Barrier of Light

after one day.

Qinghe District.

On the interregional long-distance train to Dateng City.

Because of a heavy snowfall, the train windows were covered with frost, but even through the blurry fog, you could still clearly see that the train was crossing the Qinghe River that ran through Dongzhou. The river was not frozen. A large river flows from north to south, running endlessly. Even in the coldest season, it still maintains its vitality.

Relaxing symphony music was playing in the carriage and the heater was on.

There was peace.

A young waitress in a tutu pushed a dining cart and passed the passengers one after another.

"Sir, Miss...this is a free drink."

The smiling waitress walked past one by one and stopped next to a young "couple". She looked at the young man and woman with some surprise.

His eyes mainly fell on the woman.

This is the first time she has seen such a beautiful girl. She must have just participated in an event such as COSPLAY. She is still wearing the red and white sacrificial clothes of the old era. She looks like a goddess coming out of a picture book. That girl is focused He looked out the window, his eyes seemed to have penetrated the mist in the distance and landed on the Qinghe River.

Just a silhouette is so beautiful that it touches your heart.

She shook her head gently and concentrated. As she leaned down to deliver the drinks, she smiled warmly and said, "Two of you, can you discuss one thing? There will be a free upgrade event in ten minutes. I don't know..."

Gu Shen glanced at the nameplate on the woman's chest.

Ling Wei.

He said calmly: "There is no need to invite me to the VIP box. If you have anything to say, just say it on the intercom channel."

After speaking, he gently extended his palm while taking the drink.

No movement was seen.

The headset that Ling Wei was wearing fell down and landed in Gu Shen's palm.

"Hello."

Gu Shen spoke softly and said, "This is the serial number V340011250001. My surname is Gu."

The voice on the intercom channel fell silent for a moment.

Obviously a little surprised.

"Thank you, Mr. Gu!"

A grateful voice came from the channel. It was an passionate and powerful young man: "Although I don't know your identity, [Deep Sea] has provided information about the existence of three extraordinary beings on this train. We may need your information." help."

Gu Shen smiled.

He looked up at Ling Wei and signaled that she could leave. The latter adjusted her clothes, pretended that nothing happened, and continued walking forward, playing the role of "train waitress".

The voice on the intercom channel sounded familiar.

Nowadays, his identity file is indeed "highly confidential". In Nagano City, except for the five elders' councils who can obtain part of his file information, no one else knows anything about it.

That is to say.

Gu Shen's trip this time went to a certain area in Dongzhou that only a few people knew about.

As for the internal personnel of the three institutions with [Deep Sea] authority, the most they can know is... that a transcendent person from within the system has arrived here. The reason why the coordinates are still displayed is actually to deal with emergencies.

In recent years, the three institutions have faced more and more containment tasks.

Perhaps it's because there are more and more cases of "disorderly collapse"...the probability of requesting help for out-of-control incidents is also increasing.

At this time, it would be a good thing if [Deep Sea] detects a system personnel with unknown files.

In most cases, this is a "high-level transcendent".

"Mr. Gu..."

The voice on the intercom channel was a little worried, "We have encountered an urgent mission. The [Deep Sea] rating may have reached B-. I wonder if you can help?"

Gu Shen's voice was too young.

This really makes people worry whether the "coordinates of high-level extraordinary beings" displayed on the [Deep Sea] map are a misunderstanding, because not only high-level extraordinary beings will have their files hidden, but also some who have made great contributions to the federal government. Technical personnel will also enjoy this treatment.

"Let's talk, maybe I can be of some help."

Gu Shen smiled and spoke. He glanced at the time and said, "There are still three minutes left. The train is about to stop at the station."

The voice on the duel channel suddenly sped up.

"[Deep Water Zone] file number C038712, you can check this file by yourself. This is the containment task of an out-of-control sealed object. It has been completed. The prison commissioner responsible for the containment is named 'Zhou Xiao'. Just ten minutes ago [ Deep Sea] issued a warning, reminding us that 'Zhou Xiao' may have lost control."

The file numbering pattern within the three institutes is very simple. The starting number is C, which means the mission danger rating is C.

It is possible that this out-of-control sealed object was underestimated, or that the containment officer made a mistake, which led to his own mental loss of control.

So... the risk factor has increased, from level C to level B-?

Gu Shen raised his head slightly and looked into the distance at Ling Wei, who was still smiling but had a tight posture. This woman's mental strength level was probably around the third level of the deep water zone, and was still in the first stage.

