"Your heart is beating fast all of a sudden. ”
In the dim carriage, Yue Zheng's heart was beating wildly because of the sudden changes in his field of vision, but Xu Liang, the demon slayer opposite him, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at him with scrutiny:
"What's wrong with you?"
Unexpectedly, the other party's reaction was so keen, the corners of Yue Zheng's eyes twitched, and he quickly calmed down:
"No, I'm just trying to remember what I dreamed of in my dreams, but as soon as I think about it, I have palpitations and I can't remember anything. ”
Xu Liang looked at Yue Zheng for a long time, and after making sure that his eyes were clear and there was nothing abnormal, he said lightly:
"This is normal, you should have heard the words of Deputy Lieutenant Tiger, it is not easy to resist the invasion of those things with your spiritual will, although you were lucky enough to escape, but there is a chance that your spirit has been damaged, as long as you rest and recuperate, you should be able to recover soon." ”
"Understood. ”
Yue Zheng nodded, bowed his head and remained silent.
Seeing this, Xu Liang also closed his eyes, and the carriage was quiet again.
Only Yue Zheng's mood was diametrically opposed to this quiet atmosphere.
At this moment, in his sight, the auxiliary panel still existed, making his heart turbulent:
It's not an illusion!
He didn't notice that only I could see this panel!
The reason for Yue Zheng's crossing is that he is suspected of dying in front of the computer because of the liver game, and the magical panel that appears in his field of vision now is very similar to the character panel in that hardcore Xianxia game.
He really didn't expect that this auxiliary panel would jump out of front of him inexplicably at this moment!
"Is this auxiliary panel real or fake?"
Trying his best to calm down, Yue Zheng, whose imagination was greatly expanded, faintly realized something and made a bold conjecture:
"Could it be...... It's just like in the game?"
Yue Zheng, who had gone through so many things, was now unprecedentedly receptive, and he didn't think about why this magical panel would follow him through at all, but reacted immediately, but he wanted to find out if the effect of this thing was as he thought!
"Appeal --!"
However, at this time, the driving demon slayer interrupted Yue Zheng's thoughts with a low shout, and the carriage that was driving at the same time slowly stopped.
"It's here. ”
Yue Zheng's heart moved, the data panel in front of him dissipated, and Xu Liang, who was in the carriage with his eyes closed, opened his eyes, opened the door and stepped out of the carriage as soon as possible.
Knowing that he had arrived at his destination, in a hurry, Yue Zheng could only temporarily resist the urgency of the research panel and followed the carriage.
The place where the carriage stopped was in front of a cold and heavy stone castle, and at the door, two soldiers equipped with long-barreled rifles were guarding, and after seeing Xu Liang and the other two demon slayers, they saluted one after another, and then looked at Yue Zheng vigilantly.
"This is the observation room of the Demon Slayer Hall, come with us. ”
The masked demon slayer who drove the car spoke in a cold and hard tone, and took the lead into the stone steps leading to the underground of the stone castle, Yue Zheng followed behind, and soon entered the semi-underground observation room.
The interior of the observation room was dimly lit, and there was a cold atmosphere all around. In Yue Zheng's view, it was more of a small prison than an observation room, because there were only four relatively spacious cells separated from the four corners of the room by steel railings the thickness of children's arms, but there was not a single prisoner in it.
With a clang, when he walked to the innermost cell, Xu Liang opened the heavy cell door with the key, and his eyes signaled:
"The conditions may be a little rudimentary, you need to be wronged to stay here for a few days, we will send someone to bring you food and water regularly. ”
Now Yue Zheng couldn't wait to be alone, he walked directly into the cell, and waited until Xu Liang locked it before asking, "So, how long am I going to stay here?"
"Don't worry, you won't have to wait too long. ”
Xu Liang smiled and said meaningfully:
"Your condition has been reported, and someone will come to you soon to do a psychological and physical assessment. It's rare for an ordinary person like you to be able to resist pollution, which is a testament to your potential. If the next assessment is correct, you may even have the opportunity to join the Demon Slayer Hall and become one of our colleagues. ”
Can it be like this?
