Chapter 23 Sensory Enhancement
There are 2 minutes left in the time limit,
There are still four carriages waiting at the meeting point at the entrance of the town.
A large number of crazy townspeople chased here, and a small part of them naturally noticed Yi Chen who was approaching by the lake, and turned around to chase after him.
At this time,
The rear compartment of one of the carriages suddenly opened,
Stretching out an arm as strong as a stone pillar, it was Dagbert from [Northern Territory] who had cooperated before.
The blond-haired Edmund also sat aside, waving to Yi Chen.
"Isn't this William? Come on, we happen to be short of one person here."
Naturally, there is no need to refuse this critical moment related to the end of the assessment.
come forward quickly,
When Yi Chen stretched out his hand and touched Dagbert's palm... an unimaginable force came,
Without even making a jumping movement, the whole person has been pulled into the carriage.
Edmund, who was sitting by the side, closed the door simultaneously.
Now that the carriage was full, the driver did not wait any longer.
Snapped!
The reins lashed on the horse's back, and it drove away from this small town full of fishy smell.
Except for the four of them in the carriage,
There are also two raw faces, both in a wounded state... one has a bandage wrapped around his waist, and the other has a lot of skin and flesh on his right arm, and he is spraying medicine on the wound.
In comparison, Edmund's team suffered minor injuries.
Dagbert had a small bandage wrapped around his left upper arm,
Juliana was resting against the carriage, with one hand on the right side of her waist and abdomen, and she seemed to be slightly injured.
Edmund the blond had only an adhesive bandage like a Band-Aid on his cheek.
In contrast,
The unscathed Yi Chen naturally became the focus of everyone's attention.
Edmund leaned closer to his face and asked curiously:
"Mr. William, I'm a little curious~
The three of us killed almost all the way to the assembly point along the town center, and stopped and observed twice along the way, but we didn't find you at all.
Did it come from the lake? "
"Ah."
"How did you do it? There is a riot in the town, and the most dangerous thing is the lake that breeds pathogens... Basically no examiner will approach there at the last minute."
"It's just an accidental insight into the [Gap]."
"Is that so? It's amazing."
"By the way, how long will it take to get to the organization from here?"
Seeing that Yi Chen, who was reticent, took the initiative to ask, Edmund quickly explained:
"Generally, the place selected as the assessment point will not be too far from the organization... This is conducive to the monitoring of the test point and avoids unexpected situations.
We can reach the headquarters of the organization - the city of Zion (Zion) in a maximum of three hours. "
"Ah."
Yi Chen didn't ask any more questions,
Use this time to close your eyes and rest your mind, and recover from the remaining trauma on the spiritual level.
Simultaneously,
You can also pay close attention to the status of the little grape.
With the help of this operation at the bottom of the lake, although Little Putao has some selfish intentions, it can still be trusted as a whole.
creak creak ~
Plant roots are moving in the body, trying to touch the gestating little grape to check its status.
When it was about to get close, the roots of the plants all dispersed again.
"Forget it, let's not bother it..."
Put your hands in your pockets,
Leaning against the wooden walls of the carriage, getting ready for a good night's sleep,
But I found something left in my head, and I couldn't sleep no matter what,
As long as you close your eyes, you will think of that abyss laboratory and the untouchable unknown existence.
Since I can't sleep,
The inertial thinking of engineering students began to try to think about the root of the Green Lake Town incident.
"The real mastermind behind the scenes should be the unknown existence I saw by chance.
The giant eye at the bottom of the lake is just a product of his experiment.
Throwing this eye and some parasite samples into Green Lake Town... It's not so much a diseased invasion of the town, it's more like treating the town as a [farm].
Once high-quality patients are produced, they may be taken to the abyss.
It's terrible...
What kind of thing is this world dominated by? 』
Remembering the epic music of the sea, and the golden frame floating above the head of unknown beings,
Yi Chen showed a slight smile, eager to explore the secrets of this world.
……
about two hours passed
Suddenly there was a strong jolting sensation.
Simultaneously,
The carriage also gradually tilted upwards, obviously going uphill.
"Have you finally gone up the mountain? Ouch~ I'll be there soon, I'm really looking forward to it."
The blond-haired Edmund stretched his waist, and then went to open the back door of the carriage on his own initiative... The driver didn't say anything about such behavior.
As long as you go up the mountain, there is no risk of becoming ill.
At least for now.
The moment the carriage door was fully opened.
"Fuck! 』
The effect of fear of heights swept through Yi Chen's brain in an instant, and his eyes widened instinctively... Fortunately, he didn't sit in the outer seat, otherwise he would definitely be shocked.
current,
The carriage was driving up the extremely steep edge of the mountain road.
On the right is the cliff, with a visual height of more than 200 meters.
The most terrifying thing is,
The width of the mountain road is only less than ten centimeters more than that of a carriage.
The rolling wheels are almost grinding the edge of the road, and sideslips may occur at any time... Any ordinary person would feel instinctive fear, a fear of death.
however.
The rest of the examiners didn't change much in their expressions, and completely trusted the coachman's skills.
When the carriage rounded a bend between the cliffs,
hundreds of meters away,
Looking at the top of the cliff,
There stands a black city.
The city is built on the cliff, and even 1/3 of the area extends beyond the cliff.
There is a thick fog over the city, and some areas are even separated by a black film, which can effectively block outside prying eyes.
"This is [Zion]. 』
Do not know why,
When Yi Chen looked at the city, his body would automatically feel a sense of cold comfort, as if he had found a safe refuge in a world full of sores.
at this time,
Suddenly there was a commotion in the body.
The skin on Yi Chen's shoulders swelled rapidly, and black silk threads grew out of them.
Gently and painlessly tear open the skin,
Drill out the same black meat ball as before,
The neural connections between the two also returned to normal.
Then came the voice of Little Putao:
『Is it almost time to reach the organization?so fast. 』
"Little Putao, are you alright now?I thought it would take a few days. 』
"It's just a nice little meal, and it's enough to digest for a few hours... It's barely a good thing, and it has brought me a certain level of improvement.
Let you experience it too. 』
When Little Putao shared the newly upgraded visual features,
Between Yi Chen's vision screens,
There was an extra dotted circle symbolizing [Lock].
As long as any living target appears in the field of vision,
This dotted circle will automatically fall on the opponent,
current,
The blond-haired Edmund happened to be within Yi Chen's field of vision,
The dotted circle line is like self-aiming, immediately encircling the target's head.
After a second,
A dotted line fades to a solid line, meaning the lock is complete.
The voice of Little Grape came,
"Okay, the target has been locked!As long as you move the relevant thought, the mental radiation will directly act on it. 』
"what! ? 』
Yi Chen quickly looked away and blinked at the same time.
[Lock] will be released naturally.
The blond-haired Edmund seemed to sense that Yi Chen was peeking at him, but he didn't care at all.
