Jiang Zhou, whose body had not been strengthened or modified in any way, could not be said to be vulnerable when faced with dozens of predator spiders rushing toward him at the same time. At least it could be said that he was helpless.
In this case, he might as well not struggle, just stay where he is, and be at ease as a victory mechanism.
In this way, if he failed in the end, he could at least die in style.
Of course, he is not sitting still and waiting for death.
While sitting quietly, Jiang Zhou almost gave up all his brain's computing power to Liao Qi.
Don't let me down, myself.
Observation, analysis, evaluation, tactics may...
The first predator burst in from the window sill. Its eight jointed limbs were closed together, like a rotating drill in mid-air, and it rushed towards Jiang Zhou's head.
The "grasshopper" type reinforced tendon was operating at full power, and the floor tiles under Liao Qi's feet were directly stepped on with spiderweb-like cracks.
Then, he jumped up at an incredible speed, roaring and meeting the other party...
Passed by?
Yes, Liao Qi did not hit the predator directly, but passed it in mid-air.
However, at the moment when the two sides brushed against each other, the pile driver on Liao Qi's right hand touched the tip of the opponent's fusiform body, and then...
"Buzz buzz..."
Just like when he used a pile driver to detonate the unfilled armor-piercing projectile inserted into the Arachne II shell, the violent tremor affected an extremely small area, and the predator seemed to have had the tail end of the predator crushed. Like Burt's Tears, the smooth metal shell cracked instantly, and the internal control circuit was shattered.
Liao Qi, who jumped up, hit another predator in mid-air, knocking it to the side with a shoulder.
At the same time, the "Scorpio" in his other hand aimed at the third predator that jumped into the air and pulled the trigger.
All this happened in just one second.
Previously, it was extremely difficult for Jiang Zhou to kill even one predator. Using Liao Qi's horn, he killed three of them in one second.
It wasn't until Liao Qi finished this dizzying set of operations that Booker finally reacted.
He growled low, pointed the nail gun in his hand at the door of the hall, and then opened fire regardless of consumption.
What a quick response...
While firing, Booker was still secretly marveling.
It completely exceeded my expectations. Liao Qi's reaction speed was really fast.
He almost took action the moment "Paradox" asked to increase the difficulty... no, he might even have started to act before the other party fully stated the request.
It seems as if the requirements of the "paradox" were anticipated!
what is this? Get almost beastly intuition because of the edge enhancement system?
But Liao Qi's previous tactical choices were full of rational feelings that had been carefully calculated and analyzed.
As one of the most popular depth 1 adjustment modifications, the edge enhancement system will strengthen the beast side of human beings, allowing the strengthener to gain a natural intuition for danger.
But the effect after installation also varies from person to person.
Some people are almost as good as not pretending, and they lose some mental points.
After some people installed it, they gained an intuition that was almost like a sixth sense.
Of course, the more obvious the effect, the better.
According to statistics, the better the effect after installing the edge enhancement system, the greater the decline in mental index will be.
Some people's consciousness has even directly degenerated into humanoid beasts, completely unable to control animal desires such as eating and mating, and losing all human rationality.
Most of the wild beasts and barbarians wandering outside the resettlement area and living in the bad soil are like this.
Even if it is not as exaggerated as regressing into a beast, most installers will have psychological problems that are easy to get addicted to.
But in any case, it is simply unheard of for someone like Liao Qi to be able to accurately organize tactical choices in such a short period of time while possessing an almost beastly intuitive reaction!
It's like he has two brains.
One is responsible for immediate reaction, and the other is responsible for tactical analysis.
Kerit, my old friend, you really made a mistake when you tried to remove Liao Qi...
For some reason, at such a life-or-death moment, he suddenly thought of Icarus's former leader, Corell, who was once his best friend.
Recalling that the other party rejected Liao Qi's request for depth 1 adjustment and transformation three times.
You are always like this, always making mistakes, always making wrong judgments, always laughing and leading everyone on the road to hell...
Booker sighed in his heart.
But I absolutely won't.
Booker's eyes were filled with determination as he watched Liao Qi stand up and kill two predator spiders smoothly.
