Under the night, a bonfire burned quietly, illuminating a small area around it. Here is a small platform under a leeward stone wall, with several wooden thorns arranged on the gentle slope.
Chu Jungui and Lin Xi sat around the campfire, waiting for dawn. This place is 75 kilometers away from the camp, which is close to the farthest distance Chu Jungui has explored. It was now three days since the last time the ape monster attacked. Chu Jungui had built an impregnable position, but there was no follow-up team waiting for the ape monster.
Lin Xi's judgment was that other explorers might have appeared on the path of the ape monster, attracting all the ape monsters. Therefore, Chu Jungui decided to expand the search range to 150 kilometers, which necessitated spending the night in the wild.
On the campfire stood a steel pot in which broth was simmering. With Lin Xi here, Chu Jungui naturally stopped eating dark dishes and honestly cooked broth.
Now that the two of them had eaten and drank enough, Lin Xi sat back on the stone wall and asked, "Is it still not working?"
Chu Jungui closed his eyes and sat cross-legged. After a moment, he opened his eyes, shook his head and said, "It seems that I am really not suitable for the Jade Forging Technique."
"It shouldn't be. It should be somewhat effective." Lin Xi was also helpless. She had already taught her the Jade Forging Technique, but in terms of cultivation, Chu Jungui was more indestructible than rotten wood. No matter how hard she practiced, there was no progress at all. Lin Xi actually knew little about the Jade Forging Technique. He knew how to practice it, but couldn't explain the principles.
In fact, the principle of cultivation is a difficult problem in the world. Even Dr. Zero has not researched the reason. Lin Xi is not focused on scientific research, so it is naturally impossible to know.
Chu Jun Gui had a vague guess that the internal structure of his body had long been diverging from that of humans. Many organs looked the same on the surface, but if you cut them open and look at them under a microscope, you would find that the microstructure has changed a lot. Big difference. This may be the reason why he cannot practice the Jade Forging Technique.
However, if Chu Jungui wants to become stronger, there are still many ways, and it does not necessarily have to rely on practice.
After trying again to no avail, Chu Jungui stopped practicing, looked at the inside of his body, and said, "I found that genes here will become more active and mutate more easily. I did an experiment in the past few days and carried more weight. It’s mostly done with the left hand, and it’s only been a few days now, and there are already some differences between the left and right arms.”
Chu Jungui stretched out his arms in front of Lin Xi. It could be seen that his left arm was thicker than his right arm. The results of these two or three days are comparable to three months of full-scale training in the outside world.
"It's a pity that this is just a virtual world."
Chu Jun returned and said: "Although it is virtual, it is also extremely real. At least within the scope of cognition, I can't see any difference between this place and the real world. If you get extraordinary power here, even if you can't take it outside, it's just Having experience in using it can also greatly increase combat power. And I suspect that since the material structure here can be copied in the outside world, can the way to possess extraordinary power also be copied? It’s just that we haven’t found it yet. The Federation’s Sons of Hell , it’s likely that he applied a little supernatural power.”
Lin Xi nodded.
Chu Jungui drew a map on the ground and said: "Now that the Real Dream is a key project in the entire dynasty, we must get enough merit here to show our value, and at the same time prevent our enemies from achieving success here. In addition, although the power of technology does not seem to be welcome here, we have overcome the biggest obstacle of micro master brains. No matter how many ape monsters there are, they cannot match the power of mass production."
"Isn't that a bit bullying?"
Chu Jungui smiled and said, "Maybe. But..."
Before he finished speaking, Lin Xi suddenly showed pain on his face, his whole body was filled with light, and a blank space suddenly appeared between his chest and abdomen! And her body was gradually showing signs of dissipating, even if the Jade Forging Technique was running at full speed, it couldn't stop it.
Chu Jungui rushed over and hugged her, but this was not an injury, but as if the flesh and blood in that part of the body had been wiped out out of thin air. A hole the size of a wine glass appeared. The flesh, bones, and blood vessels were clearly visible on the cross section!
Chu Jungui instantly thought of a possibility: Lin Xi's real body was harmed!
"Return! Hurry!" Chu Jungui quickly thrust a newly obtained return qualification into her hand.
Lin Xi endured the severe pain and activated her return qualification. A flash of light flashed and her figure disappeared. Chu Jungui then jumped up and ran towards the camp at full speed. All return qualifications are in camp and must be returned to be used.
In a base, the lights in the room where Lin Xi was located were dim. The hatch of her medical cabin had been opened. A nurse was holding a three-edged bayonet in both hands, and her delicate face had become ferocious and twisted. She raised the bayonet with both hands and stabbed Lin Xi's body hard!
A faint layer of light floated on the surface of Lin Xi's body. When the bayonet fell, it felt like it was piercing thick rubber. It was very difficult to penetrate. But the nurse had veins popping out on her forehead and her eyes were bloodshot. She pressed on the bayonet with all her strength and finally broke through the resistance. With a bang, the bayonet penetrated Lin Xi's abdomen until it had no handle.
The nurse showed excitement and madness, pulled out the bayonet, and stabbed her heart again. However, the blade slipped under the resistance of the faint light, and finally fell between the chest and abdomen, breaking through the body and being nailed to the ribs. The nurse couldn't cut through the ribs even after stabbing him several times, so with a fierce look on her face, she stabbed Lin Xi's abdomen hard again.
