Chapter 277 SAN Value Drops Rapidly
The moment he heard the cry, Chen Ye suddenly looked in the direction where the sound came from...
With the help of the pale will-o'-the-wisp light, he saw clearly the low hut covered with thorns not far away.
The construction style was very simple, just like a slum building made of a few pieces of steel and cement.
It seemed to be specially provided for the poor.
At this moment.
The image of luck lingering in the hut has changed dramatically!
Drops of blood dripped from the dark object that was as black as the mouth of a devil.
The blood condensed into the figures of babies in the distorted light curtain.
The babies cried loudly.
Their voices sounded completely unlike humans, like the sharp cry of some kind of bird of prey, sharp and piercing, full of resentment.
Chen Ye, who has always been sensitive to sound, frowned instinctively when he heard the sound, and felt uncomfortable from the bottom of his heart.
He felt a distorted consciousness, as if something that shouldn't be born was forcibly dragged into this world through birth.
"What's in that hut..."
This is the first time Chen Ye has seen such a strange sign of luck since the advent of the strange era.
He carefully observed the sign of luck and found that it was almost surrounding the hut, locked inside, and there was no sign of it leaking out.
Moreover, the blood-red light was not aimed at himself, which meant that even if he went forward to watch, he should not encounter unsolvable danger.
Chen Ye blended into the night, and with the help of the aura of the title of the lightless stalker, he slowly and carefully approached the direction of the hut, intending to take a closer look at the situation there.
When he moved to a distance of less than ten meters from the hut...
A pale light shone on the ground, destroying the ability of the lightless stalker.
Looking in the direction of the light source, Chen Ye found two soul-guiding lamps hanging on the niche at the door of the hut.
Suddenly.
Thick blood then oozed out of the soul-guiding lamp.
Lines of blood-colored words condensed and formed in the void like insects——
[The soul-guiding lamp here seems to be bound to some kind of soul and cannot be destroyed. ]
[With a sense of conspiracy...]
[Is it a soul or a monster? ]
The blood-colored words appeared briefly for a moment, and then disappeared.
Chen Ye recalled the content of the blood-colored words, frowned, and fell into deep thought.
"Bound to some kind of soul... The soul-guiding lamp is indeed related to the soul... Could it be related to the [Spirit World] sequence?"
"It's just that this thing is bound to something in the room, and there may be a sense of conspiracy?"
"The soul-guiding lamp does have the ability to attract souls, but if the attraction is fully utilized and a certain design is added, can it attract other more bizarre existences?"
Chen Ye did not forget that for this city of destiny, everything related to the [Spirit World] is considered an alien object.
Will it be... similar to what von Lucius did at that time?
Using the soul-calling method, he could summon things from that world to the City of Destiny, thus affecting the city?
Could he have encountered a part of the God War?
Thinking of this, Chen Ye's mind suddenly became solemn, but at the same time he was a little excited.
As a high-end player in the Weird Era, he would naturally pay more attention to the God War.
This is likely to involve the structure of the entire City of Destiny dungeon...
Even... from the elementary level to the deeper existence after this game comes to reality!
While there are opportunities, it also means that you need to face risks.
Chen Ye used the dice of fate to evaluate this action. Relatively speaking, the danger was not that great. He thought to himself:
"If it is really the divine authority of fate and the divine authority of the spirit world fighting each other, then the corresponding channel was opened hundreds of years ago under the arrangement of Feng Lucius. Therefore, similar events must be all over the city. This is just one of them."
"Opening the channel is the main way for the spirit world sequence to enter the city of fate, but this channel will never be opened only one, but many."
"So, even if one of the channels has any problems due to an accident, it will probably not attract the attention of the divine authority. Their level and status are too high. This is just a small part of the plan. Even if there is an accident, it may not attract the attention of the deity."
The loud cry sounded again.
It's just... this time the cry seems to be a new round, with a brand new life.
