Chapter 119
The armored vehicle drove toward Chengxi, Lin Chen repeatedly tried to mobilize the Absolute Zero ability,
but there was always only a trace of weak coolness at his fingertips, completely unable to condense cold air. He asked the system: "System, where is the specific location of the 'X' remnants? What type of special instrument are they carrying?
【Detected target is located in the abandoned research institute in Chengxi, the instrument carried is an energy suppression removal device, can be used to clear the black energy in the host's body, but the instrument needs a specific password to start.】 The system replied.
Xia Nuan held the steering wheel, looked at the road ahead and said: "We've been to the abandoned research institute once before,
the structure inside is complex, if they hide inside and set an ambush, it will be very troublesome." Lin Chen nodded: "We'll observe from the periphery first, don't go in directly, formulate a plan after confirming their number and position."
Forty minutes later,
the armored vehicle stopped in the woods near the abandoned research institute. Lin Chen and Xia Nuan got out of the car, borrowed the cover of trees, and approached the research institute. The outer wall of the research institute was covered with vines,
the gate was half-hidden, and it was pitch black inside. Lin Chen turned on his mobile phone flashlight,
and asked the system: "System, detect the number and distribution of people in the research institute, are there any traps?
【Detected 10 people in the research institute, 5 in the first-floor hall, 3 in the second-floor instrument room, 2 in the underground warehouse, no obvious traps detected, but there are surveillance devices in the first-floor hall.】 The system finished replying.
"Solve the surveillance on the first floor first, then approach the hall quietly." Lin Chen took out a silenced pistol from the infinite space,
handed it to Xia Nuan: "You are responsible for taking out the surveillance, I will attract the attention of the people in the hall,
and solve them one by one after they disperse." Xia Nuan took the pistol, nodded, circled to the side of the research institute,
found the position of the surveillance camera, pulled the trigger, the bullet hit the camera accurately, and the surveillance failed instantly.
Lin Chen took the opportunity to rush into the first-floor hall of the research institute, the 5 people inside were sitting around a table,
seemingly discussing something. Seeing Lin Chen, they stood up immediately,
one of them shouted: "It's Lin Chen! Quickly notify the people upstairs!" Lin Chen didn't give them a chance, raised the Purple Lightning Purification Gun, fired at the person at the front,
the armor-piercing bullet hit his chest, and the man fell on the spot.
The remaining 4 hurriedly picked up weapons to counterattack, and bullets shot toward Lin Chen.
Lin Chen hid behind a pillar and asked the system: "System, have the people on the second floor come down? Is there any movement from the people in the underground warehouse?
【3 people on the second floor have started to go downstairs, 2 people in the underground warehouse have no movement, expected to reach the first floor in 1 minute.】 The system replied.
"Xia Nuan,
you circle from the side to the second-floor stairwell,
stop the people coming down!
" Lin Chen shouted to the communicator, while rushing out of the pillar, firing continuously at the people in the hall.
Xia Nuan immediately acted according to the plan, ran to the second-floor stairwell, saw 3 people running down,
she raised the sniper rifle, hit the leg of the person at the front, the man screamed, fell on the stairs, blocking the way of the two behind.
Lin Chen soon solved the 4 people in the hall and ran toward the second-floor stairwell.
At this time, Xia Nuan had already solved the other 2 people and was standing at the stairwell waiting for him.
"First floor solved, are there still 3 people in the second-floor instrument room?" Lin Chen asked. Xia Nuan shook her head: "The 3 people who just came down were from the instrument room, all solved, now only the 2 people in the underground warehouse are left."
The two walked toward the underground warehouse, there was an iron door at the entrance of the warehouse, locked with an electronic lock.
Lin Chen asked the system: "System, can you crack this electronic lock?
【Cracking the electronic lock, expected to be completed in 30 seconds.】 The system replied,
30 seconds later, the iron door opened with a "click". Many boxes were piled up in the warehouse, 2 people were hiding behind the boxes, hearing the movement, immediately raised their guns and fired at the entrance.
Lin Chen and Xia Nuan hid outside the door and asked the system: "System, is there any way to make the people in the warehouse come out?
【Can release smoke bombs, forcing them to leave the cover of the boxes, already called up smoke bombs from the infinite space.】 The system replied, a smoke bomb landed in the warehouse,
and soon thick smoke permeated. The 2 people in the warehouse coughed, had to walk out from behind the boxes, and ran toward the entrance.
Lin Chen and Xia Nuan took the opportunity to fire and kill the two. After clearing the warehouse, Lin Chen and Xia Nuan returned to the second-floor instrument room,
where there was indeed a silver instrument, the screen displaying complex code,
which was exactly the energy suppression removal device. Lin Chen walked to the instrument,
and asked the system: "System, what is the password to start the instrument? How to operate it to clear the black energy in my body?
【The password is the identity identification code of 'X', already cracked by the system, can start the instrument directly, the host needs to place his palm on the energy sensing area of the instrument, the instrument will automatically release the removal energy, clearing the black energy, the process is about 5 minutes.】 The system replied.
Lin Chen followed the system's prompt, placed his palm on the sensing area, the instrument screen lit up,
emitted a soft blue light, and a warm energy passed into his body along his palm.
He could clearly feel that the black energy in his body was being slowly wrapped and dissolved by this warm energy. Xia Nuan stood beside him,
looking at him nervously: "Is there any discomfort?" Lin Chen shook his head: "It's okay, it feels very comfortable, the black energy is decreasing."
5 minutes later,
the instrument screen displayed "Removal Complete", Lin Chen withdrew his palm, tried to mobilize the Absolute Zero ability,
and a cold air instantly condensed at his fingertips, thicker than before. "Ability restored!
" Lin Chen said excitedly, released a cold air toward the table beside him, and the table was frozen instantly.
Just then, the research institute's communicator suddenly rang, Lin Chen pressed the answer button,
and a strange voice came from inside: "You think it's okay after solving 10 people?
Lord 'X' had long expected you to come, the self-destruction program of the research institute has been started, it will explode in 3 minutes, just wait to die together!"
Lin Chen's expression changed abruptly, shouted to Xia Nuan: "Run! The research institute is going to explode!" The two immediately ran toward the gate of the research institute, just ran out of the gate, behind them...
