Not long after leaving the interrogation room, Feng Bujue saw a fork in the road before their eyes.
This is an intersection, there is no sign or any visible reminder.
Whether looking to the left, right, or forward, it is the same corridor.
If this was a script of normal difficulty, Feng Bujue would definitely think of a way to trick Igor into splitting up with him at this moment to expand the search range and increase efficiency.
However, this is a nightmare book... and Brother Jue has already seen the intensity of the monsters in this script.
In all fairness, given his current physical condition, even if he encounters monsters under Igor's protection, he may not be able to survive... let alone act alone.
Furthermore, according to Igor's character of being extremely afraid of supernatural things, he might not agree to part ways with Brother Jue.
Therefore, Feng Bujue simply pointed forward, signaling the other party to continue leading the way.
In this way, the two walked for a while, and along the way... passed four rooms one after another.
The metal doors of these four rooms are all tightly closed, and there is no sign on the door of the room. Although Brother Jue could stop picking the lock at any time, he didn't do that; based on his previous experience in the statue room, he thought he should see something related to the main story before making a fuss.
"It's weird..." After the four rooms were left behind, Feng Bujue couldn't help thinking, "How big is this script? To walk such a long distance... There are no plot clues, no puzzles, no monsters, and the current So far, all the corridors, rooms... have not been marked, can everyone who works in this underground laboratory have a map of the entire base printed in their minds?"
Indeed, this does not seem normal...
Although the practice of "no signage" can be used to confuse foreign enemies when they invade, but making the scenery of each section of the corridor so similar...it is a bit outrageous.
Except for Feng Bujue, who can pull out maps in his head and see different locations through the textures on the walls, for most normal people... this place is a maze; basically, you just need to walk At an intersection, I closed my eyes and turned around a few times before opening them again. Immediately I couldn’t tell where I came from…
Under such a layout, not only the intruders will be very troubled, but even the daily work of the internal staff will be affected, which is undoubtedly very unreasonable.
"Eh? Crazy brother. It's time for you to change your blood bag." Igor's reminder brought Feng Bujue back from his thoughts.
"Huh? Oh..." Feng Bujue looked up, indeed, the third pack of blood was almost finished.
So, the two stopped. Prepare to put on the fourth and final pack of blood.
"Igor, I want to ask you something." Feng Bujue said when he was about to get the needle.
"What's the matter?" Igor continued.
"When you were sent to this base, was it like this here?" Feng Bujue asked, "Also. Do you remember the route out? Or do you know where to find a map or something like that?"
Igor shook his head: "I don't know any of this... I was carried in with my head covered." He read thoughtfully, "My last memory outside... was being carried in by a few soldiers (soldiers) I was lifted into a car. As soon as I got in the car, I was put on a hood, and when the hood was taken off... I was already lying in this base."
This answer was not unexpected, and Feng Bujue only asked it with the mentality of giving it a try.
"Understood..." When Brother Jue responded, the blood bag was changed, "Okay, then let's go..." He raised his eyes and looked in the corridor ahead, "Anyway, keep going forward, even if you can't find the exit , you can also find all…”
He couldn't finish his sentence. Because the scene in front of him made him hold back the last word.
At this moment, Feng Bujue saw a humanoid creature that looked like a mummy... walking towards them from tens of meters ahead.
"Hehehehe..." The monster also saw Brother Jue for the first time, and let out a strange dry laugh.
When the laughter came, Igor turned his head to look, and was immediately surprised: "Ah! Mo... Momo..."
He was so frightened that he stuttered and couldn't even utter a whole sentence.
"Don't panic, it can't see you." Feng Bujue remained calm, and quickly said to Igor, "Anyway, it must be coming towards me. When it gets close, try to chop off its head. .”
actually. Brother Jue doesn't know if the method of beheading is useful, but judging from his years of fighting experience with various demons and ghosts... the probability of success of this method is relatively high.
Tap, tap. blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
The monster took a few steps first, then gradually accelerated, turning into a full run.
You can tell from the sound of footsteps that it is wearing shoes; look at its upper body... there are still some broken clothes, so it must not be the "barefoot brother" that Brother Jue and the others have encountered before. But...the two look unmistakably the same breed.
"Hee...hahahaha..." While rushing towards Feng Bujue, the monster laughed almost maniacally. The laughter is incomparable, and combined with its terrifying appearance, even under the light, it looks extremely terrifying.
Ten meters, seven meters, three meters...
The monster's speed was faster than ordinary people, and Feng Bujue also knew that he was unlikely to escape the opponent's attack just by visual inspection.
But... He still held his breath.
It wasn't until the other party approached within two meters that Brother Jue yelled, "Igor!"
This roar brought Igor, who was in shock and stupefied, to his senses in an instant. After the reaction time of 0.01 second, Igor instinctively and without thinking, acted according to Feng Bujue's previous instructions!
call-
The rough arm and the sharp chopping knife whirled with the sound of wind.
Consistent with Feng Bujue's conjecture... The monster really "couldn't see" Igor, so when the blade struck, it was too late for it to dodge.
Click—
But see, Igor raised his knife and fell, the physical fitness of this VNO-9 strengthened person is by no means inferior to that of a monster.
Where the blade passes... the skin is split, the flesh is bruised, the bone is broken, and the tendons are broken.
The monster's head was chopped off with a single knife, but not a single drop of blood flowed. It felt like cutting a piece of meat out of the freezer.
"Ah—" After its head left its body, it actually let out a scream.
This sound definitely did not come from the throat, even the throat was broken, it is absolutely impossible to make such a loud noise; if there is no accident, it should be something similar to a "spiritual body", borrowing the mouth of the deceased vocalize.
