Chapter 415: Silence
I don't know how long it took.
"What's wrong with me, what's going on?"
Chen Mo only felt that he was in a trance for a moment, and the sky changed from noon to night, and he couldn't remember what happened before.
Then he looked down at his arm.
On his arm, more than a dozen sets of scratches appeared, and the format of each scratch was the same as that of the night battle, with four vertical and one horizontal as a unit.
The sky was dark and the cold wind was howling.
Chen Mo looked around, there were still endless bones under his feet, and he was shrouded in a gray mist full of life.
He instinctively sensed that many days had passed since the night battle had been encountered.
As for exactly when he entered the gray mist, he had forgotten.
Chen Mo looked around.
By his side, only the people of the tour group, the lightning punishment team, and the surprise team remained, and as for the natural disasters of the other teams, they had all disappeared.
Suddenly.
His body stiffened, and it seemed as if a voice in his head was telling him not to be cranky and to focus on the way forward.
So he tended to instinctively, forcibly controlled himself, looked ahead with both eyes, and instinctively moved forward with his legs.
It seems that if he just shifts his gaze slightly, something very bad will happen.
Tian Tian walked quickly to Chen Mo's side.
"Chief, there are three more scratches on your arm, and it seems that we are still on the right track, and this is the forty-fourth time that you have suffered a silence."
Sweet voice, with a little crying.
Her eyes were sunken, forming two large dark circles, her ragged and embarrassed posture seemed to have not rested for many days, and her eyes were full of red bloodshots, like a demon in hell.
Sleepy and exhausted, she almost went crazy.
"Woo, chief, I'm afraid I'm really going to be unable to hold on."
Chen Mo instinctively had a sense of crisis.
Annihilation?
He forced himself to calm down.
He looked at his arm, and judging from the scratches, there were indeed three new wounds, and they must have been caused by himself with the evil sword, and deliberately prevented healing with the power of stone skin.
"Don't, don't come here!"
Suddenly.
The nightingale, who had always been calm, screamed in terror.
Chen Mo obviously wanted to turn his head to look, but instinct prompted him to stare at the front, and no matter how the nightingale screamed, he refused to look away.
"It's Sister Nightingale, she must have been napping just now, I'm going to help her."
Tian Tian left Chen Mo with a crying voice.
Chen Mo found out through the corner of his eye that everyone was like himself, moving forward like a walking corpse, looking ahead with dull eyes.
"Sister Nightingale, don't look at it anymore, everyone calm down!"
Tian Tian woke up the nightingale, and said in a crying tone: "I beg you, don't look in any other direction, as long as everyone listens to the leader and their eyes are focused on one place, they can't take advantage of the weakness, hold on a little longer, and the leader will be able to take us out." ”
Take them out yourself?
About a minute later.
The nightingale finally woke up from her frightened state, just like Chen Mo before, she resumed her walking corpse-like forward posture, her eyes were full of horror and doubt, she didn't understand why she was like this, she asked Tian Tian, and instinctively looked ahead, and followed the others step by step.
"Sweet."
Chen Mo's call made Tian Tian, who was constantly crying, walk over quickly.
"Boss, what's wrong?"
"What the hell happened, why can't I remember anything, what is silence?"
Hearing this, Tian Tian's eyes showed despair.
She wiped away her tears and patiently explained.
"It's been seven days since we worked together to kill the Night War, and the Soul Squad, the Iron Squad, and the Clover Squad took advantage of the chaos to defect, and then we encountered something that would steal all memories about it as soon as we saw it, and once we stopped looking at it, we would completely forget it, and we couldn't get rid of it, so you named it Annihilation."
Tian Tian's mouth is dry, and her eyes are desperate.
"Woo, chief, I really can't hold on."
"Tiantian, you must hold on!"
Chen Mo's scolding made Tian Tian instinctively wipe away her tears.
Chen Mo patted Tian Tian, he clenched his teeth, he also felt hesitant, confused, and helpless in his heart, he didn't even know what the enemy was, but as the captain, he had to give the team members confidence and take them out of danger.
Then something suddenly occurred to him.
"Then why are you okay?"
"I don't know, maybe it's because of the original shard, I can't see it at all, but I don't dare to rest, because as soon as you close your eyes, when you open them again, you will definitely see the silence, and I must wake you up as soon as possible."
Hearing this, Chen Mo pursed his lips and tried to analyze the situation.
After a while.
He asked what he feared most.
"What about the others?"
"Except for the Soul Squad, the Iron Blood Squad, and the Clover Squad, who chose to defect, I don't know what the situation is, and the others ...... All dead. ”
"All dead?"
Chen Mo confirmed it, breathing a little short.
"Didn't you save them?"
This time, Tian Tian fell into silence.
After a long time.
She gave an answer that made Chen Mo sweat coldly.
"In the beginning, I was trying to help them, until three days ago, everyone was too tired, the team fell silent more and more often, our pace was getting slower and slower, it was your order to give me up and take only the people around me."
And that's not all.
Tian Tian continued: "In fact, even the name of Silence, the fact that everyone's eyes will not encounter Silence, and the way forward by seeing the number of Silence after the fall are all experiences that you have summed up again and again in the previous seven days, and you have also analyzed that they have the power to devour memories, and once we stop looking at them, we will forget everything about them. ”
Tian Tian couldn't hold back her tears again.
