When holding this obsession spirit stone, Chen Ming was still somewhat relaxed because his goal had been achieved.
But suddenly he remembered something.
Just two hours ago, the metallic liquid that he had released in advance and followed Zuo Jing's spacecraft to the planet sensed the existence of something that could threaten An Wuping's prosthesis in the laboratory.
But since he fell from the sky, the sense of danger he had felt before has not reappeared.
Not until he came before the flesh-mountain-like beast of the mind.
Even after taking out the core of the mind beast and the spirit stone, there was still no sense of danger.
It was as if the sense of danger he had sensed before had nothing to do with the beast in his mind.
Or is it that his insect form's abilities have skyrocketed, so he can no longer sense danger from the Mind Beast that originally sensed danger?
Chen Ming felt that this should not be the case.
The ability of his An Wuping fake body is the same whether in normal state or insect form, so it is impossible to say that he has perceived it wrongly.
But the fact is that the mental beast he just faced could not pose any threat to him.
The nauseating feeling brought by the things on this mountain of meat did not bring him anything in practical terms.
Protected by the Whisper of Madness Spirit Stone, this impression belonging to another type of spirit stone could not pose any threat to him at all. This was determined at the earliest time.
What is the real threat? Chen Ming put away the spirit stone and glanced at the fleshy corpse that was gradually dissolving.
However, there was still no discovery, and the sense of danger that I had sensed before disappeared out of thin air.
Chen Ming didn't even notice when he disappeared.
It was obvious that his metal liquid had remained in the laboratory, although it did not directly enter the innermost part of the laboratory. But since he could sense the danger before, he should be able to sense the danger later.
But the sense of danger just disappeared, and the situation was very strange.
The more Chen Ming thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.
He was sure that it was definitely not the beast in his heart that posed a threat to him, but something else.
There must be something else in the lab.
But this thing did not appear at this moment.
Chen Ming took over all the monitoring systems that were still in operation in the laboratory through the metal liquid and did not find anything wrong.
The only place with movement was the laboratory and near the door at the deepest part of the laboratory. Some left-path elements, with the support of a psychic, worked hard to reclose the opened door and cleaned up all the flesh and blood tissue of the psychic beast that had spread out.
Zuo Jing finally discovered that something was wrong in the deepest part of the laboratory because of the noise of Chen Ming falling from the sky and his trajectory of rushing directly into the deepest part of the laboratory. There was no response.
So they really opened the door.
As a result, the psychic energy fluctuations of the psychic beast dissipated, and the originally motionless flesh and blood tissue covering the vicinity of the gate suddenly began to proliferate.
Although the flesh and blood tissue derived from the mind beast does not have the extremely disgusting spread ability like the dimensional infection and does not infect people into non-human monsters.
But the flesh and blood of the psychic beast and the psychic energy fluctuations it radiates are also aggressive.
Moreover, unlike dimensional infection, even if the core of a psychic beast is destroyed, the remaining derivative organizations of the psychic beast will still remain active for a period of time.
So even if Chen Ming had killed the source and taken away the source's obsession spirit stone.
There are still a large amount of active psychic fluctuations in the entire laboratory, and a large amount of deformed flesh and blood tissue is still alive.
As soon as the door is opened, these psychic energy fluctuations will act on the brains of those left-wing elements who are just ordinary people, attracting them to pounce on the flesh and blood tissues that have been twisted into a heart shape.
Anyone who is influenced by "Infatuation" and pounces on it will be eaten by these flesh and blood tissues to maintain the survival of their flesh and blood.
And those places that had not yet been eaten grew heart-shaped twisted and deformed tissues, which gradually merged with the other flesh and blood.
Of course, if the body was dragged away in advance, it should be able to preserve some human form.
And this is the source of the bodies that were dumped into the deep pit before.
The beast in the mind is easy to deal with within the safety measures in the laboratory, but it is not so easy to deal with if it leaks out.
With the support of a psychic, Zuo Jing could only barely close the gate and rest at the gate.
Speaking of which, the single-molecule-sized hole left by Chen Ming did not affect the leakage of the beast in the mind.
It was not Chen Ming who made up for it, but the property of the silent alloy film itself.
The silent alloy film is composed of multiple layers of silent alloy molecules stacked together.
There is a special link between different molecules, similar to the molecular bonds that maintain molecular structure, but larger.
And its nature is to block the penetration of psychic energy fluctuations, thus playing the role of isolating psychic energy fluctuations.
