CH.19 The Carnival of Runaway
Phoenix led Kozmo into a large hall, where groups of scientists in white coats were busy walking back and forth. Phoenix turned back to Kozmo and said, "No one has been able to successfully adapt to this thing yet, but as far as I know, your body structure seems to be different from others, as if any crystal can be adapted?" ”
"Well, my previous crystal has been shattered once, and it stands to reason that I should no longer be able to connect with the Infinity Center, but after another transformation, I have gained the power of another crystal. What's the reason for that?" Kozmo also asked suspiciously.
"Yes, it stands to reason that one crystal can only correspond to one crystal, which is still an unsolved mystery. But with our crystal aggregators, we can superimpose an infinite number of crystals on a person. Phoenix said.
"So how, exactly?" Kozmo asked eagerly.
"Uh...... The principle is that one crystal corresponds to a center, but if we have a new crystal, the original crystal will be hidden. For example, now that you have obtained the crystals of our center, your "dragon soul" will be hidden. You'll need to go to the center again to receive irradiation to resummon it, and your crystals with us will be hidden, you know?" Phoenix explained.
"Isn't that a disgusting person who takes off his pants and farts? Trouble is dead...... So that's why your father invented the crystal aggregator. Kozmo laughed.
"Heh, this can be used as a portable hub. You take it. Phoenix said angrily.
"Alas...... I pretty much get it, so what exactly is an infinite crystal? Who developed it? And why is it that only a small number of people have access to its power? Kozmo took the crystal aggregator and asked a flurry of questions.
"Who knows? The priority is to deal with the intruders. Go for it, go use the strongest crystals!" Phoenix laughed haughtily and casually pointed to a room.
"The strongest crystal...... Kozmo hesitated for a moment, then strode inside.
Phoenix sat on the couch outside, happily listening to the crackling electricity inside, his hands sliding back and forth in front of him.
While he was basking in his accomplishments, the alarm suddenly sounded, and the door of the laboratory suddenly exploded open, and debris flew everywhere, revealing a figure wrapped in purple lightning, his blood-red eyes swaying back and forth in the purple light.
Kozmo staggered out, a row of fallen white coats behind him.
"Hey! What's wrong?" Phoenix asked calmly.
"Ahh He slowly raised his arm and lightly touched the brand-new purple crystal in his hand.
"Quick, unconnect him from the Infinity Crystal Hub!" Phoenix stepped back uneasily.
"No, President! Closing it now could destroy the crystal directly, the experimental type is too fragile. The technician on the side said.
"It's not easy to make this thing, you can't let it break. It seems that he can't match this crystal, so let him go to hell. Escorts, come on! Remember, don't hurt the crystals!"
"Yes!" The members of the escort team each opened the Infinity Crystal and rushed towards Kozmo with great eagerness. However, Kozmo's body also underwent abnormal changes due to the touch on the crystal just now, and his body gradually expanded, and his epidermis slowly turned purple. In a few moments, a dragon about five meters tall with huge wings and tail behind it stood majestically in the nearly destroyed laboratory. He stretched his long spiked neck and growled wantonly.
"Is that the Phantom Dragon......" Phoenix shuddered involuntarily at the horror of this monster that was even more terrifying than the intruder.
The guards were also frightened, and they were so frightened that they slowly retreated. Kozmo's red pupils looked around at the small ants in front of him, and he raised the huge soles of his feet and stepped on them suddenly, and one of the guards couldn't dodge, and was trampled into minced meat alive.
Phoenix felt the ground tremble as the behemoth moved. He shouted loudly for the escort team to come forward and subdue the monster, and everyone had to fight hard.
But now the rampaging Kozmo has the urge to destroy him when he sees a living life. He writhed his massive body and destroyed it frantically, and the escort attacks seemed to be completely ineffective, and some of them had even cut through his flesh.
In a few moments, there was not a single escort left.
Frightened by the sheer power, Phoenix watched away from the giant creature. But Kozmo also seemed to notice his presence, because now there was only one person left in the entire venue.
"Ahh He looked back and saw that the steel walls that had been hit by the light had been completely burned through. Seeing this, he hurriedly ran into the safe passage to avoid the attack, only to find that there was a heart-rending shout behind him.
Phoenix hurriedly took the time to look back on the way and saw that the dragon was long gone, and only Kozmo clutched his chest in the rubble and screamed in pain.
"I ...... I've become a monster, you...... What did you do?" Kozmo struggled.
Phoenix was also silent, he didn't know that the secret weapon to destroy the intruder was a lifeform that was even more terrifying than the intruder.
"That's how I ...... What's the difference with those things! Kozmo shuddered and threw himself in front of Phoenix, frantically tugging at his collar.
Phoenix shook him off, and the two stared at each other. But Phoenix didn't care about Kozmo's thoughts, he just began to worry about the terrifying power of this crystal, and he said to himself, "What the hell is this thing......"
