Chapter 62: Perfect New World (Thirty-Two)
Nan Huan opened his closed eyes again.
The infected body in front of him revealed completely clear eyes as the system broadcast the news.
Before I could express my surprise at her appearance, I felt something strange happening in my body.
And the colorful halos hidden in their bodies seemed to finally sense the presence of their masters and began to move.
It precipitates little by little from the body of the infected person.
Because the villa was extremely humid, colorful colors formed light bands on the ceiling and the ground, like the distant aurora, gorgeous and colorful.
In the end, all the light seemed to feel some kind of attraction and gathered in Nan Huan's body.
She felt as if something was different inside her body, but she couldn't feel what it was specifically.
As the last rays of light disappeared from Nan Huan's body, there was a sudden clang and the entire villa began to shake.
Nan Huan distinguished it carefully and found that the sound did not sound like a bell, but it was very distant and long.
Although there is only one sound, the lingering sound is particularly long.
It goes straight to the heart of people's hearts, making their minds go blank, standing there in a daze, and forgetting what the current situation is.
As the vibrations became stronger and stronger, Bei Xi was the first to react.
She discovered that the source of the vibration was not from under her feet, but from above.
It seemed that the tumors covering the top of the villa seemed to have heard some call and turned into black liquid, flowing down from the top.
After touching the ground, they gathered into a monster and pounced towards everyone with bared fangs and claws.
Bei Xi was quick-witted and quick-handed. Before anyone could react, she had already hugged Nan Huan's waist, tapped the wall with her toes, dodged a wave of attacks, and retreated several steps.
Perhaps the power of the sound attack just now had faded, and Nan Huan finally woke up after being tormented like this.
More and more monsters emerged from a pool of black water on the ground.
The infected bodies gradually woke up and joined the battle.
The corridor was not very large, and there were some of Bei Xi's own people mixed in it, so it was not easy for Bei Xi to use a bow and arrow to blow up the place. Therefore, the arrows he shot this time did not cause a large-scale explosion. It was just a one-shot kill, quickly resolving the issue.
Now that the infected has been rescued, Bei Xi is not keen on fighting, nor does he like to consume too much energy before a real war.
So I planned to take Nanhuan and continue to the fifth floor.
However, the monsters above their heads kept rising from the black water. Although they were no match for them for the time being, they could not withstand their large numbers.
Bei Xi and the others didn't gain any advantage for the time being.
Whether it is the gift skill of "Blood Silk" or the werewolf's attack, they are still in cooling time and Nan Huan cannot use them.
In order not to cause trouble to Bei Xi, she did not use those offensive props.
But more and more monsters fell in front of him. Although Bei Xi was not injured, his perfection value had dropped due to the close contact, and even his breathing became heavy.
Nan Huan knew that if they continued like this, they would just be stuck on the fourth floor and wouldn't be able to go anywhere.
Just now Twelve said in the communicator that Mu Xin and the others were already heading here, and if we delay any further, things might be bad.
Nan Huan had no choice but to take out a bottle of perfect spray and give it to Bei Xi, while he quickly thought of a solution.
In the chaos, Nan Huan held Bei Xi's shoulders, and then she felt as if something was flowing in her body.
She closed her eyes and sensed it according to her consciousness, and found a colorful halo flowing in her body.
Following the direction of his sensing, it moved to Bei Xi, and the black air surrounding her due to the infection was completely devoured by the colorful halo.
What happened just now was a little sudden, and she didn't have time to think about it.
Now seeing this situation, I seem to understand something.
The exploration degree of her hidden identity has reached 100%, which means that she is now No. 31, and No. 31 has the ability to purify pollution.
Nan Huan tried to use the energy stored in his body. He closed his eyes and used the halo in his body to devour the black air in front of him.
Bei Xi originally felt physically exhausted due to the pollution and a drop in his perfection value.
But suddenly I felt a warm current flowing into my body, my fatigue was relieved, and the perfect value returned to its previous state.
Before she could figure out what was happening, she saw a colorful halo emanating from Nan Huan's body and flying towards the attacking monster in front of her.
The strange thing is that the halo looked soft and had no power, but after encountering the monster, the black energy on the opponent's body was completely swallowed up.
The circle of halo grew bigger and bigger, like a snowball, as if after the pollutants were absorbed by it, they were purified and turned into its own power.
Those monsters seemed to be forcibly stripped of the black coats they were wearing, revealing their original normal appearance.
One by one, they emerged from the polluted state, standing there confused and helpless, not knowing what had happened.
Although Bei Xi had seen No. 31's ability when his consciousness was wandering just now, the other party's ability was limited at that time and he failed to purify all the pollution and disappeared strangely.
And now Nanhuan seems to be the one who truly masters the purification ability.
The colorful halo, like a light gate, spreads from one end to the other with the height and range of the corridor.
Wherever they go, the monsters are reborn. Inside and outside the door are two completely different scenes.
Just when the light gate was about to reach the end of the corridor and Nan Huan wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, something unexpected happened.
The long, deep clanging sound from before began to ring again.
