Chapter 14: The Harvest
In the embers, Jiang Hai found a burning match.
This is the mark of the girl's survival, and it is the hope that the girl still has left.
Jiang Hai picked up the match and looked at the ashes all over the ground, it was silent for a long time.
"It's painful, maybe, you're tired too... After enduring such endless pain, you also want to be relieved, right? β
In this pile of embers, Jiang Hai heard the girl's voice.
"Please... Please let ... Grandmother... Put me... Take... bar..."
Jiang Hai suddenly thought of his identity, it was a funeral ritual.
It lowered the coffin behind it, opened the lid, and was about to take all the ashes back into the coffin, but in a vision, all the ashes fell into the coffin, and then turned into a girl who had not yet transformed into a charred girl.
"Thank you... You... Sir..."
In the distance, a star falls on the horizon, and the whole world is shattered.
Jiang Hai knew that the scorched girl had completely disappeared into this world.
Jiang Hai's consciousness returned to that dark and deep place with many tombstones.
Here, like last time, there is a howling wind, but it seems that there is a little change from the time Jiang Hai came here, but Jiang Hai can't tell how it has changed.
It's the same feeling here and the lounge gives it.
But it knew that it couldn't stay here for long, and before long, an invisible force would pull its consciousness back into the lobe.
Sure enough, it wasn't long before it was back at the Brain Lobe Company again.
But it's not in the form of a charred girl.
ββ
[Completed the special event "The Little Match Girl" of the Scorched Girlγ
[Get the reward, "The Match That Never Goes Out."]
Effect: Slowly regenerates health.
If you carry this Fantasy Core when you incarnate into the Scorched Girl form, you can control the match to detonate a second time if you leave an additional match behind after it explodes.
Fantasy Core Description: Objects that symbolize hope to a young girl may symbolize despair to others.
The flame will not be extinguished until it consumes all the happiness, warmth, and light of the world.
Those who are scorched by the flames will develop an endless hatred for the world until their consciousness and body are reduced to ashes along with the maiden. γ
[The system prompts that you have currently devoured the Scorched Maiden.] γ
However, it has now devoured the Scorched Girl, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to use the secondary detonation function of this core in the future.
At this moment, Jiang Hai is looking down on the Brain Lobe Company from the perspective of God.
At present, Jiang Hai seems to have entered a state of soul, and the entire company seems to be a plane in its eyes, and it knows the entire company well at the moment, and can even tell how many hairs there are on the head of an employee in a certain containment cell.
The huge data almost overwhelmed Jiang Hai's brain, and Jiang Hai closed his eyes in pain.
Jiang Hai found that as long as it closed its eyes, it could turn off this damn perception, so it decisively kept its eyes closed.
Jiang Hai, who had nothing to do, recalled what he had just done.
Just now, it took it upon itself to bury the charred girl, but it didn't expect that the mistake would swallow the charred girl, but it didn't feel guilty, after all, the girl finally took the initiative to enter the coffin.
Having said that, this coffin is the first time that a body that is not a dead butterfly burial rite has been buried.
Jiang Hai in the state of soul held his forehead and remembered the tragic Brother Die for a second.
Regarding death, the company's anomalies can be broadly divided into two categories. The first is very aware of what 'death' is, but is aggressive by nature and likes to kill, and the second is aware of the concept of 'death' but does not feel any negative emotions at all when killing.
Both the Dead Butterfly Funeral and the Burnt Girl belong to the second category. But the difference is that the Dead Butterfly Funeral has compassion for the employees, the Burnt Girl has a strong hatred for people, the Dead Butterfly Funeral wants the employees to die and fall into a short sleep to leave this bleak place, and the Burnt Girl wants to take revenge on them.
Jiang Hai can't say whether the difference is good or bad, maybe there is no good or bad in the first place, after all, they just follow instinct.
In the process of incarnation, Jiang Hai can clearly feel the feelings of the anomaly it incarnates, and this feeling is affecting it, which makes Jiang Hai from the beginning of the difficult acceptance of his own identity, to now, he is almost relieved.
But although the dead butterfly funeral ceremony and the scorched girl affected Jiang Hai, so far, the influence on Jiang Hai has not played a role in dominating its personality, Jiang Hai is still Jiang Hai.
What Jiang Hai didn't know was that what played a leading role in Jiang Hai's personality was Jin Jianghai's life experience and life journey, but not long ago, the system took advantage of the situation and instigated Jiang Hai to delete the memories of the past, leaving only the character, fantasy ecology and knowledge shaped by this memory.
Finally, the director ended the day, and the long-lost system prompt finally sounded.
[Anomaly System Activation.] γ
[Anomalytes have been unlocked so far...... Scorch the girl, progress 100%. γ
[The number of deaths today, 1 time, casualties, 16, the cumulative number of casualties, 24, please keep up the good work. γ
[Get a reward, 153 LOB points.] γ
[Complete the Special Event, "Art is an Explosion!"] β
Achievement Condition: When turning into a scorched girl, cause 15 or more casualties at once.
An additional 50 LOB points are awarded. γ
[237 LOB points remaining]
Jiang Hai was dumbfounded, it never imagined that it would get 225 lob points, it thought it would be very good to be able to get 100 lob points, but it didn't expect to get so many at once.
Jiang Hai couldn't think of how he could get so many lob points, and he tentatively asked the system.
Can you list the sources of the LOB points?
[Obtaining, please waitββ]
[Today's Kill List:
1 T-class anomaly, scorched girl
3 H-Class Anomalies, Scavengers
2 Level 4 employees
1 Level 5 employee
9 civilians
Loss:
1 piece of H-grade ego
1 piece of W-grade ego
4 pieces of T grade ego
Earn a total of 175 LOB points]
At this time, Jiang Hai thought that when it blew itself up, there seemed to be three things on the ground.
It was originally just to let Dennis leave and not be affected by the explosion, so it delayed the self-detonation. Unexpectedly, it was this senseless kindness that caused it to unexpectedly drag until the scavenger appeared, gaining an additional 90 lob points.
Also, does the original self-explosion count as a kill? It's a bad taste.
Jiang Hai sneered.
[If you don't think it counts, the system can deduct that part of the LOB points.] γ
Count, of course.
Jiang Hai hurriedly changed his words, and he suddenly felt that this system was rigid, but sometimes it was quite interesting.
It's weird to talk psychologically, but if you say it, this stupid system can't hear it, it's really a chicken rib system, Jiang Hai thought.
[Actually, even if you speak normally, I can hear you. γ
ββ¦β¦ Why didn't you say it earlier. β
[You didn't ask, besides, can't you guess such a shallow and easy to see thing? γ
