Back in time not so long ago—

[Shaken, uneasy, panic. They're spreading, I can feel them. 】

【I can feel everything】

[The belief that belongs to me is losing. 】

In the huge space, the hill-like worm raised its head, and the computer screen hanging from its mouth typed out the last sentence word by word:

【Give me an explanation. 】

Surrounding it are blood vessels and electronic circuits that have been torn apart. The computer made of flesh and blood fell to the ground. Countless companions stood there dumbly, holding themselves tightly with a lot of arms, not daring to breathe.

This corner of the space is especially quiet. The smell of blood and rancidity spread in the air, and fragments of meat were scattered on the ground.

This piece of meat is from one of the companions. Not long ago, under the watchful eyes of everyone, the computer screen in front of it suddenly turned into a mouth full of blood, directly engulfing its head and swallowing it in one bite.

There is only a little crumbs splashed around. Very greedy, but no one dares to pick it up.

Countless glances secretly glanced at the corner full of **** smell. If I remember correctly, the office area is mainly responsible for the energy body and consciousness body in the domain...

【explain. 】

The same word appears again, enlarged and bolded. At the same time, there was a sudden buzzing sound, like a steel knife scraping a bone, piercing a person's head with bursting pain.

Several accompanying creatures in that office area exchanged glances with each other, and two seconds later, Fang, the leader of the project team, spoke with difficulty:

"Report, report. This accident should have happened in...uh, the sub-city district..."

While hurriedly scanning the screen in front of him, he struggled to organize his words, and he had no time to care about the special machine for the marginal area placed in the corner:

"Someone in the sub-city is massacring energy bodies and... destroying the church?"

A few dots of light that dimmed on the screen caught his attention. These are the places where some of the churches and sacrifices in the sub-city are located.

The project leader only felt a flash of inspiration in the flesh and blood, and suddenly there was an explanation for everything: "Yes, someone is destroying the church, so it will affect the residents' beliefs. And that person..."

He quickly thought about who could blame him, and then quickly pointed in the direction of the game planning team: "Yes, it's the one they put in by mistake before!"

"..."

The companions of the planning team caught off guard and took a big pot, and were collectively stunned.

"No, how do you know it's her?" Seeing that the situation was not good, the leader of the planning team immediately said, "You can't see the face through the screen...Are you sure you didn't admit your mistake?"

Managed Team Leader: "..." Frankly speaking, I'm not sure. But at this time, it is right to try hard.

"Yes, it's her." He gritted his teeth and confirmed.

Sure enough, this statement successfully diverted the worm's anger - after all, it had been furious about this not long ago.

In the next second, two more computers from the planning team opened their mouths and swallowed the two accompanying creatures.

The sound of chewing and chewing sounded in the empty darkness. After swallowing, the worm finally felt better. It twisted its huge body and connected to all the flesh and blood computers again. Before falling asleep again, he only gave one sentence coldly:

[Clear her. 】

[Before I wake up next time. 】

the other side.

In the fringe area where no one cares, more and more people are wearing red electronic pens. Even they no longer wear electronic masks to cover them up. They just walked on the street openly like that, and when they saw the signs worn by each other, they took the initiative to stop and gave a sentence of "Thanks to the Almighty God".

Even near the church of Chuangshen Church, no one would think of avoiding suspicion - anyway, there is only one bishop and two senior disciples here to take care of it. And just a few days ago, these three people died suddenly, and the door of the church was closed, and there was no one to manage it.

This adds to the prestige of the omniscient God. It also fueled some people's ambitions.

In a large single-family house decorated with electronic candles and simulated aromatherapy, the well-dressed Jason is humbly bowing his head:

"O great all-knowing God. Your humble servant will obey all instructions."

【Your loyalty will be rewarded. 】

Behind the curtain, the red pen moves gracefully on the tablet. The handwriting was presented in front of Jason through the holographic screen: [Now, you should make preparations first. 】

Jason: ...

I don't know if it's his illusion, but he always feels that the words used by the omniscient God seem to be less particular than before.

But he quickly reprimanded himself for the offensive thought. How could he secretly speculate about the great omniscient God?

Jason pressed his head lower, and stepped backwards to leave the exquisite and spacious house.

