Chapter 2791 Ghoul

In the cordon with flickering lights, two teams of Purifiers and Sweepers are facing each other.

Although both belong to the Bureau of Heresy Interrogation, one purifies monsters and the other cleans demons, but where there are monsters, there are often demons. Conversely, where there are demons, there must be a lot of items contaminated with demonic energy, so The scope of work of purifiers and sweepers often overlaps, and there will also be conflicts due to issues of authority and command authority-they are not "worker bees" without the ability to think independently. During the long-term contact with monsters and demons, More or less will be affected to produce something similar to thinking and emotion, at least, for work needs, it is necessary to use computing power to simulate similar things.

However, seeing Chu Zhixiao's appearance, the dispute between the purifier and the sweeper stopped instantly, and they both stared at her with strange eyes, as if she was some kind...a strange species covered in viruses all over her body.

Chu Zhixiao has long been accustomed to such gazes.

She opened the cordon and walked straight to the place where the smell of blood was strongest.

"Major Chu—"

A sweeper walked up stiffly to intercept, "It's just a regular 'ghoul incident', there are already four or five teams of purifiers and sweepers here, it seems that I don't need to bother you... The Yaksha team has mobilized many troops, right?"

"A regular 'ghoul event'?"

Chu Zhixiao didn't even look at the sweeper, and said coldly, "Normal ghoul incidents don't erupt so fast. In just twenty-four hours, thousands of ghouls were born, and even The priesthood of the Zhishan family is involved, this is not a situation you can deal with, go away."

She reached out to push the Purifier away.

But before her hand touched the opponent, the opponent jumped away like an electric shock.

In the depths of Chu Zhixiao's eyes, there was a slight ripple, and he strode forward with no expression on his face.

The purifiers and sweepers in front were like water being separated by rocks, and they automatically made a way for her to come to the first scene where the ground was covered with blood.

This is the mixing room for combustion accelerants. In the narrow semi-open cabin, there are nearly ten corpses lying in disorder. All corpses have obvious signs of beast bites on their throats, arms and even chests. The worst corpse was even taken out. Empty internal organs, ribs are like broken spears poking into the sky.

The extremely bloody and disgusting scene did not make Chu Zhixiao's eyelashes tremble even halfway. Her indifferent eyes swept over all the mutilated corpses, and her thick-soled military boots stepped nonchalantly in the pool of blood, one step at a time. , and walked towards the back cabin.

In the cabin behind, it seems that a ferocious beast is being imprisoned, constantly making brutal roars, and there are also "boom bang" impact sounds, and the bulkheads that are several inches thick are bumped out by it.

"What's the situation, is it a 'ghoul'?"

Before Chu Zhixiao stepped into the second cabin, he asked suddenly.

"That's right, they were indeed infected with the 'Glutton Virus' and turned into ghouls, and judging from their strength increase and ferocity, they are still some kind of upgraded version of the Glutton Virus, contagious, deadly and threatening Sexuality has been greatly improved."

In the second cabin, there was an unusually mellow voice.

If a person's appearance is determined by his voice, then the owner of this voice must be a peerless handsome man.

However, judging from the hellish expressions of the purifiers and sweepers around them and their attitudes as if they were facing an enemy, there should have been no one in the second cabin just ten seconds ago.

When Chu Zhixiao walked into the second cabin, the first thing he saw was a strange person who was bound tightly by arm-thick chains and sealed in the corner.

It—he was still wearing the tattered battleship uniform on his body, but the skin under the uniform had turned a hot, hot crimson, and thick blue veins bulged from his limbs to his abdomen, deforming his abdomen Swelling, like a pregnant woman who is pregnant in October.

There was no trace of piety and obedience in his cloudy eyes, but he seemed to have degenerated into a hungry beast, his brain was completely occupied by primitive desires, he bared his teeth and spit out saliva.

Seeing him salivating, he seemed to be very interested in the "meaty smell" that Chu Zhixiao exuded, and wanted to pounce on him and bite him hard, but he was tied up by chains, and he couldn't escape with all kinds of struggles. He went berserk, yelled, and slammed his head against the steel plate of the bulkhead, his head was bleeding and he was in a mess.

A tingling scene happened!

After knocking out a big ball of plasma on the bulkhead, he was actually attracted by the smell of his own blood. He stuck out his tongue and licked his own blood greedily, licking every drop of blood clean, still dissatisfied, and again With a flick of his head, he slammed into the wall with a "boom", knocking out a big ball of blood, and continued to lick it.

It seems that if there is no one to stop him, he can keep hitting and licking like this until he kills himself or swallows him up!

Any normal person should scream piercingly upon seeing such a strange scene.

