Volume 9: Star Cave Chapter 10 Where are you going?
Yu Hui could clearly feel that his brain was being eaten away. His own thoughts and cognition were turning into some kind of abstract existence, becoming food for the monster in front of him.
It is precisely because of this erosion that Yuhui's mind has become more active than ever before.
"That fierce voice is still a trap. Once I let go of my perception, the ability to kill people will find me again."
"This seems to be very similar to the pollution of "Criticality", the distortion of inspiration, so are we facing a demon this time?"
The only alien demons that Earthlings are relatively familiar with are the wild spirits, and the rarer ones are the colorful spirits. After all, the anti-extra-dimensional colonization organization used the pollution of the colorful spirits to make bombs.
As for other strange demons, they were not very clear.
"But who exactly is that strange roommate?" Yu Hui's active mind was stunned for a moment, and then he became more concerned about this.
He and the strange roommate confronted each other for such a long time, but nothing happened.
In other words, it was this confrontation that allowed him to half free himself from this dark power trap.
Unfortunately, he didn't think it through and was attracted by the noise outside and saw the dark shadow outside the window.
The next moment, Yuhui seemed to recall something, and a little bit of memory bloomed from his mind.
"Lu Bai!!"
The memory of Lu Bai flashed back instantly, and during the flashback, the memory became abstracted and absorbed by the darkness.
And in the process of abstraction, those memories quickly turned into bronze green rust.
A deafening bell rang the next moment.
The darkness that was devouring the abstraction was shaken by the sound, and its black body scattered.
At this moment, all the darkness followed a certain hole and went deep into another dimension.
At the same time, at the door of Room 7 next to it, a dark shadow was running quickly towards the space station barrier on the side.
As he ran, his figure became more and more abstract, as if it was about to turn into the dark mass it was before.
However, just around the corner, Lu Bai, with a strange smile on his face, held the jade-like bone and stabbed it into his body.
A thorn in the flesh, a floating jade!
The black shadow trembled, and its body was forced to disperse, turning into darkness and quickly passing through the space station.
Lu Bai looked at the remaining flesh and blood on the Fu Sheng Jade, and the smile in his eyes became more and more obvious.
The bones devoured the flesh and blood, and an aura burst out from him.
In the critical space layer formed by the force of the critical dimension, a black shadow is constantly collecting the surrounding darkness, using that darkness to make up for the missing flesh and blood in its heart.
Then, it suddenly felt an aura enveloping its heart, and the fear in its heart suddenly rose at this moment.
Death seems to have transformed from an abstract noun into a concrete individual.
It was exactly the form of Lu Bai.
He was walking towards it step by step, and every step made the black shadow's heart tremble.
Despair and fear, the spiritual emotions that it most often absorbs, are spreading wildly in its heart.
The next moment, it heard the ringing of a bell.
The unique melody of the bell is very catchy. Once you hear it once, you will remember it firmly.
The sound of the bell was so close that it seemed to be ringing right next to his ears.
The movement of absorbing darkness paused, and the black shadow quickly passed through the critical layer and ran to the other side.
In its mind, it tried desperately to get rid of the image of Lu Bai, but that image was becoming clearer and clearer.
It was like a ball of faint light deeper than the darkness, firmly grasping its soul.
After passing through the critical layer and arriving at the space station, the originally swift speed suddenly stopped.
I saw that not far away, Lu Bai was holding the Floating Life Jade and waiting for it.
Traps, all traps!!
Its body turned into darkness again, trying to return to the critical layer.
However, he only felt a pain in his back.
Something sharp pressed against its back, and then a hand quietly grabbed the connection between the bodies.
Waves of power came from it, preventing it from further dispersing its body.
"Where do you want to escape to?"
It struggled hard, its body constantly squirming and twisting forward, but what awaited it was the bone spurs behind it that would pierce into it bit by bit.
The darkness continued to expand and twist, but there was no way to escape.
It turned around and attacked Lu Bai.
However, if we remove that special abstract ability and only talk about the attack power, it is at most slightly stronger than the surface level.
Then, one by one, the floating jades pierced into its body. These floating jades formed a frame, fixing the object into a living specimen.
At this time, Yu Hui rushed out with a few people.
Yarn, Dengfa, Navigation, Fat Man and Slug.
As for the others, even though Yu Hui kept telling them that Lu Bai had captured the strange entity and had a chance to take it down, they still didn't dare to come out.
