Even if they don't know who the speaker is, the apprentice can feel the unwillingness and jealousy.

It was as if he had drawn a glimmer of strength from it.

The power made him feel comfortable, like someone gently massaging his temples.

Suddenly, the other person's voice changed.

"No, how can I think that...... This is a blasphemous and shameful thought, and I should not trample on my own self-esteem. ”

The familiar burning sensation appeared......

"Fart!" The apprentice immediately shouted: "Are you still numbing yourself? ”

He was amazed at how he could think of it in a split second, as if it were instinct.

He didn't think much about where he got his vocal organs, or if it wasn't "vocalization" at all.

"Who? Who's talking? Who's invading my mind? ”

The voice suddenly alerted.

The apprentice instantly felt the resistance of the room to him, as if he would be cut off at any moment.

"It doesn't matter who I am." He said.

He also couldn't answer the question because he didn't have a name.

He used to have, but as he left McCalalla to embrace a new life, completely cut off from his past, and lost the name his mother had given him.

He was apprenticed under Collins, who did not need a name to call him.

He's like a magic quill or a magic umbrella leaning against a corner.

He is automatically present when Collins needs him, and he is in standby mode when he is not.

"I'm here to keep you awake, don't numb yourself with any self-esteem and nobility, that's all the rhetoric made by others to turn you into a pug, that despicable hillbilly just overtook you with dishonorable means, he's trampling on the rules! Trampling you! ”

Resistance suddenly weakened.

"But, but...... He didn't surpass me, he was always just an underground lover who couldn't see the light......"

"Ha ......"

The apprentice let out a mocking chuckle.

He seemed to be able to hear the sound of the other party's sudden heavy breathing and reddened face after this.

"Do you really think so? Come to think of it, is he really 'just' a lover? Think about how he laughed at you when he slept with that woman in his arms—

"You're a 'foreigner' on top, and he's a hillbilly. Their hard work, restraint, awe, and faith are not as simple as the lowly him taking off his pants!

"Hahaha, hard-working clown, your story deserves an entire page in "Laughing"!"

In an instant, it seemed that countless piercing mockers rang out, rushing to the lonely room.

"Shut up! Do not blaspheme the Servants! ”

The voice was so angry, yet so weak.

The resistance did not grow stronger in the slightest, but weakened.

"Servants? Hahaha......"

The apprentice's laughter grew sharper and sharper.

"Who is she serving? It's not you anyway hahahaha......"

There was no response to this, and the apprentice only felt a wave of malice fermenting in the house.

It was as if he was standing on the top of a mountain, and with a slight push, the other party staggered and slid completely into the abyss.

That's right!

This growing malice made him extremely comfortable!

The scorched wound seemed to be covered with a cool ointment, making him want to moan comfortably.

He felt that he was growing stronger and his mind was becoming active.

More malevolent and blasphemous thoughts were converging, and it was as if he felt a myriad of his kind waiting for him beyond the darkness.

He was suddenly able to penetrate the room.

He saw that more than half of the soul inside had become cloudy, and two halos tugged at his body, causing him to constrict in pain.

That's reason.

"You don't deserve to be tortured, there's nothing wrong with you.

"Throw away your sanity and party with me!"

The apprentice helped the other hand.

The soul was completely defiled, and spikes and two other hands grew from the twist.

Satisfied, he left and floated down to the next place.

He wants to save every soul who is still bound by reason, so that they can completely free themselves.

He had never had such a clear understanding.

He had never had such inflated ambitions.

…

In the meditation room, Collins saw two confused guards appear in the hallway, and he cut off the crystal ball's monitoring function.

He pulled out a bottle the size of a small thumb knuckle and used his wand to pick something black out of it.

It's an ember.

The black mist intertwined into a helmet that protected his head from within.

Then he activated the soul lantern on his body, which was wrapped in a miserable white light.

After doing all this, he pushed the door open and walked out.

At this time, three guards with strange behaviors had appeared in the hallway.

As if they had just tamed their limbs, they staggered towards a higher-spec housing complex.

As Collins passed by, they ducked, looking terrified.

But when Collins passed the door of one of Ian's attendants, who was also a fifth-level totem master, the door suddenly exploded, and a short black man rushed out of it.

As if he had anticipated the opponent's attack, Collins appeared twelve meters away in a flash of light, leaving an illusion in place.

The dwarf with a hideous face and drooling suddenly pounced, but the illusion exploded, and countless glass shards pinned it to the wall, only to let out a whimper of pain.

In the blink of an eye, Collins was gone.

…

"I see."

Inside, halfway through Simon's speech, Heine felt a chaotic consciousness trying to invade the room.

But as he activated the soul lantern core he carried with him, that will quickly receded.

"There should be a lot of people outside the house who are not strong-willed and are controlled by strange beasts."

