Chapter 1063: Indirect Mutation
What Leo saw was something he couldn't describe, not that he couldn't find the words and phrases to describe it, but he felt that it was absolutely inaccurate to describe what he saw in any normal language, and the only word suitable to describe it was distortion.
It is as if the thing represented by the stereoscopic image in front of you is the final product of the combination of all distorted and abnormal things in the universe, and all the forces in the universe that represent disorder and distortion are all in it, let alone get close to it, even if you look at it, the viewer's mind will be completely distorted and changed.
Although Leo had been prepared in advance, when he saw the image transformed by the hologram, all mental and physical features such as his mind seemed to be invaded by a powerful force, as if this force was about to distort and change his whole being.
Fortunately, Leo closed his eyes in time and didn't look at those pictures anymore, and the psionic energy and other extraordinary forces in his body worked together to clear out the unhindered twisted power that invaded his body, so that he was not affected too much.
However, although Leo was not fatally affected, the force that invaded his body still caused him to be more or less injured, for example, his arm had some cracks in his bones because of this twisted force, although it was not broken, but it would affect the movement of his arm for a period of time, and indirectly affect his combat effectiveness.
"Close the picture. Leo had no intention of looking any further, and commanded the android.
I have to admit that he did underestimate how dangerous the environment in that library was, when he was prepared, the distorting power contained in the picture could hurt him, a sixth-level psionic person, if ordinary people saw it, they would probably die directly.
Although he was curious about what kind of world the library was in, curiosity was obviously less important than life.
However, after he instructed the android to turn off the screen, he did not receive a response from the android.
Puzzled, he didn't open his eyes to look around, but sensed the situation around him through the spiritual network, and the android who was sitting next to him like a real person had now disappeared from the spiritual network, along with the cosmology introduction on the table.
Leo seemed to realize something, opened his eyes slightly, looked around carefully, and found that not only the androids and books had disappeared, but also the library that overlapped with the forbidden library had also disappeared, and the hologram naturally disappeared, as if the staggered state formed by that space and the space in the library had reached the time of time, and automatically exited the spatial connection, allowing the space in the library to return to normal.
Although Leo was concerned about the warping power of that space, he was still annoyed that he could not get more information about that space from the androids in time, but fortunately he did not find nothing, at least he recorded the source code of the relevant monitoring data in the library and its surroundings, as long as he decoded and compiled the source code through the Universal Recorder of the Universe, he was able to restore the data and find out why the library appeared in such a distorted space.
Leo put this aside for the time being, waiting to see if he could still encounter spatial overlap here, and when he saw the android, his attention fell back on the book, so he turned around and prepared to call the attendant to open the forbidden book on the shelf.
But at this moment, a sound came from the foyer of the library, breaking the dead silence in the library, and these sounds were the sound of some heavy objects hitting the ground, as if a large number of tables, chairs, and bookshelves had collapsed.
"Should I ......" A thought suddenly came to Leo's mind, and without much thought, he got up and rushed to the entrance of the forbidden book area, and looked towards the foyer downstairs.
In the middle of the foyer of the library below, a huge humanoid monster covered in rotting tumors was smashing everything it could see like a frenzy, and at the same time, the hole that looked like a mouth was constantly opening, as if it wanted to shout, but because the vocal organs had mutated, it couldn't make any sound.
Leo, who was standing on the second floor, could easily identify from the tattered clothes on the monster, this monster was the attendant assigned to him by the library, and the reason why this attendant became like this was probably related to the surveillance projection of the library just now.
Although the squire can't see everything about the library, Leo can see it, and Leo can also feel the twisted power, he is like the bridge between the distorted world of the library and the world of the sea god, when Leo is attacked by the distorted power, the squire's attention to him is equivalent to connecting himself to the bridge, so that the distorted power that invaded Leo's body also invades his body, completely distorting him.
In the horror of the Forbidden Library, all the people who come into contact with the Forbidden Library, as well as the people and things that come into contact with this person, do not end well, and I think it is for this reason.
At this time, the huge movement in the library also alarmed the guards in the forbidden library, and these guards rushed in from outside the library door one by one.
Unlike the Templar guards of the Church of Poseidon, the guards of the Forbidden Library are all of a kind of sea tribe resembling lizardmen, who are all very strong, heavily armoured, and armed with harpoon-like weapons.
If you can see through the lizardmen's fully enclosed helmets, you will find that these lizardmen's eyeballs are gone, and in their place are two eyeball-shaped gems, which rely on their tongues and perceptions to determine their surroundings, and this is more useful than their eyes, and it is not easy to see anything taboo, or be affected by some hallucinations.
So when they rushed into the library, they immediately understood what was going on, and they didn't feel much confusion about this situation, because the forbidden library contains a lot of forbidden knowledge, and some of this knowledge has caused readers to go crazy and mutate, so they have already prepared a complete set of solutions for this.
I saw that the dozen or so library guards jumped into the air with amazing bounce force, and then landed around the monster, before the monster made an attack and defense action, the steel fork in his hand was inserted into the opponent's body, and then twisted the steel fork handle, and some barbs popped out from the top of the steel fork, hooking the monster's muscles, and then they retreated as fast as possible, and dragged out a long chain from the handle of the steel fork.
