Chapter 40 Orphanage with High Deformation Risk·40
The loss of his life limit triggered An Yu's extreme fear.
If only he can enter the broken lens, it means that his upper limit of life will continue to decrease, and perhaps only 70% will be left by the fourth level.
An Yu looked at the two healing teammates from behind - Jiang Xiao was a nanny who went insane at any time, and it was unknown what his abilities were. Kazama's treatment speed seems to be very slow, and it is difficult to deal with the instant heavy damage of the broken lens.
The injury on the back of the hand had completely disappeared at this moment, and the skin was as smooth as if it had never been cut.
Perhaps self-time acceleration can make up for Kazama's shortcomings.
Qin Zhilu suddenly reminded: "Time acceleration must be used with caution."
An Yu raised his eyes, "Why?"
Qin Zhilu glanced at him with an insight into everything, "It can speed up when you are being healed, and it can also speed up when you are hurt. Be careful, don't kill yourself."
An Yu suddenly froze.
"Remember, the key to any ability is control. You must learn to make it work for you." Qin Zhilu rubbed the candle left by Chen Nian through his gloves, and said slowly and comfortingly: "Take you out. This mission will definitely bring you back well, the wet nurse is enough."
Perhaps because of the early morning, the roads here were even emptier, and the group walked for a long time without encountering anyone.
Jiang Xiao asked: "Is that noisy sound still bothering you?"
"Yeah." An Yu lightly touched the back of his ear.
In fact, the sound did not come from the ears, but was planted deep in the consciousness. However, the noise caused a strange feeling behind the ears. When he touched it with his fingers, he suddenly realized that the strange feeling came from the scar that had been there since childhood.
Qin Zhilu glanced behind his ear and said, "Try to ignore the noise with your mind."
"No need, sir." An Yu whispered, "If it can stimulate new abilities, it doesn't matter if you tolerate it for a while."
Chen Nian said that the further back he goes, the more dangerous it becomes, and he wants to develop his abilities as soon as possible.
Qin Zhilu asked: "Does the sound of the mirror cracking when a person dies is louder?"
An Yu thought for a while, "Yes, but the triggering of abilities seems to have nothing to do with the loudness of the sound, but more depends on the threat to life. The sound of cracking when a person dies is loud, but the health value is not reduced much, and the ability awakening is also very slight. .Although the noise in the mirror is small, it triggers abilities very strongly."
Qin Zhilu said softly: "The price is an instant violent injury."
An Yu nodded, "So to be safe, let's find a way to kill a few more aberrants."
"Are you sure? You look particularly miserable when the sound is loud."
"I'm not afraid of pain." An Yu said softly, "Don't you know that?"
The surrounding teammates exchanged glances subtly.
Qin Zhilu said "Yeah", "But it seems that it's useless for us to kill people. We have to find a way to induce the freaks in the orphanage to kill each other."
An Yu immediately added: "It's best to divide into several groups and fight. We will die together and no one will survive."
Qin Zhilu thought deeply: "I don't know if there are enough aberrants on this level."
Teammates: "..."
In fact, An Yu still had another confusion.
His trait of attracting freaks seems to have failed in the orphanage. No freaks paid any attention to him after wandering on the first floor for so long. Only Chen Nian mentioned that he had a chilling presence.
But Chen Nian's feelings also come and go. They are there outside the cafeteria and sleeping nest building, not outside the reading room, and initially there underground, but disappear again when Qin Zhilu is about to kill Chen Nian.
An Yu fell into deep thought, wondering for the umpteenth time what he was.
Qin Zhilu suddenly came closer and whispered in his ear: "Let me go in later."
"Uh-huh?"
An Yu looked at the officer in confusion, "Where to go in?"
"In the folds of the bandage, your wrist or your throat will do."
An Yu wondered: "Why did you suddenly..."
"No reason." Qin Zhilu looked indifferent, "I'm used to it. Sitting inside is much more comfortable than walking against the heavy snow."
A trace of confusion appeared in An Yu's eyes.
Why do I feel like I'm being used as a means of transportation?
Qin Zhilu said again: "No need for now, I will tell you when I want to go in."
"……"really.
An Yu wanted to protest, but saw the look on his officer's face and swallowed his words.
Qin Zhilu's tone was normal, but his expression was solemn, as if he was thinking about something.
Slade suddenly slowed down and fell to the rear left side of the team, and whispered: "I seem to smell something not very pleasant."
Pat said "Hmm". The antelope deformity made his eyes almost full of black eyes, and those dark eyes were patrolling along the road, "The little cuties here don't seem to be as innocent as the outer circle."
Jiang Xiao and Feng Jian, who were originally walking side by side in front of An Yu, moved away from each other and tacitly switched to a more adaptable position.
An Yu couldn't understand what they were talking about at all. He only knew that he had somehow stood in the center of the small team, a weak human being surrounded by a group of powerful aberrations.
Although he didn't have much combat experience, the strange fluctuations floating in the air were also bothering him.
They turned a corner, and a warehouse-like building burst into view.
——The physical examination room in the orphanage is no different from the memory. Because there are so many children, the weekly examination rule means that the physical examination warehouse has almost no free time. No matter when you pass by, there is a long queue at the door.
