Chapter 308: Soaring to the sky! (Additional chapter, please give me a monthly ticket!)
"Taboo items?" Shuqin looked confused.
"Regarding the rumors and research on taboo objects, there used to be a department in the Federation called the [Special Object Investigation Department]. This organization is specifically responsible for investigating strange phenomena that occur in the polar night. They are not investigating strange entities, but a type of objects that can cause specific strange phenomena. These objects are some kind of objects that originally existed on our blue planet. It was after the Apocalypse that they began to cause strange events. They are believed to have been contaminated by some special power and turned into extraordinary objects. This kind of object is called [Taboo] by the Angel Project, which refers to "specific objects that can cause regional or contagious strange/extraordinary events." Ding Junyi said at this time.
"We already knew this." KIKI said at this time: "In fact, before you got on the bus, we encountered the 1542 strange radio station in Daluo Mountain before Yubei City. It was a strange phenomenon caused by a taboo."
"Yes, yes, we were all scared at that time and thought it was haunted." Sasha nodded.
Shu Qin was very surprised when she heard this. She had attended the bonfire party in Quguan with Lin Xian at that time and knew the situation of Radio Station 1542. After hearing Lin Xian's words, she realized that Infinity had encountered the same thing. At that time, three convoys had received the message at night, and some people were missing.
"So, Captain Lin, you encountered that strange radio station. Are there any missing people?" Shu Qin said immediately.
Lin Xian shook his head, then briefly explained the situation at that time, and then said
"Although it's not really haunted, this thing is very dangerous. It can teleport people into a certain radio frequency, and it can invade people's minds through the power of fear, allowing them to construct the most terrifying images of themselves!"
"So the danger of this kind of item cannot be understood by the means of strange bodies, and it even goes beyond the scope of the currently known supernatural system."
Ding Junyi heard this and said, "This is somewhat similar to the mycelium illusion of the Tiangu Tower. The difference is that one is terrifying, and the other is an illusion of bliss."
"So some kind of illusion in the polar night affects some objects and turns them into taboos?" asked the building.
"That's the only explanation at the moment."
“Don’t talk about anything else.” Lin Xian looked at the floating and rotating golden bracelet, his eyes slightly heavy. He felt a headache when he heard the three words "forbidden object". This thing caused him a lot of trouble last time, but the Heterogeneous Rubik's Cube has now become Infinity's shield artifact, and it can also directly convert black smoke into mechanical source points for him, so he actually loves and hates it. He has also considered that if such an existence appears, he might be interested in understanding it.
But this thing suddenly appeared on his car, making him passive all of a sudden. No one knew what harm this thing would cause.
Thinking of this, Lin Xian signaled everyone to move away first, then he raised his hand to create a simple long metal arm and reached towards the gold bracelet.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the clip of the metal arm approached, the suspended bracelet immediately began to spray extremely fine blue flames in all directions, which looked like transparent air. But it was only for a moment, and suddenly a stream of hot air spread out in the entire car. The temperature rose a lot at once, and Lin Xian's metal clip was melted into molten iron in an instant, dripping into the crucible.
Not to mention his metal clamps, even the crucible quickly turned red and collapsed under the almost transparent blue flame!
Instantly, the entire carriage No. 5 was filled with a hot atmosphere, everyone's faces changed drastically and they stepped back one after another, and a heat wave rushed directly towards the front and rear carriages!
Lin Xian had already activated the AT force field shield defense at this time, and cold sweat broke out on his back. Fortunately, the flame only lasted for a few seconds. If this thing continued to erupt, the entire carriage No. 5 would probably be melted by it, and he would not even have time to throw it away.
"This thing can actually release such high temperatures!!"
“How terrible!”
"Be careful, Lin Xian!"
"Captain Lin, you must not be careless."
"Lin Xian." KIKI flew over at this time: "I'll throw it out!"
"Wait a minute!"
