Chapter 1077: As long as you are fast enough, danger can't catch up to you!

~7 min read 1,317 words

The scenery on the second underground floor was vastly different from the first floor.

The walls were equipped with white metal plates, and the floor and ceiling were arranged with plates containing countless holes.

Seeing this, Su Yang couldn't help but think of the trial checkpoint when he first entered this world.

At that time, he deeply understood the terror of the trial.

Especially the laser beams; touching them even slightly would burn off a whole piece of skin.

Now that Lian Shiqi had given a preventive shot in advance, Su Yang couldn't help but feel a sense of seriousness.

"Is this the place?" Su Yang asked.

Lian Shiqi nodded. "Compared to the first checkpoint, the difficulty and danger of this checkpoint are several grades higher."

"Everyone must be careful!"

Su Yang asked: "How much do you know about the specific content of the checkpoint?"

Lian Shiqi looked deeply at the gate at the end of the passageway and said: "I'm the same as you, this is my first time here; my understanding is almost zero."

"I just know that the Blue Whale Company's traps are always famous."

"There is no pattern at all; it's purely up to luck."

To this, Su Yang searched for a while but didn't find the main switch.

In his view, this thing must have a main switch and a power supply system.

As long as either of them was cut off, everyone could pass safely.

At this time, Lian Shiqi said: "Stop looking; the main switch and the circuit breaker are in the fourth underground floor laboratory."

"The current responsible for output is hidden in the rock layer; if you have time, you can dig."

"But compared to the traditional stupid method, I prefer to just break through."

After speaking, she didn't hesitate, her right leg slowly moving backward.

Her body leaned forward, her arms swinging with her legs.

Looking at her posture of a hundred-meter sprint, everyone was stunned.

"You first?" Su Yang raised an eyebrow.

"Such dangerous things, of course, must be done by me!" Lian Shiqi winked at Su Yang, then rushed out with a serious face.

"Beep, beep, beep—"

The moment her soles stepped onto the metal plate, the alarm sounded.

"Warning, intruders detected, system automatically initiates clearing work!"

As the emotionless mechanical voice sounded, the holes in the metal bricks under their feet immediately fired red lasers!

"Sss—"

Thousands of laser beams blocked the way, leaving only gaps of less than ten centimeters.

Seeing this, everyone was shocked.

"How to pass with it so narrow?"

Zhuang Wu picked up a stone from the wall and threw it in.

The stone fell in a parabolic arc; the moment it touched the laser beam, it was instantly cut in half.

Seeing this familiar scene, their gazes became serious.

Lian Shiqi was right.

Compared to the mecha soldiers that had consciousness and could move freely, these things were obviously more dangerous.

Laser beams had no substance; they were just a pure, extreme high temperature.

No matter how sturdy an object was, it would be ruthlessly pierced and melted.

Yet, in such a dangerous space, Lian Shiqi dared to do no work.

She didn't even probe and just rushed in?

"Could it be she has a trick?" Wang Defa was curious.

Soon, Lian Shiqi gave the answer with her actions.

She was like a butterfly dancing, her body avoiding the lasers like soft silk.

The first half of the two-hundred-meter passageway was full of laser beams, dense and terrifying to look at.

Just as she was going smoothly for thirty meters, an "absolute forbidden zone" suddenly appeared in front.

The lasers shot vertically into the holes in the ceiling, with gaps of only ten centimeters adjacent to each other.

There were no blind spots!

Seeing this, Lian Shiqi hesitated for only half a second before resolutely making a decision.

She held her hands together, a cold, chilling light flashing in her eyes.

"Does she want to..." Yue Lan frowned.

Lian Shiqi gave a deep shout, and her body was immediately covered with a hazy halo.

Under everyone's surprised gaze, she actually touched the laser beam with her bare hands.

"What?!" Zhuang Wu exclaimed.

However, the scene of flesh and blood flying that they imagined didn't appear.

Lian Shiqi's fingers successfully touched the beam and applied a little force to forcibly pull it apart.

And her fingers were unscathed!

"This is..." Su Yang raised his eyelids slightly. "'Resistance'?"

Absolutely resisting everything from touching one's body.

It had the same effect as "Rebound"!

But essentially, it was led by the self.

Looking at her god-like performance, people's cognition was refreshed.

They never thought it could be played like this.

"This is too shameless; the researchers below must be furious seeing this scene." Zhang Tiancheng suddenly smiled with relief.

No wonder she dared to be the first to go up.

And no wonder she dared to do no attempts.

It turned out all her confidence came from her own talent.

At this very moment, Lu Qing was very curious.

How would "Resistance" perform when facing a laser gun?

Soon, Lian Shiqi passed through the first half by "cheating."

There were no restrictions in the second half.

However, she stopped and didn't blindly go deep.

Sure enough, the moment her figure completely stopped, the metal plate in front suddenly spat out a thick green toxic gas.

Instantly blending into the air.

Seeing this scene, everyone's expression changed.

"Retreat quickly!"

"Wait, don't panic!" Su Yang raised his hand to signal them to stay calm.

"Boss, you..." Zhuang Wu just prepared to speak, and saw Lian Shiqi standing still.

Like a wall, she "resisted" all the scattered toxic gas outside.

Not letting it advance even an inch.

"Extension of talent?" Yue Lan saw the clue.

"Also called an entry." Su Yang nodded slightly.

Players with entries were not in the minority.

Lian Shiqi's "self-sacrificing" performance was truly strange.

But the problem was.

She blocked the toxic gas—

What about the people behind?

They still had to pass this checkpoint eventually.

If she passed, the people behind would suffer.

But if she didn't leave, the second person to advance would also suffer.

Seeing this, Su Yang looked at Zhuang Wu and said: "You go!"

"Me?" Zhuang Wu pointed at himself incredibly, his eyes wide.

"Yes, just you." Su Yang nodded.

Zhuang Wu was suddenly a bit messy.

How could he have the ability to break through?

Su Yang shouted at Lian Shiqi: "Miss Lian, please retreat to the laser area and help pull open a gap!"

Lian Shiqi's ears moved, and she tucked her messy hair behind her ears.

Then she retreated to the original position, while "resisting" the toxic gas, she reached out to pull the laser apart.

Her body tilted slightly, leaving enough room.

Seeing this, Su Yang turned to look at Zhuang Wu and said meaningfully: "It's your turn to perform."

"Ah?" Zhuang Wu's brain still hadn't turned the corner.

Su Yang explained: "As long as you are fast enough, the toxic gas can't catch up to you."

"Besides, you can just help see what other traps are behind, so we can prepare in advance."

"So, this arduous task..."

"I'll leave it to you!"

Before Zhuang Wu could speak, Wang Defa also said solemnly: "Come on, Xiao Wu, I believe in you!"

Wen Ran also cast an encouraging and affirmative look at him.

Seeing the affirmation of the people around him, Zhuang Wu felt huge pressure.

He wanted to cry in his heart; how did a heavy burden suddenly fall on his shoulders?

Weren't they supposed to watch the show together?

But the situation was stronger than the person; even if Zhuang Wu was afraid in his heart, he couldn't retreat.

To this, he gritted his teeth and nodded: "Alright, since only I can do it, then I will..."
