Ji Qinglin followed the five omnics in front of him into the tunnel.
It's a pity that I couldn't walk with Lu Bing, otherwise it should be safer.
But I made the right choice to come in early in the morning. I didn't see anyone in the tunnel.
The stone walls and floors on both sides have been treated and look very smooth. Traces of some machinery and equipment can still be seen in some places.
It can be seen that Huyan Zongren has renovated the entire mine in the mountain, making it look like an underground palace.
Occasionally you can see patrolling soldiers, but the guards are not very strict. Maybe the place itself is safe enough, and when you enter the door, you need two security locks, fingerprint and retina.
Fortunately, this time with Murphy's help, hypnosis and hacking allowed him to sneak in so smoothly.
No wonder he is one of the Nine Heroes. Who has the ability to steal information is not a matter of minutes?
There are rooms on both sides of the tunnel. You can enter with the same fingerprint and retinal test. Under Murphy's guidance, we advanced nearly a hundred meters.
Finally, a warehouse twice the size of the previous square appeared, containing many mechanical equipment.
Ji Qinglin stepped forward to check and found that these models were quite old and may have been used since the establishment of this place.
Murphy reminded:
"This is the warehouse that stores the most equipment. Let's start searching from here."
Ji Qinglin glanced around and replied:
"I'll screen it as soon as possible, but Xiao Qinghong's body probably hasn't been transported for that long. Please check whether it's a newer warehouse or a place where Huyan Zongren often goes."
"Okay, but you have to investigate as soon as possible. You have already made a move on the water player."
"Huh? So fast?"
How long has it been since you came here? I have just arrived at the first warehouse, and I don’t have any clues or clues. Why did Bing’er take action?
Didn't we agree to keep a low profile and search first? What kind of water energy can you use to escape from your body? You can escape like hell and you'll be discovered as soon as you come in, right?
"What's going on over there, Miss Bing'er? Why did the fight start so quickly?"
"Don't worry about her. Just search her first. We can't confirm yet whether she has been discovered."
They've all started taking action, but you still can't confirm whether they've been discovered?
Did she drink too much? Do it without being discovered? On the way, I clearly asked him to drink less Coke.
At the same time, on the other side, Lu Bing, who was lying on the back of the hypnotized Yu Jingxuan, was also curious about this question:
He obviously didn't do anything, so he was exposed?
With Yu Jingxuan's cultivation level, he would be damned if he could discover his invisible self!
Therefore, Lu Bing endured it and did not jump down to fight back. Instead, he used his water energy to move Yu Jingxuan's body backwards.
But after all, this blow was quite sudden, and it was not his own body. The dodge was slightly stagnant, but Yu Jingxuan's flaming hand knife still struck the neck of Yu Jingxuan who was hypnotized.
Fortunately, Lu Bing used his strength to protect him, so that the hypnotized Yu Jingxuan was not decapitated by one blow, but his throat was still slashed and blood spurted out.
When Lu Bing saw this, he also took a step back and jumped off Yu Jingxuan's back, but still maintained Shui Jin's escape method.
Originally, this set of exercises could only be used when close to a certain object, but after all, Lu Bing had a delicate body and excellent physical skills, and he was not noticed immediately when he landed behind Yu Jingxuan.
Yu Jingxuan, who was hypnotized, suddenly woke up because of the severe pain, but it was too late when he woke up and he didn't understand the current situation at all.
Shouldn't I be transporting those supplies? Something happened on the road and then how did you end up here?
Looking at his other self who had just extinguished the flaming hand knife, Yu Jingxuan covered his neck and said in surprise:
"Cough cough cough! What are you doing?"
Yu Jingxuan, who launched the surprise attack, saw that the sneak attack had been successful, so he had no scruples and said with a smile:
"Each clone has an independent consciousness, which is very dangerous. Giving you independent consciousness only allows you to go out and do things. Now that the things are done, of course you have to take them back."
Yu Jingxuan, who was seriously injured, covered his neck and said in confusion:
"It's not impossible! I am the original Yu Jingxuan!"
"If I don't inject you with the memory of being the Beginning, will you go out to do things with your own righteousness? I, the real Beginning of Jingxuan, have never left this cave."
