Chapter 741 Uncanny Valley Theory (Second)

"Crack!"

Without any accident, the 【Loulan Secret Cave Stone Key】returned to Zuo Yang's hands.

It's just that this thing seems to be fully charged, and it still maintains the state after activation, and has not dimmed again and turned into an ordinary stone.

The earthquake did not appear again, and the stone tablet did not change in any way.

Zuo Yang felt that this might be a problem.

Because these steles were lowered, the forest of steles outside might have changed accordingly. If there were new steles to fill their positions, it might not be so easy to be discovered. If not, his whereabouts might be exposed .

Zuo Yang is more inclined to "fill in", because Lei Xingkong said before that these steles will change every time there is an earthquake, but only careful people will find out, which means that the number of steles should not change, that is to say, they It will be replaced automatically, instead of revealing a gap after sinking.

However, the entrance behind him has been closed, which reassures Zuo Yang a lot. At least during his exploration of the "Loulan Secret Cave", no outsiders should be able to come in and interfere.

So he repacked the [Loulan Secret Cave Stone Key], and Zuo Yang walked around the stone tablet and walked towards a dark circular arch directly behind the stone tablet.

"Crack!"

As soon as one foot stepped into the door, Zuo Yang heard an extremely neat voice.

The reason why the adjective "neat" is used is because Zuo Yang actually heard many voices, and the reason why "one" is used as the quantifier is because these voices were uttered almost at the same time, just like a choir singing The singing is average, no matter how neat it is, it can be heard that this is a chorus, not a solo.

This voice instantly raised Zuo Yang's vigilance, and instead of stepping in with his second foot, he stretched out the torch as far as possible.

As soon as it stretched out, Zuo Yang immediately saw two rows of shiny jewel-like things.

Those are the two rows of puppets standing on both sides of the door and the puppets seen in the previous dungeon. The puppets here are obviously much better preserved in the dungeon. They wear uniform armor and hold exactly the same spears in their hands. The wooden materials are smooth and delicate, and the surface seems to be coated with a layer of glue paint, which can reflect light under the reflection of the fire... Compared with these puppets, the puppets I have seen in the dungeon before are like discarded wrecks. Substandard, and that dungeon is a substandard dump.

As for those two rows of shiny jewel-like things, they are the eyes of these puppets!

Yes!

These puppets all turned their heads sideways and opened their eyes, showing the activated state of those "defective products". At this moment, they are staring at Zuo Yang with these dark and clear eyes, giving people a chilling feeling.

"I go!"

Naturally, Zuo Yang was taken aback immediately. It is conceivable that the very neat "click" sound just now should be the sound made by these puppets turning their heads when they looked at him... No wonder they are so familiar. That's the sound the puppets made when they turned their heads.

But this time, Zuo Yang didn't jump out in shock, but quickly calmed down.

This is also due to the fact that the puppets in the dungeon didn't do anything to him, otherwise, if they were attacked like Boss Tao and others, Zuo Yang's first reaction would be to run away.

"These puppets shouldn't do anything to me, right?"

With a sense of luck, Zuo Yang tried to step in with the other foot.

There is nothing he can do about it, he knows exactly what he is here for, he is here to hunt for treasure, no matter whether there is a mountain of knives or a sea of ​​fire in front of him, since he finally got in, he has to keep going even if he bites the bullet, unless he meets To the predicament that he absolutely cannot overcome with his current strength.

Just at this time.

"call!"

Another neat voice sounded, and a light suddenly lit up behind those puppets, brightly illuminating the originally dark secret realm.

It was a row of oil lamps mounted on the wall. For some unknown reason, those oil lamps ignited automatically, as if they were welcoming Zuo Yang's arrival in this way.

Zuo Yang was naturally nervous again, but he calmed down faster this time.

Because he finally saw clearly what kind of place he was in... This is a straight corridor with a width of 5 meters and a height of [-] meters. It was excavated directly, but the surface is extremely smooth. Even with modern advanced cutting technology, it may not be able to achieve this level. After all, this tunnel is a big project.

At the end of the corridor is another arch, and the inside of that arch is also pitch black. I don't know if it will light up after walking in.

At the same time, Zuo Yang finally saw these puppets clearly, and counted them to a total of 40. They were divided into two neat rows and stood face to face on both sides of the corridor. The dark and bright eyes didn't even blink, because the structure is different, they shouldn't feel dry either.

To be honest, being looked at by them like this, Zuo Yang still felt hairy.

There is a modern saying called "Uncanny Valley Theory", which refers to humanoid objects like these puppets. If their degree of simulation is low, people will not be afraid, because they know it is fake, but when the degree of simulation is high, people will not be afraid. To a certain extent, people are sometimes not sure whether it is true or false. Treating real people as fake people and fake people as real people will scare people, and at the same time, it will also make people feel a sense of potential threat.

This is the reason for Zuo Yang's fear now, and another reason is that he knows that these puppets are alive now, but he doesn't know what they will do to him, which is the more terrifying thing.

"Ma Dan, how can you get a tiger cub if you don't enter the tiger's den, fight it!"

It was naturally impossible to withdraw like this, so Zuo Yang simply became a bachelor, gritted his teeth and took another step forward.

"Wow-clang!"

These puppets moved again in an instant, they suddenly raised the spears in their hands, and then stabbed diagonally upwards.

In this way, the spears of the two rows of puppets intersected with each other, forming a channel of interlaced spears between them. This can be regarded as a welcome ceremony in the Celestial Dynasty, but it is definitely not a friendly welcome ceremony.

"Would you please enter the urn?"

Seeing this scene, Zuo Yang calmed down instead, and walked in with big strides... This at least shows that these puppets should not do anything to him now. As for whether they can come out alive after entering, that is the next It's over.

Anyway, if you don't go in and see what's inside, Zuo Yang will definitely not be reconciled.