Outside the door, disciples armed with weapons were already waiting. Jason looked at them, raising his head high.

"The Almighty God has sent his will. Tonight, the great jihad is about to begin."

"This is the grace of the omniscient God. Just tonight, let us dedicate ourselves, capture the church, and go to a better world-"

"The essence of this world is indeed sick."

Soon after, the sub-urban area.

Xu Tuoran walked all the way along the dark alley, and Lao Wang's forbearing voice came from behind him.

Not long before he spoke, they had just passed by a garbage dump. An untied garbage bag untied and rolled out the dead body of a cat.

The body was shriveled and looked like it had been dead for a long time. The eclipse moon who often walks through this kind of place is not surprised by this. He told others that because of the idea of ​​"sacrificing flesh and blood" in Creation God, many residents would reject the existence of non-mechanical bodies. Human beings of flesh and blood will be discriminated against, and some animals will also be implicated.

The animals in this world are basically consciousnesses extracted by the domain master. Because of his talent, Shiyue can remind stray dogs to avoid them, but he can't help other animals much.

"Some residents even deliberately kill stray animals after adopting them, and extract their consciousness to make bionic pets." Shiyue said, "They think this is the real kindness and love."

Lao Wang took off his coat, wrapped up the shriveled cat's body, put it on a relatively flat place, and followed the others for a while, but finally couldn't hold back from cursing, "This world is sick."

Xu Tueran half turned his head to look at him, shrugged his shoulders: "On the bright side, this sick world has been driven crazy by us."

She has a reason for saying this. In just a few days, the night scene of the city is already very different from when she first saw it. The rune light projections floating in the air have become much dimmer, and the missionary broadcasts that can be heard from far away no longer exist. Near the Chuangshen statue, there are fewer people watching and worshiping, and even the neon lights that light up after nightfall are much less.

This is a good thing for Xu Tuoran and the others. The quieter the night, the better for them.

While talking, a few people walked along the alley and quietly reached the destination - the back door of another hospital.

There is surveillance at the door. Xu Tuoran didn't even look at it, he just waved his hand and completely froze it. Jiaojiao's father walked over quickly, and used a small homemade machine to climb on the door lock twice, and the electronic door opened in response.

Shiyue went in first, turned his head to listen around for a while, and then sniffed the smell in the air. Fang gestured to the others, and they all sneaked into the hospital one file at a time.

Although Lao Wang had already given the prophecy that "a catastrophe will occur within forty-eight hours", Xu Tuoran was also reminded of the increase in the death value. But none of them could tell exactly what would happen, so after deliberation, they decided to follow the original plan.

—As planned before, they plan to use tonight to try to take down some church facilities. And the hospital, because it has a special sacrifice place, is also within the range of sniping.

"There will be special security guards in the hospital, and robots in charge of night shifts. Just take care of these." Jiaojiao's father skillfully took out several hand-held cannons, and fired one each. Besides, Xu Tuoran and Lao Wang also carried a gun on his back.

"There should be only two sets of power supply equipment in the whole building, and they need to be cut off first. Then we can enter the basement floor."

According to their previous experience, the underground space is the place where the believers of the domain master perform sacrificial rituals and "surgeries". They need to focus on busting there.

"That's the same as what was agreed before. Divide into two groups. One group can deal with a set of power supply equipment. If you encounter energy bodies in the middle, kill them all. Remember to take back the ID card." Xu Tuoran said, hanging the handheld cannon on the Waist, "I'm on the same team as Lao Wang."

Among the four, she and Eclipse are more output-oriented. Moreover, Jiaojiao's father and Shiyue have cooperated before, and they have a tacit understanding.

"Okay." Jiaojiao's father nodded, then opened the mechanical box hanging on his body, took out four communicators, and distributed them to others, "Here, it was improved this afternoon. Also, remember each other's secret language, and talk to each other first when you meet. "

Xu Tuoran and the others nodded seriously.

Secret words are the codes they use to confirm each other's identities. In previous operations, they found that there are often some mysterious forces protecting the vicinity of the ritual circle, which may cause confusion or hallucinations for intruders. Therefore, agreeing on a secret language first will help to identify the identity at that time.

