237 God's Descent (V)

She can only move forward

Shouldn't Song Zhizhang be with Lin Xiaofeng? What was he, a duck shop owner, doing here?

The human-machine joint device on Song Zhizhang's solar plexus was deeply sunken. Under the blue light circle, the white hyphae had penetrated deep into his brain and grew together with his nerves, unable to be separated.

When? Zhu Ning couldn't recall. Zhu Ning and Song Zhizhang were so familiar with each other, so familiar that they took each other's existence for granted. But to be honest, she didn't know him at all. What had Song Zhizhang been through?

In her memory, Song Zhizhang always smiled at her with his chin in his hand, wearing a turtleneck sweater that did not expose the skin under the collar. He was a little mysterious. He said that mysterious men are the most attractive, so Zhu Ning did not ask too many questions and kept to that line and would not cross it.

He would take care of Lin Xiaofeng and cook chicken soup for herself so that she could have a mouthful of hot soup after completing her mission. She always felt the atmosphere of home in the Noble Queen Shop.

Zhu Ning stood there with wounds all over her body on a snowy day. She didn't go into the house and just looked at the snow. Song Zhizhang didn't urge her. After entering the house, he threw a down jacket to her and then stood with her quietly.

Song Zhizhang always wore a smile that made him look like a little fox, as if he were calculating something. Though a shrewd man, he was constantly being humiliated by Zhu Ning, who sometimes particularly enjoyed teasing him, trying to get him to show a different expression.

Why did he return to Area 103? Zhu Ning had clearly sent him off; she wanted him to live. Was the chaos at the port truly an accident? It happened at exactly three o'clock, as they were about to leave the port, and a sudden riot forced their vehicles to be blocked.

Even before the real war, Zhu Ning gave him the task of taking good care of Lin Xiaofeng, and he promised himself that he would wait for her to come back obediently.

Zhu Ning suddenly remembered the day before yesterday. After she contacted Prometheus, she walked into the living room. The living room was noisy at that time. As soon as she went out, she saw Song Zhizhang looking at her.

Now the two pairs of eyes seemed to overlap. Zhu Ning didn't understand his gaze before, it was too complicated.

Song Zhizhang's back was covered with hideous scars and his eyes were so empty. He was no longer a little fox. He was Prometheus' tool and the last line of defense in Area 103.

Zhu Ning really wanted to help him cut off the connection between his back and the wall and remove the mycelium of the human-machine combined device. Zhu Ning has always taken the safety of Song Zhizhang and Lin Xiaofeng into her own hands, and she should protect these two people.

Song Zhizhang's limbs were pulled, and his lifeless eyes looked over. Zhu Ning always felt that he was looking at him, as if he was saying something to him, but his voice was too soft and seemed to be blown away by the wind.

"Zhu... Ning..." Song Zhizhang's pupils could not focus. He couldn't even accurately identify Zhu Ning's location in the vast crowd. He looked at him blankly, knowing that Zhu Ning must be there. He whispered, "Let's go..."

Zhu Ning was wearing protective clothing and hiding in the crowd. His body froze. He let him go?

Is Song Zhizhang conscious now? Is he feeling pain? Zhu Ning couldn't dwell on it. His abilities were born to be consumable, and he could never escape his already written fate. He had missed his only chance to survive, and he gave his passport to the family of three waiting at the port.

When Song Zhizhang handed over his pass and walked towards Area 103, he already knew his fate.

The outer wall cannot be broken. Even if a large number of weapons are buried inside and the guns are pointed at everyone in District 103, once the wall is broken, District 103 will be truly doomed.

Su He wants to destroy the city wall, and Song Zhizhang is blocking it. Zhu Ning needs to seize the opportunity to find the source of pollution, so that Song Zhizhang's resistance will be meaningful.

"Let's go..." he said silently.

Zhu Ning's feet felt like they were filled with lead. She was clearly facing Song Zhizhang and wanted to move forward, but now she had to go in the opposite direction of Song Zhizhang and not look back at things that could no longer be saved. Reason told her that this was the most cost-effective way.

