Chapter 14 I lied to myself!

"Ms. Milani, I want to tell you something."

"Last words?"

Melanie made a joke that wasn't funny.

As she spoke, she set the last magic stone into the groove of the stone slab.

With a violent vibration, the magic matrix carved on the stone slab slowly lit up, and all the nodes were connected in an instant.

The mind's eye carved in the center of the magic matrix became increasingly realistic and terrifying.

It was as if there really was some powerful and mysterious being, peering into his mind through the stone slab.

Seeing this, Lin En changed his tone to an anxious one and immediately said, "Oxygen is poisonous. If we don't leave here, we will die soon!"

"Let's save the jokes for later."

Melanie giggled a few times and seemed to find it very amusing.

It doesn’t work.

Lin En understood.

It is impossible for oxygen to be toxic.

It would be better to say the opposite: without oxygen, people will definitely die.

For human beings, this is common sense and law like an iron law, which cannot be easily changed.

The Lie Eater is currently only at the first level and cannot achieve the effect of distorting common sense.

So the lie was exposed instantly as soon as it was spoken.

But Lin En was not discouraged. After thinking for a moment, he continued, "The room is really too hot."

In fact, since this place is located underground in the manor, it is damp all year round and never sees the sun.

Even if it's not cold, it won't be too hot either.

So, this is a lie.

After hearing what Lynn said, Melanie stopped what she was doing and seemed to be lost in thought.

After a moment, she nodded hesitantly and tugged at the collar of her white coat, trying to let some air in: "It seems a little wrong, but it's not that hot, and you don't have any clothes on, so don't make excuses."

The lie was exposed again.

But it's different from last time.

Lynn clearly discovered that this lie only briefly gained Melanie's trust.

Because the feeling of heat is different from iron laws and common sense. It is an extremely subjective idea that can change anytime and anywhere.

Some people feel cold hands and feet even in the hottest days of summer, while others can play around in T-shirts even in the coldest days of winter.

After this attempt, Lin En felt that he had figured out how to use the Liar Eater.

At the same time, a flash of inspiration came into my mind.

He decided to take back his previous assessment of this ability.

Rather, if used properly, he could definitely escape this experiment safely.

However, one more try is needed.

"This experiment is a 100% failure."

"No matter how discouraging you say, you will succeed."

"Ms. Milani, you are in love with me."

"I deeply love every experimental subject - provided that you survive."

"Ms. Milani, I'm actually very ugly."

"Um."

"Hey, don't believe this!"

A few minutes later, Melanie finished all preparations before the experiment.

"You seemed to be talking a lot just now." She looked at Lin En thoughtfully, "Are you trying something?"

"But unfortunately, this is the deepest part of the 'cellar', which is 100 meters below the ground. There are more than a dozen floors above. Even if you find a chance to escape from here, you will still be caught by the patrol."

"Let's give up those unnecessary thoughts for now. But then again, letting the test subject have a resistance mentality seems to affect the results."

Milani sighed and said, "I'm telling you the truth. Her Highness Ivester's order is to conduct the experiment without harming your life. Even if it fails in the end, you won't die."

Lin En's eyes lit up: "Oh?"

"At most, he will fall into a vegetative state and never wake up again."

Melanie said calmly.

It’s even more terrifying!

Lynn complained in his heart.

However, he did not show it on the surface. Instead, he took on a look of resignation.

"Since you've said so, I can only cooperate. But by the way, before the experiment begins, can you agree to one last condition of mine?"

"In principle, it's not possible." Melanie scratched her messy short hair. "Her Royal Highness said that after you wake up, it's best not to communicate with you at all."

"But you were not very enthusiastic about what you said just now?"

"After all, I don't have any principles."

Hearing this, Melanie shrugged.

But because the clothes were too big, part of the fabric on the shoulders slipped down, revealing a piece of snow-white skin.

She pulled her clothes back on as if she hadn't seen it, and then asked, "So, what is your final condition?"

"Please give me a mirror."

Melanie thought for a moment, turned around and rummaged through the sundries on the table. She took out a palm-sized dressing mirror from somewhere and displayed it in front of Lynn.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

"Yes, I'll give it to you." Melanie recalled his previous words and couldn't help but stroke her forehead, "You are really narcissistic."

"I can't help it. My ancestors gave me food to eat."

Lynn said casually.

Then he raised his head and looked at the mirror that Melanie was holding in front of her.

The boy in the mirror was handsome, with a noble temperament and bright blue eyes.

However, Lin En did not ask for the mirror just to admire her own beauty for the last time before the experiment.

His purpose is actually very simple.

Looking at the other self in the mirror, Lin En took a deep breath and activated the ability of the Liar Eater again.

At the same time, he muttered to himself in his heart.

I'm going to lie to myself!

Melanie was ready to sound the alarm.

Because in this situation, his behavior of asking her for a mirror so calmly was simply too weird.

Combined with the previous strange questions, Melanie had to suspect something.

Although the other party is just an ordinary person, he is the guy that Her Royal Highness the Princess has specially instructed.

It was just out of professional curiosity that she wanted to see what Lynn was trying to do.

In the end, he just looked in the mirror briefly, as if to reminisce about his appearance, and then sighed and said, "Please start."

Hearing this, although Melanie was confused, she still nodded.

No matter what, experiment is still important.

Thinking of this, she, as an experimental enthusiast, quickly put her confusion behind her.

Melanie walked over to the stone slab and checked the integrity of the magic matrix and the connecting helmet part for the last time.

Then, she and Lin En looked at each other, grabbed a handful of silver-white powder from a jar next to her, and sprinkled it on the magic matrix and the sculpture of the mind's eye in the center.

"flood--"

Along with the flash of silver flame, a light far more dazzling than before filled the entire underground laboratory like a little sun!

Melanie squinted her eyes, put her palms on her forehead, and stared at the figure in the center of the light.

The powerful energy poured into the helmet as if it were real, transforming into whispers and suggestions, constantly echoing in the ears.

This power is like a baptism of the soul, and under repeated tidal washes, it is enough to imprint the switch of hypnosis into the ocean of his personality!

After a very long time, the light on the stone slab gradually dimmed.

Melanie's heartbeat quickened slightly.

Every time the experimental results were announced, she would have this heart-pounding feeling.

After the magic matrix on the stone slab had completely calmed down and all the instruments had stopped humming, she quickly walked towards the young man in the chair.

"how are you feeling?"

“I feel terrible.”

The other party spoke slowly.

Melanie held up his head and looked up.

The young man's originally bright blue eyes became dull and lifeless since some time ago.

Like a robot that only knows how to follow orders.

Could it be that the experiment was successful? !
