Chapter 445 Help [5000 Monthly Vote Please]
Lin Mo always listens to others' advice.
In the past, the fat man often muttered that he was advised to eat enough. Lin Mo asked the fat man who said such philosophical words, and the fat man said it was his grandma.
Lin Mo thought the old man was right.
So he immediately gave up the idea of exploring the mirror.
Calculating the time, three days have passed since he boarded the Glutton. In the real world, he also slept for three consecutive days.
Since Nie Hong said that once he boarded the Gluttonian, he would still be on this ship when he dreamed again, then there was no need for Lin Mo to stay on this ship all the time.
He spoke to Nie Hong, then took out a breakaway bean and ate it.
In an instant, Lin Mo escaped successfully.
When he opened his eyes again, he was still in the luxurious five-star hotel in Tunjing City.
Lin Mo had rented a room here for at least a month and asked not to clean the room, so he had been fine lying alone in the past three days.
First he pulled out a needle inserted in his arm.
The needle section is connected to a portable nutrition machine.
It can be plugged in, and it also comes with a battery that can run for several months. It contains nutrient solution to maintain human body functions. It is specially made and is naturally the result of research by the Academy of Sciences.
It is specially developed for members of the expert group of the General Administration.
Sometimes it is necessary to perform tasks while dreaming, which may take several days or even ten days. This naturally requires some special equipment to maintain the body.
Not to starve to death.
Lin Mo called for food, ate some food, and took a good bath.
Only an hour has passed.
Lin Mo didn't plan to enter the dreamland immediately. He thought for a while, turned on the computer, wrote an email about his current understanding of the Gluttonous Overeater, and sent it to Professor Xie.
After all, he was on a business trip this time.
To Lin Mo's surprise, not long after the email was sent, his phone rang.
Professor Xie is calling.
After the call was connected, the first thing the other party asked was: "Did you board that ship?"
After receiving Lin Mo's affirmative reply, Professor Xie said that he had taken the time to check the information in the past two days. He found some information about the ship in foreign information.
"Foreign colleagues are said to have discovered this strange black ship six months ago. They sent people to board it, and then they were never contacted again."
There was a hint of worry in Professor Xie's tone.
Since I knew nothing about the Glutton, it was normal to be worried.
Lin Mo, on the other hand, felt quite comfortable after staying on the ship for a few days. The ship was big and spacious, and he had good friends accompanying him, which made him feel good.
The most important thing is that Lin Mo likes the setting of 'swallowing the soul of the sword'.
He is a game fan, and his favorite thing is to fight monsters and upgrade, and constantly breaking knives and devouring those sword souls can not only strengthen his tiger bone sickle, but also get part of the corresponding memory.
So when it comes to understanding that ship, Lin Mo now has a lot of say.
"I guess those foreign colleagues were brought to the table." Lin Mo joked.
"Has it been brought to the table?" Professor Xie didn't understand.
Lin Mo explained the situation.
For example, the livestock area, the slaughterhouse, the spacious kitchen on the ship and all kinds of delicious food.
Professor Xie was surprised after hearing this.
"Sure enough, I knew it!" Professor Xie was obviously very excited about this discovery. It seemed that Lin Mo's discovery confirmed some of his guesses.
"The nightmare world has long existed. We have known this for a long time, and now it is even more proven that some nightmares already have a certain social class. Although this structure is very special, it is generally very similar to humans."
Lin Mo had actually realized this a long time ago.
Attack Wenjun's old house, Black Sheep Mansion, and Guimen Village.
These are things that really existed in history and people that really existed.
The specific things involved too many areas. Lin Mo was not a professional researcher, so he was too lazy to explore. He informed Professor Xie of the news, intending to let Professor Xie and the others conduct further analysis and research.
Moreover, Professor Xie and his colleagues have a wide range of sources of information, including contacts with colleagues abroad.
Speaking of which, the Glutton seems to be docking at various ports around the world, so naturally people from other places have boarded the ship.
Lin Mo felt that at least some of them got off the ship alive.
