I'm not sick! So do my other personalities!

Binhai City, suburbs, abandoned school.

Taking the rusty iron gate as the boundary, looking into the school through the gap of the iron gate, under the blue sky and white clouds, the lush vegetation surrounds the peeling paint teaching building, showing the tranquility of the campus; outside the iron gate, the overwhelming The numbers cover everything, turning the originally empty wilderness into a digital world.

A tall, short, fat, and thin high-ranking compatible person stood in twos and threes in this digital world. All eyes were directed at the four humanoid silhouettes in front of the iron gate.

"[Dimension Enlargement Plan], execute now!"

The strange sound waves emitted from the head of "Dr. An" sounded simultaneously in the digital world and the quiet campus.

The ups and downs of this sound wave are not syllables that can be produced by living things on earth.

Except for Zhou Zhen, all the "Ninth Ladder" compatibility present were not boarders, and none of them could understand the language of "Dr. An".

Only Zhou Zhen, after hearing this sound wave, his expression suddenly changed!

This planet civilization numbered 142857 does not give them a chance to negotiate at all, and they will directly start the [Dimension Enlargement Plan]!

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhen immediately used [Overfrequency Interference] to simultaneously transmit the translation information of the sound waves to everyone present.

However, at this moment, deep in his mind, he suddenly felt a heartbreaking pain!

As soon as this pain appeared, it quickly intensified, and the familiar pain spread throughout Zhou Zhen's body like an electric shock.

It seemed like countless sharp knives were piercing into the brain and stirring it up at the same time, just like when Zhou Zhen was sick before.

But the pain at this moment is more intense than ever! More extreme!

"Well--!"

Zhou Zhen immediately raised his hands, pressed his head firmly, and let out an inarticulate, pain-filled roar.

His thinking quickly became chaotic, and the terrifying cramping pain was like a surging flood, instantly swallowing up all his senses, thoughts, and ideas, making him completely unable to concentrate and unable to think at all.

Someone seemed to be approaching him, someone shouted his name loudly, someone stretched out his arms towards him... But Zhou Zhen's pupils were slightly dilated, and his eyes were filled with strange lights, and he couldn't hear clearly at all.

His vision was also blurring rapidly, and there seemed to be a harsh noise of electricity coming from his ears, and his eyes were filled with dense black and white horizontal and vertical lines.

Bah, bah, bah... bah...

Bah, bah, bah, bah, bah...

In the midst of the chaos, there seemed to be terrifying movements happening all around.

Moreover, the commotion is getting louder and louder, with no intention of calming down.

However, when all the sounds and vibrations reached Zhou Zhen's ears, they turned into a series of electric sounds with unknown meaning and fluctuations.

In the hazy state, it seemed like a long time passed, and it seemed like it was just a moment. It seemed that it had reached a certain critical point. The messy sounds in the ears suddenly faded away, and the headache disappeared in an instant.

Like a drowning person finally touching the air again, Zhou Zhen suddenly raised his head and saw that he was sitting in a familiar classroom. The podium was empty, and there was no one between the neatly arranged desks.

He sat alone behind a desk in the middle of the classroom and looked around. It was dark and deep, the curtains were not drawn, and there was a turbid darkness outside the glass, and nothing could be seen.

In the poorly lit classroom, all the textbooks, notebooks, and homework books were missing, and the desks were neatly tidied.

Zhou Zhen looked down at the desk in front of him and found a test paper spread out on the dark table.

The paper with black marks on the white background is densely packed with questions.

Below the question, there is a detailed solution process written line by line. They have many steps and complex derivation, which seems to make you dizzy at a glance.

Looking at this scene, Zhou Zhen suddenly felt that his heart was empty, as if he had forgotten many memories, and seemed to have no interest in anything.

But at the same time, he felt that his thinking speed had become extremely fast.

Somehow, as if some restriction had been lifted, he had a very strong feeling that he was about to become another person!

To be precise, another life form!

This is an unprecedented experience, but deep down in Zhou Zhen's heart, he does not reject this change at all...

Click!

At this moment, the door handle of the front door of the classroom was suddenly turned.

Zhou Zhen immediately walked toward the front door of the classroom. He stared at the inconspicuous door and felt that the scene in front of him was extremely familiar. He seemed to have experienced it before!

The next moment, the door was opened, and a slim and vigorous figure wearing a Chinese-style skirt walked in with brisk steps.

The other party has exactly the same face and figure as Tao Nange...it is the second drop of "digital rain"!

The moment he saw the second drop of "digital rain", the familiar feeling in Zhou Zhen's heart disappeared instantly.

"Teacher, what's wrong?" Zhou Zhen asked calmly.

