Embers Ad Infinitum

Chapter 501: Freeze

Views:

In the roar of the explosion, the passers-by who were fleeing in all directions became more and more frightened and ran even harder.

Many of them panicked and fell to the ground, while in the houses on both sides of the street, the residents either hid in a place they thought was safe and shivered, or they took up guns with great virtuousness, trying to stop the chaos outside, or curious Deliberately poking his head behind the glass window, trying to figure out what happened, or calling the "Hand of Order" police through the phone installed in the home.

—This is a street in the Red Giant Wolf District near the Golden Apple District. Many residents are very wealthy, so installing a telephone is not a big problem.

And Shang Jianyao, while posing as he ran towards the group of attackers, opened his mouth again and shouted loudly:

"Little Chong..."

He was only halfway through shouting when suddenly a stream of air flowed into his mouth and went straight to his throat.

"Cough!" "Cough!"

Shang Jianyao was choked and coughed violently. Not only did the shouting stop abruptly, but he could no longer maintain the "ring of blindness".

In the case of physiological problems, it is useless to change which business to meet!

Just when Shang Jianyao almost became the first human to be choked to death by the wind, Long Yuehong, who had not jumped too far with Bai Chen just now, wanted to straighten up and help his companions suppress the attackers in the distance, but suddenly felt himself skin becomes extremely sensitive.

The surrounding air seemed to turn into small hands, "scratching" from different angles on those parts of his body that were not covered by the military exoskeleton device.

Normally, the influence of this level may be closer to the state of "blow the face is not cold willow wind", and will not cause Long Yuehong to have any overreaction, but at this moment, Long Yuehong's skin is strangely sensitive.

He suddenly had the illusion of being tickled by countless people, his body twisted to and fro, his expression crying and laughing.

This is simply torture.

Long Yuehong is no longer able to operate the military exoskeleton device.

Bai Chen noticed Long Yuehong's abnormality, but he didn't understand what happened to him.

For a while, many thoughts flashed in her mind, hoping to help Long Yuehong get rid of the current predicament.

Eventually, she decided to try pain stimulation.

This in itself can wake people up from sleep and hallucinations, but Bai Chen doesn't know if it's right now.

On the other side, Jiang Baimian also heard Shang Jianyao's coughing, and out of the corner of his eyes, he saw Long Yuehong's writhing like crying and laughing.

"The Awakened at the level of the 'Spiritual Corridor' played with interfering substances...

"It can't go on like this anymore, even if he doesn't have any other way, it's just now that we can't escape... Not to mention, under the influence of 'forced sleep' again and again, we may not be able to do it every time. Wake up in time, just a few seconds slower, and you will be the target of distant attackers, and we are not mechanical monks, and we can't use our bodies to carry bullets, grenades, and rockets...

"Damn, there are bioelectric signals all around, and there is no way to tell where he is. Shang Jianyao's human consciousness must be the same... This is not like dealing with those attackers in the distance, which can be calculated through ballistic calculation, super vision and military use. Exoskeleton device assists to lock...

"We couldn't find the Awakener at the level of the 'Spiritual Corridor'. We had no choice but to fight back. We could only watch ourselves step by step into a desperate situation..." During this short period of time, Jiang Baimian was full of thoughts.

She can only give the order she is least willing to give:

"Spread out as a squad!"

In this way, at least it won't be taken away in one pot.

The lesser of two evils!

On the third floor of an apartment building that is less than 100 meters away from the "Old Tune Group" in a straight line, in a room in the area where the "Old Tune Group" is located, a man is standing at the window with one hand in his pocket, looking out With Jiang Baimian and others.

He has half-length blond-brown hair, blue eyes, a straight nose bridge, and heroic eyebrows, all of which show that he once had a remarkable beauty.

But now, he is middle-aged and fat, his face is jutting out, and there is a sloppy beard around his mouth.

"As expected of a team that was able to steal the pass code from the supervision of the 'First City', it forced me to enter the dangerous range of 100 meters..." This man was wearing a black formal suit like the old world, and the first button was loosened inside. white shirt.

Praise for praise, this man named Kaa is already preparing for the aftermath of the evacuation.

In his opinion, no matter whether the strange child named Xiaochong that the other party is looking for can appear in time and provide help, he cannot stop him from completing the lore.

