Twisted Realm

Chapter 280: taboo

Entering the experimenter's dormitory area, Meng Xuan saw the large iron gates full of complicated ritual patterns again. Based on his memory, he found the door of the room in the middle and lower section that the crystal card could open, and pasted the crystal card. above the pattern node.

hum! !

The complex lines on the door slowly light up, and begin to flicker regularly, transforming the virtual and the real.

This time, Meng Xuan walked straight into the room instead of stretching out a frightening pale arm from the door like last time.

The furnishings in the room were the same as when he first entered. They were very simple. Meng Xuan's eyes swept across the room and stopped at the two ceremonies in the corner.

Toilet rituals and bathing rituals  …

Now that he has a wealth of ritual knowledge, he tried to interpret other rituals in the room, and finally found that although it was only a room for ordinary experimenters, the confidentiality level of the ritual pattern was still very high, because after all, it involved Going to many secret top laboratories, it is impossible to completely destroy it with his current ritual level.

The rituals of the entire experimental base should all originate from a core center, that is, the "mother" ritual. All other rituals are "child" rituals connected to the mother, destroying and cracking any "child" ritual. It will cause the reaction of the "mother" ritual, resulting in the effects of early warning, defense, attack, and self-destruction of items. If you want to really crack the sub-ceremony, you must trace the source and put the "mother" ritual that is at the core center and has a very high personality. It is necessary to crack it, which is completely beyond his ability.

Nelson civilization deserves to be all top "programmers"...

Meng Xuan couldn't help sighing sincerely, shook his head, and gave up the idea of ​​cracking these rituals to open the storage facilities in the room.

Finally, he turned his attention to the diary on the desktop again.

This should be the only thing he can get useful information about in the room.

What really happened during the period of the laboratory disaster?

Meng Xuan picked up the diary, opened it carefully, and carefully turned over the dry and yellowed pages. At the time, due to the lack of time, and he was impatient, he skipped most of the content and specifically searched for the "wisdom-giving ceremony". The contents of the words were read, so in fact he did not understand most of the contents of the diary.

Later, due to the approach of the Nine Life Palace inspection team, most of his energy was devoted to the translation and research of the experimental records, and he neglected the translation of the diary. Later, he left Shahe City and only returned until now.

Now, he started from the beginning, followed the previous part, and continued to read.

"On January 10, 197 of the Pale Calendar, after three days of hard work, I finally withstood the test of Mr. Brangner and successfully stabilized my will. The 'Assimilation Observation' team accepted me and signed the After a series of non-disclosure agreements, they finally handed me my first official task, thank you for the gift of the Seventy-two King Pillars! I can finally earn 'zero points' quickly in exchange for the gift ceremony!"

"I asked Akana Saro, who came half a month earlier than me, about the job content. She just shook her head and told me to prepare myself mentally and control my emotions. After the first job, it is best to go to The purification room will do a spiritual purification, then do a period of repentance, carefully examine your own mind, and then start the next work after confirming that there is nothing wrong."

"To be honest, her tepid and incomprehensible words are more terrifying than telling me the truth. This guy is such a character, and he always has some bad taste. When he first entered the dormitory, this guy She hid in the bed with an alienation mask, which really shocked me, until now I can still remember the frightening feeling at that time, and I can still hear her laugh happily!!"

"..."

Meng Xuan continued reading and found some information.

"Arcana Saro, her roommate? Could it be that mummy?"

Meng Xuan touched his chin and guessed in his heart.

"Damn!! Although I have seen the picture book and photos, and I have prepared for the experiment in the laboratory, I was still frightened when I actually witnessed those existences, no, I was frightened! I didn't do all the work, Just like an ostrich, she followed behind Arcanasaro so tremblingly."

"Our job is to feed those disgusting experimental subjects and record some relevant signs and data!! Those rotting, buried, twisted, Fluid-splattered, chaotic monsters, just looking at them, I felt like my head was about to explode, and an instinctual fear, tremor, and confusion poured into my mind, The light of the talisman can't be stopped! Staying in that room for a moment, I feel that I will be alienated and completely become like them!"

"I couldn't work the whole day when I came back, and I spent it all in dizziness, vomiting and trembling. Fortunately, Acanasaro sent me into the purification room. Shenghui's baptism made me feel a little warm... …”

"Akanassaro told me, give up if you can't bear it. In this test base filled with terrifying pollution and power, any negative emotions will be wirelessly amplified, eventually eroding the individual's reason and breaking the human body. A certain string in the middle, which in turn leads to alienation, so not only will I not earn any zero points, but I may also lose my life."

"The team members gave me a comprehensive psychological assessment, and the results were not qualified. The team administrator talked to me. He said that if my emotions could not return to normal within three days, I had to quit the experimental group, otherwise there would be Great risk of alienation..."

"To be honest, I hesitated. I no longer want to face those indescribable, terrifying, filthy monsters, and the thought that they may have been of my kind once made my stomach feel extremely uncomfortable."

"..."

Meng Xuan continued to read the diary carefully. From the diary, he knew that the owner of the diary was really just a relatively low-level experimenter, who was doing the most basic chores, such as feeding the experimental subjects and collecting basic data. Recording and inputting work, but such basic work, is very difficult for them.

Meng Xuan has a deep understanding of this, not to mention those alienated bodies, even he himself, when he first awakened his extraordinary power, he did not know how to control it, and even ordinary people who witnessed their battles would fall into chaos and distortion, not to mention long-term The owner of the diary who has directly witnessed a large number of alienated bodies in this environment.

