I'm a mentally ill person, and I was chosen to participate in the Rules of the Strange Tales.

It was the headless corpse of a child that fell down.

The original red balloon has now turned into a bloody head!

"Pennywise, you son of a bitch!"

"I must dismember this beast!"

'boom! '

A sharpshooter fired a bullet.

‘Poof~’

A child's head was shot out, and liquid and solid matter splattered all over the surrounding children and clowns.

"Damn it! Who the hell told you to fire! Didn't I tell you to try not to hurt the children?!"

"Captain, I...no, that was one just now."

A soldier felt wronged and guilty.

That was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

But why did I miss?!

It shouldn’t be! ! !

"Captain, my head is spinning."

"Huh? Captain, where did your head go?"

"Ah! Tentacles! So many tentacles! Captain!!"

"My head, my head hurts so much, ugh!"

Du Lala watched this scene with a pale face.

The emergency response team members are all elites among elites.

But they haven't even had a chance to get close to Pennywise yet, and they've already almost lost their fighting ability.

"B2, something seems off. Do you guys really know Pennywise?"

"Well, how should I put it, I wouldn't say I know it very well. Didn't you just look at the information?"

"Have there been videos of similar emergency response teams fighting Pennywise before?"

B2 shook his head, indicating that the emergency response team generally wouldn't act rashly; previously, it was just ordinary soldiers, and the intelligence about Pennywise was compiled by them based on survivor accounts.

"Besides, this is the first time our experts have been able to pinpoint Pennywise's location. Even when we wanted to send out an emergency response team, we didn't know where Pennywise would appear."

"That's not rigorous! You're using the emergency response team for trial and error without any certainty!"

"Du Lala!"

b2 raised his voice for the first time.

“Sometimes, sacrifice is necessary. If they don’t go, then more and more children will die tragically at Pennywise’s hands. Besides, who says we have no chance?”

"Huh?" Du Lala was taken aback.

Chapter 449 No solution

Suddenly, the wristbands on the emergency response team members' wrists flashed a yellow light.

Everyone's spirits lifted, but they quickly calmed down.

In their perception, all the children and the red balloons suddenly vanished.

The headache, tentacles, and the decapitated captain all returned to normal.

"An illusion! It's fake, all fake! Everyone be vigilant!"

phantom?

Kamiya turned pale; he realized this was more than just an illusion.

Because the mission started by sending all the school's children home.

But when they first saw a group of children in their pajamas, they felt no doubt whatsoever, as if it were simply the case.

"Seventh Emergency Team Leader Kamiya reports: Pennywise possesses methods to influence human perception, making people subconsciously believe and obey."

Du Lala stared wide-eyed at the child lying in a pool of blood on the screen.

"No, what do these emergency response teams mean by hallucinations?"

"Lala, I've told you this many times already. Our emergency response team is incredibly powerful. Their bracelets are Project 135, developed by the organization to deal with Pennywise. They can stabilize a person's mind and stimulate the cerebral cortex to become more alert when the brain receives misleading signals."

Did I lose it?

Project 135 is so powerful!

However, Pennywise seems to be quite good as well, as the illusions he creates can even fool physical objects like 'cameras'.

That makes absolutely no sense.

It seems that information about Project 135 was prepared long ago, taking into account both Du Lala and Jiang Xiao.

【Project 135】

Name:

The Stone of Sobriety

Control Area:

【Huashan No. 6 Mysterious Zone】

Project Overview:

A black mineral with a diameter of about 0.5cm can generally be set in a necklace or bracelet (limited quantity, for emergency team use only).

When exposed to external stimuli, it can stimulate the cerebral cortex, and after leaving irreversible damage, it can maintain and enhance the user's mental strength for five minutes.

Project type: Spiritual blessing.

Hazard level: False safety.

Experiment record: October 12, 2023.

Recorder: Cai Ziming.

After numerous studies, experimental specialist Cai Ziming discovered that wearing the "Stone of Clarity" can invigorate the mind and sharpen hearing and vision, much like drinking coffee and Red Bull.

At the same time, considering that the effect was not very unique, he wanted to apply it to the medical field and found that Project 135 could help patients with mental illnesses return to normal.

Subsequent revisions:

Medical use prohibited!

It has been found that normal people experience severe fatigue after wearing Project 135 for extended periods, while mentally ill individuals may completely lose their sense of self within a short period, turning into madmen or committing suicide.

Project 135 is too weak in efficacy and too strong in side effects, so it is permanently banned!

Experiment record: October 9, 2024.

Recorder: Huang Yusheng.

Experiment specialist Huang Yusheng restarted the research on Project 135, feeling that the previous conclusion was too hasty (mainly because his cat was stressed and its life was in danger).

According to the research of specialist Huang Yusheng.

After his orange cat put on item 135, the item will emit a yellow glow.

The reason is that his orange cat's mentality was stimulated by external factors, and when Project 135 flashed yellow light, his orange cat was relieved of the stress response.

After multiple verifications, Huang Yusheng discovered that when the user's brain is stimulated by external stimuli, Project 135 will flash to dispel the stimulation effect.

Flashing yellow light: mild irritation

Flashing purple light: severe irritation

Further details:

Although Project 135 can dispel the immediate damage to the brain, it can still have some irreversible and unique effects on the brain afterward.

Project 135 has been disabled again, and unless there are special circumstances, it will be permanently disabled.

"Hmm? So, these emergency response teams."

"Don't worry, they know the consequences of using it, and the mission is voluntary."

"Then they really are brave warriors."

Honestly, Jiang Xiao felt that he was definitely not as brave and noble as the emergency response team. He had a wife and children; he dared not sacrifice himself, nor could he.

"No, in addition to faith, we also provide ample material support."

b2 sighed. It seemed that this chosen one was unaware of the level of material privileges being granted.

"Jiang Xiao, do you know how much you get paid for a day's work at our Qingshan Research Institute?"

"Huh? There's a salary too? I was thinking I didn't even do anything, right? Besides, even if I wanted a reward, I wouldn't ask for money. This thing is useless to me."

b2 shook his head and held out a hand.
