Shen Bai came back to his senses. He looked at the brain-shaped aberration and narrowed his eyes. "I think I understand."
Zhao Sheng was also affected, but his strength allowed him to resist.
Hearing Shen Bai's words, Zhao Sheng asked.
"Lord Shen, what have you figured out?"
Shen Bai stroked his chin and said, "This brain-shaped aberration seems capable of controlling others, including other aberrations. And perhaps because it's shaped like a brain, its instincts retain some memories from its former life—though they're limited to just that, instincts."
This was Shen Bai's idea, but it was also just a guess.
This guess was based on information Shen Bai had read before. After all, he was no longer the rookie who had just left Shengyun County.
Zhao Sheng thought Shen Bai's guess made sense.
After all, it seemed to be the only explanation that could clearly account for everything happening before them.
Just then, the first to show a problem wasn't the brain-shaped aberration.