Among them, it is mixed with the previous cry, but it seems to be getting weaker and weaker, and is gradually covered by the loud cry.
Squeak! Squeak!
Suddenly, there was a sound of a door opening from the back of the hut.
His figure retreated several steps and immediately hid in the shadows, using his spiritual perspective to check the surrounding scenery.
At this moment, the old wooden door in the backyard of the hut slowly opened with an unpleasant friction sound.
Several barely recognizable outlines of human figures walked out from behind the wooden door.
A faint fishy smell emanated from the interior of the wooden hut, which was then captured by Chen Ye's more acute sense of smell after he unlocked [Chef].
Chen Ye narrowed his eyes slightly, concentrated his spiritual power, and his vision penetrated the darkness, and he saw the appearance of those figures clearly.
They were wearing the same tattered clothes, which were covered with mold and dampness, just like the oil that seeped out of the corpse after it rotted, mixed with the half-rotten clothes, and finally stuck to the surface of the skin. It was hard to tell whether it was clothes or the strange color blocks covered by the skin.
The skin of these figures was not normal white, but pale like a dead person, without any blood color. The moisture in the skin seemed to evaporate, and it was shriveled and thin. Some places were black, which was integrated with the sporadic mold on the surface of the clothes. It made people feel that these figures seemed to be wearing clothes, but also seemed to be not wearing clothes.
Looking with the eyes of luck, it was found that the head of the figure was shrouded in a halo of nothingness, with only a gray line, like a winding chain, leading to a head like an evil ghost.
The evil ghost head was in a very far distance.
These figures lingered at the door for a moment, then walked numbly in the direction of the chain, slowly approaching the evil ghost head step by step, as if they were going to walk into the abyss of the mouth of the head.
"The image of nothingness and luck..."
"Does it mean that these figures no longer have self-awareness?"
"But they seem to have retained the ability to move their bodies under the influence of some characteristics."
Chen Ye narrowed his eyes slightly, judging from this that the reason these figures can still move must be that they are affected by some existence.
Last time, there were similar signs. It was the blood-colored insects in the pollution of the West River. As parasites, they attached to the neural network of the aborigines, thereby controlling their actions and existing and moving in this way.
But the figures seen this time are fundamentally different from the parasites of the pollution of the West River.
Could it be related to the soul-guiding lamp at the door?
Chen Ye planned to enter the hut and find out!
The next second.
He walked over slowly.
This time, Chen Ye did not use the characteristics of [Wanderer's Boots], but maintained normal movement, carefully approaching the destination, while walking, observing the surrounding luck signs, if there is any danger, then retreat in time to avoid the source of danger.
Finally... Chen Ye's figure came to the door of the hut, within the illumination range of the two soul-guiding lamps.
But at this moment, the wick of the soul-guiding lamp suddenly shook a few times, and a dangerous spiritual alert suddenly rose from Chen Ye's heart, like a long alarm bell. The blood-red light slowly diffused from the wick, like a blood-red snake spitting out a long tongue, winding around the cold area of Chen Ye's neck.
Chen Ye took a few meters in one step, retreated a few steps, and hid in the shadows again...
This sense of danger quickly faded away with the dissipation of the luck sign.
Chen Ye stared at the two soul-guiding lamps burning quietly at the door, frowning, and muttered to himself:
"It seems... if an outsider enters the light of the soul-guiding lamp, the traces of invasion will be discovered, thus triggering the characteristics of this hut and being attacked."
With the help of the image of luck, Chen Ye saw that this hut was connected to the lightless land and to some deeper darkness...
This means that this hut is likely to be a property in the lightless land and protected by rules.
If the invader does not have a strong strength and rashly invades the unknown area and violates these rules, he will fall into a very passive situation, with a high probability of losing his life, and the consequences are even more unpredictable.
Chen Ye frowned slightly, thinking to himself:
"If you want to enter this hut and check the status inside, you have to find a way to eliminate the light of the soul-guiding lamp."