Then the intelligence of these people is very important. Maybe various fragmentary clues can eventually piece together the truth about the mysterious ship, the Glutton.
No need for Lin Mo to remind him, Professor Xie thought the same way.
"Lin Mo, you are still on the boat, right?" Professor Xie asked.
"Yes, once you get on that ship, you will appear on the ship the next time you dream."
"Very good, let's make an agreement. Every day you will inform me of the news on the ship. I will help you analyze it. I will then contact my colleagues abroad to try to exchange more clues."
"Once a day? No, the frequency is too high. I'm lazy. How about three days? Let's contact you once every three days."
"Okay, but you have to pay attention to your own safety. Turn on the life detector and turn on the locator for me. If something happens to your kid, we can know it in time and save you."
"Okay, that's the end of this call!"
Lin Mo hung up the phone.
Obviously Professor Xie is very worried about him.
There may also be something to do with Lin Nan.
Next, Lin Mo went online and checked the news and news of the past few days.
Although there are quite a few, none of them concern Lin Mo. Looking at the news, the safety zones in several other big cities are almost completed.
However, calculating the total amount, it is still too small for China, which has a vast land, abundant resources, and a large population, and is a drop in the bucket.
So just a few days ago, officials from above issued a document to increase efforts to support individuals, businesses and social groups in establishing small safe zones.
Not only verbal support, but also 'technical support' and 'interest-free loans' were provided for this purpose.
Lin Mo didn't need to worry about this matter, Fatty would definitely start working on it.
It is said that Fatty started recruiting more talents.
The requirements are very high, and they must graduate from a world-famous school. From this point of view, their Happy Life Company has begun to get on the right track, and Lin Mo is very pleased.
As for the recent nightmare pollution incidents, they have also increased a lot. You can already feel it from the news and self-media. If you look at the statistics table in the General Administration's internal publication, you can see this rising curve more intuitively.
The growth rate is very scary.
The last page of the internal magazine is a countdown.
The meaning of the countdown is that the nightmare world finally arrives, that is, the whole world is completely invaded by the nightmare world.
In the beginning, there were still more than 300 days left in this time.
Logically speaking, it should be one day more and one less day.
But that’s not the case with this countdown.
Sometimes, after a day, the number above will be reduced by two.
If we rule out the possibility that the guy who made this countdown is too exaggerated in his math, then this means that the nightmare world will completely come sooner than initially estimated.
As for how much faster it will be, it's hard to say.
It could be closer to a month.
Maybe in two days, this countdown will be cleared.
Time is running out.
Anyone in the Security Bureau who has permission to see the internal publication will have this thought every time they see this countdown.
So everyone is racing against time.
After retrieving the news, Lin Mo thought for a while and then logged into the internal database of the General Administration.
The query permission of this database is set very high, and generally experts from the General Administration do not have permission to view it.
Lin Mo has.
Because he is now a fifth-level researcher of the Academy of Sciences.
According to the authority classification, he has higher authority than Chen Bing.
The database records contaminated areas and nightmares that have been discovered and archived.
It is not limited to China.
Many foreign regions and nightmares will also have some, but they will certainly not be particularly complete.
Lin Mo looked at the map first.
He wanted to figure out the Glutton's route.
But it is impossible to figure out this matter at present. There is no calibration object. At present, it will take a few more days at the earliest to find out when the ship docks at the next port.
Lin Mo printed out a map, then drew a circle around the location of Swallowing Whale City and marked it with the number 14.
This stands for Pier 14.
According to the order, the next stop is Pier 15.
"By the way, Nie Hong said that to snatch the existence of the butcher's knife, the last time we got off the ship at Pier 18, we docked at one place every seven days, so it would take almost a month to get to Pier 18."
Lin Mo felt that he had to tell the butcher about this.
If the butcher wanted to retrieve his knife, Lin Mo would help.
If you promise something to others, you must do it.
Lin Mo thought about it, and next he had to plot the route of the Glutton. This was undoubtedly a very difficult and arduous task.
