172 Traitor

What happened after that was like a grotesque puppet show, the person in charge, Zhu Dark, and I, as if turned into puppets by an invisible force, repeated all the previous conversations in the reception room, and then left the reception room and walked towards the containment department again.

This time, we didn't see anyone else along the way, navigating the empty hallways, and then checking in and checking in front of the entrance to the containment department. I watched my body talk to myself like an outsider, unable to intervene in the situation at hand of my own volition.

I've tried summoning sirenblades and mobilizing spiritual powers, but nothing has happened. Even the call to the siren in my head did not get any response, and there was a vague feeling in my head that I could not think freely.

Soon, we were back in front of the room containing the undead. The person in charge walked in front and held the handle of the iron door, and pushed the door in again. And behind the door, it is the previous reception room.

Compared to before, the layout of the guest room is basically the same, but it looks a little shabby and dirty.

The person in charge walked in, turned his head after standing still, and said the previous "line" again: "I won't tell you, I don't know where the news came from recently......"

I could only watch myself and Zhu Dian continue to repeat our words and actions like marionettes, and then leave the reception room again, enter the containment department, and walk through the hallway to the iron door at the end. The person in charge opened the iron door again, and the reception room was still behind. Compared to last time, the reception room looked even more dilapidated and dirty, and there were even more blood stains on the floor and furniture.

Obviously, we have encountered a strange phenomenon induced by the "pollution" of the undead.

I should have foreseen.

I've heard from the person in charge that the undead in the presence of the Puqing City Security Bureau have induced contamination, but I still walked to the room containing the undead without doing anything. Admittedly, since the Puqing City Security Bureau seems to be operating normally, it means that the pollution phenomenon is not in a state of attack most of the time, but with my constant vigilance, it is unlikely that it will come straight to it.

When did my carelessness start? Looking back now, it seems that it started with the sentence that the person in charge said to me and Zhu, "I don't know where the news has come from recently, that something strange has happened inside our Security Bureau". There seems to be some mysterious force within the Security Service that implants this information of unknown origin directly into people's minds. This is obviously a supernatural phenomenon capable of swaying the human mind, and after this information entered my consciousness, I accepted it unconsciously and even as a matter of course. This means that even my mind is swayed by that force.

That force is probably part of the current cycle of pollution, but the person in charge should have come to the containment department to check on the undead before, why wasn't he involved in the pollution phenomenon before, but only now with us? Is it because I have the power of the true spirit to solve the source of the pollution phenomenon, so I induce some kind of stress response to the pollution phenomenon? However, it seems that there are a few people who have disappeared mysteriously due to the investigation of pollution phenomena, and they can't all have the power of true spirits.

I suddenly had a strange realization, and I was afraid that no matter how much I reasoned here, it would be useless, because it was not a matter of reason and logic at all.

This is true chaos, and even though it covers a seemingly traceable shell, the core is a strange thing that the human intellect is destined to be incomprehensible. And this absurd nature reminds me of "it" as the source of "pollution".

I don't know how many cycles have passed, and the scenery in my eyes is getting more and more shabby and dirty, even terrifying. The re-entry of the reception room was unrecognizable, the furniture and floors were in tatters, the rotten blood and flesh were everywhere, and the decorative paintings of the characters hanging on the walls had changed from tranquil and natural expressions to horrific expressions of pain and blood and tears. Even the beads and the person in charge who were walking around them had a frightening change, their facial features became extremely disordered in terms of number and arrangement, and their limbs also became abnormal anti-joints, and the whole person showed a monster-like extremely distorted posture.

Not only them, but even my body underwent distorted changes that are indescribably indescribable, and my thoughts became more and more uncontrollable. I felt like I was truly taking on the role of myself in the loop, repeating the conversation with them wholeheartedly. That being said, my words with them, like their appearances, became more and more fragmented, even mixed with a roar that didn't look like a human. If you insist on describing the spiritual experience at this time, it is "dreaming", a nightmare that you can never wake up from while going deep into the demon realm.

The person in charge walked to the iron door for an unknown number of times, and this time, after he opened the iron door, it was no longer a reception room, but a darkness, a dark darkness that seemed to connect to other terrifying hell dimensions. I deeply feel that if I cross this threshold this time, it will really be a catastrophe.

Vaguely, I heard someone calling out to me urgently. I involuntarily stopped. The person in charge and Zhu Di stopped at the same time, turned their heads in unison, and stared at me with an eerie silence.

These two gazes seemed to have a magical power, and I couldn't control myself again and kept walking. However, the dangerous instincts in my mind rang like alarm bells, and finally rose to the extreme just as I was about to cross the threshold, "blasting" through my consciousness like an explosion. I snapped to my senses and stopped moving again.

The drowsiness, which had been haunting my mind since the anomaly had occurred, seemed to have been carved out of a small hole, and the power of the true spirit seemed to flow from that small hole, allowing me to move my palm again while resisting my body's unauthorized movements. I immediately tried to summon the Siren's Bladeβ€”the power of the True Spirit had condensed in my hands into a Siren's Blade that could only be considered an illusory one, beyond even physical reach.

Even if it's a phantom, though, it doesn't matter. When I held it, I felt a sense of power all over my body, and I completely took back command of my body.

In the next moment, without hesitation, I riveted the open iron door with all my strength and released the sword.

An indigo glow suddenly illuminated the space around it and bulldozed everything in front of it. When the light faded, the scene in front of me returned to its normal appearance. There was no more rotting blood and flesh on the floors and walls, and our bodies had changed back to their original shape, as if what had happened before was just a hallucination.

