Chapter 445: Numbers

~8 min read 1,520 words

Merged into one.

Lin Xian thought he had misheard. His power armor turned on the recording function. Obviously, what Chen Yanxiu expressed represented that he might really have communication with the Dark Civilization. At least such a concept did not sound like something humans could think of.

From Chu Yan, Lin Xian knew that the Deep Red World was originally dominated by digital life and mechanical revolution, and after developing mycelium technology, it had extremely distorted changes in its concepts of life forms, abilities, and consciousness.

But what Chen Yanxiu said was clearly not what they were pursuing, but what they were waiting for.

"Sounds like you and the Dark Civilization have already had very intuitive communication?" Lin Xian looked at Chen Yanxiu and asked his question.

Chen Yanxiu smiled slightly upon hearing this, raised his hands, and did not answer Lin Xian's question directly, but said:

"Eliminate all suffering and tyranny, the world belongs to a more excellent civilization. You can choose to accept it, or you can choose to be eliminated by evolution. Captain Lin, please believe that this is not a slogan, nor does it involve any interests, hostility, morality, or value orientation, regardless of race and... country."

"Lin Xian, this guy seems to have been completely brainwashed." Kiki said directly at this time.

Lin Xian looked at the gentle middle-aged man in front of him, and upon hearing his words, he felt a blur for a moment, as if what was standing in front of him was not a human, but another strange race.

Why would there be such a feeling?

Lin Xian raised his eyes and suddenly found that his consciousness was a bit trance-like. The figure in front of him made a strange overlap. His first reaction was that the other party might be using some means, or he felt a very strange energy emerging from the other party.

So Lin Xian used the Heart of Machinery to cover him for the first time. He wanted to anchor what kind of taboo item was being activated on the other party, and whether this person had any constraints.

But strangely, his brain felt like it was subjected to some kind of chaotic strobe at this time. His vision began to distort. He saw Chen Yanxiu smiling, opening his mouth, and saying something in a voice that was far and near...

"It seems... you are also very obsessed with the power of taboo items. You must know that these are the Master's... gifts."

"Lin Xian!"

"Lin Dui!"

Seeing Lin Xian's face turn pale and swaying, everyone immediately realized that something was wrong. Kiki directly supported Lin Xian, and Shizhi, who felt the huge fluctuation of Lin Xian's mental power, panicked and immediately used her ability to cast on Lin Xian. But this time, when her ability was input into Lin Xian's spirit, a bottomless black hole appeared in front of her eyes and sucked her violently. The next moment, endless blood color in the darkness rushed toward her face, directly shaking Shizhi away.

"Ah..."

The mutation happened suddenly. Xiaoqing and Huo Ge beside him looked at Chen Yanxiu and attacked instantly!

"Fire Fist!"

"Shadow Slash!"

The two shouted softly, and the violent power arrived in an instant. Just in the gap, the sharpness had reached his throat, and the fire fist was already at his face.

Ka~

At this time, Chen Yanxiu suddenly opened his pocket watch. In his vision, all attacks seemed to be frozen and distorted at this moment. Then he looked at Lin Xian and said in a deep voice:

"We will meet again, Sword Bearer."

When he finished speaking, he took out another strange gear, and then his whole person disappeared from the spot.

At this moment, Lin Xian's consciousness was rising wildly. He felt an amazing speed taking him away from Blue Star. The space was getting darker and darker. When his gaze fixed, he suddenly found a huge artificial space device appearing in front of him—Nantian Sect!

Then, Lin Xian's consciousness directly penetrated the shell of Nantian Sect, crossed the passage, and crossed into Grace's flashing bullet communicator.

At this moment, he could clearly feel that he was forcibly pulled by the power of the taboo item, then broke through Nantian Sect, and headed toward the dark nebula in the depths of the universe.

I don't know how long it took, Lin Xian could no longer feel his location. There was only a vast darkness like an abyss in front of him. He tried his best to look, and it seemed that something was staring at him there, but he couldn't see anything.

