Evolved From Polluting the World

Chapter 27: the price of deception

Monday, December 3, 2035

【Bounty Day】

Southeast Asia, Indonesia, West Coast of Sumatra

Weather: Not sure

Visibility: 2.5—5m

Temperature: 55-65℃

Humidity: 89%RH

Environmental pollution value: ? ? ? ? p/m3

Looking at the series of question marks on the environmental pollution value on the wrist dial, Qiao Xun thought that maybe he really encountered a big guy.

Lu Xianyi's mental threshold was once lowered to 28, and it slowly began to rise after leaving the cave.

She felt like her eyes were filled with an unknown liquid with very bright colors, heavy and spicy. The high-speed visions in her head tore at her sanity, dragging her into the abyss. For the first time in such a long time, the mental threshold has dropped to such a low level. She is sure that there must be a huge source of pollution in the cave just now.

"What's going on? Why did such a big riot suddenly happen?"

Qiao Xun looked at love.

Ai's thin neck stretched out, and he kept shaking his head and said:

"I don't even know what happened."

Qiao Xun narrowed his eyes. Doubts arose in his heart. As a guide with high mental strength, Lu Xianyi's mental threshold in the cave just dropped to below 30 quickly, and he fell into a constant bizarre illusion. Ai, a guy who said that his fighting ability was very poor, now so awake...

"You didn't go anywhere just now, did you?"

"No, I have been in that reef pit before, but after the cave trembled, I was afraid of being buried by falling rocks, so I hid behind a bigger reef."

"That's it."

Qiao Xun was a little unconvinced. The abnormality of love, coupled with the previous precedent of withholding key information, made him suspicious.

After thinking about it, he noticed that the "temperature control space" he had created for love had not disappeared.

So he began to trace the source in his mind.

The temperature-controlled space in the love body was born from Qiao Xun's talent of "governing yang", which is the expression of his internal energy in the external environment. Therefore, to a certain extent, he can trace the traces of changes in this temperature-controlled space.

Qiao Xun soon discovered that love did not stay in place all the time, and walked in the middle.

A path of travel appeared in his mind. But he didn't know where the love had gone and what it had done. Just know that he went somewhere.

After all, the "temperature control space" is not a monitor, and it cannot monitor the surrounding environment all the time.

Knowing that love is lying is enough to a certain extent. As for the sudden high-intensity tremor of the cave, and whether the giant hand sticking out from the abyss had anything to do with love, it was no longer important. Importantly, he lied.

In this environment where the trust bond between people is very fragile, it is the best solution to follow the principle of "suspecting the crime and having it".

If you lied, it doesn't matter if the problem is caused by you or not, it can be regarded as infinitely as you caused it.

Qiao Xun used "Withered Trees and Spring Plus" on Lu Xianyi.

The familiar warmth and comfort surged in his body. Lu Xianyi's mental threshold began to rise.

After returning to above 50, her sanity gradually returned to normal, and she let out a soft sigh. The fine beads of sweat on her forehead stuck her hair, making her look a little tired.

"Are you okay?" Joe asked.

Lu Xianyi nodded and smiled slightly,

"Much better. It scared me to death just now. I really don't want to experience that feeling a second time."

"Your mental threshold almost fell below 20."

"It felt like something was eating my brain. Also saw a very large contaminant emerge from the ocean...shape...indescribable."

Qiao Xun shuddered thinking about the huge hand that stretched out from under the abyss.

How many unknown things are still lurking in the evolutionary world. Those existences that pollute both the body and the spirit are like an invisible and intangible mist in the dark, swallowing people up little by little.

Love doesn't seem to have the courage to speak out loud, and the voice is like a crushed cat meowing, and asks in a low voice:

"Are there enough blue blood pearls?"

"Ten, no more, no less."

"That's good. Otherwise, it's a waste of time."

"Is it for nothing? Maybe."

Qiao Xun glanced at Ai faintly, then turned to other places.

The cave has completely collapsed and no longer trembles. Everything is at peace.

Although the cave is calm, this mountain by the sea is not. The meteorological species that have never met on the mountain once again made a mixed cry of "cicadas + frogs". At the same time, the heat flow below began to rise along the mountain, forming a low-pressure concave swirl, and the air flow of the ocean quickly carried the extremely high humidity. Air fills in.

Under this liter, a huge cyclone was formed.

The hot and cold air collided, and the torrential rain came in an instant.

The wind speed at the center of the cyclone quickly reached tropical depression typhoon level and continued to rise.

Qiao Xun could not predict what level the typhoon level would reach under such extreme conditions, and immediately said:

"Let's go back quickly. The weather is too extreme."

The way back doesn't need love to lead, so they pick up speed.

When I came, it took nearly three hours to reach the cave from the sea, and it took only one and a half hours to go back.

A lot of coconuts fell from the coconut grove by the sea. Qiao Xun didn't have the time to kick one by one, blasting the air with "Zhiyang", creating a center of low pressure, forming a small tornado and sending them away.

