Doomsday Life Simulator System In A Zombie Apocalypse World Update Era Chapter 121: Forgotten Mist

[The Train Conductor, who possessed the SS-rank ntal Fortification talent, couldn’t do anything to you since his talent wasn’t for combat but for ntal defense purposes.]

[So even if his innate talent was as high as SS-rank, it only ended up benefiting you instead.]

[This ti, you didn’t share the loot with them for this innate talent, as you indeed need the SS-rank ntal Fortification talent.]

[From what your Hint Prompt discovered, you were well aware that there were rule horrors who were inclined to using ntal attacks or insanity inducents to those who triggered their rule chanism.]

[You never made a big deal out of it since your willpower and ntal fortitude were stronger than those of a normal human due to being a High Human.]

[Not only that, your Spirit attribute was at an Initial Platinum rank, and you could use spirit energy to create spirit barriers within your mind for ntal defenses.]

[Now, your ans of ntal defense beca more plentiful; you no longer hesitated to use the innate talent crystal as you crushed it and absorbed it.]

[A streak of light was released from the innate talent crystal, and as the one who crushed it, the streak of light headed to you, integrating with your soul and granting you the SS-rank ntal Fortification innate talent.]

[After acquiring the SS-rank ntal Fortification talent, you realized that you could now create ntal and spiritual barriers in the mind without using spirit energy control.]

[But if you were to combine both, the durability of such protective barriers could exceed your Spirit attribute rank by a few ranks. Not only that, but you could also create those protective barriers not just for yourself but for others as well.]

[While spirit energy control also granted such an ability, it wasn’t as robust and smooth as when you do it using ntal Fortification.]

[The protective barriers created on others using ntal Fortification were also a lot more durable, and it was connected to your innate talent, which allowed you to keep supplying it if it ever cracks when receiving attacks.]

[’From this alone, I’ve already earned quite a lot in this station, and that’s when I haven’t explored it yet. Multiplayer-type stations truly are a gold mine.’]

[’Before, I didn’t want to enter Multiplayer-type stations due to my aversion of being with other Train Conductor Duos who’d sabotage our trains and be hostile to us due to our rich resources.’]

[’Now, it’s the other way around. Those Train Conductor Duos are the ones fearing as I have every purpose to dismantle their trains and farm them for innate talent crystals.’]

[You were quite worried about encountering other Train Conductors in the earlier stages.]

[After all, it would be a problem to encounter those lustful bastards as they’d want to kill you and then assault Jade.]

[Now that the laws of Terra no longer bound their malicious desires, it would be wishful thinking that they’d act kindly and spare you, especially when you’re the weaker party.]

[So, your solution was to keep on avoiding multiplayer-type stations as you weren’t an idiot who’d risk Jade and your lives and wellbeing. But now, you wanted to keep entering these Multiplayer-type stations to farm Train Cores and Innate Talent Crystals.]

[After you killed all those Train Conductors, you were no longer worried that those idiots would sabotage your exploration of the Rule Horror Maze, as they were already six feet under.]

[Surveying your surroundings, you saw a huge wall of blood and flesh. You couldn’t tell if this was just a wall or a maze or none of the above.]

[Unlike usual mazes, where if you were afar, you could see the layout of the maze from a high ground perspective, there wasn’t such an advantage in the Ruler Horror Maze.]

[Not only were the walls of flesh so tall, but when you attempted to fly and see its layout from a bird’s eye view, what you saw was eerie dark mist obscuring its layout.]

[When you observed the eerie dark mist, you felt like sothing had impacted the protective barriers you set up around your mind, which caused you to avert your gaze from it hastily.]

{Hint Prompt: The Eerie Dark Mist is the main body of the Forgotten Mist, which is at Late Platinum rank. The Forgotten Mist causes everyone who sees it to forget every mory about themselves and lose their sense of self.

Aside from causing the loss of self, it doesn’t do anything and is harmless as long as you can protect your mind, as it cannot cause any sort of physical attacks. However, if you touch or ca into contact with the eerie dark mist, the negative effects of the eerie dark mist will be able to affect you more as compared to looking at it.}

{Hint Prompt: At every ten-minute interval, the Forgotten Mist will summon the sense of self it deprived from others. Pretend they do not exist, or else if they figure out that you can see them, it will trigger their rule chanism and cause them to assimilate themselves with you.]

{Hint Prompt: There are still 8 minutes and 46 seconds before the ten-minute interval of the Forgotten Mist.}

[Reading the Hint Prompt, you were glad that you averted your gaze from it.]

[’The Hint Prompt simulation talent is really the bane of these rule horrors.’]

[’The advantage of rule horrors is that upon restricting themselves with rule chanisms to limit their attack range and scope, the resulting attack would be way stronger compared to indiscriminately attacking, making it feel like they possess absolute power.’]

[’Most people will have to pay with the lives of others to figure out the rule chanisms of each rule horror. But in my case, I can just get the answer key imdiately by using the hint prompt.’]

[Even with that advantage, you didn’t let it cloud your judgent as overconfidence would only lead to ruin.]

[Looking at the really tall, bloody flesh wall, you headed to its opening, which was the entrance.]

[At the entrance, you saw a signboard that displayed the introduction of the Rule Horror Maze as well as its rules.]
