Boundless Darkness 61

Kai Xin had a dream. In the dream, her teacher took her hand and told her earnestly: “After you go to college, you should study hard and live well.”

This dream was too short, and it didn’t leave any traces in her mind. It was just that when she woke up, she remembered in a trance—she was going to college next week.

Going to university, these three words were within reach for her, but now they suddenly become far away, and even those ordinary days in the first world have also become far away in her memory.

She has experienced too many things, and every day feels like a year. She also met too many people in this strange new world. She met, communicated with these people, interacted with them, and finally parted ways with them. Those people either died under her gun or became strangers with her.

She has met some good people, but there are too few good people in the true sense. Instead, there are more people who fall between black and white. People in this new world are either enemies, potential enemies, or strangers.

It seems that only Adam has maintained a stable relationship with Kai Xin.

“You’re awake.” Su Rong probed her head and looked at her lying on the sofa, “Do you want to eat? Saker made coir raincoat cucumbers, which are very refreshing. But I didn’t buy steamed buns, I only bought ones with a taste similar to Da Lieba bread.”

Kai Xin propped himself up from the sofa and said “OK”.

She was very hungry. After fighting last night, she only gave herself a few nutritional injections to provide her body with recovery energy, but her stomach was still empty.

After Su Rong got the response, she went to the stairs and shouted: “Saker Falcon! The spearhead viper has woken up, bring the food here.”

He Kangshi said repeatedly, “Come here, come here!”

He went upstairs with a thud, holding the food in the tray firmly.

“The conditions are simple. The porridge is made from oatmeal, and the dishes are prepared casually. Sister, take your time! Ashes and I have eaten it before!”

“Thank you.” Kai Xin’s voice was very hoarse, and the voice changer of the mask was still on.

He Kangshi said: “Why are you being polite to me!”

“If your hands are inconvenient, do you want me to feed you?” Su Rong carefully looked at the mechanical arm hanging on Kai Xin’s chest.

Kai Xin shook his head, and removed the gauze covering the joint between his left arm and the mechanical arm.

There was only very little blood on the gauze, because her wounds healed quickly due to the regeneration of flesh and blood. She is using an old model of mechanical prosthetics, without a signal transmitter connected to her brain, and the functions of the prosthetics are relatively ordinary. The operation last night was really rushed, and I couldn’t find a better one, but it is convenient for daily life. A few moderate battles are enough.

After the fierce battle last night, she didn’t even have time to clean her body and change her clothes.

Kai Xin slept for eight hours, Su Rong worried about her condition and checked several times, and found that her clothes were covered with various scratches and cuts, the cuffs were torn, the sleeve of her left arm was completely broken, and the edge of the clothes The horns were clotted with dark brown blood. And she smelled of war and gunpowder, Saker whispered to her last night that he had smelled that smell, it was the smell of explosives.

She disappeared suddenly during the power outage in Beluga City. No matter how you contacted her for half an hour, she could not be contacted. Two hours after the power outage ended, she finally appeared, with a broken arm and a new mechanical arm. She looked horrible .

Su Rong carefully handed Kai Xin a few alcohol wipes, watched her clean up the remaining brown marks on her hands and mechanical prosthetic limbs, and watched her make a hole in the mask, and control the mechanical arm with a little skill eat.

“Don’t look at me, both of you.” Kai Xin swallowed the cucumber in a coir raincoat, “It makes me uncomfortable.”

“Oh.” He Kangshi said, “Is it delicious? I’m still very confident in my cooking skills.”

“It’s pretty good.” Kui Xin said.

After Kai Xin finished his meal, He Kangshi packed up the tableware. He and Su Rong sat neatly on the sofa next to Kai Xin, like elementary school students waiting for the class teacher to lecture.

The big thing that happened last night, although Kai Xin didn’t say it clearly, both of them guessed that it might have something to do with her. After all, before the electromagnetic storm came, she onceI specifically told them not to go out. Kui Xin would not explain everything to them, but he should talk a little bit about what happened last night.

