Chapter 217
The flashing eyes of Long Yuan and Langdon made Ma Liao subconsciously feel that something was wrong, but compared to the unobvious emotional expression of the two of them, Xuan Xiao's reaction was a bit obvious.
Although Xuan Xiao's personality is the most extroverted among the three primary schools, and he is also relatively selfish, but this definitely does not mean that he is irritable and has no sense of proportion.
Even, as the only tenth-rank king of the Animal Federation and the general of the Cosmic Alliance, he can be hot-tempered, but he is calm and sharp when dealing with problems.
No star pirate has ever escaped his fleet.
If it was just a king with a violent personality, it would be impossible for him to be recognized by so many powerful people in the universe and worshiped by animals in the Animal Federation.
Therefore, Xuan Xiao's behavior and what he said are obviously not right now.
Ma Liao looked up at him, wanting to say something to calm him down.As a result, his own words were filled with a bit of impatience: "Catch them all at this time, are you going to be a public enemy? Use your brain and don't be so impulsive. And, with your current Like, can you catch them all?"
After saying this, Ma Liao paused again.He didn't think it was very pleasant to say, but his mood was indeed a little irritable.He closed his eyes and tried to calm down his emotions, and then talked to Xuan Xiao properly, but his words ignited the tiger firecracker like sparks.
The red-haired teenager-like king turned his head suddenly, and his ruby-like pupils stared at him at this moment: "What do you mean by that? Why can't I catch them now? As long as I want to , none of the mushrooms here can escape my grasp!"
"On the contrary, you are a weak human being. If you hadn't limited our upper limit of strength, you would think, uh!"
Xuan Xiao stopped abruptly in the middle of his words, and Ma Liao mercilessly stuffed a despondent mushroom into his mouth.
However, the almost invincible mushroom didn't seem to have much effect in this place. After eating the mushroom, Xuan Xiao's eyes were still red and his body was full of rage, but it was finally better than the state just now.
Ma Liao looked at him with his eyes open at this moment, but did not speak.Because now his own emotions seem to be unstable and a little anxious, he is afraid to say anything emotional.So just look at people.
Xuan Xiao looked at Ma Liao's dark pupils, his face became gloomy again in an instant, and he cursed in a low voice in an animal language that no one could understand.Then he took the initiative to take three steps back, thought for a while and then took two steps forward and stretched out his hand: "Give me some mushrooms, let's split up and investigate."
He obviously also discovered his emotional problems and the possible tricks in this place, so he decided to stabilize his emotions first and stay away from Ma Liao for the sake of safety.
If he can't control his emotions well, it is very likely that he will say something nasty when he disagrees with him, and even speaking is not a problem. If you move your hands, it's all pretty bad results.
Looking at Xuan Xiao's eyes and expression, Ma Liao knew what Xuan Xiao was thinking, without hesitation, he drew a backpack, a few mushrooms and five bottles of energy spring water for him on the spot.
"If you find a clue, gather in front of this colorful mushroom house at night."
Xuan Xiao stroked his flame-like hair, then smiled, took the quilt, turned around and left.Also left a rather hateful words.
"Without you, I will definitely find enough clues. You should be careful."
Ma Liao looked at Xuan Xiao's leaving back and frowned slightly, and then he felt that his mood became more anxious and dissatisfied.
He feels that the current situation is a bit like schizophrenia. He obviously feels something is wrong and feels that he should be vigilant and change, but he seems to be unable to control his emotions and keeps slipping towards the bad side.
Ma Liao shook his head fiercely. If this is the final difficulty of this city checkpoint, then it is really troublesome. He feels that he has already controlled his emotions very well, but now he is a little out of control K sleep.
When Ma Liao was thinking this way, Long Yuan and Langdon Dahl beside him both spoke.
"The unknown virus K infection source should be able to K-infect nerve cells, and transmit or even amplify some negative emotions to the life it can touch."
Long Yuan's voice was a bit cold: "Xuan Xiao has been affected. It's good for him to leave at this time, it's easier to calm down and think when he's alone."
Landon Dahl said beside him: "The influence of this kind of negative emotion is very difficult to defend against, and this unknown virus probably relies on the entire ninth-level cell life, and probably also borrowed the power of suppression in its domain, otherwise Xuan Xiao would not There will be such a big reaction... and, "
He paused here before looking at Ma Liao: "Perhaps Long Yuan and I will be affected in the future, and if I find something wrong, I will take the initiative to leave. In short, control my emotions and speed up the search for the source of the K dye." Bar."
Ma Liao paused for a moment, then nodded silently.
Sure enough, they were all affected.It's just that he really didn't expect that the last level of competition would be "mental and emotional control".
Knowing the danger hidden in the dark here, Ma Liao, Longyuan, and Langdon Dahl went to explore other places in the mushroom forest.
Ma Liao carefully rummaged through the small mushrooms that looked like lawns and flowers, and found that they were good and bad, infected and normal, the good and bad mixed together made it difficult to distinguish their current conditions.And there are no special differences in these small mushrooms, and there is a suspected source of infection, which makes the mushroom picking brother Ma hard to hide his disappointment.
Afterwards, we investigated the green mushrooms with pointed umbrellas like trees on the roadside, the white mushrooms growing in the fields, and the idle mushrooms wandering around the square. The small mushrooms are almost the same, half of them are infected and half of them are uninfected, and the negative emotions of infected are also different.
In short, it is easy to find those infected mushrooms, but it is difficult to find the "initial K source" from these infected mushrooms.
Time passed quickly, and Ma Liao noticed that the sky had turned yellow. He glanced at the group of mushrooms that looked like ice and snow crystals by the pool in front of him, sighed, and said to Longyuan and Langdon next to him. :
"Let's go ahead and take another look today. If you don't find anything, go back first and think about whether there are any clues that we missed."
