Infinite Throne

   Chapter 96 Grey Fog No Man's Land

   "Who else could it be if it wasn't me?" Yi Rin smiled slightly and stepped forward.

  Ling Yiyi.

  Irin silently read the girl's name in her heart.

"sit."

   The girl smiled lightly, moved her body to the side, patted the bench beside her, and motioned Irin to sit down.

  Irin didn't refuse either, sitting side by side with the girl.

   But the shoulders of the two of them kept a distance of about twenty centimeters.

After   Irin sat down, he quietly looked forward without speaking.

   "You... how come you lied to the dean that my personalities don't match?"

  Ling Yiyi's tone was a bit complaining.

"Ha ha."

  Irin smiled without explaining much.

   "You guy..." Seeing that Yi Rin didn't explain, Ling Yiyi didn't ask any more questions.

  Irin closed her eyes.

   Enjoy a rare moment of tranquility.

   Peaceful like water.

   As if by her side, all troubles, all pains, all memories will be diluted by the tranquility around her, and everything will become irrelevant.

   As long as she's there, it's fine.

   All is well.

"you…"

  Ling Yiyi suddenly turned her head and "gazing" at Yi Rin: "You seem to be a little different."

   Yi Rin's fingers trembled slightly, although she knew that Ling Yiyi couldn't see, but for some reason, facing her eyes, Yi Rin always had the illusion that she was seeing through her mind, and looked away without a trace: "What's the difference?"

  Ling Yiyi tilted her head, and a wisp of soft bangs fell: "Well...I can't tell you either. I feel that the taste on your body has become a little different."

smell?

  Irin's face changed slightly.

   He knew that after Ling Yiyi suffered from "optic atrophy" many years ago, her vision deteriorated and she eventually became completely blind.

   But at the same time, her sense of smell and hearing are far sharper than ordinary people. This smell…

   Could it be that he still smells of blood?

  Irin rubbed it hard before going out this morning.

   It should not leave a **** smell.

   "You have a cold." Irin said firmly.

"Bah, you just caught a cold." Ling Yiyi spat lightly, but didn't dwell on the matter for too long, and asked softly, "You should have finished the 'retest', right? How are your grades? Which university are you going to apply for? ...is it far from here?"

   "Well, fortunately, I haven't planned yet."

   "Are you okay lately?"

  Irin smiled and said, "No, everything is normal."

   "Really?" Ling Yiyi lowered her head.

   "Yeah." Irin affirmed.

   "You..." Ling Yiyi suddenly asked in a low voice, "You shouldn't have a girlfriend, right?"

  Irin heard the words and was stunned for a moment.

  Ling Yiyi giggled and continued, "You smell perfume."

  “!”

  Irin hurriedly rolled up her clothes and sniffed it carefully.

"No…"

   He just wanted to deny it, but the next moment, he laughed dumbly, and only then did he realize that Ling Yiyi was testing him.

   "That's why I said, I don't get along with you."

  Ling Yiyi's tone was a little more surprised: "You actually have a girlfriend? Are you beautiful?"

   "Uh, not really. But I did meet a friend, um, quite a good friend."

   "Really?" Ling Yiyi smiled slightly: "If you have time, let me get to know you? After all, we have known each other for all these years, haven't we? Let me help you check it out, right?"

   "I said I'm not a girlfriend anymore..." Irin retorted.

   "Hee hee..." Ling Yiyi suddenly narrowed her eyes and laughed.

   His eyes are curved like two crescent moons.

   "Okay, I believe you."

  Irin shrugged helplessly: "Okay, I have nothing to do, I'll go first."

"it is good."

  Ling Yiyi nodded, didn't say anything, just put on the headphones again, closed her eyes, and smiled quietly.

  Irin's expression was calm, and she walked forward for some distance.

   Suddenly, Yi Rin turned around and stared at the quiet figure in the corner of the yard through the brilliant sunlight.

   This look is like traveling through time and space.

   quietly overlapped the figure in memory with the quiet shadow not far away.

  “…”

   Soon, Irin took a deep breath and closed his eyes.

When    opened his eyes again, there was no longer any fluctuation in Yi Rin's eyes, calm like water.

  Irin came to Ling Wuyan's side.

   "Her name is Ling Yiyi, protect her at all costs. But don't let her know of your existence."

  Ling…?

  Ling nodded silently.

