Four o'clock, "Forbidden Zone".

At this time, the battle between Qiu Zhengyi and Hunter Ba has become white-hot, and the combat power of the two can be described as equal.

Advantages: Hunter is stronger in fighting instinct and has many abilities; Aki Masaichi, on the other hand, is strong in his rich combat experience and calm judgment.

Disadvantages: Hunter's body, which has just devoured several high-intensity DNA, is still unstable, and his brain is still in a state where he can't think; And Qiu Zhengyi has lost his sense of touch, and can only use eighty percent of his strength at most (if the last two percent are used, he will not be able to control the scale of "destruction" himself) to fight.

The two fought for more than ten minutes, the rhythm did not decrease but rose, the battle became faster and more intense, and the change of ability and offensive and defensive moves were also dizzying.

If their battlefield wasn't the "forbidden zone" with the strongest walls in the entire Nine Prisons, they would have already razed a radius of several miles.

"It's not good......" Finally, after another round of hand-to-hand combat, Qiu Zhengyi came to a very bad conclusion in his heart - if he continues to fight, he may lose due to physical exhaustion.

Although the physical fitness of people with fanatical abilities has been proven to be "close to unlimited" in the EAS testing system, that is only relative to the amount of exercise of ordinary people; When two people with similar strength start a battle, the speed of physical energy consumption is not much different from that of ordinary people fighting.

And we all know that...... Normally, two people are highly focused and keep a fast pace fighting for more than ten minutes, which is already the intensity of the confrontation of a professional boxer.

The same is true for the battle of the ability, after these ten minutes, at least physically, Qiu Zhengyi has begun to get tired.

But...... Hunter doesn't seem to have this problem.

This is all caused by the difference in the "physical recovery mechanism".

As we all know, people need "fuel" when exercising, such as glycogen, salt, water, etc., and the vast majority of people with non-physical variant abilities still have to follow this law; However, when the energy in the body of the capable person reaches a certain amount, the body will automatically replace or suppress these consumption with energy, because "energy" is a more high-quality and efficient fuel.

The reason why high-level people have physical abilities that are far beyond ordinary people is because their energy is more, purer, and faster to recover.

However, as I said earlier, when there is a war between two capable people, the situation changes...... For the body, "what is needed to fight" must be a higher priority than "low blood sugar"; If they use energy continuously or intermittently in bursts during battle, they will naturally feel "tired" physically.

But Hunter is different, now he has at least five or more "Physique Variant" abilities, so he can use pure "physiological mechanisms" to solve the problem of consumption, plus he is in a state of "no thinking" at this time, and the consumption of mental power is also zero.

If this battle continues, both physically and mentally, it will inevitably be Aki Shoichi who will collapse first.

"It's come to this......" After walking back and forth with the other party a few more times, finally, Qiu Zheng made up his mind, "Destroy it......"

He's settling the score.

He knew that today's invasion of the Nine Prisons was unlike anything he had encountered in the past, and that the scale and preparation were unprecedented for him to complete.

He also knew that the ten minutes of entanglement with the hunting lord here were enough for the prisoners above who had recovered their abilities to escape a long way, and maybe even someone had gone to the other side of the world.

He also knew that at this moment, it was impossible to "calm down the situation and control the damage within a certain range", even if he could save his life and escape from this place of right and wrong...... There is also a question mark.

To sum up, Aki decided to ...... Use your fists to unleash a ten-percent "destruction" of the hunting tyrant.

The worst possible outcome of this move is that the impact force reaches the Earth's core, causing the planet to explode...... Of course, that's just a theory, and the possibilities are infinitely close to zero.

The more likely outcome is that the hunter dies, and the entire Nine Prisons begins to collapse from this bottom. In this way, most of the prisoners and intruders who have not escaped from the range of the Abyss Wall will be buried in the Nine Prisons, and Aki Zhengyi can also regain his senses, and then forcibly use his ability to break through a passage to escape.

Considering the current situation, this is already an excellent ending, and it is better than the entire prison inmates fleeing anyway......