Just as KIKI was about to use his telekinesis, Lu Xingchen, who was standing next to the crucible and had his trouser legs burned, had a change of color in his eyes. He looked at the floating golden bracelet. After the flames were sprayed, the fluorescence above had dissipated a lot, and its floating state became unstable. Lu Xingchen's middle school heart was activated, and he said sternly with his eyes wide open
"I understand. This is a fire treasure. I need to shed my blood to recognize it as my master before I can..."
"Fang Ke is bullshit!" KIKI grabbed a can shell from the trash can and threw it at his head: "It's already late, what if the train burns down?"
Lu Xingchen looked a little embarrassed, and then said seriously: "What I mean is, it seems that this fire was just started by me, and then it was absorbed by it."
Hearing this, Lin Xian glanced at him: "Are you sure?"
"I……"
Lu Xingchen was speechless for a moment. After thinking about it, he made up his mind, bent down and reached out to grab the gold bracelet in his palm!
His action really scared everyone else. Even Lin Xian's heart skipped a beat. But the next second, the gold bracelet held in Lu Xingchen's hand did not emit flames anymore, but just became an ordinary bracelet.
At this moment, everyone's breathing seemed to stop for a moment.
Lu Xingchen's heart was beating wildly at this moment, but seeing that everyone around him was staring at him, he quickly put on a confident look and turned his head to the tall man and said
"See, what I said is true."
After he finished speaking, he opened his palm and let the gold bracelet float in it.
Just when Lu Xingchen thought that he was right and that the others should be relieved, everyone looked at him with even more horror. The little girl Shasha's eyes widened as she looked at his mouth, which was wide enough to fit an egg. She said in shock:
"Brother Huo...you..."
"Hmm?" Lu Xingchen felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and he quickly looked around. But what made him feel a little weird was that the heights of Lin Xian, KIKI, Director Ding, Captain Chen, Brother Lou and others were becoming shorter and shorter.
When he looked down, he was shocked to find that he had actually left the ground!
"Brother Huo is flying?" Chen Sixuan's voice was the first to break the silence.
Lin Xian and KIKI looked at this scene in surprise. At this moment, Lu Xingchen was like an astronaut flying into space, floating lightly, just like the gold bracelet.
“Ah, this…!”
Lu Xingchen could no longer hold back and waved his hands as if he was swimming in the air, but no matter how he moved, he could not land on the ground. Just when his head was about to hit the roof of the car, he raised his hands to support himself and landed.
This bizarre scene stunned the onlookers.
Even Ding Junyi showed a very serious expression and said three words: "Anti-gravity?"
Although the theory of gravity in the scientific community has never ruled out the existence of negative mass, there has never been any evidence to support the idea of anti-gravity.
But when she saw Lu Xingchen's condition at this moment, she immediately thought of this word.
Lin Xian saw that Lu Xingchen was not injured by the flames and was floating. He felt relieved and asked Lu Xingchen, "Are you feeling unwell?"
Lu Xingchen felt that he had no image in front of everyone, so he reached out and grabbed the door of the carriage, barely staying standing.
"Brother Lin, no discomfort has been found yet."
After saying that, he picked up the gold bracelet and handed it to Lin Xian, saying, "Brother Lin, would you like to check it out?"
Lin Xian just wanted to reach out to take it but immediately gave up the idea. He was not stupid. Brother Huo had fire-related abilities, and perhaps that was why he was not affected. Thinking of this, Lin Xian directly started the mechanical scan through the air.
【Scan failed, non-mechanical energy detected.】
Lin Xian frowned, having now confirmed that this thing was indeed a forbidden object, so he immediately tried to use the machine to devour it. After all, his previous heterogeneous Rubik's Cube was also the product of being devoured and transformed by the Mechanical Heart.
As soon as the swallowing starts, information about the swallowing progress will appear immediately in front of you.
[Devouring progress 10%]
[Devouring progress 30%]
[Devouring progress 50%]...
[Devouring progress 80%]...