Back at the beach, you can immediately see the huge sea train parked outside the beach not far away.

Obviously the sea train is not a good place, but after experiencing the extreme mental pollution in the cave, Lu Xianyi actually had a feeling of "coming home". She thought, this is also quite incredible. Perhaps, for many people living in the sea train, it is a kind of destination, otherwise, the alighting rate of the sea train will not be so low, only 13.7%. That is to say, nearly 90% of the people got on the sea train and did not go back.

There are many who cannot go down, and many who do not want to go down.

14:00 pm.

The three waded into the sea and walked towards the open compartment door of the sea train.

As soon as they reached the compartment door, a black metal staircase descended.

After climbing the stairs and entering the carriage, the elegant receptionist standing next to him said with a smile:

"Congratulations to the three passengers on their successful return."

The mainspring turned crunchingly.

The three of Qiao Xun walked into the transfer station, and then took the rail elevator to leave here and return to the reward hall in the public square to hand in the task.

SR level three-person team task, submit 10 blue blood pearls, get 60 points.

Qiao Xun inexplicably feels that this seems to be a bit of a loss... However, the value of items lies in purchasing power. Blue blood pearls do not have purchasing power, but points do.

This has the advantage that team points are assigned to the team itself. But at the same time, this is also a disadvantage, which is bound to form the squeeze of the strong against the weak.

Of course, this itself is what the train wants to see, the strong squeeze the living space of the weak.

Qiao Xun got 60 points to be allocated.

Love smiled dryly and said:

"I didn't do anything, just give me some points for eating, and the rest is yours."

Qiao Xun looked at him and smiled slightly,

"How can it be done, let's divide it equally."

"what?"

Love is surprised. He really didn't expect Qiao Xun to be willing to split equally... Oh, he is indeed a newcomer.

Love, who originally planned to take the minimum living allowance, is also very happy to see this kind of thing. After all, the points are definitely not too much.

When Qiao Xun saw the slight curvature of the corner of Ai's eyes, he smiled and assigned 20 points to his score card.

Seeing the number on the scorecard change from 0 to 20, Ai inevitably laughed happily. He is really happy. He has been hungry for so long, and these 20 points are a life-saving plaster.

Qiao Xun then divided 20 points into Lu Xianyi's point card.

The three then left the public square and separated at the rail elevator station.

There were obvious signs of battle on their bodies, especially Qiao Xun, which was stained with the secretions of many blue-blooded soft-shelled mussels. So, no one in the elevator would suspect that they were newcomers. After all, basically no newcomer would choose to pick up the bounty during the protection week after seeing the cruelty of the train.

After returning to the 4th car, and walking to the street illuminated by the dim yellow street lights, Lu Xianyi finally couldn't help but ask:

"You are so kind, do you really give him 20 points?"

Qiao Xun did not answer directly, but said in a cold tone:

"He lied to us."

"what happened?"

"He didn't stay there and wait at all when we phoned the blue blood pearl in the big groove."

"how do you know?"

"I traced the movement trajectory of the 'temperature control space' I imposed on him. He went to another place and stayed for about an hour. But I don't know exactly where and what he did."

Lu Xianyi frowned,

"And this kind of thing? If I knew it, I should have seen a monitor on him."

"This time is a long lesson."

Lu Xianyi thought about it and asked:

"You said, will the sudden change in the cave have something to do with him?"

"This possibility is not ruled out. In short, since loving this guy has parents who can challenge VIPs, it will definitely not be a blank sheet of paper. It is entirely possible for his parents to leave him something. He also said before. However, his parents took him to that cave. Maybe his parents left something in it. The reason why he chose that mission and chose to cooperate with us may be to take advantage of us. After all, except for the newcomers, other people I shouldn't choose to cooperate with a fuel bottle like him."

"Then why do you still give him 20 points?"

Lu Xianyi didn't quite understand this point, she was obviously deceived, and she had to be given fair treatment.

Qiao Xun looked at the dim street lights in the distance and asked softly:

"How do you educate children who have made mistakes?"

"If it's a little lighter, be patient and reasonable. If it's serious, reprimand it. If it's serious... I might punish you, hehe."

"Yes, it's all about making the child better. But if something is wrong, do nothing? No punishment, no reasoning, even reward him, pamper him. What will he become ?"

"It's getting worse, getting worse... It might be against the law in a civilized society."

Qiao Xun smiled slightly,

"But in an environment like the sea train. It will become more greedy, more presumptuous, more careless. The performance of love confirms my suspicion."

Lu Xianyi suddenly realized, but then she asked suspiciously:

"What if he pretended? To numb you."

"In that case, he's just too powerful and thoughtful. But unfortunately, he's not."

To ask why, the answer is simple. Qiao Xun's special ability "Lust" has already felt the excitement of love and the greed of love.