Naturally, Long Yuan and Langdon did not object, and the three of them came to the group of ice and snow mushrooms by the pool.
When he came here, Ma Liao obviously felt the change in temperature. Apart from the change in temperature, he was also surprised to find that his mood seemed to have changed——
The annoyance and anxiety that had accumulated throughout the day were actually reduced a lot when K came here, and even his mind and emotions became calm together.
Ma Liao used his mental power to carefully scan the icy and snowy mushroom bushes, and was a little surprised to find that all the icy and snowy mushrooms here were... mushrooms dyed by K.
This was really beyond his expectation.
But thinking about it again, it doesn't seem to be a big deal, after all, there are already too many infected mushrooms in this mushroom forest.
Yes, there is nothing surprising about this at all, it's just being infected by K. As long as you are in this mushroom forest, you will be infected by K sooner or later, so don't worry too much about it.
After all, it has nothing to do with him.
When Ma Liao thought of the last sentence, he felt something was wrong again.
You can't say it has nothing to do with him, can you?He is the one who wants to investigate the source of infection.
But now he felt that finding the source of the infection didn't seem to have much to do with him. Even if he couldn't find the source and couldn't pass the level, wouldn't there be those who would follow up?
This world and the universe can turn around without anyone, he is just a speck of dust in the universe, why bother with his own business?
Ma Liao thought of this and even wanted to sit down and stay here, but he froze suddenly.
After wiping his face with his hand, he clicked lightly.
Although I really want to be a mushroom that has nothing to do with me, but...it's not time to rest yet.
Ninety percent of those who traveled hundreds of miles had traveled nine out of ten cities, and half of them hadn't been completed yet.
So Ma Liao sighed and walked forward while shaking his head. He really understood the feeling of wanting salted fish and mushrooms every day, but every day he had to remind himself that he couldn't really go down with salted fish and mushrooms.
Not to mention other emotions, but he is quite able to bear this kind of emotion.
Ma Liao thought about walking forward, but only heard the footsteps of two people.
Surprised in his heart, he turned around and turned around, a pair of proud golden pupils came into view, Long Yuan followed behind him condescendingly, looking at him as if he was looking at a... weak and poor?
But this is not the point.
The point is, Landon Dahl, who was supposed to be behind him, disappeared completely at this moment.
The gem tree, who was always gentle and warm by his side like an elf prince, was standing among the snow and ice mushroom bushes, looking at him with eyes almost as indifferent as ice and snow.
As if he was a completely irrelevant existence.
Cold and ruthless.
Ma Liao paused and closed his eyes fiercely before opening them again. Compared with Xuan Xiao leaving anxiously and violently, Langdon's silent departure was even more difficult to let go.
Ma Liao suddenly felt that his heart was extremely blocked, he took two steps forward and looked at Langdon Dahl: "...Langdon, you..."
Landon Dahl stood in the snow and ice, and it seemed that even his words were tinged with the coldness of the snow and ice.
"Sorry, I was affected."
"It's probably not suitable for me to go out with you now, or I might say something that hurts you."
"Let's separate first, and I will find you when I feel better."
Ma Liao pursed his lips, he wanted to say something more, but when he saw Langdon's eyes, he didn't know what to say.
In the end he nodded and said, "Then you must be careful not to get hurt... I'll draw you some more mushrooms and energy spring water."
Langdon looked at him quietly, with a faint smile on his face, but what he said was: "It's okay, I can still protect myself here."
Ma Liao's outstretched fingers froze slightly.
Then he silently withdrew his fingers, glanced at Landon Dahl again, and finally turned and left.
Standing there, Landon Dahl watched Ma Liao's leaving back, and suddenly frowned, and annoyance and worry flashed in his dark green pupils.
The rest of the way was silent.
Ma Liao felt that his emotions seemed to have reached a trough.He knew that this was wrong, that he should be affected by the hidden source of K contamination, but he couldn't break free from this emotion for the time being.
And as if to add insult to injury to his already bad mood, the originally clear sky suddenly became gloomy, and then the dense, icy drizzle fell.
Ma Liao: "...tsk."
At this moment, Ma Liao suddenly opened his eyes wide and turned around sharply again.Suddenly he couldn't even hear Long Yuan's footsteps?
It's just that after he turned around, he still bumped into those golden pupils.He didn't leave, and he didn't stay where he was.
"You, you didn't leave."
Ma Liao was inexplicably ashamed.
Long Yuan stood in the rain, his arrogance belonging to the royal family was undoubtedly revealed, as if his whole body was filled with the aura of repelling others thousands of miles away.
However, under Ma Liao's gaze, he walked to him step by step, gently raised his right hand above his head and shook hands slightly, and a light golden energy umbrella covered the two of them.
"Why go? I don't want to go, so nothing can make me go."
"I am right beside you."
So, there is nothing to be afraid of, and nothing to be sad about.
Ma Liao opened his eyes slightly, and then Long Yuan reached out and grabbed his arm and walked forward.
"Don't be in a daze. Think about where the problem is. I don't like people who don't work hard."
Ma Liao: ...
For a moment just now, he almost had the feeling that he was attracted and touched by this person.
Thinking about it now, that was probably the illusion of beating the workers.
Little Ma rolled his eyes.
Then, the negative emotions seemed to be reduced by half in an instant.
When he returned to the mushroom house with Long Yuan, even though Xuan Xiao didn't show up on time, he wasn't too worried or depressed.
However, although.
He really needs to think about where the problem is, and think about the results of today's investigation carefully, and what is ready to come out.
The author has something to say: The illusion of beating a worker—the boss likes me.
Boss: I'm just looking to see why you didn't work hard.
Ryongyeon: This is not an illusion.This king is the boss, are you dissatisfied?
