Chapter 531: Icelandic Horror (65)
"Buzz, buzz."
"Buzz——"
"Mao Xiaole, take care of your sword, don't let it buzz anymore!"
In the virtual lobby of the hotel, where the jury members are in the expedition hall, and in the private rooms where the returnees are, there is a continuous buzzing sound like a swarm of bees flying around, disturbing people and disturbing them. Wang Yushu finally couldn't help but said, with a hint of sobs in his voice.
"Keng!"
The sharp-jointed fingers clasped the sword's edge, and blood flowed down. The buzzing sound was no longer, but the atmosphere became more solemn. Mao Xiaole no longer stood with his sword in his arms, nor did he have the calm posture that he had shown before. At this moment, his face was as frosty, and the cold sword edge was reflected in his pupils, twisting into a strong murderous intention. The sword has spirit, and the buzzing of the sword's edge is due to the murderous intention in his heart.
This situation has happened before, but normally Wang Yushu would have smiled and joked to lighten the atmosphere, but now he couldn't help but speak after being buzzed for less than a minute. It was obvious that his mood was also affected a lot.
"Ugh - it's so frustrating for the jury to be here!"
Lu Shucheng had turned into a wolf, circling back and forth anxiously, with a low growl suppressed in his throat. Hearing the voice of the live broadcast guest psychic, his eyes were fierce, as if he couldn't help but want to find a butcher guide to kill and vent his anger. Similar.
"This is the first time I've had this feeling."
Even the always calm Wan Xiangchun couldn't help but say, the golden and red Kunpeng's wings opened and closed in front of him, and the gorgeous feathers on the wings were trembling slightly. It’s not that their spirits have been seriously polluted. They managed to make it all the way home without a tour guide for so many years. As the strongest captain, An Xuefeng endured the most pressure, and the rest of them suffered from mental problems over time. There are many problems.
Especially when exploring the unsolvable journey, there are almost hallucinations every day and every night. The hallucinations are not only the silhouettes and sounds of companions that disturb the mind during battle, but also manifest in every aspect of life. At the most severe stage, the compressed biscuits looked like rotten flesh covered with maggots, the boiled instant noodles looked like a bucket full of pus and blood from human internal organs, and the water he drank looked like silt and sewage, filled with fly eggs.
Vision, smell, touch, hearing, taste, and loss of mental control lead to problems in various aspects. Even if you know there is nothing wrong with the food and there is nothing wrong with eating it, if something looks like rotten flesh, smells like rotten flesh, and tastes like rotten flesh, what does it matter whether it is normal or not?
Human consciousness will have a serious impact on the body. If you can eat these things without changing your mind for a long time, is it a human or a monster?
The returnees are all tolerant, determined and have their own channels to vent, and are assisted by name tags and other props. Lu Shucheng, who joined the team after five years of junior high school, is still not used to being so greedy for food. Wang Yushu and Wan Xiangchun also have their own characteristics. Each relief method. Normally, although they are tourists, the degree of mental pollution during the journey is no more than that of the tour guide.
Not to mention that the explorer is only a C-class tour guide, even if he is a B-class, B-class elite, or even an A-class tour guide, after the pollution that can make him return to zero is evenly distributed to all the returnees, logically they should not be allowed to lose their composure like this. .
But the connection with the tour guide is different. This is not a normal equal distribution of pollution, but a strange and unbearable subtle feeling that cannot be ignored by a strong will. If the explorer had one kind of feeling when he was about to die in the arena, then this time when his spirit was seriously polluted and almost returned to zero, everyone on the way home had another feeling.
Worrying about him and missing him uncontrollably feel like being thrown into a frying pan, and the feeling of being out of control is the real reason why they show all kinds of abnormal behaviors. Of course, it's also because you are surrounded by your own people now, so you don't need to hide too much.
"You'll get used to it, you'll get used to it, haha."
Wang Pengpai's fat face trembled slightly, and his exaggerated laughter was a bit false: "This shows that our guide Cui is strong. I think he is different from other tour guides, even if he returns to zero."
"Who looked at the posture just now and didn't think that Director Cui was about to return to zero? The devil merchants have returned, but Director Cui held on. Although we all feel panicked, Director Cui has indeed not returned to zero yet."
What Wang Pengpai said makes sense. Although the connected tourists can share the mental pressure of the tour guide, it is impossible for the tour guide not to return to zero. At most, he can still maintain his sanity after returning to zero. When a tour guide suddenly encounters a large-scale collapse or wants to return, it is impossible for tourists to stop him.
