Chapter 755: Intermission
"It's great to be safe and sound!" said the man who spoke and gave Moody a bear hug. ◢ with ◢ dream ◢ small ◢.com
Moody also looked very excited, and showed a rare look of shyness.
Well, Moody isn't a, just a strong big brother who always treats him as a child.
Oliver's side is an elder, and the ghost sister meets her parents, and the scene is full of warmth. Kane could feel that the feelings of these people were sincere, but they were expressed in different ways.
He's a little embarrassed, alone.
But this embarrassment didn't last long before it was terminated by Oliver's introduction.
With Oliver's emotional intelligence, he naturally wouldn't forget to brush Kane's favorability and knowledgeable group impression score at such a time. Kane is indeed worthy of the title of life-saver.
Vulgar polite greetings, Moody, Ghost Sister's relatives and friends have also joined in, the strong will always be respected, as a transcendent, the particularity of the fire-eater they can clearly perceive, Coffey is not obvious, the fire-resistant has the characteristics of 'refractory bricks', energy isolation, can be called first-class.
After dealing with this wave of social interaction, Kane focused on Oliver's elder, Samuel, and talked about some of the topics in detail, such as concerns about the rescue fleet.
"The rescue fleet looks majestic, but in fact the future is in doubt. Kane didn't say it directly, but the meaning was clear.
He gave an example of this move, the erosion of the mind.
Entering the nightmare area, the erosion of the mind begins, and although ordinary people are not as sensitive as transcendents, they are much less able to bear pressure.
If nothing else, let's talk about aircraft carriers, once the pilot falls into auditory hallucinations, it is entirely possible to treat his own ship as a sea monster, and it is not difficult to imagine what will happen at that time.
He brought up this topic mainly to point out the Concentration Thorn, which is a magic weapon that represents brain occlusion.
Of course, now was not the right time to dwell on the subject, and he didn't want to be too frivolous to make people think that he couldn't wait to show the value of the mystical artifact by selling the Concentration Thorn.
Samuel is also knowledgeable, and he said that he is very interested in the Mind Thorn, and he may wish to talk about it after dinner. Concern was also expressed about the crisis in the existence of the rescue fleet, which Kane had spoken.
This aspect is obviously much more than the psychic erosion of the nightmare environment.
"I've heard that the other participants in the Gatekeeper Clan's rescue operation were searched and rescued by the rescue fleet before we did?"
Samuel nodded, "Yes, the search and rescue team found them at the North East Sea Cliff, and the rescue went very smoothly." ”
"Is it on this ship?"
"No, they're on the Elizabeth. Samuel said and pointed to the southeast, where there was a destroyer and a 50,000-ton ship. The category is considered a supply ship, and it is a sister ship to the Victoria, where Kane is now located, and externally, they all belong to this aircraft carrier battle group.
In fact, it sells dog meat on the head of a sheep, and these two ships are more inclined to scientific research ships, and they have been magically modified.
"Except for the five of us who participated in the rescue operation of the gatekeepers, the rest of us were very problematic. ”
Kane's words seemed a bit alarmist, but Oliver immediately stood up to show his support.
Oliver tells Samuel about the Investigator A, the shipwreck, and the weirdness of the fungus world. Finally, it is pointed out that these people, who were destroyed at the beginning of the rescue operation, can be active in the sinister nightmare environment, and there are too many doubts.
The investigators in Group A were able to barely explain that they were 'the best of the extraordinary, outstanding'. There are a significant number of shipwreck survivors, so how can they survive in a nightmare environment?
Another question, what do these people eat, drink, live in, and how do they spend their nights these days?
The environment of Sino Island is extremely harsh, with an average low temperature of minus 0 degrees, the sea breeze howling all day long, and the evil creatures are like nocturnal animals living in the primeval forest.
The most terrifying thing is that the nightmare environment erodes the psyche and nearly doubles at night.
Oliver: They also tasted the horror little by little after Kane fell asleep. He was also grateful to Kane for allowing Coffey and the Fire-Eaters to prop up the Fire Barrier at night to provide them with shelter.
It can be said that without the protection of the barrier, insomnia and nightmares will be the norm, and the neurasthenia caused by poor rest will further contribute to insomnia and nightmares. It doesn't take more than a week at all, and people will be torn and broken.