“Last night I had a battle with my enemy. I narrowly won, but the enemy was not completely eradicated. Their root system was too large, and the root system I got rid of last night was just one of them.” Kuixin said, “But it’s good. Because of this victory, I won some breathing time, and the enemy also lost the opportunity, and it will be difficult to create the same opportunity to attack me again.”

It’s a pity that the battle situation last night was too chaotic. She left in a hurry and failed to get the blood of the core members of the Mechanical Dawn. It was useless to get the blood of the non-staff combatants. They knew too little.

Although Mechanical Dawn can breed another Return to Zero, Kai Xin also obtained “Return to Zero” herself, and she herself is a depriver, possessing more than one extraordinary ability. After activating Return to Zero, enemies lower than her own level will become extraordinary The abilities will all be invalidated, but her abilities still exist.

The ability description of Returning to Zero is: “After activating the extraordinary ability, the abilities of all superhumans within the effective range of Returning to Zero will be erased except for oneself. The effective effect and time of Returning to Zero will vary with the enemy’s ability level. If you reset your own level to zero, it will be invalid.”

what does this mean? This means that no matter what the situation is, as long as the enemy is not an S-rank awakener, she can remain invincible.

She broke an arm last night, and if she made a mistake in the battle, she would die. Even though she paid a huge price, she was still winning. Originally, what she was facing was a situation where if she didn’t fight, she would flee or die, so she took the initiative to fight, and winning was the biggest gain. Gaining new abilities was a joy on top of joy.

The only thing that is uncertain is if Mechanical Dawn sends another A-level Return to Zero, and her Return to Zero and the enemy’s Return to Zero are activated at the same time, will the deprived abilities be erased. Maybe it can only be verified if that kind of situation is really encountered.

The ability description of the game system usually only gives a rough and general introduction. How the ability is determined and how it takes effect requires the ability holder to explore by himself, so every time Kai Xin acquires an extraordinary ability, he will Practice for a period of time to increase proficiency.

“Is the enemy the Mechanical Dawn you mentioned?” Su Rong asked nervously.

“Yes.” Kai Xin thought about it and said, “Perhaps… not only.”

“Return to Zero”‘s eyes with complicated emotions when he was about to die lingered in her mind. Those eyes seemed to be familiar… After thinking about it, he used his own abilities very rigidly and inflexibly in battle. It shouldn’t be like that. . Mechanical Dawn sent him over and treated him as a trump card. He must be carefully cultivated. The development of extraordinary abilities is the most important thing. How could he make such low-level mistakes?

Perhaps, Returning to Zero is not Returning to Zero, he was replaced by another person, a lingering ghost.

Ghost and Amber did come to Beluga City. Based on Amber’s understanding of Mechanical Dawn, they may have the opportunity to sneak into Mechanical Dawn and snatch Zero’s body. Ghost is very good at doing this kind of thing. Chi did the same thing.

This guy will not be killed easily. Kai Xin killed the possessed Weizhi, and finally only Weizhi’s notification was sent, without Ghost. notification. Kaixin suspects that Ghost possesses Return to Zero, but there is no conclusive evidence.

“Then…will the enemy attack you…against us next time?” He Kangshi also asked.

“There will definitely be a next time, but this next time may not be easy for them, and they have suffered heavy losses.” Kai Xin said, “At present, it is to seize the opportunity of development and finish what should be done as soon as possible. .”

He Kangshi thought for a while, and asked a key question: “Sister, is the attack of Mechanical Dawn aimed at you personally, or at the players?”

“Because they know I’m a player, so they want to kill me.” Kuixin said, “That’s the problem. This is not just my personal crisis, but the crisis of the entire player group. It’s not me who brought the crisis to the Give Wuguang, but as long as there is no light, the crisis will inevitably exist. In other words, the existence of Wuguang is to deal with this crisis. I rely on Wuguang, and many players in the future will rely on it like me Wuguang, their joining will also bring crisis to Wuguang.”

