Chapter 33: Myself
In fact, that's what they're really here for.
As soon as these words came out, the room fell silent. The strange calm lasted for about two minutes, and then Number 7 smiled, "What? Are we engaged in a fierce psychological struggle? So I'll say—"
"Number 2." He pointed to the one next to Li Zhen, "I don't think you are suitable to be a carrier." For now, you're too weak. Weakness is not a good choice in this situation. ”
No. 11 smiled slightly: "No. 7, don't change the concept." What matters is not weakness or strength, but our attitude towards species and humans. In fact, according to what I just saw, you don't seem to have a clear position for yourself. ”
No. 7 turned his head and looked at the other identical self: "Positioning? Let's put it this way, the twelve gathered here today can be regarded as the same camp - the human camp. It's just that I think a little bit more. Two years ago I could have sacrificed myself for a lot of people, but two years later, as I begin to understand what I really am, it's a bit ridiculous to sacrifice myself for humanity. ”
"I may do my part for some people, but I want to go to the battlefield and fight to the death like last time...... Now I can't. ”
"Good. Then I and No. 7 quit the discussion. 2 sighed with relief, "I think the opposite of him. Since we represent the two extremes, the rest is up to you. ”
He said, taking a step back. The No. 7 stall also retreated.
Li Zhen let out a sigh of relief. He whispered, "It just so happens that I'm sitting in the middle of the room, so I'll tell you." ”
Others did not object.
"I suggest that I be the carrier." He said with a blank face, "Stance and things like that, like Number 7 said - we're all on the side of humanity. The question is how much to sacrifice. It's hard to grasp, but other things can be deciding. ”
He looked down and thought for a moment, "I've seen Kozon in the ruins of Zamboanga. We spent five nights together. ”
"Oh-" four men sighed helplessly, and said, "Well, I'll get out of the discussion." ”
No. 3, who didn't quit, said in a deep voice: "After the fusion, you will be me, and the memories will merge - I don't mind this." ”
"Hmm. I understand. Li Zhen shook his head slightly. Then there's the second thing. Also at the ruins of Zamboanga, I met a civet cat. The cat ate something. Some small fragments of our bodies—the kind of fragments that are not large enough to divide. I got them from it. ”
Number 3 looked at him carefully and sighed, "You are indeed ...... Very smart. So let me ask you a question. What do you think of when you spend the night with Kokosone? ”
Li Zhenzhi said what he was referring to. So he smiled: "One comes." I miss her a little. Secondly. I have a physiological need. Three comes. In this way, I want to realize whether I want to survive as a human being. Fourth, it is to prepare for today. ”
Number 7 applauded softly: "I like this idea of yours. ”
So No. 3 and No. 8 looked at each other and took two steps back together. Only Li Zhen and No. 5 and No. 6 remained.
The two of them spread their hands: "We don't care. Then vote. ”
"I'll pick number 1." No. 7 and No. 9 speak in unison.
Number 2 thought for a moment. He also said: "The same choice." ”
The four people who quit after that smiled: "For the sake of Kesong, I will also choose No. 1." ”
Li Zhen stood up: "The matter is clear. ”
"Let's get started, then."
No. 7 walked out of the crowd and stood in front of Li Zhen: "Start with me." Hopefully, my consciousness will make you make a better choice. ”
Li Zhen smiled: "But this is the ...... There's only one person left, and I still think it's a bit of a pity. ”
Number 7 looked at him with a serious face: "No. There won't be just one person left. You'll soon learn the truth. ”
As he spoke, he pressed his hands to his cheeks and turned them firmly. After the crisp "click" sound, his body fell limply. Li Zhen held him up.
He realizes that the phrase "there won't be one person left" when Number 7 says something else, but the other person doesn't seem to want anyone else to hear it. So he quietly tore open Seven's palm with his fingertips, and also tore a wound in his own palm, and pasted it.