[Swallowing is about to be completed. The item cannot be deconstructed. Confirm whether to swallow it into materials: gold*0.05]
Just when the swallowing was about to be completed, a light curtain suddenly popped up in front. Lin Xian frowned immediately, thought for a moment, and stopped the swallowing process.
His eyes changed slightly, and then he looked at Lu Xingchen and said
"Brother Huo, try this thing again and see if you can make use of it. If this forbidden item can put you in an anti-gravity state without any other harm, then your fire breath can help you fly!?"
This idea suddenly occurred to Lin Xian just now. The main reason why he wanted to devour the strange radio station before was that he could not control the invasion of the power of fear, and he felt it was a pity to throw it away. When he was devouring it, he happened to touch the reaction of the mechanical heart by accident, so he obtained the heterogeneous Rubik's Cube.
But this golden bracelet, whether it is fire or anti-gravity, can be controlled by Brother Huo. If it is only used to transform materials, it would be a waste. Lin Xian thought about it, it seems that his current understanding of taboos is still too shallow, not all items can be swallowed. Instead of this, it is better to leave it to Brother Huo to enhance his ability, and stay alert by the way to see if there are any undiscovered characteristics of this thing.
His guess was correct. When Lu Xingchen heard Lin Xian's words, his eyes suddenly flashed with a light as if he had suddenly realized something. He took back the hand that he had handed to Lin Xian, looked at the floating gold bracelet in his hand with sharp eyes, and his thoughts turned rapidly in his mind.
Lin Xian’s words reminded him immediately!
If this thing can keep him in an anti-gravity state, then he can fly through the sky and the ground with just a spit of fire! !
That God of Fire is truly the God of Fire!!
At this moment, Lu Xingchen's mind had already emerged a scene of himself flying in the air on fire, looking like a fairy. His heart was immediately pounding, and even his breathing began to become heavier.
"Brother Lin is absolutely right! I will try it right away!"
After Lu Xingchen finished speaking, he immediately reached out, grabbed the door panel and pulled it, floating towards the automatic door of cabin No. 5. Everyone dispersed and looked at his actions with concern.
"Hey, is it really okay for him to do this?" KIKI frowned.
"I think Lin Xian is right. Let him try it." Chen Sixuan said.
Sasha curled her lips and crossed her arms: "Look at how impatient he is, I have no choice but to try."
"We still have to be careful. After all, we know very little about these strange things." Ding Junyi said.
Dalou and Shuqin also nodded.
"Brother Huo, you are a snack."
"The car is going very fast now, if we act rashly..." Shuqin said cautiously.
Lin Xian looked at KIKI and said, "Girl, you go with him. It's best to test out all the details of this thing, otherwise it will be unsafe to leave it in the car."
Hearing this, KIKI glanced at Lu Xingchen and sighed, "Okay."
Chi~
At this moment, the automatic door of carriage No. 5 of the speeding Infinity train opened, and immediately a gust of sharp Gobi sand blew in the face, driving away the heat wave in the car.
"Let's go." KIKI flew to the door with her arms folded across her chest, looking at Lu Xingchen.
Lu Xingchen was also very courageous. He simply flipped his hand and put the gold bracelet on his wrist. Then he turned his left hand back and used his fire ability. In an instant, a red flame spurted out, and Lu Xingchen was carried out by the reverse thrust of the flame. He flew out of the car at an extremely fast speed. Everyone quickly gathered at the door and looked outside.
Just as Lin Xian said, Lu Xingchen rushed into the sky with the flames in his hands at a very fast speed. However, he had never flown before and was in the Gobi Desert at night. He felt dizzy and couldn't tell which was the ground and which was the sky. But Lu Xingchen knew that he was being watched by all his friends. In addition, the people in other convoys might have seen him, the flying God of Fire. At the same time, KIKI was ready to "rescue" him at any time. But if he couldn't even do this, how could he call himself the God of Fire? !
Thinking of this, Lu Xingchen's fighting spirit burst out, he gritted his teeth, quickly regained his senses, and then gradually adapted.