There have been enough sacrifices, don't add any more unnecessary sacrifices. Many people are destined to die tonight. Zhu Ning has been pushed into this position, and the cost of retreating is unbearable.

She had no choice but to leave.

Zhu Ning took two steps mechanically and then quickened her pace, from walking to running. As she ran, she heard the sound of wind in her ears and the movement behind her. She could already hear the laughter of children, and the source of pollution was nearby.

The source of pollution has not yet developed into its full form. Zhu Ning can find it and devour it, thus ending the disaster.

Don't look back, move forward.

The laughter coming from the darkness was cruel, as if an ignorant child appeared at a funeral, pushed open the coffin, and fiddled with the deceased inside like a doll.

The source of pollution, Zhu Ning wants to kill the source of pollution.

Su He frowned and looked at the people in the corner. Absolute defense. The Kingdom of God really has a backup plan. The Kingdom of God is sure that no matter who wins between the Revival Society and District 103, they will need energy. As first-class citizens who eat people without leaving any bones, how could they not make second-hand preparations?

The outer wall of the city is extremely strong and cannot be easily destroyed by ordinary explosives and weapons. Only Su He's special ability can destroy it instantly.

Su He's abilities come at a price; she can't use them indefinitely. The same goes for Song Zhizhang's defense. Su He knows Song Zhizhang; absolute defense is rare. He's the strongest defense system the Federation has found so far.

But Song Zhizhang had become alienated. In a crucial battle, he failed to protect his teammates, resulting in the deaths of all but one. After that mission, Song Zhizhang suffered mental problems and spent three months in a sanatorium. While hospitalized, he exhibited severe self-harming behaviors, and three mental status tests failed standard. The medical department concluded that he was unfit for combat and on the verge of collapse.

Song Zhizhang had retired, and Su He still knew about it. She was well aware of her own weaknesses, but she hadn't expected this man to be planted here by Prometheus. At the time, the Federation's assessment of Song Zhizhang was that he would definitely not survive more than four years. How was he still alive?

Tsk, Su He felt a little tricky. At this time, he looked up at the cleaning center building and saw Huo Wenxi on the top floor.

When Huo Wenxi made the plan, he must have considered that in a three-way competition, two of the parties would temporarily have the same goal at any time. Now District 103 and the Kingdom of God have the same goal, at least the outer wall cannot fall down.

Once the wall collapsed, there was no need to save Area 103.

Huo Wenxi's life or death is unknown now, but her inference was correct. Su He was indeed still confronting Huo Wenxi, and Huo Wenxi was Su He's eternal opponent.

At this point it is a blitzkrieg, and decisions must be made in an instant.

Su He did not hesitate for too long. She caught a glimpse of Zhu Ning entering the park. If Zhu Ning found the source of the pollution, it would be equivalent to Huo Wenxi killing her, and she would lose the whole game in an instant.

Su He raised her head and saw a ruin in front of her. She was very familiar with this scene. Her biggest opponent now was Song Zhizhang.

Song Zhizhang is on the verge of alienation. His abilities are limited, and he will be exhausted if he uses them too many times. Su He judges that he is about to die, but Su He is different. She can exhaust Song Zhizhang to death first.

Snap——

Su He raised his hand and snapped his fingers in the air, making a crisp sound, which was the prelude to death.

The direction of this attack was the east wall. She pushed out the Death Line mercilessly. Her subordinates were there. They had not received Su He's retreat notice. Before they could react, they looked up and saw the scythe of death falling.

Su He didn't have time to explain too much to others. Sure enough, after she snapped her fingers, Song Zhizhang's back spread again, and a giant screen-like wall grew out, blocking the attack.

The huge impact caused Song Zhizhang's body to shake. His neck was stiff, and a white substance seeped out from under his turtleneck sweater, covering him like a layer of city wall. It was so fragile that it gave people the illusion that it could be crushed with one hand.

