Chapter 590: Chapter 590: Little Genius Yeying_1
Song Lan deeply felt the malice of the "pit" world.
He had initially thought that those who were forcibly sent into the "pit" all died under the fangs and claws of mutant constructs, but the real danger of the "pit" lay in the fact that it was an endless cycle.
Even if you were as brave and skilled in combat as the Commander of the First Army Corp, you could still potentially lose yourself amidst the endless cycles and the relentless slaughter.
In fact, if it weren’t for the mind link of Yeying, they would probably have a hard time noticing the strange aspects of the "pit"’s space, for the environment inside was all too similar, coupled with the occasional attacks from mutant constructs and malevolent consciousness entities, making it difficult for those who ventured in to realize they were caught in an incessant loop.
By the time they became aware of this, they might already be in a state of utter depletion and at a dead end.
For some unknown reason, mutant constructs and consciousness entities would "refresh," which Song Lan felt might involve the power of another dimension—something that seemed beyond human capability to achieve.
And according to Song Lan’s observations, to uncover the secrets of the "pit," you must possess invincible psychic abilities like the queen of the bug swarm, and also have a "human radar" by your side who can maintain a mind link with people outside of the "pit." Only when you have met these conditions is it just the beginning of decoding.
"Yeying, has the Archbishop ever revealed her abilities to you?"
Facing this sudden turn of events, people from three different powers gathered together to discuss their current situation.
"Abilities?"
Yeying looked at Song Lan with a puzzled expression, "What are abilities?"
"Abilities are..."
"The believers of the Lunar Eclipse Sect and real psychic ability users are different; they don’t manifest any special abilities."
To prevent this war council from turning into a lesson on the basics of spiritual energy, the Commander of the First Army Corp interrupted Yeying to explain to Song Lan, "You can think of them as individuals with spiritual energy. Helifis just has the highest intensity of spiritual energy among them. In past wars, she never exhibited any abilities."
The Archbishop has always been their focus. Their knowledge of Helifis was far more than that of the Angel of Death.
This is also why they believed that the believers of the Lunar Eclipse Sect were not true psychic ability users. Instead, they had been infected with some kind of unknown "consciousness virus" in humans. One of the characteristics of the virus is to confer spiritual energy, but the real purpose of the virus has never been a gift but to mutate them into twisted variants when necessary.
The mutated constructs they encountered along the way were what those believers turned into after their complete transformation.
Greater vitality, more ferocious aggressiveness, their once-human identities were now barely discernible from their outlines; they could have been miners, explorers, or those condemned as the worst of sinners by the Lunar Eclipse Sect.
"Even if Helifis is a real psychic ability user, she never displayed her ability in any public setting."
The Commander of the First Army Corp stated with certainty.
His tone also made Song Lan fall into contemplation. Since Langinus appeared, he felt that there seemed to be more and more ability users of his type, everyone seemed to have forgotten the principle of sincere friendship, keeping their real abilities hidden, so that he always had to face some bizarre powers he had never seen before.
This time, he has to criticize the former dean of the Purple Wisteria Academy, who not only hid his true abilities but also used the students to spread highly misleading information to the outside world.
Wasn’t this just like what he had done to the Foster Family?
After condemning Langinus, the former principal, and the Archbishop, Song Lan couldn’t help but refocus on the problem at hand.
The information they had was too scarce, and many details contradicted one another.
If Helifis’s ability was to make a region of space loop, then what about the mutant constructs that kept "refreshing"?
"The loop of the ’pit’’s paths is about an hour’s journey, after which we’ll come back to the starting point, that is, the area beneath the platform. That’s when those destroyed mutant constructs will ’revive’."
Lu Xiang mused, "Perhaps the ’pit’’s interior space is repetitive."
"No, it’s not repetitive!"
To her surprise, Yeying, whose mind was wandering outside, suddenly spoke up. Noticing everyone’s gaze on her, she pointed to the empty stone platform beside the blood pool and said, "The lizards that were here before are gone."
This was exactly the place they had previously "surveyed the geology."
Song Lan found the marks she had left on the stalactites above, so they speculated that the terrain here was actually cyclically repetitive.
It was precisely because she believed Song Lan’s judgment that she started looking carefully for the lizard she had previously held in her mouth.
The lizard tasted sweet in her mouth, a texture much softer than minerals, not much different from a lollipop.
Previously, Lu Xiang had startled her, causing her to carelessly let the lizard slip into the pool of blood and disappear. This time, when they returned, the lizard never appeared again.
This greatly disappointed Yeying.
She had originally planned to sneak the lizard into her mouth while the three of them were in a meeting.
"Indeed, it’s gone."
Song Lan was startled.
However, what he referred to was naturally not the random phenomenon described by Yeying. After Yeying spoke up, he subconsciously spread out his Spiritual Energy, and was surprised to find that not only the lizard had "disappeared", but nearly half of the more than twenty unknown species he had previously detected had also vanished without a trace.
Song Lan guessed that this might be due to the news that Yeying liked to put small animals in her mouth to taste spreading among them.
The terrain here had not changed; the stalactites above still bore the handprints he had left from his last "geological survey". If they moved forward for a while, they would come back to the starting point under the platform and once again face the swarm of aberrant constructs...
So the question arose, in this cyclical and enclosed space, where did those small animals run off to?
"Yeying, where did that lizard run off to just now?"
"There!"
Yeying gazed longingly at the blood pool bubbling with suspicious bubbles. After having tasted the liquid inside once, she developed a strong aversion to the blood pool, so she did not intend to follow when the lizard jumped in.
She felt that even the most delicious thing would become detestable after soaking in the blood pool.
"I see, I see!"
After staring at the blood pool for half a minute, Song Lan finally showed a look of sudden realization, "Yeying, you are a genius!"
"Huh?"
Yeying looked up with an even more bewildered expression.
"You eat well, you should eat more small animals in the future!"
If it were not for Yeying’s sudden mention, Song Lan would not have the leisure to spread his Spiritual Energy to observe those small animals, nor would he have discovered the secret that more than half of the species had disappeared from the cave.
"This is the way to leave this ’mine pit’!"
He pointed at the blood pool bubbling with bubbles, which at first glance looked like it was filled with poisonous substances.
The liquid inside, which even the normally accepting Yeying found repulsive, churned away, and once again as the advisor of the Bug Swarm, he had cracked the secret.
"However, to verify the correctness of this theory, I need a volunteer."
This excited voice echoed in the "mine pit" for a long time, yet everyone present unanimously turned their gaze to the side, even the valiant commander of the First Army Corp was no exception.
"Yeying, do you have anything to say?"
"I..."
Yeying looked at Song Lan, then at the bubbling blood pool, "I have a stomach ache!"