But the two people in this cabin other than the monster, whether the "major" Chu Zhixiao or another middle-aged man with a face like a crown of jade, eyes like a bright star, and more "beautiful" than his voice, are far away from the Holy League, Federation There is a distance of one hundred and eight thousand miles from the "standard of normal people" of the three forces of the empire.

Chu Zhixiao only took one look at the "ghoul" before losing interest, and turned to look at the handsome middle-aged man with fluttering hair - this gentleman is one of the four core members of the Yasha team. With a clear mind and a complete memory, Yun Haixin, a cultivator who joined the Holy League, "Black Dream".

"I just sneaked into this guy's brain and saw what happened in the power cabin in the past 24 hours. It is indeed a typical scene of the outbreak of the 'gluttonous virus', but it is faster than the previous virus outbreak. and brutality."

Between Yun Haixin's eyes, there is always a faint black mist lingering, making his real eyes and emotions hidden in the black dream, he said, "And, one of the three priests on the Chasing Light, It has indeed mutated into a 'ghoul'. The gluttonous virus in the past is not so deadly contagious. Even your most 'holy' and most 'steadfast' priests, the dignified Zhishan clan, have all been reduced to it. Slave, haha!"

Chu Zhixiao ignored the unabashed irony in Yun Haixin's words, and fell into deep thought.

In the past one or two years, the "gluttonous virus" that has spread wantonly on various planets and fleets of the Holy League is not a real virus, but a "spiritual drug" that directly acts on the human brain.

Compared with the "devils" of the Real Human Empire, the Holy League people have wonderful telepathy and brain wave resonance capabilities. Every morning and evening, they will regularly open their brains and bathe in the holy light, including a large number of simple commands. , are directly transmitted through brain waves.

This way of communication and social structure also means that their brains are more fragile, and they are more likely to be invaded and interfered by people with ulterior motives. As long as the brain of a member of the Holy League is invaded, during the Holy Light Ceremony, everyone will If you open your brain, there is a high possibility of cross-infection, which will evolve into a large-scale emotional and viral outbreak.

"Gluttony virus" is a psychotropic drug that directly acts on the brain and stimulates the primitive desire deep in the soul. More precisely, it stimulates the "appetite" of human beings.

When this secret and deadly psychotropic drug is implanted into the human brain through the spiritual network, telepathy, or direct hypnosis, it will open up the long-suppressed appetite of the members of the Holy League.

In the beginning, the "gluttonous virus" will deceive people's taste buds and taste nerves, allowing people to taste the taste of dragon liver and phoenix marrow from the chewy synthetic food, the taste of delicacies.

It is conceivable that for the members of the Holy League who have drank tasteless paste for a lifetime, the sudden explosion of taste buds is such a ecstasy.

These poor members of the Holy League are often captured by the "gluttonous virus" in an instant and become slaves to appetite, but like all drugs, this kind of spiritual drug also has the problem of becoming more and more "not addictive". Knowing the taste, the deeper you sink, the more you devour, the more dissatisfied you are, the more dissatisfied you are, the more you have to devour more and more food. In the end, the stimulation of psychotropic drugs gradually fades away, no matter how much synthetic food you devour, you can’t Taste a little bit of sweet and delicious taste from it, and at this time, people whose mouths have been spoiled by the "gluttony virus" will absolutely not be able to bear the monotony of synthetic food anymore.

At this time, their belief in the gods and their reverence for the Supreme Master have long been destroyed and swallowed by the glutton in their stomachs. They no longer care about all laws and teachings, and they will use all means to find fresher and sweeter food—real food. Food, not lumps of slimy excrement!

Unfortunately, on most resource-poor planets and starships, especially within the reach of the bottom-level "worker bees" and "soldier bees", there is only one thing that can be called "delicious food".

That is each other's flesh and blood.

In this way, "Ghoul" was born.

The brain is deeply eroded and paralyzed by the "gluttony virus", and the consciousness is controlled by a strong appetite. They bite people, eat meat, suck blood, chew bones, devour internal organs, and get unparalleled pleasure from swallowing blood. It is the sad victim of the gluttonous virus, the typical image of the ghoul.

There is no doubt that the "gluttonous virus" is an evil weapon created by the new leader of the Shenxin Society, the "Puppet King", to overthrow the Holy League.

And in just one year, the puppet king is still constantly transforming and upgrading the destructive power of the "gluttonous virus".

At the beginning, it only increased the appetite and bloodthirsty, and then it can instantly detonate the secretion of adrenaline in the human body, causing decades of vitality to be burned out in a short moment, turning people into infinitely powerful and extremely fast. Quick, monsters with sharp claws and shocking "ghoul outbreaks" are all masterpieces of the puppet king.
