Dong dong dong...

Zhou Zhen's heart was beating violently, and even though he was out of crisis, it was still beating like a drum.

The battle just now was just a face-to-face encounter, not very intense, but for some reason, it made him feel extremely uneasy!

It seemed to be a tremor coming from deep within the genes.

Taking a few deep breaths, Zhou Zhen gradually calmed down. He was now using the "Digital Domain" of the "Seventh Ladder", [Equation Playback], and what he was playing back was Chu Jingyan's "Number Domain", [Dream Kingdom].

This "digital domain" is a "digital forest" with a [Mobius strip].

This square now is the beginning of the "ring";

The battle with the [Leader] is the end of the "ring".

The beginning and the end are intertwined.

If he loses the next battle, the "ring" will jump from the end to the beginning, and everything will start again.

If he wins, the ending is the end and the "ring" will simply disappear!

[Leader]'s defense is a bit ridiculously high.

[Fusion Cube] can't hurt the opponent at all, then use [Fantasy Divine Kingdom] to kill the opponent bit by bit!

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhen took steps and walked towards the mist behind the thousand-year-old ancient maple again.

Step, step, step...

In the empty square, footsteps gradually became denser.

Ji Xuexun, Chu Jingyan, Ren Rui... As Zhou Zhen advanced, one after another figures appeared beside him.

Liang Xiaodie, Feng Wenwen, Fan Nian, Lu Han... there are more and more people.

"Digital Domain", [Nightmare Mirror]!

After walking for a while, an overwhelming black and red cube suddenly appeared in front of Zhou Zhen. The moment these cubes appeared, they immediately turned into energy shock waves, roaring towards the fog in front of them.

Boom boom boom! ! !

Amidst the deafening noise, the ground shook violently, and the thick fog was instantly dissipated by the impact. The dust and sand that obscured the vision fell all over the ground, and the scene originally hidden in the fog soon appeared.

A dozen [Growth Stage] infected people who had just emerged from the metal cocoon were riddled with holes by the [Fusion Cube] before they had time to make any move, and no one made any sound anymore.

Each inactive body was suspended in the air by thin metal wires, maintaining an upright posture.

In mid-air, dense metal threads spread across the sky like spider caves.

They are entangled with each other and hung with numerous metal cocoons. The cocoons are piled up like mountains, like mountains hanging upside down.

Above this mountain of silk threads and cocoons, a huge metal human face floats quietly.

This time, Zhou Zhen had no intention of looking up, but for some reason, the fog just dissipated, and the first picture that appeared in front of him was the [Leader] with a smooth face, like a bronze face without facial features!

No matter whether he opens his eyes, closes them, or looks in any other direction, he can only see the [Leader] and countless metal threads extending from his body, submerging into the void, passing through the vast distance. Wind, connected to the back of [Leader], becomes a member controlled by the opponent's "hair".

This scene filled his field of vision, and he couldn't even see the other personalities right next to him.

Knowing that something was wrong, eight metal rings of different colors immediately rose above Zhou Zhen's head.

"Digital Domain", [Equation Playback - Analog Celestial Objects]!

As soon as the eight metal rings appeared, they immediately began to move according to the orbits of the eight planets in the solar system. Their speed became faster and faster, and soon they quickly rose from Zhou Zhen's head, maintaining the shape of the entire galaxy, flying high into the sky, and smashing hard. To the [leader].

There was silence in the sky. [The Leader] was motionless and did not receive any damage. He could only see eight metal rings flying backwards at the same speed, seemingly being bounced away.

Boom boom boom...

Zhou Zhen heard a violent roar next to him, and along with the violent vibration of energy, his other personalities seemed to take action.

But he could only see the [Leader] and nothing else.

The [Leader] was hanging intact in the sky, and the metal threads coming out of Zhou Zhen's body were growing like mushrooms after a rain.

Soon, Zhou Zhen's limbs, back, waist and abdomen... were all covered with thin but flexible silk threads. He was now like a completed puppet, with clues for control hanging on all joints.

Zhou Zhen closed his eyes again.

When he opened it, he was back at the entrance of Danfeng Square.

Looking at the empty square in front of him and the mist behind the thousand-year-old maple, Zhou Zhen took a deep breath. His "Seventh Step" [Fusion Cube] was no less powerful than the small nuclear bomb in the "Xiangda" shopping mall case. explode!

Moreover, under his control, the energy of the [Fusion Cube] is more concentrated than that of a small nuclear bomb!

But now, neither his [Fusion Cube] nor Duan Lihe's [Simulated Celestial Body] can even break the skin of a [Complete Body] infected person!

[Complete body] The infected person's defense seems to be beyond the reach of "Seventh Ladder" compatibility!

"wrong!"

"If the compatibility of the 'Seventh Step' cannot even break through the defense of the [Complete] infected person, it is impossible to assign this task to me."

"Maybe I overlooked something..."

"[Leader]...[Follower]..."

