Abyssal Wanderer

Chapter 189 NO.00bc: The Battle of Depth 7

Hearing the names of "Paradox" and "Liao Qi" suddenly, as well as the purpose of the other party, Christie was a little dazed for a while.

Turn off "Styx Firewall"? How can this be?

No... If it were a lunatic like the "Fire Thief" who wanted to open up the abyss, the dark net and the basic reality, he might indeed want to do this. But even if it was possible, why would it have something to do with that kid Liao Qi?

But taking advantage of her dazed opportunity, No. 1 moved.

He quickly raised the hand cannon used to activate the "Gorgon" and directly pulled the trigger. High-energy particles oscillate in the cannon body, and the strong magnetic field compresses the huge energy constraints into a blast energy beam.

However, seizing this precious opportunity, No. 1 did not aim at the observatory that was a fatal threat not far away, but fired at Christie's main body floating in the sky a few kilometers away.

Is it a way to die together? But I'm still in the state of the probabilistic cloud defense system...

Within one-thousandth of a second, watching the lighted muzzle in the transmitted image, Christie's mind turned this idea, and at the same time inspired "strong observer vision".

Accurate to the observation of each microscopic particle, the chemical bonds in the other party's whole body are broken. In an instant, No. 1 turned into a cloud of mist. But at the same time, the eerie blue explosive energy pulse that had already been emitted also directly hit Christie... No, it should be said that it hit the position behind Christie.

But in fact, the light beam passed through Christie like a ghost, and hit a private house behind her through her. Immediately, as if napalm bombs were hoarded in the building, those few floors of residential buildings were suddenly blown into a sea of ​​flames.

The glass of the entire building was shattered by the shock wave of the explosion, and countless fragments reflected the flames of the explosion and fell like hailstones. It caused the crowd downstairs to cover their heads to avoid it—a few unlucky ones were even stabbed to death by falling broken glass on the spot.

This blow caused at least hundreds of casualties, but Christie, who was the target of the attack, was unscathed—at this moment, she briefly entered the quantum state, which made an attack of this energy level like a breeze to her. Brushing the face is generally ineffective.

Of course, avoiding damage like this consumes a huge amount of energy. Christie, who was in a quantized state, couldn't help but "feel" the emptiness of the power furnace. So, after confirming that the opponent did not have the strength to continue firing, she immediately lifted the probability cloud defense. At the same time, the antimatter specification is recalculated, and it is intended to supplement the fuel in the power furnace.

But then, she found out that she had been cheated.

The cloud of mist that No. 1 was decomposed by her own observation before, after she lifted the strong observer vision, about half of the matter did not reassemble and undergo chemical reactions, but disappeared directly...

It's as if that part of the substance never existed.

That's not the opponent's body, but the mass projection!

The boson oscillator——the adjustment and transformation of the core of the depth 7 of the Perseus path, is used to realize the ultra-long-distance interference through manufacturing the imaginary mass.

Although manufacturing quality projections are energy-intensive, short-duration, and cannot be projected along with many advanced prosthetics. But the adjuster of Perseus can realize multi-threaded combat by arranging the "Aegis Combat Module" in advance.

I should have thought earlier that after so many years, the other party should also be upgraded to depth 7!

Sensing the strangeness, Christie re-entered the probability cloud state regardless of the power furnace's energy that was about to bottom out. At the same time, her eyes suddenly lit up—the No. 1, who was wrapped in bronze-colored armor, broke the invisibility of the "Hyena Helmet" and rushed in front of her eyes. And on his wrist, there was a blade that shone with lavender light.

It turned out that the other party's body had already ambushed nearby!

Obviously he was in the state of quantum cloud defense, but the moment he saw the opponent, Christie still instinctively felt extremely dangerous.

She backed up abruptly to dodge, and raised her "front paw" to block it, and then...

The blade in No. 1's hand fell down neatly, and the blade easily passed through Christie's "front paws" as if piercing through the fog-the blade didn't even leave a scratch on the surface armor after it fell.

Although there were no traces on the surface, Christie could clearly feel that all the wiring inside his "front paw" had been cut off. It can be said that this hand was completely scrapped before it was repaired.

