Chapter 185 Son of Dusk!
"'Son of God Project', 'God Creation Project', 'Human Ascension Project'. Are the Dusk and the Son of Dusk outside the product of the 'Human Ascension Project'?"
Colin glanced back and forth at the suicide note, and gained a preliminary understanding of the situation in this world.
Although I don't know the specific content of the "Human Upgrading Plan", judging from the outside world, this plan is likely to have failed...
Large numbers of humans have been transformed into horrific creatures that walk in the dusk.
"The Human Future Research Institute. From what he said, it seems that many disasters in this world come from this institute. But, could he be talking about that shelter?"
Colin raised his hand and touched his chin, thinking deeply, and secretly took note of these things.
At this time, Qin Chuan on the side said: "If this body died within a week, it means that there are indeed survivors in this place, and it seems that his death here is not accidental. Those survivors may come to find him by then."
"You mean, guarding here?" Colin was thinking about other things, so he asked casually when he heard the voice.
Qin Chuan shrugged: "Well, firstly, we don't know where Tianlong Bay is, and secondly, those 'Sons of Dusk' won't come in here for some reason, so we can try to wait here. The note is not lost, which means we must have arrived here first.
"And it says here is Shelter 24. Maybe we can find something in this shelter."
After he finished speaking, the others nodded in agreement.
Colin didn't object, but he still reminded: "It's better to confirm the situation here and find out why the 'Son of Dusk' doesn't come in."
If it was half a month ago, Colin might have thought this was a "safe zone".
But now, before he went too deep, he could roughly feel that the only thing that could make the "Son of Twilight" afraid was probably something else of the same level.
To be honest, this place is not necessarily better than outside...
The reason why that group of people dared to come in here is most likely because they knew the rules. As long as they understand the rules, nothing will happen.
"Well, let's do it layer by layer. Let's start with this."
The crowd did not reject Colin's proposal and immediately continued to act. Afterwards, they found traces of past battles in this large area.
And judging from some hand prints that were clearly left by the "Sons of Twilight", the "Sons of Twilight" would have killed us at that time.
But for some reason, they will no longer set foot in this "Shelter No. 24".
Later, during their continued exploration, they found four hanged bodies.
These bodies were similar to the one just found. There was a piece of cloth tied to the right hand with the geographical coordinates of a certain place on it, and there was a suicide note in one of the pockets on the body.
The contents of the suicide notes varied, but they all expressed resentment towards an organization called the "Human Future Research Institute."
Some were as violent as the previous one , while others denounced them as traitors.
"Do we have such a research institute over there?"
After searching the first floor, Colin couldn't help but ask, if such a cancer existed, it must be destroyed quickly!
“I don’t think so…”
The one who answered was Qin Chuan. He thought for a moment and said, "There are only five related research institutes in China, using the numerical codes 12345. I'm not sure about , but famous ones such as the 'Eternal Life Society', the 'Astrophysical Research Institute', and the 'Golden Dawn' don't seem to be among them..."
“Whether it came out later or was renamed, we must take this thing seriously.” The extraordinary person who was suspected to be “fortune-telling” spoke.
Judging from the messages left on the bodies of survivors after disasters, many disasters in this world are related to them.
At this time, Xia Liufang said: "Although there is no identical research institute , there are some similar projects for the research of certain terrifying creatures or things..."
This is not really a secret and you will find out once you join for a short while.
After all, it is an indisputable fact that the three official paths and even all the extraordinary things in the world originate from the study of superhuman things.
"There's no need to be so fussy. Just report the situation truthfully when you return. It's not our turn to decide how the decision is made..."
"I have a question, can I ask it?"
At this time, the burned man, who had been silent all this time, interrupted everyone and continued speaking after getting a signal:
"Why hide these crises? Isn't it better to let everyone face them together?"
Hearing his words, Colin, who was sitting on a mechanical dog, also pricked up his ears quietly. He was also very curious about this.
“This…”
Qin Chuan was not surprised by this question. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Because someone has done an experiment. Once people in a certain area have an understanding of abnormalities, the number of abnormal events in that area will increase rapidly. The probability is ten to a thousand times higher than before."
"A thousand times?" Colin was shocked.
Isn't the difference between your upper and lower ranges a bit too big?
"Yes, we were lucky. The abnormal incidents we encountered were all simple ones that could be solved quickly, so everything could be saved. If we ran into a big problem right from the start, the entire area might be out of control."
"According to those experts, human cognition is one of the cornerstones of maintaining the region's 'reality index'."
"Our world may not be as materialistic as we think... Do you have any other questions?"
Qin Chuan explained that these were all basic knowledge, so he didn't want to hide it.
“That’s all.” The burned man shook his head, thinking of the contents of the suicide notes, and added, “It’s enough to know that it wasn’t concealed on purpose.”
"Well, I know you are confused, but trust us, we will definitely not do anything to betray humanity."
Qin Chuan nodded and said, "Then let's continue investigating. Let's go up to the second floor and take a look."
Not long after, they arrived at the second floor and checked carefully, but it was the same as the first floor, with no abnormalities except that there were no corpses.
After that, we investigated for nearly two hours, but we still didn't find anything wrong on the third, fourth, and fifth floors.
This gave them some relief.
"There is only an underground area left. I've just looked at the guide map. This mall has nine floors in total, five above ground and four underground. The original shelter should be on the bottom floor. Do we still need to go down?" Qin Chuan asked.
It’s better not to go... Colin was about to speak, but suddenly he felt his heart sink, and then he felt a terrible sense of oppression.
Not only him, but everyone present felt a strong pressure coming.
The direction from which this pressure came was extremely clear...
Moreover, one could faintly hear unusually heavy "footsteps" vibrating in the air.
Colin and others turned their heads and looked through the window, seeing an extremely horrifying scene.
Several kilometers away, next to a slender tower building that was estimated to be about 600 meters high, a dusk giant appeared at some point, which was about five or six times taller than the tower and most likely more than 3,000 meters tall.
It has no lower body and uses its huge hands to support the ground, walking slowly among the tall buildings in Mea City.
Above its head, an ochre-colored ring was constantly emitting a dusk glow like the setting sun.
It was at this moment that Colin and others felt a strong sense of fatigue and exhaustion erupting from their hearts.
