Although Gu Mingyue doesn't like smoking, she didn't refuse their kindness and accepted them all, stuffing them into the RV.
As she got into the car, she saw through the interior mirror that some of these lovely people were secretly wiping away tears behind her back.
Some stood there forlornly, looking towards the spot where their comrades had just left.
Jiang Shenglin was reporting the situation that had just occurred here to his superiors via satellite phone, his brows furrowing frequently as his expression grew increasingly serious.
Xu Lanyue squatted on the ground, smoking one cigarette after another.
These people are much less motivated than when she first arrived.
After tallying the number of people and their distance from the mental manipulation, Jiang Shenglin ordered the soldiers to retreat another five meters away from the dark area.
"You should leave quickly, it's not safe here," Jiang Shenglin said when he saw that Gu Mingyue hadn't gotten into the car yet.
Although Xu Lanyue has a tough personality, she also has a sensitive side: "Little sister Gu, do you not know how to drive?"
“Miss Gu doesn’t know how to drive? Then I’ll drive it back for you!” Li Hao said, stepping forward.
"Dream on! You've never driven such an expensive RV in your life. You just want a free test drive, don't you!"
“Miss Gu, let me drive it out for you. I have ten years of driving experience. I can drive freely in deserts and Gobi, and I can park steadily on the edge of a cliff without ever going over the edge by even a fraction of an inch.”
Everyone started chattering and volunteering.
"Hahahaha! A bunch of cowards!"
The emotions that had just calmed down were disrupted again by the monsters in the dark domain, and everyone immediately fell silent and stopped arguing.
"You're scared, aren't you? You don't dare come in!"
"How can you be so spineless!"
"Humans are indeed cowardly and selfish creatures. With just a little mental manipulation, they were so frightened that they dared not speak! Nor did they dare to come in and avenge their companions."
"Damn it! This is a piece of crap!" Li Hao cursed angrily.
Gu Mingyue jumped off the RV.
When Jiang Shenglin saw her come down and head towards the Black Domain, he thought she had been tricked again and quickly grabbed her.
"I'm fine, you don't need to hold me back." Gu Mingyue pushed his hand away and continued walking towards the edge of the dark area, only stopping when she reached a safe distance.
She shouted at the monsters in the Dark Realm, "Monsters inside, do you want me to enter the Dark Realm?"
The unknown monster in the dark realm clearly hadn't expected anyone to ask it.
After a moment of blankness, he burst into wild laughter: "Of course! Come in, join us! Humans are just fragile waste that are about to be eliminated. We are the future rulers of the blue planet."
Everyone else looked at Gu Mingyue, wondering why she was talking to the monsters in the Dark Domain.
Jiang Shenglin frowned and said, "Miss Gu, our superiors have ordered us not to communicate with the monsters in the Black Domain. Please cooperate."
“Miss Gu, the captain is right. These monsters are very good at bewitching people. You'd better not talk to them.”
"Yes, Miss Gu, you'd better leave quickly, lest you provoke that monster again and unleash another mental attack."
Gu Mingyue turned to look at them.
"You've never spoken to them, so how can you understand their habits and characteristics? Are you just guarding this place for the sake of defense, or are you preparing to defeat them later?"
"If we don't learn about them now, are we going to wait until the energy in the Dark Domain accumulates to level ten and bursts open like amniotic fluid?"
"Wait until the monsters inside have emerged from their cocoons and attacked humans before engaging in in-depth communication with them to investigate their backgrounds?"
Each question struck a chord with them.
The group scratched their heads, clearly having never considered such a question; the monsters inside were unknown, and their abilities were terrifying.
They guard this place every day, and just listening to the various screams and cries of pain that sound like humans coming from the monsters inside already puts them under immense mental stress.
Then they have to stay at their posts, preventing citizens from secretly trying to sneak into the Black Zone to rescue their loved ones, and every day they have to outwit and outmaneuver reporters who try to infiltrate and report the truth.
Where would they find the energy to negotiate with the monsters inside? The higher-ups have prophets, and not long ago there was even a live stream of a black-clad thief showing how the post-apocalyptic monsters feared the meteor sword.
Just then, Xu Lanyue stepped forward and walked to Gu Mingyue's side.
“Sister Gu, I support you. The higher-ups ordered us not to communicate with the monsters, but they didn’t say that others couldn’t communicate with them.”
When they were being mentally manipulated by the monster, Gu Mingyue was the first to regain consciousness and then the one who brought them back to their senses.
Even when Xiao Zhou entered the Black Domain, she was the first to cut off his leg and discover that he had been assimilated.
He handled the situation with extreme composure, even more so than the well-trained group of people.
As if he were extremely familiar with the Black Domain, there was no fear or timidity on his face.
She believed Gu Mingyue's decision!
“Captain Jiang, if you’re afraid that my actions will undermine your superiors’ decision, then I can leave.” Gu Mingyue looked at him with neither humility nor arrogance.
Gu Mingyue turned around and planned to go back, but communicating with the monsters in the Black Domain was not a decision she made on a whim.
In her previous life, she relied on her mental abilities to enter and exit only one dark domain, where she obtained a metal-type essence.
My knowledge of the Black Domain and the monsters within it is extremely limited.
The Black Rain hasn't arrived yet, and no other monsters have started to appear outside the Black Domain. What a great opportunity to learn about the habits of the monsters in the Black Domain!
A crack appeared on Jiang Shenglin's stern face, and he finally turned and left.
A default state.
At this moment, the monsters in the Dark Domain began to deceive people again, relying on their remaining human memories from before the transformation.
"Ahhh, help! I've been bitten by a monster and can't get out, but my child is still alive! Please come in and help me get my child out!"
Seeing that no one paid any attention to it, the monster inside laughed angrily again.
"Hahaha, cowards, you can't beat us! Come on in and join us!"
"You won't succeed in luring humans like this," Gu Mingyue shouted into the megaphone.
"I'll teach you how to attract more humans to join you. First, call me 'Mom'!"
Dark Realm Monster: "..."
People outside the Black Domain: "..."
Could the monster inside really believe such a simple trick?
"It seems that you self-proclaimed evolved beings are not very capable, you can't even call someone 'Mom'."
"You think you can get kills out of nowhere without putting in any effort? Tsk tsk tsk! I guess I thought you were too smart. Turns out you're nothing special!"
Thinking back to the moment when she was almost controlled by this monster, Gu Mingyue drew out her mocking tone!
The others, having been bullied by the monster for so many days, didn't want to keep holding back their anger any longer and chimed in, "Hahaha, this monster has some shame too! It's scared and doesn't dare to scream!"
The monster from the Black Domain swayed its bloated body back and forth, its mind filled only with memories of the day it was transformed into a human.
These tactics used to lure humans into joining them were passed down to them by the underworld bosses who lived deep within the source of the dark domain.