   He seemed to understand everything in an instant.

   and...the meaning of why he survived.

  …

  …

   Since that day, I unintentionally used my thoughts.

After   Irin returned home, he began to test the limits of his current "psychic power".

  Irin is very clear that, whether it is strength, agility or spirit, these three main attributes all have "limits".

   And this so-called limit seems to be the limit of "human" life.

   But throughout the ages, there have always been many "superhumans" that cannot be explained by human science.

  In Yi Rin's view, the "superhumans" who have left a strong history in history through the ages are nothing more than breaking the "limits" in some respects, reaching a new realm, and becoming an existence beyond ordinary people.

   Arrived… extraordinary.

   And this so-called "limit", in the circle of apostles, is called "lock".

After the    attribute is quantified, the recognized "lock" is 10 points.

   Whether it is apostles or ordinary people, there are "locks".

  Only by unlocking the "lock" can we break through the limits of human beings and achieve extraordinary achievements.

  Once you reach the supernatural, the abilities displayed are far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

   In the trial of Guiwu Mountain, whether it was the power that Oda Mai showed at the end or the speed that Wen Manni showed before the "ghost transformation", although it was scary, it was not so scary that it was incomprehensible.

   What they have reached is the "limit" of human beings.

   There are traces to follow, and there are reasons to follow.

   But in that trial, Yi Rin easily increased his mental attribute to more than 10 points, showing a terrifying psychic power, his gestures, and the landslides. No wonder Wen Manni shouted "cheating".

  Irin in that state is indeed no different from "cheating".

   After going through the trial of the Ghost Mist Mountain, without the blessing of the ghost buff, Irin's attribute value has returned to normal.

   But the mental lock was unexpectedly loosened, and Irin actually regained control of the "psychic power".

   The ability that should be mastered after breaking through the mental lock, but now it is displayed in advance.

  Although it's a little weird, it's not a bad thing anyway.

  Irin sat on the sofa, a thought moved, and the coffee cup floated into the air.

   Then he stretched out his "tentacles" again, trying to tear open a packet of instant coffee, trying to pour it into a cup.

   hiss—

  The coffee powder was all spilled on the ground.

   "Isn't it that easy?"

  …

  …

   Ten days passed in a blink of an eye.

   Inside the Irin House.

   Many pieces of clothing floated silently in the room, and then it was like countless invisible hands, folded quickly in mid-air, and then folded one by one in an orderly manner.

  Irin opened her eyes, a thin layer of sweat covering her forehead.

   "13 seconds."

  Irin silently counted the time.

   Then he glanced at the consumption of psionic points.

   In the past ten days, after returning from Yiwu County, Yi Rin did not step out of the door again, and devoted himself to exercising "psychic power".

   It's just a pity that compared to the power shown by Yi Rin in the Guiwu Mountain trial, the "psychic power" at this moment can only be regarded as a "family harmony version" at most, and its lethality is limited.

   Whether it is fineness, power, or stamina, it is far inferior to the power displayed in the trial of Guiwu Mountain.

   Lifting the weight of the object with telekinesis is at most the weight of Blood Jasmine.

   And the distance covered by telekinesis is only 21 meters.

  In terms of the number of psychic tentacles, Yilin can currently control up to 9 objects stably at the same time.

   And not too heavy.

   "It seems that the mental attribute is too low."

  Irin smiled and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

  Washing… while wrapping up.

   No matter what ability it is, it must be mastered to the level of an arm and a finger in order to play the greatest role.

   Psychodynamics...or "skills"...that's all.

  Irin never relies too much on certain abilities. In his opinion, the abilities and skills of an apostle are just tools.

   The only thing that can really make the walking step stronger is the attribute.

   In the previous life, Irin had long been able to master psychic power.

   What Irin is practicing now is to make this "weakened version of telekinesis" more compatible with his current attributes.

  More patterns, temporarily unavailable.

  —Slightly sorry.

  Irin took a shower and changed into a sweater that was easy to move around, and put all the spare luggage and some compressed food into the storage space.

   The storage space of the first-order apostle is only one cubic meter in size. After this pile of daily necessities is stuffed in, the storage space seems to be a lot crowded.

   Early this morning, Molly had already made more than a dozen deadly chasing calls, frantically urging.

   All members of the investigation team are already at the gate of Jing'an Hotel and can leave at any time.

   Except Irin.

  …

"you are late!"

