Lachesis manipulated every muscle fiber on his face, trying to make his expression as natural as possible.
But the more he did this, the more hypocritical he appeared in the eyes of others.
Fortunately, because being commended is something that will arouse jealousy, no one thought of him as a hypocrite. They just muttered in their hearts that Ain was really hypocritical.
He looked at the factory director with some difficulty, and the expression on his face seemed to say:
"I helped you, why did you hurt me?"
But Ain didn't say this out loud. In the end, he just asked with a complicated expression and an equally complicated tone:
"Why did you inform us of this good news only now?"
"Hey, I thought of giving you a surprise."
The factory director laughed, and the wrinkles on his face were squeezed together.
Lachesis's rage burned fiercely in his heart. If it weren't for the fact that this happened in public, he would probably have his puppets deployed to refine this human on the spot.
"Thank you so much."
He said this while suppressing his anger, and then he and the others were taken out by several strong men.
Walking out of the factory gate, the burly man in the lead looked at Ain and asked with some confusion:
"You don't seem to want to be praised?"
"What are you talking about?"
Ain smiled apologetically:
"If I had known something like this was going to happen today, I would have come here wearing something more normal."
As he spoke, he pointed to a few stains on his body, and with a regretful tone and expression, he indicated that he could have done better instinctively.
"Don't think too much. Your factory manager is also trying not to affect production, otherwise the commendation should have started at the end of last month."
Lachesis was already able to imitate humans to 80% of their original appearance. He knew that he couldn't just complain at this time, but also needed to show his own uniqueness.
How can a person who is always complaining be praised?
So he casually changed the subject:
"That's true. So, what's your name, big brother?"
The burly man beside him scratched his short-haired head, as if he just remembered something:
“I forgot to introduce myself. Actually, there are a few of us here for today’s commendation. We just came by to pick you up.
"My name is Liu Xiaoheng, just call me Brother Liu."
Several people got on an all-terrain vehicle, and Ain began to imagine what would happen to him next.
After the initial shock, Lachesis quickly realized the fact that this recognition was not only a danger but also an opportunity.
The information sent back by the humanoid bodies constructed last time was really limited. This time he must master more things related to humans.
Having made up his mind, Lachesis decided to modify his plan and start making plans from this moment on.
The puppets in the car looked at each other. Although there was no change on the surface of their bodies, they had actually begun to continuously strengthen their biofields, just like continuously increasing the voltage of a light bulb.
Such a biological field is bound to corrode the several strong men around him. As long as the minds of these people can be corroded appropriately, a hypnotic effect can be achieved without completely controlling them.
The biological field controlled by the hyphae began to accumulate layer by layer, and the several strong men around him had some changes. Some felt a little dizzy, and some even vomited twice, as if they were carsick.
But ten minutes passed quickly, and after a few moments of nausea at the beginning, there were no subsequent changes in these strong men.
This surprised Lachesis very much. Through the biofield, he could clearly feel that although the people around him were in very high health, they were not super-powered in essence.
Then for such humans, erosion should be a very simple matter, but why...
Without time to think about it, Lachesis soon discovered a new fatal weakness -
The direction the car is traveling.
Because of the area where its main body was located, Lachesis was eroding the northern part of the outer city area of Hope City, and after picking them up, the all-terrain vehicle began to head south towards the inner city area.
As the distance got deeper, Lachesis noticed a new problem, that is, the biological field belonging to the humans around him was becoming more and more dense, even too dense, so dense that it made the bacteria feel uncomfortable.
However, biofield erosion is not an ability unique to the mycelial will; humans can also carry out erosion in the reverse direction.
It’s just that humans don’t have a supreme will like mycelium that unifies all individuals, which is why this force can only accomplish effects similar to interference and is unable to carry out more sophisticated matters.
But now, the mere disturbance caused by the increasing human density around him made Lachesis sweat profusely.
In human terms, his current network was experiencing fluctuations, and controlling the puppet felt choppy and stuck.
Specifically, on this all-terrain vehicle, the humans who were picked up looked groggy as if they had not woken up yet, with their heads sometimes raised and sometimes lowered, looking more like they were suffering from motion sickness than the strong men.
This scene was of course seen by several strong men around, but when they thought that these were actually workers who had completed their tasks in excess, they felt that they were really hard-working, so they did not remind them, but just silently blocked the surroundings to prevent them from bumping into anything due to sleepiness.
No, this can't go on.
Lachesis's real body could not sit idly by and watch this happen. These human bodies were not only his puppets, but also his eyes, ears, taste buds, and also his brain, capable of assisting in some thinking.
If this continues, his puppets will be completely exposed, and he must make amends.
But seeing that there was not a piece of extra meat on the bodies of the strong men around him, violent resistance was definitely impossible. On the contrary, resistance would only lead to faster death.
Well... there is another way.
At this moment, hundreds of people working normally in the northern part of Hope City put down their tasks at the same time.
Some of them, like Ain and Cheng Fan, are on the assembly line, some are sitting in offices, and some are operating mine carts to transport ore out of underground mines.
But at this moment, they put down all the tasks in their hands, and showed panic expressions at the same time, and started running outside as if someone had suddenly died in the house.
It's not that no one noticed this, but Lachesis couldn't care less at the moment. Whenever someone asked about it, those bodies would give very human answers under His control, such as:
"My stomach suddenly feels uncomfortable."
"There's an emergency at home."
"none of your business."
After leaving their jobs, these hundreds of people quickly blended into the crowd on the street, making their running less conspicuous.
But the direction in which these people were moving was all pointing to the same place, which was the destination of the ATV's trip - the inner city auditorium.
