Chapter 12: What is Love in the World? Chapter 78: Mysterious Virus

At this moment, the elevator door, which had been silent, suddenly opened, as if welcoming Ye Chen and the others to go up.

"This thing will cause delays." Kaba shook his head and prepared to step in.

Ye Chen's eyes flashed, and he suddenly grabbed Kaba's hand and whispered, "Don't come in."

Kaba was stunned for a moment and asked, "What?"

Ye Chen glanced at the colorful energy cabinet behind him, his eyes flashed, and he whispered: "The daily operation of this store is normal, which means that the intelligent system in the store is not damaged. This elevator is controlled by the intelligent system. If the intelligent system shuts us in and brings the dead bodies outside in, we will be dead."

Kaba imagined that scene and couldn't help but feel his scalp tingling. His face looked a little ugly. He said, "What should we do? There is no staircase here. Should we break through the wall on the second floor and fight our way up directly?"

Ye Chen shook his head. "I've checked. All the metals here are S-grade. Only a few are A-grade (the peak of pseudo-god). It's impossible to break through the wall even if your body reaches the level of a god."

Kaba smiled bitterly, looked around, and suddenly his eyes lit up and he said, "I have an idea!" In Ye Chen's puzzled eyes, he walked directly to the elevator door, stood still, closed his eyes, raised his palm and placed it on the elevator glass tube, with faint lightning moving on his fingertips, pressing on the green switch, as if communicating with something.

A moment later——

The green switch button sank, and then a dull female electronic synthesized voice came out from it: "Who are you?"

Kaba tilted his head to look at Ye Chen and whispered, "We are people who came in by mistake and want to seek refuge on the second floor."

The electronic synthesized voice was silent for a moment, then said, "Then come in."

Kaba groaned and said, "We can't believe you. Can you tell us why this happened here and how long ago did it happen? Can you let me search your memory bank?"

"No!" The electronic voice rejected without hesitation, "Inside the memory bank are all the data and information of our store. Once you are allowed to search, all the secrets of our store will be exposed. In the system instructions, my memory bank cannot be searched. If you force a search, I will self-destruct."

Kaba was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Ye Chen and said with a wry smile: "This small shop is so complicated. It has an intelligent system and an anti-hacker system. What should we do now? If we don't search its memory bank, we can't believe what it says."

Ye Chen groaned for a moment and said, "Tell it that the city is now dilapidated and its small shop is of no use. If you really can't get it, ask it to give us a map of the city. That way, we will know how to go next."

Kaba sighed and said, "It can only be like this."

He turned to the groove and said, "Can you tell us about this city? And why did this happen? You should know everything outside, right?"

The electronic synthesized voice said: "This is not within the restricted range. According to the navigation system settings, I can explain it to you. Our city is called Prior City. It is one of the 30 cities in the Tianxiong World. It covers an area of ​​83,200 square kilometers and has a population of about 90,000. One hundred thousand epochs ago, a chaotic virus suddenly broke out in the entire city. The outbreak of this virus was extremely sudden, and the entire city became a mess."

"Later, most people in the city became monsters who lost their conscious thinking and only had violent emotions. They could not rot, could not feel pain, and still had 0.1% of their original combat consciousness."

As the electronic synthesized voice spoke, Ye Chen frowned. This scene was very similar to the biological virus that had broken out on Earth, except that the virus broke out here 100,000 epochs ago. Moreover, in this world, the monsters seen so far almost all have god-level bodies!

The structure of the entire world here is a god-level world!

The gods who were so powerful that they made people tremble in the outside world were just ordinary people here. And under that strange virus, the corpses did not decay for nearly 100,000 epochs, which was really incredible.

You know, the birth of an ancient civilization is only more than 10,000 epochs. It can remain intact for 100,000 epochs. You can imagine how terrible the effect of this virus is.

Ye Chen speculated that there was another important reason why it did not rot. It was probably because this world was closed before. Everything inside was closed, just like the ruins. Only after this world was opened did the outside air flow into it.

The air is corrosive.

The time in this world before might have been in a state of stillness.

"Hmm?" Ye Chen suddenly thought of something, his eyes flashed, staring at the groove of the intelligent system, and said to Kaba: "Ask it, are you sure it was really a hundred thousand epochs ago?"

Kaba was stunned and asked, "Is there anything wrong?"

Ye Chen nodded slightly.

Kaba's heart trembled, his expression became somewhat serious, looking at the groove in front of him, and said in a low voice: "Are you sure it was a hundred thousand epochs ago?"

