Volume 7: The Truth of the World Chapter 21: A First Look into the World of Fire
Zhengzhou City.
noon.
Shen Jin and his group were floating in the air, following far behind the tide of 8 million zombies.
They are watching and waiting for an opportunity.
Although Shen Jin brought 5,200 people from the No. 1 Homeland Zombie Killing Team and had sufficient equipment and supernatural food, they still did not have the ability to face the 8 million zombie tide. At least, even Hu Shou would find it difficult to withstand an attack of that level from the Zombie Tyrant.
"It would be best if we could separate the Zombie Tyrant from the zombies. That way, we can find a way to get rid of the Zombie Tyrant, and the remaining 8 million zombies will be leaderless and nothing more than a pile of loose sand!"
Having said that, how to separate the zombie tyrant from other zombies is a problem. For the time being, the crowd has no good solution and can only follow from a distance, observing and thinking of ways.
Fortunately, the Taoist priest's invisibility formation can conceal everyone's figures and block the detection of the Zombie Tyrant. In the tide of zombies, the Zombie Tyrant, with his black crystal skin, looks particularly noble, like an aristocrat among zombies.
Target locked.
Shen Jin was thinking about how to deal with the enemy. Before he set out, he actually considered spending a large sum of [World Coins] to open a large expansion module, but... Xiaobai had just been injured, and now his lucky halo had been turned off. If he just gambled on his own luck, Shen Jin felt that it was a bit risky, as a large industrial expansion module would cost a full 300,000 [World Coins]!
Although Shen Jin has earned a lot of [World Coins] these days, he only has a little over 1 million on him at most, and he can only draw 3 times at most before it is gone. So in order to get a high-quality module, Shen Jin has to endure it and wait until he returns from testing the Zombie Tyrant and Xiaobai recovers from his injuries, then take a good bath and draw again.
In the current situation, if we don’t come up with something new, our combat power will be a bit behind.
"What a pity... I thought that with the arrival of the gravity armor, this battle could be ended!"
Shen Jin admitted that he was a little optimistic.
"Where did this zombie tyrant come from?"
"Another world!"
Hu Shou and Sun Can answered in unison.
Hu Shou looked at Sun Can in surprise. Sun Can shrugged and said, "My summoned creature, the Earth Guardian, is not a creature from this world. I can feel the spiritual imprint from another world..."
Hu Shou was surprised and asked, "Can you communicate with creatures from another world?"
Shen Jin then remembered that Hu Shou seemed to have never seen Sun Can use that trick. "Yes! I felt like I forgot something before. Sun Can, since your ability can communicate with creatures from other worlds, then... can we enter another world through the gaps when you summon the Earth Guardians?"
Another world is a new term that has become popular recently because the way the zombie tyrant came is too bizarre. The zombies that came out of the space cracks do not belong to the earth. Various organizations in the world are trying to figure out where they were sent from. There are currently two mainstream speculations internationally:
One is that these zombie tyrants are actually intelligent creatures from a distant planet. They have mastered long-distance space transmission technology and come to the earth to plunder. They may also have "protons" that can lock the physical laws of the earth . The zombie virus was dropped by them. They want to directly destroy the human beings on the earth and thus control the planet. But when they see humans gradually fighting back, they become anxious and can only send more powerful zombie tyrants to push progress.
The second theory is the theory of the other world. In addition to the plane we live in, there are different planes. There are plane barriers, but the creatures in the other plane are very powerful and can break the barriers, launch zombie viruses and zombie tyrants, and thus exterminate human beings on Earth.
These two are the more mainstream views internationally, but among the wall-facers of the Dragnet, there is another speculation that all this was done by the ancient fifth-order extraordinary people... Their purpose is to promote the revival of spiritual energy, and the appearance of the zombie tyrant may also come from their summons.
To find out where the Zombie Tyrant comes from, just go through the space crack and take a look.
At this time, Sun Can's summoning skill provided a new perspective. What if... the zombie tyrant is in that other world?
Sun Can said with some embarrassment: "When I summon, the space crack opens for a moment. If I go... I may not be able to come back. Moreover, every time I summon, the location is not fixed. It feels like the coordinates of the other world are changing. I'm afraid that if I go in... I won't be able to get out!"
Hu Shou's face was serious. "I can give it a try. If you can open the space barrier, I might be able to... hold on for a while!"
"Okay, I'll try it!"
