Seeing that the crew's angry shouts had reached outside, Bandaged pressed his hands against the wall.
The vines quickly formed a web and began to grow thicker rapidly, thus blocking everyone outside.
"Captain, this is not a solution. We need to find the real reason why they are being dealt with." Bandage reminded.
"Of course I know. The problem is that if I knew what caused this situation, I would find a way to solve it. And this ability is so abnormal that even Anna can't escape his control."
Just then the wooden wall began to get slightly hot, and the air was filled with a thick smell of smoke; they were burning something.
Nico couldn't help cursing, "What a bunch of psychos! How dare they set fire to the cabin! Are they tired of living? This place is not far from the weapons bay."
Bandage raised his hands again and pressed them against the wall to make it thicker, but Charles knew that this would only be a temporary solution and they had to leave first.
"Let's go, we can't stay here any longer!" Charles said as he turned into a huge bat monster, grabbed the two of them and quickly disappeared into the cabin.
When they appeared again, they were already next to the Narwhal. Before the people on the deck could attack, Charles and the other two quickly dived into the darkness.
The situation is a bit awkward now. After seeing Charles transform the two people into normal people, the others on the ship will definitely be on guard.
Now Charles had two people on him and could not move freely as before.
"It seems that asking them to change them back one by one won't work. Do you have any solution for this situation?"
"Captain, I think... we should still start from the source... When did we become... maybe we can work backwards... and look for clues."
"Counterattack? Let me think about it first." Charles quickly recalled the times when all of them behaved abnormally.
It started on the meteorite island. After coming into contact with the Foundation there, the crew began to behave abnormally.
Originally, according to the plan, no matter what the negotiations with the Foundation were like, they would head to the base below, but when the Narwhal left that ship, it flew upwards strangely, and it was an order he gave personally.
The source of all this was on that island, but after Charles thought quickly, he found that there was nothing unusual in his memory.
Just as Charles was searching his memory, he suddenly froze.
Suddenly, something flashed through his mind, and it seemed to be very important to the current situation, but the more he thought about it, the more he couldn't remember it.
It felt like a name on the tip of my tongue, I wanted to say it but couldn't.
"What on earth is this? What clue is there in my brain? Is there something I've overlooked before?"
Seeing that Charles was thinking, the two people on his back did not dare to disturb him and waited quietly.
After pondering for half an hour, Charles suddenly thought of something, and in ecstasy, his body quickly shrank back, and the moment he turned into a human form, he reached into his arms and took out the diary.
He remembered! What just flashed through his mind was the diary he had written. At the time, he was brainwashed and didn't pay any attention to it. He just glanced at it casually.
But the above content seems to be related to the current situation.
Charles lifted it up and threw it upwards, then immediately turned into a bat, flapped his fleshy wings hard, and easily caught it.
The bandage crawling on his back climbed up, took out the diary with his hands, and quickly flipped through it.
Nico took out a lighter to illuminate the room, flipped through a few pages while sitting on the bandage on his back, and raised his head directly, "Captain, I don't understand."
Charles then realized that even what was written in his diary was in Chinese, which Bandage could not understand at all.
"Well, open the diary and put it in front of me, and I'll take a look."
When the bandage did what he wanted, Charles immediately saw what was written in the diary.
October 1, 809
We are heading to the location of 005-3 to perform the ceremony. Although the ship is a bit crowded, there is no problem with the material.
"Turn it again, this page is useless."
October 3, 809
It was calmer outside than I thought. Perhaps because the Foundation had explored it before, we didn't encounter any attacks along the way.
"Turn it over again!"
October 7, 809
Oh my god, I was actually controlled by 005-3. How did he do it? And his control doesn't seem to be affected by distance. Oh no! Anna was also affected by this before, so I must trouble to solve this big problem in her current situation.
Today is October 7th, but this is not the last page in the diary. The diary itself has written down the diary of tomorrow.
October 8, 809
I was dead. The crew somehow found my position in the air and had Lily sneak attack me with the deck gun.
When I was seriously injured and dragged to the center of the magic circle to be executed, I saw black things drill into my body. The black dots looked like fireflies.
It was not until this moment that I understood where these things came from. They were the tiny black bugs that crawled out of the Foundation's space suits, and they had been controlling us all along.
Bugs!? Black fireflies
Charles immediately recalled everything that had happened before and subconsciously lowered his head to look at his body. Only then did he discover some small black spots hiding among his hair, which would be impossible to find without careful searching.
Charles stopped flapping his wings, and using the free fall of his body, he stretched out his hands to try to pick out those black dots that were not much smaller than ants, but he soon discovered that they seemed to have no substance and passed right through them.
Charles used his sharp claws to tear off the piece of flesh, and the black bugs followed the flesh away from Charles' body.
"It works!" Charles saw hope of overcoming this crisis. As long as all the hidden black on the Narwhal was thrown away, the brainwashing crisis could be resolved.
However, before that, experiments must be carried out first. It would be very dangerous if we go there rashly and make a mistake.
Charles immediately told the two people on his back about his discovery. Nico's face was immediately filled with joy, and he held up a lighter to look for the black spots on the three people.
After the three men cleaned their bodies carefully, Nico carefully pulled out the black thorn from his hand.