For example, Jiaojiao's father's secret language is "Yaqin is a fairy" - it is said that Yaqin is his wife. The secret language of the eclipse is "don't dream of the moon".

Xu Turan and Lao Wang's secret language is relatively strange. They are "I wish you peace" and "The domain owner is sick".

"Speaking of which, isn't it time to eclipse the moon and dream about the moon?" Old Wang followed Xu Turan upstairs and suddenly said, "I remember him saying that he would be very manic when he dreamed of the moon?"

"Yeah. But this time may not be accurate." Xu Tuoran whispered, "When I first met him, he felt that it was coming soon, but it never came... What do you ask this for?"

"It's nothing, I just suddenly had an idea." With the help of the neon lights thrown out of the window, Pharaoh walked forward steadily, "You said that the catastrophe I sensed was the dream of the moon when I was eclipsing the moon?"

Not too possible.

Xu Turan thought blankly that the moon in the dream of eclipsing the moon can't dream of 5,000 death points.

"No matter what, try to be fully prepared." She said softly, "You can think about everything from the worst angle, for example, what if the domain owner comes here in person?"

Lao Wang stopped and turned to look at her thoughtfully: "Do you know something?"

"...I don't dare to say I know. I'm just guessing." Xu Tuoran didn't deny it, but went on.

After all, the other party is a high-ranking long night, and lying is risky. Xu Tuoran still remembers that when he met him for the first time, he asked him in private how old he was and whether he had graduated from high school. Made myself almost tense.

"It's a fool to really treat you as an old man. Body language and behavior can't lie." That's what the other party said at the time, "I guess Jiaojiao's father should have noticed it too. It's just that he didn't say it."

This made Xu Tuoran very frustrated.

Speaking of which, how did you reply to Old Wang at that time? It seems that I still didn't tell the truth, and I added two years...

Xu Turan thought to himself, and turned into a room on the third floor familiarly.

According to experience, the backup power supply equipment is set here.

Lao Wang had already gone in first and was groping on the wall. Xu Tuoran closed the door behind him smoothly, and was about to walk towards him when he stopped suddenly.

—In my mind, the premonition of crisis suddenly beeped, and the frequency was fast and the sound was sharp, far better than when confronting the energy body before.

Almost at the same time, she heard a strange voice coming from the depths of the corridor.

…what?

On the other side, Eclipse Moon, who was far away on the first floor, also pricked up his ears.

Jiaojiao's father, who was busy dealing with the power supply device, glanced at him alertly: "What's wrong?"

"I heard some voices." Shiyue said, "It came from the corridor."

"Sound, is it the security guard?" Jiaojiao's father asked strangely, "No, shouldn't it go to the second floor? We saw it just now."

"...No, not the security guard." Shiyue wrinkled his nose, "The voice is different. This voice is swish, swish..."

It was like something with many thin legs, crawling very fast.

"..." Jiaojiao's father couldn't help but slow down. He looked at the moon, then at the closed door, slowly stretched out his hand, and pressed the hand gun on his waist:

"Are you sure? But those robots are not..."

Before he could finish speaking, he heard a bang at the door.

Jiaojiao's father jumped in fright, took a step back instinctively, and looked towards the door in horror. In the next second, there were several "bang bang" sounds, as if someone was banging on the door vigorously.

…and not just one.

The sound of knocking on the door was continuous, and the sound of the position was different every time it came. It was as if a large group of people of different heights were standing outside the door, and each of them used their greatest strength to smash the door one after another—

Even the door panel could not help shaking, and there were strange dents on the surface.

"..."

Now, it was obvious that something was wrong.

Shiyue and Jiaojiao's father looked at each other with the same fear in their eyes.

"What's the situation!" Jiaojiao's father couldn't help shouting, and pulled out the handheld cannon directly on his body, "The door to the basement should not be opened yet, right?"

In the past experience, even if there will be strange phenomena, at least wait for them to enter the underground space. How can there be hauntings before the circuit is cut?

Can you talk about science? ?

"That thing outside seems to be very troublesome." Shiyue lowered her body slightly, rolled her ears back, grinned instinctively, let out a low growl, and at the same time said vaguely, "It is the same as before. Yes, it's different..."

