Uplifting Journey

Under the dim moonlight, there is no trace of pollution and garbage on the vast coastline, and a large number of black figures that are difficult to recognize by ordinary people quietly surfaced like ghosts.

Every dark figure is separated by a distance of hundreds of meters. From the beach to the cliff, their figures are connected and almost cover the entire border of the coastal side of Duwang Town.

These humanoid creatures with changing colors and almost integrated with the environment are all members of the action group targeting "neutrals", or in other words, they are all "Cheng Bin".

Although they couldn't see any equipment on their bodies, these people all had physical fitness far beyond the limits of human beings and abilities based on soul energy.

Even if some of the special abilities derived from the ultimate life are weakened due to the severing of contact with the stand-in "Infinity", they still have the combat power to crush the special forces of various countries.

It is no exaggeration to say that with just a few people emerging from the coast, any military base in this country can be easily captured in a normal battle, and it is only a matter of time before the entire city is wiped out.

However, at this time and this place, their identities are just one-time cannon fodder for testing.

The blurred figures that appeared on the coastline at the same time, exchanged information through the soul network, and began to move towards the towns on land at the same time. They walked across the beach, climbed up the cliff, and crossed the woods, maintaining the distance between each other and using various methods. The path advances silently.

Even keen beasts can't detect the vague outlines that pass by and are almost integrated with the environment. The stealthy Cheng Bins should not be discovered by any life in this blank area of ​​civilization's supervision.

But the deadly attack came without warning and out of thin air——

Cheng Bin, who stepped across the boundary between the city and the suburbs and walked on the artificial path outside the woods, suddenly felt a burst of heat all over his body. Terrible energy gushed out from every bit of matter that made up his body, twisting and tearing all the molecules in his body in an instant.

"It's a feeling. It's like every atom is releasing nuclear energy."

As the last ray of perceptual information diffused and transmitted in the soul network, Cheng Bin, who did not know when he became a bomb, his body disintegrated and collapsed in the explosion from within, and the huge energy was hedged and annihilated in the distortion, making He didn't leave behind even a trace of ashes that could be discerned by the naked eye, and the devastating explosion didn't have much impact on the external environment.

Only a wisp of air flow caused by the disappearance of the human body can prove that something has just happened here.

And this silent explosion was just the beginning, a chain of destruction swept out, and at irregular time intervals, all the descendants of Cheng Bin who were moving forward at the same time were blown up to ashes.

On an uninhabited island reef that is extremely far from the coastline of Moriwang Town, a small and weird signal tower that looks like gold and jade sends and receives huge amounts of data through various information transmission channels. , a temporarily built thinking center is carrying the communication between different member groups after the action group is deliberately divided.

Only at this time, a conscious subject that can truly be called "Cheng Bin" will be temporarily formed at the intersection of indirectly connected soul subnets——

In other words, individuals in different soul sub-networks who are responsible for communication and docking give up part of their ego and authority at this moment, and temporarily integrate a new consciousness body that can coordinate global information.

Cheng Bin originally didn't want to do such a cumbersome operation—these operations were all forced out.

In fact, not too long has passed since he agreed to deal with the neutral person in Duwang Town in order to get in-depth contact with the substitute alliance—the kind of time that ordinary people perceive.

However, what happened in this seemingly short period of time is enough to burn the brains of any ordinary person. After all, the neutral person inherited something in the decisive battle between the world and the Platinum Star. Ability and time are closely related .

".Have all the human-shaped descendants on the coast rushed to the street? Looking at the position and order of death, the boundary of that guy's activities in the direction of the coast is like this."

In the thinking center hidden in the reef, Cheng Bin sketched on the three-dimensional picture of Duwang Town, and drew an irregular line in the direction of the town's coast, connecting it with other dense lines distributed around the town.

Cheng Bin groaned after observing the weird figure like a flattened giant slime made of death point lines covering the entire town.

".The observers and pretenders group are basically dead. Not even the tiny insects survived. On the contrary, the Wenwen-type offspring of the tourism group are basically safe, and they successfully entered Duwang Town. The probes are all the ones that lack key information and don't take any action on the target"

After pondering for a long time, Cheng Bin sighed in his heart: "The awakened double is really difficult. Fortunately, as the carrier of the double, he is just a human being, and he still has the habits and limits of human beings."

A large number of sacrifices outlined the outline of the monster——the strange death field consisting of death point lines covering the entire Duwang Town is actually the limit range of activities filled by the target's large number of action possibilities.

Although the boundary of the domain is imminent, and it is difficult for the life that acts on the target to penetrate into the domain, but after Cheng Bin analyzed and calculated the data abstracted from the picture, he roughly knew the activity status of the target.

It looks like the human-shaped daughters that collectively rushed to the street in the direction of the coast. Although the time and location of their death are different, some subtle rules can be discovered inside——

For example, they all died at a position just out of the complex environment and into the normal range of human vision.

For example, their seemingly disordered death time difference is actually exactly equal to the difference between the time it takes for an ordinary person to walk from the only car road to the point of death. It takes time to cross different terrains at the death point.

It may not be easy to understand if you only look at the direction of the coast, but if you look at the situation in other places in Moriwang Town, the target's movement method is a bit clear——

The monster crawling on Duwang Town, its death field is not without dead ends to resist everything, it is like a passenger station deep inside the town, the passengers on the bus will officially enter the sight of the death monster after getting off the bus and exiting the station.

The target has an intriguing behavior pattern. He will destroy all life that threatens him in the short "future" in the upper reaches of time, but he will never leave the "present Moriou Town" no matter in terms of space or time. too far—

He would drive to the coast to kill the infiltrators, but he would not dive into the sea to kill the infiltrators at an earlier time, nor would he follow the path of the bus to another city to kill the people who got on the bus.

Combining all aspects of the death data, Cheng Bin has locked the "starting point" of all the activities of the target, and roughly knows the core, time point and location of the death field covering Duwang Town.

As expected, it was a single-family villa area in the northeast of Morioh Town, and the information provided by Polnareff and the script was correct.

".The core start time of the target activity is related to the first observed out-of-the-air explosion. It should be the first round of contact plan that directly caused all of this, although the plan was finished before it started. It involves time. The line problem is really difficult to deal with.

".The Killer Queen's Time Bomb, Loser Eats Dust, what is the current law of operation?"

Cheng Bin is aware of the substitute ability possessed by the target in the original script, the kind of bomb that can turn back time. But it is obvious that the awakened substitute of the target in this world has power far beyond the scope of the plot setting—at least the flexibility to use it As far as the two are concerned, they are not on the same level at all.

The separation from the substitute "infinity" weakened Cheng Bin's ability to observe changes in the timeline to the limit. Although he did not completely lose his senses, it was difficult for him to obtain multiple times directly before the research on the substitute came out. The specific memory of the line is gone.

Fortunately, the death of each plan execution sub-body at the beginning of the plan itself is a manifestation of the timeline change, which allows Cheng Bin to more or less grasp the key point of the timeline change.

However, even if you figured out part of the target's situation, it would be extremely troublesome to deal with such a guy who could turn back time.

Due to the lack of some abilities of the ultimate life, Cheng Bin has a lot less things at hand, and considering that he will have further contact with the substitute alliance represented by Polnareff, he cannot use some controversial methods casually.

At least this is the case before the target touches the more distant past or future, and the range of timeline changes expands to affect the current observation research.

The annual catastrophe period is approaching. During this time, my parents want to force me to see a psychiatrist. Introverted Xijing and bachelor parties are both original sins.

I don't want to write at all, and I can't hold it back anymore. I don't know if the rhythm of life will change after the Spring Festival is over.
