Embers Ad Infinitum - Vol 2.4 Chapter 1

Shang Jianyao and Jiang Baimian stood at the end of the tunnel, looking at the small city surrounded by towering towers and the “living dead” swaying out.

I heard the screeching sound of the wind blowing across the valley, across the street, and among the buildings, as if a group of beginners were there playing their instruments.

And Du Heng, who came here with them, was like a bubble, shattered and evaporated under the sunlight.

To Jiang Baimian, this is like a fantasy.

In the next second, she and Shang Jianyao felt a headache at the same time, dizzy, and their souls seemed to leave their bodies.

They are all experienced people and know that this is a precursor to suffering from “no-heart disease”.

And it’s very likely that some Zhi Sui or some “New World” powerhouse is trying to absorb their consciousness!

Shang Jianyao didn’t hesitate, and he didn’t have time to squeeze the temples on both sides blocked by the helmet, his spirit sank, his consciousness closed, and he directly entered the “Spiritual Corridor”.

He rushed out of his “131” room, came out of “205” without turning a bit, and pushed the door in.

The dark door, which is heavy and vague, stands quietly in the dream without any change, but it is no longer open.

Shang Jianyao stretched out his hands and pushed it hard, and the door opened silently.

At the same time as the rays of light shone here, Shang Jian Yao didn’t care to look at the situation inside, glanced at the towering tower-shaped building, and suddenly rushed forward.

When Jiang Baimian had a headache and was in a trance, he suddenly felt an indescribable calm.

The intense dizziness and extreme headache all disappeared, as if they had never appeared.

If it wasn’t for the veins on his forehead still twitching, Jiang Baimian would have wondered if he had experienced hallucinations again.

Considering that Du Heng was beside her before, she did not let Shang Jianyao take out the “Angel of Life” necklace, “Six Senses Pearl” and Little Jade Buddha. Now this situation should not come from Zhi Sui’s blessing. She moved her heart and turned her eyes. He turned to Shang Jianyao, who was beside him.

Shang Jianyao stood there, motionless, and did not lose his balance due to the support of the military exoskeleton device.

Jiang Baimian, who probably understood that he had entered the “new world” and provided him with some protection, immediately stretched out his hand and “pulled out” Shang Jianyao’s body,

Take him out of the tunnel, into the valley, and to the outskirts of the small city.

This is not the disorientation caused by “Lu Chi”, but Jiang Baimian remembers what Du Heng said, he suspects that only the spirit or consciousness entering the “new world” has major flaws, and the body must be entered at the same time to be considered perfect “New World” powerhouse.

However, as the two of them set foot in the small city, Shang Jianyao’s body did not become lighter, disappeared, or had any other changes.

And all the “living dead” who swayed from different corners of the city flocked here.

Only at this time did Jiang Baimian really see their appearance clearly:

Each of them had cloudy eyes, bloodshot eyes, and a slightly hunched body.

“Heartless”!

There are a large number of “unintended people” in this small city that is suspected to be a real “new world”!

However, the expressions of these “Heartless” are not too distorted, and their eyes are dull, without the feeling of a hungry beast.

Because of this, Jiang Baimian swayed at a glance and thought it was the “living dead” in the old world entertainment materials.

Taking a closer look, she froze inwardly.

Among those “unintentional”, there are dozens or hundreds of newer clothes and soft hair, which is in stark contrast to the greasy and outdated companions around.

Did he not leave but took the elevator to the fifth-floor tunnel to accompany some members of the Eighth Research Institute to enter here, and became “unintentional”… the last “sacrifice” of the Eighth Research Institute? Jiang Baimian’s thoughts changed, and he saw that the eyes of those “unintentional people” gradually changed, and they appeared vicious, hostile, bloodthirsty and other colors.

It’s like an outsider who wakes up a sleeping “gravekeeper” and will suffer the most violent attack.

Jiang Baimian judged the situation and felt that it was a foolish thing to rely on the military exoskeleton device to confront the situation when it was unclear how many “high-level unintentional people” were here.

She plans to evacuate temporarily, and after Shang Jianyao has a preliminary understanding of the “New World” situation and can provide certain support or information, she will hide her human consciousness, and use the military exoskeleton device to sneak in here secretly, confirming and ” Name the threatening “unintended people”, investigate the secrets of this small city, and cooperate with the actions of the companions in the “New World” in reality.

