"Hallucination?" Dean understood a little bit. Everything is fake. "Then what do we do now?"
Dean looked left and right, guarding against another illusion popping up. Although that thing was indeed impossible to hurt him, it was indeed scary. But at this moment, he suddenly found that his brother had a strange expression. He seemed to be trembling, and he did not dare to stare at several people. He just kept looking down at his shoes.
"Hey! Sam! What are you doing?" Dean patted Sam.
Unexpectedly, Sam jumped up as if he had been electrocuted, and kept moving backwards!
"Don't come here! Don't come here!" Sam's expression was extremely frightening. He kept retreating, and even after falling to the ground, he kept retreating. As if to stay far away from them.
"Sam! What's wrong with you?!!!" What Dean cared about most in his life was his younger brother, which even made him seem a bit gay at some point. Many people mistakenly think that they are gay, but in fact this is not the case. Dean just has a stronger sense of responsibility. He has always regarded Sam as his responsibility. It is the most important responsibility given to him by his mother and father. In order to He would not even hesitate to make enemies of the world to protect his younger brother.
Seeing that something was wrong with Sam, Dean's first reaction was to rush over to see what happened to Sam. But as soon as he took a step forward, Kai grabbed him.
"Don't go there, he's hallucinating. Now your image in his eyes is what he fears most." Kai looked at Sam, who was tall and thick. He was half a head taller than Dean and much stronger, but now he looked like A little girl.
Thinking of this, Kai patted Dean on the shoulder with emotion: "Is he really a witcher?"
Dean didn't react at first, but soon understood what Kai meant. As demon hunters, the most they deal with in this life are those scary and weird things. Without a good psychological quality, they can't play at all. Although they can't be afraid of anything in this profession, they will immediately see weird things. Forcibly suppressing his fear, it would be too much to be frightened and collapse like Sam.
Dean was a little embarrassed when he understood. He naturally knew what was wrong with his brother. Sam is very courageous. He is fearless when facing demons, ghosts, vampires and even shape-shifters. He is not afraid of facing an entire vampire family alone.
But there was only one thing that he couldn't deal with.
"He had a psychological trauma when he was a child, so he was afraid of clowns...very scared, the kind that would produce physiological reactions. I once thought about helping him overcome it...but the results were not very good." Dean felt it was funny, but also Said a little embarrassed.
The clown has always been Sam's enemy. I remember one time Dean pretended to be a clown to scare Sam, and also to help him overcome his psychological shadow, but... Anyway, Sam didn't talk to Dean for several weeks, which was very... It was taboo for Dean to talk about what happened that day, and he also made Dean swear that what happened that day would never be leaked.
In the United States, clowns are not a happy and funny image in many cases. Since John Wayne Gacy brutally murdered 33 boys between 1972 and 1978, the clown's image has begun to be distorted, because every time he commits a crime He would always keep his clown appearance, but his daily life would become normal again. He would always dress up as a clown to attend parties, lure the victims away, and then commit crimes. This case is just one of many cases in which clowns, a profession that originally brought joy to people, have gradually become fearful to foreigners.
But generally in daily life, the image of clowns is not too bad. No one is really afraid of clowns in real life, otherwise the circus would no longer be a clown.
It seems that our cute little Sam was indeed greatly stimulated back then.
Just as the two of them were saying these words, Sam encountered a new situation. He suddenly screamed, and one of his wrists was snapped to 90 degrees!
It really startled other people.
According to Kai's guess, the corpse has no ability to harm others. He will only make the target fall into hallucinations, and then let those who fall into hallucinations kill each other. At least the Westing family and Tommy and his son died because of attacking each other.
But now, it clearly exceeded their expectations.
"Sam! Wake up!!!"
Before Dean could rush to protect his brother, Kai used his psychic powers again, awakening Sam.
Following Kai's explosion, Sam immediately woke up in pain and confusion. When he saw Dean already beside him, his first reaction was not to breathe a sigh of relief. Instead, he was shocked. Until Dean Hold him.
"It's okay, Sam, it's me, it's okay, it's okay."
At this time, Dean didn't have the temperament of a grumpy boy at all. Speaking of it, Dean was very much like a western cowboy. He was rough, grumpy, adventurous, loved drinking, and loved women. It's hard to imagine that such a grumpy man would have such a gentle side. .
But it was also a scene like this that made Portman and the others a little uncomfortable.
Portman even secretly said to Kai: "Boss... tell me, are they..."
Seeing Kai looking at him in surprise, Portman suddenly thought... these two people seemed to be his boss's brothers. The boss's attitude towards homosexuality, how should I put it, is very subtle. If it doesn't affect his life, anyone who likes to be gay can be gay, and he doesn't care much. But if a gay wants to invade his life, he will be very disgusted.