Although he couldn't hover and control direction as freely as KIKI, he was soon able to fly steadily by controlling his flames and posture. Above the night sky next to the West Land, the jet flames with Mach loops gradually accelerated Lu Xingchen. He flew faster and faster, and began to soar straight up, breaking through the wind barrier and blasting into the clouds!
"Although the polar night is full of dangers, there is still a lot waiting for humans to explore." Ding Junyi put his hands in his pockets, looked at the streak of fire in the distant sky, and said solemnly.
Anti-gravity energy, consciousness uploading to plants, mushroom towers, corpse drivers, and growing disaster plants, all of these are just the things they encountered in less than a day at the edge of the polar night. Many of them are major discoveries that can directly overturn the laws of physics and biology on the blue planet, so it is no wonder that she would express such emotion.
Lin Xian also had a complicated expression when he heard this. This time they rushed into the polar night, which was a blessing in disguise. He knew that many people did not have such good luck as them, such as the Phoenix Order Team and the Night Front Team. Now they can only flee all the way, and their only goal is to try every means to escape from the polar night and rush out to the dawn.
But one day, humanity will be completely covered by the polar night. At that time, the remaining humans will have to face all the dangers of the polar night.
"Forbidden objects, disaster plants..." Chen Sixuan sighed: "We know too little about the night, but judging from the mushroom tower, the creatures of the night may know more about us than we thought..."
Chen Sixuan's words made everyone feel a little heavy in their hearts, but Lin Xian's eyes were serious and he said loudly: "Look at the bright side. Brother Huo can fly. Will the combat effectiveness of our Infinite Team be enhanced again?"
"The power of the Dark Invasion can make humans evolve, and these dangerous taboo objects can also be used by humans." Lin Xian said, looking at Ding Junyi: "Isn't the purpose of the [Special Item Investigation Department] you mentioned also this?"
Ding Junyi nodded: "Yes, our ultimate goal in studying darkness is to find a way to survive in darkness, or to defeat darkness!"
"Alas!"
As soon as he finished speaking, an excited shout came from the dark wilderness and resounded through the sky!
It was Lu Xingchen’s cry.
Lu Xingchen's face was extremely excited at this moment, with a thousand excitements in his heart ready to go. Flying in the air was a skill he had dreamed of day and night for a long time, and now that it had actually been realized, he couldn't help but shout wildly!
Human beings' yearning for flying is engraved in their genes. Under the vast Gobi night sky, Lu Xingchen flew freely. He was like a silver arrow that had escaped from a bowstring and was rushing across the sky. The strong wind roared in his ears like a sharp sound of tearing brocade. The air flow wrapped around every inch of his skin. Every dive was like cutting the silk of the atmosphere with flames, and every climb was like stepping on the debris of the stars as a ladder, as if even his soul was dragged into this endless carnival.
He swooped down from a high altitude, like a streak of fire from a meteor streaking through the night sky, and in an instant, he flew parallel to the high-speed Infinity, maintaining the same speed.
“Brother Lin!”
As Lu Xingchen flew, he shouted to Lin Xian who was standing at the door of carriage No. 5: "Thank you for reminding me, this thing is really magical!"
After saying this, he glanced at the people in Carriage 5 and KIKI, who was helplessly looking at him as they flew in sync with each other, and then he smiled sternly and chanted in a heroic manner:
"Everyone, when the great roc rises with the wind, it soars up to the sky... bang!"
Unexpectedly, before he could finish reciting a heroic poem, his whole body and the car crashed directly into a sand wall stone beside the track. The sound stopped abruptly, and then he disappeared from everyone's sight in an instant.
"Brother Huo!"
Everyone was stunned, and at this moment they all leaned their heads out of the car to look for Lu Xingchen.
Lin Xian just wanted to curse. Why didn’t this guy look ahead when flying? Wouldn’t he be killed in a crash at such a fast speed?
