MTL - Deep Sea Survival: Start a Submarine (Deep Ocean Survival: A Submarine From The Start)-Chapter 184 phantom murder
A young electrician goes berserk at the gate at the entrance to Dwight Avenue.
He seemed to have seen something extremely terrifying, and he frantically pulled his hair, then rushed towards the gate at an extremely fast speed, and disappeared from everyone's sight.
This sudden scene made Meng Lei and his party at a loss.
For a moment, I couldn't realize what happened.
In fact, it happened so suddenly, like a sudden street performance, it was confusing.
But through the reactions and shouts of the surrounding crowd, Meng Lei realized vigilantly that the young electrician must have been mentally polluted, and some kind of hallucination appeared in front of him.
Because he was not sure how wide the scope of this mental pollution was, Meng Lei didn't dare to approach it rashly.
He immediately prepared to move quickly with the team, leaving the nearby area first.
But at this time, before he had time to speak.
All of a sudden, Meng Lei felt that the scene in front of him was blurred, and the surrounding environment began to distort inexplicably.
The whole world suddenly became dark, and all the light seemed to be swallowed by some kind of force in an instant, and there appeared one after another dark and deep weird vortexes in the air, somewhat similar to flat conch shells.
These vortexes vary in size and are densely distributed vertically and horizontally.
Countless distorted lines are connected together from the end of the vortex, completely separating the world in front of me, like pieces of shattered mirrors.
That scene gave Meng Lei an extremely severe sense of visual fragmentation.
However, this feeling only lasted for a moment, and before Meng Lei had time to be surprised, he soon returned to normal.
"What happened just now? I also fell into hallucinations?"
This thought just surfaced, Meng Lei looked around, and was about to further observe the changes in the environment.
At this time, at the large gate at the end of the field of vision, the young electrician who had just frantically ran away from the passage turned back again.
However, there were some obvious changes in the electrician at this moment than before.
Clouds of black mist manifested around him out of thin air, squirming ferociously, constantly changing shapes, like incorporeal monsters, clinging to his back, head, and feet...
Tentacles or arms protruded from the black mist, clutching his body tightly, touching and hugging him desperately.
There was even some mist that turned into a human face, licking his cheek ferociously, and kissing him vigorously, conveying a kind of deformed greed and love.
That kind of picture is very weird, making people feel extremely disgusted and disgusted.
However, at this moment, Meng Lei felt that the black mist was constantly calling him, giving him a strong urge to blend in and become a part of the black mist.
"Illusion, it's all an illusion!"
Meng Lei was shocked, desperately concentrating, trying to resist the other party's call, and constantly doing psychological construction for himself to keep his brain clear.
He tried to turn his head away, wanting to call Huo Ye and Hans to help him get rid of the shackles of the illusion.
However, at this moment, his whole body was stiff and he couldn't move at all.
He could only stare at the black mist covering the young electrician's body motionlessly, gradually growing in size bit by bit, his shape becoming more and more ferocious and terrifying, and his behavior becoming more and more perverted and evil.
In the end, the electrician was swallowed up, and then rushed towards all directions crazily!
"Damn it! I can't move my body, and I can't even drink the potion. What should I do?"
Seeing the expanding and approaching black mist in the distance, gradually spreading towards him, Meng Lei broke out in a cold sweat, feeling extremely nervous.
Even though his subconscious mind knew all of this was an illusion, his body still felt a strong sense of fear.
The hallucinations caused by this kind of mental pollution are somewhat similar to the scream of the abyss banshee, but they are not exactly the same.
The shriek of the abyss banshee will cause people to have rather vague hallucinations and auditory hallucinations, and people will be greatly stimulated mentally in a short period of time, and they will fall into madness unconsciously.
But this kind of mental pollution hallucination is more clear and intuitive, as if everything that happened in front of him is real.
This kind of illusion will destroy people's spiritual will little by little, and drag the consciousness from the root into the spiritual cage constructed by the world of illusion.
If the will is not strong enough, it is easy to get stuck in it.