"You bastard!"
Although he didn't know how he ended up here as soon as he opened his eyes, he understood what the person in front of him said. Yu Jingxuan still wanted to resist, but he was seriously injured and no longer had the ability to resist.
The person on the opposite side slashed straight at him with another flaming knife.
Bang puff——
This time, he finally cut off the copied head of Yu Jingxuan, but even if he died, the other party still died standing.
Yu Jingxuan glanced at him and said:
"As expected of my clone."
As he spoke, Yu Jingxuan used the communicator to contact his subordinates and said:
"There is another batch that needs to be processed. Take away the corpses in Tunnel No. 15. Modify the memory to the state when it is not triggered. It is still the original self. After the modification is completed, re-sew the wounds and stand by. Also remember to give them remote control death devices. This batch will be Because I copied it too quickly and didn’t have time to add the device, I had to do it myself.”
Only then did Lu Bing fully understand:
I don't know if other replicas handle it this way. It's possible that it's just high-level replicas that need to be processed in time.
These copies themselves may not be safe and stable, or may be to ensure that they do not rebel and kill their former selves in pursuit of their unique selves.
So every time they send out copies, they kill them and recycle them when they come back.
It's a bit scary to think about it. Every replica of an omnic that thinks it's unique may be a combination of a bunch of parts and consciousness that can be killed at any time.
And they themselves are still in panic and don’t know.
Yu Jingxuan gently kicked the head of his clone off the ground and said:
"You are all the same to me."
Just as he was about to leave, the blood spurted out by the clone seemed to come alive, and the blood turned into giant claws and rushed towards Yu Jingxuan.
This incredible scene also shocked Yu Jingxuan.
Having killed his own clones so many times in the past, the guilty feeling had long since dissipated, but seeing this scene now, he still couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Thinking that there was something strange about the clone, he clasped his hands in front of his body and used his strength to strike down with Burning Flame Worshiping Buddha and slashing force.
Bang——
However, the flames, which were strong enough to illuminate the entire tunnel, did not cut the headless corpse copied by Yu Jingxuan in two.
Instead, the Burning Flame Worshiping Slash, which was cut down with both arms, was easily grasped by the palm made of blood.
When masters compete with each other, they can tell the depth of each move.
Yu Jingxuan was about to turn around and retreat, but the giant blood hand directly grabbed his arm and pulled him firmly over.
Seeing that the situation was critical, Yu Jingxuan's arms touched each other and his whole body was filled with anger.
boom--
The burst of flames finally dispersed the blood in his palm.
However, at this moment, a delicate figure suddenly jumped out from behind the headless body of Yu Jingxuan's clone.
The beautiful figure appeared in front of him in an instant, and then struck Yu Jingxuan's chest with a palm.
Bang——
The fire energy running through the body suddenly stopped as if blocked by something, and the flames on the body also dissipated without a trace.
Yu Jingxuan, who cut off the fire with one palm and was unable to use his energy, knew that he was far from the opponent of the person in front of him, but at this time it was already too late to escape.
Lu Bing's small palm moved downwards to add another palm. With a "bang" sound, Yu Jingxuan felt that his meridians were broken and his body went limp.
When he wanted to open his mouth and scream, a stream of water shot directly into his mouth and sealed his mouth and nose.
Lu Bing walked up to him, leaned down and whispered:
"You are the same in my eyes. Answer my questions now, otherwise I will let you meet your clone now."
Although Yu Jingxuan didn't recognize who this was, he knew that his life was in someone else's hands, so he could only nod hurriedly at this time.
"Very good, Huyan Zongren is here, right? Where is he?"
Yu Jingxuan nodded first, and then his eyes drifted to the depths of the tunnel.
Lu Bing raised his finger, and Yu Jingxuan was finally able to swallow the water in his mouth.
"Ahem, cough, cough. Master, please forgive me. Boss, boss, is inside. Just walk along this tunnel to the end. I can take you there."
I didn't expect Yu Jingxuan's No. 1 clone to be so cowardly. It seems that the tough guys he encountered before may have had their memories modified.