   Molly stared at Irin who was walking slowly, gritted her teeth, and said word by word.

  Irin looked at the time with a calm expression.

  08:59.

Snapped.

  09:00.

   "Just right." Irin smiled slightly.

"Humph." At this moment, beside Molly, a decent middle-aged man wearing short sleeves and gold-rimmed glasses, looking about 50 years old, snorted coldly and looked at Yi Rin with a pale expression on his face. Kind of unpleasant.

"Xiao Li, this is what you call an intern researcher? How many of us are waiting for him? I have no sense of time. Where did this person get from the investigation team? Wouldn't you think that this investigation Anyone can enter the team, right?"

Molly frowned. When she heard this, she felt a little unhappy, but she still explained: "He is not a related household, but a friend of mine. He just graduated from Qingcheng High School and has a certain understanding of 'Taxue', so... "

"Understood?" The middle-aged man with glasses was furious when he heard the words: "Let him participate in the investigation of the tower just because he understands? This is not a home game! We are a professional investigation and observation operation this time! Xiaoli, although the above specified You are the person in charge of the investigation team, but if the progress of the investigation is delayed due to other 'non-professionals', or something goes wrong, I will definitely report it truthfully!"

   Molly said impatiently: "Irin joined the investigation team as an intern researcher. It has been approved by the above. Even if you object, it is useless."

"Okay, okay..." At this time, another tall man with a kind expression, about 30 years old, with a slightly higher hairline, came over and persuaded: "Isn't this also coming? The meeting time was exactly nine in the morning. This guy is not late, not late, just one sentence less..."

  Irin has been silently listening to the arguments of several people, and didn't say much.

intern-researcher?

  Irin narrowed his eyes slightly.

   The instruction he originally received from Zhao Yulong was to protect the investigation team.

   But I didn't expect it to be such a deceitful identity.

The    investigation team consisted of seven people, including Irin.

   Although Molly is young, she was directly appointed as the leader of the investigation team, perhaps because of her incompetence.

   is the captain.

   The investigation team didn't seem to have a very harmonious atmosphere.

  Professional academic researchers seem to have a stinky problem, and they all think that Laozi is the best in the world.

   In addition to Molly's age and qualifications, it is understandable that some people have some criticisms of Molly.

   Along with the investigation team, there is also a special group field team.

   Five-man squad.

   This is just a routine outdoor investigation, so this team of field staff is not equipped with too many exaggerated heavy weapons, just conventional equipment, lightly loaded.

  After Yi Rin arrived at the entrance of Jing'an Hotel, other than the man with glasses at the beginning, the rest of the research team didn't say much, but only everyone knew what was in their hearts.

   The sun at nine in the morning in August is not too harsh, but it is also a bit dazzling.

   A maglev bus was parked in front of the Jing'an Hotel. Later, Yi Rin heard that the bus had been modified for military use and had reached the military-grade bulletproof level, and ordinary live ammunition could not penetrate the armor of this bus at all.

   "Aren't you angry?"

   While others were loading luggage and various precision measuring instruments on the bus, Molly quietly ran to Irin and asked in a low voice.

   "Angry, why should I be angry?"

   Yi Rin was startled when he heard the words.

"The person who scolded you just now is called Ju Xiuyuan. He is an authoritative expert in the study of 'Tower Science'. He is also a doctor of mechanical dynamics and quantum mechanics. In some respects, he is more professional than me. It's not really anything, it's just a little more truthful."

   Molly briefly introduced each member of the investigation team to Irin, and briefly mentioned their areas of expertise.

  Irin had a headache listening to the messy subject, and he didn't ask any questions, so he just answered a few words casually.

   Molly saw that Irin was really not angry, so she felt relieved and began to direct the loading of equipment.

  Irin was a little puzzled.

  This girl, shouldn't she be worried about herself, and she will kill people if she is unhappy?

   Well, am I that cruel?

   (Bai Xiaoyi: "?")

   (Nie Hongxiu: "?")

  While the investigation team members were busy loading, one of the field staff quietly touched it and stuffed a micro-communicator into Irin's hand.

   "Leader, I'm the team leader of this team, Wang Bing, just call me Xiao Wang as the leader."

  Wang Bing looks very young, in his 20s, with a neatly shaved head, wearing a black vest, and a string of light equipment hanging around his waist.

