black abyss

Bai Nian arrived at sentry tower 68 three days later.

The appearance of the sentry tower is indeed like a sentry tower. When it was first established, it was to observe the unknown substance that appeared at that time. The unknown substance would lure people into the door it opened, and make everyone who entered it insane or even die.

Later, after the analysis report deconstructed by the people in the material analysis department, this thing looked like a pitch-black ball of wool on imaging, because the early experimenters felt that getting close to this material would give people a sense of terror as if they were facing an abyss. Name this unknown substance "Black Abyss".

When the black abyss was first discovered, humans only had one main sentry tower.

Even when Bai Nian's license was revoked five years ago, the number of the sentry tower at that time was only numbered 43.

In just five years, the number of black abysses has increased to 68, which is an astonishing number.

In scientific magazines, some scholars often painfully analyze that if this exponential increase continues, the place where human beings live may be completely covered by the black abyss within 100 years.

Bai Nian followed the staff into the guard tower, and walked towards the elevator leading to the treatment team floor.

The staff in the lobby who led the way smiled and pressed the door-open button of the elevator: "Team Leader Nie is waiting for you."

She showed a very standard etiquette smile, "Your consultant certificate and pass will be made for you before you get off work today."

Bai Nian glanced at her and asked, "Are you a guide or a sentinel?"

She smiled slightly: "I am a guide."

Bai Nian nodded, stepped up and left the elevator.

The elevator doors behind him closed slowly.

The floor of the treatment group is not considered high, and when the elevator hits the eye, it is an exaggerated indoor fountain.

The sculpture in the fountain is a dolphin playing in the water. The dolphin has a welcome sign on it, which reads "Welcome to the treatment team of sentry tower No. 68" very warmly.

When Bai Nian saw this thing, he really felt a little unsightly and turned his eyes away.

Before bypassing the exaggerated fountain sculpture, Nie Ping trotted over wearing a uniform work uniform, and he warmly welcomed: "Here we come.

Do you want to go directly to treatment room No. [-] to see the sentinel, or watch the video of him coming out of the black abyss for half a month first? "

With disgust on his face, Bai Nian pointed at the exaggerated indoor fountain: "Jiang Xunzhou is too narcissistic.

Now all the guard towers have to set up his archway at the entrance of the treatment team? "

Nie Ping was puzzled: "Huh?"

Bai Nian sneered: "He made his spiritual body into a sculpture and put it around, wouldn't he tell you that it is a symbol of love and peace in the treatment group?"

Nie Ping's three views were subverted: "He really said that..."

Bai Nian let out a cold snort from his nasal cavity.

Nie Ping turned his head to look at the dolphin, which is said to symbolize the logo of their treatment group, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that the meaning was not quite right.

Bai Nian said: "Take me to see the video data of when he came out of Hei Abyss first."

The environment in the screening hall was very dark. Nie Ping swiped his work card to retrieve the archived materials, and ordered the staff to start the screening.

Bai Nian sat on the sofa with his back leaning against the back of the sofa, crossing his arms and looking at the screen playing on the screen.

All known black abysses are surrounded by sentry towers, and there is only one door for entry and exit. To open the door, you need to pass through layers of checkpoints. When opening the door, you even need the official seals of ministers with more than seven watchtowers to open the door smoothly.

Bai Nian squinted his eyes and looked at the peaceful night in the camera lens.

Nie Ping explained from the side: "The timing of his appearance is very strange. This month, the sentry of our No. 68 sentry tower who served in the Heiyuan will not enter until two days later.

And the last group that went in has successfully come out.

In the group that has come out, there are two mentally on the verge of collapse, and they have successfully received treatment in our group.

And it has almost returned to normal last week, leaving our tower. "

Bai Nian let out an "oh" very casually, and there were very weak fluctuations in the camera image, as if a layer of almost imperceptible ripples appeared in the pool water being wrinkled by the breeze.

"and many more."

Bai Nian said.

The video screen suddenly stopped.

Bai Nian reached out and pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and stared at the seemingly peaceful picture for a long time. He looked at the time on the lower right corner of the picture, which was 31:[-]:[-] in the evening.

He asked: "Around 31:[-]:[-] in the evening, did the observers on duty at the sentry tower notice any strange mental fluctuations?"

Nie Ping paused.

Bai Nian pointed at the screen with one finger: "You can see a layer of mental waves visible to the naked eye in the camera screen."

Bai Nian raised his single finger and pondered for a moment, "Among the people I know, there are no more than three who can create such fluctuations, and two of them are guides known for their powerful spirit."

Bai Nian frowned and thought about it, "The other one is a sentinel.