Unexpectedly, before everyone finished speaking, a helpless voice came from the top of the carriage.
"I won't die, I caught it." KIKI rolled her eyes, raised her hand and waved, then continued to cross her chest with her hands.
Then the next second, Brother Huo, who was pushing the fire line and flying, appeared in everyone's sight again. He had a slightly transparent mental shield protecting him. The huge speed directly smashed the sand wall stone just now, fell to the ground and rolled several times, and then flew up again without stopping.
All the heroic excitement just now suddenly disappeared as if changing one's face, and Lu Xingchen spoke to everyone with a serious and solemn expression.
"Everyone, I have checked, everything ahead is safe!"
"Brother Lin, the car is in good condition. Our Infinity has special armor!"
He said this as if nothing had happened...
Everyone: ...
“Hey…” Shasha covered her eyes and said in a disgusted tone: “Brother Lin, can you let him fly farther away? I want to go to sleep.”
"Go to bed."
Lin Xian couldn't help laughing and patted Sasha on the head. Then the girl left yawning.
Ding Junyi turned and left without saying anything.
Shuqin and the building both had complicated looks.
"Captain Lin... I'm going to take my turn."
"Brother Xian, I haven't finished that gun yet."
The two quickly looked for an opportunity to retreat.
Chen Sixuan looked at Lu Xingchen flying outside with complicated eyes, then looked at Lin Xian again and asked worriedly: "Is this really okay?"
"It's fine."
Lin Xian crossed his arms and said with emotion: "He is a heroic brother. He has walked on thin ice all his life. He has seen all kinds of situations. How could he be in trouble? Let's leave quickly, and KIKI too."
"Why?" Chen Sixuan looked at him puzzled.
Lin Xian glanced at Lu Xingchen who was flying all the way, and said with a faint smile
"If we don't leave, how can he have the nerve to come back?"
Chen Sixuan smiled when she heard that, and understood Lin Xian's intention, so she turned around and left, ready to continue resting.
After KIKI came back, Lin used the communicator to say to Brother Huo
"Brother Huo, it's polar night now. Using too much fire may cause hidden dangers. It's better to come back as soon as possible."
"Brother Lin is absolutely right." Lu Xingchen responded immediately.
After Lin Xian finished speaking, he walked directly towards the rear carriage. When there was no one around, Lu Xingchen tried his best to control the direction and then slowly flew into carriage No. 5.
After landing, Lu Xingchen brushed the dust off his clothes and found that many parts of his clothes had been torn into pieces by the strong wind. In addition, he had just hit the mountain and fell into the mud, and was already in a miserable state. He then looked at the empty carriages in front and behind and sighed.
"Oh, it's really disgraceful."
Although flying is fun, his control is still extremely unstable. However, as long as he masters it a little in the future, he will definitely be able to be more flexible.
After thinking about it, Lu Xingchen looked at the power armor suit that Lin Xian had arranged for him. Originally, he had no use for this thing, after all, it was not very convenient to use his supernatural powers. But now, he became interested again. At least after wearing this thing, he would not have to worry about the problem of clothing when flying, and it also has good defense. Although his physical fitness is far beyond that of ordinary people, breaking through the wind barrier still almost tore his skin. How to say it... It hurts.
Lu Xingchen, who was planning to return to the carriage, picked up the crucible as soon as possible. He was going to study the transparent flame emitting from the gold bracelet. He had noticed this from the beginning. The temperature of this flame was extremely high, even more powerful than his Burning Sky Sword. Being quite sensitive to flames, he immediately returned to the room, changed into a comfortable set of clothes, then boiled a pot of tea again and continued his research.
"A taboo item? What is a taboo? It's so magical, it can fly with the wind, and it can also spit fire like a wheel. The wind and fire are like a wheel, so why not call it..."
"Infinite Ring."
Lu Xingchen took off the gold bracelet and saw it curled into an ∞ symbol. He couldn't help but have some thoughts.
"Very good. Very good."
