Chapter 39 Double Vision
Song Nanxing and Gang Jue nodded and then immediately shook their heads. I pursed my lips, put the knife on my back and went out.
During the time we've been together, I've gotten to know them better. They're all very trustworthy teammates and very good people.
It’s just that sometimes everyone likes to “hurt each other”, which is normal. The Abnormal Investigation Bureau needs to face all unknown departments directly. If there is no mediation, they will probably go crazy.
We took the elevator all the way to the ground and came out of the abandoned factory building on the ground. To be on the safe side, we specially found a location farther away from the base.
Chen Yubing took out a test tube, opened the lid, and the gas inside floated out of the test tube.
I smelled a faint smell of blood.
After a while, a rustling sound came from the wild woods next to it.
Something is coming.
The next second, a shadow suddenly jumped out from the nearby bushes and rushed towards us.
Almost at the same time, I pulled out my dagger and stabbed it hard in the direction of the shadow. A mutant creature that was not too big was pinned to the ground by my dagger.
…
Amidst everyone's intriguing looks, I smiled awkwardly.
"I was a little nervous and accidentally killed it, haha..."
However, I found that even if I killed the monster directly now, or the smell of blood in the test tube, I would still subconsciously desire it when I smelled it, but there was no sign of losing control.
As if sensing my doubts, Song Nanxing explained:
"The smell of blood and monsters wasn't the cause of your loss of control. You were so afraid of turning into a monster before because you couldn't accept yourself as that. Now that you've accepted it, the fear is gone, and naturally there won't be any signs of mutation."
We waited a while longer, but still nothing came.
"Does this thing of yours work?" Song Nanxing looked at Chen Yubing doubtfully.
Chen Yubing shook his head. "The chance of infection isn't 100% anyway. Monsters aren't everywhere, not to mention we killed quite a few a few days ago."
"Let's do it the old way." Song Nanxing shrugged and looked back at me.
The old way? What old way?
Soon I vaguely guessed what the old method they were talking about was, because after Song Nanxing finished speaking, Gang Jue and Chen Yubing also turned around and looked at me.
Moreover, the Steel Lord has already set up his crossbow.
The next second, I heard the sound of an air stream being cut through. I gasped and quickly dodged. The arrow broke through the air and passed by my face.
"Damn! I knew it..."
Before I could stand firm, I saw the tattoo on Song Nanxing's neck spreading again. At the same time, his veins bulged and he punched me directly.
As soon as I moved away, I saw a big hole was created where I was standing.
Good boy, I will definitely ask Song Nanxing to come and beat up Beef Ball next time.
Chen Yubing, who was standing aside, also joined the battle.
"Holy crap...are you guys human? You came up with skills?"
As I dodged and maneuvered, I carefully felt my arms, trying to find the feeling I had at that time.
However, no matter how I tried, I couldn't get it right. It was impossible to defeat the siege of the three of them just by relying on my keen intuition.
Even after high-intensity training and actual combat during this period, he could only barely ensure that he would not get hurt when facing the three of them, and had no room for counterattack at all.
I saw an arrow flying straight towards me. The surface of the arrow was covered with a faint halo, which seemed to contain great power.
My mind raced as I thought of a strategy and decided to take a gamble.
If I were in danger, there would be a Morse code alert, so wouldn't this be a good opportunity?
It's risky, but I trust them.
Thinking of this, I simply stopped dodging. At this time, Song Nanxing also followed closely. Seeing that my movements suddenly slowed down, he was shocked and wanted to withdraw, but it was too late. Although it was three against one and everyone let up a little, he didn't show too much mercy and was about to hit me.
Chen Yubing also widened his eyes in horror and kicked the Tang sword over to try to stop Song Nanxing.
Just before the arrow was about to pierce me, my heart suddenly beat very rapidly. The feeling was very obvious, and the frequency was completely different from that of a normal heartbeat.
It's the frequency of Morse code!
Although this time I didn't understand what message it conveyed at all - because no Morse code letters were of this frequency.
However, due to the abnormal beating of the heart, the body also reacted.
My arm suddenly felt itchy, not the usual itchy feeling on the surface of the skin, but the kind of itchy feeling that came from inside. At the same time, I suddenly grasped that feeling and concentrated my attention on my arm.
The next second, I suddenly felt that I had a slightly lower field of vision, and I could clearly see and predict Song Nanxing and his trajectory flying towards me.
And even with double vision, my brain is still able to process the information and respond quickly.
I rolled sideways and kicked the flying arrow away, redirecting its trajectory towards Song Nanxing. Song Nanxing supported himself on the ground with his left hand and forced himself to bounce away to avoid the arrow.
Everything happened in a flash.
"Oh my god, you...you scared me to death." Gang Jue widened his eyes and spoke incoherently.
Song Nanxing and Chen Yubing also breathed a sigh of relief.
To be honest, it wasn't just them, I was also terrified at that moment.
Although I was prepared to get hurt, it was still unknown whether I could withstand that kind of attack. I was really gambling with my life.
I glanced down at my arm and saw the eyes on it blinking back at me, a double image of the arm and my own face appearing in my vision.
Judging from the feeling just now, the function of this eye is a bit like a slow-motion machine.
The movement trajectories of all things can be traced in this eye, just like an invisible air flow trajectory.
Not only that, I seemed to be able to switch my main vision freely. I tried switching back and forth between my usual vision and the vision on my arm in my mind, which felt a bit novel.
Unlike my initial fear, I am now somewhat happy about this eye. This skill just happens to match my high sensitivity, and if used well in actual combat, it might have miraculous effects.
On the other hand, I also verified my previous guess.
The prompt using Morse code frequency does appear at certain points.
As things stand, this thing is harmless to me for the time being.
Although I don’t know the cause, and I don’t know if there will be other changes in the future, but at least for now, this thing can serve as my temporary support.
I can even use its prompts to fight against the whispers that may appear in my mind at any time.
But I still had a question, so I asked it while they were all here.
"Why didn't I develop this thing when I first got the red thread infection?"