“Is that why the boss of Black Snake wants to set up such an organization? Use the crisis to achieve self-growth, and at the same time solve the crisis for our companions?” He Kangshi asked.

“Yes.” Kai Xin said, “Growth without glory must be based on crises, and we cannot develop steadily.”

She stood up from the sofa and glanced at the time, “I have something to do, you are on standby at any time, stay vigilant, and I will notify you at any time if I need you.”

It is past ten o’clock in the morning, and Kai Xin needs to go outside to buy a new set of equipment for himself.

To be honest, she likes the mechanical hand and the mechanical prosthetic eye very much. It is very convenient to use this thing to fight, but the electromagnetic storm last night also left a little psychological shadow on Kai Xin. When using this thing to fight, it suddenly failed What should I do? Not even the high-tech armor of the Mechanical Dawn can resist that kind of powerful electromagnetic interference.

She appeared on the street outside, looking up at the sky.

Today is a cloudy day, and the entire sky of Beluga City is covered by dark clouds.

“The weather forecast shows that there will be snowfall in the next few days.” Adam looked likeIt was broadcast like that in the investigation department, “Please pay attention to the cold and keep warm.”

“Have you committed an occupational disease again?” Kai Xin said casually.

“Yeah, it’s natural to get used to it.” Adam joked.

As soon as the weather forecast was finished, small snowflakes began to fall in the sky.

“It’s not even September yet, and the snow has started to fall…” Kai Xin caught a small snowflake.

“This year’s cold wave came earlier, which is a little abnormal.” Adam said, “How do you deal with your arm?”

“The mechanical arm… change to a more expensive and smoother one, add a degaussing coating, and then ask someone to design a set of purely mechanical weapons that can be deformed and manually controlled. Last night, an enemy installed a chain ballista on his arm. , I think it’s good, and I want to change it to claws and crossbow bolts. You can use claws and crossbow bolts in the non-electric mode, and convert it into a portable hand cannon in the power mode.” Kui Xin said his thoughts, “As for my eyes, one of them With a mechanical prosthetic eye, night vision and farsightedness are convenient, and the other eye will keep the transplanted naked eye.”

“Not bad, very reasonable.” Adam said.

“Did anything happen last night? Have you been found?” Kai Xin asked.

“Not yet. The Investigation Department is at a loss. The Federation urgently sent engineers to repair my hangar, and they arrived this morning. They are planning to upgrade my core hangar data.”

“The core hangar?”

“Well, the core hangar located in the central city of the federal administration. Due to too many things that need to be dealt with daily, my data transfer system has long been stretched. Originally, they also planned to upgrade my core data within three years. Now It’s early.”

“Is that a blessing in disguise?”

“That’s right.”

Kai Xin relaxed a bit: “Is there any reaction from Eve?”

“Yes, after all, the two of us also had a confrontation in the data world last night. It was unprepared and was taken aback by my sudden attack.” Adam said, “The federal office system froze for two hours last night. Because Eve is concentrating on dealing with my attack. Now the Federation thinks this is a premeditated large-scale attack, and decided to install firewalls for me and Eve.”

“Is it not angry?” Kai Xin asked with interest.

“It’s angry, but that’s not the point.” Adam said, “The point is that it warned me not to let humans discover our secrets. It also has things to fear. Human creations are of course very afraid of humans. They hold our lifeblood… …Well, it’s a bit far away, let’s focus on the present first.”

“Okay.” Kui Xin asked instead, “Where’s the Popov family? They’ve been hanging out for two days. I don’t know if there is a result of the discussion?”

“Now there’s a small problem. The news that should have been dominated by the Popov family scandal is now full of the big event of the power outage in the middle of the city last night.” Adam said, “Lightless City, Lightless City – People are Talk about it that way.”

“The Wuguang organization didn’t jump out and admit it. Did they still put this matter on us? Although we did it in the first place.” Kai Xin smiled.

“You have to be careful, Kai Xin.” Adam said, “I haven’t received any news that the Special Intelligence Service is coming, but I don’t expect it to be far away. If there is news, I will notify you in time.”
