This sudden sound, although very weird, lifted Joel's spirits.

He heard the sound coming from above, and the other party must be on a tree, so he raised his hand and touched the trunk of the tree, and with his hands and feet, he struggled to climb up, and soon climbed to the top.

"Where are you? Come out!"

But when he got up the tree, he found that he didn't know where the sound came from, and now his sight and smell were obscured, and the fog and smell of barbecue made it impossible for him to rely on his senses to determine where the target was.

He needs the other party to continue to speak out so that he can continue to lock the position by relying on the source of life.

"Are you looking for me?" the little girl's voice sounded from under the tree this time.

"Ah——" Joel didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, and directly leaned on the direction of the sound source locked by the first reaction, and swooped down from the tree.

He fell heavily to the ground in a straight way, and the whole person screamed in pain.

In fact, with the height he just climbed, if he jumped down directly on his feet, according to his physical function and athletic ability, he would take advantage of the situation to unload his strength, and nothing would happen.

But he chose a "hungry tiger pounces" killing posture - of course, this side is not a hard ground, plus his strength and recovery ability are far stronger than ordinary people, and it only hurts for a while.

After all, he was also in a hurry.

For Joel now, under the influence of the bloodthirsty impulse of the stage limit, he is close to losing his mind.

He wished that a powerful and terrifying "blood clan" or "blood beast" would appear now, even if he was hung up and beaten and torn to pieces, it would be better than the torture he was now.

He had already felt his body, his muscles, and even his consciousness begin to feel a little out of control.

If there is no more qualified "blood source", then he will not be too far from disintegrating and dissipating.

He hoped that the guy who tossed him, tortured him behind the scenes, and led him to this Chongyun Mountain, the little girl in the white dress, could appear directly, tell him when and what method he used to hypnotize him, and then fight with him in the open.

Although he knew that his chances of winning were slim, he would already be able to die blindly.

He didn't even want to use his strongest hypnotic and mental disturbance abilities, of course, he also thought that the other party should be better than him in this regard.

But the little girl in the white dress, obviously not intending to fulfill his wishes, "disappeared" after the two mocking sounds.

After Joel recovered his strength, he got up from the ground, cursed the little girl in the white dress frantically, scolded for a while, whined and became painful, kept begging, and even directly said that he was willing to sacrifice his own flesh and blood, and just wanted to change "understand".

But there was still silence all around, except for the seemingly endless fog and the smell of barbecue coming from nowhere.

In Joel's heart, he had already decided that the little girl in the white dress was behind the scenes, but he still couldn't figure out what kind of existence she was, and why he couldn't perceive the other party through all kinds of tried and tested sensory methods?

In his heart, this little girl in a white dress is like an evil and powerful devil.

And this devil, in this mountain forest, seems to be more like a fish in water than him, as if he can control everything. Even the parasitic plant "prosthesis" formed by the "prosthetic tissue fluid" he arranged along the way in advance was devoured and devoured by something unknown, and there was not a single one left.

The phrase "I heard you are called the Lord of the Forest" was as if he was sarcastically and mocking him.

Wait, she knows her title of "Lord of the Forest", so maybe it means that John fell into their hands?

Joel suddenly had a glimmer of hope, John, who was much weaker than him, could get two opportunities for stage transformation, then his "cultivation value" would definitely be much greater than John's!

Perhaps, the current torture is just to make him succumb. If he was willing to surrender and be "cultivated," maybe he would be like John, and maybe even hand over John to him in order to get him past the stage limit.

He suddenly regained a little confidence and sanity, because he suddenly thought that the other party had made such a great effort to lead him into this Chongyun Mountain Mountain, and he would definitely not let him be affected by the stage limit in vain and disintegrate and dissolve directly.

Whether it is to "cultivate" him or use him as a "blood source" to cultivate John, he will not let him disintegrate and dissipate - because his greatest value is a body of "blood blood".

Naturally, he didn't know that the reason why Alice had just spoken out was because she had observed her behavior according to the Joel cognitive model established by Xiang Kun, and judged that she had fallen into despair.

In order to prevent Joel from despairing to "commit suicide" and destroy Xiang Kun's "observation plan", Alice took the initiative to come out and hang around to divert his attention.

If Joel hears what he thinks is the "devil", he will talk about his situation in the forest in a kindergarten child's tone and Tianjin dialect with a Hunan accent, and his brain may go down directly, thinking that everything is an illusion.

