"Space-Time Matrix, Activate!"

In the open space in front of the hotel building, Lin Curtain drank softly, and the antique wooden door slowly emerged in the air.

In an instant, there are speeding cars on the road, pedestrians talking and laughing, or flies still fluttering in the air at this time...... Suddenly it came to a standstill.

The original noisy city wants to become a tomb that no one disturbs for a long time, and the sun in the sky is still so dazzling and dazzling, but the warm temperature is not felt at all.

Lin Mu raised his head and looked south, not knowing if it was an illusion, he vaguely felt that there was a special force in that direction.

"Forget it, wait until the next time you come back, and then go find the so-called space-time matrix."

Shaking his head, he turned and slung the stagnant old Carl on his shoulder, and pushed open the door carved with the World Tree.

In just an instant, his and Carl Sr.'s bodies were sucked into a spinning black hole, and in an instant, the gate slowly dissipated into the air, and the originally stagnant world began to move again.

**

In City 17, in a basement in the third block, Lin Mu and the bodies of Carl Sr. appeared out of thin air.

"Whew...... It seems that there are no parts missing from the body. ”

As soon as he came to his senses, the first thing old Carl did was to check his body. In this regard, Lin Mu did not feel that there was anything wrong.

After all, the so-called space-time teleportation matrix sounds like some kind of technological product, as long as it is a machine, there will always be times when things go wrong.

But for him, there is no time to worry about such things. Glancing over old Carl's cramped apartment, he waved his hand at the musty double where the only room was spacious.

Suddenly, two cigarettes, a case of liquor appeared out of thin air, and there were also some canned meat and instant noodles and other things.

"After you get rid of the cigarettes and alcohol, you can change your accommodation, it's safer, and I'll come back to you in two weeks."

Walking to the door, he looked back and said: "Pay attention to safety when handling things, it doesn't matter if you are robbed, just don't lose your life!" ”

"Don't worry, although I'm old, I'm not going to be robbed by some idiots!" Sitting on the couch, old Carl waved his hand, with a nonchalant expression on his face.

Seeing this, Lin Mu also relieved himself, pushed the door and left the room.

With the exception of the Core, the security in the other districts is still not great, but at least it is much better than the world outside the walls, as there are strict laws and the presence of knights who maintain it.

But when he went up the stairs in the basement and saw everything on the street, he didn't think so.

"Is there a war here?" Taking a light breath, he couldn't help but be surprised.

The streets were in shambles, with traces of explosions and charred bodies scattered on both sides of the street.

After hesitating for a moment, he took out the walkie-talkie from the storage space and said to the old Carl on the other end: "The situation outside is a little wrong, you stay in the house first and don't come out, and then I will contact you!" ”

"Zizi Zi ......"

"Roger!"

Soon, the old Carl's response came over the intercom. With a thought, the small walkie-talkie in his hand disappeared, and he walked towards the second block.

Passing through a corner, he was greeted by a row of red knights wearing power armor waiting for him, as well as four high-level power armor controlled by the Golden Knight, the Golden Eagle.

"Hands up! Don't move! ”

As soon as he found Lin Mu, four Red Devils immediately surrounded him. Facing the four jagged swords on the blades that resembled mantis knives and trembled rapidly, he didn't hesitate at all, and immediately raised his hands and said, "I'm a knight trainee in the fifth district!" ”

"Knight trainee?"

A surprised woman's voice came from a red devil, but before Lin Mu could speak again, he heard her say in a loud voice: "After scanning, this person is not carrying explosives, please instruct!" ”

"Bring him here!"

"Yes!"

With a hoarse male voice, the two Red Devils immediately grabbed Lin Mu's hands one left and one right, and moved him to the back of the cordon.

Next to a small Leech-class flying machine, under the escort of two golden knights with guns, an old man with a short stature and a gloomy face stood with his hands in his hands, he glanced at the forest curtain, and said coldly: "Tell me your name, your number, and what are you doing here?" ”

He wears a knight's uniform, but his neckline, cuffs, shoulders, and waist are dark red compared to the normal black uniform. He wears a gold-backed epaulette on his shoulders, on which are two crossed black swords. On his chest, he wears a silver shield medal with the Arabic numeral '17' engraved in the center.

The uniform represents the opponent's status as a high-ranking knight at least level 6 or above, the epaulettes represent direct membership of the Supreme Council, and the silver shield at the end represents the identity of the opponent as the governor of City 17 and the surrounding area.

Distinguishing the identity of the other party, Lin Mu's heart sank, and he hurriedly said: "I have met the Governor, I am Lin Mu, a trainee of the Fifth District Knight Training Camp, and my citizen number is 3759216, I am here to visit friends." ”

The old man tilted his head slightly and looked at the golden knight who took out the computer terminal. After a while, the bearded golden knight saluted and said:

"Report to my lord, he didn't lie about his identity, according to the records, he came here two days ago by bus from City Sixteen, and besides, he has a friend named Carl Derek who lives in the third block."

Hearing this, the old man nodded, turned his head to look at Lin Mu, and frowned: "Two hours ago, the order to evacuate was issued in the third block, didn't you hear it?" And, what about your friends? ”

"I'm sorry, Lord Governor, my friend and I had some drinks and didn't hear the evacuation notice, he's still sleeping in the house."

With a look of embarrassment on his face, he asked respectfully, "Your Excellency, may I ask what is going on here?" ”

"What's the matter?"

Asking rhetorically, the old man scolded angrily: "Those miscellaneous pieces of the body devouring snake have launched a terrorist attack in my city!" And killed ......"

Suddenly stopped, the old man shook his head and sighed, and waved his hand at Lin Mu. Then, he turned his head to look at the cordon formed by the Red Devils, took a deep breath, and said in a loud voice: "The Knights stationed in City 17 listen to the order!" ”

"Lift the lockdown on the Third Block! Intensify patrols in crowded areas! If anyone suspicious is found! ”

"No mercy!"

With that, he turned around and boarded the Leech-class flying machine, and the two golden knights immediately lifted the stretcher that had been placed aside and followed.

Looking at the humanoid silhouette covered with a blood-stained white cloth on the stretcher, coupled with the angry appearance of the governor of City 17, Lin Mu vaguely understood what was going on here.

There was no doubt that in the two days that he and Carl Sr. had been away, the group known as the Snake had assassinated another big man, and, judging by the appearance of the third block just now, it was probably another bomb attack.

"Snake Eater......"

After silently reciting the name, thinking of Sophia who had lost her heartbeat, and thinking of the child in her belly, Lin Mu couldn't help but clench his fists.

I'll get justice for you!

Taking a deep breath, he suppressed the murderous intent boiling in his heart and walked towards the bus stop in the first block.

Although it was only a mistake, although Sophia and the child in her womb could be resurrected in a little while. But these are not enough reasons for him to give up revenge.
