Chapter 100: Escape
"Hound ......" The two male students slumped to the ground trembling, as if they had lost all the strength of their bodies.
Maria was still vomiting uncomfortably, unaware that some horrible evil creature crawled out along the sharp angles of her body.
Then a long tongue popped out of the hound's mouth and pierced through Maria's body, causing her vomiting to stop abruptly in her throat. Her body seemed to stiffen for a moment, falling into the same hazy state, as if it had been eroded by the anomaly of the Spirit Tree.
Then he was dragged into the void by something.
"Ahh Seeing Maria disappear suddenly, the two male students got up and ran to the door with a wailing cry as if they had just woken up from a dream, and banged in vain.
"It's a hound!!"
"Let us out!!"
"Open the door!!"
Mia was speechless to them. You are shouting "there are hounds" here, even if there are people outside, where do you dare to open the door for us?
The "hound" made of hazy mist, with its two slender and strange forelimbs falling to the ground, the long tube in its mouth swallowed up like a snake letter, pointing in the direction of Mia and the two male students.
Mia's fingers moved slightly, and her shadow suddenly elongated strangely, wrapping along the hound's forelimbs in an instant.
Wrapped up in the air.
When the shadow tried to strangle its front legs, it sank into it like chopsticks poking into a tofu block, as if the hound was really made of invisible mist.
But have you ever seen a fog that walks, attacks people, and drags people into the void?
In the off-screen monitoring room, the clergy looked at the strange scenes in the script and discussed and commented on each other:
"The premise of this script is very interesting, hounds are creatures that live in a discrete time and space, so their bodies are also discrete."
"Imagine how a knife kills a person? It cuts open the human **, disrupts the continuity of biological tissues, makes it disordered and unable to carry out normal physiological activities. However, the premise of all this is that the biological tissue must be continuous. ”
"If there are such creatures, whose bodies are made up of discrete matter, then any physical attack in our world will not have an effect on them - in the final analysis, the so-called physical attack is just an attempt to disrupt the continuum of the other party."
"Like the mutation of the Spirit Tree? Can be observed, but can't interfere? ”
"That's right, just like a low-dimensional world tries to interfere with a high-dimensional world."
The clergyman's discussion ceased abruptly, as Bishop Chino began to sneer, a smile that did not warm enough to make the clergymen feel that they had said the wrong thing, and they all fell silent and began to pretend to return to work.
Valyan ...... Bishop Chino looked down at the lab, his heart filled with the pleasure of a certain calculated success: you must know that the group of transcendents you have brought with you without any scientific literacy is absolutely unfit to join our ranks of the clergy.
I admit that they are very capable of fighting and can protect the Holy See from external threats during the rising tide. But they don't even have basic scientific literacy! How can you allow these illiterate people to lead the ranks of intellectuals?! It's as ridiculous as having a worker command an engineer!
In the laboratory, everyone who looked at the monitoring screen had also realized that the strange hound in the script was similar to the high-dimensional creature encountered in the previous mutation - to be exact, more difficult than the high-dimensional creature, because Mia's shadow ability did not seem to work on it, and there were no other companions around her.
"What should I do?" Valyan asked with concern, "Do you want to abort the script?" ”
"No, you don't." Asker replied.
"Actually, the key to this script is not to repel the hounds." Sheila analyzed on the sidelines, "Instead, you have to try to sense the law ritual." ”
"Regarding the perception of the law of black holes, the secret should be in the characteristics of the hound itself, that is, I don't know if Mia knows it at this time."
"But if you get caught by a hound, the script will be forced to end, right?" Nora asked worriedly.
"That's right." Sheila said, "So you need to delay and prolong your survival in the dungeon." ”
As she spoke, she saw Mia flick the shadow with her backhand, snatching the two schoolboys from the ground, and then letting the shadow "devour" the door of the room and rush out.
The shadow was quickly pulled away from the door again, and the hound looked indifferently in the direction of the door, and the figure gradually disappeared into thin air. It had no way to move through the entity in a continuous world, so it had to return to the shattered plane of time and space, and then continue to follow the three prey.
As long as there is an angle of less than 120 degrees around these prey, the hound can cross out of the space-time rift again at any time.
Passing through the gate, there is an empty indoor plaza outside, with multiple corridors leading in other directions, all of which have been designed as special structures without any edges and corners.
"Let's split up!" Mia threw the two male students on the ground and yelled.
"Wait, what kind of ability was that?" John came back to his senses in horror and asked, "Why can you manipulate shadows?" Are you a ghoul? Or the Archauntes? ”
"I'm your mother!" Mia scolded impatiently, and then rushed out in an instant.
The two male students looked at each other and hurriedly ran in the direction she had left, apparently with the intention of acting together...... It's just that they completely underestimated the speed of Illania's instantaneous step, and they didn't see each other's backs after chasing for a long time.
In order to completely eliminate all the horns, this bulky protective suit is worn on the body, which makes it very difficult for them to move at this time.
For example, in order to prevent the formation of angles under the armpits, the clothes are designed with elastic membranes in that position, connecting the arms to the sides of the body, like flying squirrels gliding in the jungle.
For example, in order to prevent the hands and feet from touching the wall and the ground to form an angle, the gloves and foot covers are all spherical, making everyone feel like Doraemon. It can only be said that this suit only pays attention to safety protection, and does not consider the convenience of movement at all, so that the two male students quickly ran out of physical strength.
Joshua stopped panting, subconsciously trying to bend down to breathe a sigh of relief, but the inflatable frame inside the garment did not allow him to bend over, so he could only stand there and rest for a while, and complained to John, who came from behind:
"Where did Miria go? Also, when did you say the professor would come back? ”
"If we leave the base directly, won't the professor be able to find us when he comes back?" John offered another possibility.
The two male students looked at each other, each reading horror in the other's eyes.
Instinct drove them to continue chasing Miria away from the terrible room behind them where hounds had once appeared; But reason told them that they should stay in this specially designed underground base and wait for the professor's follow-up rescue, so that the final survival rate would be higher.
What to do?
While they were wandering, Mia had already run like a headless fly with her heavy clothes on her head, to a place that even she didn't know.
"What is this?" She was almost covered in sweat, her bangs were soaked with sweat, but she couldn't wipe it through the protective clothing, it was wet and sticky and uncomfortable.
No matter! After a few minutes of hesitation, Mia decided to take off this dress!
It's better to quit the script than to live here!