"Those infected people in the [Growth Stage] in the cocoon should all be followers of the [Leader]."

"This time, let's try to deal with those [followers] first..."

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhen continued walking towards the mist.

Boom boom boom...

[Fusion Cube] opened the way, the majestic shock wave washed away the fog, and the scene behind Gu Feng became clear again.

Zhou Zhen did not hesitate and immediately took action against the cocoon mountain hanging upside down in the air.

Thousands of black and red cubes were suspended in the air, emitting heart-stopping fluctuations, aimed at Cocoon Mountain, and launched with a roar.

Boom boom boom boom…

※※※

Binhai City, High-tech Zone.

On the road covered with various roadblocks, checkpoints and checkpoints, a modified medium-sized bus with a "concession pass" was driving in a stop-and-go manner.

There was a vague smell of blood inside the car.

On the side of the car door, sitting in the front is a fair-skinned middle-aged man who must have a successful career. His hair, suit, and leather shoes all have traces of elegance. He also wears a simple and elegant design on his wrist with a prominent LOGO. watch.

Although he looked depressed at the moment, this man still sat with his back straight, as if the rules he had developed since childhood had been engraved in his bones.

In contrast, the young man diagonally behind him was still wearing a courier uniform, his hair was messy, his hands were covered with calluses, and he was obviously in an ordinary condition.

However, unlike the middle-aged man who was preoccupied, this young man had a sense of relief and excitement in his eyes even though he was sitting there quietly, and he seemed to be in a good mood.

Behind these two people, in the middle part of the bus, there were several bloody figures sitting in twos and threes. There were men and women, some with their arms wrapped around their legs, or their heads tied with bandages. At this moment, they all had their eyes tightly closed. He closed his eyes and looked gloomy.

Among the wounded, the one in the best condition was a woman. She looked to be about thirty years old. She was wearing a navy blue skirt, a low bun, and a pair of black mid-heeled leather shoes. She was dressed very smartly, and she seemed to be an office worker.

The original light makeup on his face has been washed away by sweat or tears, and there are still some minor scratches on his arms. Now he is looking at the scenery outside the car expressionlessly, without saying a word.

In the last row of the bus, two injured people who seemed to be seriously injured were lying motionless. They were covered with floral quilts that they got from nowhere.

In the front row on the driver's side is a young, beautiful girl with a very different style from ordinary people.

Tan Wenyu lowered her head and looked at the screen of her mobile phone, which had automatically turned off due to a long period of unanswered calls.

The screen reflected the two drivers in front of her.

This medium-sized bus has been modified with a double driver's seat and two drivers sitting side by side.

Both drivers should be male.

The reason why I say it should be is because they are all hidden in a black battle suit, and they also wear a fully enclosed helmet on their head. The helmet has a symbol of black flames surrounding a silver skull.

With this appearance, it was completely impossible to identify the age and gender of the other party. We could only judge from the hoarse voice of the other party when he briefly spoke when he got in the car.

This is a special car that escorts survivors out of the city.

The passengers in the car, including Tan Wenyu herself, are all survivors who have survived the disaster and have been tested repeatedly and will not spread the "digital virus".

The driver and the deputy beside the driver are official "ghosts."

Due to the weakening of [Murphy's Law], officials have begun arranging for non-combatants to evacuate Binhai City to avoid unnecessary losses.

Although Tan Wenyu has just become a compatible person, she is only the "first step" after all. In this kind of disaster sweeping the city, she is also a rescued person.

At this moment, the car was as quiet as death, and the atmosphere was very low.

After passing several scans ahead, the barrier at the checkpoint was raised, and the "ghost" driving the car turned the steering wheel. After leaving this temporary checkpoint, he suddenly said: "After I send everyone out of Binhai City, there will be Someone will be waiting for you."

"If you have relatives and friends in other cities who can seek refuge, or have a specific place to go, you can register with them."

"According to the procedure, all survivors who leave Binhai City need to rest in a camp on the outskirts for half a month and can only leave after confirming that there are no problems."

"This is also an arrangement for you and your relatives and friends. I hope everyone will cooperate."

The people in the car were in a very bad mood at the moment, and no one answered for a while.

Tan Wenyu was also anxious. The mobile phone in her hand was stopped on the call history interface. There had been dozens of calls to the two numbers "Dad" and "Mom", but no one answered.

Seeing that no one spoke, the "ghost" driver and his companions frowned slightly.

The probability of these survivors who have experienced the "digital virus" to become compatible in the future is much higher than that of ordinary people.

But similarly, the disaster of "digital virus" will bring great psychological shadow to the survivors.

Those who cannot come out of the shadows can easily become extremists.

International illegal organizations, as well as compatible criminals in high-risk cities, were just ordinary survivors of the "digital virus" disaster at the beginning...

Thinking of this, the "ghost" driver wanted to let the people in the car talk more to relieve their emotions, and suddenly asked: "Classmate Tan, I heard from No. 024, do you want to join the officialdom in the future?"

