Chapter Twenty-Eight: At What Cost?
"I see!"
Zhou Lang's heart was horrified.
This seemingly peaceful and harmonious world hides the danger of destroying everything underneath.
Sure enough, ignorance is the happiest!
"That'...... What's going on with these mutated animals? What's going on with the infection?"
Zhou Lang pointed to the mutant badger that had fallen in front of him and asked Lin Li.
"The Demon Domain is very dangerous, and the blood of monsters is extremely infectious. Once you are injured and soaked into the wound by the blood of the monster, you will be demonized, lose your mind, and only have the instinct to kill and destroy!"
Lin Li pointed to the mutant badger on the ground, "This is the consequence of being infected by demonization. And...... These things also have the ability to re-infect. Eating the flesh of a demonized animal, or being soaked in the wound by the blood of a demonized animal, will become infected. ”
"Is it demonic infected? No wonder!"
Zhou Lang thought of Meng Laosan's whole family, and thought of the big black dog and those demonized infected mice.
Obviously, the "cannibalism" of Meng Laosan's whole family was because they ate the flesh of a mutant badger that was demonized and infected, which caused the whole family to be demonized and infected and kill each other.
The big black dog and the rat also ate the meat of the demonized badger, thus demonizing and mutating.
Lin Li continued to explain.
"Since the opening of the first Demon Domain Passage, new Demon Realm Passages have been opened around the world. Over the years, countries around the world have been fighting against the Demon Domain, but there are more and more Demon Domain passages. ”
Lin Li sighed, "There are more and more passages in the Demon Domain, even if we block the passages and prevent the monsters from entering our world. However, the energy that radiates from the demonic channel is still very much affected by our world, for example, more and more supernatural events. ”
"Paranormal events, ghosts, ghosts, ghosts, ghosts,
Zhou Lang blinked, it turned out to be ...... All the "ghosts" I encountered were caused by the escape of demonic energy?
At this time, Zhou Lang also figured out what the "three-point magic energy" he had harvested from the last dungeon was.
Merely...... Those three points of magic energy were obviously obtained from Lin Li.
Why does Lin Li have magic energy on her body?
Is there anything else hidden in this?
"Team Lin, are these so-called 'magic energy' like the 'aura revival' written in the novel?
In Zhou Lang's opinion, Lin Li and the members of these special forces should be masters of "cultivating immortals" or "cultivating demons". Otherwise, why should they resist those monsters?
"Hehe! It's as simple as you think!"
Lin Li let out a long sigh, a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes, "Demonic energy is not a revival of spiritual energy, to absorb demonic energy, the price you pay is beyond your imagination!"
At a cost?
Zhou Lang glanced at Lin Li and frowned slightly.
Obviously, Lin Li definitely paid the price, thus becoming a person who can absorb magical energy. Otherwise, the last dungeon wouldn't have recovered three points of magic energy.
So...... At what cost?
Like in a certain game, Gul'dan said: All this?
"Can you tell me about it?
Zhou Lang was also a little curious about this.
"At what cost?"
Lin Li glanced at Zhou Lang deeply, and suddenly smiled, "You've played the Warcraft game! What did Gul'dan say when he asked the orcs to drink the demon's blood?"
As she spoke, Lin Li stretched out her finger and pointed at herself, "All this!"
"Hiss......"
Zhou Lang's eyes widened and he took a sharp breath of cold air.
No wonder Lin Li said that in order to defend the country and protect the people, she is willing to give everything, including her life.
Originally...... If you want to absorb magical energy, do you really have to pay the price of your life?
Although Lin Li is not dead now! However, the price of life is not fake!
Drink to quench thirst, Zhou Lang still knows this idiom! What does chronic suicide mean, Zhou Lang also understands!
If you want to absorb demonic energy, if you want to become strong, you have to pay the price with your life. Even if you don't die for a while, sooner or later it's a dead end!
It's easy to understand.
The more demonic energy is absorbed, the stronger the strength, and the more severely demonized it becomes. To the end...... It's no different from a monster!
Lost his mind, only the instinct to kill and destroy remains. What's the difference between that and being dead?
Yes, at what cost?
Life, soul, all this, is the price of strength, the price of defending the country, protecting the people!
No wonder Lin Li's temper is so hot, no wonder Lin Li is so simple and rude, presumably ...... This is also the price of absorbing magical energy!
At this moment, Zhou Lang had infinite admiration for Lin Li and all the members of the special forces!
It is their sacrifice that has brought people a peaceful life.
But...... Am I going to go down this path too?
The noble sacrifices of others, Zhou Lang admires them very much. But if this sacrifice is placed on oneself, then it will be ......
"What's that...... Is it too late for me to quit?"
Zhou Lang looked at Lin Li with a wry smile.
"What do you say?"
Lin Li rolled her eyes, "Don't worry, not every special soldier injected with the 'Demon Energy Serum' will die! As long as you can suppress the desires and distractions in your heart, be strong-willed, and not be tempted, you will not fall and fall into the devil." ”
"Magic Serum?"
Zhou Lang raised his head in surprise, "What is the Magic Energy Serum?"
"The Magic Serum is a special kind of serum. You can only absorb magical energy if you are injected with the magic energy serum. ”
Lin Li's face suddenly became a little ugly, she turned over and stood up, and yelled at Zhou Lang, "Don't ask, you'll know sooner or later." Let's go and break through this magic passage. ”
"One last question. ”
Zhou Lang also stood up, "You just said that as long as you are strong-willed, you will not fall into the devil." What I want to ask is...... Are there any examples of success?"
"Uh......"
Lin Li's figure was stunned, she turned her head violently, and a burst of anger burst out in her eyes, "What are you asking? What are you worried about entering the demon? Before you can enter the demon, you will already die in battle, worry about a fart!"
yelled angrily, Lin Li carried the riot stick, turned around and left.
"me! It seems...... It was a bad decision to join the Special Forces!"
At this moment, Zhou Lang only felt that his heart was blocked.
This kind of profession is destined to die, unless you are a fool, who would do it!
Ahead, Lin Li's struggling figure was very dazzling.
She's that kind of fool!
And...... There are many more fools like Lin Li!
At this time, Zhou Lang suddenly remembered a game cutscene.
"Lord Illidan, evil energy fills our bodies, evil energy eats away at our souls, we ...... What's the difference with those evil demons?"
"You ask me, what's the difference between us and the devil?"
"The difference is ...... The devil wants to destroy the world, and we ...... But fight for it!"
