Chapter 268, Heart Demon
Calristo didn't interject in the discussion between Xiao Yan and them, but lowered his head and looked for something on the ground. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 When Xiao Yan asked why that creature was secretly attacking, the female trialist raised her head and whispered, "Maybe I already know why this guy wants to create this illusion. ”
In her hand, a white flagella was swaying slightly in the light of the fire.
"It needs us to panic, it needs us to be unable to restrain ourselves, even to kill each other, just like those people in this cave once did, to sacrifice a lot of flesh and blood to bring it back to life."
Calristo watched as the flagella in his hand was ablated by the firelight, and continued in a low voice, "However, flesh and blood are not enough, this bastard still needs to make some men to spread its filth out." ”
Xiao Yan frowned and asked, "Mutant life?" ”
Calristo nodded and said, "That's right, to create mutant life. ”
Looking at the somewhat confused look on Xiao Yan's face, Calristo continued: "The school textbook once roughly said that there were two possibilities for the emergence of mutant life. One is body modification, which directly emburishes the source of infection in the body of ** life. The other is Jing God Pollution, which creates a heart demon in the target's Jing God mind, and if the target can't defeat the heart demon alone, then the target's Jing God will also be chaotic, and eventually mutate into a primordial mutant life without a source of infection. ”
After a pause, Calisto continued: "The so-called proto-mutated life is the mother of those mutated lifeforms, and this proto-mutated life will create a new mutated source crystal in its own brain for a certain period of time. ”
"And this kind of mutation source crystal created by the mutant life itself is the most delicious food for the absurd demons. In history, every time a demon appeared in the real world, it always had to cultivate a large number of original mutant life forms through this kind of inner demon. ”
When Xiao Yan heard this, he suddenly remembered the withered female corpses in the wasteland trial world, as well as the mutated mothers who remained tiny in the face of death, including the insects in their blood. In addition, those blood-stained mutation source crystals also flashed through Xiao Yan's mind.
At the same time, he had a faint hunch that there might also be a demon access point in the so-called leaked nuclear bunker, and most of the corpses he saw in the process of leaving the leaked nuclear bunker were inextricably related to the demon access point.
In the process, he seemed to think of something, but this feeling was too subtle, and now was not the time to think about it, so he could only shake his head slightly, leaving all these distractions behind.
"You mean, there's a demon hiding here? It wants to be resurrected by devouring our flesh? ”
In response to Xiao Yan's question, Calisto shook his head and said: "No, there is no demon here, at least not a living demon, it traps us, and of course wants to devour our flesh and blood, but the real purpose is most likely to want us to become original mutant beings." Only when we become a mutant life of the original and leave this cave can we bring more food to it, especially if its infection around this fortress has been interrupted by us and its food source has been cut off. ”
Xiao Yan frowned and whispered: "If it could implant the source of mutation in our body, I'm afraid it would have already done it, and now it can only trap us with this illusion, obviously trying to use the inner demon to infect us through the latter way." ”
Calisto nodded and said, "That's right, when a person's heart is frightened, weak, confused, desperate, and anxious, it is when the demons are most likely to invade, and this illusion gives us these pressures to force us into this environment. ”
After a pause, Calisto continued, "Still, that's what I want. ”
Looking at Xiao Yan's strange appearance, Calisto smiled slightly, and she whispered, "I want to implant inner demons, and every trialist will always encounter these, sooner or later." ”
Xiao Yan thought about it and nodded. Just like Karisto said, sooner or later, the Awakened will have to fight those demons, and the battle with their own demons is also a matter of time, rather than waiting until the future when they are at a loss and ignorance to fight their own demons, it is better to have a rehearsal in advance now. At least the next time you meet the demons, you can better protect yourself.
It's just that such a reason is too far-fetched, and if you want to fight the inner demons, you can do it in a safer place, rather than in the current underground cavern.
"The important thing," said Calisto, "is to better please Uctrashil by defeating the demons of the heart." Until then, defeating the demon has given me more control over my equipment, and I hope that after defeating the demon, Yggdrasil will be able to completely unblock me, so that I can play a greater role in future battles. ”
After hearing this, Xiao Yan nodded slightly, and no longer made any dissuasion to Calisto. The female trialist was equally long-term, and apparently, she seemed to be prepared for how to overcome her demons.
