Chapter 36 You should thank Newton

You can't walk upstairs by sliding. Fortunately, the fight in the corridor here created a huge commotion. Chen Chi stayed by the side for a while, and waited until all the guards at the entrance of the corridor were attracted, and then he got out of the invisible state and walked up the stairs. Go upstairs.

According to the sign at the intersection on the 17th floor, Chen Chi found the Sea of ​​Knowledge Research Institute, where he finally saw the traces of the battle, which was more tragic than imagined, blood flowed like a river, and there were broken limbs everywhere, just like the scene left by a herd of beasts raging , not even a single intact corpse could be found.

They were still chasing Ning Wan, so her body must not be here. Chen Chi silently mourned for these dead players, carefully avoiding the blood-covered ground, and slid into the research institute.

The institute was quiet, with paper documents scattered everywhere. It seemed that they had been attacked on the way to work, and some corpses fell on the ground could be seen inside.

Chen Chi first smelled the putrid smell of Tai Sui, and then smelled the stench of the corpse. His mental state was barely stable, but his nose couldn't take it anymore.

He covered his nose, shielded from external influences, felt it carefully, and finally smelled a special smell in the air.

Everyone has secrets, and different secrets have different smells. This smell seems to be a collection of a person's personality. The secret of the noodle shop owner has a strong fragrance, and the secret of the courier is the smell of sweat.

The secret I smelled this time was very special. It had the aroma of ink, like the smell you get when you buy a finely printed paper book and just open it.

In the age of the Internet, Chen Chi hasn't smelled this smell for a long time. He can be sure that this is Ning Wan's secret. She really hid in the research institute and never came out!
Following the direction of the smell, Chen Chi slid forward slowly and found a meeting room deep in the research institute.

There was a haggard old man standing at the door. He was holding the pot like the Unclean cultist seen earlier, but the pot in his hand was smaller and more delicate in appearance, giving people an invisible sense of oppression.

The old man squinted his eyes, as if he was sleeping, but suddenly opened them when Chen Chi approached, scanning his surroundings lazily.

Stared at by those sinister eyes, Chen Chiru was pricked by a needle, goose bumps all over his body, and his sanity began to decline slowly.

Losing your sanity just by looking at it?Tai Sui still has this ability?

There was a movement in the jar, and the old man realized something, and lifted the lid, allowing the scarlet tentacles to protrude from the edge and pierce into his palm.

There is not much information left by the Unholy God Sect on the forum, and the more unified description is "weird". At this moment, Chen Chi saw those tentacles burrowing into the old man's shriveled skin, swimming along his arms like earthworms, and finally disappearing into the black In the sleeve of the priest's robe.

"Is there any fish that slipped through the net? Yes, I will follow your will and remove all obstacles."

The laziness on the old man's face was wiped away and became as sharp as a hawk. He entered the corridor holding the can, as if he was not sure of Chen Chi's precise location, but just knew he was here.

This guy can guard here, he is definitely a ruthless character, Ning Wan can't deal with it, even if he sneaks in, he can't lead people out, so this nail must be solved.

After a little thought, Chen Chi decided to repeat the same trick, splashing laundry detergent on the side of the road ahead, and then tapped on the door on one side with his fingers.

"I've got you, you little mouse who only knows how to hide."

The shriveled old man turned around in an instant, and chased him at a speed that didn't fit his body shape, but the speed became a drag at this time. The moment he stepped on the laundry detergent, he realized that something was wrong, but his body reacted, and the laws of physics did not allow it.

Facts have proved that even mysticism has to obey the laws of physics—at least part of it. The old man slipped on his foot, and the whole person flew out, and the jar naturally fell out of his hand.

Chen Chi had been waiting for a long time. He slammed the two toilet pushers on the ground and slid over simultaneously, passing by the old man who was looking out of control.

The power of the followers of the Huishen Cult seems to come from Tai Sui, which means that the strength of each piece of Tai Sui is different, and may even have different abilities, so Chen Chi did not dare to let the jar fall to the ground and caught it.

Here I have to mention how strong the "Pure Passerby" buff is. Its mechanism is to prevent players from the neutral camp from being discovered. The same goes for the jar in his hand.

The old man never expected that the ground would be so slippery, and he fell like Chang Yu.

Being nourished by Tai Sui, even Lao Deng, who is nearly a hundred years old, will not be injured by falling. He turned around and wanted to pick up the dropped Tai Sui, but found that there was no sound of the jar falling to the ground, and even the jar itself disappeared. …

"...?"

There was a huge question mark written on the door of the old man's head. He turned his head in horror and found that the leechworms left in his body had also lost contact, which meant that Tai Sui had exceeded the sensing distance.

Where did it go?

"Come out if you have the guts, don't hide, once the old man catches you, he will surely tear you to pieces!"

The old man hissed and yelled in the corridor, but it was useless. Chen Chi had already thrown the jar into the garbage feeding port in the corridor, and only now turned back, and did not forget to give him a sleeping package.

"If there's a knife underneath, it's dead."

Chen Chi swung his hand towards the back of the old man's head, and with all his strength, the 5% probability of crushing the skull happened to be triggered, directly hitting his head until it was physically deformed, and fell asleep.

Having played a lot of games and read a lot of novels, Chen Chi knew very well that it was necessary to make up for the damage when defeating the villain. He didn't want to face an old man who was at full strength when he brought Ning Wan out, so he became cruel and made up for it again. After several wrenches, he stopped until his flesh and blood were bloody and entered the conference room.

As the distance got closer, the smell of books became more and more obvious. Chen Chi came to a bookshelf, followed the direction of the smell, and found the mechanism hidden under the book. With a light press, the bookshelf opened to both sides, revealing a secret passage. Wall lights on both sides provide a little lighting.

Chen Chi immediately entered the secret passage, found the button on the wall to close the door, then walked in along the wall lamp, and came to a room at the end. Ning Wan was sitting in it, holding a book in his hand. Not the way a trapped person should be.

However, Chen Chi's arrival surprised her, and Ning Wan wondered, "Why did you come here...why did your appearance change again?!"

"If you get the equipment, you have to wear it. It doesn't matter how you look, right?" Chen Chi said with a look of reason, "They got your phone and pretended to be your voice to trick me into going to the stronghold outside. Threatening to make you show up."

"As expected of the Unholy God Sect, even this kind of method can be used, but there is no sound from outside here, and it is useless to threaten me."

Ning Wan got used to his style, quickly recovered her usual expression, closed her book and got up.

"Thank you anyway, it's about time, let's go."

"Let's go, I've already dealt with the guard." Chen Chi said, "But you thanked the wrong person. You should thank Newton."

"Ah?" Ning Wan was confused by what he said.

 I said before that when I tested the waters, I talked about the heroine's problem, so I will mention it here.

  I said in the comment section that there is more than one heroine in this book, but everyone seems to have misunderstood. My heroine refers to the frequency and importance of appearances, and it does not mean that there will be emotional dramas. The same is true for other heroines.

  To use a metaphor, it is Machima in Chainsaw Man. She is definitely the heroine, but she and Denji have no emotional scenes, they just maintain a relationship of mutual use. The same is true for Ning Wan.

  The protagonist Chen Chi is a Sigma character, I will not let him fall into meaningless romance, everyone can rest assured.

  Any comments can also be put forward here, and I will consider them when I see them.