Portman always felt that her boss was discriminating against homosexuals, but she never had the courage to report it. Later, when Portman wanted to play gay, he would hide where Kay couldn't see him. Within Kai's field of vision, Portman will automatically switch to heterosexual mode. The two-way plug is easy to use!
In short, Portman knew that if Kai's two brothers were gay and gay, it would be very difficult for the eldest brother to accept.
So shut up immediately and don’t say anything more.
Sam finally calmed down and just covered his hands and stood up with some lingering fear. It can be seen from here that this guy is indeed a tough guy. His hands were broken, but he didn't show any abnormality.
"I..." Sam knew that he had just been embarrassed. He knew that the other party was an illusion, but he was still scared to death.
Kai waved his hand and didn't pay attention to it. Instead, he asked Sam carefully what he saw.
Sam also calmed down at this time and slowly explained the vision he had seen.
"In the beginning, when you turned into... clowns, you really didn't hurt me, you were just there to scare me. But as I became more and more scared, the illusion you turned into began to touch me, and then... "
"What you mean is... but the more people who are dragged into the illusion show fear, the more real the illusion will be, and can even reach the point of interfering with reality?" Kai organized his words a little and speculated on his crime. come out.
Sam nodded because he thought so too. Although he was scared, he never gave up thinking. He also guessed this in his mind. Of course, knowing is one thing, but experiencing it is another. One hundred percent of the people in this world know that horror movies are all fake and filmed, but when watching horror movies, you should be scared, but you will still be scared.
Sam's fear of clowns is really out of control. There is no way, whoever calls him brother and dad think that psychiatrists are a liar and pseudo-science...
Sometimes Sam wants to ask, are the things they do scientific? To actually discriminate against other people’s psychiatrists is really...
In short, Sam's father and brother both dismissed the so-called psychological shadow and insisted that the best way for a man to fight against fear is to face it. So poor little Sam, not only did he not receive formal psychological counseling since he was a child, but he was tortured to death by various 'stimulation therapies' given by his father and brother, who were both straight and in the late stages of cancer. It turned out to be just pure fear. Now it has changed to the point where when I see the clown, my whole body becomes weak, my breathing becomes rapid, and I am completely unable to control my inner fear.
(In fact, Sam has never seen a psychiatrist very often...because psychiatrists in the United States are really expensive! Others charge based on time. Maybe after you have a good chat with the psychiatrist, the bill will be You have once again fallen into a new psychological shadow. And the Wen brothers are notoriously poor)
When the others heard this, they looked at the female corpse with lingering fear.
Who doesn’t have something to be afraid of?
"Then we... By the way, Boss, since you can wake up Sam, can you also wake us up? Then we don't have to be afraid?" Meatball thought, since his boss can wake up people who are trapped in hallucinations Wake them up, so what are they afraid of?
Unexpectedly, Kai shook his head with a wry smile: "It's not that simple. In fact...haven't you discovered that even now, we are still in the illusion!"
No one expected Kai to say such a thing.
"How is it possible..." Not only Dean and the others didn't believe this, but even Meatball and the others didn't believe it.
"Didn't you pay attention?"
"What?"
"It's raining outside!"
The violent storm outside was still raging with no intention of stopping, but everyone still couldn't see anything wrong.
"It's raining outside? What's wrong with the rain?"
Kai shook his head, pointed to the window that Meatball had opened before, and said: "The rain outside looks fine, but have you noticed that it has been raining for half an hour, but the water on the ground has not changed at all. !”
Logically speaking, after such a heavy rain, the water on the ground should have accumulated a long time ago. What's more, the temporary police station is at the foot of the mountain. The rainwater flowing down the mountain should have formed a rapid flow of water, but the ground outside the window There were still just potholes and no water flow formed. Just like when it rained.
Everyone looked around and found that this was indeed the case.
"And this rain came so strangely. I remember it very clearly. There was no rain today, and the moon came out at night. Why did it start raining as soon as we came here? And according to the recording left by Tommy , it also rained on the day they had the accident, but it clearly didn’t rain at all that night!”
In fact, the rain started to fall, and Kai sensed something was wrong. It's just that he didn't pay attention at first. It wasn't until he discovered that the female corpse harmed people through illusions that he began to pay attention to the surrounding environment. Unexpectedly, a loophole was actually discovered.
After all, an illusion is always an illusion, and its source itself is illogical. As long as you look carefully, you can see more flaws. This is why the female corpse wants to use fear to deal with everyone from the beginning. It's very simple. When people are afraid, their thinking will naturally and inevitably go awry.
Take Sam, for example. He's not an outsider, but he didn't suffer miserably when he knew it was an illusion. That’s not to mention other stuff.
But the female corpse never expected that among the group of people it had to deal with, there was actually one person who was not at all afraid of the illusion it created.