Hearing this, Tan Wenyu came back to her senses, nodded vigorously, and said, "Yes!"

"I heard from Commander Zhou that if you join the officialdom, you can become stronger!"

Tan Wenyu is very young and very beautiful. She is the center of attention wherever she goes. As a student of the School of Art, even if she is not a broadcasting major, she has a sweet and pleasant voice. When she opens her mouth, everyone in the car will subconsciously understand her even if they are still in a bad mood. He looked up at her.

"Ghost" didn't know who "Chief Zhou" Tan Wenyu was talking about, but his current purpose was just to liven up the atmosphere, so he didn't study this "Chief Zhou" in detail. He just said in a relaxed tone: "If you want to join the official, you don't have to An easy thing.”

"Let's do this. If you can beat everyone in the car in arm wrestling, I will apply for you when I get back!"

After the words fell, the deputy "Ghost" took the lead in letting out a burst of joking laughter. Everyone in the car curled up their lips and laughed a little.

A young and delicate little girl, with thin arms and legs that could almost break if pinched, wanted to arm-wrestle with these mature men, not to mention everyone in the car, but just wanted to win with the girl with a bruised arm. The wounded are unlikely!

Of course, everyone knew the "ghost" was joking, so no one took it seriously.

On the contrary, the originally tense and depressed atmosphere in the car was greatly relieved.

However, just when everyone wanted to see how Tan Wenyu would react, Tan Wenyu suddenly lost consciousness, and then the alarm system in the car instantly let out a piercing scream.

The expression of the "ghost" driving the car changed, there was an infected person!

"Ghost" was holding the steering wheel with one hand, and the other hand had reached to his waist to touch the handle of the gun. His deputy "Ghost" raised his hand, and a green light quickly gathered in the palm of his hand, as if it was about to turn into some kind of weapon.

The two "ghosts" patrolled quickly like hawks, looking for the location of the infected person. Tan Wenyu suddenly sat up from her seat, ignoring the meaning of the people next to her, and picked up the phone. The phone changed rapidly in the palm of her hand. In the blink of an eye, , it became Zhou Zhen’s mobile phone!

Tan Wenyu quickly swiped the screen and clicked on the "Album". The first photo in the "Album" was of Danfeng Square.

The square was densely packed with infected people of all kinds lying here and there.

She raised her phone and pointed the photo forward. The next moment, the scene outside the car changed drastically. It was originally a road heading out of the city. Suddenly, the surrounding scene was distorted and blurred. When it became clear again, it had become Danfeng Square. next to the road.

The driver of the "Ghost" braked, the tires shrieked shrilly, and it stopped at the edge of Danfeng Square.

At the same time, all electronic equipment in the car, including the alarm system, failed.

This is Danfeng District!

They came to Danfeng Square in Danfeng District inexplicably!

The "Ghost" driver hurriedly turned back and said to the people in the car: "This is a special car to escort survivors. The body is made of isolation materials."

"From now on, stay in the car and don't get out..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw that Tan Wenyu had strode to the car door located in the middle of the car body. With a slight push, the solid and heavy door flew out!

※※※

The mist is like layers of gauze, hanging straight from the sky to the earth, blocking the view.

Step, step, step...

A tall and burly figure walked slowly in the mist.

Wearing a white tunic suit and a golden ribbon that reflects the glimmer of stars in the night, it is Duan Lihe!

He came to a place and suddenly stopped.

The fog here is extremely thick, and the visibility is reduced to only about half a meter, making it difficult to see the surrounding environment at all.

Duan Lihe faced forward and blew hard.

Huh...huh...huh...

The next moment, this breath turned into a strong wind and fell from the sky, blowing away all the fog in the blink of an eye.

The surrounding scenes are displayed without reservation.

The huge metal face stood quietly under the night sky.

Its front is as flat and smooth as a knife, and its back is an ellipse like the back of a head, with dense metal wires connected to it, hanging down like long hair.

On the silk threads, metal cocoons hang, wrapped together and piled up like an upside-down mountain peak.

The metal thread continued to fall through the metal cocoon, and at the end were fifteen [Growth Stage] infected people. At this moment, holes were penetrated by the energy shock wave, and they were completely inactive. They could only maintain their standing posture by the pulling of the thread.

In the center surrounded by these [Growth Stage] infected people, stood a thin figure, wearing a light blue tunic suit, it was Zhou Zhen.

Zhou Zhen raised his head and looked at the [Leader] with dull eyes.

Less than half of his body was already wrapped in metal wires.

"Zhou Zhen!" Duan Lihe lowered his head and looked down at the earth. When he saw this scene, he immediately shouted.

Zhou Zhen didn't react at all and continued to stare at the [Leader] motionlessly, as if he couldn't hear his words at all.

Duan Lihe's face darkened, and eight metal rings of different colors immediately appeared above his head and smashed towards the cocoon mountain below the [Leader].

boom! ! !
