The lack of emotion in the stare can be very creepy. If it's just a cold, dead stare, without any hint of humanity or kindness.

In " Mental Sin," the complete version of " stare at a dragon and you will become a dragon, stare at the abyss and the abyss will give you a stare " was:
" Gaze at the Abyss. The Abyss will also give you a gaze." This sentence came from the first volume of the Chinese novel " Mental Crime ", written by Fang Yuan. What this means is that when you stare into the dark abyss, you will also be stared at by the abyss because darkness itself is also a dark existence. At the same time, this sentence also emphasized that people should be vigilant and not easily fall into the darkness because the darkness might bring unexpected danger.
