The Final Story of Miss Weird

"Don't be afraid, because you are all newcomers. Don't you think about it? Would a normal person go crazy if he heard about the environment that existed ninety years later?" Eve glanced at Cen Xiangyun, and her eyes seemed to ask if she was stupid. "Of course there is a reason why I am in this situation."

Then, her tone became a little more serious.

"I... experienced a boundary collapse, experienced it myself, and recognized it."

Boundaries collapse.

This term, which has been heard by everyone who has come into contact with the concept of boundary, is a disaster within a boundary second only to annihilation.

Needless to say, this situation would be an unimaginable disaster.

What’s worse is that Eve realized it.

It has to be said that this was an extremely unfortunate thing for Eve, who was still quite weak at the time.

In fact, even with Eve's current strength, if she experiences what happened back then again, the outcome will probably not be much better.

"The company has locked up this part of my memory, and it will be unlocked when I am strong enough. Unfortunately, something went wrong today." At this point, Eve's expression showed a little regret, which was rare. "This kind of medicine that blocks cognitive confusion is expensive. It costs me half a month's salary to take it once..."

"So expensive?" Cen Xiangyun, who knew the approximate salary situation, was shocked. "And there are only two hours?"

"Yes, because the raw materials are highly dangerous and mysterious holy relics." Eve nodded.

In addition to the promotion path, the Holy Relics can also produce holy medicines with corresponding effects based on their ability characteristics, but this requires a very high level of technical skills for pharmacists.

"There is also bad news. Even if the hatchery barrier does not affect our cognition, the impact still exists." At this time, Luo Ling said in a deep voice.

She pointed to a small puddle on the ground, left over from a recent rainfall.

Everyone curiously leaned over to take a look and were immediately shocked.

The reflection in the puddle was that of several old ladies.

"It's hard. Could it be that our current appearance is fake?" Cen Xiangyun immediately became flustered. "The real us have been turned into a group of old women by the hatchery barrier?"

"Not including me."

Luo Ling looked at the gray shadow in the puddle and was silent for a while.

Seems like I've seen it somewhere...

Or is this her true nature?

"That's not the case. I can be sure of that." Lu Manqing shook his head and said, "As a doctor, I know my own condition very well. There is no sign of aging at all."

“Perhaps, the hatchery itself has a distorted perception of us.”

Eve stared at the puddle without moving her eyes away. Her gaze was not on the old ladies, but on the other environment above the puddle.

Even, you can see some other figures walking by...

The people coming and going were all in a hurry, but some of them would stop, as if they were curious about these old ladies who were staring at the puddles.

Eve stood up and saw nothing around her except for some tumbleweeds blowing by the roadside.

Is the person reflected in the puddle trapped in the hatchery, or is he just a simulation of the hatchery, or... is he not a person at all?

"Everyone, I'm afraid this is not a commission that a novice team can handle." Eve said in a deep voice, "Since we know where the boundaries of the hatchery are, we should leave as soon as possible. I will apply to the office for a formal team to deal with this strange hatchery."

The Wellington office's motto was fight or flight.

Now is the time to run.

Luo Ling felt that this sounded familiar, but Eve was right.

Even if Luo Ling wanted to see what was going on in this hatchery, other people didn't have her ability. Besides, it would be best not to use the ability to back up one's identity, as it would be very troublesome if one exposed one's identity.

but...

"Hasn't it been dealt with yet?"

Luo Ling turned his head and looked at Elsa who was lying on his back. She had been drowsy and half asleep since just now.

A similar situation had occurred before in Baiyan Village, but it got better after her consciousness processed the perception of the weirdness.

But he hasn't woken up completely yet, and Luo Ling feels vaguely uneasy.

What kind of being is the "egg" hatched in this incubator?

At least, it should be stronger than the Bai Lingzhi at that time...

After deciding to run away, the few of them did not waste any more time.

Cen Xiangyun also cared about Elsa's condition and was relieved when she learned that she was not seriously injured.

In fact, this team is nominally led by Eve, but the one who really acts as the captain is Cen Xiangyun. Her strength is just not that good, but... relatively speaking, she is much more reliable.

Of course, her strength is not that good only compared to the few perverts in this team. Among the employees of the same level in the company, Cen Xiangyun can be regarded as a leader.

By walking back along the path in the photo and comparing them, you can find that there is indeed a big gap between the photo and reality. It’s just that it is difficult for Luo Ling and others who are not familiar with Victoria to recognize it.

only...

It was not until everyone reached the border of the photo that they suddenly realized that the situation did not seem to have improved at all.

The hatchery detector Elsa was still in a coma, and Luo Ling still had a sense of disorientation as if he was in a strange place.

more importantly...

This should be a prosperous area, but it is strangely deserted.

Looking up, it is still dawn, and the pale sky on the skyline is like a painting hanging high.

"Haven't we reached the border yet?" Cen Xiangyun frowned. Comparing the location in the photo, they should have reached it.

"Let's go back a little further."

Eve's expression became much uglier.

