Doomsday Begins with a Nightmare

(Hint: Lin Nan appeared in Chapter 193, Special Expert, and met Lin Mo when he was dealing with the Evolution Forum event)

Lin Nan in Lin Mo's memory was a very introverted eleven-year-old boy. Although he had a world-weary face and was sick, he was very kind and could chat and play with Lin Mo.

Although the contact time was short, the two were already very good friends.

So Lin Mo knows Lin Nan very well.

After Lin Nan approached, Lin Mo was stunned.

The atmosphere is not right.

Lin Nan looked indifferent at the moment, because he couldn't move and needed to rely on a wheelchair, but he could use the power of the nightmare in his body to move.

The nightmare in his body will stretch out some limbs, like spider legs, to hold Lin Nan up.

The same is true at this moment.

It made him look more like a nightmare.

Lin Mo also noticed that Lin Nan also had a 'Night Watchman badge' on his chest.

When the person walking on tiptoe saw Lin Nan, he immediately stood at attention and saluted: "Director!"

Secretary?

Lin Mo thought that he would be promoted quite quickly, but he did not expect Lin Nan to be even more fierce.

It's been a long time since I saw you, and you've all become the director?

And looking at the Night's Watch badge on the chest, in all likelihood, he is the head of this newly established department.

But there are big questions here. How could the General Administration trust an eleven-year-old child to be the chief? Even if Lin Nan is a special expert, he can't do this.

Hungry or not?

No one available?

The problem is that there are too many people in the expert group of the General Administration who are suitable for being the director. If nothing else, Lin Mo's former boss, Captain Chen Bing, is strong, calm, and old enough. No matter how you look at it, it's not Lin Nan's turn.

Lin Mo still wanted to get close to Lin Nan, but the next moment, he swallowed what he was about to say.

Lin Nan asked the previous night watchman about the situation with a serious expression, and then also checked Lin Mo's documents.

"Level five researcher, Lin Mo, can you tell me what happened here? Why is there a nightmare in the alley behind you?"

Lin Nan's tone was like talking to a stranger.

Lin Mo looked at Lin Nan's indifferent eyes and thought deeply.

"I'm practicing!"

"Practice what?"

"Let's learn from the nightmares I control. You know, I used to be a member of the expert group of the General Administration. After I was transferred to the Academy of Sciences, I needed to do an experiment for more than ten days. I was tired, so I came out for activities."

Lin Nan did not speak with a cold face, and looked behind Lin Mo at this time.

Xiao Yu, who was wearing a black dress, walked out of the alley slowly.

She walked slowly, and the black dress seemed to blend in with the surrounding colors, as if she was the night.

In addition, in her hand, there is a beat up doll bunny.

Straight hum!

Every now and then a rabbit's leg twitches.

Xiaoyu looked at Lin Nan.

Apparently she remembered the man.

But Lin Mo didn't speak, and she wouldn't be too busy.

Hand the rabbit to Lin Mo, and Xiaoyu disappeared without a trace.

She went back to the pencil.

"Researcher Lin, the security zone stipulates that any unapproved nightmares are not allowed to operate in the public area. This time I will only inform the Academy of Sciences. Next time, I will directly arrest you, please don't do it again."

After Lin Nan finished speaking, he asked the subordinate over there to record it, and then the ghost claw stretched out behind his back and quickly left.

After the other night watchman finished recording the situation, he also turned and left.

Lin Mo stood there for a long time.

"Light rain!"

Behind him, Xiao Yu flashed out.

"Do you know what happened to Lin Nan?"

As he said that, Lin Mo took out the pencil and diary, while Xiaoyu reached out and held Lin Mo's hand and wrote a paragraph in the diary.

"That person is not Lin Nan."

Pen Immortal's probing ability can't go wrong, and Lin Mo actually thought of this result.

Indeed, apart from his appearance, the person just now felt like a completely different person.

Lin Mo felt that something must have happened to Lin Nan.

Right now, he can only continue to ask Xiaoyu.

