There are many doubtful points and many things to investigate. But this is clearly not a good time to investigate.
The time has pointed to 12 p.m. it's certainly not a good idea to run into such a strange town late at night, and the system also sends a prompt that if they don't sleep again, they will be in a trance the next day, and their maximum physical strength will decrease.
However, although there were still many things they cared about, the three had to give up their intention to discuss again and prepare for a rest.
As for how to sleep, Qingfeng bazuka didn't go to the guest room alone, but held a quilt and a pillow. The three were going to spend the night in one room for the sake of safety, so as not to trigger a wave of plot killing when he was alone. Such a bad system can definitely do it.
Qingfeng bazuka threw the quilt down on the ground to make a floor shop. An Yizhi and Tu Hongyu were also embarrassed to occupy the bed and took down the quilt to make a floor shop together. Anyway, for players, the sleep system is just to close their eyes and click to sleep. It doesn't matter who is in bed or on the floor, as long as it's safe nearby.
An Yizhi stood in front of the window, hid almost all his body in the shadow, and carefully observed the outside through the window. All kinds of strange situations in the script made him a little uneasy. He always felt that something would happen right away.
But it was almost 12 o'clock, and the street outside the window was still quiet.
Am I nervous?
It's no wonder that the incredible phenomenon of suicide on this island is really hard to forget. Thanks to the game, he can't sleep in reality.
But just when he thought he was thinking too much, he saw a man in the street outside the window.
It was a man who appeared out of thin air. His body was as empty as a virtual shadow, like a mirage, and a bit like a ghost. However, every step he took would leave clear footprints on the Loess street.
Ann felt his hair stand up all at once. His scalp was numb and he whispered to his two companions.
"Something's going on outside"
They were stunned, put down the quilt in their hands, and pasted it to the window to watch it with the same care. In such a little time as an Yi pointed back to call people, and then turned back, there were more and more people outside, or things like people, and soon filled the whole empty street.
Looking at such a scene like a mob of demons, the three felt cold all the way from the back of the head to the tailbone, as if they had been doused with a bucket of cold water.
What's more terrible is that an Yizhi finds that he has lost control of his body and can't even control one eyelid.
People on the street seem to have no self-consciousness. They just wander aimlessly, like empty shells without wisdom. Among these people, an Yizhi saw two familiar guys.
One was the skinny drug addict. His eyes were dull and his hands seemed to hold a syringe, as if ready to take drugs, while the other was father Locke. He sat in the street out of thin air and moved his hands. Ann pointed out that his action was very similar to looking at his pocket watch anxiously before.
What does that mean? The dead will come out for a meeting at night?
I don't know how long I watched it. After losing control of my body, an Yizhi felt a little vague about time. At this time, he heard a strange beep, which felt like the thin and sharp stone noise of the wind, and the next moment he regained control of his body.
The three gasped like fish just fished out of the water.
"What happened?"
Tu Hongyu was still in shock. This experience was much more exciting than the last deep mountain hall.
An Yizheng wanted to say how Lao Tze knew. The three heard the sound of the door lock opening outside at the same time. They looked at him again.
This time, in addition to those who were almost the same as ghosts in the past, many living townspeople were also in the street. It just felt that they were more like sleepwalking, one by one with their eyes closed and their mouths talking.
Due to the barrier and distance of the window, the three couldn't hear what they said.
As time went on, they saw more and more townspeople join in, and even saw father Locke's daughter who they met earlier.
"Go and see how mcflynn is."
If the townspeople fall into such a state, mcflynn may run out, too.
But when they opened the door, they found that mcflynn was still asleep. He was so heavy that he couldn't even wake him up with the squeak of the old doorshaft when they opened the door.
Can only those who live here fall into that strange state?
Thinking of this, the three found that the townspeople and ghosts began to move orderly through the window, and seemed to be moving in the same direction. And among the people passing by the window, they saw their mission goal, the young man named Mallory!
He seems to be in a sleepwalking state like the townspeople. It seems that there is nothing unusual. He is not a "ghost" but a living person, but his speed is not slow. He passed through the window.
Ann clenched her teeth and said:
"Take your weapons and let's follow."
"Is it dangerous?"
"Of course, but I have to go with you. Open the taskbar and have a look."
On the three people's taskbar, the branch task says: find Mallory (complete), and update a new task to take Mallory away from chisa island.