"I'm calling you a head!" In the next second, Feng Bujue raised one hand and grabbed the head that flew towards him due to inertia. And with a voice a little bit louder than the opponent, he roared wildly at the monster's face.
At that second, even the monster was stunned, it didn't expect that the other party would come to pick its head. I didn't expect that the other party would dare to talk to me after catching it, and what I didn't expect was... the kid in front of me had such a rude attitude.
"Say!" Feng Bujue lifted the monster's head, looked closely at it and asked, "What are you?"
"Hehehe..." The monster didn't answer, but looked at Brother Jue with a mocking look. And let out a sinister and strange laugh.
Faced with this response, Feng Bujue was silent for two seconds, and then said in a very indifferent tone: "I'll give you one more chance, put away your lewd smile immediately, and answer my question carefully, or you will bear the consequences."
"Hehehe..." However, the monster put on a posture that a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, and laughed even more arrogantly, "Hehehe... Hahahahaha! Haha..."
puff-
His laughter was interrupted by a muffled sound.
That was Feng Bujue grabbing its head. The sound of slamming its face against a wall.
"Uh—" After being smashed, the monster let out a muffled groan, and then, he seemed to be finally planning to say something, "You...how dare..."
puff-
But Feng Bujue didn't seem to intend to let him talk properly.
"Huh? What are you talking about?"
Puff puff-
"The obscene laughter is too loud, I can't hear you~"
puff-
Brother Jue said similar dialogues in a lazy tone, while hitting the other person's face against the wall again and again.
This monster was in a skinny state. After being treated like this, the skin on his face was almost worn away, and the bridge of his nose was also broken.
"Uh... Crazy... Crazy brother..." Igor was stunned for a while. Then he said, "You're like this... it can't speak?"
"Oh?" Brother Jue heard the words, put on a look of sudden realization, and raised the head in front of him again. Looking at the monster's battered face, he said, "Really?"
The monster's mouth was crooked, and he read viciously: "Little... kid... you... you..."
puff-
Before he finished speaking, Brother Jue pointed it at the wall again: "When you address me, be respectful."
After saying and bumping, he immediately put his head back in front of him.
but. The monster still had a backbone: "Don't think... I will be subdued if you do this..."
Puff—puff puff puff—
"I can play like this for a whole day." Feng Bujue said so, and greeted the other party five or six times.
This time, when he brought the monster's head back to his face, the latter's face was almost unrecognizable.
"Brother, if you have any questions, I will tell you everything..." It seems that those few blows just now broke the monster's backbone and integrity.
"Hmm..." Feng Bujue nodded in satisfaction, and said, "Let me tell you who you are first."
"I... we... are you..." The monster replied—[We are the madness hidden in your body, eager to break free from the cage of reason all the time, we are the darkness you hide from when you curl up in bed every night, when You hide in those safe havens that we cannot set foot in, and we lie dormant in silence and weakness...]
This passage was a special voice, and when the dialogue sounded, Feng Bujue entered a state as if he was watching a CG.
And when the whole passage was finished, the scene in front of Brother Jue suddenly changed, and in the blink of an eye, he had actually arrived... in the palace of his own thinking.
Memories float in the air like halos, and thoughts shroud this vast space like mist.
At this moment, time freezes.
Six figures gathered together.
Five of them stood each other in a circle; in the circle... was a two-meter-high, birdcage-shaped cage; and in that cage stood a sixth person.
"Although I don't know why I came in at this moment, but since I'm here, I might as well ask..." the first Feng Bujue said.
"You heard what that guy said just now." The second Feng Bujue continued, "I always feel... deja vu."
"I used to think that there were only five people here. It wasn't until I came into contact with Thriller Paradise and gained the ability to enter the 'Palace of Concrete Thinking' that I discovered...there is a sixth person." Said the third person, Feng Bujue .
"Before that, I always believed...that cage was the seal imposed by Woody." The fourth Feng Bujue looked at the human being in the cage and said, "And you are my fear of being sealed."
"Until just now, I heard those words." The fifth Feng Bujue said again, "It made me realize that maybe...that cage...was there from the beginning."
The five people said their own words and were silent for a few seconds, then...
"Who are you?"
"Who are you?"
"Who are you?"
"Who are you?"
"Who are you?"
They looked at the cage almost at the same second, and asked the same question in five slightly different tones.
"Heh..." After a while, the man in the cage sneered, "Why do you question yourself?"
He answered their questions with questions.
"We are alone." Two seconds later, the man in the cage said again, "From the beginning, there was no secret between us. Because... all the answers are in this palace."
At this point, he reached into his jacket pocket and took out a key from it.
Seeing this, the five people outside the cage subconsciously put their hands into their pockets.
At this moment, every Feng Bujue found... In his pocket, he also had a key.
"This cage has indeed existed from the very beginning." The man in the cage said, "Because...we want it to exist."
"Because you don't want to come out?" the first Feng Bujue asked.
The man in the cage replied: "But, I did come out."
"I know." The second Feng Bujue said, "You came out the day you covered up the scene for Xiaotan."
"The day you first came into contact with Gambling Emperor Zhai, you came out." The third Feng Bujue said.
"You came out during the battle for the cloak," said the fourth Feng Bujue.
"And..." Finally, the fifth Feng Bujue continued, "The day Ruoyu left...you also came out."
"Because... from the beginning to the end, I can appear at any time according to my own will." The man in the cage took over their conversation and said, "Ordinary people will try their best to make the self in the cage never come out." Speaking of this, He spread his hands and smiled evilly, "But we are not ordinary people, we... are Feng Bujue." (.)