The second drop of "Digital Rain" walked quickly to Zhou Zhen, and emitted a flurry of sound waves from his head: "2626744 doesn't look like an enemy. Do you need me to take action?"

Zhou Zhen subconsciously wanted to analyze the entire current situation, but looking at this "Digital Rain" who looked exactly like Tao Nange, his cold, indifferent and empty heart suddenly felt a little more "human" again. .

Spurred by this emotion, he seemed to have forgotten how to think, and replied very high-minded: "Take action!"

※※※

Binhai City, periphery.

The Ghost Team, the Starry Sky Law Enforcement Corps, the Deep Sea Patrol... emblems surrounded by dark flames were everywhere, and cordons of various colors criss-crossed the entire Binhai City.

Looking past the layers of blockade and looking into the city, the once prosperous high-rise buildings, roads, lakes, and garden landscapes... have all been transformed into a vast ocean of numbers.

Above Binhai City, the originally blue sky, or to be precise, the corresponding area of ​​the atmosphere, has also been transformed into tiny, crawling figures.

But the sky outside Binhai City is extremely normal.

This scene is very weird, just like the ghost pictures in PS, forcibly splicing two painting style layers together.

Inside Binhai City, there are dense numbers, while outside Binhai City, it is nature as usual.

Dozens of large-scale equipment were placed directly in the fields outside the cordon, with temporary tents pulled above them, and lines of various colors strung out and dragged among the weeds.

beep... beep... beep...

The faint sound of the breathing lamp came and went.

Staff members wearing various uniforms all looked serious and were constantly operating instruments. From time to time they dialed a number and reported quickly.

Duan Lihe pushed aside two members of the Starry Sky Law Enforcement Corps who were also in a hurry, walked quickly to the muscular figure wearing a gradient purple ghost armor, and asked without any nonsense: "Have everyone evacuated?"

The figure was looking intently at a holographic projection screen. After hearing this, she turned around. The iconic ghost armor of the ghost team was worn on her body, full of a sense of lightness and elegance. Her body was not burly, but it gave people a There was a strong sense of oppression, as if there was terrifying energy contained in the body.

It’s Ghost No. 007!

No. 007 looked at Duan Lihe and replied: "All ordinary people detected have been evacuated."

"We can't continue to stay here now."

"If the numbers in Binhai City continue to spread, this place will also fall."

Duan Lihe breathed a sigh of relief. Compatible members of the "Ninth Ladder" from various countries gathered in Binhai City this time. In order to prevent accidents, the superiors asked them to speed up the rescue operation in Binhai City.

Now, they have just withdrawn from Binhai City, and the entire Binhai City is inexplicably swallowed up by the numbers!

The survivors were successfully evacuated, and a considerable amount of supplies were rescued... Overall, the mission has been successfully completed.

But the current situation in Binhai City, I don’t know what happened...

Just as he was thinking about it, Duan Lihe's visual sensor suddenly popped up an urgent message from a very high-level boss: "Try to contact Zhou Zhen, hurry!"

Duan Lihe didn't hesitate at all and immediately responded: "I have contacted you several times just now, but without success."

As soon as this message was sent, the other party sent another request: "Let the ghost team contact No. 024!"

"Ask Tan Wenyu, the girl from Binhai Art Academy who was rescued by Zhou Zhen before, to contact her!"

Seeing these two sentences, Duan Lihe couldn't help but be slightly startled.

Although No. 024 of the Ghost Group is not very high on the "digital ladder", he is an official member after all. It is natural for him to go through fire and water in emergency situations.

But Tan Wenyu, a student at the School of Art, is just a little girl who has just become a compatible person. Even if the other party is willing to join the official, she is still a novice without any training and memory transplantation...

But soon, Duan Lihe realized that when Zhou Zhen fought with the [Leader] before, the opponent's other personality came out of Tan Wenyu!

This thing is very special.

So Duan Lihe specifically reported it to his superiors at that time.

Now, Binhai City is blocked by this sudden digital signal, and ordinary signals cannot be transmitted.

But Tan Wenyu should be different. There is also No. 024 of the ghost team, you can also give it a try!

Thinking of this, Duan Lihe immediately replied: "Received! Execute immediately!"

Then, he looked at the ghost No. 007 beside him and said quickly: "There is an urgent mission from above. Please contact No. 024 immediately!"

Binhai City, suburbs, outside an abandoned school.

One after another "Ninth Staircase" compatibility people stood in the digital world, looking at the four humanoid silhouettes in front of the school gate. At this moment, the sound wave from "Dr. An" had just fallen. Zhou Zhen, who was standing next to No. 001, His face suddenly changed, and he immediately held his head with both hands and fell straight down like a piece of wood!

"Zhou Zhen! Zhou Zhen! Zhou Zhen..."

