1288 Falling into a dream
What kind of attack is this? While the conditions for triggering the attack can be somewhat guessed after recalling previous encounters, there are more unclear factors. The window, which should not have been closed, shattered the glass when it broke in, and the headless reflection in the glass looked like an omen, but it was not the body that caused the damage. Besides...... I looked up at the hospital room, at the room we were in, and I didn't know if the gel monster had been cleaned up by the old man. The old man voluntarily broke off, but no one seemed to observe what kind of power he used and what effect he achieved. Although he has introduced his abilities, it is still unclear exactly how he will use them.
Although there are so many confusing situations, this is one of the most common situations in mysterious events, so it doesn't feel like there's anything wrong with it. Because it is a "mysterious" battle, it is the danger brought by "mystery", so although we hope to be able to gain insight into the truth, if there is really no truth, or, for various reasons, there is no way to understand the truth, it is understandable and acceptable.
In the strange attack, the old man died and everyone was wounded, and the result was not good. Facing an unclear enemy, as well as a foggy situation, also brings extreme uneasiness. Even if the team is not very harmonious7ยค, the death of a team member is often reminiscent of his own death, which in turn brings a strong sense of fear. However, this kind of uneasiness and fear is only commonplace for a mysterious expert who has been walking in mysterious events for many years and has been through many battles.
Suppressing all one's negative emotions and confronting inexplicable events that seem to be full of luck is the life of a mysterious expert. If it weren't for that, the chances of death for the newcomers who had entered the "mystery" would not be so great. And the mystical experts I've met don't like a game of testing their luck with coins.
Unpredictable, weird, deadly...... These things are like black smoke that wraps around us. Even so, there are reasons to move forward. Although everyone's reasons may be different. However, everyone should have a reason to stand in this place and face this pressure. I have seen many people who come into contact with the "mystery" either be killed by the "mysterious" or commit suicide because they can't bear the pressure, but these people around me are not so "immature" guys, and they will definitely not be scared because of the previous nine deaths.
"Survived." Anna pulled out a coin and threw it away. She glanced at the results and laughed happily, "Sure enough, my luck is still there." โ
"That's the power of deviation is strong enough." Turner said angrily.
"Come on, Turner. You and I both know that the power of deviation is the most full of luck. Anna shrugged her shoulders and ripped her tattered clothes off. The previous attack nearly severed her spine. Of course, the clothes were also cut through huge openings, and the straps on the back of the underwear were severed. With a nonchalant face, she ripped off her bra and crumpled it with her clothes, and threw it on the ground at random.
Turner listened to her words, and only sighed deeply, without rebutting. I have a special look at the bold posture of my companions. However, the face of the third-level demon pattern messenger boy was a little stiff and ashamed, and his eyes flickered, unable to look directly at this half-naked mature female companion. The connector crouched aside to inspect the glass shards on the ground, ignoring what was happening here.
Although Anna may not really care, I took off my patient gown and handed it to Anna. Anna is in good shape. That's not a reason why she should be naked, though. Of course, I don't quite understand why she stripped naked, and although those clothes were destroyed, they did not reach the point where she could not cover her body, but rather hindered her movement. Probably just a matter of personal preference, that's all I can say.
"Oh, thank you, Mr. Takakawa." Anna seemed to come over suddenly, took her clothes and put them on, but the tone of her thanks was not too passionate, like a social language that was only spoken out of politeness.
Turner seemed to see through my mind and said to me, "Anna is a celestial. โ
I can't understand what it means to be "naturist".
"Advocating natural**, liberating inner constraints...... That's probably the way it looks. Turner shrugged and said, "Actually, I don't really understand, because I've never thought about why people wear clothes, and what the difference is between people wearing clothes and not wearing clothes." For most people, it is a matter of course for people to wear clothes. But there is a group of people like Anna who will think about the reasons and come to the conclusion that it is better to wear no clothes than to wear clothes. โ
"So, Anna doesn't really like to wear clothes?" I say.
"Yes, you wear clothes just to socialize." Anna interjected that she didn't have any special affection for us two big men to talk about, even though it was her own situation that was being talked about. She said to me: "I know that many people, both men and women, always think of sexually convenient things when facing naked women, but this is not the whole meaning of ** - I am also determined to let people understand more of the meaning of **, as well as the inspiration of their own human nature, but I will not feel embarrassed and annoyed because the other party thinks of sex in the first place, because it will only seem narrow and deny the objective meaning of ** as a sexual symbol." Of course, if Mr. Takakawa sees my ** and wants to delve into the topic of sexuality and practice it himself, I personally welcome it. With that, she glanced at her companion Turner and the third-level demonic messenger boy who was dodging in his eyes, and said, "Forget about the other two men, they don't fit my habits." โ
"Don't take your sexual fetishes for granted, you ** poisoner." Turner said with a-eating look on his face, and I think Anna's words reminded him of some of his own unbearable past.
"Before we talk about getting laid, I think you guys should take a look at this." The connector said without any emotion, and when we turned to look, she was picking up a piece of glass. However, the shiny fragments turned into powder in her hands and scattered in the air in an instant. As if in order to get rid of the embarrassment, the third-level demon messenger boy quickly left Anna's side, squatted on the ground and picked up a piece of glass, and after it turned into powder, he dipped the powder with his fingers and put it in his mouth.
"It's salt." He said with some surprise.