"But... I don't have the characteristics of the real [Darkness] sequence."
"As for the [Lightless Stalker]... you need to sneak in without a light source, but the light source of the soul-guiding lamp will destroy the stealth mode."
"Is there any way to deal with the light source of the soul-guiding lamp..."
Chen Ye pondered for a moment, and suddenly realized that since the soul-guiding lamp is likely to be related to the [Spiritual Realm] sequence, can he use the characteristics of [Soul-crossing Sound] to affect the soul-guiding lamp?
Maybe this method is really feasible?
Thinking of this, Chen Ye took out the white flute, put it to his mouth, puffed up his chest, and blew hard.
The next second...
A sharp white flute sound pierced through this dark space with a high frequency. The sound exceeded the frequency that the human ear could receive, and turned into an ultrasonic wave, extinguishing the soul-guiding lamp.
Suddenly, the light of the soul-guiding lamp dimmed, and was extinguished by the penetrating power of the white flute.
"It really works!"
Chen Ye smiled slightly, feeling happy for this successful attempt.
Suddenly, he realized that the penetrating power of sound is also one of the energies that can be used...
Playing in the form of ultrasound, it has super energy, and because it exceeds the range that the human ear can receive, it is not easy to be discovered by other weirdness.
After all, most of the weird rules are made by humans, except for some professions in the [Demon] and [Monster] sequences. Otherwise, most of the aborigines have similar body structures to humans, and their hearing and vision will also be stuck within the scope of humans. Only some professions will have different characteristics, but they may not be related to hearing.
The method found by Chen Ye can be said to affect the soul-guiding lamp while not easily disturbing other existences.
Of course... If you are unlucky and really encounter such an existence, there is nothing to say.
The light source disappeared, and Chen Ye's figure sneaked into the darkness again, like a water curtain moving in the shadows, quietly came to the window of the hut, and looked inside quietly...
At this moment, his pupils shrank slightly...
The scene in the house... It is simply difficult to describe in words, beyond the imagination of normal people!
The whole house was filled with corpses lying in all directions.
On the bodies of these corpses, mold-like black bugs shuttled through the blood vessels under the skin, sucking the nutrients in them.
In the center of the hut, there was a stone bed.
On the stone bed lay a fat woman with a big belly. She had long hair, a pale face, and a painful expression. She was suffering the pain of female childbirth.
However, she seemed to have gotten used to this kind of pain. Her eyes were empty and her expression was numb. She only occasionally showed an expression of being unable to bear it and slightly opening her mouth, but she could not make any sound. I don’t know if it was because her throat was still hoarse, or because the constant "wa wa wa" crying sounds around her were even louder, making her no longer want to make any sound.
Puff puff puff!
The sticky blood flowed along the stone bed.
There was a bloody baby's body under the bed, and the outline of a human could barely be seen.
The loud crying sound came from the baby's mouth.
However, not long after the baby raised his voice, the mold-like insects around him immediately rushed over frantically and devoured the baby's entire body.
Those mold-like insects gradually grew bigger and turned bloody all over, like centipedes.
After sucking blood, these insects grew to the thickness of two or three fingers. After they were full, they moved slowly and leisurely, slowly crawling onto the woman's shoulders, along her neck, and into her mouth.
At this moment, the woman's belly suddenly became bigger again, as if some new life was bred inside.
At the same time...
The soul-guiding lamp in the wooden house suddenly flickered a few times again, and the wick began to burn, as if to summon something.
Chen Ye's spirit once again felt a sense of crisis!
He had no time to play the [Soul-crossing Sound] to prevent the soul-guiding lamp from burning again.
He looked around and suddenly found a wooden box half a meter high near the door.
As long as he squatted behind it, he could use the cover of the wooden box to avoid the light of the soul-guiding lamp.
Chen Ye quickly hid behind the box...
At this moment, the wick burst into a burst of white light, and the soul-guiding lamp was lit again...
