Chapter 97 At the Moment, This Seems to Be a Dead End!
Finally, Che Hyun-soo fainted again, and when he woke up, he was locked in the isolation room.
But the electric gun in his hand still attracted Li Enhe's attention.
"Who made this thing?" Li Enhe asked Xia Shang.
"An uncle upstairs."
"I think we need his help." Li Enhe walked to the iron door of the apartment. "If we only rely on these wooden boards and iron chains, the monsters may break through at any time. To ensure the safety of the residents on the first floor, we must reinforce the iron door again."
"However, it's getting dark now."
According to Li Enhe's observation, monsters will become more active after dark, and it is obviously not a good choice to pick people up at this time.
"Are you going to let me go?" Xia Shang asked with a frown.
Li Enhe moved his eyes to the direction of the isolation room and shook his head: "It's too dangerous for ordinary people to go."
His meaning was very clear. He wanted Che Hyun-soo to go, because in his opinion, Che Hyun-soo, as an infected person, was very stable in his emotions. Compared with the other two infected people, Che Hyun-soo was obviously the best choice.
…………
Late at night, in a remote corner of the underground parking garage, a raging fire was burning, as if in the flames, a human figure could be vaguely seen.
The next day, Xia Shang returned to his room from the underground parking garage. Through last night's gasoline experiment, he had a deeper understanding of the talent of adapting to self-healing.
First of all, it takes a certain amount of time to adapt to damage and evolve a counter-mechanism. Although he has not completely integrated this ability, judging from the performance of the spider monster, even if it is completely integrated, this defect cannot be erased.
Secondly, ordinary damage cannot allow him to evolve a counter-mechanism at all. Due to the integration of Kimiko's self-healing ability, the wound usually heals automatically before he evolves a counter-mechanism, unless it is a broken arm or leg.
But the degree of enhancement of the new arm is quite limited, and it grows slowly. Xia Shang roughly calculated that the effect will be more amazing after an arm is broken hundreds or thousands of times.
Of course, it is not to say that this talent is useless. When Xia Shang's self-healing ability reaches a perverted level, he can regenerate broken limbs or blood in a short time. Maybe then, Xia Shang can achieve his ultimate goal of immortality and unlimited growth.
Therefore, the greatest role of this talent is to become a cornerstone.
Become a cornerstone for the achievement of the ultimate creature.
"Fortunately, last night was not a waste." Xia Shang put on new clothes and stood in front of the mirror. He was burned by gasoline for a night. Although he did not gain the ability to be immune to fire, the heat resistance of his cells was greatly improved.
Xia Shang called out the panel again to check all talents.
[Adaptive self-healing talent fusion, current progress 43%] [Swordsmanship talent, deformation, transfer, radio wave induction, extreme control, carbon super-intelligence, self-healing enhancement (can be fused with adaptive self-healing), laser eyes (blue), gluttony enhancement. 】
These talents seem to be many, but in Xia Shang's opinion, they are far from enough. At least compared with his motherland, his defects are very obvious. Physical fitness, strength, flight, speed, etc., these are his shortcomings.
The few things that can be compared with his motherland are probably only self-healing and defense.
Xia Shang's current defense ability mainly depends on carbon super-intelligence, but carbon super-intelligence is unlikely to be able to block the laser eyes of his motherland.
After tidying up his clothes, Xia Shang returned to the lobby on the first floor and filled his stomach casually.
Then he saw Li Enhe walk into the isolation room.
Soon, he brought Che Xianxiu out. Judging from the expression on Che Xianxiu's face, he should have agreed to Li Enhe's conditions.
Seeing Che Xianxiu go upstairs with Bian Shangyu, Xia Shang did not plan to follow, but turned and walked into an empty room. Because his fusion has not yet ended, he can't use the analysis ability to hunt monsters again.
What's more, he is now facing a big trouble, so how can he care about Che Xianxiu's life or death.
When the door was closed,
A mirror image with dark eyes appeared behind him. He stretched out his hands, covered Xia Shang's eyes, and pulled him into the mirror space.
The mirror space is no different from the outside world. The only abnormality is that it is a little distorted, but if you don't observe carefully, it is difficult to find this subtle difference.