Icarus will become powerful in his hands in the future, powerful enough to touch that unreachable dream.
Thinking of this, Booker didn't intend to make any reservations.
The Aegis components that were protected on the body were all transformed into ammunition and filled into the nail gun. He stamped his feet suddenly, and his whole body instantly floated in the air.
It was as if gravity no longer had any effect on him.
And the eight predator spiders that occupied the commanding heights and planned to rush in from the door of the hall were accurately shot by him on the floor one by one.
It's like a specimen pinned to a display stand by an insect needle.
After dealing with the predators that poured in from the entrance of the hall, Booker turned around. At this moment, Liao Qi was next to the textile machine, cleaning up the remaining enemies that climbed up from the left window sill.
One of the predators was burned through the core by Liao Qi using Scorpio, but the other cunningly rushed directly towards the "Paradox", seemingly intending to use it as a cover to destroy the textile machine.
Unable to decide whether shooting from this angle would hit Paradox, and whether hitting him would be considered a provocation, Booker hesitated.
But at this time, Liao Qi suddenly roared ferociously and rushed over desperately.
Then, under Booker's horrified gaze, he threw himself in front of the "Paradox". Then he directly used his body to meet the predator that was attacking the textile machine.
It looked as if he was taking a bullet from Paradox.
Three sharp limbs pierced directly through Liao Qi's belly, and the boss spat out a mouthful of blood from his mouth.
But even with all his efforts, he was still a step too late.
The predator took Liao Qi with it. Although it deviated slightly from the direction, it still rubbed the corner of Mr. Paradox's clothes and hit the textile machine behind it.
Their impact smashed the textile machine into pieces.
There was a burst of dust flying, and Booker's heart instantly sank to the bottom.
The task is to keep them away from the textile machines.
In other words, the trial...failed.
Ruined……
God knows what fate awaits them.
But even if the trial failed, Liao Qi still persisted.
He first pushed the pile driver in his hand against the mouthpart-shaped part of the predator, directly smashing its control circuit to pieces. Then he raised his head and looked at Booker who was flying in the air, pointed to the side with blood and shouted loudly:
"Booker, quick! Right!"
His voice was excited, as if he was unaware of failure.
On the right, the last two predators climbed up from the ledge.
But isn’t it over already?
Is there any point in taking out those two predators now?
Booker thought.
Or……
As long as life is not over, will you not give up even if you fail?
Feeling the never-give-up passion of this young man from the bottom of the street, Booker also nodded excitedly.
Then he immediately turned his head and used the last steel nails to nail the predators to the spot.
As the last two predators were eliminated, the Arachne II Stalker on the side immediately lifted the search state and re-entered the attack state.
The limbs that had previously been contracted for defense were extended, and the hole that had been opened in the shell was exposed again.
"Finally kill it and the trial will be over."
"Paradox" who had been silently observing their battle said so.
There was no emotion in His voice.
…………
Severe pain tortured Jiang Zhou.
The body double procedure restores the real body in the real world one to one, so after the injury, the pain will not be less at all.
At the same time, Jiang Zhou could still feel the life of the substitute Liao Qi in front of him draining away.
If the substitute dies here, his data will be left in the abyss dark web. Then the malicious program wandering inside will parse the data and try to enter the body of the base reality.
Then trigger the apoptosis program in the brain-computer interface to kill the real body in the base reality.
They must go back quickly, otherwise this "controllable factor" of their own will be revealed here.
Watching anxiously as Booker burned the internal circuitry of the Arachne II Stalker to ashes, Jiang Zhou kept thinking about what he should do next.
At this time, Booker fell from the air, walked over, and looked at Jiang Zhou nervously.
He said nothing, as if waiting for the latter's verdict.
Jiang Zhou took a slight breath, then turned his head to Liao Qi and the broken loom aside, and said in a very calm tone:
"The final result of the trial is...failure."
As he finished speaking, the wreckage of the previously destroyed Arachne II Stalker exploded instantly, turning into several data spheres of light floating around.
That's the technological blueprint on it.
