"This is not simply a matter of narrow-mindedness or a conflict of interests."

A doctor from the Alien Beast Investigation Bureau who was familiar with Meng Chao and Lu Siya handed them several layer-by-layer scans of the brain.

In the cross-sectional view of the walnut-like brain, in addition to the criss-crossing sulci, there are also several groups of very similar light spots shining.

As the bioelectrical stimulation input to the brain gradually increased, the light spots dancing like butterflies gradually came together and turned into a ferocious pattern similar to a skull.

"This is……"

Meng Chao took a breath of air.

It's not because the active areas of the brains of these patients happen to look like skulls.

Instead, I feel that these patterns seem familiar.

Sure enough, the doctor told them that there were a total of ten layer-by-layer scans of the brain.

The first five pictures are the latest scan results of the out-of-control extraordinary beings who just participated in the melee.

The last five pictures come from the human beings who were bewitched by the demon god "The Eye of the Abyss" in the "Raid on the King's Landing Hotel"; and the gangsters who surrendered and became puppets of monsters in the "Hive City Rebellion".

"Are you saying that Ma Hong and the others were also attacked mentally and completely brainwashed by the monsters?" Meng Chao was shocked.

The demon god "Eye of the Abyss" is one of the most terrifying enemies he has ever encountered.

This super beast, which is like a combination of a giant eyeball and a brain, has terrifying abilities that can infinitely amplify the obsessions in people's hearts and upgrade "obsessions" into "inner demons".

As the saying goes, "To talk about toxicity without talking about dose is to be a hooligan."

On the other hand, as long as the dose is high enough, even normal thoughts may turn into venom that corrodes the soul and drives people crazy.

Many of the views and methods of saving Dragon City have no problems in themselves, and at least have the value of discussion.

But if you are stubborn and dig deeper and deeper into the horns of a bull, you will easily fall into the abyss of error or even evil from a correct and well-intentioned starting point.

This is true whether it is Linchuan or Takano.

They all saw some problems in Dragon City, even structural contradictions.

Unfortunately, he was bewitched by the monster and tried to use wrong and extreme methods to solve these problems.

In the end, he destroyed himself and almost destroyed the entire Dragon City.

Could it be that Ma Hong and others also followed in their footsteps?

However, wasn’t the demon god “Abyss Demonic Eye” killed by me long ago?

The monster civilization has been destroyed, and the "matrix" that can modulate the demon gods has also lost 99.99% of its activity.

Why is anyone else affected?

"We speculate that it is the extremely complex spiritual magnetic environment in the Kirigakure Realm and the ancient information deep in the No. 2 ruins that work together and subtly to distort the human spirit."

The doctor said, "Since this is the place where monster civilization was nurtured, when humans stay here for a long time and conduct high-intensity scientific research and practice, they also have to endure great mental pressure, and it is inevitable that some people's thinking will go wrong.

matter."

Such a conclusion made Meng Chao frown.

They met Mahon in another ward.

Fortunately, Ma Hong finally broke away from the influence of his obsession and regained his consciousness with his perseverance and willpower.

Even so, he still had sunken eye sockets and a haggard expression, as if he had just completed a three-month survival mission in the wild.

"I don't know how I became so crazy..."

Ma Hong's face was bloodless and his lips were chapped. Looking at his own flesh and blood bursting due to excessive exertion, exposing his bones, and his hands that had just been sutured, he said in a trembling voice, "At that time, my eyes were blank, and I had hallucinations in a trance, as if I

He turned into a monster, and everyone around him also turned into the most ferocious and hideous monster on the ancient battlefield.

"But there is a voice that keeps echoing in the depths of my mind, 'Kill it, kill them, kill all the monsters, devour their flesh and blood, devour their bones and dregs every bit, and evolve.

, evolve, keep evolving, evolve into the king of monsters, soar in the starry sky!

"I was fascinated by the sound.

"It's like my...meaning of life.

"I fully embraced the monster's identity.

"I am not only angry, but also full of joy and plunge into this fight between monsters!"

Ma Hong's self-report attracted great attention from the medical team and the Heritage Research Institute.

It sounds like the "Ancient Call" has become more powerful.

In the past, there were many extraordinary beings who were disturbed by ancient information deep in the ruins of No. 2, and had various hallucinations before their eyes.

He even turned into a monster in his nightmare, literally secreting black mucus and forming huge pupae.

But nightmares hurt themselves most.

Before today, no extraordinary person had ever lost control to this extent.

"Could it be that the 'matrix' is not completely dead yet?"

