Abnormal paradise

The distress signal from the control center was not only sent to Yi Jin. The guard adjutant who fled in a panic also saw the message. However, the worst situation inevitably occurred. The dangerous anomaly released by the explosion became a headache. Roadblock.

A thick black fog appeared out of thin air, covering up the light and blocking the way.

At this moment, the guard adjutant's face suddenly became extremely ugly.

"The [Crow-Faced Epidemic Doctor]'s containment facility has also been destroyed? Damn it! It is a highly contaminated anomaly project. If the black mist is allowed to spread, the entire facility will fall!" the guard adjutant said, with cold sweat falling from his ears. , his expression suddenly relaxed again, "Fortunately, it seems that it is just the black mist leaking out, and the Crow-faced Epidemic Doctor has not fully woken up yet. As long as the gap inside the facility is plugged, it should be able to temporarily suppress one or two. Moreover, here can also Take advantage of it and give those bastards a big surprise!"

Immediately, the four players present were once again ruthlessly scrutinized by the guard adjutant.

Fortunately, Zouma, who already lost an arm, was "draged" by his talent and became the next "lucky one". The perception talent he possesses can reduce the suppression of the black fog's vision, so the guard adjutant directly thrust a can of repair spray into his hand regardless of his injured state.

"Next, we will continue to set up traps to delay the Chaos Apostles, and your task is to seal the gap in the containment facility! Remember, you don't have much time, so you must act quickly. When the traps are set up, I will lead people to evacuate immediately. Get out of the black fog range."

The guard adjutant didn't care whether Zouma was willing or not, because the provisions of the employee handbook gave him unlimited power at special moments.

Although he judged from the scope of the dense fog that the Crow-faced Epidemic Doctor had not yet awakened and the facility door was not completely damaged, there might be an accident, leaving low-level employees with no combat effectiveness in the danger zone to conserve their strength to the maximum extent. His only choice.

Seeing Zouma blankly holding the repair spray, the other three players had different expressions.

It will rain tomorrow because of the previous lessons, he no longer dares to join in the fun. The damage to his sanity left by the gray ghost face has not been fully recovered, and there is no cure for half of the blood volume affected by the explosion. He does not want to be the first A player who died.

As for those who are not experts, they still choose to watch silently. He can see that although the reward for his specialty task is small, the risk is also low, almost the same as picking it up for free. Unless he is absolutely sure, he will not choose to take risks. .

But at this moment, Fish Scale Arm quietly took a step forward and suggested to the guard adjutant who was silently planning that he and Zouma perform the mission together. This made Zouma, who was isolated and helpless, immediately see a life-saving straw. Furthermore, the guard adjutant did not completely let the players fend for themselves. After allocating the area responsible for setting up traps, he asked the guards near the gate to lead the way for the players, which also served as surveillance.

In the Abnormal Paradise, there is actually a special term used to describe the black mist coming from the abnormal items, and that is - Dark Curtain.

Every abnormal item carries a dark curtain to a greater or lesser extent. For example, when you first see the brocade, it is because of the dark curtain that the bright light cannot illuminate the whole body. It is rare for the Dark Curtain to turn into mist and cover a place like the Crow-Faced Plague Doctor. If it is allowed to develop wildly, it will cause an unmanageable situation. Therefore, compared with brocade and endless stairs, the Raven-Faced Plague Doctor's containment facilities are longer. More rigorous.

But even so, the elusive explosive ball of light still opened a long and narrow crack.

The black mist surged out like a wildly dancing snake and merged into the growing Dark Curtain Realm. Although it had not been long since the Chaos Apostles launched the surprise attack, the gas concentration in the Dark Curtain Realm had already reached the liquefaction limit. The walls and floors made of alloy were corroded by the black solution and became pitted in the blink of an eye. , and even almost let Zouma step in directly.

"At present, it seems that the difficulty of completing this task is not high. At least... it is much easier than Ember's."

Fish Scale Arm gently reminded Zouma that he and Zouma were not completely separated from the large army like Ember. Even though the visibility was extremely low in the black fog, he could always see the back of the guard leading the way. This was better than the player acting alone. Be reassuring.

Hearing this, Zouma's expression softened. With his perceptual talent, he could see an area larger than the Fish Scale Arm. As long as he was more careful, it was easy to avoid the black puddles on the ground. Therefore, with an experienced player accompanying him, With the armed guards leading the way, the rest of the way was smooth sailing.

"This is it, move quickly!"