After this blow, she pressed the bloody blade against Lin Xi's neck, trying to cut her throat.
Lin Xi suddenly opened her eyes, opened her mouth, inhaled a mouthful of nutrient solution, and then sprayed out a water arrow, hitting the nurse's face. The nurse exclaimed, covering her face and taking a few steps back. Her eyes felt burning pain. She was so panicked that she forgot what she wanted to do.
Lin Xi reluctantly moved her right hand, touched a handle next to her, and pressed the alarm button hard. However, the room was still quiet and no alarm sounded.
Lin Xi immediately understood that the other party must have destroyed the alarm, and maybe even turned off the monitoring.
The culture fluid in the medical cabin was already bright red, and blood continued to gush out from the three wounds on Lin Xi's abdomen. Coupled with the sedative and anesthetic ingredients contained in the nutrient solution, it was very difficult for Lin Xi to even hold up his body at this moment. At this moment, her body functions have changed significantly, but the health monitoring system has obviously been turned off.
By this time the nurse had dried her eyes, which were red and swollen. She drew her bayonet again and rushed forward screaming.
Lin Xi reluctantly raised her arm, letting the knife stab her upper arm, and then another mouthful of nutrient solution spurted out. The nurse subconsciously closed her eyes tightly and backed away. Lin Xi was waiting for her reaction. He reached out and grabbed the nurse's lapel, and used her back to pull him out of the medical cabin.
The nurse didn't expect to bring Lin Xi out. Her feet gave way and she collapsed on the ground. Lin Xi took advantage of the situation and threw himself on her body. The last faint light flashed in his hands, pressing the nurse's head and using the help of The weight pushed her down and hit her head hard on the ground, causing her to pass out.
Lin Xi forced himself to drive away the sleepiness in his mind, took the bayonet from the nurse's hand, cut three pieces of cloth from her clothes, rolled them into a ball, and stuffed the wound on his abdomen. These few small movements have exhausted her strength. There is a manual alarm at the door, but it is 1.5 meters above the ground. The distance that can usually be spanned in one step has now become a natural chasm that can no longer be crossed.
Lin Xi sighed and used her last strength to move her body closer to the nurse, using her body temperature to keep herself warm. The next step is to wait, waiting for the staff to find something wrong and come in to check. As for when, no one knows.
Time seemed to move extremely slowly. Coldness and sleepiness gradually hit Lin Xi's heart. She tried to open her eyes, but she could no longer see anything.
At this time, she suddenly heard a faint alarm sound. Not in her room, but far away, in another part of the base.
The sudden alarm caused chaos in the base, and a series of footsteps sounded outside the door, but no one planned to come to her room to take a look.
Outside the door of Lin Xi's room, a red light was shining with the words "Do Not Disturb" on it.
In the medical cabin, Chu Jungui opened his eyes, sounded the alarm, and then opened the medical cabin from the inside. The door opened and a young male doctor rushed in and said, "Lie down first and don't move!"
Before the medical hatch cover was fully opened, Chu Jungui had already sat up, spit out the nutrient solution, and said, "Send someone to Lin Xina quickly, she is in danger!"
The young doctor said: "Don't be nervous, lie down, and wait until I finish checking your body..."
Halfway through his words, he was suddenly startled when he saw Chu Jungui staring directly at him with cold eyes.
Chu Jungui said word by word: "Send someone to Lin Xina!"
The young doctor forced a smile and said, "According to the regulations, I have to confirm your physical condition first."
The last trace of warmth in Chu Jungui's eyes disappeared, and he said coldly: "You are looking for death!"
He suddenly reached out his hand from the medical cabin, grasped the young doctor's throat, and stepped out of the medical cabin.
The young doctor's face turned purple, his tongue was sticking out, and his feet were kicking unconsciously. However, he had already been lifted into the air by Chu Jungui, and his feet were completely in vain, and he could not use any strength at all.
Chu Jungui suddenly let go and turned to hold his shoulders. With a click, he had already crushed the young doctor's shoulder bones! The young doctor screamed like a killing pig and rolled on the ground. However, the nightmare was not over yet. Chu Jungui crushed his knee again. Even with modern medical technology, it is a bit troublesome to heal such an injury.
Chu Jungui ignored the doctor who was rolling on the floor, came to the door, and pulled off the switch of the entire alarm, which immediately made the alarm sound even more shrill. Then he opened the door and came to the corridor.
Three guards appeared at each end of the corridor. When they saw Chu Jun returning, several guards immediately pointed their guns at him and shouted: "Don't move, raise your hands, face the wall, and stand still!"
Chu Jungui's pupils shrank and he said coldly: "You dare to point a gun at me?"
The eyes of several guards suddenly blurred, and Chu Jungui had disappeared. One guard noticed that Chu Jungui appeared beside him, and the weapon in his hand was in his hand.
Ta-ta-ta-ta! The sound of gunfire continued, and Chu Jungui emptied a magazine in an instant. All five guards were shot in their limbs and joints, and then another bullet pierced their throats.
Chu Jungui put the gun in the hand of the only guard still standing. When he just saw himself, only this guard subconsciously lowered his gun.
Chu Jungui patted him on the shoulder and said, "There is a rebellion, but it's none of your business."
After saying that, his figure flashed again and disappeared at the end of the corridor, running towards the area where Lin Xi was.