As an experienced fighter, Jiang Baimian did not hesitate and took action as soon as he made a decision.

She pulled up Shang Jianyao’s body again, and led him back into the tunnel before the group of “unintentional people” came over.

That is to say, the tunnel is so close and visible to the naked eye that Jiang Baimian did not get lost.

As for whether this will affect Shang Jianyao’s consciousness and body entering the “new world” at the same time, Jiang Baimian has no scruples for the time being, because if she leaves Shang Jianyao’s body in that small city, she will most likely end up being killed. eat.

Really eat it.

And she doesn’t see any difference in bringing the body into the “new world” of reality.

Therefore, Shang Jianyao’s body must be transferred out first for safety.

When Shang Jianyao has gained a firm foothold in the “New World” and has inquired about the corresponding information, she will make up for it.

After returning to the tunnel, Jiang Baimian did not rush to evacuate to a farther place, turned around calmly, and closed the heavy iron-black front door again.

After doing this, she took Shang Jianyao all the way back. After losing her direction several times, she finally left the main building of the Eighth Research Institute with difficulty, and saw the jeep belonging to the “old tune group”.

“Pangu Creatures”, Room 14, Floor 647, Underground Building.

Bai Chen and Long Yuehong, like every time they came back, finished the routine and returned to the team’s office to wait for the test results.

Sitting in his seat, Long Yuehong looked around and laughed at himself:

“I actually felt a little deserted.”

“There are only two people left, it will definitely be deserted.” Bai Chen said truthfully.

Long Yuehong quickly stopped:

“You can’t say that!

“Too, too unlucky.”

“Yeah.” Bai Chen didn’t get annoyed by it, and didn’t joke about “you didn’t say it,” and nodded solemnly, “They will definitely come back.”

At that time, they didn’t necessarily go back to the underground building, maybe they met on the surface… Long Yuehong didn’t dare to say these words.

He subconsciously wanted to discuss whether the special state that Teacher Du Heng added to that part of the memory would work, and he kept silent rationally.

The room fell silent again.

The towers that pierce into the sky are surrounded by buildings with lights on, and they are lined up one by one, squeezing out the streets.

Shang Jianyao, bathed in darkness, stood at the entrance of a street on the edge of the city, and said to himself in a loud voice:

“There are still a lot of differences.

“The real tower is not so high, there are no lights around, and those ‘zombies’ can’t be seen here…”

As soon as he entered the “new world” just now, he didn’t care about observing the environment, and directly used the connection between consciousness and physical body to let his spirit penetrate the barrier and return to the dust, adding a “protective shield” to Jiang Baimian’s consciousness. .

After completing this matter, he will have time to look around.

“Yes, yes.” Shang Jianyao echoed himself.

He then rubbed his chin again and said:

“Sure enough, at the level of the new world, you can directly extract human consciousness to supplement your own consumption.

“It’s no wonder that the powerhouses of the New World can crush the awakened ones at the level of the ‘Spiritual Corridor’ even if they don’t return completely~www.mtlnovel.com~…”

Having said that, Shang Jianyao was suddenly a little excited:

“I wonder if I can split into ten people in the ‘New World’ and act separately?”

He said try, just try, ah ah ah, but still alone.

“Obviously it feels okay, but it is limited by some kind of power, and it is difficult to even manifest a weapon…” The sinister Shang Jianyao looked at the tower in the center of the city again, “You must first obtain Some existential permission?”

Reckless Shang Jian Yao urged:

“Are you going to stand here all the time? Go to that high tower. On the way, you will meet Wu Meng, Flora, Barnard and the others and ask them more about New World’s situation.”

This time, his suggestion was approved by the majority of Shang Jianyao.

Shang Jianyao immediately stepped forward and walked into the street ahead.

Silently, a street lamp on the side of the road lit up, casting a yellowish light.

“It’s very friendly!” Shang Jianyao, the youngest person who attaches importance to emotional psychology, said sincerely, “I was afraid that I could not see the road, so I opened a street light for me.”

As he continued forward, another street light suddenly came on, while the one behind him was dark and silent.

“What’s this called? It’s called saving electricity!” Shang Jianyao applauded.

At this time, he saw a dim yellow light shining from a room on the second floor in a three-story classical building with a reddish river wind on the street.

And there was no sound, a dead silence.
