Chapter 437: Doesn't Your Conscience Hurt? (Part 2)
"By the way, arrange someone for me, I want to focus on visiting the deceptions of Section 750."
Just then, the door of the room suddenly knocked.
A young girl wearing a JK uniform appeared in front of Ye Bai, holding a stack of documents.
"Sir, these are the documents awaiting signature for Section 750."
Ye Bai casually took them, glanced through, and handed the documents to Bai Ming.
"These documents, they're giving me a headache."
"You'll handle them."
"By the way, are there any deceptions still not contained?"
"Take me to see them?"
Ye Bai stretched a bit.
He planned to start working.
"Deceptions?"
The girl asked curiously.
"They're unspeakable entities."
"Just now the sir called them 'deceptions'. Little Blue, immediately send an email to everyone, formally renaming unspeakable entities as 'deceptions'!"
Bai Ming said solemnly.
Section 750 containment area.
This is a place specially designed for containing deceptions.
Ye Bai gazed through the immensely bright window, seeing a shadow creature suppressed inside.
The notice board outside the window detailed the name and abilities of the deception.
[Name: Shadow (Unspeakable Entity ×) Deception]
A large × was drawn over 'Unspeakable Entity' on the notice board, replaced by the word 'Deception'.
It seems there wasn't time to replace the signage, it could only be written like this for now.
[Discovery Location: Zhuang Zhou High School.]
[Ability: Transforms into a phantom, merges into the shadows of humans or exotic beasts. Once merged, it begins parasitism, gradually replaces the human or beast, trapping their soul in the shadow.]
[Weakness: Afraid of light, once caught by intense light, it instantly curls up into a ball.]
Ye Bai also saw a row of incandescent lights inside the window, emitting dazzlingly strong light.
"We do layered installations in every containment room."
"Just like this shadow unspeakable, cough, deception, if the room loses light, they will immediately merge into the shadows and vanish."
"Therefore, there's usually a backup power supply in the room. If the central control system loses power, the incandescent lamps will still stay bright for a while before dimming."
"At this point, the backup generator will activate."
"If all else fails, we have planted Sunflower Emperors at six locations in the room: northeast, southwest, up and down."
"Once the backup generator fails, sensing the room's diminishing brightness, the Sunflower Emperor will revive, emitting dazzlingly intense light."
"Shadow deception seems to have other abilities, unfortunately, the director won't allow us to research."
Little Blue playfully stuck out her tongue.
"Never mind, wait till the spiritual threshold device is developed, then you can thoroughly research deceptions."
"You said the shadow deception seems to have other abilities, how did you deduce that?"
Zhang Lingxue asked curiously, her talent in research was on par with Ye Bai, also fond of meticulous researchers.
"Actually, this is a chance discovery of mine."
"Once, the backup generator failed to start, I saw the shadow deception pulling out a white skull from the shadow."
"And a long scythe, with ghost fire flickering on the skull."
"Just when the shadow deception wanted to shuttle through shadows to escape, the power suddenly came back."
"The dazzlingly intense light once again enveloped the shadow deception, to my surprise, the skull and scythe in its hand disappeared."
"Hence, I speculate that the shadow deception should have a shadow space, unfortunately, I want to experiment but haven't found an opportunity."
"Section 750 does not permit contracting deceptions, I heard that someone secretly contracted a deception before, leading one by one to be influenced by deceptions, driving them crazy, eventually being transformed into deceptions themselves."
"This stopped everyone from wanting to contract deceptions."
Thinking of this, Little Blue felt a shiver of fear, she almost wanted to contract a deception like the Red Umbrella.
At this moment, Ye Bai suddenly saw someone wearing red rain boots and holding a red umbrella ahead.
"Little Blue, what's so strange here, why is someone holding a red umbrella?"
As soon as he said this, Little Blue instantly showed an extremely frightened expression.
She began to look in the direction Ye Bai pointed.
There was nothing ahead.
"May I ask if the other two adults can see her?"
Little Blue asked slightly stutteringly!
"No, there's no one ahead."
Zhang Lingxue and Blue Phoenix shook their heads.
"It seems the Red Umbrella deception has its eye on you."
"Only someone eyed by it can see the Red Umbrella."
"I was once entangled by the Red Umbrella, originally intended to contract with her, but the Red Umbrella got scared away by the relic on my neck."
"We've explored for so long, discovered a trait of deceptions, which is to agree to their request."
"As long as one can fulfill a wish for the deception, it will disperse on its own and look for someone else."
"Otherwise, you find the weakness of the deception and forcefully defeat it."
"Usually, there are only these two options."
Little Blue said earnestly.
"I remember the Red Umbrella's wish was to contract with me."
"Unfortunately, the relic I wore, after scaring away the Red Umbrella, soon disintegrated, like protecting me from disaster."
Ye Bai saw the Red Umbrella not far from him suddenly stop.
She seemed to have sensed something, quickly turned into a cloud of red mist and disappeared.
This puzzled Ye Bai greatly, wondering what the Red Umbrella had encountered that made it flee.
"I noticed the Red Umbrella suddenly ran away."
Ye Bai said puzzledly.
"There must be something on you that scared away the Red Umbrella, otherwise, it wouldn't have fled."
"You can test it out with the shadow deception over there."
Shadow deception!!!! Great sister, are you crazy! I'm like this, and you still use me for testing.
Doesn't your conscience hurt?
Little Blue looked up and saw the shadow deception curled up, gazing at her with an incredibly resentful look.
The feeling was akin to looking at a heartbreaker.
She awkwardly wiped her nose.
Ye Bai thought for a moment, suddenly had an idea, he summoned the ancient bronze sword from the Pet Beast Space.
The moment the ancient bronze sword appeared, the shadow deception let out an ear-piercing scream, it transformed with a bang into scattered black fog, about to disperse into the air.
Ye Bai quickly retracted the ancient bronze sword, only then did the nearly dispersed black fog regroup, forming the image of the shadow deception.
However, compared to just now, the shadow deception's form shrank to just over a quarter of its original size.
"It seems this ancient bronze sword has a strong deterrent against deceptions."
"Perhaps the Red Umbrella sensed the aura on you, which is why it fled in panic."
"While the shadow deception, having nowhere to escape, could only be wounded by the aura of the ancient bronze sword."
Little Blue immediately concluded.
"So, this sword has a restraining effect on deceptions."
Ye Bai mused, he saw through the Eye of Truth that the Sword Spirit of the Tai Chi Yin Yang Sword was merging with the Dustless Sword, indicating the Celestial Master had infused spiritual power into the Dustless Sword.
The Celestial Master inherently restrained deceptions, and with the fusion of sixty-four Myriad Dragon Slashes, even more so.
So naturally, the ancient bronze sword became a nemesis of deceitful beasts.
I equate to carrying a weapon that repels a hundred ghosts.
"By the way, Little Blue, do you have any extremely vicious deceptions here?"
"I'd like to test this ancient bronze sword's restraining strength against deceitful beasts."
Little Blue poked her chin with her finger, her eyes rotated.
"Well, actually, there is."
"But this guy is a bit tricky, at the very bottom of the containment area, he's very tricky and excels at controlling water flow."
"We spent several tier seven pet beast masters to contain this deception."