The iron door and the room behind it were reduced to rubble, and I caught the fluctuations of pollution slowly extinguishing. Obviously, there were some undead people in there, but they were all turned into ashes by my sword just now.

The source of the pollution was eliminated, and my instincts of danger were completely quelled.

Zhu Di and the person in charge sat down on the ground at the same time, panting in a cold sweat.

"Before...... What happened before? It's like having a terrible nightmare......" Zhu said with a sigh of relief. Neither she nor the person in charge seemed to remember much about what had happened, but both left a very strong impression of horror.

"What just happened?" The siren's worried voice rang in my head, "I saw that you suddenly stopped moving as soon as you walked to the door of this room. I desperately called out to you, but you didn't react at all, and suddenly attacked. ”

To the sirens, apart from my final attack, it seemed as if we were just standing in front of the iron gates, and all the horrors that had existed seemed to her to be non-existent.

Are those all our illusions? No, I can sense that it must have been more than just an illusion, we were really pulled into an inexplicable space. It's just that the sirens are somehow excluded in a logically inexplicable form. I told her about my previous bizarre experience, and she didn't know how to explain it.

The person in charge stood up on his knees, wiped his cold sweat, looked at the ruins of the room again, and then asked me, "Have you destroyed all those immortal things?" ”

"Yes." I also let out a long breath, and through this dangerous experience, I can be considered to have a new feeling about the pollution phenomenon, "If you also contain that type of victim in the future, be sure not to gather together." Also, remember to report to HQ, there should be a special team responsible for coming and retrieving them. ”

"Looks like headquarters already knew about the existence of this thing......" he gave me a deep look, "I'm going to call someone over and check it a few more times, just in case." ”

At this time, some of the security bureau warlocks had already heard the deafening commotion coming from here and rushed to them, and the person in charge walked over to explain the situation to them. And Zhu Di seemed to be a little exhausted, so I reached out and pulled her up, so let's get out of here first.

And at this moment, Zhu Dian made a strange move.

Perhaps because she was too mentally exhausted, she walked beside me, and under distraction, she slowly put her arms around me.

At first, I thought she was walking unsteadily and wanted to use me as a support. But even then, her movements were too intimate, almost touching the slender and soft body to mine. I couldn't help but stop after walking for a long time, and turned my head to look at her beside me.

She looked up and looked at me absentmindedly.

After two or three seconds, she seemed to wake up suddenly, and with a frightened expression, she moved away from me again and again.

She looked at her hands, and her face seemed to be shocked and overwhelmed, as well as unspeakable fear.

"What's wrong with you?" I immediately asked.

"No, it......'s nothing," she said, her eyes dodging, as if to change the subject stiffly, "Speaking of which...... You seem to be familiar with people who don't die. ”

"It's not very familiar, but I've been in contact with it before." In addition to answering, I was also surprised by her attitude, and at the same time thinking about the change in her attitude just now. Did she see me as someone else?

If so, then who would make her unconsciously make an intimate gesture of hugging the crook of her arm?

Some unspeakable speculation naturally flashed through my mind. But how is that possible? It is a great insult to me to speculate about her like this. Besides, I'm just a perverted murderer, and I'm also the culprit who killed her husband, so where did I get the face to make such a guess, it's really shameless and there must be a limit. Thinking of this, I suppressed my unrealistic thinking.

She nodded in disbelief, and then fell silent.

β€”β€”

This is the end of the undead pollution incident of the Puqing City Security Bureau.

The person in charge was still not relieved, and he began to conduct a thorough internal investigation.

In fact, this is the normal approach, most of the people here have heard the news from somewhere before, but no one actually paid attention to it, no matter how you look at it, it has been invaded by the mental level. And even if it has been shaken off the impact now, it does not mean that you can rest assured.

But none of that has anything to do with me and Zhu Di now, and we're going to get to the real thing. The Undead Pollution Incident is just an episode, and our real target is the missionaries behind the scenes, as well as the forces on the eve of the city's operations.

We have just experienced such a dangerous incident that we should have taken a break for the night, but the situation is unique, and the next thing we need to do is meet with the informant.

The clue "The missionary is in Puqing City" was originally provided by this informant, and there was also a reservation for contact with him in the mission, and the meeting time was also agreed in advance. Because neither the informant nor his leads were taken seriously by the Security Bureau, the mission did not force contact with him, but I knew that the missionary was really in Puqing City, and I knew that his clues were genuine. Thinking that Zhu Dian and I have no way to find a missionary, it is better to try to see if we can use this informant as a breakthrough for follow-up.

The informant, nicknamed "Loser", was one of the missionary's demonic sorcerers, but chose to betray the missionary and reveal clues to the security bureau about his superiors' whereabouts.

He claimed that he had more and more important information and was willing to help the Security Service take down the missionaries, and in exchange, he hoped that the Security Service would absorb him and make him one of them.

However, demonic sorcerers are not to be trusted. We need him, but we also need to be wary of him, because he may be a false betrayal.

Considering that the bite is likely to be in cooperation with the missionary, it is possible that as soon as I come into contact with the loser, he will secretly press some signal transmitter to summon the bite blood; It's more likely that Bite Blood has already been ambushed there, and has already set up a magic circle to seal my "Soul Burning Mode" again and inflict a killing blow on me.

The meeting place was in front of a remote hardware store, and it didn't take long for us to find that place.