So, they headed back to their starting point, which was Wellington Manor.

Until they entered Wellington Manor, there was still no human figure around, and a terrifying atmosphere gradually enveloped everyone.

...and still didn't make it out of the hatchery.

Eve was silent for a while, then continued walking forward at a much faster pace.

Luo Ling and others followed her.

However, until an hour passed, the situation had not changed.

Eve was silent for a while, picked up the camera that Lu Manqing hung around his neck, raised it slightly, and took a picture.

After a while, the Polaroid photos were slowly sent out.

Even in black and white photos, you can see the clear afternoon sun shining slowly, and the bustling crowds of people around, all of them nobles in gorgeous clothes.

In front of Luo Ling and others was just an ordinary house, but in the photo it was a luxuriously decorated cafe, and couples could vaguely be seen walking in pairs in the cafe.

"Bad news, everyone." Eve's voice was trembling slightly, she was terrified that she couldn't escape. "I'm afraid this is not an ordinary hatchery...

"If it is the worst case scenario, its owner... may be a high-risk weirdo."

Luo Ling: “…”

Just say that there are always problems with novice missions!

However, Luo Ling still had some doubts in her heart, why did she happen to meet him?

...It can't be her problem, right?

"I'm not familiar with other high-risk monsters..."

Luo Ling curled her lips, but at this time everyone's attention was obviously not on her, but they looked at Eve in shock.

"Why do you take my camera so confidently?"

"High-risk and weird? The White Witch?"

Well, still not on a channel.

"I don't know." Eve was a little confused. "But the holy medicine I have may not be enough. Who of you will carry me later?"

"Is this the time to think about this?"

"I'm sorry, Miss Cen." Eve nodded apologetically, then looked at Lu Manqing, "Miss Lu, I'll give you a brand new photography manual and a set of film when I get back. How about you help me?"

"Really? Okay, okay."

"I said you..."

A heavy feeling of powerlessness came over her, and Cen Xiangyun just felt that she was really tired.

Fortunately, Luo Ling saved the situation. She looked at the photo and whispered,

"Perhaps, our situation is not that bad..."

"Don't set any flags, sister. If you say something like that, you will probably encounter worse things." Cen Xiangyun said with a dejected look on her face.

What's wrong? What went wrong? Why is she in such a small team?

"Ms. Eve, the reason why you think this is a high-risk and weird hatchery is because this hatchery covers the entire Victoria, right?" Luo Ling asked.

"Yeah, that's about it." Eve nodded, "Even if it's not the entire thing, even if it's only one-tenth of it, it's still on a high-risk and weird scale.

"But... this is the worst case scenario. It's probably the incarnation of some dangerous weird, or high-risk weird."

Victoria is not a city, but a region, which includes eighteen urban areas, large areas of wilderness and towns, not including other places within the current boundaries.

In other words, one-tenth of Victoria is larger in area than Jiangcheng County.

From the beginning till now, Luo Ling and others have walked through most of the city, but still haven't found the border.

"Perhaps we have made a mistake." Luo Ling said, "My guess may not be correct, but it's worth a listen.

"The place we are in is not actually the hatchery, nor is it Victoria. It's just... in our memory?"

A frozen dawn, an unchanging skyline, and empty neighborhoods.

As a person with the power to play with memories, Luo Ling is very sensitive to the things imprinted in his mind.

The layers of memories are the most deceiving of oneself. Even if Luo Ling and others were to chase all over Victoria now, they would still be trapped in the cage of memory.

but...

"If that's the case, this weirdo shouldn't be very strong, otherwise... he wouldn't just be trapping us." Luo Ling said.

She had another guess.

This was most likely not a weird hatchery, because she could clearly feel the difference between where they were now and the reflected world, and it couldn't possibly come from a weird one.

"Is this the apostle's sphere of influence..." Luo Ling whispered in his heart.

As the most chaotic force in the weird side that cannot be ignored, the apostles have always been the common enemy of mankind, including the pioneers.

Because, the so-called apostles are actually...complete traitors.

Chapter 5: The Prison of Memory (k)

Weird and Weird Apostles.

Of course, Luo Ling would not put herself and Elsa into this camp. In fact, she felt that she was more like a human being rather than a weirdo. An important characteristic was that a weirdo would be limited by its own abilities and paths. Even if He had his own will, He was no exception. His sister was the best example.

But Luo Ling does not have these shackles. She is more like a human being who has acquired strange abilities, at least that is the case for now.

In fact, it is questionable whether the weird ones can be classified into this camp.

After all, the essence of weirdness is a conceptualized disaster rather than a monster in the ordinary sense. Luo Ling knows this better than anyone else.

However, the evil deeds of the Weird Apostles could not be faked. In the archives of the "Company", the disasters caused by the Pioneers were not even one-tenth of theirs. They were truly anti-human beings.

Luo Ling did not choose to speak out her guess, not because she intended to conceal it. After all, it was just a guess.

Let's first solve this seemingly memory dilemma.

"Memories..."

Eve pondered for a moment, thinking about the possibility of this speculation.