The children lined up in a line, holding checklists in their hands, swaying slightly sickly, and slowly squirming forward with the line.
There was no sound in the long queue.
At the other end of the medical examination room, people came out one after another. Their wrists were covered with bleeding bandages, and their faces were filled with exaggerated smiles.
"It's so weird." Kazama looked at the long queue warily, "It's like a horror movie."
An Yu had never seen a horror movie. He said softly, "The physical examination here has always been like this."
In his memory, physical examinations would require you to take off your clothes and pass through one inspection after another naked. Although he himself had no shame, others seemed uncomfortable. He once heard someone say that the physical examination was like a repeated reminder that he was a monster that humans were wary of.
The children in the orphanage live more freely than many people outside, but they cannot escape the weekly physical examination. Over time, whenever they stood in front of the medical examination room, they seemed to lose the desire to talk, and they would only return to normal when they left. Every time they stepped out of that door, they would deliberately make noises and laugh, pretending that nothing had happened.
From the end of the team to the front, the genetic entropy on the terminal always stays in the safe zone.
The distortion rate of the second layer is much lower than that of the previous layer, which is very contradictory to the strong sense of weirdness.
The cold wind suddenly carried a hint of familiar sourness, and An Yu suddenly raised his eyes to look at the door of the warehouse.
A "staff member" came out.
The thing was hunched over, its legs were bent exaggeratedly from the knees, and its head was pressed against the door frame. If it really stood upright, it would be at least three meters tall.
The skin all over its body was oozing with bright green mucus, and bright blue patterns spread on its arms and inner thighs, like poisonous lizards hiding in the leaves in the rainforest. Although it still retains human characteristics from the neck up, the two eye bags are already as big as fists, hanging on both sides of the cheeks, and the eyes are like buckets of inferior red paint.
It struggled to pronounce words, with a strange buzzing sound, "Over there, are you new? Who cares?"
Qin Zhilu said as if he was talking to himself: "The physical signs of mature distortion can no longer be hidden, and the human language system is about to deteriorate. If time in the orphanage had not stopped suddenly, it might have turned into..."
"Like the giant mantis on the shuttle bus." An Yu stared at the thing and softly continued: "It no longer has any human characteristics and thoughts."
"Um."
According to Bai Jing's memory, not long after the chaos occurred, time in the orphanage came to a standstill. Time stops not for everything, but only for the growth and distortion of children. Here, food will still rot after being left for a long time, but the progress of distortion is permanently stopped at the moment the mirror falls - those who are not infected will never be infected. The deformation is slow, the process is forcibly interrupted, and the behavior is still like a human child. And the ones that become deformed quickly become things like this.
The weirdness of the first level is that humans take care of a group of deformed children, and this level is even more outrageous——
Jiang Xiao's shoulders were tense and his tone was cold, "This is the most ridiculous picture I have ever seen."
Abnormalities police humans.
Human beings have sacrificed equality and freedom and will never surrender to abnormalities.
In this orphanage, the sacrifice of dignity has been happening quietly for ten years.
The lizard freak said in a sly voice: "Don't you understand?"
No one said a word.
A gust of wind blew past, and An Yu asked amidst the misty wind, "Are you talking?"
As soon as the words fell, Pat and Slade immediately took two steps forward, blocking the two healers and protecting him more firmly at the rear.
In the silent confrontation, Slade's upper arm muscles became congested again, Pat's leg bones slowly lengthened, and red reflective snake scales began to appear on Jiang Xiao's wrists exposed under his sleeves. Fengjian showed no physical changes, but the body around him A faint plant scent is quietly filling the air.
"So you are all." The monitor lizard was a little surprised, "I haven't seen it before. Are you from other districts?"
It said, looking through them to Qin Zhilu and An Yu.
Qin Zhilu raised his hand in cooperation and pulled the blood-stained white gloves expressionlessly. A dozen black octopus legs slipped out from the hem of the windbreaker and bounced in the air, like an elegantly opened umbrella. Surround the body.
The freak seemed to feel some kind of intimidation, nodded, and looked at An Yu again.
An Yu looked back innocently.
He also wanted to show off and try his best to appear gregarious, but this was really difficult for him.
"A lowly human being who has mixed up with advanced beings." The lizard freak sneered: "It seems that the stupid guys didn't realize that you are human."
Pat asked emotionlessly, "Who's the stupid guy?"
The lizard freak ignored his question, pointed at An Yu, and pointed toward the end of the line, "You, get in line."
The dazzlingly bright claws reached into the cardboard box at the door, grabbed out a form, balled it up and threw it towards An Yu, "Physical examination."
The paper ball was blown by the wind and smashed towards An Yu. Before he could get close to his eyes, he was caught by Jiang Xiao.
Scarlet snake scales have covered the wrist, but the hand is still distinct, and when it is clenched, the protruding joints are beautiful.
Precisely controlling the expression of aberration signs is a compulsory course for every lawful person on the ladder. Although Jiang Xiao became a lawful person not long ago, he has always been a leader.
And controlling the intention to kill is also a compulsory course.
He stared at the monitor lizard and said softly: "No need to check. I am his physical training teacher."
"..."
An Yu subconsciously glanced to his side.
The commander seemed to frown.