Next, Lin Mo searched for the nightmare codename 'Countess'.
He was just trying it out and didn't have much hope.
But what I didn't expect was that it was actually found.
"Nightmare codename: Countess, Nightmare in the Land of Thousand Birds, rated A+. Time of birth, unknown. Originated from a local horror legend that has been circulating for hundreds of years. The cruel countess hopes to stay young forever with the help of the blood of virgins. In this In the monster’s castle, there are blood baths and countless corpses.”
Lin Mo didn't know if the countess in the database was the one on the ship.
Just assume it is.
Then the other party should have boarded the Glutton at least nine months ago.
The most important thing is that the Gluttonous Eater will dock in the Land of Thousand Islands.
This is very important information.
Lin Mo found the location of Thousand Islands on the map, which was very far away from Swallowing Whale City. He circled it with a pen and drew a question mark.
Because Lin Mo didn't know the port number of this place.
After all this happened last night, Lin Mo searched for information about the captain again.
Just as he expected.
no data.
After turning off the computer, Lin Mo looked at the time and it was almost up.
He had been away for two hours and it was time to go back.
After setting up the intelligent monitoring equipment and life support system, Lin Mo closed his eyes and fell asleep again.
In room 411, Lin Mo turned around and found Nie Hong lying next to him.
She stared at Lin Mo intently with her weird big eyes.
"Have you seen Xiaorou recently?" Nie Hong asked.
There are actually two consciousnesses in Nie Hong's body.
One is the eldest lady in the Black Sheep Mansion; the other is Nie Hong, a female college student who was killed by a kid from a rich family. (This part is introduced in the Black Sheep Mansion chapter)
Xiaorou is her sister.
After experiencing the Black Sheep Mansion incident with Lin Mo, he was introduced to work in the Security Bureau.
Currently receiving training at the General Administration.
Lin Mo told Nie Hong the situation, and the latter nodded: "I really envy you. You have living flesh and blood and can see the world of living people."
"This is nothing to envy. From now on, I will arrange for you and Xiaorou to live in my community and give you a big house." Lin Mo issued an invitation.
"Okay, then I will rely on you to support me from now on!" Nie Hong smiled charmingly.
Lin Mo didn't agree with her.
Although this girl is gentle, pretty and alluring now, she is also very scary when it comes to terror. Lin Mo still remembers the three rows of sharp fangs in Nie Hong's mouth when they first met.
At this time, Lin Mo heard movement in the house.
"Is there anyone else?" Lin Mo was still very wary and immediately sat up.
Nie Hong didn't move.
"The pet you raised, as he said himself, is a very cute rabbit. I like it." After Nie Hong said this, Lin Mo knew what was going on.
It's a rabbit in a cardboard box.
"Did you let it out?"
"Yeah, I was bored. I saw a cardboard box and went over to look at it. I found a rabbit inside. It said it was your little brother and told me not to mess around. I thought it was interesting, so I let it out." Nie Hong spread her hands to show that she had done nothing wrong.
Lin Mo was a little surprised.
Nie Hong could actually touch the cardboard box.
This cardboard box has a very weird temperament. If you don't like it or have nightmares, you can't touch it at all. This thing will teleport, just like magnets with like poles that repel each other, and they will never be able to touch each other.
Unless it wants you to touch it.
"It seems like it likes you." Lin Mo said.
Nie Hong didn't know why and thought Lin Mo was talking about the rabbit.
"That rabbit is very rogue." Nie Hong said, but she didn't say what kind of rogue he was.
But at this moment, there was a strange clicking sound outside, and then the rabbit screamed: "Help, help!"
Lin Mo and Nie Hong reacted quickly.
The two men immediately rushed to the house outside.
They saw that the mirror, which was originally covered with a thick scarlet cloth, was uncovered. The thick cloth fell to the ground, and the assassin had cracks on the mirror.
The rabbit was just dragged in by a dark shadow.