The monsters at the end of the corridor that had not been purified yet seemed to be summoned again and ran away in panic along the way they came.
However, this time the clanging sound no longer ended as quickly as before, but instead tended to become more and more intense.
Nan Huan finally figured out that this was not the sound of a bell, nor an alarm, but the sound of a ringing bell.
There is a sound first, followed by a series of clattering sounds.
At first there was only the sound of a bell, but as the ceiling began to vibrate again, the sound of the bell gradually increased.
It's like a hundred kittens with bells on them, wagging their tails at the same time.
One sound may sound lovely, but when thousands of bells are put together, it becomes piercing.
Everyone was so persecuted by the sound that they covered their ears, but even so, they still couldn't stop the harm of the sound.
Soon Bei Xi saw dense black spider patterns appearing on the ceiling of the fourth floor.
At the same time, heavier water vapor was diffusing down from above.
Bei Xi recognized the floral scent hidden in the water vapor, and the scent was getting stronger as the cracks opened.
Soon large chunks of gravel began to fall, and the entire fourth floor looked like it was about to collapse.
Bei Xi had no choice but to hug Nan Huan and run to the fifth floor.
Mu Xin, who had just entered the villa, naturally felt the vibration and quickened his pace.
No. 30 and No. 12 had just gathered with Hongfen and the others. They had finally escaped the monster's attack and hurried over to the villa.
No. 30 had said before that the fifth floor was where the dean lived and he couldn't get in.
So Bei Xi and Nan Huan naturally thought that they couldn't just enter this place whenever they wanted. There must be some rules, or if they forced their way in, it would definitely trigger something.
So even though they were in a panic, they were still very cautious.
But unexpectedly, they went up very smoothly.
There were no heavy guards, no death rules triggered, and there wasn't even a gate.
After going up the narrow corridor, the fifth floor appeared in front of us.
The view here is very open because there are no enclosed rooms.
There was a giant aquarium in the entire hall, and a white object like a jellyfish was floating in the aquarium.
In the dark blue liquid, its body glowed.
Transparent tentacles, dragging long tails, swayed back and forth in the liquid.
As soon as Nan Huan and Bei Xi appeared, it seemed to have sensed something and wanted to get closer to them.
But after moving a little, it did not get closer as it wished, as if something on the very end of the tentacle restricted its movement.
Nan Huan noticed that there was a water inlet system at the top of the aquarium, and a water outlet at the lower right corner.
As it swayed slightly, the liquid in the aquarium seemed to become a little bluer.
The water outlet seemed to be able to adjust automatically according to the concentration, and the rectangular water tank below was almost filled with water.
That color is very similar to the color of the perfect spray that Nan Huan is holding in his arms.
Although Nanhuan's thoughts were a little divergent, after noticing the situations inside the aquarium.
She still unconsciously shifted her gaze to the person who was standing in front of the aquarium, staring at her and Bei Xi.
To be precise, that person's eyes were always on him.
Ever since she appeared on the fifth floor, the other party's eyes have never left her, or rather, the other party seemed to have anticipated her coming, so he had been waiting here.
He was wearing a black suit with the buttons of his collar buttoned up, his black hair was combed up, and his back was no longer hunched.
The wrinkles on his face also disappeared, and his facial features were almost the same as those in his old age.
Nan Huan really couldn't recognize that the person standing in front of him was the dean.
"I knew you would show up again."
The dean spoke first, and because he, like the other bionic people, had a somewhat weird smile on his face, it was difficult for Nan Huan to discern his true expression when he said this.
I don’t know if he is really sure or just being polite.
Although his voice became younger along with his face, the aging tone in his voice could not be hidden.
"For so many years I have been thinking, if I had discovered earlier that you have the ability to purify pollution, perhaps all this would not exist, right?"
The dean didn't care about Nan Huan and Bei Xi's defenses against him, nor was he worried that the two would pose a threat to him. Instead, he took two steps towards them nonchalantly.
But Nan Huan did not hear any regret or loss in his words. Instead, he heard a hint of relief.
"So you created the source of the pollution yourself?"
Seeing that the other party had no intention of taking action, Nan Huan asked again.
Although the fact that the dean was the source of the pollution was already a foregone conclusion, Nan Huan still wanted to find out the truth about what happened so many years ago.
Bei Xi didn't care about these details, she was just a little puzzled.
The dean clearly knew that Nan Huan had the ability to purify, so why was he so bold to approach them?
Compared with the opponent's approach, Bei Xi simply circled Nan Huan into his own safe range while observing the surrounding environment.
The dean didn't seem to expect Nan Huan to be able to guess this. A hint of admiration flashed in his eyes. He then tilted his head, as if he was thinking about it. After a while, he gave an uncertain answer, "At first, it seemed that it was just to live longer. Although there was nothing wrong with my body, it had already begun to weaken."
No one asked him how everything happened back then. At the beginning, no one knew.
Later, it was he who turned everyone else into these bionic people who had no emotions and only obeyed orders.
He had no interest in sharing his own mental journey with these bionic people, so when faced with questions like Nan Huan's, he was obviously more curious and answered very seriously.
