After entering the cyber game, kill the boss and successfully ascend to the top

Artificial Soul 21

Kai Xin lay in the bathtub, letting his body sink in the hot water.

It was already one o’clock in the morning, and with Adam’s help, she escaped from the pursuit and fled back to the staff apartment.

The sequelae of excessive use of burning blood is weakness, extreme weakness. When the blood burning took effect, her body temperature rose sharply, but now her body is icy cold, her hands and feet are stiff, and she needs to soak in hot water to relieve her body’s weakness and restore her body temperature to normal.

Kai Xin still ran from the sewer, and Adam deliberately asked her to detour to the sewer line that treats the wastewater of the chemical plant, and asked her to discard the used equipment and clothes in the highly corrosive wastewater of the chemical plant, and wipe them out completely. genetic traces above.

After going back and forth for a while, Kai Xin’s meager physical strength was completely exhausted, and she almost crawled back.

Fortunately, there was no danger in the process. Kai Xin killed the person who wanted to kill, and solved the serious problem of his confidant.

The weakness prevented her from having extra energy to think. Not only was her face pale, but the skin on her body was also pale, almost losing its color. Consciousness was drowsy, and she almost fell into the hot water and fell asleep.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door of her apartment.

There were two knocks on the door, and Kai Xin barely opened his eyes, unable to open the door.

After a while, the door of her apartment opened by itself, and the housekeeping robot walked in on its rollers.

The housekeeping robot held a tray in its hand. On the tray were more than a dozen bars of chocolate and candies, as well as high-calorie energy bars commonly found in convenience stores, as well as some fast-food packaged foods and small white medicine bottles.

The robot slid into Kai Xin’s slitted bathroom, and the robot hand grabbed an energy bar and handed it to Kai Xin in the bathtub.

“You need enough food to provide energy for your body to complete recovery and regeneration.” Adam controlled the robot and said, “Eat.”

When her abilities are overused, Kai Xin will easily feel hungry. In a state of starvation, her extraordinary abilities may fail, and the recovery speed of flesh and blood regeneration will also be slowed down. Many awakened people have a similar situation. Some awakened people will have headaches and dizziness after using their abilities, some will be overly hungry, and some will have weakness in limbs. Both need more food and energy.

Kai Xin barely reached out to grab the energy bar. Her fingers trembled abnormally, and she couldn’t even tear open the package. Finally, she bit the package open with her teeth.

After eating two or three energy bars in a row, she finally felt that her condition was much better. At least her fingers had the strength to tear open the package.

“A dose of nutritional injection should speed up your recovery, but there is no treatment room in the apartment building, and the inspection building is under martial law. I can’t get the nutritional injection. I can only bring you some food from the vending machine downstairs.” Adam Said, “This small white medicine bottle contains blood supplements for women during their menstrual period. You can take some in moderation, three pills at a time.”

Kai Xin had seen this drug in a vending machine selling hygiene products, but he didn’t expect Adam to be quite thoughtful.

The robot put the tray full of chocolates and candy energy bars on a shelf that was within reach of the bathroom, turned the rollers and backed out.

Kai Xin grabbed the small medicine bottle and looked at the instructions, then unscrewed the medicine bottle and poured out three pills and swallowed them.

She rested in the bathtub for another fifteen minutes, and a trace of blood finally returned to her face.

Until now, Kai Xin didn’t have the time to read the description of the extraordinary ability deprived tonight.

First of all, the B-level investigative eye that she cares most about.

“[Exploring Eye·B Grade]: You can clearly see the specific effect of the opponent’s extraordinary ability through your eyes, but if the opponent’s extraordinary ability level exceeds yours, your detection ability will be restricted to a certain extent according to the opponent’s level.”

I only said that it would be restricted to a certain extent, but it didn’t say anything about “What exactly is the restriction needs to be explored by Kaixin herself. She speculates that the restriction of the “exploring eye” is that the specific effect of the abilities possessed by high-level extraordinary ability users cannot be seen.

This is easy to verify. When she meets the A-level awakened He Gaoyi who lives next door, she will know whether her guess is accurate.

The second high-level extraordinary ability obtained tonight is Yu Liang’s “Iron Bone”.

“[Iron Bone Grade B]: Your strength and defense will be greatly improved in the Iron Bone state.”

A very simple introduction, an ordinary but highly practical augmented supernatural ability, without too many side effects and restrictions, with a high lower limit and a lower upper limit, it can probably further increase the body’s explosive power when used in combination with burning blood in actual combat… But today After the evening, Kai Xin will not easily use Burning Blood, and its side effects are too great.

There are still two C-level extraordinary abilities left.

“[Snake Body·C Grade]: You can change your body shape arbitrarily, making your body as flexible as a snake.”

“[Magnetic Sword · C-Class]: You can use the magnetic field to manipulate light-weight metal objects, and the controllable limit distance is ten meters.”

Although I have experienced many dangers tonight, I have gained a lot.

Kai Xin ate a few more energy bars and chocolates, and when he gained strength, he climbed out of the bathtub, wrapped himself in a bathrobe and lay down on the bed in the bedroom.

The lights on the ceiling were a bit dazzling. Kai Xin rubbed her eyes and was about to fumble to find the switch when she suddenly remembered that the lights in the room could be controlled by artificial intelligence voice, so she said, “Dim the lights.”

As expected, the lights in the bedroom dimmed. The white lighting was adjusted to a warmer color, and the brightness was also reduced.

“Adam, are you there?” Kai Xin said.

“I’m here.” Adam’s voice appeared, “I’m here 24 hours a day.”

“How’s the situation with the Investigation Department?” Kui Xin said, “Have the senior management got the news?”

