Embers Ad Infinitum

Jiang Baimian's consciousness fell back into her body, and drops of tears had slipped wetly on her face at some point.

She closed her eyes, bent down without a moment's pause, lifted Shang Jianyao up, and carried it behind her.

She then discerned the direction and ran towards the only exit.

…………

In the spiritual world of "Zhuang Sheng", in the room full of green.

"Shadow of Distortion" Winster Garland also entered here, instead of "Siming", he ran left and right towards the golden Buddha.

Regardless of whether "Bodhi" used "Consciousness Deprivation" or "Six Paths of Reincarnation", "Twisted Shadow" was not affected in any way, because the opponent didn't target him at all.

This is his ability, "judgment error"!

Under the "new world", this is called "human body stroke", and now even the ability of the awakened person will "wipe" him past!

Within a few flashes, the "Shadow of Distortion" appeared above the golden Buddha.

He held a two-handed giant sword that appeared, and slammed it down.

Almost at the same time, "Bodhi", who was still being dragged by "Si Ming", turned his body sideways, letting the two-handed giant sword fall from his face down.

"Prediction"!

This is the "foreseeing" ability in the bodhi domain!

Seizing the opportunity of "Twisted Shadow"'s one-shot miss, "Bodhi" faced him face to face, and used "He Xintong" instead.

This time, the "Shadow of Distortion" had nowhere to hide.

A snake suddenly appeared in his mind, a twisted, wriggling snake.

"Shadow of Distortion" immediately screamed, and ran out of the room without caring about the direction.

"Bodhi" didn't have time to make up for "Twisted Shadow" because "Si Ming" launched another attack.

"Sudden arrest of consciousness"!

"Conscious deprivation"!

The two fought each other and passed out at the same time, but woke up quickly.

"Siming" once again extracted the human consciousness in the "Panguan Creature".

Unlike before, she focused her coverage on the 600th floor of the underground building without being able to distinguish in detail. In this way, she can obtain food, supplement her own consumption, and keep her in the best condition. , and can transform a large number of "unintentional people" who occupy a favorable location, so as to prevent those traitors from escaping from the company.

If she hadn't entered the spiritual world of "Zhuang Sheng" and her ability to influence the outside world had dropped to a very low level, she would definitely start from the exit of the underground building and not let a single employee leave alive!

The aura of "Si Ming" returned to the previous level in an instant, while "Bodhi" was obviously much weaker.

Looking at the big golden Buddha, "Si Ming" smiled slightly and said:

"I'll fight you in a stupid way, I can get replenished constantly, can you?

"If you extract human consciousness to extract the spiritual power of those monks to supplement yourself, how dare you say that the more you read Buddhist scriptures, the more you regret it?"

"Bodhi" was silent.

Suddenly, his figure flashed and disappeared there.

Immediately afterwards, "Bodhi" appeared in another direction.

The place where he sat cross-legged just now was filled with mist, like a dream.

This is the "forced sleep" of "Dawn".

The voice of "Bodhi" echoed:

"'Dawn', aren't you on the side of 'Broken Mirror'?"

Because the enemy he was facing was not "Zhuang Sheng", "Dawn" had already recovered his hearing.

In the dreamlike mist, a ray of morning light lit up and made a voice:

"'Broken Mirror' couldn't trap so many years, so I had to let 'Mandala' go."

…………

"You Gu" walked forward step by step vigilantly, worried that what she saw was not an illusion, but reality.

That would lead to her getting a sneak attack.

For "Broken Mirror", an opponent who is in charge of such vigilance is perfect, because her goal is only to delay, and the more vigilant the opponent is, the more time will be spent in the illusion.

On the other side, "Golden Balance" has already blindfolded, otherwise he will definitely be overwhelmed by the extremely asymmetric items transformed by "Broken Mirror".

Even so, he was also full of anger, because the "broken mirror" consciousness that flickered in his induction, left and right from time to time was no longer a lump, but became an irregular shape.

"Damn it!" "Golden Balance" roared angrily.

…………

"Supervisor" Jiang Xiaoyue walked from room to room, and different "Zhuang Sheng" did different things.

