Since The Red Moon Appeared

"Is this the thing?"

Slightly exhaling, Lu Xin looked down at the thing in his hand.

Unexpectedly, what was stolen from this forest turned out to be a plastic doll with a strange shape.

She is twenty centimeters long and short, and her body is made of a black soft plastic material. . She was wearing a delicately cut white skirt, which looked like a wedding dress. There is an indescribably distorted sense of facial features, with a weird and stiff smile.

Lu Xin's right hand held her body tightly.

She could feel her body trembling, and she could barely hold the poker cards in her arms.

Turning his head suddenly, he bit Lu Xin's thumb with a big bite.

Lu Xin frowned, and immediately squeezed all the bones in her body, and immediately let go of her mouth, tears welled up in her eyes.

...

...

"Parasite?"

At this moment, Dr. An's voice sounded.

I saw several other researchers also followed up.

Their expressions were more or less strange, as they approached, they secretly looked at Lu Xin's appearance.

Even the two doctors Zhang and Wang, as well as the three masters Li, have reached a unity in expression and temperament for the first time.

Instead of staring at each other all the time and wanting to kill each other, they all aimed at Lu Xin...

There is one thing to say, Lu Xin is really wronged.

"It's somewhat similar, but it's not like a standard parasite..."

Lu Xin automatically ignored the gazes of these three people, but looked down at the little thing in his hand, pondered slightly, and said:

"I can feel that she is not the source of the pollution just now, but more like a puppet..."

"The real monster is hiding in this forest, but unfortunately, when I wanted to catch it, it escaped..."

"Honestly, it's kind of frustrating."

"..."

While speaking, he shook his head slightly, feeling really unhappy.

And the little plastic bride who was held in his right hand also trembled slightly, as if sensing Lu Xin's emotions.

"this……"

Seeing Lu Xin's disappointed expression, Dr. An and the others had somewhat strange expressions.

Dr. An was silent for a while, glanced at the things in Lu Xin's hand, and suddenly said, "Do you know what you just did?"

"Um?"

Seeing that her expression suddenly became serious, Lu Xin was a little surprised.

I quickly calculated in my heart, did I not do something that was not up to standard, and reached the seriousness of deducting money?

"well……"

Dr. An sighed softly, and said: "You have just successfully rescued a high-level forbidden creature that was attacked by them in someone else's field. And in less than a second, you brutally occupied it. The opponent's field. And the core of this field, it can also be said to be the lord in the opponent's territory, was arrested. It even made the opponent have no chance to escape..."

After a slight pause, she said: "Although she did escape in the end, she paid a very high price to escape."

"And you, you still feel a little lost, as if you are very reluctant..."

"..."

"this……"

Hearing what Dr. An said, Lu Xin suddenly felt a little confused.

"So, I seem to be unreasonable?"

"..."

"It's just too unreasonable."

A sweet smile suddenly appeared on Dr. An's face, and his voice became tired: "And he's quite manly..."

"ah?"

Lu Xin was taken aback by this change of hers, blushed slightly, and took a step back indistinctly.

At the same time, Dr. Wang and Dr. Zhang didn't know what to think of, and they suddenly took a step forward at the same time.

Blocked Master Li strictly.

Master Li was furious immediately, and said to the two people: "Get out of the way."

Lu Xin was slightly startled, and thought silently in his heart: "Don't get out of the way..."

At the same time, he didn't notice that even the plastic bride in his palm hugged his thumb tightly.

...

...

"This, this..."

It's really strange to feel that this topic will go off track at any time.

Lu Xin also got angry in a hurry, and said with a serious face: "However, what level does this thing belong to?"

Frowning slightly, he thought carefully: "Fantasy Kingdom?"

"Whether it is a fantasy country or not, it must have surpassed the fourth step."

Dr. An flexibly switched between winking eyes and seriousness, and immediately switched to the serious mode, and analyzed lightly: "If it is only a spiritual lord, it is absolutely impossible to cause another spiritual lord to cause serious damage in such a short period of time. So much pressure."

"Even almost, she can be sealed."

"It's just that if it's the existence of the fifth step, it feels like..."

"..."

She paused slightly, didn't say the following words, but looked at her eyes slightly.

If that is really the existence of the fifth step, then, did Lu Xin act a little too aggressively?

She didn't say this, so it didn't cause discussion for the time being.

