Huang Jin was still in a daze until he returned to the abandoned building.
He rushed all the way to the ward where Hao Wen Ce and Group 7 were staying. Just as he was about to knock on the door, he was nearly frightened to the point of having a heart attack when the door suddenly opened.
There was a frightening dark hue in Hao Wen Ce's eyes, and the tablet in his hand emitted a faint glow.
"Abnormal data has been reported. There is a gap vibration nearby, and the reading of evil power is rising sharply." He muttered tiredly, "The coordinates are near the abandoned clinic building. You guys take precautions. Fu Xingchuan will be there soon..."
The neatly dressed Group 7 and Xiao Wu were standing behind him. Xiao Zhao, the commander at the back of Group 7, gave a thumbs up to indicate that they were ready.
After he finished speaking, he noticed Huang Jin standing at the door in a daze.
"What's the matter?" Hao Wen Ce asked perfunctorily.
In Huang Jin's eyes, Hao Wen Ce's body was covered with large and small "I'm so annoyed and don't want to go to public places" slogans, and the impatient emotion was almost covered in his face.
"I know what happened." Huang Jin spoke at the fastest speed in his life, "The attacker came again. He attacked Group 9 and dragged Yin Ren into the gap."
"I want to go in. Give me three hours. After three hours, you can do whatever you want."
Preventive closure measures, commonly known as "filling amber", refer to the practice of solidifying the relevant space in advance when facing an unsolvable diffuse disaster.
Fu Xingchuan snapped his fingers, and a fire dragon descended from the sky and wrapped around him.
Hao Wen Ce: “Haha.”
The rice in Huang Jin's hand murmured, and it struggled to slip out of his sweaty palm and bounced towards Ge Tingting in the night. Huang Jin still stood there, with beads of sweat on his forehead.
Hao Wen Ce ran at the standard speed of a slightly plump middle-aged man: "What are you guys from Group 9 doing in the abandoned building in the middle of the night?"
As he spoke, he dialed a number: "Hello? Get ready for the department—"
"If I were still the minister, I would probably agree with your judgment. But now... I have to do something stupid to justify my job."
Hao Wen Ce's phone was taken away by Fu Xingchuan and he hung up immediately.
But the moment he returned to the abandoned building, Huang Jin felt that Hao Wen Ce's words were still too implicit.
"Are there only so many people?" He frowned.
Fu Xingchuan smiled and shook his head, turning to the dilapidated abandoned building. At this moment, a thin figure pushed through the crowd and followed closely.
Hao Wen-ce: "Just looking at the data, the space near the abandoned building is about to burst. Your friend is drilling very hard."
In just two sentences, the two people from Group 7 and the delivery man Xiao Wu had disappeared without a trace, leaving only Hao Wen Ce and Huang Jin in the corridor.
Fu Xingchuan patted her shoulder and did not refuse.
Fu Xingchuan stretched out a hand, and the fiery red magic light instantly ignited the night. Countless fire dragons rose from the sky, circling around the broken old buildings, gradually gathering the loose fragments of space together.
"So we are enough." Fu Xingchuan said, "If something unexpected happens, we can't just rely on the number of people to make up for it."
Hao Wen Ce glanced at Dr. Cat and said, "Indeed. This is a hospital, and there are many patients. We need to put the safety of the people first. The spatial anomaly data here has exceeded the standard. If a large gap reappears, it may affect the civilians in the entire area."
Fu Xingchuan smiled and said, "Are you trying to stop me?"
Huang Jin's face froze.
"He... he witnessed Zhong Cheng being dragged into the gap and taken away, and tried to drill into the gap to find someone. We were afraid that he would be too sad, so we accompanied him to do some research." Huang Jin squeezed out his remaining emotional intelligence and tried hard to make up nonsense.
The building was clearly in front of them, but it looked like a scene in a broken mirror, shattered and deformed beyond belief, like a game model with a serious error in the texture. Those "space fragments" were still moving, and their movement trajectory was quite ominous, as if they would break apart in the next second.
If there are people in the relevant space, they will just turn into insects in amber.
Three Class B investigation teams were wandering outside. Fu Xingchuan was standing at the front with a limp on his injured leg, and a black cat was standing quietly at his feet.
"yes."
Hao Wen Ce wiped the sweat from his forehead and let out a long sigh.
Huang Jin swallowed his saliva and tried not to look at the broken space: "Fu, Fu Tianyi and Lu Xiaohe are still in there..."
beep.
Everyone was silent after seeing An.