With their own lives, they have survived these days with fear when they have shelter and no worries about eating and drinking, so how did the investigators and shipwreck survivors of Group A survive?
In this regard, Oliver and the others are more inclined to Kane's hint before he sleeps: due to the long time he has been captured by the fungus world, it is very likely that these people have been blackened.
Of course, the operation of the fungus world will most likely end up cheapening Shabu or Cthulhu.
Like Oliver, a few of them were first exhausted by the torture of the fungus world, and Cthulhu's power took advantage of the weakness and the transformation began.
Kane analyzed: "It may be that the time is short, and the operation of the fungus world against you is still in the most superficial torture stage, the second stage should be distortion and blackening, and the third stage is about inducing manipulation." After all, it is not easy to arrest, and behind the investment that has been consumed, most of them have some schemes. ”
Oliver: They also think this reasoning is reliable.
According to Kane's inference, the investigators and shipwreck survivors who have been captured by the fungus world for nearly a week are at least in the second stage.
Samuel said that Kane and Oliver had listened to what they said, and he would try his best to try to do something, but Kane and the others might have to suffer some grievances, and I hope they can bear with it.
Sure enough, the grievances soon came, and one of the heads of the rescue fleet told them almost bluntly that their current comprehensive situation required a comprehensive inspection, and to put it bluntly, it was house arrest.
Kane's puppets, including Coffey, have been sealed. However, Kane personally participated in the specific operation of the seal, and the key to unsealing was in Kane's hands, as a way to show that he did not covet it, but abided by the relevant system and followed the procedures meticulously.
Both Oliver and Moody's have repeatedly warned of the possibility of blackening Group A investigators and shipwreck survivors. However, the clerk said in an official tone, 'We will pay attention, thank you for the reminder', which is obviously to cope with the errand, and he is not distracted at all.
Compared to Oliver's worries, Kane seemed a little more heartless.
In fact, with his usual conspiracy theory, the conclusions of the analysis are even more severe. In his opinion, there is a high probability that the rescue fleet will suffer heavy losses, and the situation will be completely eroded as a result, and it will be at least a few dozen days before another effective operation is organized.
Once that's the case, the best opportunity to solve the problem is missed, and even a permanent source of nightmare spreading, it is possible that it will take shape somewhere on the island.
But so what?
He lacks a sense of identity with the world.
And he's got what he wants.
With his selfishness, where is he willing to rush to the water and fire for the well-being of a certain group.
Besides, it is clear that the environment is super-magical, extraordinary, and the human civilization in this world is still developing and growing, can there be any explanation behind this? The water is deep, he will not feel that this kind of crisis has happened, and if he does not save the world, civilization will be destroyed.
After completing a series of medical examinations before lunch, the results were naturally normal, Kane's control of the body and the knowledge of the human body were enough for him to cope with all kinds of scientific and mysterious side examinations, if anyone tried to take the opportunity to dig out his secrets, it would be pure thinking.
In the afternoon, a clerk came to the door and made detailed inquiries about what had happened to him on Sinoe Island. When Kane stated that he had pushed the steel giant ship with a displacement of tens of thousands of tons back to the surface from under the water and dragged it ashore, the two clerks showed obvious disbelief, and when they later stated that the deep divers had launched a large storm surge and drove thousands of sea monsters and ants to attack, they looked like they were pinching their noses and forbearing.
Kane didn't care about this either, when he did it, he had already thought about it, including the scene in front of him. These people have to say, 'It's all some people's imagination,' and that's fine, he doesn't need their approval.
Of course, if his interests are violated, he will take action on a case-by-case basis.
In a word: there is enough strength to be able to stand still.
After dinner, Samuel arrived as promised, and the main topic of conversation was the stinging of the mind.
This magic weapon can also be called the third eye, the way of wearing is a little peculiar, just like wearing a contact lens, with a finger against the external side, attached to the middle of the forehead, slightly pulled down, so that it is facing the pineal gland of the brain, and then pressed, there will be an energy thorn, through the flesh and skull pierced into the pineal gland, and then in the air two centimeters in front of the three eyes, there will be a luminous planetary rune slowly formed, and when this rune that has always maintained a relative position with the third eye body is completely stable, the brain occlusion is fully activated.
