713. Exploring Fantasy 6
"Sorry to worry you." Doya wiped the sweat from her head, trying to calm her mind from the illusion.
"It's okay, just sit here and rest, there are still two people over there who haven't come out of the illusion." Su Yu took out the stool she had just made from the portable workbench and put it next to her.
Doya nodded and sat down beside her.
Because it was a long bench, Doya could only occupy less than half of the space by herself, and Vivien saw this and transferred directly from her original position.
"Do you need desensitization treatment?" Before she sat down, Vivien said something to Doya that she didn't understand.
"Take off ...... What treatment? What is it? Doya had just come out of the illusion, and her head was a mess, not to mention that she didn't hear what Vivien had just said, and she didn't even know when the other party sat down.
"It's desensitization, a new word that the lord told me." Vivien briefly explained the meaning of the word, which simply means that what they are afraid of, what they are afraid of, they must gradually accept these things that they are afraid of through a series of methods.
This process is called desensitization therapy.
Just now they followed Lua into the dark passage and smoothly came to the treasure house, but they all found themselves in a familiar place after entering, and this was the illusion that the copy had woven for them.
Most people enter their own home, because it is the most familiar, the most relaxing, and the easiest place for them to indulge in.
Even if someone wakes up from the illusion and realizes that all the good things are illusions, there may be people who choose to continue to indulge because they are unwilling to get rid of the illusion of beauty.
In addition, there are those who successfully distinguish the illusion and choose to break away, but after disengagement, they cannot get rid of the emotional influence they have already received in the illusion.
To put it simply, most people are easily troubled by emotions and desires, and it is precisely this that Illusion grasps this, so it uses this to weaken their combat effectiveness.
For example, Doya's current situation is actually not very good.
Although she knew that everything she had just seen was a fantasy weaved to deceive and provoke her, she still couldn't get rid of watching her father being besieged and killed by wolves, and she could only stand and watch, like a controlled puppet, unable to move.
She watched as the wolves gnawed away her father's body bit by bit, and finally even the bones were taken away, scattered and scattered, and there was no corpse.
Not to mention that this is her biological father, even if it is just to see a stranger being treated like this, the average psychological quality will leave a psychological shadow.
What's more, Doya already has a shadow of this, not to mention that it was her father who was lying there and being tortured.
So she couldn't break free from it, and could only be tortured by the illusion over and over again, watching her complete body turn into white bones...... Sixteen times!
This is the scariest part of the illusion.
After it has identified your fears, it will replay these things countless times, forcibly destroying the will of the person.
"Doya!" Vivien looked at the people around her with a little dazed eyes, and her heart was not good, and then while shaking the people, she took out the freshly made awakening potion from her space bag.
As the name suggests, the effect of the potion is mainly to make people's minds clear, and it can play a big role in the illusion, but it cannot completely eliminate the negative effects caused by the illusion...... After all, it can't erase memories, nor can it give people the courage to resist fear, it's just an ordinary potion.
The cool and stimulating smell came to her face, and Doya closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, her eyes were clear.
"Thank you...... Can that treatment be done now? Doya tried to stop remembering that horrible episode, but she knew she couldn't do it alone, because even if she couldn't help but think about it, the illusion would deliberately remind her of her memory.
For example, she had just seen that in the treasure house where they were now, there was a bow wrapped in a worn-out strip of cloth in a corner.
This bow was exactly the same as the one she had seen in her vision, next to her father!
But obviously, how could such a worn-out bow end up in the merfolk treasury?
So this is a fantasy placed here on purpose!
"Of course, this bow is your shadow?" Doya was the third-to-last to get out of the illusion, so before her, Vivien had already helped others with the same desensitization treatment.
As a result, she became accustomed to the presence of certain items in the treasury that were obviously out of place, but had a significant impact on these people.
"Yes." Doya nodded in acknowledgment, her breathing still a little shorter from the fear she had tried to suppress.
Soon, however, with Vivien's help, she was able to break free from her nightmarish memories.
Su Yu watched the negative state under Doya's status bar disappear completely, and slowly exhaled.
Although this negative state will only exist in the dungeon and will disappear after leaving the dungeon, no one can say whether they will be able to successfully clear the dungeon if there is a negative state.
And one of the most unfortunate situations is that this negative status can be stacked, and once it exceeds their capacity, then this negative state will deepen into a 'permanent state', that is, after leaving the dungeon, the negative status will still exist and become their permanent shadow.
In order to avoid these situations, Su Yu would rather spend more time here and let Vivian treat them one by one, so that he could continue to do the copy with confidence.
Fortunately, Vivien does have the relevant dispel skills, otherwise she would have been ready to leave the dungeon directly.
That's right, the so-called desensitization treatment is actually just a formality, and what really works is actually a skill that Vivien, a healing magician, has learned to dispel negative mental states.
As for why she made a simple skill so complicated...... In fact, anyone who understands Vivien's personality should be able to guess a thing or two.
For example, Doya, she was just troubled by a negative state, so she didn't notice anything wrong, and when the state disappeared, she found that Vivien's words and deeds just now had many loopholes.
But she didn't care, because Vivien didn't do anything excessive, otherwise she wouldn't be angry herself, and the lord wouldn't have allowed her to mess around at such a time.
At this time, another half an hour had passed since Doya got out of the illusion, and everyone looked at the two people who were still in a state of 'demonic shock' in the clearing in front of them, and their faces showed worry.