Having said that, looking at 'Wei Xun' whose sanity instantly returned to zero and regained his memory, Wang Pengpai thought of Captain An. If the connection between Dream Chaser and Zhang Xingzang is really as deep as that, Zhang Xingzang can bring Dream Chaser back to his senses from the verge of losing control and returning to zero, and the deeply connected tourists around him can also help the tour guide return to sanity. But An Xuefeng is not with Bingyi, and he is currently under the surveillance of the pre-match hotel, so it is difficult to influence him from a distance.
At most, Bingyi can stay rational.
When a tour guide's sanity drops to an extremely low level, there is a conflict between reason and out-of-control instincts. It's hard to tell whether a tour guide with only 1 point of sanity chooses to return to zero rationally, or whether he returns to zero under the influence of out-of-control emotions and spirit. The explorer has not returned to zero, which means that he has not reached his true limit and he has no intention of returning.
Why is this.
Wang Pengpeng was puzzled. Returning to zero could give the tour guide more power and more opportunities to fight. With the character of an explorer, in the form just now, he should return to zero.
"Actually, it's quite safe to return to zero in the competition."
Wan Xiangchun said, he folded his wings and looked basically as usual.
In the competition, the tour guides can be reset to zero for a maximum of one hour, and then the jury members will help them restore their san value directly. This is the key to the tour guides not dying or losing control.
"Not stable at all."
Mao Xiaole glanced outside grimly: "Director Cui's chips are not with us."
The jury members are the first brigade of the East District, Guitu, and the first brigade of the West District, White Church. It is estimated that considering that there are newcomers to Guitu and White Church in this warm-up competition, their teams do not have their own chips, and the others are divided equally. If Bingyi really resets to zero, it should be the people from the White Church who restore san for him after an hour, and the initiative is not in their hands.
"White Church has a grudge against the Butcher Alliance, who knows if they will do something."
Mao Xiaole snorted coldly, and the relationship between Guitu and White Church is not so good. Because of the title, most of the tourists in White Church are very old-fashioned, especially for the guides and tourists who meet demons, butchers, and murderers, they will kill them if they can, and "persuade" them to give up killing if they can, which is considered an extremely upright brigade.
Mao Xiaole had been "persuaded" many times, and he felt annoyed when he heard about White Church. However, this extreme righteousness was supported by some travelers. White Church had a lot of power in the West District, and each of them was a fanatic who could sacrifice everything for their faith. An Xuefeng had dealt with White Church and described them as a more paranoid and crazy hope brigade.
Knowing that they would almost certainly die in the battlefield for ten years, White Church chose to devote themselves to their faith. The stronger the faith, the stronger the title. Only when they were so extreme that they were even paranoid, they could have a chance of survival. This was why they had not opened up the journey to the 30th parallel north, but they could become the largest brigade in the West District.
They were like a group of lunatics, but who wouldn't be a lunatic if they stayed in the hostel for a long time? The top travelers watched the gentle and kind nun Maria who lost her memory in the live broadcast, and then thought of her cold and ruthless crazy to the teammates who were stained with darkness and could kill them, and they all sighed in their hearts. In contrast, there is no such paranoid organization in the East District. The former Shepherds' Union was just a hypocritical shell. The only person who was almost pious and stubborn, Yun Tianhe, also actively joined the Mutual Aid Alliance.
Mao Xiaole's words made sense. The White Church only did what they thought was "right", and the head of the butcher tour guide, the Hipster with blood on his hands and the demonic alienation, was definitely the worst of the evils in their eyes. If they thought that there would be a second bloodthirsty "Hipster" when Bingyi returned to zero, then even if it violated the hotel, they might interfere.
"It would be best if he quickly reunited with Teacher Wei."
"That's right, it's better not to return to zero. Hey, Director Cui, please reunite with Wei Xun."
Even Lu Shucheng, who was supporting the Leopard CP, couldn't help but nag. Even if the explorer didn't return to zero, the san value was definitely at the lowest point. Naturally, there are very few ways to return to san. Now Bingyi didn't remember all the titles, and I'm afraid Tong Hege couldn't even give him the purified magic honey to drink.
If he doesn't return to san quickly, it will be too dangerous! If only Wei Xun could reunite with him as soon as possible, with the connecting tourists around, the guide would always start to return to san!
* *
Although An Xuefeng wanted to return to Wei Xun now, he was powerless. The group of crazy salmon were still blocking the crack, and they couldn't go anywhere. After the memory returned, An Xuefeng quickly sorted out his memory and sorted out the current situation in combination with what he saw in the live broadcast room.