"On January 13, 197 in the Pale White Calendar, the deadline came. After three days of struggle, I finally chose to stay. It took so much cost to get this opportunity to join the Zero Institute. What I got, I don't know how to go back to see Frege, and, even if it's not to satisfy my sense of guilt, even if it's for Andrew, I have to persevere, Bona, you can!"

"Acanasaro taught me some methods of self-emotional hypnosis, which allowed me to successfully pass the psychological assessment, and I ended up staying..."

Reading this, even Meng Xuan couldn't help feeling a little pity for this selfless mother.

Next, Meng Xuan saw this mother named "Bona" in her diary, struggling step by step in the research institute. For the next few months, she walked on thin ice all day, with fear, nightmares and strong emotional restraint. However, she has seen the alienation and madness of ordinary researchers who are similar to her one after another. If it wasn't for Acanasaro's frequent psychological counseling, she would have been the same as those other ordinary researchers.

At the same time, from the few words described in her diary, Meng Xuan also learned something about the woman named Akanasaro.

In Bona's description, Acanasaro's character is very elusive. The other party never tells her about her origin and purpose of coming, and Bona is not easy to inquire, because everyone who is willing to come to such a ghost place , I am afraid there will be some difficult places to speak.

Acanasaro has a tough personality and a cold appearance. She doesn't have a good relationship with other researchers. She doesn't like to socialize with people. Only Bona knows that she is a cold-hearted person, but she also has times when she has a bad personality, such as occasionally Do some more outrageous pranks and then let out a maddening laugh.

But from the beginning to the end, Bona felt that Arcana Leroy was the most rational existence among all ordinary researchers. She always seemed to be able to keep calm in front of those crazy monsters, which made Bona feel that the other party must have a very strong heart. Deep obsession can resist the madness spread by those monsters.

Meng Xuan flipped through page by page, and quickly filtered out some cumbersome content in the middle. Because the other party was just an ordinary researcher, all the materials and information he came into contact with were relatively low-end, and there were not too many secrets. , the work is to repeat the original work day after day, and even the members of the real experimental group have little contact.

From the words and sentences in the diary, it can be seen that Bona is sometimes emotionally unstable, and some of the words are full of despair, irritability and hysteria. Meng Xuan suddenly understood the reason why she wrote the diary.

She seems to want to vent all negative emotions into the diary, which may help her stabilize her emotions.

Turning the diary back one by one, about three months passed. Bona successfully saved enough zero points, and exchanged the wisdom gift ceremony she wanted from the seventh-level citizen. It can be seen from the fragments of the diary, At that time, Bona's heart was completely filled with joy. She was full of longing and ambition. She could earn so many zero points in just three months. If she worked for a while, maybe she could earn more?

But it was at this time that some anomalies finally appeared in the laboratory.

"My God! Today all employees were told that they must stay in their rooms and can't go anywhere. The center directly cut off the ceremony of the door to the room, and we couldn't even get out! Around noon, we felt violent The shaking was like a huge earthquake, which lasted for more than ten minutes! I was so frightened that I couldn't help hugging Acanasaro. She seemed as calm as always, and she was even a little lost. Know what to think."

"Thankfully, in the evening, the ban was lifted, which means nothing devastating happened."

"The next day, the work continued as always, but today is a little different. All the alienated bodies are full of aggression. I don't know if it has something to do with the shock that day. I quietly found someone to inquire about the news, and they told me that it was fine. He also said that this is a good thing, the experiment of the center has made a breakthrough, and this time is a major breakthrough."

"I am skeptical. I found that in the next few days, the alienated bodies in the laboratory I am managing are rapidly decreasing, and a large number of them will be transferred away every once in a while, and I don't know what to do with them, but I am The work has eased off, and it seems to be doing well. It's just that the grounding orders and shaking have become more frequent, but through the occasional opportunity to meet Mr. With joy on their faces, perhaps, the experiment has really achieved a lot of success."

"Maybe after it succeeds, the lab will be cancelled and I'll lose a good place to make a lot of money, oh! What am I thinking, I have this idea for a little personal benefit, I should pray that the experiment is successful , end this dispute early~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Too many people died in the battle between the two worlds, I am ashamed of my evil thoughts, maybe it is because the pollution seems to have become bigger recently? Sometimes I even feel I couldn't control my emotions, and I couldn't help but start self-examination."

"I quietly asked Arcanasaro if she thought the experiment was successful and meaningful. Her answer surprised me."

"She said they were touching the 'taboo'."

"When she said this, there was a rare mood swing on her face, which seemed to be... fear?"

"I asked her again, but she didn't say anything anymore. She just told me not to worry. These are high-level disputes and have nothing to do with us little scoundrels."

"I don't quite agree, but maybe she's right, isn't it really taboo to combine that kind of power with humans?"

"..."

Meng Xuan continued to read, and his guess that Arcana Saro was the mummified corpse became more certain. Her behavior was a bit abnormal, and the "taboo" sentence made him feel that it probably did not point to the moral nature of the experiment.

It should be the experiment itself that touched some kind of "taboo".

Is this the real reason for the destruction of Institute Zero?

"On April 11, 197, the pale calendar, the situation in the laboratory was a bit strange. In just two days, the number of alienation of ordinary researchers in our group exceeded double digits! And, I can feel that deep in my heart There, it seems to reflect another shadow, this shadow is somewhat familiar, that is, that day, this shadow appeared in my dream and woke me up from the dream, I usually sleep very deeply."

"That is, when I woke up late that night, I found that the sleeping pod where Arcanasaro was sitting was empty..."
