Chapter 349 Monster Hospital (Part 48)
The 20% infection rate did not have any effect on Beixi like the previous 10% rate. Strictly speaking, Beixi felt something was wrong after being infected in the activity room.
At first, she thought that she was the same as Nan Huan. Her thinking was not affected at all. Only occasionally a picture would flash in her mind. It was the last scene she saw through the illusion in the mission of protecting memories. She seemed to be gradually disappearing. Nan Huan was emitting golden light. He looked at her in pain and shouted something, but she could hear nothing.
The picture froze at this moment and flashed in her mind. At the same time, Bei Xi felt a huge sadness in her heart. It seemed that this was the only sequelae of the infection that she had brought to her. When she asked her second question, the system determined that she was not sincere and she was freed from the punishment of the adventure stage. The degree of infection increased to 20%, and the frequency of this picture appeared more frequently.
At the same time, Bei Xi finally understood through this test what the basis of the system's judgment criteria was.
"So the two questions you asked are choices I have made before?" Bei Xi came back to his senses from the second adventure without any pause. Although this was a question, it was said with a firm tone. It did not seem like he wanted to get an answer from the evil god. Instead, his expression finally showed some seriousness. "It seems that the situation at that time was a little more serious than I thought."
The latter part of the sentence was filled with a half-true, half-false emotion. I didn't know if it was an obvious test or something deliberately said for the evil god to hear.
Although the evil god knew that Bei Xi was very smart, he didn't expect that she could guess it so quickly. After a brief flash of surprise on his face, he returned to his original smiling look. For a while, he seemed to be really curious, "So what kind of situation do you think would cause you to give up the opportunity to be with Nan Huan forever?"
Bei Xi didn't know whether she didn't want to hear everything about Nan Huan from the evil god, or she didn't want to see the other party with a face similar to Nan Huan, talking to her in such a tone, so she answered the question irrelevantly, "Don't waste time, just ask the third question directly. What I care more about is what exactly is the reward from the doctor?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the evil god's face became visibly ugly. Across the table, the evil god stared at Bei Xi with a sinister expression, as if he was touched by these words, and seemed very angry that Bei Xi had grasped the key point of the problem so quickly.
This time, before the system urged her, she looked at Bei Xi provocatively and asked the last question, "If the truth is that if you kill me, Nan Huan will also die, will you still be determined to do it?"
Although Bei Xi had a certain psychological expectation for the Evil God's questions, she still didn't expect that the Evil God's last question would be so straightforward. Moreover, because her question mentioned a fact that Bei Xi was unwilling to face, it made Bei Xi feel very uneasy.
The two interview rooms were separated by only a wall, but the two people could not hear each other's voices. However, if you look at it from the system's God's perspective, you will find that when facing the last question, both of them suddenly lost their composure for a moment, but after a few seconds, they both gave a firm answer of "no".
Man Wugui was not too surprised by Nan Huan's negative answer. There was even a slight smile on his face, as if he was certain that Nan Huan would make such a choice. It was unclear whether he was mocking the other party's unscrupulous means to achieve a certain goal, or simply ridiculing Nan Huan's answer.
【bite--
If the answer is true, you will receive a reward from the doctor. 】
Nan Huan did not show much surprise, as if she had expected this result long ago. Moreover, compared with other things, she cared more about what the reward that Man Wugui tried to conceal was.
As soon as the system finished speaking, Nan Huan's eyes went dark. The interview room and the place she was in disappeared without a trace. She felt as if she was floating up, and her whole body became lighter and lighter, until she felt as if her soul was running out of her body.
Soon, the scene was pitch black, and it seemed that only her tiny soul was left floating there. Suddenly, light and color broke into the darkness, and soon the content that she did not have time to see clearly rushed directly into her soul. She felt that her consciousness was being invaded, and those images and memories quickly roamed in her soul.
Amid the images and memories, Nan Huan felt her consciousness gradually weakening, and she began to sense the other consciousness that rushed into her soul.
The boundless darkness lasted for an unknown amount of time. She seemed to have been in a deep sleep. From an unknown moment on, she felt as if she was being peeled off and cleared away from something. At that moment, she seemed to be waking up and began to truly see the color of light.
