White's substitute is a substitute produced by him through continuous study of technology in DePauw after receiving Pucci's advice to calm his mind. It is named "Hydrangea", which symbolizes various meanings, and the two most famous flower languages ​​are "Hope" and "family reunion" also represent White's emphasis on family members and the new hope of life awakened in middle age.

But, no matter how beautiful the symbolic meaning is, hydrangeas are poisonous things, and White has long been prepared to hurt and trample countless others, and he must also achieve his own peace of mind.

His stand-in ability uses other people's "hope", "reunion", "love" and "betrayal" as highly poisonous drugs.

Relying on the ability of "Hydrangea", White quickly climbed from a pardoned prisoner to the top of DePauw. In this research institute, there are people who have taken the poison of blue hydrangea and can only be devoted to him;

There are also people who take the poison of white hydrangea, give up hope and become walking dead;

There are even creatures that take the poison of purple hydrangeas, and the poison will attack when they are reunited with their families or groups, and they lose all hope, and have to stay in the institute to be studied or contained.

Relying on the poison that cannot be resolved, White has made countless intelligent beings submissive, and wild and unruly objects often use other brains.

For example, the current unicorn fairy has been using the poisonous, somewhat blurred vision to estimate the distance between himself and White.

However, as a scientific researcher with high IQ, White is usually very cautious when negotiating, and will not let the other party have the opportunity to hold him hostage as a bargaining price.

In addition, his former student, later accomplice, and current bodyguard Pinkman is also a stand-in emissary, and he has a melee speed stand-in. White is also very assured of the bodyguard's ability.

However, although Pinkman's substitute has never failed, White still thinks of the man that Father Pucci said had inspired him.

In the second half of his life, White was keen to overthrow all kinds of successful elites who had been proud of him, and to vent his frustrations in the first half of his life, but he never wanted to fight against the wicked savior.

Although he has never met DIO, he has learned from Pucci and other DIO believers that that man can even control the time, and he will not be afraid of his toxic attacks at all, and he will not take Pinkman's stand-in seriously.

But White never actually faced a time-based opponent, nor did he place Unicorn in that category.

However, the unicorn, whose reaction seemed to be slowed down due to the toxicity, seemed to disappear from White's field of vision after estimating the distance between the two.

"Kill you, won't the poison of the substitute be lifted?"

This was what the unicorn was thinking at the moment, and it rushed towards White at a terrifying speed that seemed to stop time—it was the speed it plundered from the Platinum Star.

"So fast--"

White's brain seemed to be suspended, too late to react, but kept recalling other people's description of "time pause".

It's just that the Unicorn Fairy only scratched the Platinum Star's paw, and didn't completely capture the fastest speed beyond the speed of light, so it couldn't really pause time, not to mention the toxicity that also affected its actions to some extent.

"It's just... this speed is enough to kill you, a bad old man!"

The unicorn thought so, and its claws quickly stretched towards White's throat.

White really couldn't react to this, and his stand-in was not good at melee combat either, but at the moment when the unicorn's claw was about to be "physically detoxified", White's big bald head moved back for a while uncontrollably , Let the unicorn's claws knock down the sky.

"Are there any other substitutes?"

The unicorn fairy's gradually blurred vision vaguely saw a pair of stone-like wings protruding from behind White, probably another stand-in who was dragging him to move.

It's just that the speed at which the other stand dragged White was not considered fast. According to the calculation of the Unicorn Immortal, it would not affect its continued pursuit, so it looked away, not intending to observe carefully.

It's just that while chasing, the Unicorn Immortal's intuition told it: the speed of the double behind White seemed to be constantly superimposing...

065. Don't Blink

The eyes of insects are all compound eyes. An insect eye often contains hundreds or thousands of pupils, and each pupil has an independent light-sensing ability. Only one point of image can be obtained, but the many pupils of insects can completely capture the process of object movement, and then transmit it to the brain through the optic nerve.