"Is it over?" Xia Shang turned his head with a cold face and looked at his desire mirror image. The growth rate of this desire mirror image was far beyond his imagination. His appearance was no longer under Xia Shang's control.
Unlike the previous mirror image, the intelligence level of this mirror image is obviously much higher.
And the strength is also stronger. It can pull him into the mirror space anytime and anywhere. You know, this is something that cannot be done before the gluttonous desire is completely integrated.
"Kill me." The desire mirror image said with a smile.
"Okay." Xia Shang did not hesitate. His arm turned into a sharp blade and cut it into two pieces.
I saw that the wound of the desire mirror image did not bleed, but extended a black liquid like oil. After entanglement with each other, the two halves of the body were glued together again.
At the same time, a wound spread from Xia Shang's right shoulder to his abdomen, accompanied by piercing pain and gushing red blood.
It was clearly the injury he caused to the mirror image, but it was reflected on his body. How did the other party do it?
Fortunately, his recovery ability was not weak, just when his wound was about to heal.
"What about this?" Mirror Image raised the fruit knife in his hand and stabbed his heart. Poof, black liquid flowed out along the blade and immediately soaked the clothes on his chest. At this time, the corner of Desire Mirror Image's mouth showed Smiling, as if expecting Xia Shang's reaction.
Xia Shang subconsciously looked towards his chest and saw that there was also a stab wound in his heart.
"Damn!" As his heart was destroyed, all the strength in Xia Shang's body continued to leak out like a punctured balloon.
So far, the heart is second only to the brain in importance to Xia Shang.
"Not very good." Xia Shang controlled the cells in his body to quickly fill the gap in the heart. The whole process took about ten seconds.
"Don't be nervous. Your desire is not to die. How could you die so easily?"
The mirror image looked at Xia Shang with a smile, and then twisted the fruit knife stuck on his chest.
In an instant, pain like angina swept through Xia Shang's body. The pain made Xia Shang clenched his fists and his eyes were red and bloodshot. How could this be possible? The other party is just a mirror image, how could it affect him?
Why has this method never been used in the previous image?
The heart that had just been repaired was destroyed again. The feeling of loss of life left Xia Shang with no time to think about it.
Fortunately, he had made preparations, and saw a tentacle drilled out from behind him, and at the top of the tentacle was a fresh heart that had just been created. The heart was beating slightly on the surface, as if it were the same as the real one. There is no difference in the heart.
Watching Xia Shang dig out the damaged heart and then replace it with a new one, seeing the mirror image of this scene, I couldn't help but applaud Xia Shang. "Wonderful, so wonderful, it really opened my eyes."
Xia Shang did not respond to Mirror Image's praise. He was expressionless as he thought about the key to breaking the situation.
Does he have to completely kill the desire in front of him to get out of the mirror space? But the strange ability on the other side seemed to tell him that if he killed the mirror image, he would also die.
"Are you curious as to why I have such an ability? Because I am your desire. Your desire is not to want to die, but my desire is also to not want to die, so I had to bind the two of us, hehe whee."
Mirror Image walked up to Xia Shang and slowly pulled out the fruit knife from his chest.
At present, this seems to be a dead end!
If you crush your desire, you will die. If you don't crush your desire, you will stay in the mirror space forever.
In the room, the fusion panel in front of Xia Shang was quietly fixed in the air. The fusion progress on it was beating at an incredible speed, 43%...55%...63%...
the other side.
Cha Xianxiu proposed to carefully check every layer, because he knew that even if he was fatally injured, he could heal in a short period of time. At this moment, what Li Eunhyuk said before he left came to mind. .
"You are the one about to become a monster and the best person to deal with the monster in the apartment. I hope you will consider the surviving residents of the apartment."
Bian Shangyu didn't object until he saw that every time Cha Xianxiu killed a monster, the blackness in Cha Xianxiu's eyes would become darker.
Because he was worried that he would be completely swallowed by desire, he proposed to go directly to the fourteenth floor to pick up Han Douzhi and others.
Cha Xianxiu agreed on the surface, but when he reached the seventh floor, he stopped in front of a door, pointed at the iron door painted with green paint and said: "I feel there is a monster inside, come and catch the monster, let's do it" Got it.”