Some of them played games, some focused on scientific research, and could no longer focus on blocking the enemy.

"Control feelings"!

Du Heng's voice sounded in these rooms:

"I know that your price is arrogance. I didn't expect you to obey my orders, but I thought you would be arrogant and unwilling to join them."

"Supervisor" Jiang Xiaoyue did not respond to him, she had already blocked her own hearing.

Behind her, "Truth" wearing a flowered shirt and beach shorts walked forward smoothly through the passage opened by the executive, and from time to time used the ability of memory to help the "Monitor" and himself eliminate the "hypocritical people." ", "Literary Youth", "Fragile Heart" and other abilities.

They didn't walk fast, they played steadily, and they showed enough respect for "Zhuang Sheng".

…………

"Double Day" Brian Stanley had just entered the next room when he saw Shang Jianyao in gray camouflage.

He knew that this guy was also in the field of "Zhuang Sheng", so he didn't dare to neglect, and instantly blocked his hearing.

But Shang saw that Yao didn't speak, and jumped up to fuck.

Radio Gymnastics!

Brian, who is over 1.8 meters tall and has yellow hair and blue eyes, froze for a moment, and instinctively pointed out:

"You're not acting right."

"It's right if it's not quite right! Otherwise, how could I get your attention?" Shang Jianyao muttered in a low voice.

"Double Day" was about to make the other party forget the ability of a part of the field, and suddenly stayed there.

"Why am I attacking this man?

"What am I here for?"

"..."

Such thoughts popped up in his mind, and he didn't know what to do next.

In another room, as soon as the "mandala" wrapped in flowers entered, a red banner was seen.

Those banners read:

"Warmly welcome the greatest executive year-old Ms. Mandala to come and guide you."

"You have a special temperament, and you are the most charming of all executives."

"I have read all the papers you wrote back then. I couldn't understand them at all, but I was deeply shocked."

"..."

"Mandala" Sylvie stopped, looked left and right, and was reluctant to leave for a moment.

…………

In the small city called the second research area.

Jiang Baimian, who was wearing a military exoskeleton device, carried Shang Jianyao on his back, and once again carried out the policy of walking in a straight line first, and then making a detour to find the exit.

When she encountered a wall, she climbed over a wall, and when she encountered a house, she quickly ran several hundred meters.

She thought that even so, it would take at least ten minutes, or even longer, to return to the entrance and exit of the tunnel, so she was a little uncertain and worried.

"After entering the tunnel, it is much more difficult to leave the Eighth Research Institute than to walk through this city. It is indoors, and it is still in the middle of the mountain. There are many forks in the road. There is no other good way except to stop and think twice. Moreover, even if One stop, two thoughts, three passes, the number of times of getting lost is probably more than two times..." Jiang Baimian's thoughts changed sharply, and he analyzed the current situation.

According to her judgment, if she wanted to escape to the edge of the explosive power of the small nuclear warhead and save herself, at least she had to return to the hiding place where the jeep was parked.

And it's absolutely impossible to get it done in less than half an hour.

Even if there was half an hour, Jiang Baimian didn't have much confidence.

This is the best kind of situation.

At worst, it won't last for hours.

Jiang Baimian's expression changed, and the words Shang Jianyao said appeared in his mind:

"...The overall situation is still in favor of the big boss and the others. Even if I are added, it is estimated that it will only delay the time of defeat.

"We will try our best to give you time to escape from the Eighth Academy, and try our best to create a chance for you to detonate the nuclear bomb.

"That opportunity may be fleeting, and you must seize it."

Thinking of this, Jiang Baimian couldn't help but whispered to himself:

"Is there really that chance?

"Can you really last for more than half an hour?"

…………

Once, twice, three times, "Si Ming" used the most stupid way to seek to fight "Bodhi".

Of course "Bodhi" didn't dare to do this again, let's not mention the problem that the consumption cannot be replenished, just "Li Xiao" was eyeing him, so he didn't dare to try it lightly.

If he really wants to lose consciousness for a short time, "Dawn" will definitely not miss the opportunity, and will definitely add a "forced sleep" state to him.

