Chapter 123 The Day of Doomsday (Twenty-Six)
"The end of the world is finally coming!"
“God really came to save us!”
"I have finally waited for this day..."
…
The endless words, wrapped in everyone's joy, rushed across the street, and the person who ran over to share the news with Qiao Yuan turned around and ran away after speaking, and rejoined the crowd.
Fortunately, Qiao Yuan and his group gradually came back to their senses. Although some of the players on Sun Ji's side regained their attention, most of them were still in a very confused state.
Yu Guo immersed herself in everyone's joy, like a fish swimming into the sea, shaking hands and hugging everyone enthusiastically. Fortunately, her dancing twin ponytails stood out in the crowd, so even if the other person blended into the crowd, she could still see them at a glance.
Song Yanchi subconsciously looked at Qiao Yuan: "Sister..."
Although Sheng Guiye didn't say anything, he subconsciously looked at Qiao Yuan.
Qiao Yuan was not unaware of the two people's gazes on her, but at the moment her attention was on what the other party had just said. She didn't know whether the appearance of this so-called god was a good thing or a bad thing for their mission.
But God appeared, and as a believer in God, it would be unreasonable for Hammos not to show up...
And Sun Ji's voice also sounded at this time: "I didn't expect a god to appear, but this is our best chance to get in touch with Hammos."
Apparently, he thought the same as Joe Yuan, that Hamos was less risky than directly contacting that unknown god.
Sun Ji originally wanted to discuss the kidnapping with Qiao Yuan after telling him about Aqua Wang, but the sudden appearance of this god really disrupted his pace. However, his past experience in the copy allowed him to adjust quickly, and he realized that this was also a good opportunity to meet Hammos as soon as possible.
Looking at these residents immersed in joy, Sun Ji guessed that they probably didn't know much, so he chose to go directly to his own connections.
The security team also has a special building in the base, where some people are usually out on duty. Sun Ji's connections - the deputy captain of the security team has an independent office and likes to sit in the office and be lazy, but because he is smooth in dealing with things and has a good relationship with his subordinates, everyone is willing to share anything with him. Although he sits in the office every day, he knows a lot of news.
When Sun Ji had something to do, he would go directly to the other party's office and he would always find the right person. This time when he went there, the deputy captain was also in the office, but he was sweating profusely and was giving instructions to his subordinates.
Qiao Yuan and others were waiting on the side with Sun Ji, and they heard a lot of content.
It turned out that two hours ago, the captain of the security team suddenly received an order from Hammers, so he rushed over immediately. Two hours later, the captain finally came back and brought the news that God had been summoned. With the notification of other security team members, the news quickly spread throughout the base.
Originally thought that the end of the world would end the moment God descended, but unexpectedly Hammos sent a message again. Because God did not know what was happening in the world, he still needed to communicate with God, so he asked the Son of God, the Holy Daughter and the security team to go over to help.
The vice-captain needs to select the list of team members who will go to God.
The security team doesn't have many people to begin with, and they have to satisfy both God and the base, plus they want to be close to God, so the deputy captain naturally has to carefully select the list, and the list is about to be released, which gives him a headache.
After telling the team members to calm the emotions of the base residents in the next few days, the deputy captain had time to talk to Sun Ji.
The deputy captain was a few years older than Sun Ji. Because they were brothers, he always called Sun Ji "brother", and this time was no exception: "Brother, what's wrong?"
After hearing what the deputy captain had just said, Sun Ji already had an idea of where to ask for help. He wanted the deputy captain to add his name and the names of Qiao Yuan and others to the list.
The deputy captain's tone was obviously hesitant: "This..."
This was obviously Sun Ji's home court, so she just stood quietly in the back row with the other three people, listening to Sun Ji and the vice-captain talking.
As she was listening, Qiao Yuan caught a glimpse of a dark shadow walking towards her.
It was a highly decomposed corpse, with some parts looking as if they had been torn by wild beasts. The skin on the upper half of the face had been completely peeled off, while the skin on the lower half of the face hung on the face like a veil, swaying as it walked.
The other party walked towards Qiao Yuan as if no one was around.
When she saw that no one else reacted, Qiao Yuan guessed that it was most likely her illusion, but when she thought that there was a small chance that the person was infected and only she could see him, she had to divert her attention.
The highly decomposed corpse was moving very slowly. Just as it was about to reach Qiao Yuan , its figure suddenly overlapped with Sheng Guiye who was standing not far from her.
At this time, Sheng Guiye suddenly walked towards her.
Qiao Yuan's pupils suddenly shrank, and she subconsciously avoided Sheng Guiye when he walked towards her, but she soon found out that Sheng Guiye was just going to get water from the water dispenser nearby.
Qiao Yuan and Sun Ji had been outside for quite some time, and the latter had darkened several degrees in two days because they had been looking for clues outside. Therefore, some of his players who were really thirsty slipped to the water dispenser nearby and drank water with paper cups, and Sheng Guiye followed their example.