Flesh and blood fusion. Number 7's body began to shrivel and winc. His cheeks were rapidly losing their lustre, and his hair and nails slowly retracted into flesh. It was as if he had been injected with digestive juices by a giant spider, and his bones became soft in a series of crunching sounds, and eventually his entire body became a soft "sack".
Li Zhen closed his eyes tightly and fused a large amount of memory and consciousness, while several other people surrounded the two of them in the middle, using their bodies to block possible dangers for them. Number 2 glanced at Number 7's corpse and frowned, "Fortunately, I can't see myself for a while. ”
Number 8 laughed, "It doesn't matter if you can't see it - you can always remember the scene after the fusion - or eleven times, keep it forever." ”
Number 2 pouted: "I'll do the second one." At least not a few more times. ”
In fact, the process of fusion proceeds very quickly. Five minutes later, Li Zhen let out a sigh of relief and straightened up. There was only one piece of clothing left on the ground.
Number 2 walked up to him and whispered, "I'm the second." ”
But Li Zhen frowned slightly, thought for a while, and then said in a deep voice: "Everyone, there may be other tomb robbers here, you have to be vigilant." ”
Number 2 looked at him suspiciously: "What's wrong?" ”
"I can't say it now." Li Zhen said bluntly, "After everything is completed, we will naturally know." ”
Number 2 nodded, also wringing his own neck.
This time, Li Zhen supported his body with one hand, also tearing his palm. The speed of fusion was much faster, and No. 2's clothes fell to the ground within four minutes.
This was followed by the 3rd, the 4th, and the 10th.
He could feel it—the force was back in his body. The surging blood and desire prompted him to reach out to No. 11.
Number 11 also handed his hand over.
It was at this time—when the hands of the two men touched each other......
A puddle of blood!
Li Zhen did not hesitate at all. Roll over and roll to the ground and hide under the edge of the kang. Only then did he hear a dull sound - "Bang! ”
Then I felt the pain of tearing my right arm—the part below the elbow was gone, revealing the stubble of Bai Sensen, and blood splattered outward like a fountain. He snorted and pinched his upper arm with his left hand to slow down the flow of blood, and the powerful self-healing ability that had been restored began to work. The muscles at the fracture gradually tightened, the broken blood vessels closed on their own, and precious blood was blocked in the body.
He looked to the ground again.
Number 12's head is gone, and half of Number 11's body is gone. It seems that the bullet first shot No. 12 in the head, and then swept through half of No. 11's body.
He frowned, and the cover of the shadows hooked 12's body with his feet. Then five fingers to one. Rip off his right forearm. Of course, he could have taken some time to develop an arm on his own, but the current situation did not allow him to waste time.
He knew that the person in the consciousness of No. 7 had appeared.
Li Zhen tore the elbow that had just healed back and pressed the arm up. After a few breaths, he shook his right arm. Intact as new.
Then he tore the palm of his right hand open. Attach the wound on the neck of No. 12. Absorbed the 11th again.
It has achieved its previous purpose. But that's not all.
After absorbing Number 7, he figured out what the other party was trying to tell him.
No. 7 Yu Lu saw another person - another Li Zhen. Number 7 thinks that the guy is mixed in with the twelve, but he thinks wrong.
The other party is in the distance right now. It was the one who sniped them.
In other words, he killed two of himself himself.
No. 7 met him in the south. According to his memory. That one Li Zhen behaved quite violently. His purpose seems to have only one - to use himself as a vehicle and to integrate others. But not by unanimous vote, as just now, but by violent means. Kill one person, then absorb them.
The two had fought before, but at that time each was an individual, comparable to each other. Therefore, they finally parted ways "sensibly", and did not decide to live or die.
No. 7 was puzzled, and now Li Zhen is also suffering from this situation. It stands to reason - it's all "yourself". Although each person is an individual, the initial thoughts and emotions should be the same. If he asks himself if he can't do the thing of "hunting himself", then other "Li Zhen" shouldn't be able to do this either.
What went wrong?
Judging from the gunshot just now, the opponent's strength is very strong - not even much weaker than his current self. This means that he succeeded. He must have fused the strength of some of the others to regain his ability: long-range sniping.