Meng Chao highly doubted, "Its cells still maintain weak activity, and its energy source continues to spread its life magnetic field to the outside world?"

"It depends on how you define 'matrix'."

Lu Siya said, "In a narrow sense, if you only define the 'matrix' as the 'microbrain' plus the 'macrobrain', these two thinking organs are still under the absolute control of humans even if they have not completely lost their activity.

, we used a lead shield doped with seven layers of super alloy plates to seal them tightly to ensure that no psychic ripples similar to brain waves can leak out.

"However, the 'mother body' is, after all, an ancient creature that is several kilometers long, wide and high, buried deep underground, and whose tentacles can even extend to spar veins hundreds of kilometers away. Many of its cells are...

It shows the characteristics of plant cells, and for many plants, just cutting off a branch or even spreading a spore can give birth to a new life.

"So, even if it is hit by the space-based orbit of the ancient civilization and our continuous indiscriminate bombing, no one can guarantee that the 'matrix' will be completely dead.

"Broaden the definition of life, who says that only flesh and blood is real life? You know, the 'ancients' have already embarked on the path of spiritual ascension. For the 'ancients', the importance of the magnetic field of life

Sex is probably greater than the original flesh and blood body.

"Although the 'Matrix' is not such a pure energy form of life, it is a creation of the 'Ancients' after all, and is naturally influenced by the 'Ancients'.

"You also know that during the long dormancy of hundreds of millions of years, the life magnetic field of the 'mother body' gradually merged with the magnetic field of the surrounding planets. The extreme weather in the Kirigakure Territory, the direction of the spar veins, including the surrounding

The fog in the Monster Mountains is more or less affected by the 'Matrix'.

“Then, can the entire Kirigakure Realm, or even the entire Monster Mountain Range, be regarded as part of the ‘matrix’ and an extension of its will?

"So, although we have defeated the monster civilization, the undead souls of the monster civilization may still be wandering in this mist-shrouded world!"

Lu Siya's guess made Meng Chao's hair stand on end.

What is even more chilling are the results of the psychic tests of the out-of-control extraordinary beings.

After a series of rigorous psychic tests, the average psychic index of the out-of-control supernatural beings is 134.

Even the test results of Ma Hong and others were only 173.

This is a very strange thing.

The mental index is the only standard that can measure the mental health of extraordinary people under the current level of technology in Dragon City.

The spiritual index is usually maintained at 100 units, which represents mental health, firm will, and a balanced mentality.

If you encounter strange events and see indescribable horrors, such as hideous and ugly monsters eating human internal organs, etc., your spiritual index may drop all the way.

When the spiritual index falls below 80, humans will feel deep fear.

When the spiritual index falls below 60, spiritual fear will be fed back to the physiological level, and humans will have shortness of breath, weak limbs, and even be unable to lift a sword.

When the spiritual index falls below 40, the human brain will go blank and be completely overwhelmed by fear.

When the psychic index plummets below 10, human beings may go crazy at any time, or even be directly brain-dead.

Of course, with the successive victories of Dragon City Civilization, this situation no longer happens.

In the torrent of steel and the vigorous strategic attack, the brain waves of countless people inspired each other, and the courage of unity burned brightly, illuminating everyone's hearts.

Even if an ordinary soldier of the Red Dragon Army faces the doomsday beast, his spiritual index will not easily drop to zero.

However, although plummets are scary, surges are also harmful.

When the spiritual index exceeds 10, human beings will feel twice as courageous and will regard death as home.

When the psychic index exceeds 140, human beings will feel that they are invincible and invincible, and they will not look down upon even the most violent beasts.

When the psychic index exceeds 160, human beings will gradually be controlled by the impulse to kill and destroy, and gradually lose their rationality.

When the psychic index exceeds 00, just like when the psychic index returns to zero, human beings will go crazy at any time and become a pure killing machine.

When he rises from the fight, he no longer distinguishes whether he is a monster or a human being who falls under his sword.

Judging from the performance of Ma Hong and other out-of-control extraordinary beings just now, even if their psychic index has not exceeded 00, it should be almost the same.

How come, the average index is only 134?

You must know that unlike a decrease in the psychic index, the benefits of an increase in the psychic index outweigh the disadvantages. Dragon City's combat theory has always encouraged extraordinary people to increase their psychic index and enter a state of "controllable anger."

Many cultivation systems have secret methods to stimulate the brain and raise the spiritual index to the range of 10 to 140.

Experts believe that maintaining the spiritual index within this range can not only ensure sanity, but also gain an increase in combat effectiveness through anger, and is also full of fearless courage, which is the most suitable state for fighting.