Inside the room behind him, there was a person lying on the couch, falling into a deep sleep.

At this moment, a rather annoyed voice suddenly sounded in Kao's mind:

"Don't make trouble!"

This voice was a little childish, echoing in Kaa's spiritual world.

Kaa stiffened, as if he had become a stone statue, neither smiling nor speaking.

He stared out the window blankly, in an eerily quiet state.

At the place where the sapphire blue jeep overturned, Shang Jianyao's coughing stopped, and Long Yuehong also got rid of the state of being scratched.

Jiang Baimian, Giuseppe and Bai Chen saw surprising changes around them.

The passers-by who were fleeing in all directions stopped in a stance of sudden braking. Some were still able to stand firm, but just stood there blankly.

The people who stumbled to the ground because they were panicking were even more silent.

The residents in the houses on both sides of the street, who were hiding in the safe place, even shivered and forcibly controlled them. They picked up gun statues one by one and distributed them on the road leading to their gates. They spied on the outside from behind the windows. He closed his eyes, let his face stick to the glass, squeezed it out, and answered the call of "Hand of Order", or held the receiver and forgot to put it down, or did not say a word, and let the other side ask "Hello" .

The same was true for the attackers in the distance, who were either kneeling, standing or prostrate, and their eyes lost focus.

At this moment, it was as if someone pressed the pause button, which stopped the flow of time within a certain range.

And if it wasn't for those people who had fixed their eyes without being vicious, their eyes were not cloudy, and they didn't show obvious animal nature, Long Yuehong must have thought that this block had suffered a big outbreak of "intentional disease", except for herself and others, all of them changed instantly Become a "mindless".

This is the horror scene that only appeared when the old world was destroyed.

When Jiang Baimian and others looked around, Shang Jianyao made a surprised voice:

"Little Chong!"

This... Long Yuehong was a little scared by Xiaochong's strength.

Jiang Baimian moved in his heart and shouted:

"Go to Xiaochong first!"

Forget about the weird changes in this area.

Taking advantage of the lack of interference, Shang Jianyao took Giuseppe, Long Yuehong took Bai Chen, and Jiang Baimian followed, and rushed into the apartment where Xiaochong was in a frantic sprint.

They didn't slow down, jumped or ran to the fifth floor, pushed open the false door, and entered the apartment that Xiaochong rented.

Xiao Chong, who was wearing yellow clothes, was putting the game console and laptop in the red school bag, and shouted with a displeased expression:

"Those bastards, exposed here, can't stay here!"

This "King of the Unintentional" behaves like a child who went to a dark Internet cafe to play games before the destruction of the old world, and heard that the parents found him.

"Okay, let's transfer quickly!" Shang Jianyao's friend was very affectionate and agreed.

Taking advantage of Shang Jian Yao and Long Yuehong helping Xiao Chong to clean up, Jiang Baimian thought about it and said, considering his language:

"Would you like to go and catch that bad guy? Otherwise, he will follow us in the future, which may reveal your location again."

Xiaochong thought for a while and said:

"it is good!

"I want him to work for me to make money!"

"..." Long Yuehong and others were speechless for a while, Shang Jianyao and Xiaochong packed their luggage.

So, Shang Jianyao picked up "Garibaldi" Giuseppe again, and let Xiaochong sit on his shoulder.

Xiaochong suddenly felt a little happy and excited.

"Let's go!" He waved the hand he didn't use to fix his body.

Several members of the "Old Tune Group" did not delay, and even stopped taking the stairs.

Long Yuehong took Bai Chen, helped Jiang Baimian, and jumped down from the window. With the help of the protruding part of the building, he landed on the street with only two jumps, easily.

when!

Shang Jianyao followed and stood firm.

Suddenly, Xiaochong's face changed, and he jumped off Shang Jianyao's shoulder and went straight to an alley on the side.

"It's too late, I'll take a step first, you go catch that bad guy yourself, the influence on him will linger for a while..." While the child was running, there was an afterimage, which made Long Yuehong think he was hallucinating.

After only being stunned for a second or two, several members of the "Old Tune Group" lost trace of Xiaochong, and only the words he left echoed in their ears.

"Mr. Du Heng arrived nearby?" Jiang Baimian made the most reasonable guess.