Judging from the material properties of the Silent Alloy itself, it is impossible to prevent the penetration of psychic energy fluctuations.
Therefore, this special link will still exist inside the molecular loophole left by Chen Ming, blocking the penetration of psychic energy fluctuations.
That's why when Chen Ming's metal liquid came in, the psychic beast's psychic energy fluctuations did not leak out.
So now Zuo Jing could only stand safely at the door after opening and closing the door.
When seeing this scene.
Chen Ming suddenly thought, since he couldn't find the source of the danger, why not just go out and deal with Zuo Jing first?
If Zuo Jing was gone, he could conduct a comprehensive investigation of the laboratory with complete peace of mind without having to worry about being disturbed.
Chen Ming thought about it and felt that there seemed to be nothing wrong with doing so, so he took a step toward the outside of the laboratory.
However, just before he took the second step.
He suddenly felt a chill.
Chen Ming immediately turned his head vigilantly. The chilling feeling had transformed into an extreme sense of danger in the process of turning his head, the kind of danger that could threaten An Wuping's prosthesis.
He felt a breath coming from inside the laboratory, a dangerous breath that was chaotic but not messy, and instead had a certain unique order.
Chen Ming looked precisely in the direction where the breath came from.
As his eyes moved, heavy and dense footsteps slowly sounded in that direction.
The sense of danger continued to grow even though it was enough to threaten An Wuping's survival. This huge sense of danger seemed like it could easily kill him.
It was even more terrifying than the sense of danger he had sensed before with the metal liquid.
Something is wrong.
The last time Chen Ming felt this level of danger was when the pirate space station was almost hit head-on by a tachyon spear.
Even a direct shot from the Tachyon Spear might not be able to kill An Wuping, so how could a product from Zuo Jing's laboratory do that? Chen Ming was a little bit unbelievable, but his danger perception ability had protected him many times, and he couldn't go against what his instinct told him.
And the situation is not necessarily the same as it once was.
For example, Chen Ming’s real body can actually be dealt with with just a pistol, but his real body’s combat ability is definitely not weak.
Therefore, it is very likely that this thing cannot kill An Wuping directly on a physical level, but can kill An Wuping in a clever way through other means. Just be on guard against this method.
However, in addition to the abnormality in his perception of danger, Chen Ming also felt that the size of the movement of that thing was not right.
The time when the Mind Beast Project went wrong was about the same time when the dimensional infection on the space station went wrong, and the spreading flesh and blood tissue did not have time to destroy the laboratory equipment.
Therefore, the number of damaged surveillance cameras in the laboratory was not large, and the same was true for the direction from which the noise came.
With such a heavy sound, the creature must be big and there is no way it could have avoided his surveillance.
Then why didn't he see it just now?
Chen Ming was just about to activate the surveillance to see what was going on when the heavy footsteps suddenly became rapid.
He made more frequent and heavier footsteps as if he was sprinting, like a beast that had discovered its prey, which made people wonder what was behind the sound.
Chen Ming was not affected by the urgent voice and immediately checked the surveillance video.
At the source of the sound at the corner some distance ahead, where there should have been something, there was nothing on the surveillance camera.
However, when Chen Ming really raised his head, the source of the dense and heavy footsteps came from the corner in front.
This is a creature... perhaps it can be called a living creature.
A columnar creature supported by the arms of countless people who had lost all their fingers and only had their palms left.
Above these hundreds of arms are also columnar bodies made up of layers of broken arm links, with blood and flesh stuck together, rolled up skin and broken bones everywhere.
The body was shaking and trembling constantly, spilling a large amount of blood visible to the naked eye.
And at the top is a head with two faces, front and back.
The front is a neutral smiling face with a charming feel.
On the back is an expressionless and cold face.
Both faces looked like those carved on totem poles.
But if it really is a totem pole, it would not be a big deal, because the two faces that Chen Ming saw now were mask faces forcibly created using flesh and blood, and human faces through the forced distortion method that Chen Ming had seen many times.
This situation is disgusting.
But it doesn’t matter what this thing looks like. Chen Ming has seen all kinds of ugly things more than once.
What’s important is the threat and sense of danger brought by this thing. It is exactly the existence that Chen Ming had previously perceived as posing a fatal threat to An Wuping.
Chen Ming already felt that something was wrong, and after seeing this thing with his own eyes, he felt that something was wrong even more.