What kind of consequences can be caused in the end, you can guess with your toes.
The black mist is getting closer, the electrician has been completely swallowed by the monster transformed by the black mist, the whole city is dead silent, it seems that there is only Meng Lei left in the whole world.
Meng Lei's hands and feet were cold, and he wanted to call for help, but he couldn't make a sound.
He worked desperately, gnashing his teeth, trying to regain control of his body.
Finally, just before the black fog was about to spread to the feet, the legs finally had some sensation.
At the moment, Meng Lei didn't care too much, and instinctively started to run backwards, stumbling and embarrassed.
And in his hallucinatory world, the companions around him had long since disappeared, and the whole city was empty, shrouded in a dark gray fog.
"Run! Don't be touched by those black mist!"
At this moment, there was only one thought left in Meng Lei's mind, his legs were swinging desperately, and he tried his best to run away in the corner of the empty city.
However, the speed at which the black mist spread was too fast. With Meng Lei's current state, he didn't run too far before being overtaken by the mist.
All of a sudden, he felt a chill hit him, and his whole body seemed to be surrounded by boundless sea water.
Suffocated, cold, unable to break free...
The call from the black mist became more and more intense, and it had reached its limit. Meng Lei struggled desperately, trying his best to suppress the urge to merge with the sea water.
However, the moment the black mist enveloped him, his thoughts became disordered and he couldn't concentrate at all.
In the dark, he vaguely heard the singing, singing heartily in the deepest part of the darkness.
The singing was ethereal and desperate, like salvation from hell, reverberating wildly.
Gradually, Meng Lei's consciousness began to blur, his body completely lost control, and he was surrounded by a strong sense of suffocation.
"I... it's going to be cold?"
The last thought appeared in his mind, and after that, his consciousness was surrounded by boundless chaos.
At a certain moment before he completely lost consciousness, he vaguely felt as if he drank a sip of sea water, which was cold and piercing, refreshing his spleen and lungs.
Then, he didn't know anything.
…
I don't know how long it took, when consciousness returned again.
The harsh and noisy voice pulled him out of the boundless darkness of consciousness.
Meng Lei woke up suddenly and sat up abruptly, feeling a sharp pain in his brain.
At this time, a familiar voice rang in my ears.
"Commander! You're finally awake! How do you feel, is there anything uncomfortable?"
Meng Lei looked around in a daze, the dim light flickered in front of his eyes, and there seemed to be many figures walking around in a daze.
He shook his head vigorously and took a deep breath.
After a while, his sanity finally recovered.
Looking closer, I found that this is a facility similar to a ward. There are many double-decker metal beds in the room. Several medical staff in white coats are walking back and forth around, constantly messing with something.
Huo Ye and Simon were standing by his bed at the moment, with nervous expressions on their faces.
"I'm fine, what is this place? What happened just now?"
Memories are surging like a tide, he only remembers the scene he saw before he lost consciousness, it seemed to be shrouded in the black mist all over the city, and the indescribable monster transformed from the mist dragged him into the deepest part of the darkness, like drowning people sink into the abyss.
He has no memory of what happened after that.
"Commander, you were affected by hallucinations just now, and you ran around the city like a lunatic! It took us a lot of effort to control you, and fed you the potion to resist mental pollution. I fell into a coma and fell silent for a while."
Speaking of this, Huo Yezhi next to him patted his chest for a while, and sighed:
"The doctor said that luckily the potion worked in time and rescued you from the prison of hallucinations. Otherwise, if it was later, you would be like those people and become a fool for the rest of your life!"
With that said, Huo Ye pouted in the other direction.
Meng Lei turned his head to look, only then did he realize that there were still many unconscious people lying on other beds.
They are dressed in different ways, and they are obviously some pirates or bounty hunters.
However, these people did not receive the same treatment as Meng Lei, and most of them were lying alone on the hospital bed, like corpses that no one cares about, with no one to accompany them.
Moreover, these people basically all fell into a coma, murmuring indistinctly in their sleep.