Since he found that he would not be corroded by the silver substance, and the silver substance ball in his hand could swallow other silver substances to become larger, An Xuefeng continued to dive while collecting silver substances along the way. Since he wrapped the silver substance into his own soil by swallowing minerals, only a little bit was exposed again, and the same trick was used to attract more creatures infected by the silver substance to actively "lure" him.
An Xuefeng took the bait again and again, and the silver substance in his body became more and more. When the silver substance accumulated in his body reached a certain amount, An Xuefeng found that his body began to change! This change was not clear to others under the dry diving suit, but An Xuefeng could feel it.
He can make the volcanic rocks he touches grow eyes, and the chocolate-colored balls in the eyes are actually salmon eggs. The salmon hatched by the salmon eggs he catalyzed will obey his command.
He can sense the existence of silver substances, and the resistance he encounters when absorbing them is getting smaller and smaller. And he can vaguely feel that there is something in the deep of the big crack that attracts him to keep going down.
And after continuously fusing the silver substances, An Xuefeng found that the silver substances he swallowed next were not only less active than the initial ones, but even the consciousness fed back was completely different from the initial one! The initial silver substance ball called itself the All-wise Man, while the obsession of the next silver substance swallowed was to find the All-wise Man.
Why is there such a gap? Who does the silver substance belong to? An Xuefeng suspected that there was a deeper secret hidden in it. When he dived deep into the D-shaped cave, resisted the pollution of the piled-up silver substances, turned into a ferret and held his breath to drill into the depths of the crack, gritted his teeth and forced through countless illusions and whispers to dig out a small piece of minced meat-like items in the depths of the piled-up silver substances, he was half a head shorter in an instant, and completely possessed the extraordinary power of the dark elf!
His hearing became more and more acute. He could hear the slightest sounds in the glacier water, and even the sounds of algae spores swimming and colliding in the glacier water. He became more and more afraid of light, and even felt repulsive and wanted to avoid the gentle silver light emitted by too much silver matter gathered together.
The darkening of his skin was discovered when he took off his gloves to fuse the silver substance, and the pointed ears were discovered after he was attacked by a swarm of crazy salmon and had his diving mask ripped off before hiding in a crevice. As his understanding of the madman's murderous knife became deeper and deeper, inspirations to modify and enhance it came to mind, but An Xuefeng was convinced.
He possesses supernatural power similar to that of a dark elf.
But what followed was a crazy riot and attack by countless salmon. They devoured the silver substance that was still exposed at all costs. The source of the salmon tide that Bingyi and B1 encountered was on An Xuefeng's side, and he also encountered a powerful Terrifying salmon attack over two meters long! Everything in the collision direction of this huge salmon was turned into nothingness. If An Xuefeng hadn't transformed into a large killer whale in time, he would have been destroyed by the collision of this salmon.
And he also met Miranda and others in the D-shaped cave, and quickly reached a cooperation agreement in the danger. The group of people fought and retreated. At the most critical moment, Big George in a diving suit suddenly appeared and led them to hide in the D-shaped cave. In a crack deeper in the cave - thanks to the fact that the salmon were somehow thinned out, they had a chance to breathe.
Then, when An Xuefeng and Miranda were discussing the next matter, he went crazy and regained his memory. After watching Bingyi's live broadcast, he was like a plug-in, and he instantly understood why he got that silver ball in the first place. Material obsession is different from the later acquired silver material obsession.
It's Odin causing trouble!
The first silver substances were brought by Yu Xiangyang, and they were gathered in Old Mark's infirmary, right next to him! Of course Odin's strength can interfere with Slud's divine power. It claims to be the All-Wise One and misleads travelers. When talking about the silver lady, it uses words such as "crazy and out of control" to make passengers wary. Therefore, even if they hear different feedback when collecting silver substances, they will be suspicious, and it chooses those that are free from contamination by silver substances to the greatest extent. affected travelers.
It's like blocking the traveler's ears and eyes, so that he can only follow the route it gives. And its ultimate purpose is to allow travelers to find and bring back the so-called source of chaos-the piece of Ymir's minced meat.
To be honest, this can be regarded as a main quest path. If An Xuefeng agrees to become its warrior, he will essentially become Odin's warrior. If he does a good job and is appreciated by Odin, he may truly become a warrior recognized by Odin in the next journey, and thus embark on a path that closely revolves around the core of the journey, 'helping Odin collect the minced meat of Ymir' road.
But even without recovering his memory, An Xuefeng took another path. This was already doomed when he ate the salmon flowers Wei Xun gave him.