It's really speechless to think about it. Yu Jingxuan's upper-level copy has no backbone at all, but the lower-level copy has been transformed by memory and has a strong will of iron.
Lu Bing did not let Yu Jingxuan get up, but continued to ask:
"Do you know where there is a batch of goods shipped from Aragami Technology?"
"Aragami Technology? Aragami Technology has sent a lot of things, including supplies, equipment, techniques, and even sleep cabins."
"Hibernation capsule? Where is it?"
"Those things were just delivered not long ago. They are all placed in the warehouse behind the boss's training area. If the master wants to go there, I can lead the way. When the time comes, I will lead the boss away. You can go in and get whatever you want."
How could Lu Bing trust such a coward who would say anything to survive?
Besides, he didn't have any threatening means at his disposal. It was too late for Murphy to prepare for hypnosis again. Once he met other people, this guy would definitely try his best to escape in order to survive, and then he would be completely exposed.
Murphy also reminded:
"Someone is coming over. The location he mentioned may be right. I can guide you there, but taking this guy there will definitely be bad!"
Lu Bing also agreed with this point, so he stretched out his two fingers and tapped Yu Jingxuan's eyebrows.
As if he noticed something, Yu Jingxuan hurriedly begged for mercy:
"Don't! Me"
Bang——
With a flick of his fingers, Yu Jingxuan's eyes widened, blood flowed from the corners of his eyes, and his head hung weakly to the side.
Lu Bing, who heard the footsteps, jumped up to the top of the tunnel and once again used water power to hide his body.
Soon, two of Yu Jingxuan's subordinates ran over pushing a cart.
"What the hell? Mr. Yu is dead?"
"Don't talk nonsense! Didn't you hear Mr. Yu just tell us that the ones who died here were clones? These two should be clones. I have seen Mr. Yu kill four or five people in the past, all in this place."
"Oh, oh, that's right. Looking at this guy wearing Mr. Yu's clothes, I thought he was me."
The two of them thought the same thing. Yu Jingxuan was so strong, how could he die just after making a phone call.
Another urged:
"This must be a copy with a higher position. Okay, let's deal with it quickly. After talking so much, Mr. Yu will find out that he won't be able to eat it and walk around."
The two of them carried Yu Jingxuan's bodies into the car and pushed them deeper into the tunnel.
Yu Jingxuan, who killed his own clone every time he completed a mission, never thought until his death that his No. 1 clone would one day be taken away like an ordinary clone.
Lu Bing originally wanted to kill the two men and silence them, but he didn't expect them to understand so thoroughly, so he followed behind him secretly.
————————
In order to ensure that nothing was missed, Ji Qinglin searched all the warehouses he encountered.
Just as he was thinking about where Huyan Zongren would hide Xiao Qinghong's body, Murphy contacted him again:
"The clone who killed Yu Jingxuan over there in Wishui has obtained the hiding place of Xiao Qinghong's body. It should be in Huyan Zongren's private warehouse."
"I'm going. Can you tell me earlier next time? I've finished searching two warehouses here. Please show me the way to go there."
A lot of criminal evidence was recorded here. There are indeed a lot of good things in the two warehouses, but it's just not convenient to transport them out now.
If things don't collapse and the place doesn't collapse, they can be brought back to the company.
"You and the water player are not in the same direction. It's a little detoured, but you passed by the room where Huyan Zongren placed the immortal's body."
"It's strange. With such an important thing as the immortal's body, Huyan Zongren didn't put it in his private warehouse or take it with him?"
"No, the immortal's body shouldn't be in another room. I once saw him take it out and enter that room and never take it out again. I don't know why exactly."
Could it be that there is something wrong with Huyan Zongren’s immortal body? Can't be placed with the user?
After all, I have seen immortal spines before that can drive people crazy and even absorb other people's abilities, so I am mentally prepared for some of the immortal remains that are not normal.
In order to arrive as quickly as possible, Ji Qinglin did not let the hypnotized omnics protect him.
Under Murphy's guidance, Ji Qinglin quickly moved forward around the outer circle of the tunnel with a shadow-chasing step.