The monster didn't seem to care about the pain caused by the steel fork piercing into his body, but he was extremely angry with these library guards, only to see its arms swing vigorously, and its originally thick arms instantly turned into long whip-like tentacles, extending outwards and slashing at those library guards.
The library guards also seemed to have anticipated this situation, and at the same time as the monster made a move, they either jumped away from the farthest distance, or quickly pressed their bodies against the ground, dodging the monster's blind spot and avoiding the attack.
Then, I saw that the arm of the library guard suddenly shone with two blue lights, these lights came from the bones of the arm, and the transmission effect caused by the light made the arm appear translucent, and at the same time, the lightning-like light could be seen on the scales of the arm.
When all the guards' arms flashed with light, an electric current flowed down the guards' arms into the chains they held in their hands, and then quickly transmitted to the steel fork at the top, and into the monster's body.
Although the current produced by these guards themselves is not particularly strong, far from being comparable to Leo's thunder guns, there are many of them, and the parts of their harpoons inserted into are also very specific, which are the joints that control the movement of the body, and these places are stimulated by the electric current and begin to be uncontrolled by the monster, causing it to fall to the ground in an instant.
At this moment, the guards of the library landed on all fours almost at the same time, crawling towards the monster like a real lizard, and their tails were raised high, and a spike rose from the tip of the tail.
Before the monster could regain its physical activity, the guards' tail thorns had already pierced into the monster's body and injected something.
After doing all this, the library guards didn't even pay attention to the weapons that had fallen to the ground, and one by one they jumped away from the monsters with great caution and retreated to safety.
At this point, the monster resumed its movements, only to see it shake off its harpoon, and then opened its mouth at the surrounding library guards, let out a silent roar, and then prepared to attack them.
However, the venom injected into the monster by the library guards was apparently very violent, and it had been injected for less than a minute before it had an effect, rapidly decaying where the venom had been injected and spreading rapidly around the monster without the monster noticing it.
Just as the monster rushed out a few steps, ready to attack the library guard closest to it, the rotten venom that spread throughout its body had completely destroyed its active muscles, and its huge body fell heavily to the ground, turning into a pile of rancid mud in the blink of an eye.
After the monster was resolved, the library guards did not leave or clean the battlefield, but looked towards Leo on the second floor.
The foyer on the first floor was so fierce and there were monsters involved, but the people on the second floor were staying there calmly as if they were watching a play, which made people feel strange no matter how you look at it.
At this time, the manager of the library also walked out of his office, first walked over to the monster's corpse and looked up, then looked up at Leo with a little meaning.
In the office, the administrator watched the battle in the foyer with a special technique, and even he saw with his own eyes how quickly the attendant turned into a monster.
Although it happened so suddenly that he was completely unprepared, he judged from the actions of the squire before the mutation that the squire had mutated that the cause of the squire's mutation should be Leo, that is, the terrifying legend in the library.
However, what also puzzled him was that anyone involved in the horror legend mutated first, and then the person who was related to it or had recent contact with it mutated, but the current situation was that Leo didn't have anything to do, but the squire who was cautious and wary of Leo from the beginning fell for the trick and turned into a monster, which was completely unprecedented, and he couldn't help but wonder if he had made a mistake in judgment.
"Sorry to interrupt you! There's been some accident here, and we'll be able to deal with it soon. The manager came upstairs, stopped some distance from Leo, and said.
Leo looked at the manager and said calmly, "This mutated monster should be your assigned squire, right?"
"Yes. The manager nodded, staring at Leo with a questioning look in his eyes, as if asking why the squire who followed him had turned into a monster.
However, to the manager's surprise, Leo said in an unusually serious tone, "The squire you assigned to me has suddenly turned into such a dangerous monster, I have to doubt your intentions, have you decided to let the Forbidden Library take sides in the dispute between the Two Holy Churches?"
Hearing Leo's words, the administrator was completely stunned, and didn't know how to answer for a while, originally in his opinion, it should be something that Leo was using just now, which caused the attendant to mutate into a monster, but now after Leo's words, it turned out that the administrator deliberately sent that monster to him, the forbidden book scribe of the Divine Descent Templar, to make him have an accident, the reason is that the other party has chosen to stand on the opposite side of the Divine Descent Templar and do things for the Divine Sanctuary.
The administrators dared to admit this kind of thing, although the dispute between the two holy churches of the church did not spread among the ordinary people and the clergy, but it was already a well-known thing in the upper echelons of the Poseidon Church.
While the vast majority of people chose the side they supported, there were also many who chose neutrality, such as the manager of the Forbidden Library, because he knew very well that no matter which side he chose to support, he would be the object that the other side had to deal with, and the best and only option for him was neutrality.
Therefore, when Leo said those words, the library manager didn't care about what reason the squire had become a monster, and the only thing he wanted to do now was to show his neutrality, so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings and cause him trouble when Leo's words were spread.
So, he also said in an extremely serious tone: "The Forbidden Library belongs to the General Church, and the attitude of the General Church is the attitude of the library, and it is not up to me, as a library manager, to decide which side to support. What happened just now was just an accident, I hope you don't have too much unnecessary speculation, and I will arrange another attendant, I hope that the movement just now did not disturb you too much. ”
With that, he didn't linger any longer, but hurried around and walked towards his office, where a new squire arrived after a while.