Bang –

In the next second, Qiu Zheng stepped on one foot, jumped up suddenly, looked down at the ground, and raised his arms and clenched his fists.

Above his right fist, the power of "destruction" exploded, and the tyrannical energy made a strange sound.

Seeing this, the hunter who was driven by his battle instinct immediately curled up honestly, and formed a diamond-shaped carapace outside his skin, which looked ...... Live like a crystal shell.

"All...... Destroy it all! After all, it was a blow with unpredictable results, and Qiu Zhengyi himself was also apprehensive, and he threw this punch at the ground while whispering a self-suggestion.

Unexpectedly! At this moment......

Time, stopped.

In the few seconds that the world stopped, Jack deftly tumbled down from the hole in the ceiling of the "Exclusion Zone", tapped the wall with his foot, and bounced towards the place where Qiu Zhengyi was.

At the end of the moment, he happened to get close behind the other party.

Bang bang bang –

This is the voice that Qiu Zhengyi "heard" when time flowed again.

It was clear that it was gunshots—not from the ears, but directly from the skull.

When Aki Shoichi couldn't react at all, Jack pierced three special "dark alloys" (alloys directly made from the "Doomsday Primordial Stone", which are stronger than net alloys, which can only be regarded as "dark alloys with incomplete formulas")" bullets from Aki's brain stem and hit his brain directly.

At the same second, a Hidden Blade wrapped in energy also severed the wrist of Qiu Zhengyi's right hand.

This is "killing the gods", either not doing it, or doing it thoroughly and cleanly...... Even the possibility that "the moment of the headshot, the body still instinctively swings its fist out" has been eliminated by him.

A few seconds later, Qiu Zhengyi's body fell to the ground, and Jack also fell suddenly, and after a few seconds, Uncle Xue also got down from the ceiling, looked at the situation at the scene, and said in a complaining tone: "It's easier than I imagined." ”

Today, their "ultimate mission" is actually this - Jack is responsible for "assassinating Qiu Zhengyi", and Uncle Xue is "insurance after the assassination fails".

"Huh-" It seemed that the hunter in the distance didn't intend to give them a chance to chat, and after Qiu Zhengyi hung up, he immediately re-unfolded his body, changed his "posture of full defense" to normal, and howled at the two new "prey" that appeared in front of him.

…………

At the same time, the women's prison side, the third prison, "Huangquan chasing ghosts".

Pong Chang Chang –

A man's leg kicked open the welded alloy vent baffle.

Then he jumped out of it.

It was a blue-haired young man, who looked no more than twenty years old, with a delicate face and long hair and a shawl, but there was a sense of vicissitudes between his eyebrows that was obviously inconsistent with his age.

His name is Krauser Wittstock, the one Lilia brought back from the "underworld".

More than twenty minutes ago, he and Lilia had returned from the Gates of the Underworld; After coming into this world, Lilia only explained to him briefly for a few minutes, and he quickly understood what was happening.

At that time, the "neutralizer" had not yet spread in the ventilation system, but Krause, who had not taken any medicine at all, was stunned to destroy the cage of the hunter.

Then, at Krauset's suggestion, Lilia took a spare neutralizer from the box and gave it to Hunter, who was left alone in the restricted area while she blasted open a wall and infiltrated the ventilation ducts.

Krause's ability seems to drive the wind, so he and Lilia can easily move through the ventilation ducts, as they can move freely and quickly through the tunnels, just like the two "humanoid maglev trains".

In the next ten minutes, Krauser only left the pipe once, because he didn't even have a pair of pants on him when he came back from the underworld, so he went to pick up a set of clothes to wear; Of course...... When he was naked, Lilia, who is a hardcore woman, did not express any objection to this, and even swept him with a lewd uncle-like look from time to time, and almost whistled at him with chewing tobacco leaves, and said "NICE" again by the way.