Of course, he wouldn't say it so directly, but in a different way:

"If love really has such ability, it won't be reduced to stealing buns and being discovered, and then blame me." Qiao Xun strode forward and said as he walked:

"Greed makes people vulnerable."

Now, Qiao Xun doesn't just want to punish Ai, he also wants to know what Ai's parents have left for Ai, and it's worth Ai taking such a risk.

If you can leave something in Sumatra, of course it may stay elsewhere.

Not only will Qiao Xun not turn against Ai, but he will also protect him well and give him enough benefits.

After all, it takes a long line to catch a big fish.

Lu Xianyi said with a smile:

"You really... have an idea."

"What can you think, I just care about myself more."

"Well, that's right. The law of survival."

"You have a good rest. I heard that the damage to the spirit of some pollution is irreversible, but don't leave any sequelae."

"Ah, don't forget that I have the talent of 'two ceremonies'. If one mental body is broken, there will be another time. If you take another ten thousand steps back, the big deal is to return to the database, format it, and everything will be fine."

"Don't say life is cheap."

"Hehe, no, no, no."

Xun Qiao remembered that extra blue blood pearl. A total of 64 pieces were harvested, 10 pieces of tasks were submitted, and there are still 27 pieces left.

"By the way, those blue blood pearls. Let's divide it equally."

"okay."

Lu Xianyi didn't do anything. They're still partners, and it's best not to have any differences.

After arriving at the house, the two separated and went back to their respective homes.

After returning home, the first thing Qiao Xun did was wash up.

The secretions of those blue-blooded soft-shelled mussels are really disgusting. The secretions contained a large amount of cerulocyanine toxin, and even though Qiao Xun's body strength was high, a considerable part penetrated into the body. Although the body has the ability to phagocytose, toxins still need to be eliminated from the body.

In the bathroom, blue-brown toxins seeped from his skin and drained into the sewage system.

After washing up, Qiao Xun sat on the sofa in the living room and started to organize his receipt.

The flesh and blood of sixty-four blue-blooded soft-shelled mussels, twenty-seven blue-blooded pearls, and twenty points. In terms of talents, because the main advanced talents of the blue-blooded soft-shelled mussels are "amphibians" to "atlan glory", the new harvest is only the extra talent "sympathetic neurotoxin".

Qiao Xun is also clear about one thing, the totem corresponding to the "amphibian" series of runes is siren. One of the main totems of that black revolution.

"Sympathetic Neurotoxin" is a talent of the auxiliary department, which can produce neurotoxins in the body. Neurotoxins can be stored in tissue fluids, blood, muscles, fats, bones… or they can be ejected by other forces.

In people affected by this neurotoxin, the sympathetic nerves will enter an abnormal state, overexcited, dormant, and even inactive.

The sympathetic nerve is an important part of the autonomic nervous system, and some of the body's inconspicuous but very important functions are controlled by it. Such as vasoconstriction, bladder wall muscle relaxation, intestinal peristalsis, sweat gland secretion and so on.

Qiao Xun had a general understanding, this talent is not strong, and the destructiveness is not very high, but it is still quite useful. For example, it can be used to regulate the sympathetic nervous system in conjunction with "Withered Trees and Spring Plus" to achieve a more effective healing effect, or it can be used secretly to destroy it like poisoning.

It's definitely worth learning.

At 18:00 in the evening, Qiao Xun and Lu Xianyi went to the dining area to eat, and they happened to meet love.

Qiao Xun is naturally the name of Qiao Li's "Celebration Banquet" and warmly invited him.

The three had a fairly harmonious dinner.

At night, Qiao Xun and Lu Xianyi were not idle. They continued to take the various rail elevators in each car, and continued to observe and record the passengers here.

To be even more refined, they even kept a record of everyone they observed.

After all, except for one car in the general area, there are more than 700 people in the remaining 9 carriages. It's not too much, and if you are willing to spend time, you can naturally record them one by one.

Originally, Qiao Xun really thought that there were only 1,000 people on the train. After getting on the train, he realized that there were only 1,000 passengers in the general area, VIP area and some special areas.

As for the livestock area? Sorry, UU reading www.uukanshu.com Those are not human, they are livestock, and they are not counted in it.

Through statistics and descriptions of love, Qiao Xun roughly speculated that the number of people in the livestock area may be tens of thousands.

The proportions are reasonable:

Livestock area: general area: VIP area is approximately equal to 300:30:1

300 livestock support a VIP, and the ordinary area is sandwiched in the middle, and it is not up or down.

midnight.

Qiao Xun lay on the bed and listened to the twelve bells of the clock tower.

The broadcast sounded:

"Dear fellow travelers. Today is Tuesday, December 4, 2035, random event day."

The voice paused,

"The random event this time is... Nightmare Invasion. Nightmare Invasion will start at 6:00 am. New passengers will not participate in this random event. Please prepare for the upcoming participation."