At this time, his eyes had changed, and deep black occupied his eyes again.
After saying that, he pushed the door open. At the same time, he turned to look at Bian Shangyu and asked provocatively: "What? Are you scared?"
Bian Shangyu noticed that his mood was not right, and stretched out his hand to pull him back. Looking at the weird smile on this guy's face, Bian Shangyu knew that this guy might have been eroded by desire again.
So he punched Cha Xianxiu in the abdomen. Cha Xianxiu covered his stomach and coughed like a cooked prawn.
It was precisely because of this punch that Cha Xianxiu woke up again. Cha Xianxiu looked at Bian Shangyu blankly, not understanding what just happened.
At this time, there was a sea of fire behind the door, and suddenly a monster's arm protruded from behind the door. The monster grabbed Bian Shangyu and dragged him in.
The monster's arms are extremely long, and its body cannot be seen at all. The long-armed monster was originally an ordinary father, but when his son was captured by the monster, he fell into despair and gave birth to a strong desire. .
If my hands were long enough, could I catch my son's hand? Could my son survive?
It was this desire that eventually led him to become a long-armed monster.
Seeing Byun Sangyu being captured by the monster, Cha Xianxiu also rushed in in order to save people.
But before he could catch up with the monster's arm, he was knocked out by another monster, bang! After Cha Xianxiu rolled around on the ground a few times, he discovered that the monster that knocked him away had extremely long legs and a red light in his heart.
The Scud Monster was once a track and field athlete. In a game, he was surpassed by his best friend. Out of jealousy that his friend had better results than him, he killed his friend and hid his body in the closet.
As the corpse rotted, a stench soon emitted from the closet. The smell of the corpse was unbearable for him, so after turning into a monster, his entire face was noseless. At the same time, his biggest desire was to go faster until he surpassed everyone.
The Scud was quite agile, and just when it was about to pounce on Cha Xianxiu, it was driven away by a bow and arrow shot from behind.
The duo who shoot bows and arrows are named Park Yuri and Anji Seob. The former is a beautiful girl, but suffers from asthma. Because she once worked as a nurse, she knows how to treat and bandage.
The latter is an old man wearing reading glasses. He is the longest resident of the Green Home Apartment. He was once told by a doctor that he had less than half a year left to live, but he has always lived well.
The sea of fire in the corridor was caused by them.
The bows and arrows in their hands have been specially modified so that they will burn once fired.
"Be careful." Seeing Cha Xianxiu covering her shoulders and walking towards her, Park Yuri pointed her bow and arrow at him without hesitation.
The long-armed monster fell in front of her, apparently burned to death, and Byun Shangyu was lying next to the monster. After Pu Yuli squatted down, she reached out and felt his pulse, "He's still alive."
Then several people went to uncle Han Douzhi's home together.
…………
The picture came to Xia Shang's side again.
Of course, he had no idea what happened to Cha Xianxiu. At this moment, he was thinking about how to revive the dead situation in front of him.
"No, since you don't want to die, how could you risk stabbing yourself in the heart? I don't believe you know my abilities, otherwise you wouldn't have shown a surprised expression just now." The corners of Xia Shang's mouth gradually rose, and soon he The loophole in the mirror language was found.
"The reason why you choose to do this means that you understand that you can't kill me in this way. You just want to make me have the desire not to die. I'm right."
Instead, Xia Shang calmly put his hands into his pockets and looked at the mirror with a calm expression.
The expression on the mirror's face did not change. He raised his right hand and pointed the tip of the knife at his temple. "Are you sure? Once this knife is inserted into your head, I don't believe you can still live. Stop pretending, I can." Feel the worry and fear in your heart.”
The mirror image said with a ferocious smile.
"Whatever." Xia Shang looked indifferent, as if he didn't care about his actions.
"Aren't you afraid of death? Hahahaha, no one is not afraid of death. Why are you pretending?"
"Then give it a try." Xia Shang really didn't seem to care. Once such a childish trick is seen through, it means nothing.
He believed in his own judgment.
"Then give it a try!"
Say it! The mirror image suddenly exerted force and inserted the entire blade into its temple!