When Alice was commenting happily, she suddenly stopped and looked to the side at Kun - Lao Xia's eyes were squinting, and his head was little by little, and he had already entered a semi-sleep state.

It's too late, and in a little while, the sun should come out. During Joel's entry, Lao Xia has been staying up all night with him, so he has been a little sleep-deprived.

Xiang Kun nudged her lightly and said, "Just leave it to me and Alice here, you go to sleep first, and I will inform you of the results tomorrow." ”

Xia Libing rubbed her eyes, and didn't say much, she knew that now it was basically "the overall situation has been decided", as for the analysis of super sensory information, she couldn't participate yet, there was really no need to stay up all night together, so she got up and went out of the room upstairs and went to Little Apple's room to sleep together.

A few days ago, Tang Baona and Yang Zhener had already gone to Pengcheng, and their "Qiankun Technology" and "Tengjiao Mutual Entertainment" had new cooperation projects.

Xia Tianhuo has a partnership with Chu Xiuwen, Liu Caifu, and Zicheng in Tongshi Town, and they all live in the town during this time, and it seems that they are still preparing to buy a house in Tongshi Town.

So after Xiang Kun and Lao Xia ran to this courtyard, it was naturally impossible for Xiao Apple to stay in the newly rented house over there, although she was accompanied by egg yolk pie and Jin Shanshan, she would not be in any danger, but they still let her come here to rest, anyway, she would sleep with Lao Xia here.

Through sensory information such as breathing and heartbeat, after judging that Lao Xia upstairs had fallen asleep, Xiang Kun turned his attention to Joel in Chongyun Mountain.

Alice turned down the sound of the speaker very "sensibly", although the tone was still the same, but the volume was much lower, she knew that the volume was no different to Xiang Kun at all.

Alice radioed through Joel's mobile phone, and played Joel's voice directly into the speaker, this "old blood clan" actually solemnly expressed his allegiance to Alice - of course, he didn't know Alice's name, he was called "Honorable Lady in White Dress", and then explained in detail the process of his several phased transformations, the "bloodline", "bloodline", "blood beast" and "blood plant" he devoured, and carefully explained the abilities derived from his own mutation, and then expressed his willingness to surrender and loyalty" The honorable lady in the white dress", willing to be her permanent servant, even willing to give his life and blood, even if he wants him to become John's "blood source", he has no objection.

His tone was sincere and humble, and according to Alice's explanation, he even knelt on the ground and touched his forehead.

Xiang Kun was a little surprised at first, but he immediately understood his thoughts and his brain circuits, and he could understand it......

Xiang Kun glanced at the time and said to Alice, "It's almost dawn." ”

"Understood!" Alice replied in a crisp voice.

So, kneeling on the ground in Chongyun Mountain, the old blood clan with a posture of "I Joel is willing to surrender" did not wait for the visible response of the "noble lady in the white dress", but waited for a thicker fog, a more barbecue smell, and a sudden sharp sound like metal rubbing.

The all-round sensory intrusion immediately intensified Joel's bloodthirsty mania, but what made him even more devastated was that such a reaction seemed to be a rejection of what he considered to be extremely humble submission.

Joel shouted angrily a few times, the harsh sound of metal rubbing made him extremely manic, he knew that he had no time, even if he could break out of Chongyun Mountain now, it was too late to find a qualified "blood source".

He fell to the ground and spat out his straw-like mouthparts again, exuding a large amount of "prosthetic tissue fluid".

Although his senses of sight, hearing, and smell are now greatly disturbed, and the pre-arranged "prostheses" have been eradicated, he can still use his own way to perceive the location of those "prosthetics" and "prosthetic tissue fluids" that have disappeared.

Relying on this method, even if he can't see, hear, or smell, he can still find his way into the mountain.

He had already decided, no matter what, he had to leave Chongyun Mountain first, and after he went to the city, he would grab a few random people and finally drink a lot of blood happily, and before disintegrating, he would finally have a good time.

Maybe you can force the mastermind behind the scenes out and let him fight to the death.

After groping his way through the fog for a while, something slammed into his chest and fell to the ground.

He was startled, hesitated, fumbled down to pick up the thing, and found that it was a piece of grilled chicken wings?

He put it to his nose and sniffed it deeply, and the smell was ...... It's the smell of barbecue in the thick fog.

But in the next moment, the roasted chicken wings in his hand suddenly disappeared, Joel was startled, and his mind was a little trance for a while - was it just a hallucination?

The real touch and aroma of grilled chicken wings made him doubt his sensory judgment and mental sobriety.

