Xia Linyin understood that the "he" Su Jinyan was referring to was Li Luo. She shook her head, "No, I didn't meet him in this game."
Su Jinyan stared at the movie screen without saying anything more.
After the movie ended, the two immediately watched "Saw II" and then left the theater.
Over the next week, Xia Linyin made the most of her time to train her body and improve her physical fitness. The week passed quickly amidst the busy and intense training.
...
The white floor tiles reflect light cleanly, and the corridor is lined with smooth tempered glass on both sides, through which you can see various sophisticated instruments inside.
However, these seemingly expensive instruments appear to have been abandoned, emitting various "beep" alarm sounds, and no one pays any attention to them.
The laboratory was empty. Colorful chemical reagents were scattered haphazardly on the table, and liquids emitting a pungent odor dripped along the edge of the table. Chemicals were scattered all over the floor, and the place was a mess.
The stools lay scattered on the ground, and the shattered glass glittered with a sharp, pointed light.
Looking at the reflection of herself in the tempered glass, Xia Linyin almost didn't recognize that it was her.
The black combat suit clung to his body, with a silver-white, armor-like material on his chest. He wore black gloves with silver-white material covering his joints, and a pair of very stylish boots on his feet.
He wore an armband on his shoulder, a gleaming silver armband engraved with an "X".
Wearing protective goggles, a crosshair appeared on the transparent lenses when her gaze focused on a certain point.
He wore a delicate silver-white earphone on his right ear, and a point of light on the earphone was flashing blue continuously.
Oh my god! He's so handsome! I'm almost turning gay with admiration!
With a silver gun beside her, Xia Linyin had no time to admire her own dashing figure. She quickly picked up the gun and stood up from the ground.
The gun had no trigger, and its design was unlike any gun she had ever seen before; it looked very high-tech and futuristic.
The muzzle was large enough to fit a fist. Xia Linyin searched for a long time but couldn't find a place to fire it. She began to doubt her judgment. Was this thing really a gun?
She just had a gut feeling that this thing was either a gun or a cannon. She was clearly wearing a combat uniform, and there were crosshairs on the scope. What was next to her must be her weapon.
The familiar stinging sensation came, and Xia Linyin quickly took off her gloves and opened her palm.
"Dear player, congratulations on becoming a member of Project X, codename: Demon Sound. A soldier who obeys orders is a good soldier!"
"Player Quest: To be determined."
It's pending! It's actually pending!
She wore a wide watch on her wrist, the face of which displayed a map with the words "Area C" marked in the upper right corner.
Several small red dots on the map are moving, all heading towards a green dot in the center of the map.
The green dot was stationary, but when Xia Linyin moved, the green dot also started moving on the map.
Xia Linyin looked at her watch and frowned. The green dot referred to her, so what were these red dots?
She is now in the corridor. There are two red dots behind her that are very close to her, and the red dot in front of her is even closer, only a little distance away from the corner.
She counted them; the map showed thirteen red dots moving toward her, in a flanking maneuver.
Xia Linyin opened the door to a laboratory, closed it, and then hid behind it, pressed herself against the door.
The moment Xia Linyin closed the door, she saw the nearest red dot turn into the corridor she was now in.
The red dot in the corridor was approaching her position. Xia Linyin examined the silver spear again, turning it over and over. How exactly did she use this thing?
As the red dot drew closer to her, Xia Linyin tucked the gun into her belt and took out her blood-red high heels.
The red dot stopped in front of the glass of the laboratory where she was hiding. Xia Linyin held her high heels and slowly squatted down against the corner of the wall.
The red dot remained motionless in front of the glass, seemingly determining whether its prey was in the laboratory.
The red dot started moving again and then stopped in front of the laboratory door.
"Click-click—" The doorknob was turned a few times.
Looking at the door handle that turned left and right, Xia Linyin felt a chill run down her spine. Regardless of what the red dot was, one thing was certain: this thing had intelligence!
If they are monsters, they are definitely not simple monsters.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Without turning the handle, the things outside began to violently pound on the laboratory door.
Xia Linyin stepped back from the doorway, clutching her high heels and staring intently at the door that was being banged on repeatedly.
The crashing sound stopped. Xia Linyin glanced at her watch. The red dot moved to the side, next to which was the tempered glass wall of her laboratory!
Xia Linyin looked up and saw a monster standing in front of the tempered glass, looking somewhat like an alien!
It has a triangular head like a praying mantis, with unusually large, protruding dark blue eyes. Its body is bald and hairless, with blue veins crisscrossing beneath its skin.
Each hand has only three fingers, and each finger is very thick with sharp nails.
Upon seeing Xia Linyin, the alien let out a piercing scream and raised its hands to smash the tempered glass.
The tempered glass was even harder than Xia Linyin had imagined, but when the alien's injured hands, injured from repeatedly striking the glass, oozed liquid, the blue liquid corroded the glass, leaving damaged marks.
The corroded, pitted glass gradually developed cracks under the aliens' attacks. The cracks spread out in a spider web pattern, making a cracking sound as the glass shattered.
This alien's blood is corrosive!
Xia Linyin looked at the high heels in her hand. Her high heels were ghost artifacts, very effective against ghosts, but only usable as ordinary high heels against other monsters. Now, the alien's blood was highly corrosive, and her high heels probably wouldn't be good against them!
They'll definitely be corroded by alien blood!
We still have to use this weapon!
This weapon looks incredibly powerful!
It seems to be specifically designed to deal with these aliens!
Xia Linyin slammed the weapon on the table, patted it, and then twisted and pulled it with both hands. A miracle happened!
When Xia Linyin pulled it hard, it seemed to trigger some mechanism, and the weapon in her hand split in the middle and then began to reassemble and transform!
A moment later, a laser gun, now transformed and even cooler and more domineering, appeared in Xia Linyin's hands.
The gun barrel reflected a cold, inorganic light; it was absolutely awesome!
