Chapter 18: The Call of the Old Gods
The personnel of the FBI's anomalous project team were near Qin Yu's house and set up a device to isolate the disaster in advance.
The warp value in the area has soared to a dangerous level of 110, which is not good news for first-time inviters of the Comedown.
Especially when the data fed back from the testing equipment in a timely manner, Qin Yu's vital signs were captured at 2:34 in the morning, and suddenly fell to the bottom.
Whether it is heart rate or blood oxygen saturation, it all shows that Qin Yu is already a dying person.
The investigators of the anomalous project team had almost anticipated the accident that would occur during the disaster.
Meng Xun looked down at his watch.
As the most ordinary inviter, she had struggled to survive the heavier-level catastrophic for nearly four hours.
Whether the final result is successful or not, she deserves to be respected.
It is...... It's a bit of a pity......
If she survives a disaster of this magnitude, she will be an indispensable force for the Federation.
The current situation is unpredictable, and the inexplicable and irregular disaster is enough to cause headaches, and now there is suddenly a Dream Cube battle royale shared by many people......
Meng Xun retracted his gaze, his expression extremely solemn.
Qin Yu on the bed also had a painful look, and large and small wounds appeared on her body one after another, some of which were deep and bone-deep.
To make matters worse, the otherwise clean bed turned out to be a pool of blood.
A woman with long hair was meticulously guarding Qin Yu's bedside, and since she sat down, the shaking emperor bell in her hand has never stopped, and the crisp and pleasant ding dong sound is like a requiem, and the invisible hands soothe the tormented Qin Yu again and again.
When the woman found the pool of blood, she used her body to block the constant sight behind her, and after gently lifting the quilt, she found that Qin Yu's left hand was gone, replaced by an extremely uneven cross-section.
It looks a lot like a wound from the bite of some kind of beast.
She didn't have anyone to bandage her, and the injuries she suffered during the disaster would be reflected in reality, but the treatment in reality could not help those in the disaster.
A young investigator couldn't help but ask Meng Xun beside him: "Team Meng, do you want to be contained in advance?"
The so-called early containment is to humanely treat the invitee in advance when it is confirmed that there is no possibility of survival, and this is also to alleviate the pain that the invitee endured in the last moments.
Of course, there is some controversy within the Federation about the special method of early containment.
Some people believe that whether or not the inviter has the possibility of survival, this decision related to life and death should not be arbitrarily asserted under the subjective assumptions of others.
Whether it is a way of life or a dead end, the person concerned should be left to walk on his own.
However, it is also believed that when the distortion value of the disaster area reaches a certain danger level, in order to reduce the pollution of the real world after the sudden death of the inviter, it can be contained in advance as appropriate.
And Qin Yu's current situation just meets these two points.
Meng Xun looked at Zhao Zhiru, who was still guarding Qin Yu's side, and shook his head: "Our group has never set a precedent for early containment, and we won't tonight." ”
Tonight's incident happened suddenly, and the investigator who put forward the opinion was not a member of Meng Xun's group, so at the moment when multiple forces converge, it is inevitable that there will be some differences.
It was some time again.
"Team Meng! Team Meng! The investigator, who had been keeping an eye on the testing equipment, suddenly stumbled over, "The tester's values and vital signs are starting to pick up!" ”
You know, there has never been such a thing as resurrection, either in the Federation or in the disaster.
Tonight, they had an unprecedented miracle.
*
"With a heart rate of 80 and a blood oxygen saturation of 98%, the tester has been successfully out of danger and has completed self-healing under unknown forces!"
"The highest distortion value at the center point in the area is 120 and the average value is 110!"
"The tester is showing signs of awakening!"
"me, if I'm not mistaken, she didn't kill the cataclysm...... But he managed to escape from the disaster??? ”
"Shhhh He Qiao, be quiet! ”
"Qin Yu? Xiaoyu? Can you hear me? ”
"Let me be quiet...... But your voice isn't any lower than mine......"
"Shut up."
“……”
Outside the window, the morning light is faint, and a new day comes from the darkness and from the light.
Qin Yu seemed to hear those noisy sounds in a hazy way, and her consciousness had obviously swept over the surrounding existence, but her body seemed to be pressed against a thousand catties of heavy stones, making her unable to move.
Just as she tried to break free from her restraints, the familiar feeling of oppression swept over her head again.
It was as if she had been teleported to the cold, death-filled depths of the sea.
She knew He was coming.
Wipe......
Why did you choose it at such a time......
But I don't know if her words at that time played a role, although the coercion this time was still so disturbing and frightening, at least it didn't make her faint instantly.
It seems that they are not incommunicative with each other.