It seems to be a product of a mixture of multiple psychic beings.
Although it is weird, there is an inexplicable harmony.
Chen Ming looked at the surveillance camera again.
Confirming the existence of this totem pole-like structure can indeed only be seen with the naked eye.
The blood dripping from its body also does not appear in the surveillance video and can only be seen with the naked eye.
The fact that the surveillance camera cannot be locked is enough to show that this is a troublesome thing.
Although it was dangerous, Chen Ming felt he had to give it a try.
He made a powerful move.
However, before he really rushed out, he suddenly stopped.
Drops of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
Just before he rushed out, his sense of danger reached its peak.
If he really rushed over, he would be dead.
If he fights this totem pole in close combat, something bad will definitely happen, so he must not get close to it.
Chen Ming casually pulled down a large piece of iron sheet from the wall next to him, twisted it into a javelin shape, secreted some keratin at the tip of the metal javelin, and threw it at the monster.
The javelin easily penetrated the body of the totem pole monster, and the entire javelin was directly nailed into the wall behind it and shattered under the huge impact force.
However, Chen Ming's face became even worse.
Because when the javelin penetrated the monster, it did not pierce it, but went straight through it without hitting it at all.
It seems to be a disembodied existence.
Chen Ming once again picked up a few throwing weapons and threw them at the totem pole. Just like the first one, all the weapons could not hit it effectively.
It seems that there is no way to stop it.
Even after Chen Ming's repeated javelins failed to hit it, the totem pole monster seemed to be enraged and rushed towards him with its lower limbs composed of a large number of broken arms.
Although the speed was not fast, the feeling of deadly danger getting closer and closer was real.
Chen Ming could no longer hold back and raised his hand, the plasma was about to be released at any time.
But he suddenly stopped what he was doing, changed direction, and turned around to run towards the outside of the laboratory.
If you are unsure of the enemy's capabilities, it is best not to use your trump card directly.
There happened to be some left-path elements taking a rest outside, and they could help test what capabilities this totem pole monster had.
Through surveillance, Chen Ming discovered that the psychic was not at the door connecting the deepest part of the laboratory to the outside world. It seemed that he had gone to get something.
Because the situation here in the laboratory was too crude, he was not prepared and it might take some time for him to get here.
That's perfect.
Chen Ming continued to run wildly inside the laboratory.
In just a dozen seconds, it rushed directly from the deepest part of the laboratory to the door leading to the outside of the laboratory, and crashed into the door with all its force, directly smashing it into pieces.
The broken metal and a large amount of flesh and blood tissue that had not yet completely dispersed spread to the periphery of the laboratory with Chen Ming's collision.
A large number of Zuo Jings were killed instantly, and the flesh and blood tissue of the mental beast that Zuo Jing had tried so hard to block was also brought out.
Behind Chen Ming, the totem pole that was not moving very fast just now strangely maintained an extremely high speed and was hanging not far behind Chen Ming.
You will soon be able to step out of the innermost area of the laboratory.
Chen Ming noticed that the flesh and blood of these mental beasts seemed to have nothing to do with this totem pole monster. They were simply stepping on the flesh and blood and did not interfere with each other.
He could clearly feel that this totem pole had psychic properties similar to fascination, but he didn't know what was going on.
Chen Ming did not dwell on this situation. He would only worry about it if he won the fight.
He ignored all the left-path molecules and continued to run out of the laboratory, looking like he didn't care about anything.
Some people on the left tried to stop him, but Chen Ming's power was beyond their ability to withstand.
Even if it was just a slight brush, Chen Ming could kill the person instantly like a train.
And in fact, more left paths have been attracted by the existence inside the laboratory.
They were bewitched by the flesh and blood of the beasts in their minds, and one by one they pounced on the flesh and blood that had just had a full meal.
However, just as these people approached the deepest part of the laboratory.
These people's arms suddenly and inexplicably broke.
The incision looked like it had been torn apart violently by something.
Chen Ming looked at the location of these people's wounds, the characteristics of these violently torn wounds and the direction of force, and came to a horrifying conclusion.
It was the arms of these people that did not pull themselves down.
The arms of the left-path molecule fell to the ground and crawled like maggots onto the body of the totem pole that was moving towards the gate, continuing to add bricks and tiles to the body of the arm link.
The consciousness of these left-wing elements who had lost their limbs suddenly became clear.
They were no longer bewitched by the flesh and blood of the beast in their mind and regained consciousness.