"Then who is he?"

"A nightmare!"

Xiaoyu's answer was also very concise.

But seeing this answer, Lin Mo's heart skipped a beat.

He still remembered the agreement with Lin Nan.

Take the other party back to the Green Garden Community as a guest and play games together.

"Where did the real Lin Nan go?" Lin Mo was very concerned about this matter. He had to figure it out. If Xiaoyu couldn't give him the answer he wanted, he would find the answer himself.

Xiaoyu grabbed Lin Mo's hand and wrote "dead" in the diary.

Then he hesitated again, and added the word 'maybe' in front.

Maybe dead?

The answer is obviously not deterministic.

More Xiaoyu should not know that the prediction and detection ability of the pen fairy is not omnipotent.

Lin Mo cleaned up his mood now, and then looked at the rabbit that had returned to the form of a doll in his hand.

This thing seems to have been hit so hard, and the whole is in a state of shock and confusion. Xiaoyu is quite measured and won't kill it, but suffering some hardships is unavoidable.

For this rabbit, it should be cleaned up severely, otherwise this guy will always have fantasies.

The preliminary test of 'Xianmo Soup' is so far. So far, the effect on Nightmare is qualified. Originally, Lin Mo planned to do further tests. What a nightmare it turned into, but Lin Nan's incident disrupted his plan.

Back at the Academy of Sciences, Lin Mo first stuffed the rabbit into the cardboard box.

Then go to Vice President Zheng.

During this time of getting along and working together, the relationship between Vice President Zheng and Lin Mo has risen to a certain stage and they are very familiar, so Lin Mo did not beat around the bush.

"Vice President Zheng, how much do you know about the special experts of the General Administration?"

Deputy Dean Zheng was stunned for a while, and then said: "I have participated in the special expert plan, although this is a secret, but you are now a fifth-level researcher, within the scope of your authority, I can tell you, you Want to know what?"

"Do you know Lin Nan?"

"Of course, he is the first special expert, what happened to him?"

Lin Mo simply threw out his doubts.

"I used to work with Lin Nan and knew him. I met him outside just now. He... seems to be a different person... He doesn't know me at all."

"I know about this." Vice President Zheng didn't hide it: "Some time ago, Lin Nan had an accident while performing a mission, and his main consciousness has collapsed. To put it more simply, the original Lin Nan has been sacrificed. It took a lot of effort for Professor Xie to activate one of his sub-personality and take over the body. You must know that special experts are very important to the General Administration, so there will be some emergency backup plans, otherwise you will not only lose It's just a special expert, and it will also lead to the release of the nightmare in his body, you should be able to understand this."

Lin Mo frowned.

He does understand.

Because of the invasion of Nightmare World, it often requires the sacrifice and dedication of some people.

For example, when establishing the Qianlong safe area, the entire safe area needs to be cleaned up, and all nightmares in this area must be killed.

But not all nightmares can be killed.

What can't be killed, can only be thought of to 'close' them up.

And the prison that blocks these nightmares may not be a physical closed area in the normal sense, but a nominal prison.

Such a prison could be a house, a bottle, a cage, or, alternatively, a human body.

The human body can be used as a cage.

The Academy of Sciences has long discovered the effect of the 'cage' curse and has already applied it in practice. However, the means used are relatively simple. At first, it was found that this curse can only work on the human body.

So in the beginning, there was a group of dedicated volunteers who took the initiative to block these nightmares with their own bodies.

As you can imagine, this is also risky.

Once the person encounters an accident, or even dies, what should be done?

Only by setting up insurance, that is, after the death of this person, another 'person' can take over their body, which can ensure safety.

Lin Mo has consulted similar experimental reports, so he knows what Vice President Zheng said. Strictly speaking, the bodies of these people no longer belong to them.

Obviously Lin Nan also falls into this category.

Before coming to ask Vice President Zheng, Lin Mo was already mentally prepared, so he was not shocked when he heard the news, just a little silent.