Qiao Yuan heaved a sigh of relief after realizing that Sheng Guiye had simply passed by him and was not walking towards him because he was possessed by an infected person.
Qiao Yuan also noticed that Sheng Guiye seemed to have noticed her evasion just now. Thinking that she might be targeted and her unity would be affected, she wanted to explain, but soon found that Sheng Guiye did not take it to heart. He just glanced at her and then looked away. He walked straight to the water dispenser and picked up the water cup.
This saves Qiao Yuan the trouble of explaining.
Just then, Qiao Yuan heard his name.
She looked up and saw that it was Sun Ji who had already discussed with the deputy captain and came back.
After some discussion, the deputy captain finally agreed to arrange for Sun Ji to bring a few people to join the list, including Qiao Yuan.
Because of the limited places, Sun Ji did not bring any newbies with him this time.
On the other side, in front of the water dispenser, several of Sun Ji's men also recognized Sheng Guiye. Sheng Guiye was still wearing a suit, and with his status as the CEO, the men felt like they were chatting in the tea room, but their boss barged in. The voices that were originally whispering stopped, and their eyes subconsciously fell on Sheng Guiye, nervously watching his every move.
But soon they discovered that Sheng Guiye was standing motionless in front of the water dispenser, holding the cup of water. He was staring at the water dispenser with a frown on his face, as if he was lost in thought.
A player who was trying to figure out his leader's thoughts had a reaction and said subconsciously, "Press the left button for cold water and the right button for hot water."
That's right, he saw at a glance that Sheng Guiye didn't know how to use the water dispenser, but he chose to speak with high emotional intelligence and gave a tactful reminder, which in the real world was enough to warm the leader's heart for the whole day.
However, Sheng Guiye was obviously not warmed by the warmth and directly crushed the paper cup.
After promising not to bring shame to the deputy captain and not to betray him if anything went wrong, Sun Ji and the others were let go by the deputy captain. They would gather here at 1 a.m. tomorrow and go there under the leadership of the captain.
After finishing a series of tasks, it was already evening when they walked out of the security team building.
Thinking that they had to gather at 1 a.m. the next day, Sun Ji didn't say much this time. He asked the players who were going with him to go back and rest early and arrive on time the next day.
"It's one in the morning, I must be very sleepy by then." On the way back, Yu Guo sighed as if worried , and then turned to look at Qiao Yuan: "Can I lean on you and walk? I'm not heavy."
"Shit?!" Song Yanchi was furious when he heard Yu Guo's words. He said directly, "Human ancestors evolved two legs so that you can walk independently."
In front of Song Yanchi, Yu Guo leaned on Qiao Yuan's shoulder and looked at Song Yanchi with a provocative look in his eyes: "But humans have also evolved two shoulders, aren't they for people to lean on?"
Song Yanchi and Yu Guo are on the verge of rewriting the theory of evolution, but Qiao Yuan's attention is on another matter, so he has no time to take care of them for the time being.
Qiao Yuan was still thinking about the impact of the hallucination on her.
Her cherishment of life made it impossible for her to ignore the presence of the infected, even if it was an illusion, and this obviously affected her. In the morning, she almost broke her hand, and in the afternoon, she almost confused the highly decomposed corpse with Sheng Guiye. She missed the conversation between Sun Ji and the deputy captain, and didn't even hear what the two discussed in detail.
Fortunately, the content of the latter was not important, otherwise she would have missed something again.
Qiao Yuan knew that she had to find a way to adjust herself, otherwise it would definitely affect her ability to pass the copy.
After all, according to the symptoms of aqua regia described by Sun Ji, Qiao Yuan felt that the hallucinations would become more and more serious in the end, until everyone was infected in her eyes, and when the real infected people mixed in, she would not be able to tell them apart.
In fact, she felt that she already had such signs, and the progress was even much faster than that of Aqua Regia.
Just when she glanced at Song Yanchi, the other person looked like a human head in her eyes, with the body of a mantis below the neck, and the sharp sickle seemed to be swung towards her and cut off her head in the next second.
Looking to the right, only Yu Guo's head was still resting on her shoulder, while his neck and body remained in place.
But after a blink of an eye, Song Yanchi and Yu Guo returned to normal.
The most fundamental solution is naturally to find the instigator and let him solve the problem, but considering that it is most likely a shadow or something else, the possibility of implementing it is currently zero.
Even if she told the other three, they would not be able to help her, after all, only she could see this hallucination.
She chose to self-regulate.
Qiao Yuan knew that hallucinations were reactions exerted by the human brain. Her brain was being subtly instilled with the idea that there were infected people everywhere in this base. In order to avoid being unable to distinguish between humans and infected people, she needed to mark these people in advance.
Self-hypnosis is not a difficult thing for Qiao Yuan, it just takes time.