The electronic synthesized voice said: "Confirmed."

Ye Chen frowned and groaned for a while, with a look of shock in his eyes. "With this intelligent system, it can tell in such detail, it will definitely not reveal its true intentions in such an obvious detail. This thing is probably true! One hundred thousand epochs... That is such a long time, even S-grade metal would have rotted into slag long ago!"

"and……"

"Before 100,000 epochs, many civilizations on the ancient continent had not yet emerged, and the technology here has obvious mechanical civilization and the technological 'color' of other civilizations. How could there be such advanced technology before 100,000 epochs?"

"There is only one possibility!"

"Could it be that there was some super ancient civilization a hundred thousand epochs ago?"

Ye Chen felt as if he had touched upon a very high-level secret. He frowned, pondered for a moment, and said to Kaba, "Ask it to copy the map of Pulai City."

Kaba nodded and said to the groove: "Please send me the city map." As he spoke, he stretched out his finger and pressed it on the groove. Many fine electric wires appeared on the membrane of his finger and connected to the system. Not long after, he withdrew his palm and said to Ye Chen: "The map has been received. I will send it to you later."

Ye Chen nodded slightly, groaned for a moment, and said: "Ask it if it is willing to help us? If it has any conditions, we can help."

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Kaba's eyes lit up, and he quickly translated Ye Chen's meaning and told it to the store's intelligent system.

"Yes." The electronic synthesized voice said, "There are intruders in the store. There is no security guard at the moment. The self-defense system is damaged and cannot be activated. We need your help. If you are willing, you can become a one-star VIP guest of our store."

Ye Chen smiled bitterly. What's the point of having a *** identity at this time? But he still nodded and said, "Okay."

The electronic synthesized voice said: "There are dead monsters on the second floor. One is by the elevator, one is on the viewing platform, one is in the lounge area, and one is in the open space. Do you want to go there now?"

Ye Chen groaned for a moment and said, "What weapons are here?"

"There are eight guard sticks, four electric wave swords, and one magic light cannon." The electronic synthesized voice said almost mechanically.

"I want both!" Ye Chen said directly.

"These things are all in the storage room on the first floor. It's the second to last position on the left. The password is x23442..." the electronic synthesized voice said mechanically.

Ye Chen glanced at Kaba, and the two of them followed the instructions and walked to the left side of the hall. They found a passage here. There were broken limbs and blood on the ground. There were bright red bloodstains everywhere on the walls and the ground, and there was an unpleasant smell.

"First, second..." Ye Chen and Kaba stopped in front of the second position, which was a platinum door with many mechanical buttons and metal password locks on the surface. After he stopped, he quickly entered the password said by the intelligent system into the metal password disk of the platinum door. After confirmation, the platinum door showed that it was being identified. After a while, the platinum door opened with a bang, revealing a pitch-black room where one could not see one's hand in front of one's face.

Two white lights flashed in Kaba's pupils, illuminating the room. He discovered that it was a storage room filled with groceries, packaging boxes everywhere, and some messy things.

Kaba was about to step in.

Ye Chen didn't know why, but he suddenly felt his heart tighten, as if he was instinctively wary of the darkness, or maybe for some other reason. Anyway, from the dark room in front of him, he seemed to see a pair of cold eyes staring at him coldly. A strong sense of crisis surged from the bottom of his heart. He almost didn't hesitate at all, and pulled Kaba and shouted: "Retreat!"

Kaba was stunned for a moment, but did not struggle. He quickly retreated as Ye Chen pulled him, and asked in surprise: "What's wrong?"

Ye Chen looked at the silent and cold storage room, frowned, and lowered his head in thought.

Kaba looked at Ye Chen's solemn expression and felt a little nervous. He stood there without moving, and cold sweat seemed to be oozing out of the palm of his hand holding the Bu Tian Divine Sword.

After a long while, Ye Chen's eyes suddenly lit up, glowing with a bright light, "I was saying that I felt something was strange, so this is it! This store is made entirely of S-grade metal, but how could the intelligent system be so crude? Not only is the voice inhuman, but the way it speaks is also extremely crude in every way!"

"It's just an elementary intelligence, and it's too cumbersome to use it to compete with demigod-level spacecraft."

Ye Chen's mouth curved up, staring at the cold and dark storage room, took two steps back, and said, "Come out, I know what you're hiding is in there, and you should be able to hear what I say."