Although a few people came to their senses, they also seemed to have lost their souls, sitting on the edge of the bed blankly, their eyes were empty and lifeless.
Sometimes he smirked, sometimes fell into panic, curled himself up and covered himself in the quilt, showing a strong sense of self-protection.
Obviously, these people have mental problems.
At this moment, Meng Lei suddenly felt that he was a bit like in a mental hospital, surrounded by mental patients.
"They are..."
Meng Lei was suspicious for a while, and looked up at Huo Ye with a questioning look.
"Just now near the entrance of Dwight Street, a large-scale mental pollution incident broke out. These people, like you, were affected by hallucinations, but they were not so lucky, and they didn't have time to drink the anti-spiritual pollution potion. That’s why it became like this.”
Huo Ye explained for Meng Lei, but his face was still a little scared, as if he was worried about Meng Lei's state, and he was afraid that Meng Lei would also become such a fool.
Meng Lei suddenly nodded, and finally recalled the whole story.
Everything started from the sudden madness of the young electrician, and then he fell into a cage of hallucinations and lost his correct perception of the surrounding environment.
Thinking of this, he suddenly asked:
"Where's the electrician? I remember, he went crazy and ran into Dwight Avenue, and then suddenly ran back. From then on, I should have been controlled by hallucinations. He was the first person to be polluted. Now How's it going?"
Hearing this, Simon and Hans looked at each other, with a strange look on their faces at the same time.
"he…"
Simon opened his mouth hesitantly, and finally sighed deeply, shaking his head and said: "He died, a terrible death!"
"died?!"
Meng Lei frowned slightly, and his expression suddenly became solemn: "What's going on?"
Huo Ye sighed: "He committed suicide, probably because he couldn't bear the pain caused by hallucinations, or was controlled by hallucinations, closed his eyes with his own hands, and scratched his face until it was completely inhuman.
In the end, he strangled himself tightly, as if possessed by an evil spirit, strangled himself to death..."
Speaking of this, Huo Ye looked at Meng Lei again, and said in a deep voice:
"In addition, he didn't run back from Dwight Avenue, but died in the corridor of Dwight Avenue. At that time, the scene was chaotic, and no one dared to approach him. We watched him commit suicide and die."
Hearing this, Meng Lei suddenly felt chills down his spine.
He vaguely remembered that he first saw the distorted vortex and the fragmented world, and then he saw the electrician running back from the passage.
If the facts are as Huo Ye said, then from the moment he saw the vortex, in fact, he has been controlled by the hallucination.
Everything that happened after that was an illusory world constructed by hallucinations.
"The twisted vortex that looks like a conch, is it the harbinger of the beginning of the hallucination?"
Meng Lei frowned and pondered, only feeling that his brain was in a mess and he couldn't think deeply at all.
Simply, he stopped thinking about it.
However, it is indeed unlucky to encounter a hallucination event just after entering the city.
"By the way, why are you two okay? What about the others?"
At this time, Meng Lei suddenly realized a problem.
When the mental pollution broke out, everyone stayed together, but why was he dragged into the hallucination cage, while Simon and Huo Ye were fine, what went wrong?
Hearing this, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Huo Ye shrugged helplessly, shook his head and said:
"We also don't know. The selection of objects for spiritual pollution seems to be irregular. There were many people present at the time, at least several hundred people, but the number of infected people was less than one-fifth. The doctors and doctors in Modo City Researchers don't know what's going on."
After a pause, Huo Ye continued: "In addition to you, Commander, Hans and another combatant named Wang Chong also fell into hallucinations. The others are nursing in the next ward."
"All right…"
Meng Lei nodded, turned over and jumped off the bed, stretching his muscles.
The tingling pain in his brain and the soreness in his body made him feel dazed again, and he staggered and almost fell to the ground.
Huo Ye had quick eyes and quick hands, he grabbed him by the arm and reminded:
"Commander, the doctor said that after swallowing the mental pollution resistance medicine, there will be a period of aftereffects. You'd better rest in bed for a while, and wait until you are completely stable before moving around..."
