Chapter 31: The So-called Domain

……

Actually, if possible, Huaiyou didn't want to show it in front of them.

This would make him feel like he was being treated as a lab rat.

But given the current situation, he had to make such a decision to cooperate.

Because he was well aware of his current predicament.

If he didn't get what the other party wanted, he might really not be able to leave this place.

What's more, at least up to now, besides treating him, they had only asked a few questions and hadn't harmed him.

And as for the danger of the mask, Huaiyou was sure the other party knew something; if nothing else, it could be roughly seen from that recording.

The fact that the other party clearly knew about these things and still intended to test him in this way indicated one thing: they still wanted to know what this thing was used for.

Or for them, this might also be a test. After all, judging from the previous recording and what Zou Zhihua had said,

those who wore the mask, except for himself, had all become mentally unstable. They were extremely likely to be testing whether this thing had any influence on him.

So, thinking of this, after weighing the pros and cons,

Huaiyou quickly reached a tragic conclusion: he could only follow the other party's words.

And also...

If possible, he also wanted to know what this thing represented, and whether it had any special functions or application methods.

You know.

If it's used as a prop, it will definitely be useful later, since this so-called Horror Movie has definitely latched onto him.

Then there will definitely be more than just one or two Horror Movies later.

And each one has its own danger.

Only by having more understanding, or even more clarity,

can he increase his chances of survival.

You know, for the first Ju Yuan movie, if he hadn't risked his life, he would probably have been buried by now.

Of course, it couldn't be ruled out that it was luck, but in the end, most of the time, he had to rely on himself; there couldn't be that many coincidences.

Soon.

Huaiyou could only nod.

Luo Yi watched Huaiyou slowly take out the mask and said: "I believe you must have understood this thing, so our test starts right here."

Huaiyou asked curiously: "Then you don't need to make any preparations? What if there's any danger?"

"Rest assured, this thing of yours, or rather, you as you are now, shouldn't be able to kill me," Luo Yi answered with a smile.

"Alright, then I'll start right away."

Huaiyou thought for a moment. Although he didn't quite understand what the other party meant by "shouldn't be able to kill me," on second thought, people who could work here probably had some special means.

"I don't know what will happen when I put on this mask. Since you have already investigated many things, I will just say it directly: when I wore the mask before, there were other things around. This is the first time I'm doing it in front of a normal person like you, and I don't know if anything strange will happen."

Huaiyou said this while taking a few steps back, and slowly took the mask out of the plastic bag and put it on his face.

The next second, the mask headgear fit perfectly with his face.

With just a subtle movement of his hands behind his head, Huaiyou quickly tied the fixing straps together.

Everything happened very quickly. Since Luo Yi asked Huaiyou to do this, he did it quickly.

At the same time.

Luo Yi, who was face-to-face, did not show the slightest relaxed expression at this moment; the smile on his face had long since faded away.

He stepped back subconsciously.

But soon, Luo Yi discovered that he was being stared at fiercely by a gaze at this moment.

He looked up slightly and clearly saw Huaiyou's eyes, revealed through the mask, turning slightly, looking at him with an eerie gaze.

This was an emotionless, cold gaze, completely unlike the normal Huaiyou from before.

Dangerous. The person in front of him had become very dangerous at this moment.

This was Luo Yi's first thought.

But soon, he didn't seem to fear this change; instead, he tilted his head slightly and said something to a black object on his shoulder.

And if other people, or people from this Judgment Bureau organization, were to observe it, they would easily recognize that this was actually a miniature camera.

Clearly, Luo Yi was constantly reporting the situation while conducting the experiment.

However, at this moment,

everything around them suddenly became unusually quiet.

The walls, the ceiling, the decorative paintings around, and even the ground not far away—everything seemed to be shrouded in an absolute "calm" at this moment.

Because to Luo Yi, the surrounding environment had become slightly distorted.

Huaiyou walked over slowly, his footsteps landing one after another.

Each step felt like it was landing in Luo Yi's heart.

Luo Yi's eyes widened suddenly.

Because at this moment, he clearly felt that the entire surrounding space seemed to have become empty.

