Chapter 155
The night was dark, covering everything in blackness.
Bai Yi brought the slime monster he had captured to a temporary shelter and immediately began his research.
If one only looked at the initial narrative when entering the nightmare instance, the slime monster would seem like a “monster lurking in the darkness, always ready to hunt anyone exposed before them.” However, the reality was quite different.
“It doesn’t possess any characteristics of a living organism, more like a moving, distorted corpse. It could remain completely motionless in one spot for hours. Even if someone passed by, it would not actively attack. No, to be precise, it wouldn’t even counterattack if actively attacked. It’s simply like a soft stone…”
—If this was the case, then how could one explain the experience of this body? How could one explain those monsters that madly pounced on the mother and daughter in the darkness?
“The only difference is… golden flower?”
“…Or rather, light?”
“…Would these monsters become aggressive when seeing light? Would carrying a luminous object trigger their attack?”
Was this the origin of the narrative line “light represents death”?