The Geocentric Guardian summoned by Sun Can has a time limit. It can fight for a maximum of one hour before being forced back. Moreover, the cooling time is not short, so it can only be summoned three times a day.
Therefore, he usually does not summon it, and only uses this skill when fighting.
At this time, the topic of summoning creatures from another world has attracted the attention of others. Zhu Dan held his Infinity Gauntlet in his hand and said, "If I use my power to make my wishes come true, maybe I can help you stabilize the space channel!"
The Taoist priest patted the formation flag on his backpack and said, "I have a space suppression formation here, it can help you a little!"
Sun Li walked over and said, "Why don't we let Quicksilver go? He's very fast, he can travel several kilometers in the blink of an eye!"
After putting all these things together, Shen Jin was surprised to find that they actually had so many ways to enter the other world.
Maybe if you try, it will work!
Since everyone was so enthusiastic, Shen Jin asked the team to stop. Anyway, the zombie tide was not moving fast and they could catch up in a few seconds if they flew. Everyone landed from the sky and kept a distance of 10 kilometers from the zombie tide. Everyone formed a circle and looked at Sun Can. The Taoist priest threw out the formation flag, and a strange force emerged from the surroundings. Everyone only felt that the space around them was more stable. Shen Jin took a look at his [Space Locator] and sure enough, it was garbled!
It has lost its positioning ability and cannot teleport. "My goodness, Taoist priest, your formation is a natural nemesis for space-based psychics!"
Hu Shou shook his head: "As far as I know, in the whole of China, the only person with the ability to teleport is your girlfriend!"
“Ah, this!”
In this case, the Taoist priest's formation... is indeed not very practical. It seems that it can only target Shang Qian and Home No. 1's [space locator] and [transporter].
But this is also a good method, equivalent to the fourth-level Hu Shou using part of the power of rules.
Shen Jin handed Hu Shou a white fruit engraved with a lightning symbol. It was the skill he copied from Super Team Quicksilver, Lightning Moment!
It can instantly burst out to several times the speed in a short period of time, comparable to a low-profile Flash.
Hu Shou originally wanted to use his Hidden Dragon Transformation to quickly explore the alien world and then come back, but if he didn't need super strength...
In terms of rapid burst speed, this fruit is more useful.
Hu Shou took it and nodded to Sun Can before taking it, indicating that he could start. The Taoist priest controlled his formation with all his strength. The space gem on Zhu Dan's infinite gloves sparkled. Both of them were ready. Shen Jin held a bundle of fruits of various colors in his hand, ready to transform and rescue at any time. He had multiple plans to rescue Hu Shou. Sun Can nodded: "I'm coming!"
"Summon, Geocentric Guardian!"
A circle of fiery red runes floated up from Sun Can's hands, and dense golden-red energy lines connected to the ground, "Boom!"
With a loud bang, an elliptical space channel opened up on the ground. A thick hand emerged from it, then grabbed the ground for support and jumped out. Hu Shou's eyes were like lightning, and his body moved instantly. He got in through the gap next to the body of the Earth Guard who had crawled out. The Taoist's formation flag emitted ripples and vibrated in the space. The space channel began to shrink, but the speed was much slower than before. "I want the space here to be still!"
As soon as Zhu Dan spoke, a ray of light from the space gem shone directly on the slowly shrinking space channel and stopped instantly!
But it only lasted for a moment before starting to shrink again, albeit a little slower than before. Judging from the situation, they could only hold out for 6 seconds at most before the passage would be closed again.
At this moment, everyone held their breath. They could do nothing but wait for Hu Shou's return.
5……
4……
3……
The space channel has shrunk to a certain extent. Shen Jin: "Commander Hu, come out quickly! If you are late, you won't be able to get out!"
There are still 3 seconds left before the channel will be completely closed, but!
Looking at the strange edge of the space channel, Shen Jin felt that he would not be able to bear it if he was squeezed by it. "Two seconds! Otherwise, I will be squeezed by the edge!"
2……
Shen Jin looked at the place below where there was no movement, and pinched out a fruit in his hand, the telekinesis fruit!
At that moment, a huge amount of telekinesis gushed out and went straight into the other world. Shen Jin closed his eyes and used telekinesis to search for Hu Shou's figure around him. At this time, the positioning of the quantum helmet had lost its function. Shen Jin could only use telekinesis to search, "Found it!"
