"What the hell is that monster? Ordinary bullets can't kill it! Its healing ability is like a sci-fi movie! I need your explanation, Mr. Song! Did Juli Group cross the line and create this creature?" What is the 'Ring of the Nibelung' project?"
Song Zhi closed his eyes, thought for a few seconds, and said, "Are you sure you want to know? Although the truth exists objectively, it will not affect your life even if you don't know the truth. But once you know it, He fell from the brink of hell into hell."
Zhou Yu smiled. He pointed to the huge wound on his abdomen. In his mind was the tragic picture of Chen Chong being killed by a monster: "Mr. Song, I have been to hell."
"Trust me, you're still far from hell. You've only glimpsed a shadow." Song Zhi's face was filled with an unfathomable expression.
This is also what Zhou Yu hates most about those scholars, and always thinks he knows everything.
It seems that even his Zhou Yu's fate has been figured out.
"You asked me on the surface if you were sure you wanted to know, but you were ready to tell me, weren't you?" Zhou Yu asked back.
Song Zhi turned his face away and laughed.
This guy is very fair, he should stay in the research institute all the year round and is rarely exposed to sunlight, and he doesn't seem to exercise much, and he looks thin. But when he has no expression, he appears aloof and indifferent, and when he smiles, there is a temperament that combines elites and elegance.
"Yes, I want to tell you. First of all, the monster you saw, we call it 'Pelidon', a monster in Western mythology. You should have noticed that this monster has no eyes, No ears, no nose, and ferocious nature."
"So it doesn't have sight, hearing or smell. So how does it identify its target?"
This is a question that has always puzzled Zhou Yu.
Song Zhi raised his chin: "You know that there are many creatures in this world, and the way they locate their prey is different from that of humans. For example, bats use 'ultrasound' to judge their prey. Another example is dolphins, echolocation. And the platypus, electronic targeting. And the kind of monster you see, it hunts based on the 'fear' of its prey. The more fear you have, the more destructive potential you can activate."
Zhou Yu was stunned. What Song Zhi said was completely beyond his comprehension.
"You mean fear?"
"When any animal, including humans, has the emotion of fear, the brain will secrete a special hormone, which is released into the air through the skin of the human body. Once the 'Pelidon' tongue feels this hormone , will chase the prey away. That's why those researchers will die, they know too much about the characteristics and ferocity of 'Pelidon', the more they tell themselves not to be afraid, the more they are afraid. When this fear spreads infinitely , they've pushed themselves to hell."
Zhou Yu looked at Song Zhi suspiciously.
"Think about it carefully. Why are all your teammates dead? But you are not?" Song Zhi held his chin and looked at Zhou Yu meaningfully.
He seems to be very patient, and he has enough time to wait for Zhou Yu to sort out the problem.
Zhou Yu closed his eyes and imagined the voices of his teammates in the contactor.
"what is this?"
"My God! How is this possible?"
"Impossible! It's impossible! How can there be such a thing!"
It was a fear of disbelief and imminent death.
Unlike Zhou Yu, they originally entered with the purpose of rescuing the hostages, but they encountered a monster they had never seen before. Since the monster attacked Zhao Cheng, the most inexperienced among them, everyone was shaken. They had seen the horror of this monster, not to mention that bullets could not kill it at all. Once the slightest fear appeared , the monsters will chase after them and kill everyone.
When Zhou Yu met Chen Chong who still had his last breath, it was not Zhou Yu that really attracted the monster, but Chen Chong's fear. Even that monster would kill Chen Chong without finding Zhou Yu at all, until the trace hormone caused by fear disappeared.
"It doesn't seem to feel where I am?" Zhou Yu asked Song Zhi suspiciously.
Obviously, when Zhou Yu shot its tail, it was agile enough to avoid the bullet and killed Zhou Yu, but it seemed to have lost its direction and didn't know where Zhou Yu was.
