Chapter 34: The Return

The mutation is finally over.

The source of the anomaly, which is recorded in the ruins of the Institute, is a "complex mental body thinking network" composed of multiple mind snatchers leaked by seals.

It has a preliminary intelligence that is about the same level as the intelligence of a fifteen or sixteen-year-old minor, and in fact, it is not very smart.

However, it still caused great trouble to everyone.

Sensing the existence of another personality in Medea, this mind-body network turned its mind to her. Because the mental body of the main personality is closely connected with its own life and spirit body, the connection of the sub-personality is slightly fragile.

Therefore, after accumulating enough strength, the mental body network teleported the people of the Azure Sword in, and by the way, a part of Medusa's mental body was torn off, intending to use it to replenish his mental body and improve his own IQ.

Then it was polluted by purgatory.

As the so-called daughters of purgatory, the existence of Medea and Medusa itself is under the watchful eye of the will of purgatory all the time, and they are an important interface between purgatory and the main plane, how can they be eaten by a mere mind snatcher?

The result of forcible devouring is anti-devouring, a complex mind-body thinking network composed of a large number of mind-snatchers, which is instantly infused with a large amount of xenomorph energy by purgatory, and in turn turns into the shape of Medusa.

Thoughts are synchronized, wills are assimilated, almost equal to her clones.

If Medusa still retains a masculine fear of Asker, then the psychosomatic network that has inherited this trait may have great kindness towards Asker.

However, contact with this man can no longer cause her pain, so the psychosomatic network decides to get rid of this guy who haunts Medea to some extent, which also shows that Medea is deep down and maintains a considerable hostility towards Asker.

Then he was directly hit by Asker, and the whole process took less than five minutes. Even with the additional bonus of Purgatory, the difference in strength between the two sides is still like a moat.

The above is all the information about this information that Medea got after she got back her mutilated mental body.

The swordsmen of the Richardnell Swordsmen Order, who had previously withdrawn from the hall, also returned to the hall at this time.

Then I saw that the hall was in shambles, with traces of explosions and burning.

Asker sat on the floor, reclining on the desk next to him, and Nou was beside him to help him heal.

Medea is picking up the translucent corpses of the demons all over the ground, crushing one when she picks them up, and is still muttering something about "restoring her mind".

"What are you ......?" asked Hans.

"Solved." Asker said, "The mutation is gone. ”

Swordsmen: ???

We haven't done anything yet! Just spent less than five minutes outside and you guys were done?

Then everyone's hearts buzzed,, worthy of being the chief!

As the bastard son of the demigod teacher, let alone solving this anomaly in a few minutes, the next second he suddenly took out a four-thousand-meter-long broadsword and split the entire town, and everyone would not be surprised.

"Let's go, go explore the last room." With that, Asker led the group deeper into the passage.

In the last hall of the ruins, everyone was amazed to see countless large cocoons of slime hanging from the ceiling.

Each translucent cocoon was covered in sturdy slime, and the person inside had fallen into a coma, and his expression was extremely frightened, as if he had fallen into a nightmare of endless fear.

Exactly like the sleeping inhabitants of the town.

This is obviously also the means of the Mind Flayer, but the purpose is even more obvious: to provide the painful energy of the "Medusa" just now through the torture of endless nightmares.

The swordsmen began to rescue the victims, and Asker took the two girls and quickly searched the last hall.

In a cupboard, the trio found four sealed bottles of Psychic Sequence Potion: two vials of Psychic I and two vials of Psychic II.

"It's not a black face, and it's certainly not very European." Asker commented.

There are a variety of rewards that can be obtained by clearing the dungeon, the worst is money, followed by spiritual materials, which have a relatively high yield.

Then there are finished potions or recipes, which are considered small profits. The best is of course the transcendent item, but the probability is very small, and it is hard to find.

After putting away the potion, the victims in the hall over there were also saved, and Asker even found two old acquaintances from here: Andrea and Matthews, the leaders of the two large mercenary groups actually fell for the mutation, and at this time curled up in the slime like a quail, and his unconscious face was full of horror and pain.

It can be seen that everyone is equal in the face of mutations, whether you are the leader of a high-powered mercenary group or a miscellaneous soldier with no background, what you don't have a good brain is to be finished.

The narrow iron gate that had been split was another obstacle to transporting the victims out of the Institute. After everyone's hard work, everyone was finally transported out.

"You, well done." Outside the iron gate, Richardnell seemed to have recovered, stood up with his sword in hand, and said to Asker.

What about us? The swordsmen burst into tears. We've worked hard, teacher!

However, the biggest credit for this trip is indeed the chief, and everyone can't say anything to fight for merit, so they can only express their joy and sincerity.

Leaving the underground passage, the air cleared, and the fog of the town outside had dissipated without a trace, and it was obvious that with the end of the mutation, everyone, along with the entire town of Luenfeld, had returned to the surface world of the real plane.

The townspeople who were sleeping in the houses also woke up one by one because they were not controlled by the Mind Flayer Thinking Network, and they wandered around the streets in a daze.

It's time to go and meet the rest of the girls, so you can ask someone first.

Asker took a turn on the side of the road and caught a sneaky-looking guy who looked like a mercenary.

Before he could ask, the other party said:

"It is impossible to return the money, and it is impossible to return it in this life. Don't you understand the truth of money and goods? Besides, even if this mutation is over, the code you bought is not impossible to use in similar mutations in the future, if you don't buy it, can you think of such a subtle idea? ”

Asker: ???

"Cipher?" Aske asked, "What code?" ”

"Hey, you're not looking for me to return the goods?" The guy was also clever, and immediately shook off his hand, "Then why are you holding me?" Let's go! Uncle, I'm very busy. ”

The guy ran away as soon as he smoked.

"What's going on with that guy?" Hans asked.

"I don't know." Asker sighed, "That can only be found slowly in the town." ”

"The chief's team is called the Azure Sword, right?" "We can also help ask," Nuremberg said. ”

The victims were housed in the nearest building, and some of Richardnell's swordsmen were left to guard them, while others dispersed to inquire about the location of the Cyan Sword mercenary group.

Anyway, this mutation has ended, so everyone is also very relaxed, and it is right to take a break.

"Hey, the mercenaries over there, have you ever encountered a mercenary group called 'Azure Sword'?"

"The Azure Sword? Haven't heard of it. By the way, have you ever encountered a mercenary group called the 'Iron Ship'? ”

"Iron ships?"

"That group of bastards sold us a code, saying that it was a replica that could deal with this mutation mixed in**, but I didn't expect that it would take us less than 10 minutes to buy it, and this mutation was over! Even the fog has dissipated! We're looking for an Iron Ship Mercenary Group to return it! ”

“………………”

The swordsmen asked all over again, but the Azure Sword Mercenary Group didn't hear about it, but the name of the Iron Ship Mercenary Group was familiar.

However, I finally asked that there was a group of female mercenaries stationed in the church in the center of the town, and considering the gender ratio of the mercenary industry, it was estimated that the girls were not far from ten.

So Aske and Richardnall said goodbye and hurried to the center of the town with Medea and No.