No. 001 was startled. He, the head of the Starry Sky Law Enforcement Corps, the Deep Sea Patrol Corps, and the two old men in regular uniforms acted quickly and immediately formed a defensive formation to protect Zhou Zhen in the middle. At the same time, he shouted Zhou Zhen's name loudly, trying to recall him. His sanity.

At this time, although no one understood the meaning of the sound waves emitted by [Pioneer], they all reacted when they saw one of the Chinese compatible people suddenly falling to the ground.

"That burst of sound waves may be the 'digital domain', and that young man from China was caught!"

"They are not here to negotiate, but to start a war!"

"Hmph! Number 142857...their energy is only the 'ninth ladder'! Four life forms dare to challenge all of us here, they are too arrogant!"

"Arrogant life forms, give them some color!"

"Our laboratory in Star Flower Kingdom just lacks a few drops of 'digital rain'..."

As he spoke, all the compatible people on the "Ninth Step" present immediately took action!

Terrifying light and heat appeared out of thin air in the area where the four [Pioneers] were. The crisscrossing light was like a sharp laser, cutting the space into countless fragments. After the momentary fluctuation, it showed a wave-like trajectory, oscillating. Crush all matter.

In an instant, the four [Pioneers] and the space they were in suffered countless blows!

All the "Ninth Ladder" compatible people who took action invariably used the most unpretentious energy system "Digital Domain".

These high-level compatibility people have been promoted all the way up and have had many interactions with "digital viruses", "digital forests" and "digital rain"!

No matter how they verbally belittle the four [Pioneers] in front of them, every high-level compatible person knows very well in his heart that as humans on earth, the biggest gap between them and alien civilizations is knowledge! It’s insight!

Therefore, you can’t play with the rules of “digital rain”! You can’t compete with “digital rain” in mathematics!

Their biggest advantage now is the large number of people! It’s full of energy!

So, compare energy!

They want to use pure energy to directly suppress the four [Pioneers] from the front!

At this moment, "Dr. An" and four other [Pioneers] stood extremely calmly, watching the overwhelming attacks about to touch them. A huge metal sarcoma suddenly rose from the ground that was completely covered by numbers!

This metal sarcoma is like a nightmare creation. An ordinary person would want to faint on the spot just by looking at it. Its body is also covered with more large and small metal lumps. The level of horror is unimaginable.

At the same time, a giant two-dimensional eyeball rose from the ground to the left of the metal sarcoma.

The eyeballs look like exaggerated caricatures, with weird proportions. The pupils occupy two-thirds of the area. They are dark and cold, like black holes. The whites of the eyes are densely covered with bloodshot eyes, full of madness and exhaustion.

A mouth made purely of light rose from the ground to the right of the metal sarcoma.

The color of the light's mouth is similar to the sunlight at dusk. Between the light and shadow, you can see the thick outline of the lips.

At the same time, a huge wall suddenly fell from the sky covered in numbers!

Boom!

The digital world seemed to be shaken heavily, and countless tiny numbers splashed around like dust.

The so-called giant wall is actually a giant octagonal metal shield!

On the left side of the giant metal shield, a metal human face is slowly hanging down; on the right side of the giant shield, there is a ball of metal "seaweed" intertwined together. They are all dark, as if they are countless slender sea snakes. The roundworm-like body is constantly stretching outwards, and like tentacles covered with suckers, it is tearing itself apart from the upper layers of the body.

Boom boom boom boom! ! !

The next moment, all the attacks came down like a violent storm.

The terrifying energy caused unimaginable shock waves, instantly generating circles of substantial sonic boom clouds.

The escaping energy rushed in all directions, shattering the surrounding space with a snap of his fingers, causing spiderweb-like cracks to appear in the overwhelming numbers.

As soon as the crack appeared, a flood of numbers surged out, quickly filling the space and returning the digital world to normal.

The light, shadow, heat, coldness... all dispersed, and the four [Pioneers] stood on the spot safe and sound. In front of them, the six-headed giant was like a towering city wall, covering them firmly.

The six-headed giants were now covered with holes and scars all over their bodies. They looked extremely miserable.

In front of them, there are mottled cracks and fine numbers intertwined. The digital world that was forcibly destroyed by the majestic energy is recovering quickly.

Looking at these six giant monsters with grotesque shapes, the expressions of all those compatible with the "Ninth Step" present changed. They were infected!

Moreover, they all know the specific situation of these six giant infected people...

[Complete body] Infected person, [Hive of knowledge]!

[Complete Body] Infected Person, [Eye of True Seeing]!

[Complete form] Infected person, [Whisper of Exile]!

[Complete Body] Infected, [Guardian]!

[Complete body] Infected person, [Leader]!

[Complete body] infected person, [blasphemer]!
