Chapter 781 [Crimson Demon]
"Haha, a little trick made Mr. Li Yun laugh."
Dr. Schmidt said with a smile: "As you can see, there are actually two 2-159s. Now that the second one has been opened, the entire seventh floor has been completely blocked."
"One hundred and thirty-two staff members, including me, have been locked up here with you."
"Our more than one hundred lives are all in your hands, Mr. Li Yun!"
Dr. Schmidt joked with a smile, which made Li Yun laugh dumbly, with a playful smile on his face.
The elite containment team 'Purple Fire' who was urgently transferred from the side had no intention of joking.
Each of their thirteen team members had their eyes fixed on Li Yun's every move, not daring to relax at all.
Li Yun glanced at them, then turned his head, looked at Dr. Schmidt and smiled: "Don't sound so scary, I have no murderous intention towards you."
"Coming to reality from the world of 1-189, he also has the title of the World-Destroying Demon King. I would treat such a character with caution, so I can completely understand your behavior."
Dr. Schmidt nodded and smiled: "It's good that you can understand. However, if you are really angry about your experiences these days, it doesn't matter. All seventh-level staff, including me, can become the target of your anger. …”
Hearing these words, the faces of the members of the elite containment team next to him changed.
But then, Dr. Schmidt continued: "But in that case, the [Immovable Lock] will be permanently opened, and you will have no possibility of leaving this place."
Dr. Schmidt doesn’t need to explain this to Li Yun.
He smiled lightly, stepped forward and said: "Let's go, didn't you say you would take me to see the contained object who can tell me my origin? I have been interested in him for a long time!"
"No problem, please come with me."
Dr. Schmidt smiled and stretched out his hand, walking at the front to lead the way.
Beside him stood the young researcher named Li An.
About five meters behind him were thirteen members of the elite containment team 'Purple Fire'.
Along the way, Dr. Schmidt kept talking: "You may have misunderstood something. 2-043, the anomaly you mentioned, did not reveal your identity and origin. He just gave us a photo." , other things are all guessed by our own investigation."
"……oh?"
Li Yun raised his eyebrows and glanced at Li An next to him. Seeing that he had no expression, he said calmly: "Speaking of which, I haven't asked yet, what do the numbers in front of these project numbers mean?"
Dr. Schmidt smiled and said: "It has no special meaning, it's just the area where the abnormal objects were first discovered. Numbers 1 to 7 represent the seven continents on the earth, and 8 to 11 represent the four oceans."
"As for your 0, it is the most special one. It represents an independent anomaly born from an abnormal object."
"I see." Li Yun nodded thoughtfully, and then continued, "The numbers after that are the order in which the abnormal items were discovered by you, right? I am 527, does it mean that until I show up, you only Contained 527 anomalous items?"
Dr. Schmidt smiled and said: "In the early days, it was indeed like this, but later, many abnormal objects were destroyed, and many numbers were vacated. Your 527 is the smallest number that was vacated, and it does not mean that Total number of anomalous items."
…That’s a bit scary!
No. 527 is not the last anomaly contained by Category 9 Affairs Company, which shows that the number of abnormal items they hold is extremely large, which may not be much less than that of the organization in Li Yun's memory.
The two asked and answered questions and soon arrived at another holding room on the seventh floor.
This is a metal room made purely of alloy. The room is almost completely enclosed, with only an alloy door connected to the outside world.
The outside world is also a fully enclosed metal corridor made of alloy. There are seven alloy doors in the corridor. After entering, these seven alloy doors will open and close in sequence to maintain the sealing of the entire containment room.
According to Dr. Schmidt, every corner of this containment room has been coated with a special alloy.
It was an effect derivative produced by a certain containment in Base No. 1. It was called [Psychic Isolation Alloy], and it possessed powerful power that could block all types of mental power and mental distortion.
Li Yun is very interested in this alloy.
He really wanted to test it with his spiritual consciousness, but unfortunately, now that the effect of [Immovable Lock] has been turned on, his spiritual consciousness can only encounter the barrier produced by the blocking effect on the wall, and cannot perceive the mind-isolating alloy itself.
After roughly reading the file numbered [2-043], Li Yun put it down and walked into the first opened alloy door with interest under everyone's gaze.
"laugh--"
Not long after, as layers of alloy doors opened, Li Yun finally entered the innermost room.
There is a metal chair in the room, and sitting on the chair is a red humanoid creature.
He has devil-like horns, fine red scales all over his body, a pair of bat wings growing on his back, and a red-scaled tail like a steel whip on his tailbone.
From the appearance point of view, he is the same as the demon image in myths and legends.
The only difference is probably that the face is not vicious, but as handsome as a male angel.
There is no doubt that he is the second humanoid anomaly contained by Category 9 Affairs Company, number [2-043], codenamed Crimson Devil!
