【Chapter 392】The root cause, probably
Different from the spiritual world related to blood seals that Du Jin had encountered before, including the space where the blood moon existed, he intuitively felt that it had a morbid vitality, as if it was constantly expanding and beginning to erode the boundaries between the real world and illusion. Du Jin couldn't help but have the idea of suppressing and destroying it, but the space he was in at this time, although the color and atmosphere were still disgusting and frightening, after all, no matter how hard he stretched his hips, it was still the physical body of the blood mark.
"Here... it seems to be undergoing some kind of contraction. Maybe it is preparing to swallow as much flesh and blood as possible, including the remaining spiritual power of the spiritual body, and then start some kind of evolution?"
Looking at the humanoid creatures crawling towards the center of the space, they did not react at all to their appearance, as if they did not exist. This made Du Jin feel at ease for a moment. After all, he had to fight with the blood seal every time. He was too tired. After observing for a while and finding no clues, Du Jin followed the direction of these humanoid creatures and slowly walked towards the center of the space, where a sphere emitted a strange light.
The road that seemed to be out of reach for humanoid creatures was not that far for Du Jin. After all, he did not have to worry about terrain and speed restrictions. Soon, the sphere with a fleshy membrane attached to its surface appeared in front of Du Jin. As long as the humanoid creature next to you comes within three meters of the meat ball, a suction cup-like object will appear in the ground to absorb the humanoid creature's body. Then, in just ten seconds, the originally shriveled and thin creature will Turned into a broken skeleton.
Although Du Jin didn't know how these humanoid creatures were produced, he shuddered when he thought that the flesh and blood tissues gathered in the underground facilities were the transformation of the personnel in the headquarters building and even some of the people who were lured here. So Du Jin walked up to a humanoid creature that looked thinner. The reason he chose it was very simple. It was the old-fashioned but practical theory of "picking the softest persimmons". Even if something unexpected happened, Du Jin would It's easy to fight or turn around and run away. After all, a good man doesn't suffer the immediate consequences. Only by leaving the green mountains behind can he avoid shooting and burning firewood, right?
This thin humanoid creature felt that there was an obstacle in front of him, so he did not go around it, but still maintained a straight posture. Du Jin squatted down and gently pressed the opponent's crawling hand with one hand. The very soft force could be said to be There was no pressure, even for Du Jin before genetic enhancement. With his other hand, he grabbed the chin of the humanoid creature and slowly lifted it up. Then what appeared in front of Du Jin was a female face. , although her nose and the sides of her face were bloody due to crawling, and even the white facial bones were exposed, this was not the face of a humanoid creature, Du Jin could tell this from her eyes.
What is this new and crucial principle about the attachment of spirits in human eyes? It is extremely rare for one word to cause so much trouble - only a few people think of something when talking about this word. Something certain. Let us put a special knowledge function at the top of the concept of spirit. This is a type of knowledge that only spirit can give; therefore, the basic stipulation of the essence of "spirit" is the unlimited freedom of its existence. In other words In other words, even if Du Jin does not have the ability to capture emotions and spirits given by "Tonghe", he can still see the good and the good in people's eyes. At least he can see that there are personal thoughts in them, and he is not a soulless person. empty things.
As for animals, no matter whether their organizations are high-level or low-every action and reaction, including "rational" reactions, are emanating from the physiological conditions of the animal's nervous system; in terms of psychology, impulse stimulation and sensory perception are also belongs to this situation. Those things that are not interested in impulse do not exist; and the things that exist only exist as centers of resistance to the requirements and disgust of animals. This is why even people who have not received corresponding training and identification training have a high probability of We don’t regard animal eyes as human eyes. This may be because of the tacit understanding between the same race, but it is more because the eyes of animals can only see the joy of life, but cannot see thoughts and consciousness... ...
When Du Jin looked into this numb and lifeless eyes, he immediately realized that the other person's spirit and consciousness seemed to be self-enclosed. He could only feel an endless emptiness and indifference, and could only see instinct and some kind of forced implantation. Deep consciousness controlled the movement of his body. Deep in the woman's soul, Du Jin could still feel her fear, uneasiness and helplessness. Du Jin let go of his hand and immediately went to the few people who were still crawling next to him, using the same force. After observing their eyes and consciousness, we came to the same conclusion. These so-called "humanoid creatures" are all living people, but they are controlled by the blood seal in some way, and they continuously supply energy to the blood seal. The price is their death.