"Nonsense, no one can see this." Jiaojiao's father forced his mind to dodge to the wall, and a cannonball directly collapsed the power supply device on the opposite side, making a loud bang.

This sound obviously irritated the thing that was knocking on the door outside. The sound of knocking on the door became more urgent, and there was also the sound of nails scratching the door panel, which made people's scalp numb.

Jiaojiao's father leaned against the wall, holding his head to protect his face, and when the explosion passed, Fang raised his head and raised the hand-held cannon again.

"Get out of the way." He said to Shiyue, "I just opened the maximum gear and slammed the door—"

Sufficient firepower added a lot of confidence to him. However, Shiyue turned her head when she heard the sound, and after seeing clearly behind Jiaojiao's father, her eyes widened in astonishment.

—I saw a hand lying on his stomach behind him.

A complete hand, including half of the forearm. No one knew when it appeared there, it was like a gecko, quietly lying on the wall behind Jiaojiao's father.

"Be careful!" Shiyue hurriedly yelled and rushed over. Almost at the same time, that hand suddenly spread its five fingers, clamping Jiaojiao's father's throat.

Jiaojiao's father widened his eyes in astonishment, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to pull. But he saw more severed hands falling from the ceiling and pounced on him one after another.

"Damn!" Jiaojiao's father scolded with difficulty, and Shiyue had already jumped on him, and began to frantically help to pull it up. It was only halfway through when I suddenly heard a clicking sound behind me—

He froze, turned his head in astonishment, and saw a severed hand lying on the doorknob at some point.

The doorknob was turned, and the door slowly opened inward.

A slender hand pressed against the door panel, followed by a slender figure slowly swaying in.

It was a thing with a human face.

Below the neck is not the body, but densely packed and entangled human hands.

The fingers of those hands were still wriggling on their own, reminiscent of stacked worms.

A strong sense of crisis hit Shiyue's heart, he turned around abruptly to protect Jiaojiao's father behind him, and bared his teeth threateningly.

At this moment, several "da da da" sounds were heard, countless flames burst out from the monster's body, and the whole body was beaten like a sieve, shaking uncontrollably, and fell to the ground with a thud.

"I knew that something happened to you here too." Xu Furan, who was carrying a machine gun, pushed the door in vainly, turned his head and caught a glimpse of Jiaojiao's father who was still submerged in a large number of severed hands, and hurriedly said, "I declare that all the non-human beings here As long as human beings exist, they must not touch human skin!"

After the voice fell, the densely packed broken hands seemed to have received some instructions, and they fled in all directions with a huff. Jiaojiao's father blushed and sat down on the ground, struggling to catch his breath, and it took him a while to find his voice:

"I'm going to these shameless people, they actually pulled my hair!"

"...Tie it up quickly." Xu Tuoran seemed a little speechless, quickly glanced around, frowned, "Isn't Lao Wang here?"

"No." Shiyue said nervously, "You two got separated?"

"...Well. I was attacked just now and got lost." Xu Tuoran clicked his tongue, "I thought he would come to you."

"Then what should we do now?" Jiaojiao's father coughed, looking at the multi-handed monster lying on the ground, "I've never seen these things before. They seem to be more difficult to deal with."

"It's more difficult to deal with, not impossible." Xu Tuoran said in a relaxed tone, and kicked the monster on the ground, "Just follow the original plan."

"The original plan? That means..." Shiyue was halfway speaking, but was suddenly stopped by Jiaojiao's father.

"That, Auntie?" Jiaojiao's father cleared his throat, "Although I was rescued by you just now...but just to be on the safe side, shouldn't we talk about that first?"

Xu Tuoran who was in a hurry to leave: "?"

"Secret language." Jiaojiao's father pointed out, his expression became more alert.

Xu Tuoran turned his head in disbelief, stared at the two of them for a moment, showing an impatient expression.

"Yaqin is a fairy, don't dream of the moon, I wish you peace." She pointed at the three people including herself, and quickly revealed the answer, "Okay, can we go now?"

"..."

The other two looked at each other. Jiaojiao's father touched his red neck, and asked, "Has the power supply facility over there been cut off? If it's cut off, go to the basement floor."

"Power supply facilities?"