The Demon Slayer Hall is obviously the organization to which these powerful Demon Slayer belong, but he really didn't expect that there would be such a possibility of development, Yue Zheng couldn't help but be stunned.
He was originally worried about whether these people would be unfavorable to himself who had already undergone a mutation, and even secretly thought about how to get out of the predicament, but now it seems that the handling of these people is a little different from what he thinks.
"Don't rejoice too soon, boy. The premise of all this is that your breathing level can always suppress the abnormalities in your body. ”
At this time, the demon slayer beside Xu Liang with a mask and gloomy eyebrows stared directly at the eye-like traces on Yue Zheng's eyebrows, and suddenly said faintly:
"If I'm not mistaken, the place where you have changed is actually an eye, right? In my opinion, you'd better not let that eye on your forehead open on its own, or you'll ...... Hehe......"
The other party's words were full of warnings, and Yue Zheng's eyes couldn't help but stare at him: "What do you mean?"
The mask demon slayer's tone was hoarse and weird:
"The harm of those things is far from being that simple. We've had many cases where a slight mutation like yours seems to have stopped, but it's only temporary. Because the contamination of those things is almost irreversible and will stay with a person for the rest of their lives.
The polluted and mutated body tissue is like a cancer, without the suppression of high-level breathing methods, it will lie on your body and absorb life nutrients little by little, develop and grow, and then begin to erode and spread throughout your body, until it swallows your whole person and turns you into a completely crazy monster!"
The mutation is irreversible and will continue to develop and even erode the whole body......
The mask demon slayer's tone was cold, exuding a hint of weirdness, and after hearing these words, Yue Zheng's temples twitched slightly, and he felt a terrifying taste.
The original owner's identity was just an ordinary night watchman, and he didn't seem to know anything about it. He really didn't expect that there was such a terrifying danger in the third eye on his eyebrows!
Xu Liang on the side frowned: "Ghost teeth!"
The demon slayer called Devil Fang laughed, "What's the matter? he'll find out sooner or later anyway, can we keep it a secret from him?"
At this time, Yue Zheng grasped some information from Ghost Fang's previous words, and asked in a deep voice: "So, as long as you reach the high level of the breathing method, you can control the development of the abnormal change to the greatest extent and avoid completely turning into a monster?"
"Generally speaking, that's right, the basic breathing method junior high school and senior three stages, you have to at least reach the advanced level first, and now you are still a little far behind. ”
I didn't expect Yue Zheng, who knew the news, to be so calm, and the ghost tooth smiled:
"Boy, you're lucky, but you're also unlucky. Generally speaking, ordinary people who encounter this kind of thing have almost no chance of survival, but you survive, and this is your luck. ”
"Unfortunately, from now on, the lives of ordinary people will no longer be relevant to us, and we will be in fear and trembling day and night, doing everything we can to stop the spread of pollution on our bodies. ”
As he spoke, Ghost Fang suddenly took off the mask on his mouth and nose, and showed Yue Zheng a sympathetic smile:
“...... Welcome to the Short-lived Ghost Society!"
Yue Zheng's pupils contracted suddenly.
Because of such a close distance, he clearly saw that after the mask was removed, the mouth of the ghost tooth, and even the tongue, were all covered with narrow and sharp white fangs, just like a bloodthirsty demon!
......
The sound of footsteps disappeared, the cold moonlight shone in through the high iron window, and in the dimly lit prison, Yue Zheng sat quietly on the cold hard bed, like a cold sculpture.
At this moment, Xu Liang and Ghost Tooth, the two demon slayers, had already left.
He raised his hand, feeling the third eye that seemed to fall silent in the center of his eyebrows, and his heart was cold:
"It turns out that that ghost fang, like the original owner of this body, is a person who has undergone a mutation, no wonder he always wears a mask......"
I have to say that the terrifying scene of the ghost fang uncovering the mask just now brought a lot of impact to Yue Zheng's heart.
He realized that this ghost fang was probably the same as him, a survivor who had regained his senses after experiencing an out-of-control alienation event, but the parts of their mutations were different.
"In a dream, it is possible to go crazy out of control, and even if you are lucky enough to survive, you will be polluted and alienated, and gradually become something that is neither human nor ghost...... This world is like a horror movie world, and there is no hope of going back until now......"
