Chapter 158 The Star Lady is Cowardly and Teasy (61)
[Oh my god, what the hell is this? Ahhhhhh, so scary! ]
[How bizarre! I've never seen anything this ancient in the interstellar world. Even this person looks like an antique.]
[No, are you sure that's a human? Why does it feel like something like the one in the storybook left behind by those people from Blue Star... a ghost?]
[Just to give you some information, I specialize in studying Blue Planet history. This appears to be a remnant of an ancient building from ten thousand years ago on Blue Planet. It must be considered very precious. This is the first time I've seen something so well-preserved. Please cherish it while you can.]
[Yeah, maybe it will be gone when the fight starts.]
"That's not right. Didn't you notice Hei Xu seems to be nearby? Do you think they'll run into each other?"
[Yeah, ahh ...
......
"You guys wait here first."
After saying that, Feng Yuan walked in front, strode to the nearest stall in his military boots, picked up three masks, handed something to the person opposite, and walked back.
Wen Shiyun opened her eyes slightly. If she saw correctly, what the man handed over was—
Polluted core...???
Feng Yuan slowly put on a white snakeskin mask on his face, then handed her and Yu Mingming a white fox mask and a cat mask respectively.
She reached out to take the cat's.
Feng Yuan stretched out his hand holding the cat mask and placed it directly on Yu Mingming's hand. Then he smoothly put the white fox mask forward and put it on her face.
"Yes, it suits you very well."
The man's golden eyes narrowed slightly, and even though he was wearing a mask, she could inexplicably see a hint of joy in them.
He was very calm and not frightened at all by the strange situation here. Instead, he seemed very comfortable.
Even know what is used in the trade here.
Everything was very strange.
Wen Shiyun pursed her lips and didn't have time to be picky. She followed the man's hand and put on the mask.
Actually, it doesn’t matter if it’s not a cat, and the focus right now is not on the mask.
After she put it on, she subconsciously looked behind the man——
The masked man who had been looking at them in unison resumed his course of action, as if he was temporarily not focusing his attention on them.
"What...are they?"
It was so weird. If she wasn't in the interstellar world, she would have thought she had escaped from a haunted house...
"It's a human, but also a monster."
Wen Shiyun didn't understand, "What do you mean?"
"This is the burial place of the SS-rank Sentinel. The spiritual energy within his mental image eventually fed back into this area, forming a domain scene and transforming the nearby monsters back to their original pre-mutation state."
"However, this change is like covering one's ears and stealing the bell, and it cannot change their essence."
"They are still monsters in essence, but because monsters live together, they consider themselves to be one of the same kind."
"And most of their kind won't kill their own kind."
That’s why we have the false peace we see now.
-
Wen Shiyun nodded silently, but there was still clear confusion in her light brown pupils.
"But why are they all wearing masks?"
Feng Yuan slowly explained, "It's not the masks they wear, it's the consciousness here that compels them to wear them. Once the masks on their faces are taken off, they will realize that they are not human, and the mirage left by the SS-level guide will disappear instantly."
Wen Shiyun frowned. No wonder there were such well-preserved ancient buildings. It turned out to be a mirage.
She couldn't help but think of the time when she sent an emergency teleportation to the Shixu Realm...an inferior galaxy full of steel, gasoline and other materials.
Humans and monsters mixed together, and even humans integrated into the monster circle for disguise, and gradually forgot what they looked like.
Just to survive.
"Then what are we doing here? I remember Winter mentioned that ordinary monsters don't have contaminated cores."
"Not only for the purpose of polluting the core, but also for the things left behind by the deceased SS-class sentinel, things that can sustain the normal life of this mirage."
Wen Shiyun paid some attention to scan Yu Mingming's face, but was surprised to find that after hearing the man say that they were not here to pollute the core, she did not raise any objections at this time. It seemed that she cared about the result of this competition, but why?
Unless she knew that there was something more important here than the contaminated core.
Wen Shiyun bit her lip, looking a little puzzled.
She had seen the crazy and ugly appearance of those mutated monsters and mutants, and the peace she was maintaining now was hard-won.
If that thing were to be removed, the peace here would be broken, and everything would return to its truest and ugliest form...
Feng Yuan seemed to see through her emotions, his eyes flickered slightly, "This is all false peace. You have to know that this place doesn't exist at all."
"Besides, aren't these walking corpses monsters? They're just giving themselves psychological comfort."
When he said this, his expression was a little strange. On the surface, it seemed like he was talking to her, but in fact, it seemed more like he was trying to convince himself.
What if the monsters or mutants here were his former soldiers... would he still say such sober words so coldly?
-
Wen Shiyun's thoughts were in a mess, and her eyes flashed slightly. She quickly sorted herself out, raised her head, and said stubbornly, "I didn't say anything. I know all this! Let's go!"
After saying that, she urged the two to follow in, but the clues she had seen before flashed through her mind unconsciously.
She suddenly thought of what her spirit body had seen when it went down to the underground of the experimental base.
[Research direction: Try to restore the self-awareness of mutants so that they can understand instructions.]
And the last part of the third phase of the laboratory was erased,
[Phase Three Test Results: After the mutants regain self-awareness, they will likely riot again. We need...]
What exactly is needed? Have researchers in Interstellar found it?
She was inexplicably concerned.
-
Wen Shiyun followed the footsteps of the two people in front of her and didn't even notice the changes in the scene around her.
When she came to her senses, she suddenly realized that the road that was originally occupied by three people had suddenly become...only she was left.
There are monsters wearing Peking Opera masks all around.
Ferocious, numb, and dull.
She lost her direction and stood there in a daze. She looked down and found that
Soles of feet
She didn't know when she stepped on a Peking Opera mask...
My heart froze in an instant.