Xu Tuoran led the two of them out, while showing a thoughtful expression: "To be honest, I'm not sure about this. At that time, Old Wang was alone in the room, and I was guarding outside. Then something happened..."

"That means, we have to go upstairs to confirm?" Jiaojiao's father frowned.

"Well, yes, go upstairs." Xu Tuoran thought for a while, then nodded, "Also, I have something else I want you to see..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard the sound of footsteps coming from the other end of the corridor.

Lao Wang, who was holding a cannon and carrying a machine gun, ran close out of breath, and stopped slowly after seeing the situation in front of him clearly.

"The domain owner is sick." He quickly said a secret word to prove his identity, and then looked at the crowd, "You should also prove yourself first."

Shiyue quickly reported the secret language for herself and the other two, and then asked about Lao Wang's condition.

"I'm fine, I just lost my way just now. The current situation of this building is very wrong. There are four and five extra floors inexplicably, and there are more corridors and short-distance ghosts hitting walls on each floor. I suspect that things have exceeded our expectations... "

He was halfway through speaking, and suddenly looked at Xu Tuoran, his expression became strange: "What are you angry about?"

"Ah?" Xu Tuoran was puzzled, "What are you talking about, I'm not angry."

"...No, you have." Old Wang looked at her carefully, his brows gradually wrinkled, "From the moment we met, your mood swings were very strong. You were not only angry, but even a little..."

Fear.

Lao Wang's expression gradually changed.

Fear—before this, he had never read this kind of emotion in Xu Tuoran.

What is she afraid of. After they met, what happened to trigger her emotions? They just told each other secret words...

Lao Wang's thoughts turned quickly, his eyes swept over the three people in front of him, and the conversation suddenly changed.

"Auntie." He whispered, "How old are you today?"

"Seventy-two, what's the matter?" Xu Tuoran was puzzled.

"I'm talking about the real age." Lao Wang emphasized.

"..." Xu Tuoran fell into silence.

"Or, in the last operation. You used another age to fool me." Old Wang continued, "What did you say at that time?"

Xu Tuoran: "..."

In the silent corridor, a strange atmosphere began to spread.

As if realizing something, Shiyue and Jiaojiao's father cautiously retreated to the side, keeping a distance from her.

After a while, Fang heard "Xu Tuoran" let out a rather discouraged "ah":

"Hui-level ability users, it's really not easy to fool."

After finishing the words, there was only a "squeak", and two hands suddenly stretched out from her mouth, one left and one right, and suddenly tore at both sides. "Xu Tuoran" the whole skin was torn from the middle, revealing the densely packed fingers inside—

"If I knew it, I would have killed you first." The monster with arms all over his body smiled softly, stretched his body, and his head almost touched the ceiling of the corridor, "It is both a bright class and a long night. There is no one more annoying than you .”

The strange swishing sound sounded in the corridor again. Shiyue moved her ears vigilantly, turned her head to look back, and her breathing stopped suddenly.

Behind them, another monster that had been beaten into a sieve just now was slowly coming out of the room, and the wounds on its body gradually healed as it moved. There are countless severed hands crawling beside him, like pets hugging each other.

— Companions.

The same answer appeared in the minds of the three.

Companions that cannot be killed.

In this way, it makes sense why the opponent finds Hui-level Chang Ye difficult to deal with - the domain master of this domain is Chen-level, and its companion creature can only reach Hui. And there is a high probability that it will also be eternal day.

"I'm going to die now." Jiaojiao's father muttered, and raised his hand cannon again, "There are more than one Hui-level companions... How do we fight this?"

"Then just don't hit it." The tall monster sneered and made a vague and weird voice, "Just wait for death—"

"Damn you, sir." Another voice came from the corridor on the other side, and at the same time, there was a cold air rushing toward the face——

"Stay away!"

Recognizing Xu Tuoran's voice, Shiyue turned around without thinking, grabbed the two people beside her, and rushed forward. Almost at the same time, the sound of ice freezing sounded in the corridor, and the thick ice surface grew rapidly, but in an instant, it covered the entire corridor!

"..." Lao Wang raised his head cautiously, only to see that the monster that was close at hand had been frozen into a huge ice sculpture.

Looking back, not far away is another small ice sculpture of the same monster. In addition, there are large pieces of severed hands, frozen in the ice.