Therefore, insects are often particularly sensitive to moving objects, which is similar to the dynamic vision of Sharingan and "scary beasts".

The dragonfly with the strongest dynamic vision has as many as 2.8 compound eyes, and can even fully see the trajectory of high-speed objects such as bullets, while the compound eyes of beetles generally have thousands of them, which is on the same level as flies, that is to say, even a fly swatter Can't escape.

But "Unicorn" is not an ordinary beetle. By devouring various species, almost every organ has evolved to the state most suitable for survival and fighting in nature, so its dynamic vision is naturally the strongest among insects. , is very sensitive to the speed of moving objects, and can judge the opponent's speed just by observing.

Therefore, the moment the Unicorn Immortal sees another double, it judges that its speed is not a threat to itself—even when it sees the double clearly, it feels that the other's speed seems to be dropping suddenly.

Therefore, the Unicorn Immortal judged that it could attack White directly, and killing him would relieve the poison he was poisoned.

It didn't continue to guard against another stand-in. On the other hand, White made a weird move: he opened his large research coat, which also blocked the unicorn's sight, making it unable to see the other even though it had tens of thousands of compound eyes. Looks like a stand-in.

But at this moment, the speed of the other stand-in began to increase, holding White and keeping away, and even distanced himself from the unicorn who had stolen the platinum star.

On the one hand, the opponent's speed is indeed very fast, and on the other hand, it is also because the toxicity of the hydrangea is constantly eroding the body functions of the unicorn.

The situation is obviously not good for the unicorn. Once it can't catch up with White, the toxicity in its body will become more and more serious.

"But there's another option, isn't there?"

Instead of continuing to chase White, who was getting faster and faster, the Unicorn Fairy changed its direction and stretched out its claws to stab Pinkman who followed White into the containment room but stayed where he was.

Its thinking is very clear: this young man is most likely to be the emissary of another stand-in, as long as he is killed, the stand-in will not be able to continue to carry White.

The idea was indeed correct, but just as the unicorn was about to approach the young man and already saw the look of fear on his face, an intense sense of crisis quickly rushed towards the blind spot behind the unicorn.

In addition to visual organs, insects also have a large number of auditory organs. For example, flies, whose dynamic vision is not top-notch, rely on auditory perception of air flow to judge danger, so fly swatters that can reduce air vibration are particularly effective against them.

Therefore, even if it is invisible, the unicorn can feel the crisis coming from outside the range of vision, as well as the speed of the source of the crisis.

It just so happens that the speed of the object behind it is also increasing.

"Is it another substitute, did you turn back so soon?"

The Unicorn Fairy had to give up on White, who was close at hand, and turned his attention to the crisis behind him to start guarding.

But the moment another stand-in entered its line of sight, a strange phenomenon happened again: according to the signal transmitted by the powerful perception of the unicorn, that guy's speed dropped to 0 again, that is, it stood still.

And the Unicorn Fairy finally saw its whole picture clearly: it was a slightly ferocious stone statue with female facial features, wearing a robe and wings on its back, and its image was close to that of an angel in the definition of Christianity.

The Unicorn Immortal couldn't help being a little suspicious: So, it was just a stone statue that didn't move at a frightening speed?

A conjecture came to the mind of the Unicorn Fairy.

It tentatively looked away and stopped looking at the stone statue, so soon, the unicorn's auditory organs could perceive the signs of movement behind it again.

And when it turned its head suddenly, what appeared in front of it was another stone statue that did not move, but the distance between itself and itself was greatly shortened.

"I understand!"

The Unicorn Fairy verified his conjecture and also understood the characteristics of this stand-in: when it is stared at by the eye, it will lose all speed and become an immovable stone statue, but if the eye is moved away, it will unfold Attack, and the speed is getting faster and faster.

That's why the double hid behind White, and when the unicorn saw part of its body, it fell into a stillness.

But soon, White lifted his robe, blocking the Unicorn's view of the double, and the latter started to speed up again.