He could subconsciously feel the movement of his own blood and heartbeat.

"This is... a Domain? It's just that this level seems incomplete and is still in a relatively weak trend."

Luo Yi looked at the back of his hand at this moment; a layer of goosebumps had risen.

This was the corresponding reaction caused by his innate premonition of danger.

Luo Yi looked at Huaiyou; the other party was very dull at this moment.

He didn't say a word, but instead gradually approached Luo Yi.

Fortunately, he stopped when he was only half a meter away from Luo Yi.

He just looked at Luo Yi quietly like that.

Luo Yi clearly felt the other party's creepy gaze.

"Reporting the situation now: test subject Huaiyou, after putting on the mask, shows no obvious signs of attack. Currently in an independent state. Suspected Domain leakage. Preliminary judgment: Domain concentration is very small. Surrounding space is affected to a certain extent and has been distorted. No danger."

"My current physique is tentatively set at the first stage of a normal human state. Requesting instructions: is it necessary to upgrade to the second layer?"

Luo Yi's lips moved slightly, giving such a report.

At the same time, only two seconds passed today.

A piece of information was transmitted into Luo Yi's mind.

He shifted his gaze from the beginning back to Luo Yi at this moment, and at this very instant, everything around them suddenly became clear again.

The pressure he had felt to a certain extent just now had actually weakened completely.

"Conducting experiment report again: switched to second-state physique. Although there is still a certain degree of pressure, it is not that obvious." Luo Yi's eyes moved slightly, having roughly figured out the feeling of the current state.

Although this time it was successfully resisted, there was still considerable pressure.

But at the same time, he also thought in his heart at this moment.

"It doesn't look like an offensive Domain within the range. If it were really that kind of offensive one, I wouldn't be feeling like this right now. Is there some special situation that can't be developed now? Or is it actually hidden in a deeper position?"

Luo Yi just looked at Huaiyou in front of him. The current test was the best it could be.

He should be able to get the conclusion he wanted, and the one above wanted to see, very soon...

So, suddenly, Luo Yi did not step back at this moment.

Instead, he took a step forward.

"Huaiyou, can you hear me? How do you feel now?"

All of this happened in a very short time.

Just like that, Luo Yi stood quietly in place, waiting for Huaiyou's answer.

But after a long while, he found that the other party didn't seem to have any intention of speaking or responding.

And just as Luo Yi wanted to try another method, he heard Huaiyou's voice drift over.

"I can hear you, but it feels a bit strange. This seems different from any other time I've worn the mask."

"How is it different?" Luo Yi asked.

"I just feel my brain is clearer than ever before, and I seem to have endless energy all over my body. I seem to be able to see some angles and distances that I couldn't see in my previous line of sight..."

However, just at this moment, Huaiyou only said half of what he wanted to say and pointed to the front: "For example, I can see a bug behind you. The bug is very big, crawling on your back. It looks like your pet? It looks quite scary."

When Luo Yi heard this, his expression changed clearly.

Then he said with a bit of surprise: "How can you see this thing on me?"

Huaiyou replied: "I don't know. I discovered I could see it, so naturally, I saw it. I don't know what's going on either, which is why I said it's a bit strange."

Luo Yi's expression changed uncertainly.

That bug Huaiyou mentioned...

Normal people couldn't possibly see it at all; only people like them could see it clearly, and some even needed to take off their clothes to see it clearly.

And Huaiyou?

He could actually see it clearly just like that?

"Okay, besides that, are there any other strange feelings?"

Huaiyou seemed to be thinking, "Shouldn't be any more, that's all for now."

"Is that so?"

Luo Yi nodded and wanted to prepare for the next step at this moment, but suddenly.

Luo Yi's eyes jumped.

He spoke softly and inexplicably: "Okay, understood."

The next moment, Luo Yi's gaze moved slightly, and he said: "Follow me. Keep wearing this thing, and tell me immediately if you feel anything wrong."

Finally, Luo Yi said to Huaiyou: "Very interesting. You are about to come into contact with a strange thing we just discovered."