Du Jin had some doubts before that the blood seal had transformed the people in the command building into flesh and blood, but where did their consciousness and spiritual bodies go? Now he has seen the answer, and the flesh and blood suckers all around those flesh balls are what turned them into flesh and blood. A "meat grinder" that crushes innocent people and squeezes out the last bit of their value. Du Jin quickly went to a person who had been absorbed by a suction cup, pulled up the flesh and blood suction cup and pulled hard, and the suction cup-like creature was Then it turned into blood in Du Jin's hands, but more similar creatures surged out around the rescued person, adsorbing them all over his body. Before Du Jin could pull them off the person in front of him again, those creatures The celebrities have been completely absorbed, leaving only the bones.
As if under the influence of Du Jin, the spread range of these sucker creatures began to expand little by little, and some even emerged from the ground and began to extend to absorb people who were not close to them in the distance. This made Du Jin realize that he It is absolutely too late to remove these blood-stamped creations in time, but he wants to start from the root cause, that is, the flesh ball behind him as the main body starts to end it all, but in order to prevent himself from dealing with it, the creatures created by the blood-seals will be destroyed on the ground. The person who controlled the crawling could absorb all of them. Even if he solved the blood mark body, he would only get the miserable scene of bones all over the ground. He first used his own ability to complete the concrete image with his mental power, and formed a circle around the meat ball. The light blue barrier prevents those people from entering the attack range of the blood-stamped creatures.
After those sucker-like creatures noticed that there was a barrier in front of them, they began to carry out collision-style attacks. One or two of them were nothing, but they couldn't bear the huge number of blood-marked creatures and attacked together. A feeling of exhaustion soon appeared. Du Jin's mind flashed, and after realizing that he couldn't hold on for too long, Du Jin immediately came to the meat ball, and then discovered that the surface of the meat ball was just a layer of flesh membrane covered with blood vessels, through which he could vaguely see what was inside. A humanoid creature is quietly drawing power from living people.
Du Jin used a little mental strength to attach a layer of protection to his hand, and then used all his strength to punch directly through the flesh membrane. A large amount of red mist and bright red liquid gushes out from the damaged area. , Du Jin's ears also heard an increasingly intense wailing sound, but he did not hesitate or stop, but continued to reach forward to grab the humanoid creature, then firmly fixed his feet on the ground, and used both hands to force it After being forcefully pulled out, the fleshy ball with a huge gaping hole could no longer maintain its original shape and began to collapse inwards.
And Du Jin also saw the appearance of the humanoid creature that he dragged out of the ground. It was somewhat similar to the necromorph he had seen before. In addition to the outline of the body that was somewhat similar to that of humans, the limbs, skin and face had obvious changes. It started to transform like an arthropod like an insect, and its chest was directly exposed, revealing a dark yellow heart that almost occupied the entire chest. It was beating continuously at this time, as if it had been greatly stimulated. Same.
Du Jin originally wanted to crush this source of trouble with one foot, but when his foot just reached its head, Du Jin hesitated. It was not that Du Jin felt any pity for this monster, even if it had been Being forced by the blood seal or the divine seal, but the heinous crimes committed with the blood seal, killing 10,000 times is a lighter weight. Judging from the tens of millions of innocent people in the Interstellar Federation who were directly and indirectly killed by the blood seal, It seems particularly unfair to let him die peacefully and happily. What really worries Du Jin is that based on his experience, if he destroys the creature under his feet that is the subject of the spiritual space, then this space will soon collapse and disappear. He himself can leave safely, but what about these people who are still under control?
The flesh and blood gathered in the underground facilities are certainly disgusting, but if the blood seal can be used to perform some reverse methods, some people may be able to recover. Even if they cannot be restored to the same state before being infected and transformed by the blood seal, at least they can continue Surviving as a human being may have nothing to do with Du Jin's interests. After all, as long as he destroys the blood seal and lets Feng Jitong see it, his mission will be completed, but Du Jin can't helplessly watch so many people die. , losing his life in front of his own eyes.
This may seem a bit holy to some people, but for Du Jin, this is the most basic responsibility and responsibility for himself. Even if he has to pay a certain price, he is willing and feels that it is worth it. Perhaps, this is Si Qing One of the fundamental reasons why I really fell in love with Du Jin, a "poor boy" with a huge difference in status.
