Chapter 65: A Difficult Compromise
"Why is this happening?" Lu Yue was puzzled: "Didn't you say that as long as you enter the border, there will be no dark spot corrosion?" ”
"We made a mistake, a big mistake!" Downing reached out and lightly hammered the sheets, his strength recovering a little as he became conscious. "The front-line troops have caused chaos by mistake, and there is a lot of speculation about this, it is said that it was done early, which led to a fierce resistance from the dark spots, so that the humans trapped on the border would be obliterated, but it forced me to make a deal with it."
....
Tang Ning didn't understand where he was at that time, but he heard the voice of a person, not loud, as if it was ringing in his ears.
"Human, take this message out..."
It had only said so much, but then it said something that surprised Tangning.
"Contribute your spiritual body, and I will give you dark energy."
"Nope! No, no, no, 1, I disagree! Who are you? Tang Ning roared hoarsely at the purple shadow, but the thing didn't move at all, but Tang Ning felt a huge sense of oppression.
"We are guards..."
"We are squires... Subjects at the bottom..."
Then, Tang Ning saw another purple figure emerge from the darkness, followed by the third and fourth, and in less than a minute, the surrounding space was almost full of those purple figures, and the whispers became dense at this moment.
"The squire at the bottom... The spirit at the bottom of the well who has no foresight...."
"I'll enter you and help deliver the message...."
At this moment, Tang Ning suddenly felt a huge force directly into his body from the outside, and that power instantly destroyed his consciousness like a raging fire, Tang Ning felt the fear of death for the first time, but even so, he still struggled and did not faint.
"Tang Jian... Stay alive. This sentence came to Tangning's mind for no reason.
Tang Ning didn't know the rest, he only knew that when he woke up, he was already lying on the hospital bed, and Tang Jian also survived, and avoided him as soon as they met. And those two team members, he searched all over the survivor camp and didn't find it, he finally understood what was going on.
But no matter what he did, it was useless, and Tang Ning also understood that the things in that boundary had been brought out by him.
"This is.... All the way through. Downing lowered his head deeply. I later learned that the cause of death of the corpses found on the second floor was that they should have been drained of their mental strength, and there was one less person, so I guess they should have suffered the same situation as me. For this, I have a conjecture. ”
"Go on." Lu Yue glanced at him coldly.
"Although the energy transfer of the dark spot does not conform to any human physics, it itself obeys the law of conservation of energy in part of its own changes to the environment.... The ability to take a core of its size away is beyond imagination, and we searched the bodies of the victims to find that their team was missing a man. My thoughts are like this.... We stumbled into the core of the dark spot that was forced to activate the transfer, it wanted to live, it wanted to take the core parasitic out of the human body, the missing person in that team was an example, but it obviously failed, because the peripheral rescue team found no trace of that person. ”
"So?"
"So it can only stare at us, and I didn't have any dark spot markers at that time, it has no choice, not only that, but it also gave some of its power to Tang Jian, so that we will not have a problem in the face of any dark spot realm, and we can find the easiest way to escape."
At this moment, Tang Jian was already crying in another room, she desperately grabbed the corner of the table, and restrained the urge to go out to question, because Lu Yue still had questions to ask.
"How do you usually communicate with that thing?" Lu Yue had already slowly grasped the dagger hidden behind his clothes.
"It doesn't make sense... You don't have to hide it. Tang Ning smiled weakly at Lu Yue. I can perceive your movements.... That thing doesn't want to hurt me for a while, and I can feel its burst of power just when it confronted Breakpoint, and it should be dormant now. ”
"And what are you now? Mankind? Scotwith creature or scotcha itself? Lu Yue straightened up. Are you going to kill us and turn us into corpses? “
"The scotoma is very fragile when it enters the human body, and it does not have the ability to absorb mental power, but it is very physically damaging to me. It won't do anything to us, it also understands that it's good for us to live, why not do it before if we can do it, and we would have died long ago when the ionizing radiation in the basement suddenly burst out around us, why hasn't our bodies changed a little bit now? Downing gestured to his head. I don't understand what it's about, but it seems like it just wants us alive at the moment, and if I have anything out of the ordinary in the future, you can give me a shot. ”
"I might be able to keep an eye on you and spare you a life." Lu Yue pointed to the wall. "But Tang Jane's hostility towards you is growing, and I can't guarantee that she won't do anything."
"But if you think about it, is it really my fault?" Tangning clenched the sheets in anger. "If they hadn't woken up the dark spots, we would have been safe!"