A year ago, he used this ability to scare Sun Jingtang's guts, and now it is his turn to taste the bitter fruit.
So...... The one who released the news and hired these cannon fodder to find the "bones of the Yellow Emperor" must also be him.
Li Zhen hid in the room and waited quietly.
He can ignore other people's psionic powers. This "power" that transcends "psionic energy" is equally effective for "self". The other side realized this and chose to use long-range weapons. In fact, the best chance of getting rid of it should be before these twelve people merge. At that time, their bodies were fragile, and a single bullet could incapacitate them.
That is to say, the one in the distance is long overdue.
Li Zhen tore the bloodstained clothes from the ground after more than ten seconds and threw them into the air.
The clothes were immediately torn to pieces by the bullets, and the gunshots were heard again.
So he threw out another piece of clothing five seconds later. Also crushed.
From the first shot to the present, the other side has fired three shots. And there is a slight difference in the sound of gunshots - the sound is getting louder and louder. This means that the opponent is approaching, or changing direction, trying to find a suitable angle to kill with one hit.
No one knows their weaknesses better than they do. Now he did have his terrifying self-healing abilities again, but if he was shot in the head, it wasn't something that could be solved in a matter of seconds.
He gritted his teeth and tossed a cloud of clothes for the third time. The sound of gunfire rang out as promised. Only this time the angle at which the garment was thrown was calculated, and the warhead continued to trend after tearing the garment, and shattered the kerosene lamp on the table.
A flash of fire spread and fell to the ground. Li Zhen went up to the clothes of other people on the ground, rubbed his legs a few more times, and the fire was extinguished.
There is no light source in the room. From the outside, it must be pitch black. So he gathered away the large mass of clothes he had at hand and slammed them up—the clothes bloomed in the room.
The gunshots rang out one after another, and Li Zhenxin rolled on the spot and jumped to the table, reaching out and grabbing an assault rifle.
As soon as you get your hands on a gun, you feel a wonderful feeling all over your body. It was as if the metal and plastic object had become his extended fifth limb, and he could even have a premonition of what path the bullet would take when it was discharged, and what attitude it would take to hit the target.
The other party has psychic powers, and he has the same energy.
Long-range sniping vs. long-range sniping - the only drawback is that the one he has in his hand is an assault rifle.
But ability can compensate for this disadvantage - the distance between the other party and oneself seems to be within two kilometers. The ability to increase range was enough for him to ignore this.
In fact, these reflections are only between lightning and flint. It took only a second from the time he got the gun to the time he turned around, held the gun, and pulled the trigger.
A point shot.
Three bullets whistled out, and the gunfire in the distance suddenly stopped. The window has been smashed by bullets. Li Zhen grabbed two magazines from the table and jumped out.
In mid-air, he pulled the trigger again—and a bright fire appeared in the air. Then he landed, rolled, moved at high speed, and fired quickly. The blazing warhead tore through the air under the action of psionic energy, and collided with the bullets fired by the opponent in one after another, turning into clusters of metallic flames.
When he was in Shennongjia, he had seen Hu Yanling perform such a unique skill, and today he did the same. For nearly a year, he had no psionic powers, and his body was as fragile as an ordinary person. Now that the former power had returned to his body, he felt like a tiger descending from the mountain, and every muscle was filled with the desire to fight.
After three rounds of firing, the two sides unanimously ceased fire. Because each side realizes that this method of warfare cannot cause effective damage to the other. Right now, Li Zhen was hiding in the wilderness, surrounded by dense bushes, tiny cobwebs, round aphids on blades of grass, and dragonflies hiding under the stems and leaves at night.
He tried several ways, but none of them seemed to allow him to win. The opponent's abilities are the same as your own—lightning, fire, teleportation, flight, self-healing, scales, and power.
This is a high-burst, high-movement, high-defense, high-attack enemy.
For the first time, he experienced the powerlessness of those people in the past. (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