Fortunately, unlike the inside of the mine, there were not as many warnings on the outside. Ji Qinglin's journey was smooth, and he soon reached the stone room used by Huyan Zongren to contact the "immortal".
"right here."
Ji Qinglin said cautiously:
"Isn't it? There aren't even guards? It's safe all the way here. Will the immortal's body be inside?"
Murphy snorted and said:
"The cave is full of video surveillance, motion sensing surveillance systems and infrared sensing systems. If I hadn't blocked the signal for you two anytime and anywhere, you two would have been discovered more than 30 times. Act quickly and stop talking nonsense. I will open the door for you, it’s your fault if you can’t find it, but don’t say I didn’t help.”
Ji Qing and Lin Xin said that if he had a friend like Murphy, it wouldn't be a matter of minutes to withdraw money from the bank vault?
Di——
The stone door slowly opened, and Ji Qinglin did not dare to delay. He looked around and saw that there was a stone room inside. There were many servers for unknown purposes inside, and there was also a meditation mat on the ground.
It seems to be a place for cultivation. Huyan Zongren is a bit interesting. Could it be that these servers can help him enhance his skills?
Since it is a place of cultivation, it is indeed very likely that the remains of immortals are kept there.
Ji Qinglin soon discovered a different instrument, placed above the central server.
At first glance, it looked like a huge and bulky old-fashioned radio, but I recognized it because I had seen it in Zhang Huaimin's shop before.
This should be a soul consciousness receiver in the virtual space. In fact, the principle is similar to that of a radio.
The virtual space is vast and boundless, but as long as someone uses their own soul consciousness to emit soul thoughts at a fixed frequency, they can communicate with others.
Some people say that they have encountered one god and four saints there, while others say that most of them are liars.
This thing may be a bit boring for ordinary Qi Practitioners, but for omnic Qi Practitioners who are born with advantages in equipment and electronic equipment, it is a good pastime.
Could it be that Huyan Zongren has been practicing with this thing?
Yu Jingxuan, I told myself before that the fugue is too virtual, does it mean to find an expert in the virtual space?
It seems that he really asked about the method of replicating the rebirth of the omnics from inside, so could the person in the virtual space who told him the method be the mastermind behind it?
Thinking about it, Ji Qinglin secretly wrote down the signal parameters on the soul consciousness receiver.
There was only so much space in the house. After knocking on the surrounding walls to confirm that there were no mezzanines or mechanisms, the only possibility was these servers.
However, it was really inconvenient to disassemble it here, so Ji Qinglin directly sat on the ground and connected to Yunpan Qihai.
Judging from the experience of practicing many times before, if the distance is really close, the immortal body will respond to the strong energy.
Ji Qinglin did not explode directly, but slowly used the energy in his body to cover the entire room as much as possible, feeling the flow of energy calmly.
Sure enough, it was soon discovered that the flowing energy had stalled at the server on the far right.
Click——
I took off the back cover of the server and found the crystal clear forearm bones inside.
Bang——
At the same time, Huyan Zongren, who was resting in a living area filled with mechanical equipment, suddenly woke up.
Behind him is the private warehouse, but Huyan Zongren's goal is not there.
He turned around and picked up the black robe next to him, jumped off the mechanical bed and turned around to head towards the stone room where the immortal's body was stored.
But as soon as he flew into the tunnel, he suddenly noticed something and slowly looked back at the darkness on the other side of the tunnel behind him.
Huyan Zongren, whose right half of his body was completely mechanical, put on his clothes to block his mechanical body. A fierce light flashed through his light blue eyes, and he reached out and tapped on the metal desk.
Whoosh whoosh——
The pen on the table shot into the tunnel as if it was being induced.
Ding ding ding——
There were several soft sounds, and something in the darkness flicked all the pens down.
Tons tons tons tons——
With the sound of drinking, Lu Bing, who was drinking the last bottle of Coke with him, walked out of the dark tunnel, threw the empty bottle aside, and sighed softly:
"Tell him that the infiltration failed."
Thank you for your reading and support! (Huyan Zongren: When you open your eyes, all the enemies are in front of the bed?)