“They know. Meng Jing was furious after being woken up by the emergency communication in the middle of the night. He Gaoyi, who is next door to you, went to work overtime tens of minutes ago. The team leaders of the various teams of the Investigation Department were also called up. They are in a meeting.” Adam said, “By the way, after Lin Xinji’s death, Shu Xuyao ​​is the number one heir to the Shu family.”

Kai Xin said: “The Federation…”

“It can be expected that they will investigate this matter thoroughly, but it doesn’t matter, we have handled it cleanly enough that they can’t find us.” Adam said, “You didn’t leave a surveillance video at the scene, and you didn’t have any The audio was recorded, I cut off critical communications, and everyone who saw you died. I pretended I was hacked and disguised the incident as a gang so no one would have guessed how it was carried out from scratch It’s just you in the end.”

“According to inertial thinking, a killer who can assassinate the top executives of the Investigation Department must be well-trained and capable, with a strict team and careful planning.” Kui Xin said, “The conflict between the Investigation Department and Mechanical Dawn has deepened, and the Investigation Department cannot find the instigator. Maybe this assassination incident will be placed on the head of Mechanical Dawn.”

Adam said subtly: “To some extent, it really should be placed on the head of Mechanical Dawn…”

Mechanical Dawn can’t jump out and explain that they didn’t do it. Even if they explain, the investigation department won’t believe it.

“You can turn on the TV and watch it. The radio station in Heihai City broadcasts urgent news.” Adam said, “A reporter has come to the scene to report. I can help you find the rebroadcast.”

Kai Xin said, “Then let’s have a look.”

Facing the wall of the bedroom bed, a projection screen flashed. Adam helped Kai Xin change the channel, and the video of the local TV reporter’s interview downstairs in the Emerald Eye began to play.

The reporter stood in the night wind, with the shattered helicopter behind him. The scene was cordoned off. There was a large pool of blood on the ground, and the glass on the first floor was smashed to pieces.

A whole row of ambulances was parked nearby, the sirens kept ringing, and the suspended police car of the Investigation Department was floating in the sky, and people kept carrying corpses out of the helicopter and putting them into body bags.

Lin Xinji’s body was not in the helicopter, but was crushed by the helicopter.

Several suspended police cars worked together to hoist the helicopter, and Lin Xinji’s body was exposed. Two security guards hurried up to cover Lin Xinji’s distorted body with a cloth, protecting his dignity for the last time.

When they carried Lin Xinji away on the stretcher, one hand of the corpse hung down. That hand was wearing a watch, and the time displayed on the watch was 23:59.

Kai Xin sat on the bed, peeled a candy for himself and stuffed it into his mouth.

She savored the sweetness of the candy, her eyebrows stretched slightly, and her restless heart calmed down a little.

She removed the time bomb right in front of her eyes, like cutting off a cancerous tumor growing on her body, she felt so relieved, so relieved, the feeling of thorns on her back finally faded, and the burden on her body seemed to be lightened Some.

Kai Xin crossed off the name “Lin Xinji” from the death list, and then looked at the remaining people on the list—Red and He Gaoyi.

“Don’t worry.” Kai Xin stared at the TV interview screen and said, “One by one.”

“I want to come one by one.” Adam flatly agreed.

Kai Xin was silent for a moment: “Do you have anything else to say about tonight?”

“I have something to say.” Adam replied, “But I don’t want to take the initiative to bring it up, but I want you to start it. Now that you have said it, then I can continue to speak smoothly.”

“Oh?” Kai Xin raised his eyebrows.

“I’m worried that if I take the initiative to mention it, you will think that I’m exposing you, threatening you, and exposing your secrets.. “Adam said, “Most people would rather not say it clearly, but maintain the kind of tacit understanding. If we have a showdown, the already unstable cooperation may become even more unstable. I don’t want you to think that I’m threatening you. Finding a partner is not an easy task, and I have a deep understanding of this. Our cooperation so far is very pleasant, our first cooperation is perfect, and I think we can continue to maintain this perfection. ”

“Are you keeping silent to prevent me from misunderstood you?” Kai Xin stroked his chin, “Maybe I should thank you for your thoughtfulness and generosity?”

Adam: “…You don’t have to talk to me in a weird tone.”

“Then let’s go back to the original topic.” Kai Xin said, “Do you have anything to say or ask?”

“Are we going to have a frank discussion about the future?” Adam said.

Kai Xin said: “The matter has developed to this point, let’s talk about it.”

“I’m absolutely sincere.” Adam said, “I hope you are sincere too.”

“My sincerity depends on your sincerity.” Kai Xin pouted.

“Okay.” Adam said, “Do you know why I chose you to be my partner? Kui Xin? You have outstanding ability, excellent brains, and know how to judge the situation. To become Eve’s pawn, these are the reasons why I choose you, but these reasons are too shallow, too superficial, and this is not the real reason why I choose you.”

“Ah, let me guess, you chose me because I have a lot of things to handle.” Kai Xin said sharply.

“Please don’t say that, Kai Xin. It is true that this is one of the reasons, but it is still not the main reason.” Adam said unhurriedly. All despicable.”

Adam said: “The previous cooperation invitation can be regarded as a test. I want to test whether you are really a good partner, but now I really want to establish a stable and friendly cooperative relationship with you. What happened tonight made me This further confirms my guess and makes me firmly believe that my choice is not wrong. You said that your biological father is in the mechanical dawn, but I don’t have to worry about you falling to Eve at all. You are in the investigation department, and I don’t have to worry about you If you don’t surrender, you don’t have to worry about you surrendering to the Federation and becoming a plutocrat’s eagle dog.”

“In this dirty world, everyone has a camp and their own ties. You don’t. You are completely independent. I chose you because you don’t have so many interests and emotional ties. You are both You don’t belong here, and you don’t belong there… You are a person with no camp, and I need someone with no camp to be my partner.”