"You saved me and I will repay you."
After confirming that Miranda was gone, An Xuefeng walked deeper into the crack without hesitation. Although it was underwater, there was air. There was a man lying in the deepest corner of the crack. His dry suit had been torn to pieces, and blood was pouring out of his arms and legs. He was leaning on the rock wall without any strength, breathing hard. At the critical moment, Big George jumped out of the rock crack and pulled them into this safe spot.
After hearing his voice, Big George raised his head with a smile and waved his hand with difficulty: "Look what you said... aren't we friends? Friends should help each other."
"If you say that, I'll really believe it."
However, An Xuefeng did not practice Tai Chi with him and said directly: "Then let's cancel our relationship——"
"But, don't cough, cough, cough, but you can't write it off!"
His words shocked Big George and he suddenly tried to sit up but coughed repeatedly. He shook his head while coughing. The wounds on his body were bleeding and he looked miserable. But An Xuefeng just watched and didn't say a word even though Big George coughed heartbreakingly. After realizing that being miserable didn't work for him, Big George took a few deep breaths, finally managed to catch his breath, and said in a hoarse voice:
"You are my friend. Friends always help each other... Ahem, Bingyi and I are also very good friends. Of course, you have a better relationship."
He said to himself, using the corner of his eye to figure out the expression of the short man in front of him: "He gave you the three-pointed fish flower I gave him to eat. That salmon flower is very precious."
Thinking of this big George, his heart twitched painfully, but what could he do. Although things did not develop as smoothly as he imagined, it was not hopeless after all. His vague and appreciative eyes swept over Wei Xun. He had the skin color, pointed ears and talents of a dark elf, but he did not become ugly and rickety. But still beautiful. A head of pure white soft hair paired with dark skin shows a unique and exotic charm, and the white eyelashes are like a cluster of new snow.
And his shorter height is a plus in Big George's eyes - although it is not too tall to begin with, it would be more appropriate for the Icelandic horse to be shorter. As he watched, he became more and more satisfied with Wei Xun, especially when Wei Xun looked at him carefully, and then suddenly smiled and spoke proactively:
"I know what you want."
"You want the best horse in the world, right?"
Seeing Big George's eyes light up, An Xuefeng smiled in his heart. It’s not hard to guess what Big George is thinking. He and Little George are indeed brothers. As a whaler, Little George’s lifelong pursuit is to be the best killer whale. Big George’s ultimate goal is to be the best killer whale in the world. What a good horse, the eight-legged horse that is the mount of God King Odin!
And they are extremely persistent people who do not hesitate to overcome all difficulties for their pursuit. If used properly, it will be a good boost, just like when Lovelin's baby killer whale pretended to be dead when they went to sea yesterday, and directly fought with the Protector to protect the baby killer whale, Little George.
Odin did not want Loki's son to be born, and he was hostile to Big George at the root. Moreover, Odin, the god of thunder, could not come as a god, and Big George also had a hidden hand - the salmon flower full of divine power might come from a two-meter-long salmon with divine power.
Now the crazy salmon controlled by Odin was still blocking outside the cave, and it was basically impossible for An Xuefeng to meet Wei Xun. But Big George would do everything he could to facilitate his meeting with Wei Xun. If he was used well, he would be very useful. Moreover, An Xuefeng was almost certain that Big and Small George might be related to the secret chess of Black Widow. If he could take the opportunity to draw out the secret hand set by her and the Duke of Lizard...
"Haha, I knew you had already set your eyes on my cute pony!"
An Xuefeng was planning something serious, but his thoughts were interrupted by Big George's sudden laughter. Hearing him say so proactively, Big George was simply delighted. Wei Xun's hint automatically turned into a declaration of having a child in his mind. He didn't expect Wei Xun to be so wild and straightforward. He was indeed a good stallion! And Baby really only looks at him differently, the probability of success is really not low.
He can give everything for the eight-legged divine horse! It seemed that a force suddenly surged out of his body, and Big George could stand up again. He was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth and said firmly: "Don't worry, since you are willing, I will definitely find a way to send you to Baby's side so that you can match it today-woo woo woo!"
An Xuefeng covered Big George's mouth without waiting for him to finish. What are you talking about! He is still holding Wei Xun's face!
"Director Bing and I are not in that kind of relationship."
An Xuefeng said righteously.
Big George's thinking is really problematic. Is he going to disrupt their husband-husband relationship? Black Widow is really insidious. She just can't stand seeing other couples doing well.
An Xuefeng thought unhappily, and made a note of Black Widow in his heart.
