【Twisted Mask of Pain】
【Unidentified】
[Appraisal price: 100 Silence Points]
Lu Ban spent 100 silence points to identify the mask.
The scarred, shocking mask became more and more distorted.
Lu Ban saw that the description of the mask became blurred and distorted, and then quickly turned into understandable words.
【Twisted Mask of Pain】
【alienation】
[The remains of a polluted person from a foreign land, a perfect mask]
[The air in the Fog City is highly toxic, and the people in the Fog City have evolved a body suitable for survival under long-term erosion]
[When this gray fog merges with the pollution from foreign lands, a more powerful force is born]
【Wear it and you will become a foggy city person】
[“Be careful not to cough out any part of your internal organs when you cough. You know what I mean!”]
"Misty City?"
Lu Ban saw another new term, and it seemed that this should be the name of the foreign land where the Bandage Man lived.
Assuming that the original inhabitants of these foreign lands were all humans, then these foreign lands have obviously been more seriously polluted, leading to the alienation of humans.
This gave Lu Ban two revelations.
First of all, the evil gods that pollute these worlds may not be the same person. They may rule over different foreign lands.
The second is that even if polluted, human beings can still survive in a civilized form.
“So there are also differences in the levels of pollution, and the interaction between different domains is the process of pollution penetration.”
Because so far, Lu Ban has not seen anything that can remove pollution, so he can use this as a basis to deduce the first law of pollution in many foreign lands, that is, pollution is irreversible, and all pollution will only gradually deepen and will not decrease.
The entire foreign land will be in a state of constant pollution.
When a highly polluted foreign area comes into contact with a less polluted foreign area, the pollution will flow into the less polluted foreign area, leading to the alienation of the other side.
Therefore, it is necessary to take the initiative to contaminate one's own foreign land to ensure that one will not suffer serious trauma when in contact with foreign lands.
The first indicator of whether a civilization can survive in pollution is its ability to adapt to pollution.
Lu Ban picked up the mask and decided to try it on.
It doesn’t cost any money anyway.
However, in order to prevent the previous situation from happening again, where he would be unconscious and sleep for a whole day and miss the delicious breakfast and lunch, Lu Ban came to the yard under the sunshine.
There was no one else in the courtyard. It was still early, and the witches might be doing their morning prayers.
He stretched his body, loosened up his muscles, picked up the mask and put it on.
When the mask touched Lu Ban's face, it suddenly grew some black sticky tentacles.
These tentacles were located at the edge of the mask, stuck to his face, and immediately drilled into his skin, like a wound that had been stitched.
Lu Ban felt his facial skin being torn apart, and the grass grew rapidly and tried to break through his skin. This was an instinctive reaction. Lu Ban suppressed it slightly, and the mask fitted his face without any discomfort.
With the mask as the center, the gray fog spread and covered Lu Ban's body.
He felt himself becoming light and airy, as if some qualitative change had taken place in his entire being.
Raising his hand, Lu Ban saw that his body had turned into grayish-white mist and was wrapped in mottled bandages.
As long as Lu Ban is willing, he can turn into green smoke and wander around freely. He can get into the secret room through tiny gaps, and he can also use this to get into the human body.
"A bit like Feng Yu?"
Lu Ban felt that this state was somewhat similar to the time when Feng Yu entered his body before.
As for the bandages, they are also extensions of the body, or the body with a lower level of sensitivity, like nails.
Lu Ban can use bandages to conduct preliminary tests on things, and once he is sure that they are harmless, he can then make contact with them with Gray Mist's body.
Perhaps this is what the Bandage Man does when faced with contamination.
Feeling an unprecedented wonderful state, Lu Ban's mind suddenly started buzzing.
This is the resentment from the filth, the madness of the bandaged man race, and the anger of the chosen one as an individual. All of these are intertwined, making it impossible for Lu Ban to maintain his body, which keeps shrinking and expanding like a cloud that is breathing violently.
Bang——
Accompanied by a loud bang, Lu Ban disappeared.
He turned into a sparse cloud of mist, spreading throughout the yard.
This sparse state made his consciousness also become thin and difficult to concentrate.
At this time, a witch walked into the yard.
There were two people accompanying her, none other than Amber.
Looking much more dignified and calm, she came to the door of the house, looked at the wide open door, and called a few times, but got no response.
"Did he go down the mountain?"
The witch behind her asked curiously.
"Why is there so much dust in this yard? It has stained my clothes."
Another witch covered her nose as she looked at the gray courtyard that looked like it had been hit by a sandstorm.
At this time, they didn't know that Lu Ban was here.
Through the gray fog, he could feel everything on these priestesses and in their bodies. He could see that one of the two priestesses following Amber had a knee injury and the other had a liver strain.
Out of politeness, Lu Ban helped Amber check her body.
Very healthy, just a little underdeveloped.
He originally wanted to rely on his consciousness to concentrate himself, but then he changed his mind and thought that if he suddenly showed up at this time, Amber would mistake him for a bandaged man and burn him to death.
The desire to survive made Lu Ban remain where he was, just waiting for Amber to leave.
Amber didn't find Lu Ban, so she left a note and left with the priestesses.
Just as Lu Ban was about to shrink and condense into a human form, he felt someone coming into the yard again.
"Why are there so many guests today?"
As he was thinking, he felt the coming.
That's not human.
A woman in a red and white shrine maiden costume suddenly appeared in the courtyard. She had dark hair, pale skin, and eyes the color of light pink cherry blossoms.
She just stood in the yard, staring at the note left by Amber.
Lu Ban in smoke form surrounded her, and then found that she was not breathing.
Lu Ban could only try to let the smoke enter her body actively.
However, just as Lu Ban made the attempt, a shudder spread throughout his body, and then Lu Ban felt himself on fire.
It's not a metaphor.
He was really fired up.
A pale flame ignited from the place where the gray fog touched the woman, and colorful black was brewing in the flame.
Lu Ban felt extreme pain, as if a thousand needles were piercing the center of his palm and then roasting it on fire.
He immediately retracted his gaze and moved away from the woman.
As for the location burned by the pure fire, the cloud of smoke was directly thrown away by Lu Ban, fell to the ground, and quickly extinguished.
After tearing off the mask on his face, Lu Ban found that the woman had disappeared.
Grass continues to grow all over the body, and these new green plants thrive in the sunlight.