Shen Jin's telekinesis caught a familiar figure moving rapidly, "Follow me!"
1……
"call!"
A gust of wind blew by, and Hu Shou appeared in front of everyone, 0...
The space channel was closed, Hu Shou slapped the burning flames on his body. Sun Can was a little confused and snapped his fingers. The flames on Hu Shou seemed to have grown legs, fell from his body, then gathered together and flew to Sun Can's fingertips to condense.
"Strange... this flame... feels so familiar!"
Shen Jin hurriedly asked Hu Shou, "Are you okay, Commander Hu? What took you so long? Did you run into any danger?"
According to their calculations, these few seconds were enough for Hu Shou to activate the "Lightning Moment". There was no need to make it so thrilling. In the end, he relied on Shen Jin's help to get out in time, otherwise he would be stuck in the space channel... I'm afraid even the fourth level couldn't stand it. Hu Shou breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the flames on his body disappear. "I did encounter trouble and was attacked inside, but fortunately, his strength was not as good as mine. I took this time to observe the inside. It's really a... strange world!"
"Oh? How do you mean?"
"It's a sea of fire inside, magma is falling from the sky, and the ground is burning with flames that never go out. The surface temperature can reach over 100 degrees. The energy inside is rich. I feel the energy factors wandering in the air... That feeling is so wonderful. Is this the spiritual energy era that ancient humans talked about? Even if those energy factors are too active and absorbed like flames entering the body along the meridians, but... if it's a fire-type mutant, it should be very comfortable. For example, Sun Can seems to have the ability to control the flames of these other worlds. Is it because of his supernatural powers?"
Sun Can was a little surprised. "I just feel that... these flames are very familiar, as if... as if... they are born with my supernatural power!"
Sun Can activated his supernatural power, and wisps of flames from the ground shot into everyone's palms. "Is this the feeling?"
Hu Shou confirmed it after a brief feeling, "That's it! Your auxiliary ability has the same power as the flame just now, but it is not aggressive towards us, as if it has been tamed!"
Shen Jin suddenly clapped his hands, "Oh oh oh! I get it! Sun Can, these buff abilities of yours... could they be powers drawn from another world? Otherwise, how could they cover so many people and last for such a long time? If it was your own abilities, you wouldn't be able to carry them at all!"
The fire buffs of thousands of people, with multiple skills, are unbearable even for Sun Can, a fourth-order transcendent. He only has that much energy, and he certainly can't reach this level on his own.
He is not a [Beacon], directly adding the power of rules buff. Sun Can scratched his head: "Maybe it's like this... It turns out that my abilities are all related to that other world!"
This was also the first time that he had an in-depth understanding of his own skills. Before, because he learned it from the system, he just thought it was a cheat from the system and did not think about it carefully. However, the power of the system must have a source and it would not come out of thin air. This world full of flames is the source of Sun Can's power!
Hu Shou took a deep look at Sun Can and felt that this person was somewhat mysterious. He couldn't help but associate him with the equally mysterious Shen Jin. Both of them... were not simple.
Shen Jin suddenly thought of something and asked Hu Shou: "Commander Hu, didn't you say you were ? What do you mean?"
Hu Shou touched the gravity breastplate on his body. "The world inside is not a safe world. It can be said that... it is full of dangers! In addition to the high temperature, it is also filled with a large amount of toxic gases. Without special protective gear, humans cannot survive in it. Moreover... there are also many fire creatures in it, and they are all aggressive!"
"These creatures... I have never seen them before, but they are definitely not zombies. There are huge spirits flying in the sky, which emit piercing screams. They have a great impact on me. I think they are also fourth-level creatures. They are hostile to me and have been attacking me with their minds. There are also a large number of jumping red cube creatures in the magma. By the way, they are similar to Sun Can's Geocentric Guardians. There are also many other creatures, and they are all very powerful..."
When Shen Jin heard this, his face suddenly froze, "Why does this place sound so much like... hell!"
"What the hell?"
"Oh, nothing, I just remembered a movie I watched before..."
After a discussion, none of them understood what was going on in this world. Only Shen Jin roughly understood...
The Taoist priest and Sun Can put away their special powers. This exploration achieved the results they expected , which was very good.
And with the blessing of their special abilities, they can repeat the actions just now and use a few seconds to explore the other world many times.
Shen Jin thought that he might be able to create a stable channel between the two worlds...