Vice President Zheng also sighed at this time: "Hey, Professor Xie should be the saddest in this matter. Lin Nan is his adopted child. For more details, you can ask Professor Xie."

Lin Mo nodded.

He did have this plan.

Professor Xie, the first person in charge of the Academy of Sciences of the General Administration, the dean, and one of the top leaders within the General Administration.

Great influence in China.

In the past, it was quite difficult for Lin Mo to meet Professor Xie, but now, Deputy Dean Zheng said he could arrange it. It was only later that I learned that the report on the nightmare suppressant had been submitted. Professor Xie also attached great importance to this matter. After all, if the effectiveness and safety of this nightmare suppressant could be proven, it could be used by the leadership.

This is of course no trivial significance.

As the 'developer' of this drug, Professor Xie himself wanted to meet.

Deputy Dean Zheng made a phone call, put down the phone and informed Lin Mo that Professor Xie just had time. If you want to see him, follow him now.

Lin Mo couldn't ask for it.

Lin Mo, who is honored and praised, doesn't care now, he just wants to ask Lin Nan what happened.

Following Vice President Zheng, Lin Mo went to the bottom floor of the Academy of Sciences.

Under normal circumstances, entry is not allowed here, even if Lin Mo is a fifth-level researcher.

Vice President Zheng led Lin Mo to the door of an office, knocked on the door, heard the word 'come in', pushed the door open and entered.

Inside, Professor Xie was reading the report.

Lin Mo had seen it on TV, so he recognized it at a glance.

"Old Zheng, I have read the report on the Nightmare Suppression Drug. There is no problem. You have done it very rigorously. Next, as long as you pass the third test, you can get it."

Professor Xie said with a smile.

Vice President Zheng smiled and nodded, then introduced Lin Mo.

"Researcher Lin, I've wanted to see you for a long time." Professor Xie and Lin Mo shook hands, but before Lin Mo could speak, Professor Xie took the initiative to say, "Lin Nan and I mentioned you."

Lin Mo moved in his heart.

"Lin Nan, I watched him grow up. He grew up in a laboratory and had no friends, but that time he came back and told me that he made a friend."

Lin Mo didn't expect that Professor Xie took the initiative to mention Lin Nan before he asked.

At this time, Deputy Dean Zheng left with an interesting farewell, leaving only Lin Mo and Professor Xie in the office.

At this time, Professor Xie greeted Lin Mo to follow him, pushed open the door, walked along the corridor to the end, and stopped at the door of a room marked '001'.

Then, push the door in.

"This is Lin Nan's room. After his accident, he never came back. After all, his body has changed owners." When he said this, Professor Xie was obviously holding back his emotions.

Lin Mo could see that Professor Xie cared about Lin Nan very much.

It can be seen from some small actions.

For example, he would stare at a picture on the wall in the room and laugh, that kind of laughter comes from the heart and cannot be faked.

And the content of that painting is Professor Xie himself.

It should be painted by Lin Nan.

To Lin Mo's surprise, he actually saw himself.

That is another painting.

Because the painting is so vivid, he is carrying a backpack, tying a balloon, and holding a brick in his hand, so he can recognize it at a glance.

There is writing next to the painting.

"My best friend, Lin Mo!"

It's a very simple room with some clutter, with a small TV and game console projected from the real world.

It seems that Lin Nan is not bragging about saying that he often plays games.

Professor Xie was very familiar with this room. He looked around, sat on the ground, and asked Lin Mo to sit down. Only then did he tell the story of Lin Nan's accident.

"Lin Nan is a special expert and the strongest person in the General Bureau, but under normal circumstances, he will not be used to perform tasks. After all, there are seven very special nightmares imprisoned in Lin Nan's body. If something goes wrong, the consequences will be very serious. Serious." Professor Xie sighed: "But that time, the situation was a bit special..."

