Chapter 1450 Artificial Existence Core (XVIII)
That kind of thing...eat it...
As a high-ranking superhuman and a night watcher in the city of charlatans, Winona has always thought that she is well-informed.
However, today, not only did she suffer a series of setbacks in dealing with this mysterious man named Gorrim Shaw, but even the situation described by her friend at this moment made her feel ignorant again.
She arrived at what she thought was the highest efficiency, and after hearing about her friend's strange behavior, she ran all the way, focusing her body and mind on confronting the invisible void. Although the pile of boxes made her feel strange, she didn't think too much about it before.
And if it was really the situation described by her friend...Winona also changed to peripheral vision for a while, secretly frightened.
This behavior is not like that of a normal person in any way, and the probability that Rick has supernormal abnormalities is undoubtedly greatly increased.
Now the question is, what is the purpose of this guy appearing here?
It doesn't seem to be purely malicious, but when he was discovered, he actually attacked the night watcher without any scruples...
This behavior seems to be described only as crazy.
"What else did that guy say?"
"Well... just before he disappeared, he mentioned the content of the communication, and that someone would come later and it didn't need to be kept secret... He seemed to know you would come?"
Claire naturally thought hard about her friend's question, and soon remembered a certain explanation that made people feel very strange before.
Sure enough, he was crazy and arrogant...
And her words made Winona speechless for a while.
Too rampant!
Even if we take a step back and say that Rick really has serious problems, and even the purpose of this guy's actions is the so-called "justice".
But after a series of operations, such a special reminder is a naked mockery of the Night Guard's incompetence.
...
"Don't worry, considering the current situation, I will apply to arrange for someone to protect you here."
In any case, Winona is not interested in sharing this kind of analysis that makes others look powerful.
After a little thought, she directly comforted her friend and indicated that there is no need to worry, and the Night Guard system has already started to operate for this matter.
It can be seen that this powerful organization still brings a clear sense of security. Claire's face, which was originally a little calm, became calmer for a while.
"So what does that guy want to do?"
...
This question is indeed a bit difficult to answer, and Winona was silent for a while.
However, seeing that her friend still had a gloomy look, she still grabbed his hand.
"Don't think too much, it's not your fault. The meeting was obviously a deliberate design."
"... In addition, it may not be possible to determine what the madman wants to do at present, but what I can be sure of is that he will pay the price for what he has done."
Although she tried her best to suppress it, Winona still gritted her teeth in the last sentence.
Anyone who heard it would not doubt her determination.
Including Fu Qian.
...
I paid attention to it, but not enough.
In the dark, Fu Qian listened to the conversation between the two people in front of him, thinking for a while.
Of course, he did not leave. Although this trip was rewarding, there could be more.
The gorgeous scene of turning off the lights and leaving just now was just a matter of interest to create an atmosphere.
The moment the lights went out, he started the bloody expedition.
As for why the rhythm of the lights going out can be controlled so well, the reason is very simple-the direction of the thread of concern is approaching.
Facts have proved that when the night watchman realized that he was looking for clues here, the probability that he would come here was not so high, and finally only Winona came.
Leilan should be doing internal deployment and searching head-on.
Division of labor and cooperation, waiting for her to really gain something, and then coordinating actions.
It is a very reasonable arrangement, but it is a pity that Winona may be motivated enough, but as a contaminated member, she is not suitable to rush to the front in this pursuit.
"Okay, I'll send you back first, you concentrate on resting and waiting for others to come."
Winona, who showed some resentment, obviously would not only practice the spiritual victory method. The next moment, looking at Claire, she made arrangements very straightforwardly-
"Why did you turn off the lights?"
However, as soon as the voice fell, Winona was stunned, looking at the dark space in front of her again.
For an extraordinary person, this kind of darkness is not enough to make her completely blind.
What surprised her was why the lights were turned off suddenly.
Second, it seems that Claire didn't turn off the light.
In the darkness, Claire's figure was standing in the dim light at the door, a long way from the light.
The same is true for her.
She was still right in front of her when she said the last sentence.
Winona had a strong ominous premonition in her heart about the strange changes in this strange place.
"What... I didn't turn it off!"
The next moment, Claire at the door said in a puzzled and trembling tone.
...
The person really hasn't left yet!
At that moment, Winona's scalp felt like it was electrocuted. She quickly took out her weapon again, held her breath and entered the first level of combat readiness.
However, this action only lasted for a few seconds. She didn't notice any movement, and suddenly another kind of fear arose, turning her head to look at Claire outside.
"I know it wasn't you who turned it off, so who turned on the light just now? Was it me?"
"Just now..."
The strange question coming from the darkness seemed to make Claire a little confused.
"You didn't turn on the light..."
While she was mumbling to herself subconsciously, her fear quickly became stronger.
"Just now, after you shouted and rushed in, it was always dark inside..."
Sure enough, something was wrong... So who was the person who was talking to me just now?
No one was talking to me, I was just dragged into a dream-like illusion!
Claire's highly infectious speech made even Winona feel overwhelmed for a moment.
But in a flash, a realization came to her mind.
Just like what Gorrim Shaw tried to do when she and Lei Lan went to investigate.
The only difference is that he didn't achieve his goal at that time, but this time he finally succeeded.
Turn on the lights, communicate...
From the time I rushed to the house, everything that followed happened in a dream.
This explains why Claire said that the lights were never turned on.
From her perspective, after I went in, I kept searching silently in the dark.
In this case, in order to avoid getting in the way, she took the initiative to retreat to the door.
Things seemed to be clear, but the question was what was the purpose of that guy doing this?
Facing the darkness that was still the same as before, Winona fell into an uncontrollable confusion.
There was even a weird point in it - the first time I encountered this trick, I was caught off guard and still managed to get rid of the influence.
However, this time, not only did I have experience, but I was even in the most alert state, but I was the first to be tricked.
This is totally unreasonable.
Although my ability is not inclined to the spiritual level, I am not powerless to resist such means - demigod!
At a certain moment, Winona stared at the empty darkness and felt her hands and feet stiff as wood.
There is a demigod hidden in this, or even in the entire incident of Rick's disappearance?
It seems that I was too optimistic before. If that is the case, things are no longer under my and Lei Lan's control.
