Chapter Ninety-Six: At the moment, it seems like a dead end!
Eventually, Cha Hyun-so fainted again, and when he woke up, he was already locked in an isolation room.
But the stun gun in his hand still caught Lee Eun-hyuk's attention.
"Who made this?" Lee Eun-hyuk asked Xia Shang.
"An uncle upstairs."
"I think we need his help." Lee Eun-hyuk walked to the iron door of the apartment, "If you rely on these planks and chains alone, you may be attacked by monsters at any time, and if you want to ensure the safety of the residents on the first floor, you must strengthen the iron door again." ”
"But now it's getting dark."
According to Lee Eun-hyuk's observations, monsters become more active after dark, and it is obviously not a good choice to pick up people at this time.
"You're going to let me go?" Xia Shang asked with a frown.
Seeing that, Lee Eun-hyuk moved his gaze to the direction of the isolation room, and he shook his head: "It's too dangerous for ordinary people to go." ”
His meaning is very clear, he wants Cha Hyun-so to go, because in his opinion, Cha Hyun-so, as an infected person, is very emotionally stable, and compared to the other two infected people, Cha Hyun-so is obviously the best choice.
…………
Late at night, in a remote corner of the underground parking garage, a raging fire was burning, as if in the flames, a faint glimpse of a human figure.
The next day, Xia Shang returned to his room from the underground parking garage, and through last night's gasoline experiment, he had a deeper understanding of the talent of adapting to self-healing.
First of all, it takes a certain amount of time to adapt to the damage and evolve the counter mechanism, although he has not completely fused this ability, but judging from the performance of the spider monster, even if it is fully fused, it will not be able to erase this flaw.
Secondly, ordinary injuries can't allow themselves to evolve a countermeasure mechanism at all, and due to the fusion of Kimiko's self-healing ability, the wound usually heals automatically before he evolves the countermeasure, unless it is a broken arm and leg.
But the newborn arm, the degree of enhancement is quite limited, and it is still growing slowly, Xia Shang roughly calculated, after an arm is broken hundreds or thousands, the effect will be more amazing.
Of course, it doesn't mean that this talent is useless, when Xia Shang's self-healing ability reaches a level of metamorphosis, he can be reborn with a broken limb in a short time, or reborn with a drop of blood, maybe at that time, Xia Shang will be able to achieve his ultimate goal of immortality and infinite growth.
Therefore, the greatest role of this talent is to be a building block.
Become a cornerstone of the ultimate creature.
"Fortunately, it wasn't for nothing last night." Xia Shang changed into brand new clothes and stood in front of the mirror, and was burned by gasoline for a night, although he did not gain the ability to be immune to flames, but the heat resistance of the cells was greatly improved.
Xia Shang summoned the panel again to view all the talents.
[Adaptive Self-Healing Talent Fusion, Current Progress 43%] [Swordsmanship Talent, Transformation, Transfer, Radio Wave Induction, Extreme Control, Carbon Superlight, Self-Healing Enhancement (can be fused with Adaptive Self-Healing), Laser Eye (Blue), Gluttony Enhancement. 】
These talents seem to be a lot, but in Xia Shang's opinion, they are far from enough, at least compared with the motherland, his defects are very obvious, physique, strength, flight, speed, etc., these are his shortcomings.
The few that can be compared with the motherland are probably only self-healing and defense capabilities.
Xia Shang's defense capability now mainly relies on carbon superbrightness, but carbon superbrightness is likely to be unable to block the laser eyes of the motherland.
After tidying up his clothes, Xia Shang returned to the hall on the first floor and filled his stomach at will.
I saw Lee Eun-hyuk walk into the isolation room.
Soon, he brought Cha Hyun-so out, and judging from the expression on Cha Hyun-so's face, he should have agreed to Lee Eun-hyuk's conditions.
Seeing Cha Hyun-so follow Bian Sang-wook upstairs together, Xia Shang had no intention of following, but turned around and walked into a room where no one was around, and since his fusion had not yet ended, he would not be able to use the analysis ability if he went hunting monsters.
What's more, he is also facing a big trouble now, where can he still care about Cha Hyun-so's life and death.
The moment the door was closed.
The dark-eyed mirror image appeared behind him, and he stretched out his hands, covering Xia Shang's eyes and pulling him into the mirror space.