"Senior Fu, this is against the rules." Wang Zhou from Group 7 said with a slight stammer, "We must obey the orders of the commander in the rear and must not act without authorization..."
When Hao Wen Ce said this, Huang Jin thought he was just being sarcastic. Yin Ren had already entered the gap, so no matter how much trouble he made, it would at most affect the space on the other side of the gap.
"… What do you mean?" Hao Wen Ce narrowed his eyes. "You have no authority. I can only make my own judgment."
"Preventive lockdown measures need to be initiated." Dr. Cat squatted at Fu Xingchuan's feet, with the tip of his tail slightly curled up.
"Yin Ren believed that the attacker valued the other side and wanted to tear the gap to force him to take action"... This reason sounded unreliable. Except for Fu Xingchuan and Li Nian, other people might not know that Yin Ren was an evil creature.
"I suggest that the main force defend at a farther distance." Fu Xingchuan stared at the building "fragments" that kept changing like a kaleidoscope. "We are enough for this place."
"I'll go too. I'll take all the consequences on my own!" Ge Tingting's face was still dazed from sleep. "All my friends are in there!"
He paused, as if waiting for something.
"This is no small matter." Hao Wen Ce was very dissatisfied. "According to my calculations, the concentration of the evil power here changes very strangely. And there is an abnormally large and close 'transition space'."
Good question, Huang Jin was choked.
The entire abandoned building was covered with dense cracks.
"Follow me and tell me in detail." Hao Wen Ce tilted his head.
He had no obligation to go, as Group 7 was waiting outside. He had already reported the news, so he had done his best and left the rest to fate.
This is against the security regulations, and Fu Xingchuan is enough. Ge Tingting is just a hot-blooded young girl, so it is normal that she does not know the seriousness of the matter.
Besides, staying outside was not just a bystander. He could fully assist Hao Wen Ce and his team in their external work. He was at most a gifted spiritual craftsman, not a strong man like "Yan Wang" who could save the world.
All he had to do was stand still.
Just as before, plan each step carefully and carefully - as long as you don't take risks, you won't have to take additional risks. As long as you don't pursue, you won't be hurt by failure.
As long as you stay here, you don't have to face the unknown future.
Just like before.
Huang Jin stood stiffly. In the dim lighting, countless fragments of space merged and folded in front of him.
After a brief pause, Fu Xingchuan took another step. Another fire dragon lit up and surrounded Ge Tingting. Two figures, one tall and one short, walked towards the abandoned building on the verge of collapse, and their figures were about to be swallowed by the darkness.
"Alright, let them go." Hao Wen Ce let out a breath, "That... Xiao Huang? Xiao Bai? Help me set up the venue, I need to measure the scene... Hello?!"
"Wait for me!"
Huang Jin tightly grasped the small packet of talismans in his hand and rushed forward quickly.
"I... I'll go too!"
Yin Ren felt the environmental spells activated around him. This transitional space should have been extremely huge, and it was cleverly divided by countless precise spells. His disturbance must have been discovered early in the morning, and the nearby space was neatly isolated, like a leaf falling off a branch.
Since they dared to build a base in the transition space, the creators must have taken precautionary measures.
But so what
Yin Ren was now too lazy to even think about the struggles among mortals.
The corpse wrapped inside him was cold and heavy, and the touch of the broken flesh made him shiver all over. Yin Ren didn't dare to touch the deep and shallow wounds carefully, but he couldn't help stroking them.
The body was so damaged that he couldn't even give him a goodbye kiss.
Under Yin's blade, his consciousness swelled, and the relic warehouse was completely reduced to ruins. A translucent black ocean filled the small space that was cut off - the means by which humans separated space were really crude, and he only moved a few times, and tiny cracks appeared around this small space.
There were tiny gaps.
It connects this transitional space and the real world corresponding to its location.
Yin Ren held Zhong Chengshuo's corpse deep inside his body, and he flowed almost numbly. If it weren't for the spiritual bond between him and Fu Xingchuan, he would have wanted to disperse the energy to suppress the evil force.
Perhaps he had devoured too many Mr. Qiu, and his body had expanded too much. Yin Ren gradually lost control of them, and his thoughts became more and more scattered and fragmented. The strange feeling of dizziness appeared again along with the paralysis, just like the last time he vomited in the hot pot restaurant, he was probably growing again...
Last time, he was suffering from growth retardation, so Zhong Cheng asked him to move into the bedroom. Yin Ren still remembered clearly the man's helpless look while holding the tonic.
He really wanted to go back to that time.