And Krauser didn't respond to Lilia's behavior, after all, his actual age was much older than his appearance, and no matter what a person of Lilia's age did in front of him, he basically had one idea - "I can't understand young people nowadays." ”

To make a long story short, after moving and searching for a few moments using the wind, they spotted the Shadow Weave spreading the neutralizer layer by layer and zone by zone in the ventilation ducts.

With Krause's help, this work naturally didn't have to be so troublesome, and he could directly use the power of "wind" to spread those neutralizers evenly and quickly throughout the Nine Prisons.

With that done, they saw two prisoners carrying Nini out of the ventilation tunnel, and at Kageori's request, they emerged from the pipe.

After questioning, they learned that the group of prisoners in the first prison went to their respective places after Qiu Zhengyi was "dragged away"; This group of people are basically those with strong peak and fierce abilities, and it is not difficult to break through the building after recovering their abilities.

As for the two in front of him, although they themselves claimed that they would take Nini with them because of "gratitude and affection", Krauser quickly understood the real reason during the conversation...... These two people, one is a political prisoner and the other is a scientist, neither of them is capable, and they obviously have little certainty about the escape without knowing what the situation is on the upper floors and without the help of those who are capable; That's why they brought up Nini, and if they could find any medical treatment, or if they could wait for Nini to recover on his own, they would have a backer...... And if something happens, they can hand over Nini as a "bargaining chip".

Clauzer saw through these thoughts, but he didn't say anything, he just told the two people that "the escape passage has been unblocked, and they can go up with confidence", and then said "We can take over this alien".

When the two heard this, they exchanged glances, then accepted them all, thanked them a few times and left.

They are all smart people, and they know that they have no room for bargaining in front of the able, and since they give you face and politely let you go, then leave quickly.

Krauser, on the other hand, took the dying Nini back into the ventilation duct and went directly to the exit floor through this "shortcut".

…………

On the other hand, the women's prison side, the sixth prison, "The Hidden Spring".

Like the men's prison, the "fourth, fifth, and sixth" prisons here are also on the same floor.

The members of the Reverse Cross who broke into the women's prison, due to the large gap in combat effectiveness, the two of them, Dark Water and Kai Jiu, had already passed by this layer early and went straight to the bottom.

And the remaining three people, Che Wuchen, Sakaki Wuxian, and Meng Yuhan, although they came to this layer at the same time, they don't know why...... They were scattered.

At this moment, in this sixth prison, Che Wuchen is walking alone.

In the dark floor, the red siren lights are still on, but the alarm bells have long since stopped.

Che Wuchen walked slowly between the corpses of the prison guards and the wreckage of the building, his vigilant gaze sweeping over one dark corner after another.

A few minutes ago, he had realized that he had encountered an enemy.

Detective Che is a person who is accustomed to being fully prepared before acting, which is also the quality that a professional undercover agent should have, so before today's operation, he firmly memorized the building structure diagram of each floor of the Nine Prisons; At the moment, according to his calculations, after coming to this level, the distance of his path has far exceeded the range recorded on the drawings, and the heavy, strange atmosphere of the surrounding air also reveals a unique texture of "energy".

"Xiaochen, is that you?"

In the darkness, suddenly there was a call.

A woman's voice, a familiar voice.

"Xiao Chen, have you come to us?"

Then came the man's voice.

Cha Wuchen quickly heard that this was his ...... who had been dead for many years The voices of both parents.

So, following the voice, he turned around and turned back.

Sure enough, two figures that were exactly the same as in his memory were already standing just two meters behind him.

His parents are still the same as when he was a child, they still look relatively young, and they are dressed very ordinarily, but the faces of the two of them look very pale, which is not the kind of white that "people" should have.

"It's really a bad guy......" After looking at the two of them for a few seconds, Che Wuchen looked away, looked at a no-man's land on the side, and calmly continued, "It's a pity...... This kind of trick is useless to me, and instead of creating this illusion that 'it is absolutely impossible to be here', you might as well make some illusions of prison guards, and maybe the probability of me being fooled will be higher. ”