Song Zhizhang's body couldn't even fall down. He was pulled backward by an invisible force. He had to support the weight of an entire wall with his broken body. He would soon be unable to hold on. Even at the peak of his absolute defense, he couldn't cover the entire Area 103.

This ability is used to assist teammates in battle, not to protect the wall. All attacks from the enemy must be endured.

Su He raised his hand, about to snap his fingers a third time. Another snap would surely kill Song Zhizhang. With Song Zhizhang dead, the defenses would crumble, the city walls would inevitably break, and Su He would turn and kill Zhu Ning. This whole sequence would take only three minutes to execute.

Her middle finger and thumb have been merged together, and just a gentle rubbing will produce a crisp sound.

But Su He's movements suddenly stopped. When she turned around, an ice spike brushed past her side and fell down, like a spear appearing in mid-air.

Immediately afterwards, there were bang bang explosions, and countless sharp ice spikes suddenly grew out from where she was originally standing. If she had not dodged in time, she would have been pierced through the chest.

Su He retreated quickly, and a corner of his red windbreaker was scratched. He was an ice-type mutant.

A dark shadow ran past me very quickly, like a nimble cheetah running in the grassland, and then the man's body hid behind a building. Most of the residents in the building next to it should have gone into the shelter. There was no light on inside, and people hiding in there were like rats hiding in a sewer.

Su He's special ability is destruction, not perspective. She can crush the house into powder, but she cannot consume her energy at will now.

Su He stared coldly, a cold light flashing in front of his eyes. The mountain cat was hiding in a residential building. If he wanted to use his ice ability, he would definitely reveal a bit of cold light, just like a sniper would not erase all traces of himself when firing.

Su He had been on the battlefield for a long time and was familiar with different types of superpowers. After seeing the cold light, she moved her fingers and wanted to make a precise attack, but was quickly interrupted.

A shell broke through the air. Su He raised his hand, and the rotating weapon turned into a piece of sand in mid-air. When Su He raised his head again, the cold light opposite the residential building had disappeared. It was obviously a coordinated battle.

Play this trick on her, the human wave tactic, use your own special abilities to consume Su He's abilities, a bunch of ants.

Shen Xingqiao was wearing a black protective suit and holding a slender cannon barrel. She dodged immediately after firing the gun. She leaned against the wall with the gun in her arms, her heart beating fast. Su He's ability was so terrifying that he could even destroy a bomb with just a wave of his hand.

It is impossible for a normal person not to be scared when seeing this scene. There is indeed a difference between watching the video and seeing it with your own eyes.

Shen Xingqiao heard the movement of the bobcat through his earphone. The bobcat should have escaped. Their temporary team had never left Zhu Ning from beginning to end.

"Su He's ability has blind spots, and the dead line can only be pushed in one direction at a time." Huo Wenxi had said this before setting off. "If you see her, immediately disperse. Don't focus on her target. Go to her side and behind her."

"Please make sure to clear all obstacles for Zhu Ning." Huo Wenxi solemnly instructed.

Shen Xingqiao's hands were emitting purple light, and the thorn bushes had opened up. She knew that her position would be exposed in this situation, but she didn't care.

For example, when transporting a most important weapon, Shen Xingqiao would pave the way for Zhu Ning.

Zhu Ning stepped into the park gate and found someone guarding the front. Zhu Ning dodged to the side and slid on the ground to avoid the fatal blow. She just turned over and stood up, and was about to use her talent to block it, but a bullet grazed her body. Someone had already opened fire from behind.

"Zhu Ning, go forward!" Someone shouted at her. It wasn't even a familiar voice, maybe just some strange witcher.

Bang--

A demon hunter transformed two knives into two swords in his hands, swung them out and blocked the attack of an assassin.

"Keep going!" Another person stood in front of her.

They shouted to themselves, just like Song Zhizhang, to keep going.

The absolute defense built by Song Zhizhang was like a tall sculpture. He watched silently. Fire was burning behind Zhu Ning. Many people were fighting. The sound of hot weapons rang out. Some buildings collapsed. Everyone fought to let Zhu Ning take one more step forward.
