Chapter 83 Light and Shadow
Li Qingzhou stopped at the door of the room, with his hand on the light switch.
"Snap"
The light switch was pressed, and the light in the room disappeared in an instant, and darkness filled the entire room again.
Almost at the moment when the darkness emerged, the strange sound suddenly rang in the room.
The sound was sad and mournful, as if it was the cry of a woman who had experienced a disaster.
Hongling shuddered with fear. The disappearance and appearance of the sound were too sudden, and it did not give people any psychological defense at all.
The sound filled the entire room, making people feel cold in their hearts.
"Snap"
Another crisp sound, the light switch in the room was turned on, and the dim light reappeared, driving away the darkness and reoccupying the entire room.
And the sad and mournful sound also disappeared without a trace when the light was cast.
Li Qingzhou tried several more times, and the situation was the same.
The sound in the room seemed to be emitted by the powered speakers, and the light switch in Li Qingzhou's hand was the power supply of the speakers. The sound turned on and off with the power turned on, and turned off and off.
But Li Qingzhou understood that this was not a sound, but something that seemed to be afraid of light.
It only moves in the dark, and once there is light, it will stop all activities.
Li Qingzhou and Hongling looked at each other, and both understood the secret.
No wonder the sound only appeared in the dead of night, and it would only come out and move in complete darkness.
Dim lights, quiet room.
Nothing can be heard except the breathing of the two.
"I remembered something." Hongling said thoughtfully, "When I was in college, I heard my tutor talk about a monster in the abyss. They only appear in the dark. Once they touch the light, they will fall into a hidden state and remain motionless. So they only live in the abyss, and they can only survive in the absolute darkness of the abyss."
"The things in this room are very similar to the monsters you mentioned." Li Qingzhou's eyes swept the room again, but still found nothing.
His innate insight could not see what was in the room.
This hidden state should not be a simple disguise or invisibility, but a state of truly blending into the air, blending into the environment, and eliminating oneself.
The monsters in the abyss also have strange and bizarre abilities.
"It will be completely hidden in a light environment and cannot be seen; in the dark, it will appear, but our eyes need light to see things, and in the dark, our eyes cannot see."
Li Qingzhou whispered to himself, this is a paradox, both need light and cannot have light.
"Just let it think it is in the dark. We are in a light environment, and it is in the dark!" Hong Ling's mouth drew a smile.
"Can this be done?" Li Qingzhou asked doubtfully.
"Cheat the monster's senses and let it think it has been in the dark, but in fact, we have turned on the lights in the room, so that we can see the monster, right?" Hong Ling said.
"Deceiving the senses, hypnosis or illusion?" Li Qingzhou thought. Ping An could hypnotize, but the object of hypnosis must see its eyes. Now he didn't know where the monster was, so Ping An couldn't use his skills.
The Phantom Wing Butterfly flapped its wings gently and flew in front of Hong Ling. A faint green light flowed on its body.
The Phantom Wing Butterfly's skill, virtual reality illusion, can create an illusion that seems real. Creatures in the virtual reality illusion cannot distinguish between reality and illusion.
"Let's go out and turn off the lights." Hong Ling ordered.
Li Qingzhou nodded, pressed the light switch, then walked into the corridor and looked into the room.
The dim light disappeared immediately, and darkness fell into the room again.
The sad and mournful voice sounded abruptly again, echoing in the room.
In the darkness, the Phantom Wing Butterfly flapped its wings gently, and a weak wind blew past, seeming to bring something, but also seeming to bring nothing.
Hong Ling smiled slightly, she knew that the virtual reality illusion was effective.
At this moment, all the living creatures in the room were in the dark illusion created by the phantom butterfly.
Hong Ling turned on the light switch on the wall, and a dim light slanted down, illuminating the entire room.
In the room, a strange creature was floating.
Its body shape was like a transparent umbrella, and there were some whisker-like tentacles on the edge of the umbrella-shaped body. The tentacles were like hanging ribbons, swinging in the air.
Li Qingzhou saw the strange creature, his mind fluctuated, and then he saw lines of text.
[Name: Light-avoiding Beast]
[Attribute: Dark]
[Level: Silver Level 1]
[Qualification: Gold]
[Skills: Dream Talk, Hide, Float]
[Weakness: Light]
[Evolutionary Route: 1]
[Introduction: An extraordinary creature that lives in groups, looks like a transparent umbrella, and there are some whisker-like tentacles on the edge of the umbrella-shaped body; it lives in the dark, and if it leaves the tribe, it will use the dream talk skill to call, and after the tribe responds, it will move in the direction of the tribe gathering. 】
The sad and mournful voice in the room continued, like crying and complaining.
"It seems that it is the source of the strange sound." Li Qingzhou looked at the creature floating in the air and said.
"It seems that this is the monster that the mentor said appeared in the abyss, but how did it appear here? There is no breath of the abyss nearby." Hongling asked in confusion.
"Can the creatures in the abyss only come in through the gaps in the abyss?" Li Qingzhou asked.
"Yes, Linyuan City has been protected by many powerful beast masters. It is impossible for creatures in the abyss to pass through the barrier and enter." Hongling replied.
"That's strange!" Li Qingzhou lowered his head and thought.
"Don't worry about it for now, take it back first." Hongling said as she put on a pair of gloves, then took out a handbag and opened the bag.
The phantom butterfly flapped its wings again and activated its telekinetic skill.
Telekinesis can use thoughts to control the opponent to a certain extent.
In the virtual and real illusion, the power of telekinesis skills will be significantly improved.
The light-avoiding beast that appeared in the air slowly flew towards Hongling, and then got into the open handbag.
Hongling carefully closed the bag, then clapped her hands and said, "It's done."
The phantom butterfly fluttered gently and landed on Hongling's shoulder. Something seemed to break in the air. It was the sound of the virtual and real illusion collapsing.
Li Qingzhou pressed the light switch in the room again, the tungsten filament bulb went out, and the room became dark again.
But the sad and mournful voice had disappeared, and there was silence all around.
"The monsters in the abyss carry the breath of the abyss, which will corrode the human body, so when you come into contact with such extraordinary creatures, you must take good protection." Hongling put away her gloves and said to Li Qingzhou.
The two walked downstairs at a relaxed pace, and Ping An lay on Li Qingzhou's shoulder, yawning repeatedly.