He blinked slowly, and followed his gaze. With his good night vision ability, he clearly saw another Xu Tuoran walking out of the corridor on the other side with a hand gun.

There is a hall between the corridors on both sides. In other words, in just a short moment, Xu Tuoran's ice covered half of the hall and almost the entire corridor.

And it's still pretty solid...

Is the torch-level natural disaster already so strong?

Lao Wang looked up at the monster above him, swallowed, pushed the Eclipse Moon on his body, and wanted to stand up. But soon realized something was wrong.

Eclipse Moon was motionless.

As he pushed, something rolled off Eclipse Moon. He picked it up and looked at it, only to find that it was a severed hand that had been frozen into a lump of ice.

The ice cube was broken in the middle, and it looked like it had been smashed somewhere.

"What's wrong?" Xu Tuoran noticed something was wrong and walked over quickly.

"He seems to have been knocked unconscious." Lao Wang and Jiaojiao's father hurriedly helped him up. Shiyue let out a low hum, and seemed not sober.

"Hey, it's all swollen." Jiaojiao's father touched the back of his head and hissed, "Find a safe place, I'll show him first."

Everyone nodded and walked forward with the help of Shiyue. Xu Tuoran followed beside him, and when he passed by the giant ice sculpture of a monster, he couldn't help but look at it a few more times, feeling somewhat surprised in his heart.

...Fortunately, I went to the natural disaster cemetery first during the day, and I also upgraded a level by the way.

she thought happily. Otherwise, with such a big one and so many crawlers, she is not sure that she can freeze them all.

No. 7 ice-hui level. It is not only the freezing speed that has been improved, but also the overall power of the skills.

Xu Tuoran looked away, and quickly communicated with the other two about the situation—not long ago, when she and Lao Wang were on the third floor, she heard strange noises outside. I tried to go out to have a look, but I only went a few steps away, and when I looked back, the original room was gone.

She and Lao Wang were separated because of this, and the communicator could not be used. Thinking of finding someone else first, he went downstairs. In the middle, I went to the fourth floor for no reason. After a lot of difficulty, I finally found the right way down...

Having said that, isn't there only three floors in this building? Where did the fourth floor come from?

This question came to Xu Turan's mind again, but was soon suppressed. Clearly they have bigger concerns now.

The changing internal structure of the hospital, and the sudden appearance of companions.

"And they have so many severed hands, crawling everywhere, like cockroaches. It's hard to deal with it with the current weapons." Jiaojiao's father said while supporting the person to move quickly, "We have to try to assemble a more suitable one. "

"Currently the only one who can deal an effective blow to them is my aunt." Lao Wang looked serious, "I just don't know how long your ice seal can hold them..."

While talking, several people had already turned the corridor. Xu Tueran caught a shattering sound with the tip of his ear, probed back to take a look, and then quickly retracted his head.

"It doesn't seem to be long." She said helplessly, "The super big one has already started to move..." No wonder. After all, they are also Hui-level.

As soon as the words fell, everyone's footsteps paused again.

Not far in front of them, there was another monster with a human head stacked on its arms, walking slowly with a cold face.

This one looks a little smaller than the one just now, and it's a medium somersault. Scores of severed hands followed closely around him, crawling all over the wall.

On the other side, the sound of ice cracking from the space behind became clearer.

"I'm going to die. I'm going to be blocked at both ends." Jiaojiao's father's face changed slightly, and Pharaoh looked at the floor next to him, and his expression also became ugly.

"When did we get to the eighth floor..." he said in disbelief. Xu Turan pursed his lips and kicked open the door next to him.

"Don't worry about it, go in, don't come out." Xu Tuoran said, pushing them all in without any explanation, then looked at the monster in front of him, and let out a deep breath.

"After the upgrade, there is an 80% probability... This will never be wrong again."

Thinking to herself, she stepped on the severed hand that was crawling in front of her.

Immediately raised a hand, his expression slightly restrained.

In the next moment, black crystals appeared out of thin air, quickly extending and climbing along the walls and floors, like a hungry black giant, with the aura of wanting to devour everything, heading straight for the monster in front of it, and the severed hand like a tide pounce.