In that way, "forced sleep" and "sudden arrest of consciousness" struck alternately, and he had no possibility of resisting.

He didn't care about his own consciousness dissipating and his complete death, but he was afraid of affecting the plan to end this disaster.

"Bodhi" saw that his consciousness had weakened to less than one-third of the usual, so he had no choice but to flip his hole card ahead of time.

In his "Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss", the monk heard his grand and solemn voice:

"The catastrophe has come, and those who are willing to sacrifice their lives for human beings will provide me with their spiritual power."

Most of the monks were already mentally prepared, and raised their palms together:

"My Buddha is merciful."

They turned into beams of light, and plunged into the golden body of "Bodhi" like moths to the flame.

The aura of "Bodhi" soared, returning to the level when it first appeared.

"Si Ming" was not depressed by this, and once again extracted the human consciousness of the underground building of "Pangaea" and the city at the end of the year.

She is not afraid of exhaustion!

Moreover, the pace of the battle between the two sides is getting faster and faster. As long as "Bodhi" has no other cards, she is confident that she will consume the old man within ten minutes and severely injure him so that he can no longer affect her.

In other rooms, "You Gu" and "Golden Balance" who were advancing steadily broke through one illusion after another.

Although they haven't hurt "Broken Mirror" yet, they have consumed each other greatly, and they themselves have enough supplements.

Similarly, when "Shuangri" forgot what to do, "Mandala" covered his eyes so as not to be influenced by people in the field of "Zhuang Sheng" using words.

Then, according to the coordinates of the core room, she went in a straight line, passing through doors and breaking walls without doors, and did not hesitate to consume.

On the gray soil, a large number of human beings have become "unintentional", and there is chaos.

Only "Zhuang Sheng" holds the control of "New World", and it is not too difficult to block "Supervisor" Jiang Xiaoyue and "Truth" who has no authority.

Shang Jianyao joined the battle later, and the consumption was not too high. He took the time to let the assembly state return to the core room, and said to "Zhuang Sheng":

"Teacher Du Heng, do you still have a hole card, no, the reserve team?

"It's not an option to go on like this, at most fifteen minutes, no, ten minutes, we will be defeated across the board."

Du Heng smiled bitterly and said:

"How can there be a pile of hole cards that others don't know about, and treat others as fools?

"My hole card was originally you.

"Under normal circumstances, relying on 'Scorching Door', 'Last Man', and 'Twisted Shadow' to delay for a while, and at critical moments, let 'Bodhi' and 'Broken Mirror' turn against me, plus my own strength and authority, Enough to get the most spare time.

"In order to prevent accidents, I also added you. What I said before was so solemn, but I still left you with a chance. If things really develop as I expected, you don't have to join the battle. You can seize the opportunity and escape Here, back to dust.

"Who knew, from the very beginning, half of my plan went bankrupt, but luckily you were able to take over.

"You, me, plus 'Broken Mirror' and 'Bodhi', with the help of the control of 'New World', they can also delay them for a long time, and the possibility of ending this disaster is still very high, but I didn't expect it Yes, they are cold-blooded and cruel to such an extent, they don’t fight for their wisdom, they don’t fight for the application of their abilities, it’s purely wasteful, they fight hard and stay silent, making the situation worse so quickly.”

Having said that, Du Heng paused:

"I can switch personalities, be ruthless, and consume them face to face. After all, this battle cannot be without victims. If I can save most of them, I will be satisfied.

"But I think, 'Bodhi', 'Broken Mirror' and you will definitely not do this, and I can't delay it for too long by myself.

"The situation is so bad that most of my personality may rebel, making it impossible for things to turn around."

Shang Jianyao was silent for a while, and there was a devilish voice in his heart saying "I can do it too".

But this was quickly suppressed by most Shang Jianyao.

He asked:

"Wu Meng, what about 'future', can it be used?"

Du Heng shook his head:

"Wu Meng just got some authority and barely protected himself. Now he is waiting outside to see if there is a chance to make a profit."

"Use the authority to change the room where he was held to 'Truth' on their way forward?" Shang Jianyao made a suggestion.

