Since The Red Moon Appeared

"Mental illnesses are also contagious?"

Listening to Chen Jing's words, Lu Xin thought of his state, and his mood suddenly fluctuated.

"Yes, that's where the definition of 'pollution' comes from."

"Depending on the source of pollution, the symptoms of being polluted are also different, but each of them is very scary and tricky. On the surface, they may appear to be the same as ordinary people, but there have been irreversible changes on the inside. More importantly, They are different from the lunatics outside the wall, they live with us, and at some point, they will break out and infect others around them.”

Chen Jing nodded and explained slowly: "Just like those people you saw in that cafe just now."

"The spiritual monster in the corner cafe, the initial mutation time could not be determined. When we found him, fifteen people had been infected with him and had extreme depression and chose to commit suicide. It is precisely because of these suicides. The person who made us aware of the existence of this monster, but when we found him, thirty-seven people were deeply infected."

"These thirty-seven people are seriously polluted people. If they are given a physical examination, they will find that all their physical signs are normal, but if they do a psychological evaluation, they will find that they have all suffered serious and irreversible damage. He's still alive, but he's actually completely different from normal people, so we can only seal off this block to prevent them from contaminating other people."

Lu Xin listened, slightly startled: "Then what happens to these people..."

"die!"

Chen Jing said softly: "If it is just a shallow infection, they will fall into depression, and sometimes they can even detect that something is wrong. Although the mortality rate of such an infection is still high, there is still a chance for cure. People, they have been in too deep contact with monsters and have completely lost their self-awareness, so there is absolutely no possibility or necessity for treatment..."

"In the plan, they are all targets to be cleaned up!"

"..."

Hearing this, Lu Xin couldn't help but be surprised: "Isn't it enough to kill that monster?"

"Elimination of the pollution source does not mean that the polluted person is cured immediately."

Chen Jingwei paused, looked at Lu Xin and said, "Mental monsters are just the source of pollution, all other polluted people or things are also at risk of pollution. What you killed in the subway station before is the source of that pollution source. After it dies, those who are deeply infected will escape everywhere, as long as one escapes, it may still develop into a new source of pollution.”

"By that time, the pollution still exists, which means that the spiritual monster is still alive!"

Chen Jing said, smiled, and said: "But don't worry, the surrounding residents have already been emptied, and we have arranged a large number of armed forces to guard every important road. Those who are deeply infected have not escaped, relatively As for spirit monsters, their power is much smaller, they can still be killed by ordinary hot weapons, and they are not so easy to infect others."

"..."

Only then did Lu Xin understand why after the death of the coffee shop clerk, the other "customers" suddenly thought of running away.

Could it be that the spiritual monster realized that it was bound to die, so that the other infected senses escaped, ready to be reborn?

In this case, why doesn't it just leave an infected person outside and help itself regenerate at any time?

"The intelligence of a first-level spiritual monster is not that high."

Chen Jing seemed to know what he wanted to ask, and explained with a smile: "They will only subconsciously infect others, and the severely infected people will also subconsciously gather around him, like a whole, affected by him. It is not until the body is killed that a certain self-consciousness will be born because of the loss of the influence of the main body, but by this time, it is often too late.”

"So it is!"

Lu Xin nodded, he slowly calmed down his emotions, but still couldn't help asking the question he always wanted to ask:

"Since it's so dangerous, then you, if you arrange for me to go in, you won't be afraid that I will also be... polluted?"

"..."

Facing this question, Chen Jing was not surprised at all, even a little surprised that Lu Xin only asked at this time.

"You won't be polluted!"

She put out the cigarette in her hand, looked at Lu Xin and said, "Or, you have been polluted!"

Lu Xin's eyes were momentarily confused: "What?"

"Our assessment is not for sending you to death, but for two purposes."

Chen Jing answered carefully: "One, to determine your ability, and two, to see if you will lose control!"

"The red moon event has brought about a spiritual mutation."

"And the spiritual mutation has led to two consequences. One is the emergence of spiritual monsters. They cannot control their own spiritual power, which will affect the people around them, and will greatly affect the high city walls and the surviving human beings in the world. threat;"

"The second consequence is the emergence of mutants who master mental power and possess mental abilities!"

"..."

As she said, she took the document, turned a page, and pushed it in front of Lu Xin.

Lu Xin saw that there were a lot of complicated data on it, as well as the evaluation of various matters, etc. When he was so big, he scanned it and could only see that there were his own photos, address and age on it. Information and the huge "spider" and other words.

...

...

Chen Jing lit another cigarette, waved her hand to disperse the smoke in front of her, and said, "You are a mental mutant."

"In the analysis of the abilities you have, the first ability is the precise control of the mind over the body!"

"After the Red Moon incident, some people's spirits have become stronger and stronger. With strong mental power, they can better control their bodies, and even control every muscle and every bone of the body. A very terrifying ability!"

"Before the Red Moon incident, the best athletes in the world had only about ten percent control over their bodies."

"But now, there are more and more people who can better control their bodies."

"In our action team, there is a person, code-named 'Gecko', his body control ability has reached 80%, which makes him have unimaginable power, he can dodge bullets , and he can control all kinds of firearms almost perfectly, he can pass through a hole the size of a teacup, and he can climb on the wall as if defying gravity!"

"..."

"After observation, you also have a similar ability!"

Chen Jing explained, pointed to part of the content, and said to Lu Xin: "This ability, we call it the spider system, means that they can precisely control their muscles and even bones like spiders, improve speed and response, and achieve Things that ordinary people can’t do.”

"With this ability, your ability to deal with crises and weirdness is greatly enhanced."

"And you are also mentally abnormal, and you are often easy to find the existence of mental monsters and get rid of danger."

Saying that, she looked at Lu Xin seriously and said, "So, you are very suitable for pollution cleanup work!"