"I'm going to die, I'm going to die!" The rabbit was so frightened that snot bubbles came out of his nose. When he saw Lin Mo, he seemed to have seen a savior, but before he could say anything, he was swung into the mirror.
Lin Mo glanced at Nie Hong.
The latter shook his head innocently: "I didn't tell it any taboos."
Lin Mo was very fast. He stepped forward and reached out to grab it.
But it was all in vain.
The cracks on the mirror were slowly and automatically repaired at this moment, as if they had never appeared.
There seemed to be nothing unusual about the mirror at the moment.
Can project a human shadow.
Lin Mo observed the mirror carefully at this time.
Oval shape, wooden frame, beautifully made and tasteful, it can even be regarded as a work of art.
At first glance, it looks like something with age.
"Based on that rabbit's strength, it might not survive five minutes in there." Nie Hong came over and said something. Seeing Lin Mo's lack of reaction, she asked, "Aren't you going to save your pet?"
Lin Mo shook his head: "That's not my pet!"
"Whatever, if you don't plan on locking, put a cloth on it as soon as possible, otherwise something terrible will happen." Nie Hong made a ghostly movement with her hands.
Lin Mo suddenly remembered something at this time.
"By the way, you said last time that you met Mr. Xi Wen, was it in the mirror world?"
"Who is Xi Wenjun?" Nie Hong had a question mark on his face.
Lin Mo pointed to his forehead.
This time, Nie Hong reacted immediately.
"You mean, that woman?" Nie Hong's expression suddenly became very solemn.
She nodded.
"good!"
"That's right, I haven't seen Sister Wenjun for a long time. It's weird. If you have nothing to do, take me to find her." After saying that, Lin Mo couldn't help but hold Nie Hong's hand. .
"I'm not going." Before Nie Hong could finish speaking, a hand suddenly stretched out from the mirror, grabbed Lin Mo, and pulled Lin Mo in forcefully.
And she was pulled by Lin Mo.
So it was like pulling a train, we were pulled in together.
Lin Mo had just observed this mirror.
The projection of myself inside is a ghost.
Although the other party imitated it very much, Lin Mo could still tell that the other party seemed to be waiting for an opportunity to attack. Lin Mo didn't take precautions because he had already planned it.
Seeing that the other party was about to take action, he seized the opportunity and dragged Nie Hong into it.
In an instant, the two entered the mirror world.
There was a strange laugh in my ears.
"I found it. I found the scapegoat. I can finally go out." These ghostly words were spoken by Lin Mo's projection, but soon, it discovered that something was wrong.
The guy he dragged in seemed not to be afraid.
And the look in his eyes clearly showed a hint of excitement. What the hell?
It seems that the other party is quite happy.
Damn it!
"Maybe I haven't reacted yet." Guiying smiled.
On this ship, they did not dare to provoke those powerful beings.
But there are not many powerful ones.
And, they all remember.
They will never actively provoke them. In addition, they can all attack, whether it is a strong pig-headed monster or a boatman with some abilities.
As long as you are dragged into the mirror world, you can basically just let them knead you.
Because here, they have an inherent advantage.
"Darkness, suffocation, shadow insects, after experiencing these, no matter how strong you are, you can only kneel down and cry." The ghost smiled sinisterly, and the next moment, its body turned into darkness, and then swallowed up the surrounding space in an instant.
All of a sudden, I fell into absolute darkness.
I can't see my fingers.
And in this darkness, you can't breathe, and there will be countless ghost insects biting you.
No one can bear it.
Ten seconds later!
call!
A burst of fire tore through the darkness.
The surrounding area became brighter under the firelight. Looking over there, Lin Mo was pinching the neck of a figure.
The one who was pinched was the ghost just now.
Lin Mo thought this guy could come up with some new tricks, but didn't expect this?
In darkness, Lin Mo not only has ghost eyes, he also has bricks and lighters, which can create a large flame at any time; suffocation, this vampire curse is immune to; insect bites, learn about the steel curse.
The opponent's three-axe was of no use to Lin Mo.
But on the other hand, Lin Mo could suppress this ghost with any curse.