Du Heng shook his head again:

"Then he will only choose to cooperate with 'Si Ming' and the others.

"As for the 'future', it is not an awakener, so it cannot participate in this battle, and I have other things for it to do, such as eliminating hidden dangers."

Shang Jianyao thought of another matter, and said sadly:

"Why doesn't that nuclear warhead have a timed detonation function?"

"It's useless. If the electromagnetic environment doesn't return to normal, our side won't have the upper hand. Even if it's timed, they will cancel it." Du Heng sighed.

"What can we do?" Shang Jianyao showed a troubled expression.

After a brief silence, a machine in the room exploded with a bang.

On the other side, the gate became dark, as if hiding a looming female figure.

"You Gu"!

"Not good!" Du Heng's expression suddenly became solemn and serious, "'Broken Mirror' can't hold on anymore!"

Compared with the "Bodhi" who has monks to provide supplements, the "broken mirror" who has never said this to the sects under his command has been holding on.

The lights of the remaining machines in the room flickered violently, giving the impression that they too were about to explode.

"Si Ming", who was still entangled with "Bodhi", Shang Jianyao, and "Zhuang Sheng", all had smiles on their faces.

Smile at the dawn of victory.

At this moment, Shang Jianyao suddenly let out a "huh".

…………

Inside the whirlpool building, the entrance to the core research area.

A pair of military boots suddenly appeared there.

This belongs to Jiang Baimian.

She's back here again.

There are obvious tear stains around her eyes under the mask, but there is a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.

Jiang Baimian carried Shang Jianyao on his back, walked to the side of the experimental cabin, and put him down.

Then, she extended her spirit and touched Shang Jianyao's consciousness.

This time, behind the familiar darkness and twilight, Jiang Baimian saw not only Shang Jianyao, but also flashing lights of various colors and doors that were about to collapse.

During the exchange of consciousness, she did not "wear" the military exoskeleton device, and smiled at Shang Jianyao:

"Too bad, I lost my way back to that machine."

Shang Jian Yao was stunned for a moment, and said loudly:

"fraud!"

Jiang Baimian restrained his smile and asked seriously:

"If you only restore the electromagnetic environment in the core research area to normal for a minute, can you do it?"

Shang Jian Yao blurted out:

"Yes, but I refuse."

Jiang Baimian looked at him and said seriously:

"This is an order!"

Shang Jianyao was silent, and it took several seconds before he responded loudly with red eyes:

"Yes, team leader!"

Jiang Baimian showed a satisfied smile.

…………

In the core room of "New World", Du Heng also noticed Jiang Baimian's return.

He looked at Shang Jianyao in astonishment, Shang Jianyao nodded heavily to him, and said:

"One minute."

"Okay." Du Heng smiled gratifiedly.

He had originally planned to use his authority to make a last-ditch effort, and now he no longer hesitated.

The whole "New World" shrank inward suddenly, turning into layers of barriers, wrapping "Si Ming" and other executives inside, making them like mosquitoes in amber.

Du Heng was divided into multiple parts, turning into black shadows, wandering in the transparent barrier, blocking the attacks from "Si Ming" and other executives, preventing their power from seeping out.

He alone is definitely not enough. Shang Jianyao also separated multiple selves who are honest, jealous, calm and rational, and also fly around different parts of the barrier in the form of black shadows. "Mandala", "Siming" and other executives fought one after another.

Seeing this, the weak "Broken Mirror" didn't care about his own situation, and joined Du Heng and Shang Jianyao.

"Bodhi" followed closely behind.

"Truth" noticed something was wrong, and shouted loudly:

"There must be something wrong with the core research area!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his hands wrapped around himself, and he completely forgot what he wanted to do next.

"Truth" immediately saw a black shadow appearing on the barrier next to it, a black shadow with a white mask.

"The Last Man".

"You!" "Truth" cried out in horror.

"The Last Man" replied softly:

"I've thought about it, if you guys win, I'm sure I won't be able to survive, you are so arrogant, you won't allow the existence of executives in the same field as you.

"And 'Si Ming' they will definitely help you."

"Truth" forcefully retorted:

"Nothing."