"How can I be invaded by demons?"
Listening to Xiao Yan's question, Calisto smiled again, closed his eyes, and muttered to himself in a low voice: "There are many ways to be invaded by the heart demon, you can choose at will. Of course, the most suitable thing right now is to reduce all of your Jing Shen Resistance and reduce it across the board. Plunge yourself into chaos and restlessness, and demons will automatically appear in your Jing Shen sense. ”
At this point, Calisto's voice had become very muffled, and it was soft and lackluster. At that moment, Xiao Yan vaguely felt that all the gods of the female trialist seemed to be suddenly empty, and the Calristo in front of him was no longer a trialist, but an ordinary human female xing.
Xiao Yan turned his head to look at Laikaon, I don't know when, Laikaon had already drawn his double-edged axe and stared at his sister calmly, there was something crystal shining in his eyes.
Xiao Yan asked, "There doesn't seem to be anything here that can threaten Calisto, right?" Need to be so vigilant? ”
Lecaon looked at his sister calmly, and after a while, he said, "I'm not aware of the threat to Calristo from the outside world, I'm just jingti, Calristo has become a mutant being." ”
Although this sentence was very calm, Xiao Yan clearly felt the infinite pressure in it. The brother's respect for his sister, his worry about his sister, and his deepest love for his sister are all reflected in this sentence.
Xiao Yan didn't continue to ask what would happen if Calristo really turned into a mutant life of the original body, in fact, the big axe in Laikaon's hand had already explained everything.
At this moment, an extremely sharp cry suddenly burst out around Xiao Yan. The cry from Calisto didn't have any skills attached, but the mere sound caused a rumbling echo throughout the cave, as if Calristo was everywhere.
As Xiao Yan turned his head suddenly, a circle of burning flames had already appeared beside Calisto beside him, these flames seemed to be just projections, even if they were only a few centimeters away from the ring of fire, Xiao Yan couldn't feel any heat.
He tried to touch the flames, and an unimaginable pain struck him, and for a moment, he almost thought his hand had been burned completely.
This made Xiao Yan frightened, and after pulling his finger back to examine it carefully, his gaze told him that there was nothing wrong with his finger. But the pain that still didn't dissipate in his mind made him unable to control his right hand, as if it had really been burned.
Calristo in the ring of fire behaved very violently, she kept moaning, hurting, paining, and sad sounds. The sounds made her body sway in the ring of fire, looking wobbly.
Lecaon tried to help his sister, but the flaming icy flames dashed the strong trialist's intentions. In the end, he could only watch his sister struggle alone in the ring of fire.
The demonic access point seemed to have a deep interest in the battle between the trialist and the inner demon, at least in Xiao Yan's occasional glance, the dot had stopped beating and turning, and it looked like a lone pupil staring at what was happening in front of him.
The entire cave had fallen silent except for the occasional sounds made by Calristo, and this contrasting silence became an irrevocable heaviness that weighed heavily on Laikaon's body.
The uncertainty of the future, the worry of his sister, made the stout trialist's hands tremble.
Xiao Yan wanted to say something, but in the end, he couldn't say anything, so he could only reluctantly pat Laikaon on the shoulder as a sign of comfort.
After a few minutes or so, Calristo suddenly fell silent, and she stood there calmly, her body trembling like a leaf in the autumn wind. It is clear that the battle against the demons has reached an extremely dangerous moment.
Lekaon, who was standing beside Xiao Yan, had begun to gasp for breath, and this almost abnormal state made Xiao Yan vaguely see the powerful brother who did not hesitate to risk his sister at the beginning. Laikaon's tearful eyes at that time and his hands now clutching the handle of the axe seemed to be more representative of the inner softness of the strong trialist.
"The demon's flame, it turns out that this is the demon's flame."
"The demons are good, but that's all."
Calristo said suddenly, and with her words, the flames around her suddenly bulged, and in a matter of seconds, these rings of fire had rapidly decayed, and finally only sporadic sparks slowly fell in the air.
Looking at Lecaon, Calisto moved his body for a moment, then took out a staff from his bracelet and whispered, "Oh, it's a pleasure to be fully restored." (To be continued.) )
