Chapter 400: Rusty City Strange Stories

Although we don’t understand what exactly happened to Gan Mi, it is not difficult to infer that this action was to protect Shen Zhen’s family.

This is why Xu Zhiyan always felt that Gan Mi was different from other mimics.

A rebellious mimetic is more valuable than a dead mimetic. Hatred cannot replace everything. At least at this moment, humans need more help.

Xu Zhiyan’s words left Gan Mi a little stunned.

He just felt that he had returned to the day when Enli died in a trance.

The stupid brother who never wanted to call him called him brother for the first time while lying on the ground.

'Brother, please release Chen Zhen.'

Yes, that's what Enli said.

It had clearly not been too long since this incident happened, but Gan Mi felt as if it were a lifetime ago, and even her memory of it was not very clear.

When meeting Xu Zhiyan's eyes, Gan Mi's reaction was much calmer than expected.

"Oh? You mentioned this."

His tone was calm, without a trace of emotion.

"Then you probably didn't continue to investigate what happened later. But if you did, you probably wouldn't find anything."

Gan Mi's lips curled up, but there was no smile in his eyes.

"They are dead, all of them."

"When all the humans associated with this memory die, the emotions of this body will also disappear."

The fading of human emotions brings about an inexplicable fear, so he hurriedly sent Shen Zhen out of the sight of the Utopia the day after her death.

He was afraid that after the only remaining affection he had for Enli disappeared, he would not remember his brother's wishes; he was worried that he would once again receive the task of severing his ties with the world with his own hands; he was terrified that he would turn back into a soulless body.

Everything is under Yan Chengfan's surveillance.

Even if Chen Zhen's family cannot influence Gan Mi in some ways, and he will lose relevant human emotions in a few days, this does not prevent the Utopia from eliminating all humans who may cause problems.

After all, humans are just containers and consumables for mimics.

"Speaking of which, I have to thank... Boss."

“If it weren’t for him, I might still be bound by the fear brought on by human emotions.”

His lowered eyelids concealed the thoughts in his pupils, and when Shen Zhen's family was mentioned, Gan Mi acted indifferent.

“Crack—crack—crash…”

During the conversation, the monster that had been ignored kept squeezing itself out from the cracks in the ground, and the air wall was shaking due to the impact. As the force became heavier, the wall made a sharp sound that made people's teeth ache from time to time.

Gan Mi turned around with a serious expression.

The monster behind the air wall was already many times larger than the one that was chasing the Jinsheng police car before. Its flowing figure that was dozens of meters long and blocked out the sky and the sun carried a terrifying pressure.

What’s even more terrifying is that monster bodies that look like liquid metal are constantly pouring out of the cracks in the ground.

No one knows exactly how big it is.

Gan Mi's tightened fingers seemed to encounter resistance and loosened inch by inch. Feeling that the air wall could no longer withstand any more impact, he simply stopped maintaining it and casually threw away the coat on his arm, reached out to unbutton his cuffs, and rolled up his sleeves to his elbows.

His smooth muscle lines were tense, and his bulging blood vessels were visible. After hesitating for a moment, he suddenly took off the watch on his left hand.

"Hey, go on."

Gan Mi turned around and threw the watch in Xu Zhiyan's direction, explaining, "It's a limited edition, worth more than 10 million. It can still sell for a lot at a discount. Consider it a deposit."

He explained his behavior, not knowing to whom.

"To be honest, I don't quite trust your plan B."

He planned to fight the monster himself first.

"Go wait outside the range. If I can't beat you, I'll go to the place you arranged."

Although he couldn't use props, now that Wang Ying, the guy who betrayed his teammates, was gone, he didn't feel that he was completely powerless to fight.

Xu Zhiyan received the watch which still had body temperature. He repeatedly checked the brand of the watch while cursing.

"Wait a minute! Can you please look around?"

Gan Mi was stunned and looked around quickly. He saw that the square was covered by flowing black metal at some point, and he could only vaguely see the shadows outside.

"Run? You can't even fly!"

Xu Zhiyan pointed to the sky which was also covered with a film, and put the watch he had checked into his pocket.

The props cannot be used, and even the backpack cannot be opened. I have to run carefully and don’t get lost.

Gan Mi raised his hand tentatively and attacked the wall in the distance.

"Bang--"

An explosion occurred, and a small hole was blown open in the black film, but almost in the blink of an eye, the damaged area was repaired by more flowing metal, and the speed was so fast that it made people suspect that the crack that had just been blown out was just an illusion.

Trapped...

Gan Mi suddenly asked, as if he had thought of something.

"Do you have any offensive skills?"

After a brief recollection, the only memory he had of Xu Zhiyan's active attack was the scene when Xu Zhiyan and Song Long were eating Sichuan chicken together during the split hospital.

When talking about his own shortcomings, Xu Zhiyan could only speak helplessly.

"I have a skill that has the potential to steal your pants. Does that count as an attack?"

Before Gan Mi could answer, a huge crash sounded, accompanied by the sound of the air wall shattering.

"boom---"

Without having time to explain in detail, Gan Mi added a few states to Xu Zhiyan that could increase his movement speed, and then dodged the monster's attack.

"Hide first!"

After saying that, he focused all his attention on the monster in front of him.

The liquid with a metallic luster condensed, and it fell down with the anger and attack that had been ignored for several minutes.