It's just that when everyone heard her mention Sisi, they all turned their heads subconsciously.

Not far away, the little girl named Sisi was sitting on the ground, silently putting the metal rings that she had just removed on various parts of her body. While restraining his body, he looked up at a place with a calm expression.

Including Dr. An, several others were suddenly a little surprised.

They knew Sisi well, so they knew that to Sisi, this was equivalent to smiling.

After returning from the verge of completely losing control, she actually immediately released her kindness to something?

Only Lu Xin understood this scene, and suddenly felt his heart soften slightly.

In his field of vision, he saw his sister sitting next to the little girl named Sisi.

While looking at her curiously, he silently took the metal suppressors that had fallen in various places and handed them to her.

Both of them looked very gentle, and there was a little tacit understanding.

Sister, did you finally make friends?

...

...

"Alas..."

At this moment, the two doctors, Wang and Zhang, also reacted from the drastic change just now, and the panic that Master Li suddenly became interested in Lu Xin, and looked at Lu Xin with a little emotion. , said: "It was too chaotic just now, we really didn't see clearly what happened... The doll and playing cards in your hand were thrown by monsters?"

"It was snatched from a hallucination..."

Lu Xin responsibly recounted the experience just now.

They should not have seen the experience in the hallucination, but only saw the confrontation in reality.

"I almost drew Si Si into the painting?"

After hearing Lu Xin's narration, everyone was also slightly taken aback, and looked down at the playing card.

I saw a square K.

Judging from the format, it looks like the product of a deck of cards with the Jack of Spades in his black bag.

However, this piece of diamond K only has numbers and suits, but there is a blank space in the middle, which is clean and shimmering.

In the fantasy world, the drawing board on which the girl draws is this playing card.

Now that I hold it in my hand, I can faintly feel some mysterious attraction, like a magnet.

"Sure enough, it is the key to the abyss."

When Dr. An saw the playing card, his expression changed slightly and he nodded slightly.

Dr. Wang next to him followed closely, and added in a low voice: "Moreover, it is a key with forced parasitic characteristics."

Lu Xin cast a puzzled look at them.

There is a feeling of familiarity with what they said, but they don't fully understand it.

"Abyss Group, every ability can be called a key."

Dr. An explained softly: "These keys allow people to use the abyss to perform various incredible performances."

"It's like the ability of a capable person."

"Each different key can open different levels of abyss and use the authority of the abyss."

"The only one who is good at using playing cards to use this ability is that mysterious organization—the Spade Office."

"The lurkers have investigated some clues about them before."

"It is said that they have a complete set of keys to the abyss, and they can be produced in batches."

"..."

"Mass production?"

This word startled Lu Xin somewhat, and his mood fluctuated slightly.

The meaning of mass production is that people with abilities like Xia Worm or Black Jack seen in Black Swamp City.

How much can I have?

"I'm more concerned about this forced parasite..."

As soon as Dr. An finished speaking, Dr. Wang also looked at the playing cards in Lu Xin's hand, and said in a low voice: "Parasites are some abnormal spirits or sources of pollution. Due to various factors and coincidences, they entered a certain place. species and form a stable structure.”

"Forcibly parasitizing means creating something that can forcibly pull in these special spiritual forces..."

"It's, like, sort of, a seal."

"..."

Dr. An's face darkened slightly, and he said in a low voice, "This means..."

Dr. Zhang sighed lowly, and said: "It means that they are making spiritual parasites, and they are about to catch up with us."

...

...

Not leading means that the research institute has similar methods?

Even more advanced?

Lu Xin felt a slight headache for a while.

What kind of people are these, or they regard the abyss as a power distribution room that can be opened at will.

Either treat the special spirit body as a randomly captured Pokémon...

The power born from mental mutation is numerous and extremely chaotic, and the brains of these people...

...It seems that there are always more than mental abnormalities.

"no matter what……"

After a while, Lu Xin sighed and stuffed the black playing cards into his black bag.

Then he turned his head and looked: "Let's talk about that place after investigating that place first!"

...

...

After hearing his words, Dr. An and the others also turned around at the same time and looked down the slope.

After experiencing this confrontation in terms of spiritual power, most of the long-lasting spiritual radiation that always existed in this dense forest has been scattered, and similarly, the endless dense forest just now suddenly became brighter. a lot of.