Not long after, the guard leading the way stopped suddenly. It was clear that the gate was still shrouded in thick fog, but he just didn't want to take another step. The two players' hearts sank, because they all felt the guard's uneasiness.

But what the players don't know is that even if they hold a gun in their hands, they can't make the guard feel at ease. The moist and oppressive darkness brings huge pressure to him. His eyes constantly scan the source of the black mist and then quickly avoid it. , as if there is a wild beast hiding there that will break out of the cage at any time.

"I want to set up a trap and have no time to care about you! But if you want to be lazy, you know the consequences!"

Anyone could see that the guard had a stern expression but he looked at each other, but they could only do as he was told. The two of them walked slowly and gradually saw the facility door and the long and narrow crack in the door.

"There's not much time, let's get started."

Fish Scale Arm mentioned that although he also received the task, there was only one can of repair spray. He did not intend to snatch the special task of taking the horse, so he decided to assist.

Zouma glanced at the deep crack, responded with a dull sound, and then raised the spray to start repairing it.

However, the moment he pressed the button, the game perspective suddenly changed!

At this moment, he seemed to be transformed into a repair spray. When his eyes moved, the nozzle also moved with it. His palm could no longer do any other action except pressing the button. This strange feeling made Zouma's mind shake, and the spray foam suddenly shook. . Fish Scale Arm standing aside thought something was emerging from the crack. He looked at it with vigilance, but did not find any clues. At this time, the horse returned to normal. When Fish Scale Arm saw this, he did not disturb him. other side.

puff……

Although the change of perspective was very strange, Zouma didn't pay much attention to it. His eyes moved slowly along the edge of the crack, and the white foam sprayed and solidified quickly, gradually sealing the defective area.

"This task is not difficult!"

The repair speed was faster than expected, and Zouma breathed a sigh of relief. However, the strange behavior of the guard who led the way just now seemed to be a thorn in his heart. He always glanced at the cracks uneasily, and even the jet trajectory trembled from time to time. For a moment, Fish Scale Arm mistakenly thought that he was very timid, and the dark environment alone frightened him uneasily.

Then, Zouma trembled again. Fish Scale Arm didn't pay attention to it, but Zouma frowned because he just felt that there seemed to be a deeper black shadow flashing through the gap in the door...

I read it wrong?

Zouma subconsciously decided that he was too concerned about it, which led to the illusion. It was obvious that the place shrouded in black mist was already invisible, so how could there be something even more ghostly hidden? But when he looked into the depths of darkness again, he suddenly saw a pair of pupilless eyes that looked like an abyss looking "straightly" at him. In an instant, his already changed vision became twisted and rotated, as if The soul is out of body.

[Tip: Since you are under the gaze of the abnormal project Crow-Faced Plague Doctor, you need to undergo a will judgment to avoid this sanity damage. 】

[Tip: Judgment in progress... Your will level is zero, the judgment failed! 】

[Tip: Due to the containment and suppression inside the facility, the sanity damage you receive is greatly reduced. However, abnormal items have special priority and this sanity damage cannot be automatically restored. 】

[Tip: Since you are injured, you have received the mercy of the abnormal project Crow-Faced Plague Doctor. When you suffer sanity damage, the corresponding health points will be restored. 】

[Newbie warning: If your sanity returns to zero, you will fall into a state of madness, and you will have to experience instant death every once in a while. At the same time, your actions will be hindered to a certain extent. 】

Reminders popped up in his eyes one after another, making Zouma finally realize that he had been accidentally hit. He only had thirty points of sanity in total. After only six eye contact, he was forced to face the judgment of immediate death. Just now, he was unable to react in time, and the damage reminders came continuously. He jumped twice. Although his blood volume gradually returned to full, he was undoubtedly one step closer to death.

"This task is indeed not that simple. We still can't take it lightly. If we were slower for a few seconds, wouldn't we be confused and hang here?"

Zouma, who suddenly came back to his senses, quickly moved his eyes away from the gap area. He took a deep breath, suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and then narrowed his eyes to focus his vision, and slowly moved to the edge of the damage. However, the spray button in his hand became as strong as steel at this moment, and it was difficult to press it even with all his strength. He didn't believe this evil, so he simply closed his eyes, but the result was the same.

He opened his eyes with some reluctance. Zouma felt uneasy in his heart. Most of the door barriers were still damaged, but he was in trouble at this moment because he knew that controlling his sight for a long time was not that simple...

Contract is being sent.