"Have you seen it through, you damn monster!"

Pinkman scolded in an unhappy tone.

His stand-in name is "Weeping Angel", and its characteristics are: when the Weeping Angel is seen by any creature, it will turn into a stone. In the stone state, it cannot hurt anyone or be harmed-even if it is broken at this time, it will turn into a stone. Quick recovery.But when the opponent turns his head or blinks, the crying angel can move, and the moving speed will become faster and faster until the opponent's neck is twisted.

It is worth mentioning that one of the most famous containment objects: 173 has very similar characteristics to the Weeping Angel, and it was created in the same year.

"Then the question is very simple."

Since it will remain still as long as it is being watched, the unicorn tilts its neck and keeps watching the weeping angel while moving towards Pinkman.

In this way, it can kill Pinkman without being chased by the Weeping Angel.

There was still no problem with the train of thought, but just when the Unicorn Fairy kept making sure that the weeping angel behind him remained still, there was a faster and faster movement from outside the blind spot of its field of vision.

"This thing...is there more than one?"

The unicorn almost went mad.

In the setting of the blinking movement, the Weeping Angel is basically similar to 173, but the Weeping Angel has another terrifying setting: any image containing a Weeping Angel will eventually become a real angel.

In Pinkman's hands, there are several photos of the weeping angel in the state of the statue - the weeping angel in the state of motion is a stand-in, but the state of the statue is an entity that can be photographed.

That's right, each photo can be transformed into a new weeping angel. The first one was carrying White away before, the second one was stared at by the unicorn fairy, and now, the third one has also appeared...

It's just that Pinkman's mental power is limited, and under normal circumstances, he can only control three weeping angels at the same time, which is already his maximum limit.

But for the unicorn, it is extremely difficult to deal with the two weeping angels at the same time: they appear in almost opposite positions, and it is impossible for him to watch them at the same time.

wait, relative position...

A flash of inspiration flashed in the unicorn fairy's mind, and he thought of the only way to crack it.

066. face to face

At this time, White had already escaped to the containment room with the help of the Weeping Angel No. [-], but his heart was still not completely relaxed: Pinkman was not only his right-hand man, but also had to stay away from his family. A spiritual partner who can talk a few words about topics outside of research, he doesn't want this young man's life to be taken seriously.

Therefore, he did not take a step away from the containment room and escape to a safe place, but was watching the battle scene nervously through the glass on the containment room wall.

Even though he has studied countless strange creatures, the tenacious vitality of the unicorn is the only one White has ever seen in his life. He can still go into battle after being poisoned by the hydrangea, and even forced Pinkman's third weeping angel.

"But that's all there is!"

White is convinced of this. So far, he has not seen a creature that can withstand the pincers of two weeping angels.

Generally, if you want to see through the characteristics of the Weeping Angel, you need to pay the price of your life, and even if you realize that this thing can only attack without being watched, when two Weeping Angels are by your side, you will fall into a powerless situation —When you stare nervously at one, the other will snap your neck, unless...

With White's IQ, he actually knows the only weakness of the Weeping Angel, but that weakness is too hidden, and it is even more difficult to discover it in a fierce and thoughtless battle.

Just as White was expecting Weeping Angel No. [-] to subdue the unicorn, his cell phone rang in his pocket suddenly, and when White was impatiently lowering his head to press it, Pinkman's loud cursing came from the containment room There was a sound, so White hurriedly raised his head again, witnessing the ending he least wanted to see——

The third Weeping Angel, was in the path of the unicorn, and even his claws almost touched the unicorn's head - but it could not go any further.

Because its body, like the second weeping angel, has been completely frozen into stone.

The second weeping angel is held in the hands of the unicorn, facing the third weeping angel. It also maintains the state of stone carving, just like the town house beast standing opposite the gate of a Chinese-style building.

Logically speaking, under the action of the Unicorn Immortal, the second weeping angel left the former's line of sight and could switch back to the fighting stance.