He is very dangerous, with outstanding fighting ability, and he has much better control over his mind than ordinary sentinels. "

Nie Ping stared at the camera screen very seriously for a long time, and saw pantothenic acid in his eyes without blinking, and he really didn't see the mental fluctuations visible to the naked eye mentioned by Bai Nian. He couldn't help complaining in his heart—except Who of you can see this "visible to the naked eye" mental fluctuations, don't be kidding.

Nie Ping whispered: "I know.

Those two guides are the few top spiritual awakeners in our country. "

He said, "But both of them are old, now..."

Before he finished speaking, Bai Nian sneered: "Being a shameful politician in the political arena."

Nie Ping choked when he heard the words. He didn't dare to say what the boss said, so he had to change the subject: "Then what about the powerful sentinel you mentioned? How is he doing now? Why haven't I heard of such a powerful sentinel?"

Bai Nian said concisely: "Dead."

Nie Ping was puzzled: "Huh?"

Bai Nian glanced at him: "He died 100 years ago."

He asked indifferently, "Why? Don't you read books?"

Nie Ping choked up when he was asked, and immediately understood the pain of working with Bai Nian, his immediate boss.

Bai Nian retracted his gaze and looked at the stopped screen: "Continue."

he said.

The screen started to move.

After about five or six seconds of silence, a man slowly appeared within the camera range.

His clothes were bad, and he looked like a homeless man who would be taken to a shelter at any time.

His head drooped slightly, and the camera could not clearly capture his facial features.

I saw him walking slowly to the center of the camera lens, and then slightly raised his head to look at the direction of the sky.

Bai Nian sat on the sofa with his arms folded, and raised his eyebrows with a little interest when he saw this.

After a few tens of seconds, dozens of staff members wearing the uniforms of the sentry tower yelled at the man who suddenly appeared.

The man turned his head to look at the dozens of people who suddenly appeared, and continued to walk forward without changing his steps.

His posture and pace did not look like a sentinel who had just come out of the black abyss and was exhausted, but rather like a lion who ignored others and was invading other people's territories.

A staff member of the sentry tower approached the man, and in the next second, almost invisible to the naked eye, the staff member flew back several meters away.

Although Nie Ping had watched this video file many times, he still couldn't hold back his breath. He explained to Bai Nian: "This is the first staff member who was injured by him."

Nie Ping's face became bitter, "And he's a sentinel."

Bai Nian ignored Nie Ping, his eyes silently focused behind the lens, and said coldly, "Slow down the picture just now."

It was because the picture was slowed down by a double speed, and Bai Nian said again: "Slow down a bit."

After slowing down many times in a row, the picture can be seen clearly. The man's body as fast as an afterimage rushed to the staff of the sentry tower, and with only one fist, he knocked the sentry several meters away.

Bai Nian clicked his tongue very slowly, and concluded: "It's quite dangerous."

Nie Ping was bald, and whispered, "I've always told you that he's dangerous..."

Bai Nian leaned back on the back of the sofa chair, with a stretched posture as if watching a movie in a cinema, he said: "Continue."

The screen returned to normal speed and moved again.

After the man in the picture showed aggression, the staff of the sentry tower entered a state of preparation.

Someone pressed the communication headset on the ear and spoke very quickly.

While he was speaking, the man quickly knocked down several people.

The man attacked several staff members, then looked up at the sky for a moment, and Bai Nian even felt that he saw what could be called a happy smile on the other party's face.

Bai Nian took out a pen with only the Aiwen School logo printed on it from his pocket, and took out a dark blue notebook with the same logo printed on it.

He unfolded the notebook with one hand, opened the cap of the pen, pondered for a moment, and began to write down the first message about the sentinel.

"Mad dog."

Bai Nian wrote so.

In the later stage of the video, someone used a tranquilizer gun to shoot at the man.

Nie Ping swallowed at the side: "In fact, some anesthetics are mixed with the psychotropic drugs."

Bai Nian laughed ironically from his nose.

After the man got the needle, he became more and more manic.

Bai Nian looked at the picture expressionlessly, and after the man fell down, he let out a laugh: "You used an anesthetic that can dazzle a large wild animal to deal with a sentry."

He added slowly, "An uncontrollable sentinel who just came out of the black abyss."

Nie Ping wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand, and carefully explained: "You can also see how dangerous this person is."

Bai Nian closed the notebook he was holding, and put the pen back into his pocket.

He stood up from the chair: "His combat power is so strong, even when faced with an almost lethal dose of anesthetic for an adult male, he didn't release his mental body.

Don't you think it's weird? " he asked without haste.

Nie Ping was slightly taken aback, and said in a little surprise: "That's right.

No one has ever seen his mental body, and he's been using his fists all the time. "

Bai Nian nodded and said, "Take me now to see this sentinel who is treated like a wild animal by your sentry tower."