There is no difference between the mirror space and the outside world, the only anomaly is that it is a little distorted, but if you don't look closely, it's hard to spot this subtle difference.
"Is there an end?" Xia Shang had a cold face, turned his head to look at his desire mirror, the growth speed of this desire mirror was far beyond his imagination, and his appearance was no longer under Xia Shang's control.
Unlike the previous mirror, this mirror's intelligence level is significantly higher.
And the strength is also even stronger, and he can actually pull him into the mirror space anytime and anywhere, you know, this is something that can't be done until the gluttonous desire is completely fused.
"Kill me." Desire Mirror said with a smile.
"Okay." Xia Shang did not hesitate, turned his arm into a sharp blade, and cut it into two pieces.
I saw that blood did not flow from the wound of the mirror image of desire, but extended a black liquid like oil, and after being entangled with each other, the two bodies were reglued together.
At the same time, a wound spread from Xia Shang's right shoulder to his abdomen, and with the pain of drilling his heart, red blood gushed out.
It's obviously the injury he caused to the mirror image, but it's fed back to him, how did the other party do it?
Fortunately, his recovery ability is not weak, just when his wound is about to heal.
"So what?" Mirror Image raised the fruit knife in his hand and stabbed it towards his heart, poof, black liquid flowed out along the blade, and immediately soaked the clothes on his chest, at this time, the corners of Desire Mirror's mouth showed a smile, as if expecting Xia Shang's reaction.
Xia Shang subconsciously looked towards his chest, only to see that a knife wound was also cracked in his heart.
"Damn it!" As his heart was destroyed, Xia Shang's strength was like a punctured balloon, leaking out of his head.
So far, the heart is second only to the brain in the importance of Xia Shang.
"Not good." Xia Shang manipulated the cells in his body to quickly fill the gap in his heart, and the whole process took about ten seconds.
"Don't be nervous, your desire is not to die, how can you die so easily?"
Mirror looked at Xia Shang with a smile, and then twisted the fruit knife stuck in his chest.
In an instant, a pectoris-like pain swept through Xia Shang's whole body in an instant, and the pain made Xia Shang can't help but clench his fists, his eyes are full of bloodshots, how is it possible? The other party is just a mirror image, how can it affect him?
Why did the previous mirror image never use this method?
The heart that had just been repaired was destroyed again, and the sense of loss of life made Xia Shang have no time to think about it.
Fortunately, he made two preparations, only to see that a tentacle drilled out of his back, and at the top of the tentacle was a freshly made heart, and the surface of the heart was slightly agitated, as if it was no different from a real heart.
Watching Xia Shang dig out the damaged heart and then fill in the new heart, seeing the mirror image of this scene, he couldn't help but applaud Xia Shang. "Wonderful, so wonderful, it was an eye-opener."
Xia Shang didn't make any response to the praise of the mirror image, only to see that he was expressionless, thinking about the key to breaking the game.
Does he have to completely kill the desires in front of him before he can get out of the mirror space? But the strange ability on the other side seemed to tell him that if he killed the mirror image, he would also die.
"Aren't you curious, why do I have such an ability, because I am the desire of you, your desire is not to die, and my desire is also not to want to die, so I have to bind the two of us, hehehe."
The mirror image walked up to Xia Shang and slowly pulled out the fruit knife on his chest.
At the moment, it seems like a dead end!
If you crush your desires, you will die, and if you don't crush your desires, you will always stay in the mirror space.
In the room, the fusion panel in front of Xia Shang was quietly fixed in the air, and the fusion progress on it was actually beating at an incredible speed, 43%... 55%… 63%……
The other side.
Cha Hyun-so offered to carefully examine each layer, because he knew that even if he was fatally injured, he could heal in a short period of time, and at this moment, Lee Eun-hyuk's words before he left came to his mind.
"You're the one who is about to turn into a monster and the best person to deal with the monsters in the apartment, and I hope you can think about the surviving residents of the apartment."
Byun Sang-wook didn't object, until he saw that every time Cha Hyun-so killed a monster, the blackness in his eyes would increase a little more.
Worried that he would be completely consumed by desire, he proposed to go directly to the fourteenth floor to pick up Han Doo-sik and the others.
