Chapter 34: Phantom Rat, Heart Purification Mantra, On-site Teaching!
Illusionary monsters are definitely the nightmare of all ordinary residents and low-level warriors under the jurisdiction of the Human Federation!
They are agile and good at hiding. They like to hide in the dark to cast illusions and deceive people.
In his previous life, Liu Zimo had seen too many tragedies like Xiao Wang's guards, who accidentally injured or even killed their own people because of illusions.
Even he himself had been tricked by the illusionary monster more than once and did many things that made him regret it!
This is also the fundamental reason why in the future, the federal government will specially launch [Spiritual Yuan Jue], [Purifying Heart Mantra] and the higher-level [Awakening God Jue] for all human warriors to practice for free.
Facing this special monster that directly attacks at the soul level, ordinary people or even warriors who have not received special training can easily be tricked and directly or indirectly become killing tools controlled by the illusionary monster!
"Squeak~!"
Liu Zimo just looked out the window and stared at the black shadow that hid himself on the eaves of the window.
The shadow immediately noticed it, and suddenly dodged and retreated, while bursting out a sharp scream like a bamboo rat.
Buzz~!
Sound waves rose and shook in all directions.
Liu Zimo, who was the first to bear the brunt, only felt his soul shake slightly, and then he woke up instantly, without being affected at all.
Wu Songyang, who was standing next to him, had blurred eyes and a look of struggle on his face. Then he raised the pistol in his hand and pointed it directly at Liu Zimo, and pulled the trigger without hesitation.
"It turned out to be a phantom demon rat!"
Liu Zimo calmly dodged the attack of the bullet, and knocked Wu Songyang, who was already controlled by the phantom demon, to the ground.
Judging from the sound alone, he had already recognized the identity of the phantom demon in front of him.
Phantom demon rat!
A low-level demon beast that is good at using sound waves to create illusions. It is also the most phantom demon race that descended on the earth at the beginning of the end of the world.
They are small and agile. Because they look like a large field mouse, the human race in the end times named them "illusion demon rats".
The attack power of the illusion demon rat itself is not high, and a full-strength attack is only slightly stronger than that of ordinary people.
Therefore, they rarely go down to fight in close combat, but use their illusion talent to hypnotize and charm humans or other monsters to fight for them.
In the previous life, before he officially became a warrior, Liu Zimo had suffered losses from this kind of illusion demon rat more than once, and he hated these little demons hiding in the dark.
However, these are not the most important things. The most important thing is that this kind of illusion demon rat is a social animal. They prefer to come out in groups to capture prey.
Now that a illusion demon rat has appeared, it means that there must be more illusion demon rats hiding in the dark near the camp.
Maybe at this moment, many soldiers in the camp have become puppets and killers under their control, just like Xiao Wang and Wu, the staff officer just now.
"Still want to escape?!"
"Come and die!"
Seeing the phantom rat retreating quickly, it had already run a hundred meters away in a moment. Liu Zimo's eyes were slightly cold, and he raised his right hand slightly, and shot a Xuanyin finger through the air.
Squeak~!
After a scream, the running phantom demon was completely revealed, and it fell to the ground as a yellow rat more than one meter long.
On the huge rat head, the skull was broken and the brain burst, and it was completely dead.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Chen Sanjin, what the hell are you doing?! Why are you shooting at me?!"
"Zhu Weimin! You... why are you..."
"Everyone be careful of your comrades around you, there are traitors!!"
"..."
The gunshots in the camp that had just been silent for a while rang again, and there were many soldiers' angry exclamations and screams not far away.
The expression on Liu Zimo's face changed slightly.
Sure enough, there were more than one phantom rat that sneaked into the camp, and they had already started to attack the soldiers in the camp!
Liu Zimo glanced at Wu Songyang, who was still unconscious, and the guard Xiao Wang, who was also knocked unconscious by him.
Without thinking too much, he skillfully bent over and reached out to pick up the two of them, and stuffed them directly into the relatively closed and narrow bathroom inside.
This is the common self-rescue method he mentioned in the self-rescue strategy.
When the demon disaster comes, ordinary people want to survive, either stay in high-rise buildings and stay indoors, or lock themselves in a small and closed place and stay still.
Because the demon beasts that first came to the earth are generally low-level demon beasts with huge bodies and low IQs.
They can't climb stairs easily, let alone get into rooms or storage rooms that are smaller than their bodies.
Moreover, compared to closed buildings poured with cement and steel bars, most of those demon beasts prefer the outdoors where they can directly see the sky.
Therefore, at the beginning of the demon disaster, the safety factor of ordinary people staying in their own homes is much higher than running around outside.
Of course, the premise is that there are no pets at home, otherwise the native animals that are stimulated by spiritual energy and transformed into demons are not something that ordinary people can deal with.
Bang!
After closing the bathroom door, Liu Zimo did not delay any longer, releasing his newly realized martial arts realm and flew up directly!
In the camp, the fire was bright and chaotic.
In each camp and class, it seemed that someone was hypnotized and pointed the gun at the comrades around them.
Now, everyone was panicked, fighting on their own, and dared not easily trust the people around them.
Liu Zimo looked down from a high place, and instantly took in the entire camp.
"One, two, three, ten... sixteen!"
Because he was very familiar with the breath and behavior habits of the phantom demon rats, and Liu Zimo was now a spiritual realm cultivator who had opened up the sea of consciousness, his spiritual perception became more acute.
With just a light sweep in the air, he locked the locations of the sixteen phantom demon rats hiding in the dark.
However, he did not attack these phantom demon rats directly, but swept his eyes to the soldiers in the camp who were still panicking and did not know how to deal with the current situation.
"Wake up!"
In the air, the golden light on Liu Zimo's body suddenly rose, shining in all directions, attracting the attention of all the soldiers in the entire camp to himself.
At the same time, the internal breath surged, based on the "clear" character formula in the [clear heart spell], the voice contained spiritual power, and shouted loudly.
Buzz~!
The sound was like thunder, resounding throughout the camp, instantly awakening all the soldiers trapped in the illusion.
"I am Liu Zimo, the specially appointed martial arts consultant of the Military Affairs Department!"
"Just now, some soldiers were attacked by the illusion of the illusion monster, so their wills were confused and they attacked their comrades around them as monsters!"
"Now, everyone listen to my command, silently recite the [Pure Heart Mantra] and stick to your heart, which is enough to resist this level of illusion attack!"
As he said, Liu Zimo chanted the mantra of the [Pure Heart Mantra] in public and guided the teaching on the spot.
Just as Wu Songyang said before.
The soldiers in the camp are not flowers in a greenhouse. They need to face and adapt to the current new combat environment by themselves.
This time, Liu Zimo can certainly use his powerful force to quickly pull out and kill the sixteen illusion rats lurking in the camp, saving all the soldiers in the camp from the water and fire.
However, if these soldiers encounter the same situation again next time, what should they do?
Do they still expect another savior to appear in time to save them?
No way!
They can't be so lucky every time!
If they want to survive in the future apocalyptic battlefield, they must learn to face these phantom monsters by themselves, learn how to stay awake in the phantom monsters' illusionary attacks, and even take the opportunity to kill the phantom monsters!
And these sixteen phantom monster rats are the first practical lessons that Liu Zimo, as the martial arts consultant of the Wushang Department, has given to these warriors!
