First time getting large garbage
Liu Xia knew that he could not be indecisive and lose his fighting spirit at this time. He had to get rid of Shen Wanren as soon as possible. If Shen Wanren was allowed to recover, then all the people who died today would have died in vain!
The black slime tried to prevent Liu Xia from getting closer. Every time she was one meter away from Shen Wanren's head, the slime under her feet surged like a living thing, and sticky black silk wrapped around her ankles, trying to delay her time.
The mucus seemed to have consciousness. The moment she was about to touch Shen Wanren's broken head, it suddenly erupted and turned into sharp black spikes, heading straight for her throat.
"Get out of here!" Liu Xia's right hand suddenly changed. His five fingers twisted and stretched into sharp black bone blades, cutting off the oncoming mucus with one blow.
This is the ability of genetic resonance, a mutation caused by the fusion of Shen Wanren's black slime.
More black tides surged in from all directions, wrapping around her body like countless poisonous snakes. The skin that the mucus touched was immediately corroded, making a "hissing" sound, but was integrated into the skin the next second, and the new flesh and blood quickly repaired the wound.
"It shouldn't be like this! I'm a pioneer leading human evolution, and no one can replace me!"
Shen Wanren's head was lying just one meter away. On that broken face, his eyes were still moving, and it seemed that a trace of fear could be seen gradually welling up in his eyes: "Liu Xia, if you kill me, you will be strangling the future of mankind!"
"The future of humanity?" Liu Xia sneered at Shen Wanren, who was almost inhuman. "Do you still look half human?"
The black slime struggled again to gather towards the head, turning into long and thin tentacles, as thin and dense as dragon beard candy, trying to connect back to the head.
"That's no reason for you to experiment on innocent humans." Liu Xia gritted his teeth and thrust the bone blade forward, piercing Shen Wanren's solar plexus. He grabbed the still howling head with his left hand and tightened it, "Your game is over!"
[Successfully recycle large garbage and receive a reward: Black Lead Body!]
[Black Lead Body: Can actively absorb radiation energy from the environment and convert it into its own energy reserves!]
"Liu Xia! This world is not as simple as you think!!!"
Shen Wanren's last voice gradually disappeared in a pool of black mucus. A blue badge floated in it and slowly sank.
…
When Liu Xia woke up again, he subconsciously touched the amulet on his chest, but as expected, he found nothing. He sat up and found that he was still in the same posture as when he left consciousness.
There was a cold and slippery touch on her face. She subconsciously raised her hand to wipe it, but it was all tears, even mixed with the color of blood. She seemed to have had a very sad dream, and she seemed to have woken up crying.
The blood and tears flowing from the corners of his eyes were the aftereffects of trying to hold on to his consciousness that was about to leave his body and forcibly carrying He Tianlin out of the pit.
Liu Xia even remembered the temperature of the boy's chest on his back, and He Tianlin's weak but steady breathing on his neck.
"Use my blood to save Xiao He! I know you have a way to save him!"
Those were Liu Xia's last words before she lost consciousness. Only when she saw Song Xuan nodded did she close her eyes with peace of mind.
Although she knew that it was a bit unreasonable, there was no better way. She could only hope that Song Xuan from "Leviathan" might be able to prolong He Tianlin's life.
Liu Xia still remembers the look Song Xuan gave her at that time, one that was filled with sorrow and sadness, as well as an expression that seemed to want to say something but hesitate.
The sky was already much brighter at this time. The bright morning sunlight shone into the room through the gaps in the curtains, casting a slanting ray of light on Liu Xia's face, as if splitting her face in two.
The clock on the wall showed that less than two hours had passed since she left the real world. This meant that Liu Xia had been working non-stop since she got out of the hospital bed, experiencing several life-threatening moments and not even a single good night's sleep.
If she hadn't been so strong-willed, she would have collapsed long ago. Even with her iron will, Liu Xia felt like her nerves were stretched to the limit, on the verge of snapping at any moment.
But Liu Xia knew that she couldn't rest or stop, because Bai Fei was still waiting for her in the dangerous forbidden area.
Taking a deep breath to calm himself, Liu Xia sat up from the sofa and twisted his sore neck. He walked to the sink to wash his face, then took his things, left the room, and jumped over the wall again.
After carefully cleaning up the traces on the ground again, Liu Xia walked out of the secret base, found a relatively open place to stand, then turned on the mobile phone left by the kidnappers and dialed the only number.
The call was only connected once before it was picked up by the kidnapper on the other end. It was obvious that the other party was waiting for her response at any time.
Liu Xia's voice was cold and emotionless, but his tone was very firm: "I found the thing. I will hand it over to the person and the goods."
The voice on the other end had been processed, mixed with the crackling sound of electricity, and he laughed arrogantly: "What qualifications do you have to negotiate with me?"
"I'll only give you one minute to think about it." Liu Xia's tone was unquestionable, full of desperation. "If you don't agree, I'll destroy this thing and we'll all go our separate ways!"
The kidnapper on the other side angrily said, "Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"
"The worst that can happen is that I'll just die. Even if Feifei dies, I'll go and accompany her. I don't want to live anymore anyway!" Liu Xia's voice was filled with nervous gasps. "You have half a minute... 30, 29, 28... 20..."
As Liu Xia counted down, the kidnapper on the other end seemed to sense Liu Xia's excitement: "Okay, okay, I promise you!"
"Come here now, don't try to play tricks, I'm watching you!" The kidnapper then gave Liu Xia an address and hung up the phone in a hurry.
There was a resolute and clear look in Liu Xia's eyes. She had made the right bet. The kidnapper was not far away from her.
The kidnappers must be watching her not far away, able to see her general route but unable to pinpoint her exact location.
This can be seen from the fact that she was out of consciousness for nearly two hours, but was still safe.
Liu Xia just pretended to be broken down while negotiating with the other party, and acted like he was ready to fight to the death, just to test and force the other party.
From this series of actions, she was sure that the kidnappers were very eager to get the "brain source code" and did not take her, an ordinary female college student, seriously at all, but they did not want to make too much noise. She wondered if they were the same group of people who instructed her cousin to paralyze her.
The kidnappers subsequently provided five locations via text messages, being extremely cautious in preventing Liu Xia and his men from finding their lair.
Perhaps the kidnappers felt relieved after trying so many times, and finally Liu Xia came to an unfinished building with a roof that had been completed not far from the community.
It's said that the developer's funding chain has been disrupted, delaying the project's completion. Two years ago, some homeowners who had paid down payments protested, but to no avail. No one cares, and they're forced to continue paying their mortgages. I've heard that many have defaulted on their payments, some even jumping off buildings.
Now this place is so deserted that there are no birds and only weeds growing everywhere. The red banner for rights protection hanging at the door is so worn out that half of it hangs on the ground. Almost no one comes here.
Even though the sky was gradually getting brighter, gusts of cool wind blew out from the dark corridor, making it look extremely eerie and scary. Even a homeless person would probably find it too gloomy.
Liu Xia discovered that the location of this unfinished building was very clever. From the high vantage point, he could easily see the entire community, which provided the kidnappers with an excellent surveillance position.