Kozmo punched Phoenix to the ground and said angrily, "You don't even know what this is?" ”
Phoenix wiped the blood from his mouth and smiled slightly evilly: "Heh, do you think Zona is safe now?" Don't run out of points, just do something for me. ”
"You ......" Kozmo is still worried about Zona's safety, he knows that he can indeed kill the person in front of him now, but at the same time, it may also ruin Zona's life, but now, he still can't accept what happened to him just now. He remembered that his whole brain was dizzy when he turned into a monster, and even his eardrums were buzzing with the vibrations of his brain.
He couldn't control his thoughts and actions at all, it was like dreaming.
Obviously asleep, but awake.
He desperately controlled himself not to move, but his body frantically stretched out his magic hand to those escorts and even the unarmed research institutes. He didn't think that Phoenix's lackey-like subordinates were worthy of sympathy, but these are also fresh lives after all!
"I can't use this crystal anymore, I'd rather have the intruder destroy than hurt my own kind......" Kozmo said tiredly.
"Say what? This is the only way to destroy the intruders! Phoenix was also excited.
"No...... I'm going to destroy the intruders, but I'm not going to use this power anymore...... I can ...... myself," Kozmo shrugged away.
Phoenix wanted to threaten him with Nazona, but after thinking about it, he quietly watched him leave the lab.
He took out his phone and dialed Leon.
"Hey, did you record the data over there?" Phoenix asked with a smile as he watched the crowds of doctors rush in.
"No problem. Now that he has the power to surpass Z1, we're speeding up the study of the samples that his beam has penetrated to see if he has the power to disintegrate the intruders. Leon reported.
"Okay. So why did he suddenly lose his power? Phoenix said.
"Now he is not enough to sustain this powerful force. This crystal will drain his life force to fight until he adapts. Leon explained.
"It's okay, it's a long time coming." Phoenix sighed.
"We died so many people today, to be honest, although it was a success, but was it really worth it?" Leon muttered to himself.
"In my eyes, even if half of the people on this continent change to cut down the intruders, I think it's worth it. But what about that half? You know it's half of it. Phoenix laughed.
"yes." Leon on the other end of the line smiled knowingly.
Cozmo did not dare to face this fact, and cowardly nested in the Internet café and played games.
He was distraught, and after a while he was spraying with the people in the game. The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became, until he lost the game, and he finally couldn't sit still.
He stood up violently and slammed his fist against the monitor, scaring the people around him. He ignored the security guards who came, just looked at them coldly, walked to the front desk and left down two thousand yuan.
"Not enough." The webmaster said.
Cozmo was completely enraged, and he kicked the table in front of the webmaster and walked away in full view.
He didn't care about the consequences at all, he knew that Phoenix needed him now, so he wouldn't dare to attack Zona. He didn't dare to guarantee that he would be conscious next time he used this crystal, but if he dared to touch a single hair of Zona, he wouldn't need any guarantees.
As he walked, he saw a familiar figure, but he passed him as if he hadn't seen it.
"What's wrong, you don't know me?" Rabindranath Tagore asked.
"How is it possible, I don't hesitate to talk to you. If you have something to say, don't delay my time. Kozmo didn't look back, but said in a low voice.
"Oh, it's nothing, our lab is a little deserted, I can't sit still, come and have fun." Rabindranath Tagore sneered.
Kozmo was furious when he heard this, and he grabbed Tagore by the collar and shouted, "It's not all because of you!"
"What's wrong with me? Let go, I'm not here to tell you this......" Tagore quickly broke free from Kozmo's grasp.
"What?" Kozmo asked suspiciously, as if he wasn't here to make himself happy.
"Don't get carried away and think about what you're going to do." Rabindranath Tagore laughed.
"What do you mean?" Kozmo was a little confused.
"It's literal." He gripped the crystal in his hand and smiled slowly, "When you control this, maybe you'll know what you're going to do." ”
"How do you know...... "Kozmo asked in surprise if he had been with Phoenix all along.
"You don't have to know, I'm talking about it, fool." Tagore shook Kozmo's hand aside and laughed. "Think about it, don't sell yourself."
"What! You tell me ......" Kozmo hurriedly asked, but Tagore got into his car and drove away from the scene slowly, and the hated Kozmo kicked him in the ass.
"Things are getting more and more interesting, what's next for Phoenix?" Tagore looked at Kozmo in the rearview mirror and smiled slightly.
When Kozmo saw that the man had run away, he didn't bother to look for him. He sat on a bench beside him, pondering Tagore's words.
What did he mean by that? Don't sell yourself what?" He pondered the meaning of Tagore's words. Now he was almost certain that Tagore was in league with Phoenix, and even if he wasn't, he must be an insider. But is he implying that he shouldn't do things for him?