Even Yu Hui himself, after rushing out, saw the black shadow and instinctively turned his head away, blocking his senses and not daring to carefully observe the monster that almost killed him.
The night passed quickly, and when daybreak came, the others finally dared to come out.
At this time, Lu Bai and his friends, mainly Lu Bai, had already done some research on this monster.
Lu Bai found the other party's intelligence information through the Eye of Darkness.
This thing really came from a critical alien demon, and was called a foolish spirit.
Foolish spirits have two most obvious characteristics.
First, foolish spirits usually reside in a relatively closed place, and then they will formulate some of their own living habits into rules, clearly informing the living beings entering this place.
In other words, most of the regulations in the control room were actually compiled by Yu Ling.
It fits the habit of foolish spirits hiding during the day and coming out at night.
The second one, about the escape spacecraft, is actually a "trap".
On the one hand, this can increase credibility and provide a way for people to escape, but in reality it is just a cover for the third option.
If it were daytime, people would leave the space station directly on a large scale and there would be a high probability that they would be able to escape from here.
Although they are basically all at the surface level, each of them has some abilities or equipment to support them in crossing the starry sky.
Anyway, the exit portal is not far from here.
"Only when people have hope will they be willing to stay where they are." Lu Bai talked about the subtlety of this trap.
The foolish spirit has a very keen grasp of people's hearts.
It is very clear that in such a large team of dozens of people, especially this team is formed temporarily, they are basically strangers to each other.
It is more difficult for them to collectively decide to violate rules that seem to be correct at the beginning.
Gradually, people will come to believe that the rules are correct, and even actively add rules that can restrain themselves, such as not observing too much.
Second, the foolish spirit itself also has good abilities.
It can split its own existence to a certain extent, allowing one part of itself to exist in a physical form and the other part to exist as spiritual darkness.
The dark part can subtly influence people to obey the rules from the very beginning.
It is not difficult for it to deal with a few thorns.
Similar to ordinary demons, the inspiration from the demon will become the sharp blade that stabs you.
When people observe foolish spirits, their own senses will be alienated, and special "inspirations" will be derived, thus becoming abstract.
People themselves should be complex, but in the process of abstraction, those complex factors will all be summed up into a few specific labels.
Labeling and conceptualizing a specific thing is what we call abstraction.
This technique is also used in writing, for example, there are too many characters, they are all alien races, and they are all different.
If you don't want to describe the appearance of these alien races in detail, just extract a few characteristics.
Good guys, bad guys, fat guys, thin guys, slug guys, and so on.
The dark side of the foolish spirit can attack objects at an abstract level, devouring and assimilating them into darkness. This is a relatively high-dimensional attack method.
In this way, people are abstracted, and their strength is limited to a few characteristics at most. The huge maladjustment can make people lose their strength directly.
Then, faced with this relatively high-dimensional conceptual attack, they have no defense capability and can only allow themselves to be slaughtered.
Its physical side shows normal power. For example, this one has earth-level power.
But when facing those who are disciplined by the rules it sets, it can absorb endless power from them.
Use that darkness to replenish yourself, strengthen yourself, and heal yourself.
The more ignorant a person is, the more difficult it is for him to break free from this darkness.
That's why this kind of demon is called a foolish spirit.
Those who are not following the rules are usually troublemakers or minorities, and this minority will find it difficult to fight back when faced with attacks on abstract capabilities.
But within the rules, you will gradually be restrained.
Even though there are still more than a dozen people alive here, if Lu Bai is eliminated and these people are forced to confront the stupid spirits head-on, they will still lose more than they win.
That chance of winning still depends on Dengfa's extremely advanced combat armor.
"Abstraction is really a useful ability." Lu Bai carefully studied the structure of the stupid spirit in front of him again.
He attached great importance to the ability of abstraction. If he could explore the operating structure of this foolish spirit's ability, perhaps he could imitate it a little.
The point is not the lethality of this ability, but that Lu Bai may be able to use it to iterate his own life form again.
Next, everyone wasted no time and after repairing the escape spaceship, they quickly headed towards the door in the distance.
Everyone on the spaceship watched the space station getting farther and farther away, and they gradually felt relieved.
However, in that secret compartment in the space station, there was a hint of darkness.
On the control room monitor, the rules that had been deleted by everyone reappeared.