"Yes. Salt. "In the occult, salt is a sacred substance that drives away evil, but at certain times it also changes its mind and becomes a symbol of fear. โ
"Odorless water, after mixing with salt. Although the color has not changed, the taste has changed. People see it as an essential change, which seems to be the same on the outside, but completely different on the inside. It's like a human body, where there is something opposite to a human being, an anomalous foreign object. Anna nodded and said, "But what does this mean mean for our current situation?" You should be clear that mystery is not occultism. Although the two may seem similar, if you look at the mystery exactly according to the interpretation of the occult, you will only get the wrong result. โ
"Yes, the mystery cannot be viewed exactly as the occult explains. The occult also can't really explain the mystery. But the reason why those of us delve into the occult is such an act is whether it is instinctively motivated. Or the direction of thinking, there must be a reason. Occultists study the occult. And subconsciously in the mystical events, associated with the occult, such cases can be more than one or two cases, enough to prove that although the occult cannot really explain the mystery, it can at least bring enlightenment. The connector said.
"Are you educating anyone about the basics? There's no one here who is new to the mystery. "Turner was also a little upset." What exactly are you trying to say? โ
Everyone is waiting to see if the connector has made some inferences based on the current clues. However, the connector was silent for a long time, but said, "Ah. No, it's just a spur of the moment, just talk about it. I didn't find anything. Such an answer was so blunt that it contradicted her previous appearance, and no one in the audience believed her.
"So, are you trying to remind us that the enemy has something to do with salt?" The third-level demon pattern envoy boy said, "Only like this? โ
"No, she's trying to get us to think in the direction of salt." Anna suddenly said, "Cyberball guy, although I don't understand why you are doing this, but if it makes me feel malicious, I will kill you as soon as possible." โ
These words were full of anger, but when the connector heard this, he only smiled slightly and said, "Okay, wait for you at any time." โ
Having just emerged from a crisis, the atmosphere is starting to get a little sinister again.
While the talk of "salt" raised by glass seems to be helpful in the analysis of the current situation, I am concerned about something elseโno rain, no lightning and thunder, and the environment seems to be a little too bright, not as gloomy as the storm that preceded it. We jumped out of the window of the ward, not to mention the anomaly of "breaking glass", obviously looking out from the ward, the outside world was stormy, but after we really came out, there was no sign of getting wet at all.
When I realized this, the scene seemed to change dramatically. It should have been a manicured lawn all around, with a long driveway that extended into the woods and led to the rest of the world. But such a scenery suddenly turned into a mountain scene with lush vegetation and rugged rocks. The ward is still there, but it looks like we've been moved somewhere else with us.
And this mountain scenery is full of familiarity to me. When I looked up, the sky was no longer raining, but the sparks and ashes were falling like snow, and the sphere hanging in the sky was supposed to be the moon, but at this time, it gave people the intuitive feeling that it was something else. It was suspended in the distance in the distance in a huge, heavy, unsettling posture, and its whole body was red, as if it had been cut out, and it was bleeding continuously.
"I think we're in trouble." I can't help but say. Because, this is the nightmare of the deepest night, not the "reality" of the Peninsula Psychiatric Hospital. The moment we jumped out of the window, something happened on the level of consciousness. So, what kind of force is dragging us into a nightmare? Is it a drug attack of oneself, or is someone else acting as a yellow sparrow? While we are in this nightmare, are we safe in the Peninsula Psychiatric Hospital?
These questions, without leaving the nightmare, are simply impossible to determine. Or, the moment that can be identified in this nightmare is the moment of death.
The others also noticed that something was wrong and looked around. The third-level Demon Pattern Emissary boy seemed to understand something, and said with some astonishment: "We were attacked by the Consciousness Walker? โ
The transformed scene in front of them was obviously incompatible with their perception of the "real environment", and they also remembered what they and others had experienced before. This shift is acceptable if explained by the mystery of consciousness. If it was a whole person, with the sick building, being sent out of the peninsula and into the mountains and forests of nowhere, it would be incredible.
"It's the deepest night." I said. Compared to the nightmare Las Vegas and the ghost nightmare, this nightmare on the peninsula has never had a clear name, but if it is referred to as "deep night", it seems quite appropriate to me. Moreover, since the remaining four people have intelligence sources behind them, I naturally don't need to worry about whether they know what the "Deepest Night" is.
Sure enough, when I said the words "the deepest night", everyone's expressions also changed slightly.
"I can finally understand what a disqualified patient is." The connector suddenly said, "Disqualified patients actually refer to those who are unable to enter the deep night. Before today, I really couldn't get into this nightmare of the deepest night. What about you? She looked at the others.
"Me too." Turner nodded. Soon, everyone admitted that they did possess such characteristics. Although it is true that some of the people here have taken new drugs, or rather, have deliberately taken new drugs, none of them have the same reaction as other patients. So much so that they used to think that the new drugs at the seminar were completely ineffective on their own.
"Now, it doesn't seem to be completely useless." The connector spoke as if to herself, her voice was small, but I still heard it. This sound, like a shock wave, has a specific fluctuation and source in the chain judgment.
"Are you really sure?" Others were not as sure as she was, and asked suspiciously, "Is the disqualified patient the one who cannot enter the deep night?" "The question is about how much the seminar knows about the deep night? And how do you think about the deepest night? Because, in the eyes of us occult experts, the night of the night is definitely not a "good phenomenon". (To be continued......)
