Weird Stories: Gothic Lolita Begins

The island is not small. On the side facing the cruise ship, after a few dozen meters of wide beach, there is a lush tropical jungle.

If possible, Lenari does not want to enter the jungle. With her current clothes and tools, entering the jungle is purely asking for trouble.

Walking along the coast for hundreds of meters, Lenari still has a long stretch of beach in front of her, with a few small reefs protruding from the beach and the sea.

Standing on a relatively high reef, Lenari stood on tiptoe to look into the island, and of course she could not see anything.

She has discovered the most superficial abnormality of the island.

It is too quiet here, there are no insects chirping, no birds singing, which is abnormal for a jungle island of this size.

After hesitating for a moment, Lenari climbed down the reef and continued to walk along the coast.

If the participants were rational enough, they would not rashly go deep into the jungle. After all, there are many fruitful coconut trees where they landed, there are fish in the sea, and the recent weather, at least the weather forecast is optimistic.

Lenari wanted to try and see what would happen if he summoned the main body with this "character".

Regardless of whether the result was good or bad, staying away from those people was the best choice.

…

It was late at night, and the faint light of the bright moon illuminated the white beach.

Lenari stopped and began to summon the main body in the way of a purifier.

This body certainly did not have holy power as the energy to start the summoning, but it didn't matter. With the close connection between the trace of consciousness that descended on this character and the main body, Lenari could let the main body "pay".

Moreover, the existence of the honorable name provided a shortcut to directly skip the summoning step.

Of course, this method also skipped the "protection measures". Unless it can be determined that the myth pointed to by the honorable name is friendly enough, it is better not to try it.

As the "character" recited his honorable name in the Green Star Common Language, Lenari's main body in the dark realm felt that the time and space coordinates of the trace of consciousness that was originally closely connected but difficult to locate, as if it was obscured by something, suddenly became clear.

Lenari's main body glanced cautiously at the "character".

Hmm...seems like, okay?

Lenari took another look.

Hmm, sure enough, there is no problem.

——This "character" is a derivative of a strange story. It's hard to say anything else, but its anti-pollution ability is first-class.

Lenari confidently used the "character" as a fulcrum, raised his perspective, and observed the overly quiet island from a distance. His idle tentacles also rolled up crystal balls, pendulums, tarot cards, commemorative silver coins and other tools to assist divination.

...

On the beach under the moon, Lenari's "character" was in deep thought.

Just now, the main body had already withdrawn its gaze.

This island really has a big problem.

There is a strange parasite on the island that will live in the human brain and slowly occupy the magpie's nest, but others can't see the abnormality.

The guests and staff on the cruise ship are no longer human.

The insect colony to which this parasite belongs is a hive mindset, where the insect mother is above everything, and the only insect mother is under the ground of this island.

The production of highly intelligent elite bugs that can perfectly replace humans and integrate into humans is not high, and only about a dozen can be produced each year.

So, they low-key lure some healthy living people by holding survival games for the elite bugs to parasitize, and then complete the replacement without knowing it.

The bonus for completing the survival game and the odds on the cruise ship are all covers and excuses for the elite bugs to help each other.

——The black zone has never lacked cruel games. If there are fancy odds to cover up, a game that is not cruel enough will not be cared about as long as it is said to be a change of taste.

After thinking for a long time, Lenari sighed and recited: "The king of nuclear energy, the master of fusion and fission, the guardian of the Green Star Federation, the lord of nuclear explosion, Barn, I have very important information."

...

It is a good weather tonight. The bright moonlight shines on the beach, the cool sea breeze blows, and the sound of waves is like a song.

After waiting for five minutes, Lenati tidied his hair that was messed up by the sea breeze, and recited in ancient rune language expressionlessly: "The king of nuclear energy, the master of fusion and fission, the guardian of the Green Star Federation, the lord of nuclear explosion, Barn."

Three minutes later, Lenati changed to another extraordinary language again and recited the same content.

Language has power.

Even if it is the Green Star Common Language that has been improved several times and deliberately kept away from the extraordinary, as long as it is still a language, this power will not disappear, but will only be reduced.

Therefore, as long as you use a real and meaningful language, and understand what it means, you can usually sense it by reciting the honorific name of the corresponding myth.

- Unless the corresponding myth is very, very dull.Lenari changed several powerful supernatural languages ​​that were indispensable in magic research, and finally got a response when he used the "elemental spiritual language" that was biased towards the elements and nature.

"Who are you?" A deep and majestic "voice" sounded in Lenari's mind.

"Lenari's clone." Lenari said expressionlessly.

"......?"

Feeling the confusion that Barn's consciousness unconsciously conveyed, Lenari was too lazy to explain and said to himself: "I found on this island..."

"Just tell me, do you care?" Lenari asked expressionlessly.

"Of course!" Barn said, "You leave first, or I send someone to pick you up?"

"No, this body is just a derivative of a strange story, and it has no value except for playing." Lenari paused and said with a little expectation, "Come with a gorgeous explosion for me to see?"

"... Nuclear explosions are not a joke." Barn said speechlessly.

"Don't tell me that your fusion explosion needs to be detonated by fission?" Lenari teased.

"... That's not necessary." Barn said, "'Feel the nuclear explosion up close' or something... Are you sure you want to try it?"

"Of course!" Lenari said firmly, "It's just a trace of my consciousness that's here. Even if it's blown up, it will recover after a good sleep."

"Okay, wait a minute." Barn said, "I'll go say hello and pinpoint the location."

"What location? Isn't it enough for you to pinpoint me by repeating my name over and over again?" Lenari said.

"... Repeatedly?" Barn, who was far away in the underground base of the Dezette Desert, suddenly had a bad premonition.

"Yes! I just used Green Star Common Language, Ancient Rune Language... Elemental Spirit Language and other languages ​​to call you here." Reiner said expressionlessly, "You are so slow, it's simply..."

"Ahem!" Barn interrupted quickly, "I'm trying to make up for it... It seems that I will succeed this time. The culture of Xia Country is really amazing. You should study it when you have time."

"The Black and Red Theater is my territory... What do you think my original body has been doing after self-isolation?"