He didn't know what he should do, and he was completely confused by Tagore's inexplicable interference. He knew that he only wanted Zona and really didn't have much interest in anything else. He doesn't care about money, he doesn't care about fame and fortune, he just wants to spend his life with his lover in an ordinary way.
But the world does not allow him to do this, and the ability that he is not proud of has become a chain that binds him, and he is bound more and more tightly and deeply by reality.
Maybe that's fate.
To be honest, he doesn't care about other people's lives or deaths now, but he really can't bear to let his life die because of him. He would rather turn a blind eye than experience it himself.
He sat there thinking wildly, and after a while it was getting dark, and the air around him was unusually cold under the night sky.
He decided to go back and get a good night's sleep, and was just about to get up, but he heard a scream, and Kozmo walked away blindly, but he heard a series of screams, and someone also ...... Trespasser.
"I've left that place, I'll leave these things to them." Kozmo thought to himself.
But as soon as he made up his mind, a little girl ran past him, only to be knocked down by a Z3 flashing from behind, the girl cried helplessly, and the intruder opened her own bloody mouth.
"Forget it. I can't help but save it in front of me. Kozmo whispered to himself helplessly.
"Dragon Soul." Kozmo quickly drew his spear, picked it up and jerked the intruder aside. Then he quickly approached and stabbed it in the heart, and in an instant there was a faint popping sound and bursts of blood spurting out.
The little girl thanked her again and again in horror, and Kozmo nodded politely.
The girl grabbed the corner of Kozmo's clothes and wailed, "My parents are still inside, and there are still many people being chased by the intruders, can you please save them?" ”
"Uh...... I still have something to ......" Kozmo gently removed her hand, as his brain told him not to get involved in these things, and that he had to live to keep Zona safe. Besides, he couldn't control the power of this Phantom Dragon Crystal now, and he couldn't hurt others through his own hands anymore.
"Why, aren't you the Enlightener?" The little girl said disappointedly.
"Not anymore." Kozmo whispered.
"Mom said that the Enlightener's magical Infinity Crystal will definitely take down the monsters. The Enlightened and Infinity Crystals were born to protect us! Please, can you help us? I can't live without my mom and dad. The little girl shouted excitedly, her eyes filled with tears.
"Yes, the Infinity Crystal exists to protect people. Forget it, let's do it with your hands. You stay here, and I promise to get everyone out. Kozmo was stunned for a moment, then smiled slightly, touched the little girl's head and reassured herself, and then threw herself into the flames
I've been stunned for too long, although Zona is the only pillar of my soul, I have ignored too much for her.
"The mission of the Enlightened is to protect people! This is the mission of Infinity Crystal! Take the infinite crystal to prepare to rebel against the government, and if you don't save me, I'm not even as good as a monster! I don't want to be a monster, I'm human! I'll keep my hands in check! Use it on the right path!" Kozmo was overhauled and shouted firmly.
He rushed into the crowd and saw the intruders in a frenzied hunt, the bones were already all over the place, he quickly killed a few Z3s and saved a few passers-by, only to find that there were also groups of Z2s walking towards him.
"It's a bit much, and it is estimated that Z2 has assimilated some people." Kozmo calmly analyzed.
As soon as the intruder saw that the human in front of them had snatched his prey, they gathered like a spring. Kozmo also fought back quickly, quickly eliminating the intruders at a speed of almost one shot, and in a moment these little brothers were wiped out by him.
But the large number of Z2 was difficult to deal with, and he shuttled back and forth among their massive bodies, looking for gaps to attack. But no matter how fast he reacted, he couldn't dodge attacks from all sides at the same time, and when he attacked, he was stabbed in the back by the monsters' thorns. He endured the pain and danced with his spear again, but he stabbed the intruders with precision, but he was also reciprocated by them, and after a while, he was covered in bruises.
"Change the tide of battle with your special move!" He gasped for air, trembling as he touched the Infinity Crystal.
As soon as he pressed the crystal, a green beam of light blasted him into place, and with what little consciousness he had left, he saw a figure of Z1.
"I can't die......," Kozmo muttered, knowing that he might not have any hope of living.
"Now that everyone here should be judged, then I have no worries...... Even if I can't control it...... No, it will be controlled! Even if it doesn't work, I'm going to do my best...... Destroy you!" Kozmo staggered out the crystal of the phone body aggregator, and he folded a handle out of the phone-like thing, and pressed the symbol of the Phantom Dragon Crystal on the phone screen as he held it. He quickly snapped the groove at the other end of the handle onto his crystal, and a purple light converged around him.
"Phantom Dragon."
A clear crystal prompt sounded, and in an instant, the beam of light and shadow turned into a wave of air, knocking the surrounding Z2s to the side. As the qi wave slowly dissipated, a pair of blood-red eyes became more and more obvious.
"Look, that's ...... What a rampaging!" Kozmo stood trembling and yelling.
As Kozmo pressed the crystal again, the monster fought against the monster......
It's just getting started.