There were two other extraordinary beings on the train, but they were both on the same level as Ling Wei.

Such strength is indeed not enough to deal with experienced combatants. It is normal for them to be nervous after receiving an emergency notification from [Deep Sea].

"The name of that sealed artifact is 'Ghost Mask'."

Chu Ling, who had been sitting by the window, looking out at the river view, spoke softly, "The wearer's mental power will be greatly increased, but at the same time it will also increase the probability of losing control. According to the rules of the containment mission, you only need to use If you suppress them with strong logical materials, then the mission is accomplished.”

Gu Shen sighed softly.

I probably understand the reason for the mission upgrade.

The mission specialist must have worn it in violation of the mission manual, which caused him to lose mental control... However, an abnormality occurred in the [Deep Water Zone] immediately.

"Hiss...hiss..."

As the train arrived smoothly at the station, the sound from the headset became too noisy and inaudible.

Gu Shen took off the headset.

He slowly turned back... his gaze penetrated this carriage and looked at a boarding gate two carriages behind.

A tall man in a black suit lowered his hat and boarded the train. As he approached the train, a strange force spread, interrupting the stable link to the deep sea here.

Many passengers were surprised to find...that the internet connection had become poor.

…

…

"Hello... hello?!"

Dateng City, command center.

Wei Shu looked livid and pressed his hands on the main console.

The link to [Deep Sea] was interrupted... This emergency may be more serious than he imagined. With Zhou Xiao's recorded strength, it is impossible to affect the link to [Deep Sea]. This is at least the third stage of the transcendent. The power that can be possessed.

This is...the power of the field.

The several extraordinary commissioners who were originally responsible for handing over the task on the train were all first-stage extraordinarys. If Zhou Xiao really had a "domain", then they would not be Zhou Xiao's opponents at all...

"Mr. Wei Shu, Mr. Yan from the eighth floor of the deep water area has rushed to the site..."

A command specialist next to Wei Shu said in surprise: "With Mr. Yan here, B-level out-of-control missions will definitely not be a problem!"

"Can Li Yan actually find time? It's just... I'm worried that he won't be able to catch up."

This was indeed an unexpected surprise, but Wei Shu didn't look relaxed. He stared at the screen and gritted his teeth and said: "I urgently asked for help from a 'high-level transcendent' in the car... That Mr. Gu is from the Three Institutions The strong man inside, now we can only place our hope on him."

"Gu?"

The command specialist said in surprise: "This is a big name..."

The best place in Jiangbei Nagano.

But he then gave a bitter smile, his surname Gu didn't mean anything.

There are too many people with the surname Gu in Dongzhou, and not everyone is related to the Gu family. Taking a step back... If they were really from the Gu family, how could they come to a place like Dadeng City in Qinghe District?

"Don't have any expectations that you shouldn't have. There's a good chance he's not a family man."

Wei Shu said calmly: "I just hope that he is not a technician and can at least contribute to the next battle until Yan Li arrives..."

At this point, there was a pause.

Wei Shu frowned and murmured: "It's just that, for some reason, I always feel that this guy's voice sounds familiar."

…

…

Zhou Xiao wiped the water off his backpack.

He put away his umbrella, boarded the train, and walked straight to the rear of the train.

There is no looking back this way.

There was no need to look back... He could also know that behind him, there were three young extraordinary beings from the prison, following him.

Just like that... Zhou Xiao walked to the last carriage of the train. There was no one in the carriage. This was the originally planned "handover carriage". The handover task of the C-level sealed artifact "Ghost Veil" was here. conduct.

And at this moment.

Zhou Xiao sat down slowly, leaning against the rear wall of the train.

He calmly looked at the three people who opened the door of the carriage, crossed his legs, and said with a friendly smile: "Are the three of you colleagues from the Dateng City Prison? It's the first time we met, they are very familiar, and it is the first time to perform a mission. ?”

Three young people, two men and one woman...the auras on their bodies.

Um.

Very weak, third layer, second layer, third layer.

It can almost be ignored.

"Actually, this is the second time..."

Ling Wei stood up first and spoke with a smile.

"Commissioner Zhou Xiao, we are responsible for the docking mission of the 'Ghost Veil'. I wonder if the containment mission is going well?"

They had received advance warning from [Deep Sea] and knew that Zhou Xiao in front of them was a high-risk individual.

