"No matter what they want to do, we strive to hold more psychic cores in our hands so that we can cope with any changes without change!"

After determining the target of the operation, Ana Shen cooperated with Bai Ye and raided and dismantled two entertainment facilities.

One is a pirate ship similar to a big pendulum, and the other is a jumping machine.

On the pirate ship, there was a promotional poster for a pirate movie. When Ana Shen and Bai Ye demolished the pirate ship, the pirates in the poster jumped into reality.

It was a monster between illusion and reality, more difficult to deal with than the twelve horses on the carousel, but Ana Shen still found the opportunity to directly pollute the entire pirate ship with black mist and extract the psychic core. come out.

Compared with the simple and rough pirate ship, the jumping machine is much more dangerous.

The main reason is that the electromagnetic gun, which has been invincible before, has run out of bullets.

Facing a jumping machine dozens of meters high, Shen Yan and Bai Ye tried to recreate the direct destruction path, but found that there was no way to start.

You can't just have two people holding two daggers and chop them off bit by bit, right?

Having lost the effective means of attracting monsters, the two of them had to return to the old plan of actively going deep into it and triggering erosion.

[You will watch yourself falling from the sky]

This is the description on the flyer of the accident involving the jumping machine.

At first glance, there seems to be no problem. After all, the jumping machine itself is a sport similar to bungee jumping. However, if you compare this sentence with other projects, you will find that the most critical part of this prophecy is - 'You look at yourself'.

How can you see yourself in a place without mirrors?

“Each prophecy foreshadows a dangerous manifestation of this project.”

Bai Ye analyzed: "The big pendulum will die from head explosion, and weird shadows of people and horses will appear behind the merry-go-round. This jumping machine that sees itself..."

"It can't be an out-of-body experience, right?"

Unexpectedly, Ana Shen did not refute after hearing Bai Ye's words, but nodded solemnly.

Bai Ye frowned: "...soul, does this thing really exist?"

"It depends on how you define it," Ana Shen looked up at the jumping machine tens of meters high and said, "Think about the woman in red we met before, her body has long been turned into her own nutrients by scavengers. We later cleaned her up, but her spiritual energy still exists outside of her body."

"This is in line with our understanding of 'soul' in a broad sense. But she relies on Sun Ye's power to exist."

Bai Ye looked at the huge jumping machine and asked in a deep voice: "Do you think this thing can really separate our 'souls' from our bodies?"

Soul... Even though he had seen the existence of the woman in red with his own eyes, and even though everyone's old scientific common sense was constantly being broken after the crack appeared, Bai Ye still felt the unspeakable absurdity when he said this word.

After hundreds of thousands of years of development, modern scientific and technological civilization will inevitably lead to the mythical path of monsters and ghosts in the end?

"You can never answer this kind of question without trying."

As Ana Shen said that, he handed the short knife back to Bai Ye and walked to the preparation platform of the jumping machine without looking back: "You watch from below, I'll give it a try!"

Bai Ye looked at Ana Shen's back and hesitated to speak.

She knew that in this situation, Ana Shen would be the safest way to go up and test the waters. As an ordinary person, if I try to stand out at this time, I am causing trouble.

"...be careful."

Bai Ye clenched the dagger in his hand, took out the portable psychic detector issued by the Public Security Bureau, pointed it at the jumping machine, and conducted analysis and sampling.

Ana Shen's whole body was wrapped in black mist, and she carefully sat on the safety seat of the jumping machine, and then fastened the seat belt according to the steps.

With the roar of a machine, it slowly lifted into the sky like an elevator.

When it reached the highest point, Ana Shen stretched out his head and looked down. Bai Ye was already only the size of a thumb.

The countdown started to light up above his head——

"5"

"4"

"3"

"2"

Ana Shen's muscles tightened and he was highly concentrated. All his attention was on the jumping machine, and the black mist on his body even began to boil and roll.

"1!"

As the last red light came on, the jumping machine lost all restraints and fell rapidly downwards in a free fall!

Ana Shen only felt a sense of weightlessness, and then she actually floated up.

He lowered his head and saw another 'himself' sitting on the jumping machine falling downwards.

"my body--"

In less than a few breaths and without slowing down at all, the jumping machine experienced a free fall of dozens of meters and hit the ground hard.

"boom--"

There was a burst of dust, followed by thick blood splashing everywhere!

"doctor!!"

When Ana Shen saw Bai Ye throwing down the things in his hands, he screamed and ran towards himself who was falling.

He only felt a throbbing pain in his heart: "My body... was broken like this?"

Ana Shen struggled instinctively. He wanted to go down and see with his own eyes how 'himself' was doing.

However, as he moved, a sore and numb feeling of electric shock suddenly came from his body. Ana Shen turned her head and saw that the black mist wrapped around her body actually separated from her body with her movements.

He had already leaned out half of his body, but the black mist on his upper body remained in place, condensing into the shape of his upper body.

"The clown's power is out of body...that's not right!"

Ana Shen suddenly woke up: "The clown's power has always been in my body. If it wanted to leave the body, it should have been separated when it fell!"

[The merry-go-round, when you look forward like a knight, he is also looking greedily at the back of your head]

"The ghostly figures behind the scenes are just a cover. What really exerts the power of erosion is the painting on the ceiling..."

[Big pendulum, the hammer that crushes tourists’ heads! 】

"It's not the hammer that smashes the tourists' heads, but the invisible hands..."

Ana Shen frowned: "The prophecy seems to predict the accidents that each project will encounter, but the things it mentions are actually all appearances, even misleading..."

"Seeing one's own body falling from a high altitude...seeing one's own body is superficial and misleading...what does it mislead?"

"If my soul has not left the body and what I see now is an illusion, then what would it most want me to do when it presents this illusion to me..."

And all this, seen from Bai Ye's perspective, is indeed another picture——

She saw Ana Shen fasten his seat belt carefully, close his eyes and wait for the jumping machine to take off. However, after waiting for more than ten seconds, there was no movement from the jumping machine.

Just when Bai Ye thought the machine was malfunctioning, she was horrified to see a white shadow standing up from Ana Shen's body.

The white shadow that looked exactly like Ana Shen stood anxiously on his body, even struggling to pull his legs out of his body.