Phase Sword Scythe of Immortality—named after the mythical Perseus cut off Medusa's neck and used it to break the immortality of the Gorgon. After being brought back to reality by the technology of the abyss darknet, this mythical weapon has become a cutting edge that can bypass the defense and attack the interior through space phase cutting.

The signal of "pain" burned into the core of Christie's logic, and finally transformed into a violent desire to attack. She opened the steel jaw made of low-entropy alloy, and huge energy gathered in her "mouth".

The subatomic fuel deep in the throat was instantly activated, and a bucket-thick hot-melt breath was spit out directly towards the opponent, but the opponent only had time to use the Aegis combat module to form a large prism-shaped shield in front of him.

The crimson torrent of near-white hot melt instantly engulfed No. 1, and the surface of the Aegis shield was constantly damaged, but more spare materials began to fill in and repair it.

The molten breath that seemed to never stop suppressed No. 1 and made an emergency landing on the ground, but at the same time its blazing heat also ignited half of the street. In an instant, it turned into a literal hell on earth.

The planted trees on both sides of the road instantly turned to ashes, the metal fence next to the green belt melted like chocolate, and the cars on the side of the road exploded one after another under the terrifying heat. As for the pedestrians on the road... Even if they were not directly hit, the hair and fat of the innocent pedestrians who were a little closer to the hot melt beam on the street were also ignited.

Those burning people kept rolling on the ground screaming and struggling amidst the "crackling" sound of burning skin and fat.

Seeing this tragic situation, Christie suddenly stopped her "breath". And taking advantage of this opportunity, No. 1, whose armor had not been completely destroyed, also immediately activated the vector injector to distance himself, and released several leaded smoke bombs as a cover along the way.

It takes only a few seconds for two adjusters with a depth of 7 to fight directly. And just the aftermath of their escaping has already destroyed almost an entire block, causing hundreds of thousands of casualties.

Cities have never been suitable battlefields for high-level adjusters. If they continue to fight freely, it is estimated that this entire level will be turned into ruins when the winner is determined.

[Since you have chosen to use this place as the "cocoon" for promotion, are you sure you want to continue playing?]

After pulling away to a distance that would not be captured by the other party's "strong observer vision", Number One asked.

At this moment, his whole body was burned like a melted wax figure, and the necrotic machinery was constantly falling off.

【I was not the one who made trouble at the beginning】

Christie replied, and then she went on:

[Also, regarding Liao Qi, I need you to clarify why he has something to do with the Styx Firewall]

Regarding this, Number One smiled and said:

[It's nothing...just that we suspect him, or the "paradox" that controls him is one of the last wishes left by those super artificial intelligences back then]

【Last wish? what is that? 】

Christie was a little puzzled.

[You really can't keep up with the times... Are you sleeping all these years wandering in the abyss and dark web? 】

Seeing that the other party didn't even know what the "last wish" was, No. 1 couldn't help but say so.

Yes, I'm really sorry for sleeping like this for decades...

Christie thought to herself, and then said sullenly:

[If you don’t want to say it, don’t say it, anyway, when I pull out your logical core, I’ll know everything after scanning it once]

Regarding this threat, No. 1 said indifferently:

[If you can do it... so do you want to continue? 】

There was a sense of "accompany to the end" in his words.

Christie, on the other hand, glanced at the messy eyes on the ground, and then said:

[Another casualty is not good for us... There is a temporary deep dive interface deployed nearby, how about changing the battle to online? 】

【That suits me】

Number one replied.

Hearing the affirmative answer, Christie opened the verification of the deep dive interface to No. 1, and the two used the brain-computer interface to connect to the "server" leading to the abyss and dark net.

"So……"

After connecting to the server, the two people who were miles apart gave orders almost at the same time.

【Domain Construction】

In an instant, the two people's visual signals of reality were cut off. In the thick darkness, the dark green grid lines suddenly lit up and extended to infinite distance.

Then, relying on the extended grid lines, the entire cyberspace began to be rebuilt.

That is the base construction of each of them.

The sky was a mixture of jet black and blood red, Christie was standing on a small boat, and the River Styx was rising under her feet. The bodies of countless dead were formed by the water of the Styx River, and they struggled as if they were going to drag people into the water.