Compared with Li Yun, who is also an abnormal humanoid, this crimson demon seems a little too downtrodden.
His wrists and ankles were made of ring-shaped alloy and were firmly fixed on the chair. His whole body was like a death row prisoner about to be executed by the electric chair, huddled in the chair in an extremely awkward posture.
When Li Yun walked into the holding room, the handsome red devil looked up at him.
The next moment, a twisted feeling originated from the deepest part of the soul, and even instantly activated the psychic protection necklace on Li Yun.
Having said this, I have to mention that the psychic protection necklace created by Lin Zhongtian has gone through three phases of strengthening and iteration.
Although today's soul protection necklaces are still called necklaces, they are actually treasures that can be integrated into the soul. Its technical principles are derived from the soul defense artifacts in the world of Panlong.
Even if the wearer's body is annihilated and only the soul remains, the psychic protection effect still exists.
At the same time, the energy supply of the psychic protection necklace is no longer limited to gray fog. All energy, including the nuclear power possessed by Li Yun, can maintain the effect of psychic protection.
Therefore, the moment the psychic protection was activated, Li Yun immediately noticed the killing intent and the power of distorting the soul coming from the crimson demon.
He snorted coldly, and the core power in his body poured into the spiritual protection artifact, turning into an extremely terrifying hot feeling, which was rolled back along with the power of mind distortion coming from the crimson demon.
"ah!"
In just a moment, the crimson demon's expression changed drastically.
He screamed, and his body suddenly burst into flames out of thin air.
The raging golden-red flames continued to burn his body and soul, making him clenched his fists suddenly and his whole body twitched.
Seeing this scene, Dr. Schmidt and others outside the containment room were shocked.
The 'Purple Fire' team next to them was stunned for a moment, and then showed a happy smile.
Obviously, some of their comrades had died at the hands of this humanoid anomaly named [Crimson Demon], so they were happy to see the situation where the Crimson Demon was easily suppressed by the World-Destroying Demon King.
Dr. Schmidt quickly turned on the microphone: "Li Yun, please be patient. There is an unpredictable terror behind 2-043. If he dies here, no one knows what will happen!"
"Don't worry, we won't burn him to death."
Li Yun replied casually, then looked at the crimson demon whose whole body was burning, and said lightly: "This is just this time, it won't be the same next time."
After saying that, the flames on the crimson demon's body gradually disappeared, and his whole body recovered from the convulsions. Then he collapsed on the alloy chair, gasping for breath with some depression.
Li Yun said calmly: "Can we have a good chat now?"
"..."
The crimson demon raised his head and looked at Li Yun strangely.
Then, he suddenly spoke and said something in a mysterious language that humans could not understand at all.
Outside the containment room, Dr. Schmidt and others were slightly startled, then frowned tightly.
……I'm coming!
It’s the mysterious language that 2-043 used before he could learn human language.
The base once summoned the world's top language experts to work together to decipher it, but in the end there was no result. Instead, it drove several language experts crazy and turned them into loyal believers of the devil.
"It's this language again..."
"Now we have to see if 0-527 [World-Destroying Demon King] can understand it!"
Dr. Schmidt turned his attention to Li Yun in the containment room and found a surprised look on his face. After thinking for a moment, he actually replied in the same language.
Seeing this scene, Dr. Schmidt's pupils shrank, and he quickly turned on the microphone and said, "Li Yun, what are you talking about?"
Li Yun turned his head and glanced at the camera in the containment room, and then said calmly: "It's nothing. He asked me if I came from the void, and I said no."
Dr. Schmidt was surprised: "Can you understand?"
Li Yun chuckled and said: "Of course, this is a language derived from the language of the soul, and it comes with a compilation system. Anyone who has attainments in spiritual consciousness or spiritual power can easily understand it. And learn the language.”
"A simple analogy is like reducing the multi-dimensional spiritual language into tones and reverse-compiling the spiritual words..."
Everyone seemed to understand, and so did Dr. Schmidt.
But he doesn't care, he only cares about one problem——
"Can we learn?"
"..."
Li Yun raised his eyebrows, shook his head and said, "Xuan!"
"And I don't recommend you learn this language, because in addition to its own compilation system, it also has a strange rhythmic accent, which is very much like singing some kind of hymn or Bible."
"Any life that has learned this language, even if it does not use it, can easily have its mind twisted and become the terrifying fanatical believer behind the [Crimson Demon] in your mouth..."
Is there still such a thing?
No wonder several experts who studied this language were driven crazy...
Dr. Schmidt stared at the screen blankly, then seemed to remember something and asked doubtfully: "Then why aren't you afraid?"
"It's very simple." Li Yun said lightly, "Because behind me, there is an equally terrifying existence."