  The military-grade micro-communicator is very small, smaller than the little fingernail, and sticks in the ear canal, basically invisible from the outside.

Yi Rin quietly pasted the micro-communication device, Wang Bing laughed: "Leader, you don't have to be nervous, Zhao Boss has told me that if there is no major incident, I will be responsible for the safety of the scene, but if something cannot be solved, I will only be responsible for it. I will let the leader of the Iraqi team take action.”

   At first, when Wang Bing received this order, he was very puzzled.

   This little hairy head, who doesn't seem to have all the hair, is actually the official member of the "special group"?

   No matter how you look at it, Wang Bing can't see what's special about Yi Rin.

   But out of absolute obedience to the order, Wang Bing did not show any doubts about Yilin, and behaved very naturally.

   "Perhaps, the young son of a certain family came to the grassroots to train?"

   Wang Bing guessed silently in his heart.

   Just as the investigation team was about to leave.

  The top of a building in Qingcheng.

   There was a flash of light.

   gone in a flash.

  …

  The Tower of Death is located at the junction of Jiaoyan Province, Chuan Province and Xizhou Province.

   On November 11, 2111, the moment the Tower of Death appeared, there were more than 200 million people on the side, and it evaporated out of thin air.

   Centered on the Tower of Death, with a radius of 50 kilometers, it is still an uninhabited ruin, shrouded in a thick gray fog all day long.

   This circle of uninhabited ruins is called "no man's land".

   Qingcheng is located in Xizhou Province, only more than 100 kilometers away from the no-man’s land.

   At the speed of a maglev bus, under good road conditions, it takes less than 20 minutes to reach the edge of the no-man’s land.

   Of course, this is still the case when the speed is not too fast.

  Wang Bing, as a professional soldier, is very familiar with driving this kind of means of transportation, and he directly acts as a driver without saying much.

   The other four field staff also sat in the four corners of the bus.

   During the driving process of the maglev bus, it was smooth and stable, and you could hardly feel the slightest bump.

   Molly lowered her head, and swayed slightly.

   Yi Rin saw that this girl didn't know if she stayed up late last night, but after a while, she actually fell asleep.

   Upon seeing this, Yi Rin didn't say much, just silently driving his psychic power, forming an invisible "pillow" near Molly's chin, holding Molly's slightly shaking head firmly.

   By the way, it is regarded as an exercise "mind power".

  Except for Molly who was dozing off, the expert who angered Yi Rin at the entrance of Jing'an Hotel before... Ju Xiuyuan, sitting in the back row, was in high spirits along the way, talking about all kinds of data that Yi Rin couldn't understand at all.

   And other people actually listened with relish, and occasionally made bursts of exclamations.

  Irin didn't say a word along the way, and An Xin was a little transparent.

  Ju Xiuyuan's eyes glanced at Yi Rin and Molly from time to time, and his eyes were vaguely unkind.

   In his opinion, Yi Rin was just a "scoundrel" who was plugged in by a certain relationship, so that he could go back and improve his resume.

   Ju Xiuyuan will never give a good face to this kind of **** who has no professional knowledge at all.

   Suck.

   When Molly woke up with the halach, she was shocked to find that her halal curled up into a small lump at the corner of her mouth, floating around her mouth.

   This fright almost made her **** back her jerk.

"you!"

   This fright made Molly wake up immediately.

  Irin smiled slightly and quietly withdrew his psychic power.

Snapped.

   A small slob of saliva landed on Molly's pant leg.

  Irin smiled and made a "shush" gesture.

   Molly gritted her teeth. Fortunately, the two of them were sitting alone away from other people. There were seats in the front row blocking them, and they couldn't see their little movements.

   Molly hurriedly wiped the corners of her mouth and glared at Yi Rin, but with "outsiders" here, Molly didn't have any trouble, so she asked softly, "Arrived?"

"Um."

  Irin subconsciously touched the death mark on his chest.

   The closer he got to the tower, Irin could clearly feel the existence of "it" even with his eyes closed.

   Even with closed eyes, in the dark consciousness, in the direction of the tower, there seems to be a layer of gray fog, and there is a magnificent tower in the fog, rising into the sky and not entering the sky.

   This is the induction between the apostle and the tower.

  Wang Bing stopped the car and said loudly: "There is no man's land in front, because the view is too poor, the car can't drive in, everyone is ready to get off and walk into the no-man's land!"

   Ask for a recommendation ticket!