But after waking up, they saw the huge totem pole not far away, and their hands a little in front of them crawling forward.
This scene was even more terrifying for them.
It would be even worse to die in obsession.
At this moment, the left-wing molecule felt the double fear from the biological instinct of the creature and from the spiritual level.
No amount of brainwashing worked at this moment. The awakened left-wing elements tried desperately to escape, but the rest of their body tissues suddenly gained consciousness of their own.
As the left-path molecules' howling came to an abrupt halt, their bodies split and rotted, and they crawled towards the totem pole again and were sucked into the body.
The psychic from Zuojing finally hurried over.
When he saw the two faces on top of the totem pole, he was suddenly stunned, with a hint of panic on his expression.
"Faceless..."
Chen Ming heard him talking to himself.
This faceless person should not be the one who cannot see the face of the totem pole.
Instead, when he saw this face, he thought of the term "Faceless", which was probably the internal code name of Zuojing.
This totem pole monster is indeed closely related to Zuo Jing.
I just don't know what's going on with this monster.
Chen Mingming had clearly not seen any description of this monster in any document in the space station or underground laboratory.
But this thing just happened.
Moreover, Chen Ming feels that rather than saying that this thing is something developed by humans, it is better to say that it is actually natural.
It is something that grows naturally without being affected by any human power.
Although it is formed by various human tissues, Chen Ming had this feeling when he looked at it.
And there is also a familiar feeling.
Chen Ming had already hidden in the corner at this time, leaving the scene to the Zuo Jing elements to deal with.
At the same time, he was trying hard to think about what it was that was so familiar to him.
If he had any impression of such a dangerous thing, he would not forget it. He must remember it.
Just as Chen Ming was thinking.
The psychic from the left path suddenly turned around and ran back the way he came.
After seeing that face and the door that was completely damaged and beyond repair, he gave up the left path to rescue the laboratory.
He wants to run away.
Although Chen Ming was thinking about something, he couldn't just let him run away.
He brought the totem pole here specifically to let the psychic from Zuojing help test what abilities this monster has, so that the next battle will be easier for him.
How could they just let him get away like that? Chen Ming, who was even closer to the periphery of the laboratory than the left-handed psychic, directly created a small amount of plasma around him and threw it everywhere in the laboratory, destroying a large number of the laboratory's load-bearing structures.
In front of this left-path psychic's escape, ruins were created that completely blocked the passage.
When Zuo Jing psychic saw this scene, his eyes were bloodshot and the psychic energy fluctuations in his body were aroused.
A turbulent magnetic force pulled at the damaged laboratory structure, forcibly tearing open a passage that was barely wide enough for a person to pass through from the collapsed passage.
This psychic's ability is to control electromagnetic forces.
Chen Ming had already discovered it when he was dealing with the flesh and blood of the mental beast at the door just now.
It just so happened that there were a lot of metal structures in the laboratory, which was indeed a good place for him to give full play to his abilities.
But it was too late.
Chen Ming destroyed more than one laboratory structure.
He simply didn't have the ability to clean up in such a short time.
And he didn't have time.
The left-path molecules behind him, who were also trapped in the depths of the laboratory by the ruins, were all wiped out in just a few minutes.
It is simply impossible to survive under the combined influence of these two vicious psychic creatures: the Mind Beast Flesh and the Totem Pole.
And Chen Ming was constantly destroying the structure of the laboratory in front, so it was impossible for him to escape.
All he could do next was to face the totem pole monster head-on.
The left-hand psychic turned his head and saw the totem pole monster that was almost in front of him.
He roared at the top of his lungs, and after being pushed to the extreme, he exploded to the extreme.
There was a flash of tangible electric light on his body. With the help of magnetic force, he drove a large number of weapons made of messy metal. Under the action of electromagnetic force, he burst out at an extremely fast speed and rushed towards the totem pole.
Then, it disappeared.
He swung a massive metal weapon at the totem pole, but the weapon went straight through the body of the totem pole.
But when he got close, he was swallowed by the totem pole.
After a brief silence, Chen Ming saw that the two faces on the top of the totem pole were suddenly torn and pulled to the side, leaving an empty space.
It began to pull at the flesh and blood tissue, forming the appearance of the left-path psychic who had just been devoured.
Suddenly, a flash of lightning appeared on the entire totem pole.
The psychic fluctuations of the psychic who just died are strengthening it.