Looking from this place, they could already see a group of black buildings appearing at the foot of the mountain three or four miles down the slope.

The former site of the research institute, or the ruins of the Red Moon Research Institute, is at the foot of the mountain.

From a distance, it was a dark and old building.

There is a large lake next to it, which looks sparkling in the twilight, and has a strange tranquility.

But unlike the dilapidated collapse of other city ruins, this site still looks intact.

You can see a large area of ​​low-rise buildings, as well as rusted barbed wire.

It only looks old, not broken.

However, compared to those deserted cities, this building located at the foot of the mountain has a different kind of lifelessness.

The breath of desolation rushed over in just one glance.

The place is finally here.

This means that their investigation team has broken through the taboo line that plagued the research institute before?

Everyone had such an idea in their hearts.

But after thinking about it, he shook his head again, not necessarily, because the previous investigators may not have rushed here.

Perhaps they've arrived and even done enough research.

It's just that there is no way to successfully deliver the message back, so the danger may still exist.

...

...

"Yes, instead of thinking so much, it's better to finish our investigation mission first."

Dr. An also let out a sigh of relief, looked at the building below, and said in a low voice, "Let's go!"

It is now dusk, and the research institute seems to be close to the slope. In fact, if you want to find a way to get there, you will have to walk for at least another 30 minutes. That is to say, when they arrive, it is very likely It has already entered the night.

It stands to reason that it is better to investigate such a weird place during the day.

But after thinking about it, because of investigating such a weird place, what is the difference between day and night?

Then, let's go?

With this thought in mind, everyone rearranged their luggage.

After taking a short break, he drank some water, and then walked down the hill with one deep foot and one shallow foot.

Lu Xin took the initiative to land at the back of the team, to prevent any ulterior motives in this forest, and to take advantage of the last short distance of the people to leave the forest, and then do anything wrong to them.

However, the forest behind it seems to have been conquered.

To be honest, there is no abnormality at all.

Towering giant trees watched them quietly, their branches stretched out, as if sending him away.

Lu Xin's mood was very calm at this time, probably because he found that he could beat the forest once, and he felt relaxed.

Although the guy who hid in the dark and escaped was a bit worrying.

But after such a collision of power, Lu Xin is not afraid of it anymore.

In addition, not only himself, Lu Xin found that his sister seemed to be in a good mood as well.

She happily scurried around beside Sisi, her small face was full of curiosity and closeness, occasionally she would approach Sisi suddenly, poke Sisi carefully, then put Sisi back on the heavy down jacket, A thread of blood came out and poked her back.

Then the two faced each other, giggling at the same time.

"These two people..."

Deliberately releasing the "fantasy" ability, let Si Si see her sister, Lu Xin thought: "It's so childish..."

It's a good thing that my sister started to make friends.

Although there are many strange things about my sister recently, Lu Xin feels that this kind of strangeness is what he is most happy to see.

...

...

After about half an hour, they had already followed the path to the foot of the mountain, and then along the lake, they came to the ruins.

Looking up at this gray complex of buildings that had been submerged under the crimson moon, it was tall and desolate.

Hongyue stayed quietly in the sky, half blocked by the mountains, looking a little scared, and hid.

As a result, almost the entire building of the research institute was buried in deep darkness. The trees in the surrounding forest, like rows of dark pacesetters, stood behind the building. Loyally guarding her, but also watching all comers.

Faintly, Lu Xin suddenly had a strange emotion welling up in his heart.

When looking at the research institute from this angle, it should be a particularly strange place.

However, he had an unprecedented sense of familiarity.

Even when he was looking at the building, a strange throbbing emerged from the bottom of his heart.

This is obviously just an old building that is empty and deserted, and can't even feel weird.

But in Lu Xin's eyes, it seemed to be breathing and wriggling.

On those buildings, the black windows are like eyes, hidden in the darkness, quietly looking at themselves.

Am I too nervous?

Lu Xin stared at the dark window for a long time, and suddenly felt a little ridiculous.

Shaking his head slightly, he turned around.

But at this moment, a voice suddenly rang clearly in my ears: "You are finally back..."

"Shua!"

Lu Xin turned around suddenly, fixed his eyes on the research institute, and the hairs on his back exploded.

It's the last day of the month, please ask for tickets, the old ghost has been getting more and more fierce recently.
