Unfortunately, it is not yet possible to develop equipment to prevent mental pollution.

Luo Zixuan stared at the chaotic scene at the scene, and opened his mouth to convey his words into the communicator inside the soldiers' helmets.

Incentives from the gods of the machine have somewhat prevented the sanity of the believers from continuing to descend into madness.

When the spiritual pollution index reaches a certain level, believers will begin to see the abyss.

And there are very few people who can see the abyss directly through their minds without being eroded.

For the abyss will stare at you in the same way until it drives you insane.

The abyss is a concept.

The concept that exists in both the new and old universes.

Perhaps there is no god in the abyss, or perhaps the god of the abyss is the abyss itself.

It creeps in and erodes reality, just like a natural phenomenon.

The more frequent the activity of the Old Gods, the more severe the spread of the Abyss.

However, no evidence was found that the ancient gods originated in the abyss, so Luo Zixuan did not support this speculation.

How to fight against mental attacks has always been a serious issue.

And Luo Zixuan saw the advancement of mechanical civilization from this problem.

Mechanical creatures don't easily fall into madness.

Extreme madness can only be fought with extreme rationality.

Siliconization, in Luo Zixuan's view, is the best way out.

The situation finally stabilized as the monsters fell one by one.

Their regenerative power is strong, but it is not unlimited.

From this battle, Luo Zixuan gathered a lot of information about the Nightmare God, and judged that it had indeed just recovered.

The Nightmare Creations he sent out during this battle were extremely low in strength compared to those in their Strength state.

Take, for example, the smiling humanoid monster — a creature called a smiling zombie. It belongs to one of the weakest low-level units of the Nightmare God system, but when the Nightmare God's strength is normal, it can kill countless unarmed humans at will.

This is true even if humans fight together.

Because the body of a smiling zombie will crack itself.

When humans have no weapons and only use their fists and feet, every move they make will not be able to successfully hit the surface of the smiling zombie's body.

Because, they will fall directly into the skin of the mouth that is cracked and full of sharp teeth. Then it was bitten off.

Even, after stabbing the bodies of these smiling zombies with a sword blade of average strength, you will find that the weapon either cannot be pulled out or is directly broken.

Because, after the smiling zombie was pierced by you, countless sharp teeth were instantly transformed into the edge of the wound that fit the blade in the body.

They will bite, jam, and try to break the blade.

Even if you don't keep it, it's extremely dangerous for the blade wielder. Because when he can't pull out the weapon, he may show a fatal flaw because of panic, and his head will be bitten off by a smiling zombie.

This trick is called "admiring its smile up close" by a certain race

Of course, all of the above traits are only available when the Nightmare God's strength returns to normal.

If it was in its heyday, it would be far more powerful than that.

This is just one of the lowest creations of the Nightmare God. Only slightly stronger than the mere flesh polymers on the outside of the tunnel.

This is one of the reasons why Luo Zixuan believes that the ancient gods must not be taken lightly.

The strength of the Seven Ancient Gods is difficult to explain simply, as their performance is always high and low.

However, in general, it can be considered that the lower limit is the degree of the god of the void, and the upper limit will surpass the supreme god.

Disgusting flesh.

Luo Zixuan watched as his followers killed the last smiling zombie's turnout mutant and began to attack the meat ball, falling into a brief thought.

He's assessing the threat that might come next.

Through calculations, Luo Zixuan reminded the believers that the enemy was currently in a state of merging with this entire flesh space, so be careful of any area with flesh walls.

Including the feet, they can be within the enemy's attack range.

This reminder is very timely.

If it weren't for the oracle of the mechanical god, in the next moment, the investigation team of the mechanical god cult would be wiped out, except for Neil, who reacted extremely quickly.

The ball of flesh suddenly erupted from all over its body with a large number of tentacles.

At the same time, it also cracked a large hole in the top that spewed black mist.

The flesh and blood around the body, which was originally opaque, now became transparent.

At the bottom of the skin, which is like a layer of transparent gelatin, a large amount of densely embedded eyeball material can be clearly seen.

As the Mechanics felt their scalps tingle for a moment, it suddenly accompanied by a roar that instantly distorted the terrain beneath the area where the team was standing.

The members of the team formed in an arc and set fire to the last remaining nightmare creation.

However, a large mouth with a surface area large enough to cover them all began to emerge from the surrounding ground, and the flesh beneath their feet began to sink and collapse rapidly along with black smoke!

The speed of transformation is extremely fast.

If they don't react, they will fall into the jaw, and then be pierced to death by countless sharp teeth as they close.

The crowd staggered to the edge of the maw, and at the last moment managed to leap to their feet, jumping out of the range of the maw.

Although two of them fell, they were rescued by Neil one after another, and they were not shredded by the fiercely closed jaw.

Then, in an instant, the flesh balls full of eyeballs under the skin began to swing and slap at the cultists with huge tentacles.

The cultists also began to burrow tentacles around them, trying to entangle and impale them.

The black mist spewed out by the monster seriously affected the vision.

Although the monsters began to weaken rapidly under the concentrated fire of the people, the believers were impaled to death one after another because they could not dodge the tentacles that attacked from all directions.

Eventually, by the time Neil charged up yelling "For the Mechanics' slogan" and slashing his sword to the death of his dying foe, the team had suffered heavy casualties, leaving only five of the original ten-man squad.