With a thick haze that lingered in his heart, Yue Zheng closed his eyes and thought a lot.
He remembered his parents in another time and space, the hard but fulfilling work in that time and space, and the life of all kinds of convenience, entertainment, and no need to worry about the safety of his life......
But all of this flashed like a flower, and when Yue Zheng opened his eyes again, there was only determination and determination left in his eyes:
"Before we find a way to go back, we must first find a way to live!
"For me, the biggest threat right now is this eye on my brow...... According to Ghost Fang's words, this thing is like a tumor, which will develop and grow subtly, and only the breathing method can effectively suppress it. ”
"So ......"
Yue Zheng took a deep breath and immediately repeated his behavior of concentrating on the carriage and trying to cultivate the basic breathing method, and then-
Swish!
The next moment, the magical panel that seemed to be a game assistant jumped out of front of his eyes again:
Pneumatic power: 1.2
Physique: 1.2
Sensitivity: 1.1
Spirit: 1.3
Skills:
[Primary Breathing Method (Xiaocheng)], Effect: Strength +0.2, Physique +0.2, Agility +0.1, Spirit +0.3
[Destiny Points]: 9
"Destiny Points...... It's not an illusion, it's the auxiliary panel in the game!"
The auxiliary panel appeared in front of him, and Yue Zheng's heart beat faster.
This auxiliary panel was originally all in the hardcore idle Xianxia game he played before he crossed over.
In that idle game, the character has no level, and the attributes and combat power are mainly supported by a variety of active and passive exercise skills, and the same type of exercise skills can also be synthesized with each other to advance, but the hardcore is that no matter how high or low the skill level is, it takes a long time to hang up to accumulate proficiency, so as to improve the realm level.
The Mandate of Heaven points are very scarce in the game, and they can only be obtained by relying on the death of the liver, and the main role is to ignore the requirements of skill proficiency and directly improve the realm level of the exercise skills on the panel. Including the remaining 9 Destiny Points on the panel now, that is also Yue Zheng's desperate liver explosion for a long time to accumulate.
"The primary breathing method on the panel should be what the original owner himself knows..... Let's see if the function of the panel is the same as I thought it would be!"
Recalling the function of the auxiliary panel, Yue Zheng took a deep breath excitedly, concentrated with all his strength, and began to study carefully.
Needless to say, the four attributes of strength, physique, agility, and spirit are nothing more than the panel showing his physical qualities in the form of data, and after Yue Zheng tried a few times, he unsurprisingly found that just like in the game, he couldn't directly change these values.
And when he shifted his attention to the column of the breathing method under the exercise skill, he immediately found that there was obviously a small + sign on this column!
"And so it was. ”
Naturally knowing the meaning of the plus sign, Yue Zheng's heart beat faster, and then he didn't hesitate to concentrate on that little plus sign.
Airplanes!
In an instant, Yue Zheng first felt the auxiliary panel flicker violently, and then he felt an inexplicable heat flow erupt from the deepest part of his body, spreading throughout his body at an extremely fast speed, and it felt as if his whole person was suddenly in a hot spring!
At the same time, in Yue Zheng's sight, the data on the auxiliary panel also became:
Pneumatic power: 1.4
Physique: 1.4
Sensitivity: 1.3
Spirit: 1.5
Skills:
[Primary Breathing Method (Dacheng)], Effect: Strength +0.4, Physique +0.4, Agility +0.3, Spirit +0.5
[Remaining Destiny Points]: 8
The Destiny point is a little less, and other data shows that they have improved to varying degrees, Yue Zheng looked at the auxiliary panel in a daze, and then raised his hands as if he had just woken up from a dream, and waved his fist fiercely.
In the whirring wind, he could clearly feel that after the inexplicable heat flow in his body emerged, he only felt that his mind was clear, his energy was more energetic, his reaction was faster, and his strength seemed to be significantly greater than before.
All of this seems to be completely in line with the improvement of the stats such as strength and physique on the auxiliary panel!
"It can really be ......"
At this moment, in the cold and dim prison, Yue Zheng, who had been walking on thin ice and cautious since the crossing, finally laughed silently.