Now he has taken revenge, found the person, and the space nearby has been completely destroyed. As for the rest, let humans solve it themselves... Or...
Yin Ren didn't even have the strength left to go crazy. He tried to shrink his body and regain some human appearance, but unfortunately his body wouldn't obey him.
Sad. Tired. Suffocated.
Unprecedented pain.
He didn't want to think about the future anymore, he didn't like this era anymore, and he didn't want to like mortals anymore.
If he can't recover his human form, he might as well let him hold this corpse and fall asleep here. Time is always the most useful thing. If he sleeps for another thousand years, perhaps this sadness will be less severe.
By that time, the outside world will have changed dramatically.
Is there a more suitable new seal than the "transition space" of the gap
Yin Ren struggled to move his body, and his wings brushed over Zhong Chengshuo's body again and again.
[If I dream of you again.]
He thought hard.
[Don’t wake me up again, Zhong Cheng said.]
As the wings surged, Mr. Qiu's limbs stuck in the air were scattered. Pieces of debris flew around and landed on the wings, but Yin Ren did not move a single bit.
Yin Ren squeezed out the last of his rationality and began to construct magic around his body, preparing to reinforce this space into a real seal. The dim red light climbed up the damaged wall, weaving dense runes and covering the surroundings with layers of "red yarn".
"Puff." Huang Liang grabbed a wing ball and rubbed it hard, "Puff..."
Dozens of fire dragons followed, carefully gliding along the tiny gaps to ensure they would not close.
Fu Xingchuan's magic.
"Yin Ren, Yin Ren, can you hear me?" Someone called him, and the voice sounded anxious, like Lu Xiaohe.
"Is Yin Ren really in there?" Ge Tingting's AI voice was very clear, "This place makes people feel very uncomfortable..."
"Something's wrong..." Fu Tianyi's voice was hoarse from lack of water, "You have to get out quickly."
Poor young people, they have no idea of the truth.
But it doesn't matter. After he seals himself here, Fu Xingchuan might tell them the truth. He doesn't know how long it will take to recover his human form, or maybe he will never recover. Unfortunately, Zhong Cheng said that as for his parents, they can only deal with it according to the plan that Zhong Cheng said he left behind...
[Tell Fu Xingchuan that I want to seal myself.]
Yin Ren raised his small wings with great effort and rubbed the Huang Liang gently.
[Tell him that I have dealt with the sniper and asked him to investigate the enemy. How much he can find out depends on human luck...]
Huangliang made a long and sad puffing sound.
[Hu Tao and Lu Tan Fei are both powerful guys registered under my name. They are your descendants. You must take good care of them.]
“Puff! Puff—”
[Go ahead.]
Huang Liangshuo's big eyeballs became moist.
[Go ahead. I'm just taking a nap, don't worry.]
Yin Ren repeated.
The ball flew out with a puff, and in the darkness, only a few fire dragons were left, swimming carefully. Their light stained Mr. Qiu's body, reflecting an indescribable dark light.
The translucent "black sea water" is as calm as a mirror.
It's not much different from before, Yin Ren thought. Before, they always slept with their foreheads touching. This time, they can be considered to be sleeping close together. It's a pity that Zhong Cheng said he couldn't give him a hug.
The feeling of Wing Tuan being hugged is still clearly etched in my memory.
The touch was so vivid, it felt like he was being hugged tightly.
Yin Ren: “?”
His wings seemed to be hugged tightly.
It was like a bucket of ice water hitting him head-on. His blurred consciousness was suddenly shocked and condensed. Yin Ren didn't care that his body was difficult to control. He tried his best to swing his wings and feel the posture of the corpse.
The body was broken, stiff, and cold as ever.
But its posture had indeed changed. At this moment, the pair of missing arms were no longer curled up against the chest, but stretched out, hugging the wings tightly. Something was pressing on the palm of the corpse, which was a bit painful.
What's going on
Could it be that he was too attached to the past and unconsciously moved Zhong Chengshuo's body
Time seemed to freeze, Yin Ren's wings trembled slightly, and he carefully pulled away from Zhong Chengshuo's embrace.
The next moment, the corpse dissatisfiedly pulled back the wings that it was trying to pull away and rubbed them gently with its neck.
Yin Ren: “… ?!”
The sealing technique that was being perfected came to an abrupt halt, and all the wings exploded at once.
This time, he really stopped thinking.
"Zhong... Zhong Cheng said?"
The author has something to say:
Xiao Yin: Tell about your last wishes (?)
Xiao Yin: Woohoo, prepare to shut yourself off
Xiao Zhong: (sticky)