Song Zhi smiled lightly, stretched out his arm, and pointed his finger on Zhou Yu's chest: "Ask yourself, have you ever been afraid of it? Are you afraid of being tortured by it and killed by it? You watched your teammates shattered. Is it anger and the obsession with knowing the truth, or fear?”
"I want to find it. I want to kill it." Zhou Yu raised his eyes, and the firmness in his eyes made Song Zhi's smile more obvious.
"Look, that's why you can live and kill it. The look in your eyes tells me that you accept the explanation I gave you. It's a good thing, and if you can't accept that, I'll tell you next. things will be more difficult for you to understand.”
Zhou Yu was silent.
"The second point I want to make," Song Zhi stretched out his finger, "this kind of monster, Peridon, was not cultivated or created by us, nor was it the product of human beings' paranoid pursuit, but it already existed. ."
After Song Zhi finished speaking, Zhou Yu was really stunned.
"It already exists? Are you trying to convince me that the Juli Group has discovered some kind of new creature on Earth?"
Zhou Yu felt that Song Zhi was getting more and more ridiculous.
"Do you know the concept of parallel space?" Song Zhi asked.
"Saw it in the movies. So now you want me to believe that this monster came from another parallel dimension? That's a panacea!"
Although this explanation seems to be made up, what Zhou Yu saw in Song Zhi's eyes was a certainty, at least in Song Zhi's heart, what he said was true.
"That parallel space is called 'Nibelungen' by us, although this name is very ungrounded, I personally prefer to name it with systematic letters, such as Alpha or Beta, even A world, B world, also It's better than Nordic mythology, but there is no way, the board of directors of Juli Group likes this name. Zhou Yu, many years ago, scientists thought that gravitational waves were just a concept or even non-existent, but now it has been confirmed The development of the world is to prove again and again what we thought could not exist. And the existence of Nibelungen is the same.”
Zhou Yu leaned back with the expression listening to the story: "So what's in this world?"
His reason tells him that such a world does not exist, and it must be an excuse made up by the Juli Group to cover up his research purpose, but the intuition deep in his heart keeps echoing: That's true, Zhou Yu. That is true.
"It's close to Earth, but it has a very different biological system."
"Did you bring the monsters from that world?" Zhou Yu would not ask the other party what the so-called "disparate biological system" is, because this is a very big and very professional question.
"Yes. Doing any research there is very risky and our researchers are always at risk. So we brought some research bodies here to continue our research in an environment that we know and that we can control. "
That is to say, the Juli Group has already sent a research team to that world. Since it can do this, it means that the Juli Group has mastered the method of crossing the two worlds.
"When you brought that monster to our world, you also brought risks. Take 10,000 steps back, even if you can control the world, but there are some things that don't belong to this world, you still can't control it. "Zhou Yu's voice became icy cold.
In his heart, these lunatics are doing everything they can to pursue the answers they want.
"Have you seen the healing ability of that monster? Also seen its special biological structure? Studying them can help human beings resist and even overcome many diseases, even if this disease comes from us. For example, Huntington's disease, two Trisomy 11, etc., and even other malignant cancers, can be cured. We humans can even overcome other consequences of environmental degradation and continue to reproduce.”
"Sounds great." Zhou Yu knew that every scholar who carried out crazy research would give himself a high-sounding reason, "Mr. Song, I believe that your exploration of other dimensions is absolutely confidential. But now you are telling this secret. I, it shouldn't be for popular science. Why don't you tell me your real purpose."
Song Zhi smiled, he lowered his head slightly, and looked like he was thinking: "There are many people who have seen Paleyton, whether they are researchers or teams trained by our Juli Group to perform special tasks, they cannot do it. To be like you, let go of fear and look directly at death. In that world, fear is the mark that we are hunted. But almost everyone has this mark on them. Although we have done countless studies and created various Equipment to hide the marks on our body, but fear is always objective. You are special, Zhou Yu. You are the first person I have met who has faced Pelidon without fear at all. I hope you will join us and go to another place. side of the world."
This answer surprised Zhou Yu. He did not expect that he would have such value to Juli Group.