On the other side of the space, there is a stone forest composed of countless lifelike statues of heroes. Number One is riding on a flying horse emitting soft light. He holds the rein in one hand and holds a sharp sickle tightly in the other. . And in the sky, the phantom of a huge snake-haired banshee head is slowly taking shape.

The two worlds were built almost instantly, and then they collided at the position between the two of them, eroding each other's space.

In the image constructed by the two sides, the water of the Styx washed and corroded the stone forest, and countless resentful souls were petrified into new statues.

"So……"

Number one looked at the other party and said.

"second round."

Christie responded.

…………

At this moment, Liao Qi, who was regarded as the key to closing the "Styx Firewall", was making final preparations near the geothermal power station.

In less than a minute, the construction of the geothermal power station will be completed. But at this time, the bad news from the intelligence team came one after another.

The Wolfsbane troop has passed the checkpoint on the first floor, and an adjuster troop with heavy firepower has entered their sphere of influence, and is rushing towards the geothermal power station without stopping.

It may be that the appearance of Wolfbane troops made the resettlement area government see the determination and courage of Pluto Deep Diving Company. The task force stationed on the basement floor immediately received the order from the "tenth floor" and went down to the underground of the resettlement area. It seems that they intend to carry out a special security operation and exterminate the members of Icarus.

Although compared to Pluto's deep-diving wolfbane troops, the combat effectiveness of this task force can be said to be negligible. But their goal is not to fight against the Icarus elite at the geothermal power station, but the other Icarus members who are hiding now-for those comrades who are still natives, this task force is simply It is the inviolable god of death.

[How can there be such a complete plan so soon, those bastards must have made a plan in advance]

Booker cursed with a gaffe in the encrypted channel.

The previous attitude of the resettlement area government was ambiguous. Originally, Booker only expected them to remain neutral all the time, but he did not expect that they would turn their backs so quickly and completely.

[Fortunately, the members of the organization have been arranged to hide separately, and it can delay a lot of time]

Liao Qi said comfortingly.

【hope so……】

Booker sighed.

But both of them knew that there was a high probability that this was not the case.

The resettlement area government's understanding of the underground in the resettlement area and the Icarus Liberation Front is much better than that of the company. The hiding methods of those comrades in the organization are planned for the company. If it is replaced by troops facing the government of the resettlement area, God knows how long those methods can last... Maybe the shelter some of them found is the big benefactor behind it. Resettlement of a member of the district government.

Hold on, live on...

Liao Qi thought anxiously.

In addition, there is a latest news from the intelligence team, which is particularly disturbing.

Not long ago, a series of strange explosions occurred on the seventh floor not far from the drone intelligence control center. A large number of residents have been killed and injured, and several buildings have been destroyed.

As for this, Booker and Liao Qi could even clearly hear the sound of explosions coming from afar.

The last scene photos sent by the intelligence team reminded Liao Qi of the scene where he faced Aconitum-23 in the Abyss Darknet before—the building was hit by a melta weapon and melted like a candle. But if you only look at the photos, the bombardment on the seventh floor of the resettlement area is now many times more serious than before.

Are there any other masters who started filming in this area in advance?

If so, what connection do they have with these current events?

Liao Qi didn't know, and at the same time, there was no way to ask the intelligence team for clarification—after the photos of being bombarded by the melta weapon were sent, the signal from the intelligence team was cut off for some reason.

No way, now he can only focus on matters related to the geothermal power station.

The geothermal power station is complete, with the last piece of the device that looks like a fungus wrapped in a tumor. The countless black blocks that made up the universal printer were reconstructed at the gate of the power station, and they appeared in the form of black cubes in a short while.

[Booker, the power station is complete]

Liao Qi shouted excitedly in the channel, while he shouted, he connected the data cable on his brain-computer interface.

【Then we...】

Seeing this, Booker planned to follow the previous plan to place an antimatter bomb in the core of the power station immediately after the completion of the project, and then release a deterrent broadcast on the public channel to completely end all this.

However, in the next instant...

Without warning, he and Liao Qi appeared in that broken city at the same time.

As in the past, Mr. Paradox was standing on a balcony at this moment, looking down at them.

"This is no longer a trial, but I need you to do something for me."

Before the two could speak, he said so.