Cha Hyun-so said yes, but when he came to the seventh floor, he stopped in front of a door, pointed to the green painted iron door and said, "I feel that there are monsters inside, let's catch them, we can do it." ”
At this time, his eyes had changed, and the deep black once again occupied his eyes.
After speaking, he pushed the door open, and at the same time, turned his head to look at Bian Shangyu, and said provocatively: "What? Are you scared? ”
Bian Shangyu sensed that his mood was not right, and reached out to pull him back, looking at the weird smile on this guy's face, Bian Shangyu understood that this guy was probably corrupted by desire again.
So a punch hit Cha Hyun-so in the abdomen, and Cha Hyun-so coughed like a boiled prawn, covering his stomach while covering it.
It was precisely because of this punch that Cha Hyun-so woke up again, and Cha Hyun-so looked at Bian Sang-wook blankly, not understanding what had just happened.
At this time, there was a sea of fire behind the door, and suddenly a monster's arm reached out from behind the door, and the monster grabbed Bian Shangyu and dragged him in.
The monster's arm is so long that it is impossible to see its body, the long-armed monster was originally an ordinary father, but when his son was captured by the monster, he fell into despair and gave birth to a strong desire.
If his hand is long enough, will he be able to grab his son's hand, and will his son survive?
It was this desire that eventually prompted him to become a long-armed monster.
Seeing that Byun Sang-wook was captured by a monster, in order to save people, Cha Hyun-so also rushed in.
But before he could catch up with the monster's arm, he was knocked out by another monster, and bang! Cha Hyun-so rolls around on the ground a few times before he realizes that the monster that crashed into him has extremely long legs and a red glow in his heart.
The Scud Monster used to be a track and field athlete who, after being overtaken by his best friend during a race, killed him and hid his body in a closet because he was jealous that his friend was doing better than him.
As the corpses decomposed, the wardrobe soon emitted a foul stench, which was unbearable for him, so after he became a monster, his whole face had no nose, and his greatest desire was to go a little faster until he surpassed everyone else.
The Scud was quite agile, and just as it was about to pounce on Cha Hyun-so, it was chased away by a bow and arrow from behind him.
The duo who shoot the bow and arrow are named Park Yoo-ri and Ahn Ji-sub, the former is a good-looking girl, but she suffers from asthma, and because she used to be a nurse, she knows how to treat and bandage.
The latter is an old gentleman wearing reading glasses, who has lived in the Green Home apartment for the longest time, and has been told by doctors that he has less than half a year to live, but he has always lived well.
The sea of fire in the corridor was caused by them.
The bows and arrows in their hands, specially modified to burn as soon as they are fired.
"Be careful." Seeing Cha Hyun-so covering his shoulders and walking towards him, Park You-ri did not hesitate to aim her bow and arrow at him.
The long-armed monster fell in front of her, apparently burned alive, and Bian Sang-wook was lying next to the monster, and after Park Youli squatted down, she reached out and touched his pulse, "It's still alive." ”
Then several people came to the house of the uncle Han Doo-sik together.
…………
The picture came to Xia Shang again.
Of course, he didn't know what happened to Cha Hyun-so, and at the moment he was thinking about how to revitalize the death situation in front of him.
"No, since you don't want to die, how could you risk stabbing yourself in the heart, I don't believe you would know my ability, otherwise you wouldn't have shown a surprised expression just now." The corners of Xia Shang's mouth gradually rose, and soon he found the loophole in the mirror words.
"The reason why you chose to do this shows that you yourself understand that you can't kill me in this way, you just want me to have a desire to not want to die, I'm right."
Instead, Xia Shang calmly inserted his hand into his pocket and looked at the mirror image with a calm face.
The expression on Mirror's face didn't change at all, and he raised his right hand and aimed the tip of his knife at his temple, "Are you sure?" Once this knife is in your head, I don't believe you can live, don't pretend, I can feel the worry and fear in your heart. ”
The mirror smiled fearlessly.
"Whatever." Xia Shang looked indifferent, as if he didn't care about his actions.
"You're not afraid of death? Hahahaha, no one will be afraid of death, what are you pretending to be? ”
"Then give it a try." Xia Shang really didn't seem to care, a pediatric trick like this, once it was seen through, was nothing.
He firmly believes in his own judgment.
"Then give it a try!"
Say it! The mirror image suddenly exerted force, and actually plunged all the blades into the temple!
