Chapter 160: Three Divine Men
Lin Chen and Xia Nuan had just finished cleaning up the enemy corpses outside the base when snowflakes suddenly began to drift in the sky,
the snowflakes becoming denser and denser, the temperature dropping sharply, and white mist could be seen between breaths.
"Why did it suddenly snow?" Xia Nuan wrapped her clothes tightly, couldn't help but shiver.
Lin Chen just wanted to answer, but found that the surrounding snowflakes suddenly stopped in mid-air, the sky turning black rapidly, as if covered by a huge black cloth, even the silhouettes of the distant ruins couldn't be seen.
Immediately after, time seemed to be frozen—the falling snowflakes suspended in mid-air,
the smoke from the base that hadn't dissipated also stopped flowing, even Xia Nuan's hand that was about to be raised was frozen in place.
Lin Chen was shocked in his heart, wanting to mobilize energy but found that his body couldn't move,
and could only watch three figures slowly descend from the black sky, standing in front of them.
The leader wore a silver robe, his whole body glowing with faint golden light, the system suddenly prompted,
【Detected "Child of the Universe" energy fluctuation, level far exceeding the current world limit.】
The person on the left wore a cyan long gown, surrounded by tiny light spots,
【Detected "Pet of the Great Dao" energy fluctuation, can control surrounding space rules.】
The person on the right wore a white Taoist robe, a transparent jade pendant floating above his head,
【Detected "Heavenly Dao Favored One" energy fluctuation, can affect the energy operation in the target's body.】
"Who are you?
What do you want to do?
" Lin Chen tried to speak, but found that his voice was also imprisoned. The Child of the Universe sneered,
raising his hand to wave toward Lin Chen, an invisible force hitting his chest,
Lin Chen instantly feeling the energy in his body disrupted, as if countless needles were pricking,
his body uncontrollably falling to the ground, a patch of blood instantly left on the snow. Xia Nuan was also hit by the Pet of the Great Dao's wave, falling beside Lin Chen, blood spilling from the corner of her mouth.
The blackened gene in Lin Chen's mind suddenly became restless,
【Let me out quickly! I can fight them!】
The blackened Lin Chen's voice carried anxiety, but no matter how he struggled,
Lin Chen couldn't feel any energy flow, even his consciousness beginning to blur.
The Heavenly Dao Favored One looked at them and said faintly: "Don't waste your effort, your energy has been sealed by me, even the special genes in your body cannot be activated."
Just at this moment, three new figures ran over from the distance, wearing coarse cloth clothes,
holding knives and axes in their hands. Lin Chen barely opened his eyes, recognizing them as the three people he had met in the abandoned town before, claiming to be from the "Water Margin" world—Lin Chong, Wu Song, Lu Zhishen. "How can you three be here?" The Child of the Universe frowned, clearly not expecting anyone to interrupt.
Lin Chong held a long spear and said coldly to the three: "Although this world is an apocalypse,
it cannot tolerate you outsiders being presumptuous." Wu Song raised his double knives,
and continued: "You freeze time, suppress others, you have already broken the rules, why don't you retreat quickly?" Lu Zhishen also added in a muffled voice: "Although we don't know where you come from, but if you dare to hurt these two, I will smash your bones with a Zen staff!"
The Child of the Universe's expression sank, just wanting to make a move, but was stopped by the Heavenly Dao Favored One: "This place is not suitable for staying long, we have more important things to do,
let them go first." After speaking, the three turned and flew toward the black sky,
quickly disappearing into the darkness. Following their departure, the black sky gradually faded,
returning to its original appearance, and the frozen time began to flow—the snowflakes suspended in mid-air continued to fall, but the temperature no longer dropped, just maintaining at several hundred degrees below zero.
Lin Chen and Xia Nuan finally could move, the two struggling to crawl up, the pain on their bodies still spreading.
Lin Chong walked over, handing over a bottle of medicine: "This is the medicine we found elsewhere,
applying it can reduce the pain." Wu Song also said: "Those people's strength is too strong,
you should be more careful in the future, if you have any needs, you can go to the abandoned temple in the east to find us."
Lu Zhishen patted Lin Chen on the shoulder: "I see you have a special power in your body, master it well, you will definitely be able to fight stronger enemies in the future."
After the three finished speaking, they turned and walked toward the distance, quickly disappearing into the wind and snow.
Lin Chen and Xia Nuan supported each other, returning to the base, and after applying the medicine,
the pain indeed reduced quite a bit. Tuan Tuan heard the movement, running out from the cat nest,
rubbing against their pant legs, making a "meow-meow" sound. Lin Chen picked up Tuan Tuan,
looking at the snowflakes gradually becoming smaller outside the window, and then looking at Xia Nuan beside him,
his heart breathing a sigh of relief—although he didn't know the purpose of the three people, the Child of the Universe, at least now, the world has returned to peace.
