24 hours to save the world

The arena was surrounded.

When he heard the news, Zhu Shijiu was still waiting for his opponent in the arena room. However, what he didn't expect was that not long after waiting, a staff member came in and told him that the arena was surrounded by the Armed Defense Department, and the fighting was forced to be interrupted.

"It's so fast!"

Although the Arena was also surrounded by the Armed Defense Department in the last game, this time Zhu Shijiu was really surprised.

After he expelled Stinging Bee from the training base, he didn't waste time to do other things. Instead, he came to the arena without stopping to implement his plan to invite the strong ones to fight.

In other words, almost as soon as the Armed Defense Department learned of his actions, they made a decision extremely efficiently and quickly, without wasting any time.

"Are there any masters?"

Zhu Shijiu knew very well that this was not the work of Stinging Bee.

Although he had only fought against the Stinging Bee a few times, he also knew that the Stinging Bee would not act so openly unless he had full evidence. There is someone else behind the scenes of the Armed Defense Ministry.

Zhu Shijiu's invitation plan went bankrupt, and the Armed Defense Department made an almost perfect response, preventing him from showing his strength to more people. This was a very bad result, but he was not discouraged and walked out with his expression unchanged. Fighting room.

Arriving at the lobby on the first floor, Zhu Shijiu saw a large group of students gathered in the arena, some wearing masks and some not. Zhu Shijiu was still wearing a skull mask on his face. He came down from upstairs without causing any sensation and blended into the crowd naturally.

"What, why did you suddenly surround the arena?"

"That is to say, I was finally able to fight Zhu Shijiu, but suddenly this happened and it was interrupted... Tsk."

"Shh, shut up. Didn't you listen to what these black soldiers said? There are rebels among us! The Armed Defense Department now wants to find the traitors."

"Hey, rebels, you made a big fuss not long ago, and the organization hasn't cleaned up yet?"

"Haha, maybe you who are talking to me now are the rebels..."

"Hey, what did you say?!"

There was noisy discussion and the crowd was crowded in the lobby on the first floor. Zhu Shijiu finally understood what happened through the crowd's discussion.

As expected, the Armed Defense Department found an excuse to look for rebels and surrounded the arena just like last week.

Although this trick was simple, it was extremely effective. At least Zhu Shijiu couldn't think of a solution for a while.

What's the use of him being able to know the actions of the Armed Defense Department in advance? It is the duty of the Ministry of Armed Defense to investigate rebels and other unrest elements. Even if he drives other ministers to put pressure, it will be useless, because this time is different from the last time. It is not directly targeting him. In another sense, , the Ministry of Armed Defense further ensured his safety from the side - at least other ministers would think so.

The purpose of the Minister of Armed Defense's actions is very clear, it is nothing more than his battle video.

In the crowd, Zhu Shijiu watched helplessly as a group of black soldiers retrieved some information from the system at the front desk and transferred files with a USB flash drive. On the other side, the entrance and exit of the arena were also surrounded by black soldiers, thinking To go out, you have to take off your mask and identify yourself.

The complaining students could not stop the investigation by the Armed Defense Department, and one by one they lined up and left the arena.

Zhu Shijiu had a headache.

"Dark Underground Palace... Do we really want to enter that place again?"

Reluctantly, he looked back and saw a man with narrowed eyes standing next to the black soldier who was retrieving information at the front desk.

That was the guy I saw last week who claimed to be the Assistant Minister of Armed Defense.

…

After leaving the arena, Zhu Shijiu felt very solemn.

He had a vague hunch that the assistant minister of the Ministry of Armed Defense was a dangerous person.

This efficient siege of the arena might have been proposed by the assistant minister, and it was even his idea to let him enter the dark dungeon for testing. To be honest, it's a little tricky.

"In this case...I'm afraid I will really be forced to enter that dark underground palace again."

Plan A failed, and Zhu Shijiu came up with plan B.

Plan B has actually been considered before, that is, to find a way to acquire the sixth sense in a short period of time, so that one can fight like a fish in the dark dungeon, and the reversal ability can also be used. And how to get the sixth sense in a short time? There was actually an answer, it was already placed in front of him.

——Let Fu Sidu prepare a large amount of 199-β again, and then perform an overdose injection!

At present, those student experimental subjects are equivalent to voluntarily accepting a volunteer drug experiment, but whether there will be any subsequent adverse effects, neither Fu Si nor Zhu Shijiu knows, so they need to be observed. However, the conclusion that can be drawn so far is that "there are no obvious side effects and the effect of improving strength is obvious."

After all, the predecessor of 199-β compound, Compound No. 199, is a powerful compound that can transform an ordinary person with an unstrengthened body into a bug-man. Now that Fu Sidu has developed 199-β, it’s hard to believe that the drug can be so effective. As expected.

The reason why Zhu Shijiu has not personally injected 199-β is precisely because he is worried that 199-β will have irreparable side effects after being injected for a long time.

Therefore, Zhu Shijiu put it on plan B.

However, with the failure of plan A, he had to consider plan B, otherwise he would never be able to pass the test of the dark underground palace.

Zhu Shijiu knew from the last episode that the Armed Defense Department would come to him at night, and it was probably the same this time, so he still had a whole day to think about it.

He contacted Fu Sidu immediately.

"Hello? Where are you? Laboratory... Okay, I'll go find you right now. There's something that needs to be dealt with immediately... It's not convenient to talk on the phone, so let's meet directly."

After hanging up the phone, Zhu Shijiu hurriedly went to the logistics department to find Fu Sidu.

The two met soon. Fu Sidu was wearing a white coat and a mask on his face. After seeing Zhu Shijiu, he took off his mask and said, "What's the matter? I heard that the arena was surrounded. Is it related to this matter?”

Zhu Shijiu nodded in distress: "It's related."

After that, Zhu Shijiu told the story about the Dark Underground Palace. The source of the news was the mysterious "Chess Club" and explained his troubles: "...To put it simply, the Dark Underground Palace test is quite It’s dangerous, and even I’m not sure of winning, so I want to inject 199-β immediately to increase my chances of winning.”

Fu Sidu did not object or dissuade, but stated the risks of the matter: "The side effects of 199-β are not clear yet. If you are in urgent need, at least you have to wait until I know the side effects of 199-β before I can inject you. Otherwise, It’s easy to go wrong.”

Zhu Shijiu said: "We have no time. The Armed Defense Department will come to me tonight at the latest."

Fu Sidu said simply: "We can't use slow and secret observation. I need to conduct a full set of examinations on the students who have been injected with 199-β. If I can examine their bodies, I can confirm the compound as quickly as possible." Are there any side effects?"

Zhu Shijiu thought for a moment. The reason why they used secret observation before was because they didn't want to draw too much attention to the organization, but now that they are being targeted, even if they don't do this, the Armed Defense Department may have already locked onto Fu Sidu.

Zhu Shijiu made a decisive decision: "Okay, then at noon at the earliest, where do I need to send people?"

"My dormitory room has a full set of physical examination equipment." After Fu Sidu answered, he added, "It is best to have samples from both men and women. There should not be too many people, just two or three."

Zhu Shijiu nodded, waved and left.