The main task was to "spend the night on the island.".
There is a branch mission activated. The three people know that they may encounter danger, so they have to go and have a look. After all, no one can't live with the extra reward.
Bring weapons, mainly Qingfeng bazuka's rifle. The full power bullet is much stronger than the. 38 small revolver in their hands. The three quietly open the door to keep up with the sleepwalking villagers.
They don't seem to find that there are three more sober guys in their team, and they are mainly mixed with the townspeople, trying to stay away from those "ghosts".
After walking with them for about a few hundred meters or more, an Yizhi found that there seemed to be fog around, but it didn't feel like fog. At least it didn't have any effect on their sight. As long as they looked back, they could see the port with lights in the distance and mcflynn's house.
This makes the three feel at ease. If there is any danger, at least running is not a problem.
Follow the townspeople, they have lost Mallory's shadow, and they dare not follow too closely, so they can't look for it carefully.
Finally, they came to a place that seemed to be the town square, where there was a sculpture, where a large number of townspeople and things like ghosts gathered there.
An Yizhi hid behind a large wooden barrel and carefully poked out his head. He saw a crystal like object floating above the sculpture.
It is about three meters long and two meters wide. Its shape is very irregular. It emits a faint white glow, just like the blinking stars in the night sky.
The townspeople were chanting words, and their voices were getting louder and louder. This time they heard some of them clearly.
'q'yth-az'
At that moment, they saw that the light on the crystal was getting brighter and brighter, and the balderdash of the villagers was getting bigger and bigger. It was by no means any known language. It sounded very old and obscure. An Yizhi tried to read it in a low voice, but she found that she couldn't even make that sound.
This is definitely not a language invented by human beings! Because human vocal cords can't make such a sound at all!
With the increase of light, an Yizhi, who looked directly at the crystal, saw some illusion.
He became a scholar buried in the files, a prehistoric wizard waving a butcher's knife on the basalt altar, and a king sitting on the throne giving orders.
He seemed to have lived countless times and died countless times. He even felt that he had become a monkey foraging in the jungle.
Shaking his head, he woke up from this illusion. For a moment, it seemed that he had experienced countless years. He remembered that the last image was fixed on an ivory stone slab, engraved with countless terrible and incomprehensible lines and a group of amoeba shaped strange creatures. He had no internal organs, limbs, even mouth and eyes, but a pool of creeping and crawling mucus. How disgusting, how disgusting, how terrible!
With a pitiful little knowledge, Anyi identified it as ubosalas, the old ruler who first came to the earth. At that time, the earth was just a steaming "fireball".
Sure enough, all this is related to the indescribable gods!
An Yizhi knows that he can't watch it anymore. Even if this branch mission is abandoned, he can't watch it anymore!
He tried to get rid of the terrible scene in his mind and turned back to wake up the two men with livid faces.
"Well, what's that?"
Breeze bazuka asked in shock.
"I can't say a word or two. It may be dangerous here. Let's go back first."
"Chisaz, where do I think I've heard the name?"
Tu Hongyu muttered to himself, but he also agreed with an Yizhi that the three should get away from here.
They came out carefully from the wooden barrel where they were hiding. The villagers were dull and faced the crystal. From this point of view, they could not see whether they had opened their eyes, but the three saw a layer of white things like fog rising from the villagers, which was the same as what they just thought was foggy.
Those "ghosts" also rose in a white mist, and became transparent with the naked eye, almost invisible.
Those mists were absorbed by the crystal. At each absorption point, the crystal seemed to grow up. I don't know if it was an illusion.
The ritual of absorbing power?
It looks very similar, but an Yizhi didn't think much. The top priority is to run quickly.
Fortunately, the action of the three people leaving did not attract the attention of anyone or human things, but they all felt a strong sense of sleepiness as the distance gradually widened.
The sleepiness was so strong that they were dizzy. They soon couldn't even walk steadily.
"Come on, don't fall asleep!"
Ann drank it in a low voice and pinched Tu Hongyu who was almost asleep. No matter where this sleepiness comes from, sleeping in the street is almost certain to die.
So they endured sleepiness all the way, reminded each other and walked hard back to mcflynn's house.
Perhaps they reached the limit of control. They just entered the door. They only felt black in front of them and heard a sound of falling to the ground.
All three fell asleep
