that, he paused for a moment, and his voice instantly became quite gloomy:

"She might even have heard the old woman say:

"You guys...argued so much...Xiao Chong..."

In the light of the flashlight, Shang Jianyao's face was uncertain.

Chapter 78 The Source of Illusions

Hearing Shang Jianyao's description, Long Yuehong only felt chills and fear rising, so she couldn't help but interrupted the other party:

"Stop, stop!

"Don't be so scary, okay?"

"Help you deepen your memory." Shang Jianyao explained with a serious face, "When you meet in the future, you will be able to react immediately."

"Don't, don't say that, it's better not to meet each other!" Long Yuehong was almost afraid of Shang Jianyao's bad mouth, because he thought he was a child of bad luck, and he was worried about what his friends would say.

Shang Jianyao gave a "hmm", turned to look at Jiang Baimian ahead, nodded sincerely and said:

"Thank you."

When he described it just now, Jiang Baimian took the initiative to shine the flashlight backwards, which brought a very good effect.

——Among the four of them, only Jiang Baimian held a flashlight in his hand.Because the others had to hold their weapons and finished shooting immediately, they just turned on the flashlight hanging on the armed belt and let it shine vertically on the ground, radiating a small area around it.

Jiang Baimian laughed and turned the flashlight forward:

"What you just said is pretty much what I guessed.

"Since the hallucinations we see do not originate from ourselves, they must come from the 'advanced mindless' who created the hallucinations, and with her intelligence only slightly higher than that of the beast, it is impossible to make too complex processing and processing of information.

"Therefore, we can preliminarily judge that what we see is what she has encountered before, but there may be certain, simple displacement and reorganization.

"That's interesting."

After listening to the captain's words, Bai Chen said thoughtfully:

"That aura that makes people feel extremely frightened and can't even stand still seems to really exist...

"I don't know where I met that 'advanced heartless person'... What does the owner of that breath look like..."

Having said that, she and Jiang Baimian answered in unison:

"That mysterious laboratory!

"The one who made that huge roar!"

Bang bang bang, Shang Jianyao patted the side of the "Berserker" assault rifle with one hand, as if applauding.

"Thank you." Jiang Baimian replied angrily, and then, while sensing the electrical signals around him and observing the place illuminated by the beam of the flashlight, he organized his words and said, "Maybe that 'higher mindless person' has approached just now." In the laboratory, I have even entered through some passages that normal people can't find, and I felt that extremely terrifying breath..."

"Where's the wriggling flesh and blood?" Long Yuehong subconsciously asked.

Bai Chen pondered and replied:

"It may be a failed product in the laboratory. However, the old world has been destroyed for almost 70 years, and a failed product cannot survive until now."

"Perhaps the 'advanced mindless person' has seen flesh and blood blown into mud, and usually grabs wriggling bugs as food, so when creating hallucinations, he combined the two." Jiang Baimian tried to understand The essence of that scene, "the wrinkled old woman and the baby's skeleton in swaddling clothes should really exist, but it's not sure whether the former is still wandering somewhere in the ruins of the city.

"In short, either the old woman has even weirder abilities, or her experience touched some instincts of the 'advanced mindless person', which left a deep impression on her, and naturally reflected what she saw and heard at that time. I used it in the illusion I created."

Bai Chen immediately guessed:

"That old woman is also a 'higher heartless person', but the child she gave birth to died? She has been holding the child's bones in her arms, refusing to admit it?

"It's sure to hit something on other 'higher mindless' people who have reproductive and maternal instincts."

"But the problem is? 'Advanced Unintentional Person' should not have the ability to speak, why can he say something like 'You guys are so noisy'? Could this be the special feature of that 'Advanced Unintentional Person'? Yes, she doesn't seem to be old enough to give birth, unless..." Jiang Baimian said while thinking, and gradually found the answer.

At this time, Shang Jianyao laughed first and said:

"Who hasn't been young yet?

"Maybe, that old lady was only in her twenties when the old world was destroyed?

"At that point, she became 'Heartless' and her child died instantly.

"This is also a huge blow to the unintentional person who has reproductive and maternal instincts, causing her to firmly remember the words she said when the child died.

"Afterwards, holding the child in her arms, she repeated the whisper as she hunted:

"'You guys...are so noisy...Xiao Chong...'

"In this way, she kept repeating this sentence until the baby turned into bones and her face was covered with wrinkles.

"To this day, she may still be somewhere in the ruins of the city, holding the baby's skeleton in her swaddle, whispering:

"'You guys...are so noisy...Xiao Chong...'"

"Hiss, don't use the tone of telling ghost stories to guess such a serious matter!" Long Yuehong felt chills all over her body, as if the words "You...you are so noisy... Xiao Chong..." echoed in her ears. talk.

"Don't you think this subject matter is good?" Shang Jianyao was quite regretful.

"Aren't you afraid?" Long Yuehong asked with a slightly distorted expression.

Jiang Baimian interrupted the "dispute" between the two, nodded lightly and said:

"It's pretty much what I thought.

"Okay, don't discuss any more, just figure out the situation initially.

"Let's leave the underground as soon as possible and return to the first floor. Then, there will be plenty of time to resume."
