I do not know how long it has been.
Lin An gasped for breath and stared at the pale Chu An.
A long while.
He looked at Colonel Chu with dim eyes, and then let go of his hands holding the collar in despair.
In the room filled with blue light, Lin An stood and Chu An lay.
The two of them were like static sculptures.
As the slight mechanical vibration sounded again, the metal plate that originally contained the Immortal Shura slowly descended and was retracted to the spiritual core to maintain confinement.
After the sound rang.
Chu An, who looked pale and seemed to be in collapse, struggled to hold himself up:
"Lin An."
"That's all I have to say."
"I'm tired..."
After that, he struggled to get up from the ground, his body swaying.
Sweat soaked through his crisp uniform, causing a thin layer of fog to form on his lenses.
Lin An stood there motionless in silence.
He watched in silence as Chu An staggered out of the room and onto the lifting platform without any intention of helping.
In my mind, countless possibilities flashed through my mind.
As Chu An speculated, it was true that the copy of [Amoeba] was extremely difficult and could even lead to his own death.
But others may not be.
The threat of death made Lin An extremely irritable.
If even his life is in danger, what about Mo Ling and others who went to the dungeon together?
It was clear that Chu An seemed to know something, but his answers were strangely wrong.
Can't you say it?
Lin An only felt like a fish in a fish tank.
The reality of the world seemed to be separated from him by a layer of transparent glass.
Obviously he can see it, but he can't.
The rockery and artificial grass in the fish tank created a false reality for him.
And Chu An is the spectator outside the fish tank. He clearly knows something, but he keeps deceiving himself.
Combined with Chu An's performance of wanting to say something but not saying it.
Lin An couldn't help but think of Huang Shaohua in the crystal ball.
Could it be.
Chu An...
Also, the players who stayed from the last reincarnation?
So Chu An didn't care at all after seeing Huang Shaohua?
Or, just like his most extreme inference, Chu An is also a reborn person?
It was just the words Chu An kept repeating that made him unsure.
(Ants cannot see...)
(All your guesses are wrong...)
irritable.
Lin An felt like there was a stone pressing on his heart, like a huge black cat pressing his head tightly.
As the motor rotated slightly, Chu An struggled to hold on to the elevator, slowly rose up, and disappeared into the underground floor.
The quiet psychic core came out, and Lin An let out a deep breath.
Under the blue spiritual energy, his face was covered with a blue light.
Either guess is meaningless.
If Chu An didn't tell him, he couldn't kill him.
Maybe.
Chu An also has his own difficulties?
What does the copy of [Amoeba] have to do with Immortal Shura?
Why does Chu An repeatedly emphasize death and rebirth?
In silence, Lin An stood straight on the spot, staring at the psychic core at his feet and thinking.
[Amoeba] Is it extremely dangerous?
So much so that the system feels that it must die...
What does Chu An want to express?
When the cigarette is lit, the sparks flicker on and off.
.....
Long'an base, outside the core fortress.
With a smile on her face, Wen Ya led Fan Bing through the crowded base avenue.
The buildings on the ground and around are all "luxury" and built with regular land.
Although Fan Bing didn't know the purpose of the Land of Rules, she could clearly feel that the black-gold alloy plate under her feet was expensive to make.
A faint amount of psychic radiation pours into the body, slowly improving the physical quality.
Somewhat surprised.
She looked at the sci-fi-like creations in the base with a look of amazement, as if she was in an alien base.
There are no tall buildings, but various technological facilities are neatly distributed inside the base.
It was approaching evening, and the city wall under construction at the end of the line of sight was still in full swing.
Wen Ya smiled and softly introduced the various buildings in the base.
Although many construction facilities are still under planning, construction prototypes have been reserved in advance.
Fan Bing looked at the huge base and felt a little excited.
Even though the base has not yet been completed, it is far beyond her imagination.
The training slogans that sounded from time to time and the awakened ones patrolling near the city wall gave her a great sense of security.
She even saw many elderly people walking leisurely and chatting in the base, which was peaceful and full of vitality.
If she hadn't just come here from the outside world, she would have thought that she had traveled to a future world where the apocalypse had not yet broken out.
There is no urgency, no threat.
Everything is in order.
Wen Ya noticed Fan Bing's eyes and was not surprised.
The zombies near the base have been cleared away, and the patrol team formed by the awakened ones is on guard around the clock 24 hours a day.
A large amount of advanced individual soldier equipment is distributed to everyone.
The newly formed special operations team is armed to the teeth.
Under the "moisture" of the land of rules, ordinary people in the base are improving their physical fitness every day.
There is plenty of food, strong firepower, and there are powerful awakened ones stationed there.
Not to mention the survivors like Fan Bing who joined from the outside world, even the resource team who went out from the base would feel like they were in another world every time they came back.
With Zhuanxu helping to build the place of rules, the base looks almost different every day.
While sighing, Fan Bing felt for the first time like a mountain man entering the city.
She pointed at the sandworms that had emerged from the ground not far away with some fear, wondering:
"Miss Wen Ya, then...what is that!?"
If she hadn't seen many construction workers wearing engineering hats surrounding the sandworm, she would have thought it was a mutant coming in.
A monster this big must be at least level two...
Wen Ya smiled lightly, and just as she was about to explain, there were heavy footsteps behind her.
"That's the second-level monster that Master Lin An has subdued, Sandworm Bo Yeduo."
"Specially used to dig reservoirs and build underground facilities."
The boy wearing a black combat uniform with the Long'an Base logo on his sleeves replied with pride.
Fan Bing looked back when he heard the sound and saw a twelve-member, fully armed special operations team appearing behind him.
Assault rifles, grenades, night vision goggles, pistols, grenade launchers.
Almost from head to toe, armed to the teeth.
Especially the advanced design from the weapons testing laboratory makes the equipment on these people full of cutting-edge technology.
This was more advanced than the military region troops she had seen before.
A bit exaggerated.
Fan Bing glanced in disbelief at the giant sandworm trying to dig a hole, and then at the soldiers who looked like just students?
I didn't know what to say for a long time.
Subdue a second-order mutant just to use it as a tool to dig holes?
Somewhat appalling...
The special operations team patrolling and training also looked at her curiously.
The team first greeted Wen Ya cautiously, and then kept looking at the beautiful woman in front of them.
"Who are you.."
"Fan Bing!?"