At first glance, the third eye looks like an auspicious mole, but the runes formed in the air make it look magical, and even if a man uses it, it is not feminine, but full of mystery.
Kane chose Samuel, mainly because Oliver has always been active and friendly, and he is more good at being a person. Kane also took advantage of the trend to strengthen interaction with the transcendent forces he represented, which can be regarded as a kind of feedback.
The main reason for throwing this transcendent item is to show its value.
And the intention of showing value is naturally not to tear up with the Celestial City-level transcendent forces.
In Kane's view, there are now two triggers for tearing his face.
For now, the strength he has shown in past operations is likely to lead the organizers of the rescue operation to want him to continue to act as an executor in resolving the nightmare events. And he didn't want to go too deep, no matter what shocking secrets or benefits were behind it.
In the long run, the skills he has demonstrated in his past operations will be coveted by many forces.
Since this is the case, then you might as well lay the groundwork now to see if you can be attached to the name of the forces to which Oliver's family belongs through the bundle of interests.
Samuel came over this time, in fact, he was also very sincere.
Occlumency, which is almost standard for participating in operations in the nightmare zone. After all, the impact of the nightmare environment on the mind is higher than the impact of the marginal environment on the mind in the past, and negative emotions will continue to accumulate, and the psychological trauma will be dug out little by little, reappearing, and gradually blending with auditory hallucinations until the consciousness collapses.
What's more, another horror of the nightmare environment is the suppression of the law, where the transcendents are severely weakened, and those spell abilities that are not related to the transcendent technical system of the old rulers are simply ineffective. The technology provided by Kane can play a stable and long-lasting role, and the forcing style is immediately highlighted.
Samuel naturally talked to Oliver in detail before he came, and he believed that Oliver was not exaggerating. Then, it is understandable to regard Kane, who has strong combat power and excellent creation ability, as a strategic partner.
There is another episode worth mentioning, that is, among the shipwreck survivors who successfully searched and rescued, including Oliver's other elder, Oliver's aunt Katie, who is also Samuel's wife.
Oliver also mentioned to Kane at one point that it was because of such an elder as one of the main leaders of the rescue operation that he was able to be well-informed and obtain some additional information.
Before greeting Kane and the others, Samuel had spoken to Katie. Although Katie can even tell the little secrets between husband and wife, Samuel still believes that Katie is no longer his wife.
The fake Katie is very good at acting, and Samuel can't come up with strong evidence to prove it for a while. But this situation became a circumstantial evidence after contact with Oliver and Kane. Even if the information revealed by Kane and their side seems to be unbelievable, and there seem to be many errors and omissions, in Samuel's opinion, this is the truth. Because the truth is often unsatisfactory, and lies are always woven very plausible.
Samuel believed in Kane and was willing to interact with him further. The most immediate benefit was that a batch of otherworldly substances quickly fell into Kane's hands.
Kane also lived up to Samuel's expectations and made 8 Contemplation Thorns in one go, and the effect of this thing goes without saying, who knows who uses it.
Due to various factors such as time, the interaction has come to an end for the time being. Samuel can't give Kane the 'blameless escape' he wants most right now, and he can't get in touch with the big rear. When the rescue fleet enters the nightmare zone, it loses contact with the outside world. However, Samuel made it clear that no matter how things evolve next, as long as they can get in touch, then 'Goliath' will help Kane get out of the pit, even if it is in the form of a bail.
Kane naturally understood the weight of Samuel's promise. The vast majority of human interactions revolve around the concept of 'profit'. As the saying goes: loyalty is only because the price is not enough......
A Heavenly City-level transcendent force is sincere in fishing for people, and he believes that it can help him settle a lot of entangled bad things. For example, the responsibility of the hired party or something.
"What's next? It's mostly the rescue fleet being taught how to behave. After sending Samuel away, Kane had no shortage of malicious thoughts. He didn't want to see the rescue fleet damaged, but the probability of it happening was really high, but fortunately, he had the materials in his hands, and after digesting it, maybe he could rob a ship? If necessary, he would do it......