It was impossible to say that Kai didn't have any fear. Normal people will be afraid, but it also depends on the situation. Kai's experience is too rich, and he has never seen anything. Just a few ghosts and zombies can scare him?
Besides, although everyone has fear, fear can also be overcome. When Kai was a soldier in his previous life, he was a scout and a top soldier. Mental quality training is the top priority. Later, Kai traveled through time and experienced a lot of horrors between life and death. It was impossible to be frightened by a few gods and ghosts.
"In other words, we were tricked from the beginning?" Portman pointed to himself stupidly, then shook his head, and pointed to the others with some uncertainty: "You...could it be that you are also an illusion? In fact, here Is it just me? Is everything I just experienced a figment of my imagination?"
When the others heard this, they looked at each other, even Dean and Sam looked at each other. It feels... as if it's very possible!
This made the atmosphere at the scene suddenly become very strange. If those things just happened with their companions, everyone would not be too scared. After all, there were people fighting alongside them, so no matter what, they would have some confidence. But if they were performing a one-man show from beginning to end...it would make me shudder to think about it.
"okay!"
When Kai saw this situation, he immediately interrupted their random thoughts. This female corpse was making trouble by relying on the fear of others. If they were given some unnecessary fear at this time, it would very likely be exploited.
So Kai quickly used his mental power to interrupt their random thoughts.
"I can sense your existence with my spiritual power. You are real. It's just that these things we see are fake!"
"Then is there any way to pull us out of the illusion?" Now even the Wen brothers, who had always thought they were well-informed, began to believe in Kai. After all, at the beginning, Kai showed something much more professional than the hunters like them!
"There is a solution that is not a solution..." Kai said with a wry smile.
Although Kai has always been calm now, the situation is actually very serious now. Don't forget, Kai's mental power has always been different from ordinary people. Even he was dragged into the illusion, and he only guessed that he was dragged into the illusion through observation. He didn't feel anything strange before, so you can imagine how powerful this illusion is. Weird.
"any solution?"
…
"Hey... you didn't tell us it would hurt so much!" Dean grabbed his shoulders and kept blowing on his shoulders while complaining in a hoarse voice.
The other people were similar. Everyone seemed to have run a marathon. They were covered in sweat. They either collapsed on the ground, or lay on the ground like dead pigs. All of them collapsed.
This is really not their fault, after all, anyone who is burned by the desert fire has this virtue.
The flames not only burn the body, but also turn the soul into fuel.
That's right, Kai's so-called method is to use the pain that goes straight into the soul to get rid of the illusion. It's just like hitting someone on the head with a stick when you lose your memory. It's all a routine.
"Okay, stop complaining. If you knew the fate of those who were burned by this flame before, you would know how lucky you are."
Kai pressed his temples hard, resisting the sharp pain in his brain that was like an iron rod stirring, and comforted him casually.
The Fire of the Desert is a true manifestation of Godhead and the highest masterpiece of the Egyptian gods. Containing the rules allowed by the universe, it is fierce and domineering. The compatibility between Kai and the Desert Flame is not compatible at all, so most of the time he can only control the Desert Flame in a superficial way. In addition, because his strength has not been restored, he wants to make everyone feel the pain that goes deep into the soul, but he can't really The price Kai paid for hurting them can be imagined.
It feels like Zhang Fei is doing embroidery, it is very, very difficult, and it will bring about a powerful mental backlash.
What's more, if Kai wants to get rid of the illusion, he also has to burn himself. While enduring the pain, he has to control the desert flames delicately. It is definitely a pain that Kai never wants to experience again.
A group of people were tortured for almost half an hour before they could barely communicate as now. And in the next few days, the burnt areas will continue to cause pain. Although that level of pain can be tolerated, it is still uncomfortable.
After another half hour, a group of people finally stood up.
After all, the biggest trouble has not yet been solved.
That female corpse.
"Then what should we do?" Portman looked at the naked female body and couldn't help but shudder.
Just when they came out of the illusion, everything around them returned to its original state. They stood in the brightly lit temporary morgue. Although it was night outside the window, the moonlight was bright, the breeze was blowing, and the time was quiet. There was no violent storm.
The only difference was that there were obvious traces of being burned by flames around the body, and there was a strong smell of gasoline, but the female body was still as smooth as jade, without even a trace of stain, and had not changed at all.
Looking at the female corpse, everyone looked at the steaming slap mark on the shoulder, which was burned by the desert heat.
They really don't want to go through the pain they just had.
They didn't know what life was worse than death before, but they felt that what they had experienced before was definitely worse than life.
"I..." Kai thought for a while, and finally revealed another trump card. "let me try."
After saying that, a golden halo suddenly appeared next to him, and then Kai reached in and pulled out two long swords!
Dean and Sam were stunned when they saw this scene. They had no idea what it was. They ask themselves that they are well-informed.