But both Pinkman and White knew that this worm-shaped creature had already figured out the real weakness of the Weeping Angel: when they looked at each other, they would also fall into a petrified state, and because the stone statue could not turn its head or blink, it could not turn its head or blink without external force. In the event of intervention, this petrification can be permanent.

Therefore, in the prototype story, the crying angel usually covers his eyes with his hands to prevent the eyes of the same kind.

"This bastard has an IQ that is no less than that of a human... no, an IQ of an elite human!"

White came to the conclusion bitterly.

In such a short and fierce battle, it is not possible for ordinary intelligent creatures to analyze the weaknesses of the Weeping Angel's characteristics in one go.

At this time, White's mobile phone's incoming call notification stopped beeping, but a text message notification sound came.

White finally felt that something was wrong: as a confined research maniac, cut off from family and old friends, his social circle was extremely small.

Basically only the subordinate colleagues of graduate students and the remnants of DIO who have very little contact with each other and can be ignored.

And most of the colleagues in the group knew that they were handling the contents, and they called him and sent him text messages, which meant that there must be important information to report.

So White temporarily looked away from the battlefield, turned on the phone, and found a missed call and a multimedia message.

He clicked on the content of the text message. The background of the picture was a remote corner of the laboratory. Bloodstains on the wall could be vaguely seen, as well as the contents of the attached documents: reports on the disappearance of several researchers and their names.

At this time, the Weeping Angel No. [-], which originally protected White, also turned back under Pinkman's order, and continued to attack the Unicorn Fairy.

And its fate was that it was locked in the eyes of the unicorn fairy early in the air, and turned into a stone in vain—this bug once again proved its high IQ and ease of use.

"I see……"

White quickly guessed what his colleagues wanted to convey to him: before the unicorn invaded the containment room that was under surveillance, it had already attacked and eaten several researchers.

According to the characteristics shown by the unicorn fairy, it will devour and absorb the superior special attributes of food, and the most prominent attribute of human beings is...

"It ate the brains of those human elites, so they want to remind me not to underestimate this guy's IQ..."

White came to a complete conclusion, and stared at the worm-shaped creature on the other side of the glass, and coveted this life form that is constantly plundering and evolving: If it can be used by me, it’s fine, even if it’s not a relationship of allegiance what!

But obviously, the unicorn fairy, who was poisoned by White as soon as they met, is obviously very difficult to cooperate with. With the thinking ability stolen from the researcher's brain, it judged the weeping angel who was stared into a stone statue with his own eyes just now. , is the one protecting White.

"In other words, you can no longer summon a new weeping angel, so you can only recall the old guy who protected you?"

It uttered a human voice, explaining Pinkerman's dilemma in one sentence.

"Damn!"

Pinkman is not a moody big guy, his annoyed expression has already betrayed himself.

"As expected, as long as there are no new angels, then as long as you don't take your eyes off the first crying angel, you can kill the kid's body. It's not difficult!"

Although the idea of ​​the unicorn sounds difficult, the actual operation is very simple: because it can hear the sound to identify the position, it only needs to keep facing the crying angel, and continuously reduce the distance from Pinkman to enter an effective attack Once within the range, rely on the speed of looting from the Platinum Star to explode and injure people.

At that time, even if the Weeping Angel lifts the status of the stone statue, it will not be able to speed up to save the life of the stand-in messenger.

The only hidden danger of this plan is: due to the constant hope of victory, the toxicity in the Unicorn Immortal's body is getting stronger and stronger, and its functions are also constantly declining. It must hurry up.

Therefore, White and Pinkman saw the unicorn walking backwards and approaching in a weird posture with its back to Pinkman, and they all guessed its thoughts.

Just when White was burning with anxiety, the phone in his hand rang again inappropriately.

But this time, White had almost lost his mind, and was expecting a savior to help him, so he dialed the call button reflexively.

An enthusiastic male voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hello, Director White, I'm Fabiel Valentine!"
