The shield blocked the incoming Source Stone crystal, and Zhou Jinru used the broad back of the knife to break the spike at once, guiding the crystal cluster monster to rush in another direction. The bright light above his head flashed away, taking advantage of the enemy's slow movement. , the sharp blade smoothly cut it into two pieces.
The second crystal cluster monster was already in front of him. He suddenly staggered forward and almost fell. His breathing rhythm was disordered and his eyesight turned black.
After all, the current body is too fragile. Even if it maintains a normal diet, it cannot carry out high-intensity battles for a long time. It has now reached the point of exhaustion.
Zhou Jinru pursed his lips. His mask had long since disappeared, his hair was covered in dust, and his entire face had turned gray and black from sweat. Only his eyes were still bright.
He raised the shield in his hand to block the crystal cluster monster from hitting him head-on. He rolled on the spot, his body covered in dust. The moment he stood up, he swung his sword to fight back. The back of the blade hit the crystal cluster monster at the right time, resolving the momentary crisis. .
"It's a pity that there is no invincibility frame for rolling."
Zhou Jinru spat out the sand in his mouth and was about to fight back when he saw a figure coming out from behind him, knocking the crystal cluster monster backwards. He even caught up and easily smashed the enemy to pieces with one blow.
She has long blond hair shawl, a stern face, and a long dress and trousers that cannot hide her hot figure. She holds a war hammer in her hand, and the shadow of Aslan condenses above her head.
"Vina, why did you come in again?!"
Zhou Jinru looked at Wei Na in surprise, she shouldn't be here.
But Wei Na didn't say anything. She rushed over and gave him a warm hug, whispering in his ear: "How can you bear to let me watch you fight to the death?"
"Because I'm an asshole."
The two hugged each other and leaned on each other until the man let go of his hand a little weakly.
Wei Na supported Zhou Jinru: "Who made me like a bastard?"
"Did you just arrive?"
Zhou Jinru thought about it for a while. He entered the dream world exactly three days from the last time he entered it.
Wei Na looked in another direction: "Halfway through, I met someone who knew me, but I didn't know her."
Looking in the direction Wei Na pointed, Zhou Jinru saw a warlock holding a staff, it was Jingzhe.
"She knows you in this world, but she hasn't met in our world yet."
Zhou Jinru gave a simple explanation, but received a blank look from Wei Na.
"It turns out that you are so good at provoking girls in this world."
"It's not my fault it's too attractive."
He reluctantly explained. In fact, he couldn't even convince himself, so he had to find a way to change the topic:
"What time is it in reality?"
Vina answered as she walked: "Rhode Island has been shut down. It has been two days and one night since you entered the dream world. The medical department is trying to find a way to give you infusions to supplement your nutrition. Everyone is paying attention to when you wake up, Dr. Kelsi. She has been observing your vital signs. Anyway, before I came in, she said that you must have suffered a very difficult battle, and all the physical indicators remained high."
It turned out to be like this. No wonder he felt uncomfortable all over. Who would have thought that so much time had passed.
"This is the final moment. I will live with them or die with them."
Zhou Jinru did not mention the dead people again. He took a deep breath and frowned at the pain in his chest.
The concentration of Originium particles in the air was so high that it was painful for him to even breathe. One could only imagine what would happen to those who were still alive.
Wei Na clenched her war hammer and said firmly: "I will accompany you. This time, please don't think of leaving me."
"No, you have to live and come back alive. You are just a passer-by here, but I am different."
Zhou Jinru sighed: "I have established an inseparable connection with this place."
Seria jumped up high again, and landed another punch. The moment the fierce punch was thrown out, the buildings in front of her were like paper, shattered inch by inch, and collapsed into ruins. The Originium veins that drilled out of the ground They were even beaten to the point of retreat.
"Are we going to win?"
"No, everything has just begun."
Zhou Jinru smiled bitterly. He had noticed that the source of emotions deep underground was becoming more active.
The underground city shook again, and several gaps were torn open in the ground in multiple directions. The Originium veins that grew out stretched like tentacles in all directions. Its rapid expansion had another meaning in Zhou Jinru's eyes.
Escape!
The Source Stone veins are on the run!
Although Seria is powerful, she can easily defeat an Originium vein, but it is only a defeat and cannot cause devastating damage.
Zhou Jinru has not yet figured out that the Origin Stone veins will behave as if they are running for their lives. He can only be sure that this thing is indeed alive, but the form of life is not understandable by ordinary people.
A large number of Origin Stone monsters flooded into the city again, and this time, it was their turn to fight desperately.
Crackling!
An electric arc was fired from the tip of Jingzhe's staff, causing the Originium monster to smoke. It also detonated many Originium bombs buried underground. The entire street fell into chaos for a while.
Zhou Jinru dodged from the side and raised his shield to block the acid spray. Feeling that the light film on the shield was severely corroded, he reached out to grab Jingzhe's arm, but was shocked by the electric current.
"Jingzhe, retreat quickly!"
He shouted, stood behind Jingzhe, and protected her behind.
"Evacuate to where?"
Jingzhe's deep voice came from behind.
Zhou Jinru was stunned for a moment and then said: "Meet my people first, there is still a chance!"
Vina was cruising around, constantly killing enemies with her war hammer, and her leaping hammer was taking action one after another, killing the lowest-level Originium Insects in droves.
"Go on your own!"
Jingzhe fires electric currents continuously, and the attack power becomes more powerful every time. It can even kill large swaths of source stone insects. Even the crystal cluster monsters can't withstand two thunder and lightning spells.
"you!"
Zhou Jinru turned around and was so shocked that he couldn't speak. He saw a gap in the clothes on Jingzhe's back, and an Originium crystal grew out of it.
Jingzhe raised the staff in his hand high, and lightning instantly connected into a lightning net, strangling the monsters in front of him.
The power of Origin Stone skills has increased significantly. This kind of thing will only happen to the infected. They use the Origin Stone crystals in their bodies to enhance their own strength, just like... Jingzhe now.
Jingzhe, who had wiped out a large number of enemies, held up her staff and panted heavily. With every breath she took, she could inhale high concentrations of Originium particles into her lungs.
Zhou Jinru looked at the face that was both familiar and unfamiliar. The deep black source stone, like a magnificent obsidian, replaced her left eye.
