Deep in the Living

Chapter 222 Pituitary Space
[The video has been uploaded. Please wait for the background review. Upload time: 05:11. The estimated review time is minutes. Once verified, the corresponding fear beans will be issued to your account. ]

Rody has returned to his house.

The clothes that were stained with lake water and had water plants and hair hanging on them have been thrown into the washing machine.

It is autumn now and the room temperature is 13℃.

Wearing only a pair of shorts, Roddy sat in front of his laptop and started operating it, uploading all the videos he had shot.

Of course, the video did not record the final hunt. It just stopped abruptly after Rody fell into the water and saw the woman in the lake. It is not known whether the video can be passed.

Roddy was bored so he started doing one-finger push-ups.

Just when I was getting into the mood, a prompt came from the computer.

A large dialog box pops up.

"The review has passed and the reward has been received! Thank you for your cooperation."

"Hmm? That's really possible... I guess I have to go find out a little bit about the Moon City and this website tomorrow. The website can actually arrange a pseudo-human encounter directly in the Moon City, and it's a pseudo-human that can fully express concrete things."

Several memory scenes flashed through my mind, recalling my experiences tonight.

Young bodies were tied to the bottom of the lake by seaweed.
The long-haired woman who ran away in the water in panic,
Being caught up,
The face is pinched by five fingers,
Tentacles inserted into the brain,
The fear attack on the fake person directly caused the pituitary gland in the other party's brain to dissolve, as if it was caused by excessive fear. Moreover, these dissolved pituitary glands could actually be absorbed and swallowed by the tentacles.

This kind of satisfaction is far better than the previous release of fear against humans. It turns out that fake people are the best nourishment.

There was no strong feeling of hunger afterwards.

……

After completing the offline activities, Luo Di returned to the homepage of 4hs. The [Moon Zone] turned gray, and when he moved the mouse over it, he was prompted that "It will be open to you again tomorrow."

"It seems that I can only reply to a post in the special section once a day, which is not bad. I still have some time, so I will browse the website mall before going to bed."

The mall is also divided into six sections according to different types of horror culture.

Luo Di decisively selected the killer area.

Subcategories include "figures and statues", "clothing accessories", "simulation props", "books and stationery", and "daily peripherals", all of which are products related to the killer theme.

When Luo Di was a high school student, due to financial problems, he could only buy some CDs at most, and occasionally he would get a poster from his boss.

What is displayed before our eyes today are all things that were once difficult to buy or even out of print.

Scrolling the mouse on the mall page, I was dazzled by the variety of items.

The time spent shopping in the mall here is even longer than that spent in the park.

100颗恐怖豆看似很多，实际没买多少东西就直接没了。尤其是一款全球限量100个的水晶湖杰森1：6雕塑就要花费50恐怖豆。

Roddy also bought a murderer-themed mug, the handle of which was made into an axe handle.

As well as a set of themed hooded sweatshirts and a specially made rainy night killer raincoat.

When Luo Di clicked to place the order, he felt tired instantly. He turned his head to look at the time in the lower right corner of the desktop and found that it was already [08:13]. He didn't feel how much time had passed, but he had been browsing for more than three hours.

He fell asleep.

The moment your eyelids close, your brain goes into sleep.

He thought he would sleep as soon as his eyes closed and opened, but Rody's consciousness fell into a strange dream, or went to a place formed by the corner of the pituitary gland.
"Transit Space"

hum!
In the blink of an eye.

Rody's consciousness had already landed in a circular and open hall.

Nerves as thick as arms hang down from the open arched ceiling.

A huge, shriveled pituitary gland with a gray luster was hung in the air, just one meter above the ground.

"Hmm... Is this my pituitary gland? This is more intuitive than the growth of the Hell Spine. Is this the benefit of the Earth's native system?"

Rody took the initiative to step forward and touched the surface of the pituitary gland.

The palm of your hand can clearly feel the subtle pulsation, like a heart.

As soon as the hand reached out to touch it, the pituitary gland sensed the owner's touch and immediately grew tiny tentacles from its surface that wrapped around the entire arm.

An intuitive pituitary status panel appears in Roddy's consciousness. Stage: Seed

Category: Cthulhu Mythos "Color of Stars (Personal Color)"

Fear Connection: Killer (Black Gate)

Quality: Mythical

Saturation: 4%
Basic Effect: Tentacle Control (Low Level)

*Mythical pituitaries require more and higher-level fear nutrition to be supplemented, and are as closely associated with killer fear as possible.

*When the saturation reaches half, the individual will be given the [Characteristic Ability] of the seed stage. This ability is related to the way you supplement pituitary nutrition, fear association and pituitary type.

By then, the pituitary gland's demand for nutrition may increase, or special conditions and requirements may exist.

……

“So detailed… This really gives me a more intuitive understanding of the corner system I have, much better than a hellish thing like the spine that I need to explore on my own.

Moreover, can you get real characteristics by feeding half of it? Like opening the spine?
Can it make me more like a real killer?"

Rody withdrew his hand, and the tentacles growing on the surface of the pituitary gland were also retracted simultaneously.

Looking at this huge pituitary gland existing in the space of consciousness, one can vaguely see some of its internal structures.

It can be simply divided into the "anterior lobe (the area where hormone cells are located)", the "posterior lobe (nutrient absorption area)" and the "outer membrane".

The front lobe is the source of ability and is responsible for the release of related abilities and the regulation of hormones.

Although the pituitary gland has just been formed, careful observation will reveal the corner structures in the anterior lobe region (similar to a three-dimensional symmetrical coordinate system).

“Whether it’s a normal human being who acquires the system by ingesting the pituitary gland, or a pseudo-human who creates a psychological corner, [the system] revolves around fear.

The difference is,

Humans are not affected by whispers in the corner, can maintain their own identity to a greater extent, and can freely choose the direction of the development of fear.

Pseudo-humans are often greatly affected and grow up around the things they fear the most. The entire growth process will be guided by the corner, and after the pituitary matures, they will have the opportunity to participate in the gap, or even execute the more difficult "Corner Wanted Order" to obtain the identity of the corner.

The ultimate goal of both should be the same, which is to go deep into the corner and touch something... I can only know what to do specifically when I go to the corner myself.

Don't think too much about it for now, just deal with the current issues first.

When the saturation reaches half and the special ability is obtained, I will consider the combination and interaction between the pituitary gland and the spine. "

As Luo Di's subjective consciousness wanted to exit, this area of ​​consciousness was immediately closed... Buzz! He opened his eyes and woke up.

It was already dusk of the next day.

The tiredness in my brain has been completely cleared, replaced by a strong feeling of hunger.

In the past, Rody would have gone downstairs to find food as soon as possible. He would probably order several servings of roasted brain or a whole-brain hotpot or something like that.

But there was another thing at the moment. His strong interest overwhelmed his hunger, so he sat in front of the computer without even putting on his pants.

www.4hs.***
[Moon Zone] was re-lit, and Luo Di Ke checked it again and replied at the appropriate offline event.

Perhaps because it was early today, there were actually six offline tasks to choose from.

He simply skipped over posts that offered rewards of no more than 100 horror beans.

As you scroll to the bottom of the page,

Rody's eyes widened instantly, and he even forgot about his screaming belly.