Could it be that the fog, the smell, and the sound in front of me are all just hallucinations and have never appeared?

Joel shook his head, suppressed his manic bloodthirsty impulse, and prepared to move on, only to find that he couldn't tell the direction by the interruption he had just made.

So Joel could only lie down again, open his mouth, and was about to spit out his mouthparts, when suddenly an object appeared and blocked his mouth, causing him to bounce off the ground and roll backwards.

Startled, Joel recalled what had just gagged him, like a piece of meat, or a piece of meat with a crispy fried skin?

The screeching sound of metal rubbing in my ears suddenly disappeared, and then a crisp little girl's song sounded: "Let's learn cat meow together, meow together......"

Joel was stunned for a moment, and suddenly reacted, the sound came from his mobile phone, but when he took out his mobile phone, he found that his mobile phone screen could not wake up, and at the same time, the sound source changed from the mobile phone amplifier to behind him.

When he turned around, the voice changed to his right, and then to his left.

The source of the sound was erratic, like a ghost.

A song that is obviously very cute, but to Joel's ears, it looks like a magic sound from hell.

He grabbed his hair so hard that he covered his ears, and even felt the urge to pull his eyes off.

Suddenly, a sprout grew on the back of his hand.

The small shoots were strong enough to tear open his skin and struggle outward to grow, but where it was torn, there was no blood flowing out, and the skin and the shoots were tightly combined, as if they were one.

Hallucination?

Just when Joel was a little confused, he felt a little itchy in his nose, touched it, and found that two extremely thin vines were sticking out of his nostrils, growing outward.

He was startled, and reached out to grab the vine to tear it off, but when he pulled it, it was a brain-piercing pain that almost made him faint.

The vines seemed to be connected to his brain?

He also noticed that his nails had somehow turned black and were elongating, and his bones were beginning to deform.

Joel gradually lost control of his body, and something kept growing in his ears and mouth before burrowing into the earth, as if to connect him to the earth.

His mind remembered some of the words that the "True Pulse Bloodline" had told him when he first entered the "Red Rose".

At that time, there were many words, and the "old-timer" said it in a plausible and very vague way, and he listened to it very confusedly. In the end, the "old-timer" told him that when the possibility of breaking through the stage limit is very slim, "pure-blood internal circulation" and dedicating his blood to all members is the best destination.

At this moment, he suddenly understood many words that he didn't understand at the beginning, and he knew that his time had come, and the disintegration brought about by the stage limit was irreversible.

The sensation in the body is not just pain, but also a clear feeling that all the muscles, all the organs, and even all the cells are defecting, in the civil war, in the self-mutation.

It is an irresistible despair and fear.

In the process, he suddenly remembered the first human he had killed and drunk blood, then the second, and then the third......

One face after another appeared in his mind, and he once thought that he had forgotten these people a long time ago, just like for ordinary people, no matter how good their memory is, it is impossible to remember where every apple they have eaten was bought from, what their characteristics, what their size is, how they taste, how every fish and chicken they eat came from, and what the process from killing to eating is. For him, ordinary human beings are just "food" and "snacks" that can satisfy short-term appetites and needs, and he has never taken it to heart.

Now he realized that those memories had always been in his mind and had never been forgotten.

The faces of despair when he was dying, the people he tortured and begged for death out of bad taste, the old people, the prime of life, the women, the children......

He suddenly felt their pain, their despair.

Originally...... In the face of death, is everyone the same?

The fog lifted suddenly, and Joel saw the morning sun that had just risen from the east, spreading the soft sunlight through the forest branches and leaves, spreading a dappled and wonderful pattern on the ground.

Is it dawn?

This sunshine should be real, right?

Yes, it's definitely true.

Joel had never felt so real, he suddenly remembered what he had experienced before he became a Bloodline, had all these long years been an illusion?

Not far away, a little girl in a white princess dress and small black leather shoes was looking at him with the sun on her back.

He still couldn't feel the slightest bit of the characteristics of "blood", "blood" or "blood beast" from the little girl, and the magic of the elusive ability to blend illusion and reality was no longer something he could understand.

He suddenly had a glimmer of realization.

Looking at the little girl, he struggled to open his mouth: forgive...... me......

But in fact, he couldn't make any sound because of a branch of a tree that looked like a tree root in his mouth.

When the rising sun finally fell on his face, his consciousness began to dissipate, and his body collapsed with it.

Dust to dust.

Soil to earth.
