Tomb Raider: Villain System, Start with Umbrella Corporation

Zhang Qiling, covered in blood, was leaning against the wall, gasping for breath. His hand, which was surprisingly steady even when holding an extremely heavy knife, was now so weak that he could hardly hold up his body and stop shaking.

Xiao Lingguan stared at Zhang Qiling closely. If he made any move, he might fall to the ground. He walked more than ten steps to the cave entrance.

Wu Xie's entry was the ambitious plan of the tomb robbers from the Old Nine Gates after they saw the truth. The Zhang family has experienced too many such things. In every dynasty, and even every generation, people have been trying to eliminate this possibility and prevent unpredictable accidents from happening before the closed loop is completed.

It can only be said that the people of the Old Nine Gates are very lucky, as they are at the end of the closed loop. The Zhang family has never cared about their ambitions of the world's will and so-called becoming gods.

Entering the cave was Wuxie's own decision. Although Zhang Qiling was used to accepting Wuxie's requests for help, he never participated in other people's life decisions. The experience in Leicheng in Southeast Asia was an exception. Subconsciously, he always paid extra attention to the blind man's death.

What followed was a long period of darkness. After an unknown amount of time, Zhang Musi realized that something seemed to be moving in the darkness, as if the darkness had come alive and turned into a huge creature, and the range of his visual field was only the tip of the iceberg of this huge object.

He was thinking, where are the people?

I saw the darkness twisting rapidly, and in the blink of an eye it became crazy and chaotic, like the gorgeous scene produced by poisonous mushrooms.

Countless colors exploded before my eyes, lines with unclear meanings, human-shaped patches, and countless meaningless things intertwined together, it was extremely crazy.

This is not a picture that humans can see. Zhang Musi realized that the scene before him was a picture that was presented directly in the brain, bypassing the visual field.

Breaking through the limits of vision, all visible and invisible color spectra were displayed in detail before him.

why?

What was that darkness before?

Why show him this?

Zhang Musi couldn't understand so many mysteries, he only focused on what was in front of him.

According to Da Huang, the truth of this area is affecting their progress. As long as they can understand the essence of Shambhala, perhaps they can really solve it.

Like a display with garbled characters, Zhang Musi carefully sorted them out in his mind and finally discovered the pattern.

This is not a hint or a secret code. The colorful screen in front of them is exactly what happened after they entered the cave.

Underneath Shambhala is a cavernous structure so huge that it is hard to imagine how huge it is, large enough to support the entire Tibetan Plateau.

Zhang Musi was not sure whether they had entered this so-called cavity, but one thing he was sure of was that everyone was in a very bad condition.

This is a living land, and every scene he sees is interwoven with countless chaotic and abnormal energies.

This is both an objectively existing space and constructed by human thoughts.

This majestic life seems to be able to sense the memories, emotions and logic of every life. The abnormal energy is distorting your cognition all the time.

Wuxie was the first to enter the cave. At that moment, the final destination of this journey appeared in his mind for no reason. Through a passage that seemed extremely strange yet empty to him, the three of them went down firmly.

The scene that Zhang Musi saw made him break out in a cold sweat. Judging from the energy feedback, the so-called passage did not exist objectively. From Wuxie, Fatty, to the last Zhang Qiling, they were all, without exception, as if they were trapped in their own hallucinations, like earthworms, wriggling forward in the mud.

It's not that these people have turned into pangolin spirits, but that the soil around them is made up of tiny lives without exception. They have exerted their group consciousness, and for some unknown purpose, they have brought several people into desperate situations time and time again. When the blind man found Wuxie and the fat man, the two of them had collapsed in the mud, their consciousness had already become scattered, and Wen Binghui had already died on the road that the blind man passed by.

Even after seeing the blind man, it took several minutes to remember.

His memory was running low, and the blind man felt that his mind was beginning to become confused. They had only walked less than one-ninth of the way to the destination in their minds.

"From here to Yaochi, there are 34,000 gates, and it is immeasurably deep. Below the Nine Springs, you will reach Mingquan, where the springs gather to form a pool."

The place they were going to was under the Nine Springs, and they still had a long way to go to the first underground river.

The blind man gritted his teeth. Every second he stayed here, the memory and consciousness in his brain would be in the process of collapse.

There is no news to prove whether this dissipation can be reversed, so don't hope or rely on luck.

He was clearly aware of the illusion in the space, but now it seemed that he had no way to deal with it.

Carrying Wuxie on his back and dragging the backpack strap on the fat man's shoulder, he walked forward with great difficulty.

I'm even glad that I don't have to eat or defecate here.

He had only taken a few steps when he suddenly felt a pair of strange hands grabbing him in the darkness.

This feeling is very familiar. The blind man "looked" at the direction of his arm in surprise. There was no mistake, this was the immortal.

"Why are you here?" The blind man chuckled and said jokingly, "This is not a good place. You, a living god, should not come here."

"You shouldn't have come in here."

"Someone has to do it." The dry lips tore and tasted blood. "Just like you, didn't you come to save the blind man?"

Chang Shenxian sighed. He had the ability to cure diseases and save lives, and he could also sense the lives of patients. Although he failed to cure the blind man's eyes last time, Chang Shenxian felt an unprecedented shock in the blind man's life. This shock made him feel deeply sorry for not being able to make a decision.

"I wish I could heal your eyes, but here, the improvement isn't permanent."

The blind man was silent for a long time, then said "thank you" in a hoarse voice.

He could feel a cool touch entering his eyes, and then his whole body seemed to be reactivated. All the discomfort and fatigue from dehydration disappeared in an instant.

When he opened his eyes, he saw the complete Chang Shenxian for the first time.

The most horribly deformed body, but with the kindest heart.

The immortal allowed him to look at him, and after a moment, he took out a diamond-like stone from his body and handed it to the blind man.

"I won't pay you for the consultation, but you still want to give me diamonds?" The blind man teased the honest man jokingly, "You will lose a lot if you do business like this."

"I feel like you might need him, but... after you put it in, you'll become like me."

"Hahahahaha" the blind man happily shook the stone in his hand. "I don't use this thing, just like you."

The immortal showed a rare look of embarrassment on his deformed face, "I thought about it and decided that I should let you know."

"Your other teammate has also come in, behind you, not very far away."

"Fuck!" The relaxed expression on the blind man's face instantly disappeared, and he cursed fiercely, "Can you take him out?"

“That’s what he asked me.”

Well, the blind man now realized that the mute was determined to follow him.

Things have changed and he has to speed up.

Handing the diamond to the long immortal "Come on!"

The finger, which was as long as a bamboo stick, grabbed the diamond and with a little force, it pierced through the blind man's skull. The diamond fell accurately into the brain along the hole.

"This place is different from what you see. Although the things in your head cannot let you see the truth, they are enough to prevent interference from outside the subject's will."

The blind man nodded thoughtfully, and gave the fat man's money to the immortal as a medical fee.

"Do you want to stew this fat guy and eat him, or take him out and let him go? I won't care. Anyway, just don't rape him."
