Vol 6 Chapter 523: Arrivals?

"How long have I been here?"
Dark, wet, horrible...
This place is too much pressure for a personality creature, but this Atlan has been unable to turn back, it can only go to the end of this horror, looking for its goal. √∟
But how far is that goal? It is no longer able to know the answer.

Why is this...
When Atlan tried to open the map in the helmet, it found that the map was displayed but did not show where it was.
There is only one reason for this problem, because the helmet's map locator is positioned based on brain-bases distributed throughout the world.
But it may not receive the signals from those bases now, so the location cannot be confirmed.
However, the helmet still receives the words of Maya, so it feels very strange...
‘Hey! Suddenly, a sound rang in the helmet, and Atlan was shocked and immediately slammed on the ground, igniting a powder.
It climbed a little forward and used the helmet's far-sight function to look far away...
"The bones are coming out again."
A few meters in front of it, a group of skeletons are dancing around a small mushroom hill, they are constantly shaking their bodies and dancing.
It seems very strange, but Maya and Atlan explained that the movement of the skeleton is to 'clear'.
Because their 'flesh and blood' is easy to coagulate without vigorous activity, this seems to be a side effect of fungal transformation, so these skeletons must always keep moving.
And they are very hostile to the surrounding non-fungal creatures. However, the perception is not very strong. Just hide at a certain distance. They can't be found.

Hey?

