Chapter 129 It’s My Turn
It was the first time that Lilith heard the captain's tone so serious. She was not one to show off, so she naturally agreed.
"Okay, I understand."
Hearing her answer, Robbins breathed a sigh of relief. A powerful guide was much more important than sentinels like them.
The team continued to march forward. Lilith focused and carefully sorted out her mental strength while adjusting her sitting posture to better face the sudden danger.
The unknown is always more frightening, especially since this place has already swallowed up at least fifty sentinels. No one knows whether they or their companions will lose control in the next second.
The detector was still beeping, but the sound seemed to be a little faster. Lilith secretly raised her vigilance.
Her fragile body probably can't withstand a punch of pollutants, so she must protect herself.
The syringe appeared silently in her hand, and the needle pierced the soft flesh on her arm, bringing a clear and slight pain.
The spirit body is like a watered seedling, vigorously trying to struggle out of the body.
Of course, Lilith did not stop them. She stuck a flower on the back of each sentinel, which allowed her to sense the sentinel's presence even in the thick fog.
The most important thing is that she can use this "mark" to send herself to the sentry who is most likely to survive when danger comes.
The contaminated area was so dark that it was almost pitch dark. The sound of the detector became more and more urgent. Lilith could even feel the brown bear beneath her becoming agitated, as if it had realized the danger.
"Come closer to me!"
Robbins whispered something, and the other eleven people moved closer to him. Jayne cautiously released his spirit body, and after circling a small circle, he shook his head in disappointment.
"No, we can't see anything. The fog is too thick. I think we'd better go back and request more sentries to join the exploration team."
"If it's just a normal danger, we can resist it with our strength. If it's extremely dangerous, then no matter how many sentries we send, they will only die, Lanqi."
Lilith watched the two people arguing, her fingertips quietly touching the brown bear's thick fur. She felt that the speed of the detector's beeping was almost as fast as her heartbeat.
No, it was probably because her heartbeat was about to coincide with the heartbeat of the detector. The closer it got to the center, the more nervous she became.
It seemed as if something dangerous was about to break out of its shell, and the arrival of the exploration team was to provide it with nutrients.
"Quiet……"
Lilith's voice was a little hoarse. At first, no one noticed that she was talking. However, Shen Jiaxu, who had been watching her, frowned and noticed something was wrong.
"Captain, something's happening!"
The scene was quiet for a moment, and Lilith spoke in this silence.
"Look at the fog."
The green fog had turned into a dark red color at some point. The original visibility was about half a meter, but now, one could only see the eyes of the others.
And they hadn't even noticed before, what would have happened if they had been a little later, and the thick fog had completely covered all vision during the quarrel?
Lilith didn't dare to think too much. She took a deep breath and looked at Robbins who had calmed down.
The other party's eyes were calm, and even in the face of such a situation, he just frowned.
"The fog's influence on people's minds has become stronger, and it's even trying to sow discord between us. This is happening faster than I expected. I thought we had to advance at least 300 meters before this situation would occur."
Robbins' goal today was to advance another 500 meters into the contaminated area, but now abnormalities have appeared after only 200 meters. Should he go back or continue?
Everyone was waiting for his answer, including Lilith. The difference was that she felt she could continue. There was danger, as long as she got close to the contaminated area, there would be danger. But she wanted to become stronger and find out what secrets she was hiding.
In just a few seconds, Robbins had made his decision.
"R, could you please plant a temporary mark for us?"
The fog in the polluted area is too severe, and they may lose each other's coordinates. If they leave marks, at least in the spiritual world, they can sense each other.
coordinate?
Lilith restrained her urge to look back at Shen Jiaxu. She nodded and signaled the brown bear to put her down.
But the other party only half squatted down, still allowing her to look down at all the sentries.
"Let's start with you, Captain. Please relax your mind and don't reject me."
Temporary marking should have been done in a safe place. This slightly more intimate act than superficial treatment would bring unimaginable pleasure to the sentinel.
But in the dangerous contaminated area, they were always on edge, but were also required to accept the spiritual invasion of the guide. The physical and mental instincts were in conflict with each other, which was not an easy task.
Lilith lowered her eyes slightly, looking at the captain of the exploration team, who had exposed his neck in front of her. The blue veins were clearly visible. When her fingertips touched it, the muscles under her hands restrainedly contracted for a moment, then slowly relaxed.
Temporary marking requires the guide's spirit to be left in the sentinel's body. The area below the left collarbone is the closest to the heart and safe enough, so it became Lilith's best choice.
She saw a confused expression on Robbins' face. He opened his mouth slightly uncontrollably, but then immediately closed it, as if he realized that he was inevitably making an ugly scene in front of a guide.
A small light appeared in Lilith's spiritual sea. The light was in the shape of a brown bear, crouching on the spot like a piece of wood, hugging its own body.
In this way, the temporary mark is completed. The sentinels can sense her position, and she can sense theirs. It is equivalent to her being the origin of the coordinates and the center of all spiritual bodies.
"Phew~Thank you."
Robbins took a step back, not daring to look at the girl sitting on his spirit body. After the temporary mark, the sentinel would have a strong possessiveness and dependence on the guide. Only by not looking at her could he barely restrain the surging desire.
Time passed by minute by minute, and Lilith quickly and carefully left her temporary mark on each sentry.
Whether he was willing or not, Shen Jiaxu was the last one to come forward. He had been waiting for a long time and approached meekly.
He tilted his head slightly, and his uniform was not open like the others, only a tiny crack was exposed, as if waiting for someone to open it.
But now, he gently pulled the collar, and the crack became shaky, like a hunting beast inviting its companions to cut open the belly of its prey.
"It's my turn."
