Chapter 283 The awakened bodyguard



Chapter 283 The awakened bodyguard

What new challenges will this new area bring?

Bai Ningke didn't think that the four bodyguards who quickly woke up recovered quickly through their own strength.

Safety, calmness, these words must be labeled as abnormal at that moment.

Without moving closer to the four awakened people, Bai Ning ordered the leanest one among them to come to him. He looked carefully and found that there didn't seem to be any problems on the overall level.

The mental state of this bodyguard was no different from that of ordinary people, and it was almost consistent with Bai Ning's overall impression before.

"You just woke up from a coma. Did you have any special viewing experience?"

Bai Ning asked this question bluntly, and it seemed to be a normal inquiry.

“I don’t feel anything unusual, I just feel that my mental state is very good and I can see the world more clearly.

The feeling of strength in the body is also very full, without any sense of sourness at all. "

The bodyguard responded in a plain and serious manner, basically the same way a normal high-quality bodyguard would respond to his boss.

This too normal way of responding still made Bai Ning feel a little uncomfortable.

They have experienced numerous life and death dilemmas before. A large number of his colleagues and even close friends also died tragically in such disasters. People's hearts are full of flesh. It is impossible for this bodyguard not to have any qualities in his heart. Unusual mood swings.

Whether it is fear of the current unknown environment or complaints about Bai Ning's commanding ability, these are all normal mentalities.

However, this bodyguard responded to Bai Ning's questions in a business-like manner, as if he was following Bai Ning for the first time.

The relationship between the two is just an ordinary employment superior-subordinate relationship.

He has a calm mind and a sincere attitude, and looks a bit like a strict NPC. He does not show some more delicate emotional feedback due to the tragic past experiences.

Could it be that the pain these bodyguards experienced in the fantasy space was so severe that they developed some well-behaved and stereotyped behavior patterns in their thinking and actions?

Think about it, the function of the fantasy space is to suppress the rebellion and resistance in human nature, turning the relevant personnel into a docile sheep, forever surrendering to the dominance of the fantasy space.

The docility and obedience that this bodyguard currently exhibits are trained through the illusion space, and are based on the conditioned reflex imposed by painful torture.

If this is the case, then although the four bodyguards in front of them look like normal people, in fact they have turned into obedient eagle dogs under the torture of the illusion space.

Some can only obey orders, but do not have any thoughts of their own, or they are eagle and dog puppets who dare not have any thoughts of their own.

Having lost his basic agility, he became the purest cannon fodder in the world, one who dared not complain or resist at all.

If we use a more appropriate word to describe it, these bodyguards have now become the most qualified slaves in the world.

"I heard that your wife and children always hold a celebration for your return from vacation. Do you still remember when the last gathering was?"

Based on some information previously obtained in the field of view, Bai Ning asked this question abruptly in view of the lean bodyguard's memory characteristics of attaching importance to family.

In the past, what he most recalled in the field of vision was things related to his wife and children. This kind of thing was obviously the psychological comfort he used to resist the torture of the fantasy space. It may also be the reason why he finally surrendered to the control of the fantasy space. the fundamental reason.

Sure enough, as soon as Bai Ning finished asking the question, the lean bodyguard shed two lines of tears.

The tears had nothing to do with his cold face, as if two completely different puzzle pieces were forcibly put together, giving people a sense of inconsistent emotional chaos.

It was obvious that the keywords of wife and children touched the softest part of his heart, and they were also the most cherished things that were hidden deep in his consciousness.

This kind of emotion is fierce, and it is also the most variable factor that can arouse resistance in people's hearts.

However, after the two lines of tears flowed, the bodyguard's expression did not show a collapsed and chaotic pattern, but instead seemed to become more determined.

It is obvious that during the initial resistance process, the fantasy space strengthened the emotional suppression in this aspect.

The bodyguard might really care about his wife and children, but under the power of the fantasy space, he could only pretend not to care, and tried hard to maintain the most instinctive surrender posture.

Ordinary tentative moves are meaningless.

Bai Ning has experienced the all-pervasive methods at the core of the illusion, including the warmest reunion scene, the cruelest murder scene, the most painful farewell scene, and the most torturous scene of the hostage's life and death decision.

Directly destroying the bodyguard's wife and children, threatening him with his wife and children, and making a painful farewell in the name of protection. These plots, which are specifically targeted at emotional people, must have been played out deep in the bodyguard's consciousness. How many times.

Whether it appears alone or in a mixture, there is always one that can directly touch the heart of the bodyguard.

The fact that the bodyguard completely surrendered to the illusion space has also proved the final result of him being defeated by this emotional offensive.

Wife and children, this topic may be meaningful to the bodyguard, but at that moment, it may be the most direct torture for him.

The question Bai Ning asked was equivalent to the simplest obedience test.

Only by obeying can you avoid the pain.

The tears before were because of care, and the silence after that was because of fear.

These bodyguards have completely fallen into a state of self-domestication. They no longer have the ability to believe, and it is difficult to get out of this state of self-paralysis.

Some people who have been seriously hurt emotionally, or who have been tortured in captivity, usually enter a state of self-isolation.

During this process, they will automatically isolate themselves from all external information stimulation, and instinctively self-coordinate various emotional fluctuations in their hearts.

If you want to make such people recover, you can only let them slowly blunt the damage they have suffered in a relatively stable environment, and complete the self-unblocking process through the power of time.

The day they figure it out on their own, or no longer fear the surrounding environment, will they become their most authentic selves again.

It is impossible for the four bodyguards at that moment to recover.

What's more, today's environment is still inexplicably dangerous, and whether they can leave here alive is unknown.