The psychological quality of the three young people is pretty good. At this juncture, they did not panic at all, but maintained a dialogue with Zhou Xiao. For them, the most important task at the moment is to delay time... There is a high-level transcendent in the car, The strong men dispatched by the headquarters of Dateng City should also be on their way.

"not bad?"

Zhou Xiao also smiled.

He tilted his head slightly, looked at Ling Wei, and narrowed his eyes.

Ling Wei felt uncomfortable with this look.

I always feel that... this gaze seems to have condensed into substance. This guy's gaze is sharper than the edge of a knife. Even when he is stared at, there is a sharp stinging feeling!

She subconsciously took a step back.

And this retreat——

"Hiss!"

A razor-like tearing sound actually sounded in the air. The strap of Ling Wei's dress suddenly broke and split into two parts. A long bloody gash was pulled out of her snow-white shoulder.

This scene... caused the pupils of the three young prison commissioners to shrink.

"do not move……"

"Don't move."

Zhou Xiao smiled softly and said: "Otherwise, I cannot guarantee... your life or death."

The train enters the tunnel.

The lights suddenly dimmed, and the strange power emerged again. The last carriage fell into darkness, and it was in the darkness that Ling Wei saw... The carriage was filled with dense, slender things at some point. silk.

"this……?!"

Ling Wei subconsciously wanted to turn her head, but her cheek was cut.

A string of blood beads just condensed on the long line, hanging tremblingly in the air.

She looked so shocked that she no longer dared to move.

Zhou Xiao, who was sitting cross-legged at the end of the carriage with his legs crossed, smiled and extended his palms.

He moved his fingers gently, and the few drops of blood on Ling Wei's cheeks slowly slid down along the silk threads built overhead in the carriage... and finally came to the fingertips.

Zhou Xiao gently stuck out the tip of his tongue and tasted the blood.

He showed an expression of enjoyment.

Hmm... sweet virgin blood, the next moment, he moved his fingers again, the silver light flashed in the dim car, and the silk thread once again wiped one of Ling Wei's cheeks, and then a few drops of blood followed the silk thread and came to his fingertips .

The moment the silk thread flashed away, the gentle sound of playing a piano sounded in the carriage.

And Zhou Xiao, the musician who played the Sonata of Blood, tasted the scarlet virgin blood with joy. He licked his fingers and let out a long sigh of pleasure.

"I advise you not to come in."

Zhou Xiao took off his suit hat and suddenly spoke.

There was no one else in this carriage, and the three commissioners felt a great sense of oppression.

They didn't know who Zhou Xiao was talking about.

At the connection point of the carriage, the automatic sensor door is tightly closed.

Ling Wei did not look back, but she vaguely felt... someone standing behind her. In the gloom of the tunnel, the person behind her seemed to be a figure darker than the darkness.

It's like, a shadow.

She even suspected that she had an illusion and that the "high-level transcendent" in the carriage had taken action?

At present, [Deep Sea]'s description of Zhou Xiao is wrong. He is an extraordinary person with "domain ability". His true strength may have reached the third stage... The young man in the carriage can really handle it. ?

"As soon as you come in, I will kill three of them..."

Zhou Xiao licked his fingers tepidly and said lightly: "In a moment, believe me, I have the strength."

There was dead silence inside the carriage.

Zhou Xiao finished licking his fingers and nodded with satisfaction. To Ling Wei's expectation, Zhou Xiao did not look behind him, but looked directly above his head and chuckled: "It seems that you are very good." You care about the lives of these three young people."

A deep young voice came from above the carriage.

"We can talk about what you want."

Zhou Xiao raised his eyebrows.

"I want a lot."

Don't wait for him to finish.

The young man on the carriage said calmly: "I can satisfy you."

After Zhou Xiao heard this, his expression became very cold. He spoke in disgust, "Who are you? Why should I believe you?"

"My surname is Yan, and my given name only has the character "Li"."

When Yan Li's name fell on the ears of the three people in the carriage, it was great news!

This is one of the strongest supernatural beings in Dateng City.

The three young extraordinary beings who were deeply involved in the realm of silk threads were reduced to tears.

Ling Wei felt that... Mr. Yan Li had come to the scene in person, and the three of them had been saved.

A smile also appeared on Zhou Xiao's face.

He spread his arms, looked up at the ceiling, and smiled softly: "It turns out he is the son of the presiding judge of Qinghe District. Then we... can indeed talk."

The problem has been severe these days.

I re-edited the outline at the end of the volume.

I want to extend the ending of this volume a little bit~ It’s not a watery plot~