He clasped the bottle containing the anger and looked at Teacher Xia.

"Our room is relatively backward, theoretically the further forward and the higher the specification of the room, the stronger the protection ability, are you sure to kill all the way through?"

Teacher Xia turned the dagger twice and stood directly at the door.

"I'm ready."

"Okay."

Heine uncorked the bottle and put himself into melee form, then handed Simon the core.

"Grab it and stay behind me."

A pitch-black shield took shape in Heine's hand, and then slammed into the door in front of him.

…

In the hallway, a mutated monster lies on a wall.

From here it smells the fragrance of thought, which is the reason that needs to be tarnished so badly.

But it couldn't find a door to enter, so it had to instinctively explore the wall.

Bang!

The wall exploded, and a black shield flew it up, slamming it against the wall behind it.

Sawdust flew and smoke flew everywhere.

A broken wooden door appeared in the place where it was still a wall.

"Ho-"

The monster let out a low growl, but before it could fight back, a ray of light swept through its neck.

Then the flesh shriveled, and the head gurgled and rolled to the ground.

The movement here was like a thunderclap, and the other monsters in front of the corridor were all attracted to it.

In the face of the vast number of enemies, Mr. Xia was not frightened at all, and rushed forward like a ghost.

Heine was in no hurry to follow.

He used the spirit ember to condense an axe and directly split the head in front of him.

Inside the brain was a swollen transparent heart, and lilac veins connected the brain and flesh, apparently a strange beast hatching.

Smack

He stomped on the thing and walked forward with Simon.

It turned out that his transformation didn't come in handy.

These infected people are in a state of "imminent transformation", weak and terrifying.

They have lost their minds and are not strong enough to exert their original combat power, and the strange beasts have not yet hatched, and there is no new control core.

Teacher Xia was chopping melons and vegetables in front, and Heine was carrying an axe to be a splitter in the back.

Feeling the hot experience coming in, Heine gradually realized that something was wrong.

Too little to give!

These guards are basically level 4, but their experience is completely mismatched.

Even if Mr. Xia used a "good night" musket to shoot the head and kill the strange beast cubs together, the experience given did not change.

"If experience is a measure of individual strength 'attribution', then it means that part of the intensity of these people is transferred to the source of pollution?"

Heine thought.

Soon, the corridor was cleared.

So far, most of the dead have been the Slender Flyers, as well as the Nice and Dwarven guards.

Heine made his way to the high-profile guest room, and before he could knock, several doors opened on their own.

Ian, Thiara, and Renee walked out the door.

They had all been awakened by Heine, and each of them had a protective device, and their bodies were surrounded by various lights.

Xiala's chain of forgiveness is like a snake out of the cage, and the pale black halo also protects the little shadow in it.

"How did he do it?" She asked with a solemn face.

Heine: "Collins deliberately used the harmonic instrument to adjust everyone's souls to the same wave, and then polluted the harmonic sphere itself with a distorted consciousness, which was equivalent to polluting everyone's minds at the same time. ”

It's like a central air conditioner spreads a virus.

Heine thought to himself.

"It can't be!"

Renee exclaimed, "If that's the case, there must be a powerful source of pollution, and it's impossible to hide it from us!" ”

Heine: "First of all, if you do the foreshadowing in advance, you don't need a strong source of pollution, you only need a defined direction of pollution to cause a chain reaction.

"And secondly, what if this source of pollution can grow on its own, and is cultivated in the process?"

He nodded:

"If the source of pollution grows in the head, it's enough to hide it from everyone.

"I made a note of everyone on this ship, but when I checked the corpses of these monsters in the corridor just now, I found that most of the people below level four were dead, except for the apprentice of Collins, the unruly McCala."

Ian: "How could he be a source of pollution?" I saw him come out of the sterilization room several times. ”

"It sounds ridiculous, but I can feel it's him."

Heine tugged at the corners of his mouth.

The familiar hostility, the maddening of jealousy, was too much like him.

Others still have a layer of "superiority" to restrain their emotions, but the other party, who is also a Maikara, is fermented to the extreme.

And he was clearly coming for him and Simon, but was forced back by the lantern.

"Let's not talk about that, everyone, carefully gather the remnants and save people as much as possible."

Heine said solemnly: "I am sure that my people are already on the way, all we have to do is persevere, I hope it is not difficult." ”

Teacher Xia panicked when he heard this.

- Brother, don't set up this kind of flag!

Soon, the crowd found their guards in the remaining rooms.

Except for one of Ian's Level 5 guards, who received the lunch, everyone else was doing well.

But the doors of the two Vlitas battle mages were locked.

"It's too late to care about them."

Heine left with the others.

However, when they lifted the curtain and walked out of the tent, they were surprised to find ......

The sky above was purplish-red, and Quelkus's body was right in front of him.

Everything is shrouded in scarlet and magnificent arcs.