Fortunately, Gan Mi was able to move in the air, which made him much more flexible than those who could only run on the ground. He easily avoided the attack and found an opportunity to counterattack.

It’s a pity that all means of attack failed to hit.

No matter what kind of attack it was, as long as it landed on it, the part that was hit would instantly melt like water, and then solidify again when the attack disappeared...

The battle continues.

Time passes by little by little.

…

The figure, who was extremely small compared to the monster, moved quickly in the air. The flowing attacks came violently, and he dodged one blow after another.

“Damn it.”

Gan Mi cursed inwardly and dodged.

“Swoosh, swoosh—swoosh—”

More attacks occurred.

After failing to hit its target for a long time, the monster became more and more violent.

Monsters will not be hit by attacks, and Gan Mi has flexible hands. If she encounters multi-directional skills that she cannot dodge, she will quickly erect an air wall to offset the damage.

For a while, both sides attacked each other intensively, but neither could cause serious damage to the opponent.

The situation was becoming deadlocked.

Gan Mi didn't dare to stop.

He still remembered that Xu Zhiyan was a pay-to-win player.

Now that he was the check and balance, the monster had no intention of dealing with anything else. It just wandered around the center area with all attacks directed at him. He was worried that if he stopped, the monster would attack Xu Zhiyan.

Glancing at the bumpy ground, Gan Mi was still wondering how the other party was hiding when he heard Xu Zhiyan's powerful voice.

"Don't just attack. I remember you have a skill called Air Cage. Use that! Use it to cut off the connection between its body and the main body. Find a place to place it first..."

After Xu Zhiyan shouted, he put down his hand and quickly ran to a relatively open place.

Just now, when Gan Mi and the monster were attacking each other, he saw that he couldn't escape so he simply observed carefully, and finally found a loophole that could be exploited in the flowing body of the monster - when the monster's bodies collided, they would occasionally knock off parts of their own bodies. Once these parts were separated from the main body, the liquid would lose its aggressiveness.

Gan Mi was stunned for a moment, then used the Air Cage on the monster's squirming body.

Unfortunately, it was different from what Xu Zhiyan expected. The moment the cage touched the monster's body, the liquid flew away, turned into a pool and merged into other parts.

Gan Mi's heart moved.

The monsters are hiding, which is good news.

He slowed down his movement speed, luring the monster to attack, and sure enough, when the monster's own body collided with him and some liquid fell out, he used the air cage again and was able to trap the part that had separated from the monster's body.

However, Xu Zhiyan suffered after giving the hint.

Unsurprisingly, the shouting voice attracted the monsters' attention. The monsters that were attacking Gan Mi wholeheartedly also shared some of their attacks with him.

Soon, Gan Mi also gave feedback.

"No! It's too slow."

The bodies of the monsters have to be shattered by their own collisions, so it is not easy to collect them. The monsters are too big and it will take several years to defeat them all.

"Are you stupid? Who told you to fight monsters?" Xu Zhiyan dodged in a panic while pointing at the black film in front of the square and said, "Blast it in a circle, and then use the air wall to pick up the detached part in the middle. As long as the explosion is bigger, we can get out!"

"boom--"

The black metal attack brushed past his face.

Only then did Gan Mi react.

After taking a look at the monster, he realized that there would be no victory if he continued fighting, so he retreated according to Xu Zhiyan's command.

It is not difficult to evacuate with Gan Mi's attack.

"You go first, I'll follow." He shouted to Xu Zhiyan, "I'll use my skills the moment you reach the rift."

“Boom—bang!”

Four rows of blast holes appeared neatly on the black film. Then, at the moment the black film healed, an air cage was stuck in the middle, trapping the black metal that was originally used to repair the black film.

Xu Zhiyan didn't hesitate to calculate the speed of the regeneration of the black film around him and quickened his pace.

But just when he ran to the vicinity of the crack, he was stunned by the scene outside.

A speeding police car rushed towards the crack!

On the police car, Xinan stood on the roof, holding a double-edged knife, with a very excited expression.

"Gan Mi, today is the day you die!"

Perhaps it was because he was in such a good mood that even the inorganic electronic sound revealed a bit of his owner's joy.

However, it was not Xinan himself who stunned Xu Zhiyan.

Behind the already tattered car, there followed a huge monster made of corpse parts. They were squeezed and spliced together, emitting resentment that was visible to the naked eye, as if it would not stop until it tore the human on the roof of the car to pieces.

"What are you standing there for? Run!"

Gan Mi, who had been preparing to retract his skills, yelled at Xu Zhiyan. If Xu Zhiyan didn't leave, he didn't know if he could distract himself again.

But the next second, he felt that his skills had been unlocked.

The double-headed knife pierced into the air cage, and then the car that was almost on fire and the crazy human on top of it rushed in from the gap!

When Xinan saw Xu Zhiyan, he hesitated for a second and then stretched out his hand to say hello.

"What a coincidence, you're here too."

“…”

Xu Zhiyan was stunned. The voice was still in his ears, but the car and the mad dog had already rushed out.

Glancing at the black film that was healing at lightning speed and had deepened several layers, Xu Zhiyan realized that the monster had reinforced the strength of the surrounding black film, and the same method might not be able to open the black film a second time.

Damn, he might actually be a lucky F!
