Alien Relic Hunter

The language of Alpha Civilization is like an innate instinct for Ke Lan. This language has been deeply imprinted in his thinking. He said it without even thinking -

It was a very hoarse hissing sound, just like the sound made by snakes when spitting messages. It was not made by the vocal cords, or even from the throat... This hissing sound The whispers echoed in Ke Lan's brain, and except for himself, the other three seemed not to hear them at all.

"come over……"

"I order you to come over..."

He wasn't sure whether he was "talking" or just "fantasizing", but the hissing whisper became louder and clearer... Ke Lan felt as if something was lingering in his head. A giant snake is constantly swallowing bright red letters...

The next second, the black skeleton rushed towards him, its arms spread out, as if it was coming to hug Ke Lan, but the ten long and sharp bone claws were directed towards him. Folded inwards - the moment it hugs Ke Lan, Ke Lan's body will be pierced and torn apart by these ten bone claws.

Can it "hear" the whispers echoing inside its own head? Did it understand? Or... is this just a spontaneous attack that has nothing to do with its own attempts?

Ke Lan was still standing there in a daze, and Akira Asano had already rushed forward with his sword in hand. The ten bone claws and the sword made of Nino alloy had collided dozens of times in the blink of an eye - -This time, the black skeleton did not choose the strategy of retreating with one blow, but fought with Asano Akira. The continuous trembling sound replaced the crisp collision sound between the sharp blades, and the speed of both parties increased instantly. To the extreme, it even brought up a string of afterimages.

"Its target is not me!" Asano Akira said while waving his knife, "Its attack has not yet tried its best... It has been looking for opportunities to get rid of me!"

"Ke Lan, look at the posture of that thing just now, it's obviously coming towards you..." Liao Zilang raised his shield in front of Ke Lan, "This makes no sense, you didn't even attack it."

"Maybe you think I'm the weakest one...after all, you have to pick the weakest persimmon." Ke Lan made up a reason casually.

"Does this thing still have the ability to distinguish between strong and weak? It doesn't even have eyes?" Caroline said very puzzled.

"Who knows... Is there more weirdness in this thing?" Ke Lan retreated continuously under the cover of Liao Zilang. At the same time, he once again ordered the black skeleton in the language of Alpha civilization——

"Stop attacking...I order you to stop attacking immediately..."

"Ah!" Ke Lan suddenly felt a stabbing pain deep in his head. He stumbled and fell backwards to the ground... I don't know if it was an illusion. He seemed to have shifted his perspective to the body for a moment. Black skeleton body.

He seemed to see the dense sword light coming towards him, Asano Akira pursed his lips tightly, his face expressionless...

What exactly is going on?

"Are you okay?" Caroline on the side quickly helped Ke Lan up from the ground.

"It's okay... I accidentally tripped over a rivet..." Ke Lan raised his head and saw a bone claw that had been cut off from the root lying on the ground not far away. The fracture of the bone claw was very flat and smooth, vaguely visible. I saw some transparent semi-fluid substance flowing out of it and dripping on the ground.

"When did Asano Akira chop off that bone claw? Why didn't I notice it just now?" Ke Lan turned around and asked.

"Just now, the moment you fell, the thing's movements paused for a moment. Asano Akira originally wanted to cut off the spine directly, but the thing quickly recovered at the cost of a bone claw. Blocked Asano Akira's attack." Liao Zilang replied.

A moment's pause? Could it be that moment when he just changed his perspective?

Could he really invade the consciousness of that black skeleton?

Ke Lan's heartbeat couldn't help but speed up a bit. He forced himself to stand up straight and broke away from Caroline's support... If he could really invade at the consciousness level, could he control that? With a black skeleton?

Just when he tried to try again, he was shocked to find that he had temporarily lost the ability to "language" - the sharp stabbing pain just now made his mind a mess, although his consciousness was very clear. But there was a huge blank in his brain.

This blank space made him feel at a loss, as if a normal person suddenly forgot how to open his mouth to speak...

In medicine, this symptom is called "aphasia". The cause of aphasia is that the part of the patient's brain responsible for language function has been damaged or pathological. The patient cannot organize language to express his or her thoughts, nor can he or she Understand the meaning contained in other people's words.

This symptom has nothing to do with sensory organs. It is a cognitive language disorder. Just like Ke Lan now, he can recall every character and syllable in Alpha language, but he cannot connect these characters and syllables together. into a complete sentence.

This feeling was very uncomfortable. This blank space almost drove Ke Lan crazy. The unspeakable hysteria put him on the verge of collapse...

"Are you okay? You...your breathing seems to be rapid?" Caroline asked worriedly.

"I...I'm fine..." Ke Lan shook his head vigorously, but it was completely unconvincing. Not only did his breathing speed up, but his whole body began to tremble slightly.

The blank space in his brain seemed to have turned into a black hole, devouring everything crazily. The more Ke Lan paid attention to it, the faster it devoured it!

If this continues, Ke Lan's self-awareness will soon be annihilated...

no! It must stop... However, it seems that only by completely forgetting it can we slow down the speed of the black hole swallowing it. But in this case, how can we forget it?

It's like seeing something extremely terrifying. The more you want to forget it, the more profound your memory will be.

The more Ke Lan resists, the stronger the black hole's gravity becomes...

"Caroline! Give me your power armor's emergency cooling tank!" Ke Lan said through gritted teeth. His ferocious expression almost startled the female first mate.

"...W-what do you want to do?" Although Caroline asked, she still pulled out the emergency cooling tank from the slot and handed it to Ke Lan.

The emergency cooling tank contains liquid nitrogen at temperatures below zero and above 100 degrees Celsius, which is used to cool down overheated power armor in emergencies.

"Go kill that guy!" Ke Lan grabbed the cooling tank and rushed towards the black skeleton who was still fighting with Asano Akira without looking back!

Only madness can suppress madness - instead of fighting the black hole in your consciousness, it is better to just leave it behind!