She resisted the trembling that she was about to kneel, and the contradiction of wanting to speak but not being able to speak made her almost collapse.
[Kill more catastrophic substances]
After the long series of syllables with unknown intonation fell into Qin Yu's ears, they were automatically transformed into human language.
The language barrier between them was also broken at this moment.
He gave the first command.
Does He have any unspeakable old grudges with the catastrophs?
At this moment, there were questions about him, and they reached a small climax in Qin Yu's heart.
The old gods and the catastrophe, in the darkness she seemed to see a way to crack the catastrophe.
Could she use this to divide herself?
For a moment, countless wild conjectures crossed her mind.
[Kill at least one cataclysm per day]
Qin Yu: "??? ”
Are you thinking about fart eating?
Or at least one?
I can't protect myself right now!
It's me who is on the death list in the Dream Cube!
But on second thought, his proposal also has some reference value.
Now is not the time to respond to the enemy, but if she doesn't provoke the catastrophic creatures, the catastrophic creatures will come and provoke her!
The immortal's words are still in my heart: "I don't know if the next time the dream will dominate the alien catastrophe, but one thing is certain, even if it is not the master, it will keep pestering you until you succeed in killing the target." ”
In other words, the normal inviter only needs to concentrate on one entity in the area when entering the Calamity, and she will have to deal with two!
Alien and another trouble.
Rub, just thinking about it is stimulating......
Therefore, the only way to protect yourself at the moment is to keep getting stronger, and to wipe out the other party before being killed by the catastrophic thing!
So at the moment when the blood was on the head, she almost didn't think about answering his order.
But she soon regretted it.
I blame myself for agreeing too quickly just now, and I actually forgot to bargain with the other party!
The awe and fear of the other party before have been much weaker driven by interests.
She had forgotten how to write the word fear now, and her face was glowing with calculation.
How do you get the problem back?
The two sides were silent for a moment.
His voice sounded again:
[As compensation, you will receive a corresponding blessing after each successful kill]
Ha?
Blessing?
How does it sound ethereal?
In the air, there was another unbearable silence.
Qin Yu's consciousness suddenly appeared in a light panel that did not belong to him:
You have been blessed by Ashland: Hidden Shadows.
[Main effect: It can achieve invisibility, making it difficult for the other party to detect their whereabouts.] At the same time, the blessed will become more flexible and swift in their actions.
[Special note: This blessing is one-time and can last for 10 minutes after it takes effect]
[Friendly reminder: please hide your little tail]
Looks pretty good.
It's this one-time that is a bit heart-wrenching.
But you can't be too greedy, it's better than nothing.
As for the last sentence "Please hide your little tail", for some reason there is always a bad taste in it.
While Qin Yu received the blessing, she also kept an extra eye.
The other party showed some kindness in these two performances, but this does not mean that he is completely trustworthy.
Qin Yu doesn't believe anyone except for herself and the guy who saved her life at the moment.
First, she had to figure out His purpose.
What is the necessary connection between His appearance and the coming of the plague and the cataclysm?
And why was he so obsessed with killing catastrophic creatures alone?
And it also stipulates that at least one kill a day is required, which is a clearly restrictive order, which can't help but remind her of a bold guess.
Is there a possibility......
Does He need cataclysms to serve some kind of purpose that benefits him?
For example......
Eating?
The moment this thought was generated in his mind, an extremely intense pain also came to him.
Qin Yu suddenly felt that her body was unstable, and her feet were so weak that she fell directly to the ground.
Thou shalt not look directly at God, nor claim to be God, nor fathom Him.
These few survival-like thoughts flashed chaotically in front of her eyes in an instant.
This time, it was she who crossed the line.
Their conversation came to an end at this moment, and as the Divine Domain disintegrated, she slowly escaped from the oppression.
She stood up from her awkward kneeling almost with her hands propped up.
Ha......
It's not completely fruitless.
At least she guessed partially.
From the fact that he shares the same body with stray cats, it is not difficult to see that he may have encountered some kind of irresistible trouble.
And when she was called, the dying appearance also confirmed her conjecture.
As for eating.
It was the hunting tentacles that inspired her, and the reason why she was able to escape at that time was also carried out according to this thinking.
Plus the huge corpses that later disappeared into thin air, as well as a description of the task force.
It shows that it was indeed He who dealt with the hunting tentacles.
For now, His relationship with the catastrophic is hostile.
As for why she got such a strange curse, and why she inexplicably summoned the old gods in the curse.
This is worth scrutinizing.
However, at the moment, their relationship is still complementary to each other.
Qin Yu smiled suddenly.
The idea of becoming stronger became clearer in this moment.
Someday, she will figure out all the doubts at the moment.
So, before that day comes, try to get stronger!