"You are also a member of the expert group of the General Administration. You must know that many things that exist in the nightmare world are projections of the real world, including nightmares, which are also transformed by fear after living people are polluted. More than a month ago, Qianlong City A pollution source appeared in the suburban Dogumen District. Coincidentally, at that time, a university in the city carried out off-campus activities there. When the pollution source appeared, more than two classes and more than 80 teachers and students lost contact with the outside world. The General Administration sent someone to go there. , found that the teachers and students fell into a deep sleep, and no accident was trapped in a nightmare world. After that, according to the process, several experts from the General Administration fell into a dream, but the problem occurred, they did not have any news, and they did not wake up again, that place It's like a restricted area that can only be entered and cannot be exited..."

Lin Mo was immediately attracted to his attention.

He had encountered a similar situation, and it was the same on Route 66 in Black Crow City.

"Is it the Cage Curse?" Lin Mo asked.

Professor Xie nodded: "It should be, the situation was urgent at the time, so the General Administration applied for special expert access, and Lin Nan went there... Originally, the next day was his birthday."

"Lin Nan didn't come out?" Lin Mo asked subconsciously, but soon Lin Mo knew that he had asked the wrong question. If Lin Nan hadn't come out, it would have been impossible for him to meet him outside the Academy of Sciences just now.

What Lin Mo didn't expect was that Professor Xie said, "Yes, Lin Nan didn't come out, or the real him didn't come out."

Lin Mo frowned.

"That was the third day that Lin Nan went in. There were people on the outside, but the General Administration assessed the level of danger in the Dogumen area to be the highest, and it was strictly forbidden for anyone to enter, so people outside had to wait. Later, Lin Nan came out, but at that time, He was in a state of being out of control, and the seven nightmares on him were all vying for the control of the body. At that time, I knew something had happened, so I could only use the backup plan to activate the sub-personality, and then I regained control of Lin Nan's body. ."

Professor Xie was silent for a while, and then said: "I know very well that Lin Nan's subjective consciousness has died out, otherwise the nightmare sealed in his body cannot be out of control. And his body can come out because of the seven sealed in his body. Nightmare is also very terrifying, after this incident, the Dolphin Gate area was listed as a restricted area, and the news about the Dolphin Gate District was completely sealed."

Lin Mo nodded.

Similar to this nightmare area, collectively referred to as the "black box", that is to say, the outside world has no understanding of this area at all, and there is no way to understand it.

It is said that there are many "black box" areas in foreign countries, but there are relatively few in China.

Dolphin Gate is one of them.

However, it is clear that the above must be very afraid of this dolphin gate area, and they want to explore it very much. After all, the dolphin gate area is on the outskirts of Qianlong City and is very close to the Qianlong Safety Zone.

Leaving such a black box next to it is like putting a ticking time bomb.

At this time, Lin Mo asked what that sub-personality was?

"A controllable nightmare that grows with the main consciousness and has some memories of the main consciousness. You can think of it as Lin Nan who grew up in another way."

Lin Mo understood.

At this time, Lin Mo noticed that there seemed to be words written on his portrait on the wall.

"My best friend, Lin Mo." There is a line of smaller words behind it: "I'm looking forward to visiting your house..."

Lin Mo was silent.

Professor Xie got up: "You can stay here for a while~www.wuxiaspot.com~ After that, you will go out.

At this time, Lin Mo suddenly asked: "Professor Xie, what happened to the college students you mentioned just now and the other experts who entered the Dolphin Gate area to explore in advance? Are they dead?"

Professor Xie probably guessed what Lin Mo meant: "Within three days, they will die one after another."

Lin Mo asked again: "Professor Xie, do you think that Lin Nan is not dead, he is just like everyone else, but he is trapped inside and can't get out?"

Professor Xie smiled bitterly: "I hope too, but I am a scientist and can only speculate based on the actual situation. The actual situation is that there is a dead zone there. Anyone who enters it will die after three days."

Lin Mo nodded and didn't ask any more.

After Professor Xie left, Lin Mo took out the diary and looked at the four words Xiaoyu wrote about Lin Nan.

"Maybe dead!"
