Alien Relic Hunter

Chapter 241 Crazy Relic Hunter

"Safe? If it is so safe, why is it rated as an S-level relic?" Ke Lan asked.

If it is only because of the high yield, then this bottomless sinkhole will definitely not be rated as S-level, just like Leviathan before he woke up-although the total value of the huge energy crystal reserves in Leviathan's body is terrifying , but because there were basically no threats found in the Leviathan area at that time, when this "remains of the wild beast" was first rated as a relic, those experts never considered the S-level rating at all.

"Ha... I was just joking. In fact, the word safety should be put in double quotation marks." ACMS_0420 replied.

"I knew it wasn't that simple."

"Indeed, although only two people died, more than half of the hunters who came back from the Tiankeng were crazy."

"Crazy? Did you see something weird... or did you suffer some kind of mental attack?" Ke Lan asked immediately.

"I don't know... because they didn't go crazy immediately, but after leaving the Tiankeng for a few days, some people even returned to the ark and began to take vacations, and suddenly they had an attack. The most serious one was a 32-year-old A female relic hunter, when she was shopping with her boyfriend who was also a hunter, she suddenly pulled out the pistol at her waist, first shot and killed the unsuspecting boyfriend, and then started shooting randomly at the passers-by around, causing a total of 4 dead and 6 injured. When the guards rushed over, she left the last bullet in the pistol for herself... You should still be able to find this news."

"Is there an autopsy report for this huntress?"

"That's something most people can't get."

"I know you are not ordinary."

"Hey...for the sake of what you said, this information is free: I read the autopsy report, and the forensic doctor concluded that there was no abnormality found."

"Nothing unusual?"

"Except for the brain—because she committed suicide by drinking a bullet, the bullet penetrated directly into the cranial cavity from the upper jaw, and the whole brain became a paste. With the current level of technology, it is difficult to restore it, let alone Not to mention tracing the brain wave changes of the deceased during his lifetime."

"What about the others? What about the other crazy hunters? Ark should have checked them all, right?"

"Yes, everyone's situation is different, but there is one thing in common - after these people went crazy, they all expressed to their friends more or less that they have been having nightmares recently , and because of the torment of nightmares, the mental state of these people is already very bad when they are completely insane."

"... Then why do you say that the average casualty rate is less than 1%? Don't these crazy people count as casualties?"

"Because there is no definite evidence, it will not be included in the casualty rate statistics for the time being... However, under the strong request of the rating meeting and the hunting group participating in these three exploration missions, the S-018 relic 'Bottomless Sinkhole' is still designated as S-class ruins."

"How could there be no evidence? Anyone with a discerning eye would know that these crazy people have an inevitable connection with this ruin!" Ke Lan was puzzled.

"First of all, not all the people who went down the tiankeng were crazy; secondly, everyone who came out of the tiankeng said that they didn't feel any physical or mental discomfort during the operation, and didn't see anything. Anything like an illusion... They all wear vital signs monitoring equipment. Even if what they say may not be true, it is impossible for their heart rate and blood pressure to lie, unless each of these hundreds of hunters With the psychological quality of "Taishan collapses before the color does not change", but how can people with this psychological quality easily go crazy? Third, everyone who returns to the ark has undergone strict inspections. From body to mind... You are more familiar with this process than I am, so I won't say more, in short, apart from the 'nightmare', no one has abnormalities."

"As for nightmares, normal doctors will think that it is caused by their own factors such as excessive stress and anxiety. The treatment plan given by the doctors in charge of the physical examination of the hunters is also normal: a small amount of sedative drugs that can improve sleep. Plus a period of vacation..." ACMS_0420 continued, "At that time, no doctor would think that the hunters' nightmares would be related to the bottomless sinkhole, because there is no observable stimulus in that place... And the monitoring equipment worn by the hunters also proves that they have not suffered mental attacks at all in the sinkhole. To be honest, I feel like they are cursed."

"Those who are not crazy..."

"Everything is normal. For them, going to the bottomless sinkhole is like walking around the commercial street." ACMS_0420 said.

"Do you have the personal reports of these hunters after completing their missions? The content of the official reports is too scarce, and many important information have been deleted."

"I have collected a total of 57 personal reports, of which the authors of 29 reports have gone crazy, while the other 28 are normal. I have carefully studied each of them, and there is no abnormality...or, in other words, each All are unusual."

"Are they all abnormal?"

"No abnormality is the biggest abnormality... Even the workers who dig in Leviathan's body will always encounter some things like rats and insects, right? But these hunters who enter the sinkhole, except for those sealed Except for the things in the ice layer, I have encountered nothing... Even the native creatures that should have appeared in the glacier area seem to have completely disappeared."

"...Is there any more information besides these?"

"No, the progress of the exploration of the bottomless sinkhole is very slow now. No one has been to the place below 500 meters, and above 500 meters, there are only those things you see in the photos... and the nearly 0420 people who were killed A mad hunter sent to a special hospital." At the end of this passage, ACMS_[-] also added a helpless expression with hands and shoulders shrugging.

"By the way, those crazy hunters... from their actions and words, are there any clues worth paying attention to?" Ke Lan asked, if they can find out the reason why these hunters went crazy, maybe they can find a way This "curse" can be prevented.

"Some patients became very aggressive, others were very apathetic, others had both obsessive-compulsive and manic symptoms...everyone was different and not representative at all. As for speech...they don't speak much when they're crazy, they basically just whisper meaninglessly or howl like crazy, and they can't analyze any valuable information from it."
