Chapter 193 The Corpse Collector Has Arrived
Yun Zhao looked listless. "Oh."
They initially thought that not turning on the lights was a base rule to save electricity and maintain the operation of the digital life world.
But now this parking lot is enclosed on all sides, so even with the lights on, you can't see outside.
As for the so-called electricity meter.
In this eerie place, it's impossible for anyone to check the electricity meter.
So what will be attracted when the lights are turned on?
Tian Ling saw that she said "oh" but didn't say anything more.
She couldn't contain herself any longer. She exchanged a glance with her sister, and seeing her sister nod, she finally got to the point, "You...you're also opponents, right? Why don't you join us?"
Yun Zhao looked surprised. "There are only two of you. Shouldn't you be joining us?"
Tian Ling: "..."
Xie Tu curled the corners of his lips and looked down at the time: 5:50.
He opened his senses to investigate what was happening outside.
There was no sound at all.
After five o'clock, no one came out on the street anymore, leaving only corpses and remains scattered all over the ground.
The two sisters standing at the back, seeing that no one else was paying attention to them, already knew that the girl was in charge.
But Tian Ling couldn't argue with her at all.
Tian Shuang said softly, "There are more than just the two of us. In this base, there are many opponents just like us."
She paused, then said, "I'm sorry, but I have no further information to share unless you agree."
In the silent parking lot, the faint voices echoed, as if amplified countless times.
In the darkness, no one can see anyone else.
The flashlight beam could not dispel the thick darkness.
Yun Zhao's eyes flashed: "What is your purpose? To destroy the digital life world?"
Those who lined up to commit suicide had only one obsession left: to enter the digital world.
They couldn't get the key.
Only this group of opponents still maintains normal thinking and a human appearance.
But their obsession also seems to be related to the digital world.
If that's the case, does it mean that only by destroying the digital life world can we get the key to leave?
As for the gatekeeper...
There are too few clues at the moment to make a judgment.
Upon hearing her question, the sisters' expressions froze for a moment.
It seems like there's a bug with the NPC.
"Destroy the digital life world..."
"Destroy the digital life world..."
Tian Ling murmured, repeating her words.
Jiang Mu, who was closest to them, frowned and keenly noticed the sisters' unusual behavior.
The two sisters seemed to be in a state of confusion, repeatedly saying the phrase "destroy the digital life world".
The sentries were reluctant to have much contact with the indigenous people.
Firstly, frequent contact can easily lead to the development of feelings.
Secondly, they may be affected by the organisms in the polluted area and face the risk of being gradually assimilated.
Jiang Mu shone the flashlight beam on the two sisters' faces.
Now everyone around could see it clearly.
Tiny, dust-like particles floated on their pale faces.
His eyes were empty and lifeless, and his facial expression grew increasingly stiff, like a doll that had lost its soul.
There was no life in his black pupils.
The 'person' who was just normal a moment ago has suddenly changed his demeanor.
Several sentries from Li Guo, who had never been to the contaminated area before, instinctively took a few steps back, keeping their distance from the two sisters.
That's really weird.
The sentries entering the contaminated zone for the first time were horrified.
"Destroy the digital life world..."
The murmurs echoed in the empty parking lot, like a curse, sending chills down one's spine.
Yun Zhao had no choice but to use his mental power.
Wisps of bluish-green fluorescence flashed and flew towards the two sisters.
Her heart was inexplicably racing, and she subconsciously looked up at Xie Tu beside her.
It seems she promised him that she wouldn't recklessly use her abilities until she recovered her mental state.
Xie Tu's dark eyes remained fixed on her.
His face showed no expression.
This put pressure on Yun Zhao. She shifted her gaze, pretending not to see it, and said softly, "Since you are in the opposition, you should make your stance clear."
The psychic threads are attempting to influence the organisms within the contaminated area.
Her voice seemed to possess a magical power, instantly pulling the two sisters back to reality.
Tian Ling snapped out of her daze, her eyes regaining their clarity. "Yes."
"We oppose it because it distorts the essence of humanity, making people addicted to illusions and forgetting the reality of the real world."
The younger sister, Tian Shuang, said, "Nobody knows what kind of thing we are, the clones created by AI..."
They are right!
Those who had already witnessed the cloned mutants all had this thought at the same time.
It is now 5:58.
Xie Tu finally spoke up, using the excuse that "they need to discuss this internally" to quickly send the two away.
Seeing that they outnumbered him, the two sisters were reluctant to give up and wanted to persuade him further, but they shut their mouths when they met the man's cold gaze.
In the end, only one sentence remained.
"Alright then, we'll stay in 203. If you agree, you can come find us anytime."
In the pitch-black environment, where you couldn't see your hand in front of your face, the two walked straight towards the door as if walking on flat ground.
The two sisters quickly disappeared through the iron gate of the parking lot.
Orange's lynx ran to the door to observe, and after confirming that they had left, Orange immediately ran over and closed the iron gate.
"Captain, the entrance and exit of the parking lot have been welded shut..." Duan Xi only had time to say this.
Because Xie Tu held up his phone, he was informing everyone.
It's already six o'clock.
Everyone instinctively shut their mouths, shut out all their senses, and held their breath.
On the street surface that they cannot see.
Advanced Sentinel mutants, known as "corpse collectors," appeared out of thin air from the void.
They were a group of monsters with long, twisted limbs, their tall skeletons emanating black mist, like demons crawling up from the depths of hell.
The black slime on the monster's body was like a thick film of oil, tightly wrapping its skeletal form and flowing slowly, as if it were alive.
The viscous liquid dripped down, making a 'sizzling' corrosive sound.
It gives one a strong feeling of suffocation.
After the two S-class Sentinels released all their senses, they could hear a slight noise.
Besides the corrosive sound of the slime, there were also faint chewing sounds.
Xie Tu and Jiang Mu looked at each other from a distance.
It seems that I now understand how the so-called 'corpse collectors' actually collect corpses.
The Sentinel Mutants are eating those corpses...
They were hiding in the underground parking lot, which was too far away for anyone except Xie Tu and Jiang Mu to know what was happening on the street.
They didn't even dare to send their spiritual bodies out to investigate.
Those Sentinel mutants can see the psychic entities. We don't know their intelligence yet, or whether they will follow the clues to find us because of the psychic entities.
The flashlight beam was turned off.
Everyone stood motionless in the dark underground parking lot.
Yun Zhao kept his spirits up.
Deep down, I was thinking that standing for so long was tiring, and I should have asked the two sisters when the body collectors usually left.
Time passed slowly, and the commotion outside grew louder and louder.
The sizzling sound was like water dripping from a hot oil pan, and it went on and on.
They're getting closer and closer...
Xie Tu and Jiang Mu gripped their knives tightly at the same time.