At this time, in Lin Xian's vision, starlight was gathering. At first, he thought the universe was changing, but as time passed, he found that the starlight seemed to appear in his retina, because as his head turned, the starlight also synchronized. Then, the starlight gathered into some kind of lines, and finally, it turned into a string of numbers...

34:32:11

And the next second, the numbers became

34:32:10

"This is... a countdown?!"

Lin Xian was horrified. He shouted at the dark void:

"Who are you! What is your purpose in coming to Blue Star!?"

No response.

The universe seemed to be silent.

Lin Xian wanted to erase the numbers in his vision, but found it was useless. He could only watch the countdown flowing.

And the next moment, his consciousness suddenly began to fall and retreat. In an instant, he returned to the steel platform of the outlying island submarine base.

Hearing this plan, Lin Xian said decisively: "A level 1 mark is also a mark. In this range, we are all in an 'exposed' state to bizarre entities. Now Haiyan Island is besieged by various bizarre entities. Chasang Island is located on the far southeast side, which is the edge area far from the main island. Maybe it is the place with the least monster tides. If you run toward the main island or other directions with a level 1 mark, it is really making Haiyan Island completely explode. It is absolutely a bad strategy!"

Long-term fighting with darkness, Lin Xian had long understood a truth, that is, never have a fluke mentality when facing a crisis, let alone in the case of being marked by darkness. If you run away in other places and expect monsters to give up chasing, it is okay, but this place has long become a 'party' scene for monsters gathered in the surrounding sea area. Running around in this place is no different from holding a honey jar and drilling into a swarm of bees.

Hearing Lin Xian's words, Ryan also frowned. As the leader of a sea group, he of course understood that Lin Xian's analysis was absolutely reasonable, but the current situation was imminent, the situation was like a mountain collapse, and there was no better way.

"It won't work? Then what do you think should be done?!" Hearing Lin Xian refute Vanessa's suggestion, Erica immediately retorted: "Does Lin Dui have a better way?"

For these sea group members, it was impossible to clear the marks now, and although Vanessa's suggestion had risks, it was at least a chance, so they were all full of resentment and wanted to hear what this 'Sword Bearer' of the Phoenix Society had to break the situation.

"Of course!"

Just as Erica finished speaking, Lin Xian's voice sounded in everyone's communicator.

"The way is, before bigger monsters arrive, solve them all!"

Lin Xian was flying in the air at this time, looking at the distance in the storm, a giant black floating island was approaching like a sea wonder. Under the abyss cliff, the giant whirlpool was constantly rising, and he already had a plan in his heart.

"You..."

"Erica." Ryan interrupted Erica's reaction. He looked at Lin Xian's direction at this time and said loudly: "Lin Dui, what are you going to do?"

Bang!

Just then, all the propulsion devices on Lin Xian's power armor sprayed at full power, and the whole person rushed toward the high-altitude sea surface at supersonic speed. At the same time, Lin Xian's voice sounded in the communicator.

"Everyone who is marked, gather above the sea whirlpool with me."

Ryan heard this, a flash of complexity flashed in his expression, then took a deep breath without any hesitation, and said decisively: "Listen to Lin Dui, follow me!"

Ceng ceng ceng, instantly, dozens of marked Ryan team members all used power armor to fly into the sky, breaking through heavy insect tides, and gathered above the distant whirlpool sea area. At this time, those bizarre entities that swarmed from all directions also followed the dark mark and swarmed in, and the scene was very spectacular and terrifying.

"Lin Xian, what's wrong with you?" Kiki supported Lin Xian and asked hurriedly.

"It's okay."

Ning Jing looked down and frowned: "Why are they all dead?"

"It should be some kind of remote suicide device. This group of people... are not just armed personnel, but also researchers." Lin Xian's gaze narrowed: "It looks like they have all been silenced."