"The Last Man" stopped talking, and also turned into a black shadow, wandering around.

The "Scorching Door" was also within the barrier, and she burst out with a strong desire to survive and began to resist.

"Si Ming" soon knew what might happen. She looked at Shang Jianyao and asked:

"Are you really not afraid of death?

"Don't you miss the stable life in the company?

"You are Zhisui now, as long as you help us imprison 'Zhuang Sheng', we are willing to recognize your status."

Except for two or three, most of Shang Jianyao laughed and said words that "Si Ming" could understand but couldn't understand from the bottom of their hearts:

"For all mankind!"

…………

Da, a tear slipped from the corner of Jiang Baimian's eye and hit the ground.

She had already pushed up the mask, and she was only observing the instrument panel above from the corner of her eye to judge whether the electromagnetic environment here had returned to normal.

At this time, a familiar female voice faintly sounded in her ears.

Voice from the Big Boss:

"Your parents, your brother and sister-in-law and their children, all escaped from the basement.

"Don't you wish to be reunited with them, and plan to die here?

"On the ashes, there are still many places you haven't been to, and there are still many folk customs you haven't touched. You haven't read so many interesting books in the 'Old World'..."

Jiang Baimian was silent for a few seconds, then sighed softly.

She turned a deaf ear, squatted down, and took out the small speaker with a blue background and a black surface from Shang Jianyao's tactical backpack.

Then, she smiled at the "sleeping" Shang Jianyao:

"This moment of saving all mankind, if you are awake, you will definitely ask for a song in the background.

"Satisfy you, but this time I will put what I like."

Jiang Baimian then turned on the small speaker and picked up the song he wanted to play.

At this time, the electromagnetic environment has not returned to normal.

"Si Ming" looked at Shang Jianyao again and said:

"Even if you can solve us and destroy the 'New World', it is impossible to completely end this disaster.

"So many awakened people are still alive, and the people from the Sixth and Eighth Houses are still alive. They will definitely slowly find out how to become stronger and find out a plan to create a 'new world'.

"At that time, it will be another catastrophe!

"It's better for us to live, control the world, and minimize the harm of disasters."

"Golden Balance" and other executives also persuaded Shang Jianyao and "Broken Mirror" with similar reasons.

They all know that the electromagnetic environment in the core research area will soon return to normal, and they still need three to five minutes to break through the restrictions imposed by "Zhuang Sheng" and other executives without reservation and power.

Shang Jian Yao laughed, and solemnly said to the executives:

"There are newcomers!"

…………

Inside the whirlpool building, in the core research area.

After choosing the song, Jiang Baimian, who was waiting for the opportunity to appear, faintly heard the voice of "Siming" again:

"If you continue, I will extract the consciousness of your parents and relatives now!

"Everyone is burned!"

Jiang Baimian smiled and said:

"Just a reunion."

She then smiled sarcastically:

"If you could do it, you would have done it long ago..."

Jiang Baimian hadn't finished speaking when he saw the dashboards returning to normal.

She stopped talking, sighed silently, and gave the detonation command to the nuclear bomb.

Soon, it will explode.

As long as the electromagnetic environment can maintain normal.

Jiang Baimian sat next to Shang Jianyao, pressed the small speaker, and closed his eyes.

The curses and threats of a famous old man echoed in her ears.

They originally thought that the key to this battle was the balance of power between the executives, their struggle with each other, and the bargaining chips that each could suppress.

Who knows, the gods have not yet decided the winner, but the mortals have dominated their lives.

The vast majority of Shang Jian Yao laughed, laughing so hard that tears flowed out.

In the relieved smiles of Du Heng, Li Hui, Lin Sui and others, he shouted to the seniors:

"Meet the real new world!"

Amidst the cursing and threats of the more and more frantic and frantic elders, Jiang Baimian, who had his eyes closed, heard the familiar music:

"Do you remember the dream when you were young?

"Like a flower that never fades..."

She hummed along in her heart, and white light burst out, occupying the space in an instant.

Rumble!

A huge mushroom cloud rose slowly in the valley, causing the ground to shake violently.