"Do you know what aging means to a researcher?"
Well, in such a high-tech society, humans are still pursuing immortality.
I don’t know if this is some kind of irony deliberately designed by the game, or if this is really the bad nature that remains in human bones.
She interacted with him nonchalantly, with a lack of interest on her face. "It means you will feel it's a pity. You will feel that if God gives you a few more years, you will definitely create more things for this world."
Nan Huan’s health had always been poor, but to put it nicely, he had good luck and did not disappear from this world immediately.
To put it bluntly, I don’t know if it will disappear when I wake up tomorrow.
She could only guess what the dean might be thinking as he got older, but she didn't understand and didn't want to try to understand.
This was the second time the dean was surprised by Nan Huan’s words tonight.
"You saw, I did it."
His tone was full of pride. "Over the years, Perfect Company has created a new world. The humans here will not go to war or overthrow long-established regimes. They have perfect brains that can take care of both physical and mental labor, and they won't even get sick..."
"They don't laugh or cry. You just controlled a world of people with pollution. They are just following your instructions and playing house with you."
Nan Huan refuted the other party's opinion without waiting for him to finish speaking.
"Has anyone ever asked you the question I asked you just now? Have you ever told anyone else the question you told me?"
These two sentences seem to be questions, but in fact they are self-affirmation.
Human nature is greedy.
Initially, the dean was just doing experiments in order to prolong his own life, and this pollution occurred.
But he discovered that this pollution not only failed to bring him the longevity he wanted, but instead harmed his body.
He wanted to spread the pollution and find a corresponding solution through the reactions of other infected sources after they were alienated.
After accidentally meeting No. 32, he wanted to use these to create a strange new world and become the master of this world himself.
How ridiculous?
The dean did not speak again. He just stood there and looked at Nan Huan. "I really intended to keep you and share this new world with you. After all, with you, we might be able to go further."
"But now it seems that you have really failed to live up to your abilities."
When the dean spoke again, his tone had become extremely gloomy.
He tapped his toes lightly, and the bell sound that had just disappeared reappeared.
As he finished speaking, many small black spots appeared on the wall of the fifth floor.
The black spots continued to expand, and the black liquid gradually occupied the entire wall.
Monsters emerged from the wall one after another, and the sound of the bells gradually intensified.
Nan Huan noticed that the monsters looked no different from the previous ones, but they had a copper bell on their wrists, ankles, or waists.
It is only the size of a thumb, but its sound is very penetrating.
Nan Huan had a bad feeling.
The dean on the side, however, retreated to the front of the aquarium, looking leisurely, not worried about Nan Huan's ability at all.
The infected bodies did not act rashly this time. After all, they had just witnessed the power of Nanhuan.
Their thankless method was obviously not as effective as Nan Huan's gentle movements.
And just now when they were downstairs, they watched with their own eyes as those monsters were able to return to normal humans after taking off their black coats.
Now that normal humans have mixed into their crowd, how can they kill these monsters again?
Nan Huan did not hesitate. Recalling what he had just done, he summoned the colorful halo door from his body again.
Send it to the enemy camp.
But this time the halo gate did not work like before. When it fell on the monster, it did not produce the same purifying effect as before.
The black energy from the monster was blocked by the bells on their bodies.
There seemed to be a natural barrier between the colorful halo and the black air. The former could not absorb the latter at all, let alone purify it.
The crowd didn't even have time to express their surprise at this phenomenon because the monster was already very close.
To make matters worse, Mu Xin and his team finally arrived on the fifth floor.
People in one camp were a little surprised by the scene before them. After all, in the world line they knew, they had not yet figured out what was going on.
But Mu Xin didn't care about these at all. In his eyes, there were only Bei Xi and Nan Huan.
Bei Xi had already shot out the arrow first. At this time, he didn't care whether it would explode or not. After a few arrows, a large number of monsters were knocked down.
It can be seen that this bell cannot resist physical damage, it is just to prevent being purified by Nanhuan.
"How is it? Can I activate the skill now?"
Mu Xin looked in Bei Xi's direction and said, "Let's start with the first president."
Although Liu Bai had used his skills on others before, this was his first time facing someone as important as the president, so he was inevitably a little nervous. "It's best to get closer to ensure that nothing goes wrong."
He clenched his trembling fingers, very cautiously.
Mu Xin knew that if he didn't kill someone like the president with one strike, he would become wary and it would be difficult to strike again.
So he agreed with Liu Bai's words. He used the positioning function of his scalpel, grabbed Liu Bai's collar with one hand, and led him across the numerous monsters, approaching Bei Xi.
Bei Xi soon discovered that Mu Xin and Liu Bai appeared nearby, but she was a little puzzled. It seemed that the other party did not want to attack her directly, but just wanted to find a suitable distance.
Although she had no impression of the person next to Mu Xin, she knew that she couldn't be careless at this time.
She was about to shoot an arrow towards the two of them, but she saw the person next to Mu Xin seemed to recite something silently, and then the mechanical crossbow in her hand disappeared out of thin air.