However, this process did not last too long, because the moment she woke up, she seemed to be forcibly removed from the place where she originally grew up and fell into the soil. The soil here did not smell very good, but she was abandoned here, and she could feel that her life was disappearing and she was dying.
Perhaps from her current state, it cannot be attributed to "life", but she can already feel that her life is slipping away. An inexplicable sadness rises in her heart or consciousness, maybe because of the light that she just saw briefly, maybe because of the relatively warm place where she grew up, or maybe she just felt that the soil here simply smelled bad.
At that time, she couldn't accurately describe her feelings, but she instinctively realized that she seemed different as she woke up. Just when she wanted to experience more emotions, the soil around her became increasingly cold. When she realized that she might never see the light again, she felt a powerful force.
That powerful force is hidden deep in the soil that I dislike, attracting me to get closer, attracting the life of the light I just saw to get closer. At the same time, that powerful force is accompanied by endless warmth, making people unable to help but fall into the depths.
Anyway, she would never see that kind of light again, so why bother to see what was hidden in the soil? Soon, some wisps of black gas emerged from the ground and entangled her body. The black gas was like a spider web, trapping her as its prey, and then tightening little by little, as if trying to absorb the last of her body's energy.
She didn't understand what pain was, nor could she detect the unusualness of the black air, but the slightest warmth in the black air made her want to embrace it. She felt her breath weakening, and her perception of the soil and black air was getting weaker and weaker.
Just when this very short awakening was about to end, she suddenly felt that the black energy that was binding her loosened because of her active approach. She stood there in a daze, seeming to be struggling with something. After a moment, the black energy entered her body.
She was no longer dying, and her body was continuously filled with the power brought by the black air. She didn't know what was going on, but she felt that the black air was warmer and more comfortable around her.
Although the smell of soil was still unpleasant and it was still pitch black here, the days with the black air as her companion seemed to become more interesting. She could feel that her five senses and body were growing with the help of the power of the black air. Before long, she no longer relied on her senses to see things, but could truly see the darkness.
After staying in the soil for a long time, her eyes had adapted to the darkness. She saw the black air densely wrapping around her, and she seemed to gradually take shape under the encirclement of the black air.
The black air wrapped around her body became more and more. It was no longer like at the beginning, when the black air just wanted to enter her body and give her strength. Instead, it stayed by her side, as if it had gained something else from this way of getting along. The black air that was wrapped around her body was no longer scattered everywhere, but slowly gathered together and took shape.
Later, she had a body, and the black energy took shape. One day, she heard the other party's voice, "You are old enough to go outside and see the color of the sky. Do you remember what you have seen?"
This voice was very pleasant, the most pleasant voice she had ever heard, although she had only heard this kind of voice at this time, she could not describe it, but was filled with joy, and spoke for the first time, "Where is the outside? It's nice here, you're warm, I like it here."
Some unfamiliar words came out of my mouth. I didn't quite understand the meaning of them. I just expressed my thoughts instinctively. The black air was very warm. I was very happy here. I just wanted to stay here.
"It's not all black outside, there are all kinds of colors, you'll like them."
Hei Qi spoke again, his voice was a little coaxing, and there was an emotion in it that he couldn't understand, "You are warm now, and you are warm even without me."
She touched her body and found that it was indeed warm, but although they were both warm, she always felt that the black air was warmer than herself. Obviously, what the other party said was right, but her body was filled with a strange emotion, which she couldn't describe. She just felt stuffy in her chest and couldn't breathe.
She liked her body. Not only did she have the five senses and could hear, see, and even touch, but more importantly, this body was given to her by another person. But now, the feeling in her body suddenly made her feel a little scared.
"Let's go see the skylight together, you and me, it's beautiful," her language ability was not yet perfect, and she could only instinctively piece together a few words to express her meaning. It had been a long time since she last saw the skylight, but the brightness of that moment made her unforgettable for a long time, and now she wanted to see it again with the other party.
Thinking of this, my chest didn't seem so stuffy anymore.
This time the other party did not answer immediately, and it took so long that her eyelids were already a little droopy. When she wanted to sleep a little longer, she felt a gentle hand on her head. "That might cause a big fuss."