A skeleton seems to have found something. It looked up into the distance and then ran away immediately, and the other skeletons followed, and ran away.
"It’s finally gone." After seeing the skeleton run away, Atlan stood up and prepared to move on, but... it hesitated.
It is now unable to confirm whether the direction in which it is going is whether it is ‘front’ or whether it is in the same place. It doesn't know at all... and Maya can't help it, and it hasn't been spoken to it for a long time.
‘Hey! Suddenly, there was another sound in the helmet, which surprised Atlan again, but it found that the voice was a signal from a ... companion.
As long as the same armor is in the vicinity to enter the detection area, Atlan's helmet will receive a signal.
There is the same armor in the vicinity... Is it a companion?
With amazement, Atlan quickly ran to the direction shown in the helmet.
"That... that is!"
After running for a while, Atlan saw a fallen giant mushroom in front, and there was a... Atlan under the stipe that fell to the ground.
It is wearing the same armor as it. But there are no weapons in his hand, and there are several skeletons around him.
"I will come to save you!"
Atlan immediately shouted. It picks up the weapon in your hand...
'boom! ‘The precise warhead instantly hit the head of a skeleton, and the head of the bone burst open, and all the other skeletons suddenly made a strange scream and flew over to Atlan.
However, under the impact of the warhead, no skeleton can approach Atlan, they all fell to the ground.
"Are you okay? Why come here?"
It immediately ran to the surrounded companion, and walked here for a long time. Although he saw a companion, he felt extremely excited, but he also had a lot of doubts.
"I……"
And this newly rescued companion opened his mouth and suddenly fell to the ground.
"What's wrong with you! What's wrong with you!"
Atlan quickly used the life detection function in the helmet, and found that the companion was still alive, but lost consciousness.
‘Hey! At this time, Atlan suddenly found that it received the signal, which is another companion signal.
"How come there is another one?" Atlan looked at the companion who was lying on the ground now. It was hesitant to look at it. It couldn’t leave it alone, but it wanted to go...
‘Hey! Suddenly, Atlan received another companion signal, which is another direction.
"Why are there so many? How did they come over?" Atlan is now overwhelmed, and at this moment, the Mayan voice that had not been contacted for a long time has appeared in its helmet.
"You test this faint brainwave." This sentence is very simple.
"Brainwave?" Atlan stunned. It knows that their armor has the function of detecting the brain and can detect whether their mental state is normal.
Although it was strange, Atlan listened to Maya's rapid opening of the detection function. After detecting the brainwave of this companion, it found that the spirit of this companion showed 'abnormality'.
"This happened." Maya’s voice said: "Your kindness has been affected since that time."
"What?" Atlan apparently did not understand what Maya said. It questioned: "What was the image?"
"It's you... when you eat the worm."
"The worm..." Atlan suddenly reacted and said: "Don't you say..."
"Yes, that is the worm that you often hunt." The voice of Maya came from there, but this is not actually Maya talking, but the worm is saying: "Why do you think that worm is so good? Why is it so easy to be captured? Why is it no danger? It is not for you to eat in vain..."
"After eating those beetles, your brain will be affected and infected by fungi, and you will eventually go to this place!"
"How can this be……"
Atlan just finished saying this, and it was surprised to find that the helmet continuously showed a large number of signals, and at least ten companions nearby were moving to the side.
"There are so many..."
"Don't pay attention to them, you must move on, go to the center, see what I want you to see, leave this place!"
Under the sound of the helmet, Atlan didn't care so much. It immediately turned and ran, leaving the strange place that kept echoing the signal.
On the other side of the distant void, Maya is thinking about the situation here.
Maya looked at Atlan here for a while, so I also knew that they were hunting those beetles on the edge of the fungus area. In fact, besides the giant creatures and skeletons that were transformed, the beetles were very strange things, something to be suspected. ......
Now, Maya finally understands that the beetles did not appear there for no reason.
Their role is to capture Atlan, and Atlan's existing instruments can't detect the danger of beetles, but in fact, if they eat the beetles, they may be controlled by...
What effect may have on their brains, the affected Atlan will go deep into the fungal area, but the detailed principles are not known...
"Have you ever eaten a beetle?"
Thinking of this, Maya questioned Atlan, who was moving forward.
"That... I haven't eaten yet," Atlan said. "We have a lot of other food in our camp, so I haven't eaten that... I feel something disgusting."
"that's good."
"But..." Atlan asked: "Do they still save? I mean, after eating the beetles, can they get rid of this infection?"
"It is possible, and the impact is not comprehensive." Maya said: "Come on, move on, you can observe their direction to find the right route, where is your goal!"
"……I know."
Say, Atlan continues to move forward quickly.
After hundreds of seconds, Atlan had something new in front of him.
Originally there were only white carpets and giant umbrellas, and now in front of it, there is a woodland with a lot of fungal structure.
These fungal structures include mushrooms of various shapes and structures of other shapes, and around this fungus woodland, Atlan sees a group of living creatures.
It immediately slammed down and looked at the creatures carefully with the helmet's farsightedness.
"I finally found them."
The Mayan voice sounded in its head, and Atlan found that the creatures were also beetle-shaped.
However, the shape is rather strange, they are thinner, about one meter in length, and they have only four limbs.
And their most conspicuous place is their carapace, the crystal clear carapace seems to be able to directly see the internal organs inside, these beetles are gathering in and out of the fungus jungle, as if carrying something.
Atlana looked a little clearer. It was a little closer. It found that the beetles were carrying objects that seemed to be very soft, and they piled them all out of the fungus woodland.
"What are those..." Atlan was wondering when his voice suddenly sounded in his helmet...
"Come on! They found you!"
"What?" Atlan was shocked. It suddenly saw the beetles all looking at this side.
At this moment, the beetles suddenly appeared in the jungle behind them... a lot of skeletons.
As they made a sound of Karakak, they rushed over to Atlan's position. Atlan quickly raised his weapon, and the roaring explosion echoed under the dust-covered sky...
......
The battle didn't last long. Even if Atlan had weapons, the number of skeletons was too much. They easily drowned the Atlan, but did not kill it, but took off its armor. And then dragged it into the fungus woodland.
Maya passed the helmet that Atlan was thrown on the ground, watching the Atlan being dragged into the jungle, it has decided...
"...the action failed, go in person." (To be continued, please search for astronomical literature, the novel is better updated faster!