"Especially in the past two days, the frequency of your experiments has become more and more frequent, and every time you wake up, it doesn't take much time for you to take risks again, take the initiative to fall, and always say that next time you will end it all......"
"Traveler, traveler!"
Lei Wu's voice seemed to be squeezed out of his throat.
His voice was hoarse, and he gasped heavily.
"Whether we can leave alive this time depends on you, I have always believed that you have certain qualities, just like my grandfather told me, some people always think that it is almost enough, but in fact, because every time it is a little bit worse, over time, it is only after the real strong man that he has distanced himself, I have always believed that you are a strong man."
Lei Wu walked forward step by step with his wand in hand.
His eyes were bloodshot and almost insane.
Seeing this, Tian Tian explained in despair: "Captain Lei Wu is the only one among us who has not yet fallen and has not seen the silence. ”
This also means that he, like Tiantian, has not slept for seven days.
Chen Mo clenched his teeth.
"Silence, silence, silence......"
He did everything he could to overcome his instincts, forcibly looking away and looking at the sky, the feeling of overcoming the instinct of fear was like opening his eyes for the first time in a swimming pool.
"Come, Silence, let me see what you are!"
Gradually.
In Chen Mo's eyes, the originally gray sky seemed to have undergone some changes.
He faintly saw a large black spider web, or a black crack that resembled a spider web structure, appear above the clouds.
The black cracks split the clouds and mist as far as the eye could see into countless pieces.
Chen Mo held his breath and forcibly calmed himself down, waiting for unknown changes.
Suddenly.
In his left hand, he instinctively took out the Evil Sword and held it tightly.
Until these black cracks like spider webs, clumps of black substance, like sludge-like creatures, opened their only eyes full of dark and evil light, like a dark vortex that devoured everything, leading to the unknown place, quietly looking at themselves.
Chen Mo once again instinctively summoned the Omega clone.
Moment.
The memories he had lost came like a flood!
Taking advantage of the siege of the Mithril squadron in the night battle, the Iron Blood Squad, the Soul Squad, and the Clover Squad defected, and Chen Mo chose to stay after a short thought.
According to the night battle, even if it is now to escape from the bones of the Gobi, it is already too late.
Instead of acting alone, it is better for everyone to get together and wait for the opportunity to move.
Then the crowd was silenced.
The first few days.
"This unknown thing, maybe it's a supernatural phenomenon, maybe it's a creature we can't understand, maybe it's a mechanical program, maybe it's an evolutionary flaw on our part, it's something like an allergic reaction, in short, let's call it extinction!"
After Chen Mo suffered silence for the first time, he left scratches on his body similar to those on Ye Zhan's body.
Every scratch represents a death he has encountered.
"One, two, three, four, five, this time we have seen a total of five silences, and we can only have a chance to escape if we continue to advance towards the area where silence is sparse."
His own proposal was agreed to by An Lan.
At the same time, Tian Tian also found that she couldn't see the so-called silence at all.
"As long as two people's eyes are focused on one place, the silence will not appear, and when we see the silence, it will swallow up all our memories of it, and when we look away from the silence, we will lose all memories of them."
A few days afterward.
The people of the Mithril Squadron were so tired that they began to fall silent frequently.
Tian Tian continued to rescue, but at the cost of the fact that everyone could barely move forward.
So Chen Mo made a decision to give up on the others.
He told Tian Tian not to rescue the other team.
It wasn't until a long time after the tour team, the lightning punishment team, and the surprise team left that Chen Mo still seemed to be able to hear the desperate calls of the people behind him, trying to awaken Chen Mo's guilt, but he didn't waver.
Chen Mo, who was desperate, began to frequently take the initiative to fall into silence.
"It's not just about the memories of the Silence, the Silence will gradually devour all the valuable memories of the Fallen, until the Fallen become the Walking Dead."
"No, it steals our memories and stuffs other things into our souls......"
"I think I've found a way to defeat Silence!"
"Next time, I will definitely be able to defeat them and take you out safely, hold on!"
"Next time, I will definitely succeed!"
"Hold on a little longer, Tiantian, I'm almost done......"
A large number of memories of extinction emerge from the Omega clones.
At the same time, his right hand couldn't help but swing the evil sword, leaving new scratches on his arm, and deliberately controlling the stone skin talent to prohibit healing.
In Chen Mo's eyes, there were a total of three silences.
So he was left with three scratches.
"If Silence wants to drain the mind from the soul, it must first stuff in all kinds of distracting thoughts, so that the will in the soul overflows, so that the victim will eventually become a mad creature with only all kinds of distractions left......"
In Chen Mo's emerging memory, a key clue appeared.
This is the most important clue he has analyzed these days.
"So as long as you learn to control distracting thoughts, don't provide it with raw materials to squeeze out the subjective consciousness in the soul, or take the initiative to hide the subjective consciousness in the soul and don't give it a chance to steal it, you can avoid being stolen by it!"
Specific metaphors.
This is similar to the class in childhood, when the teacher is teaching on the podium, and some students seem to be listening carefully, but their minds are already wandering.
This is the miscellaneous thoughts that come with the growth of subjective consciousness.
Ordinary distractions are quickly forgotten.
However, silence can concretize all kinds of distracting thoughts that should be forgotten, forcibly stuff them into the soul of the victim, and then squeeze out the subjective thoughts in the soul for oneself to absorb.
So.
The fallen people who are filled with all kinds of distractions have gradually become crazy people in the eyes of normal people.
