Chapter 45. Subjective time-to-slow
Stewart caught up from behind with a disgraced face and exclaimed, "The doctor is going to play in person?!" ”
Zhou Jinru thought for a while: "Can we free up more manpower?" ”
"No, the communication equipment is still being repaired, and it is estimated that the concentration of nearby source stone particles is too high, which causes the electronic equipment to malfunction."
"There's no way around it, hurry up and fix it, we need more support."
As soon as he finished speaking, the centurion of Sakaz in front of him raised his big knife and slashed at a slightly larger source stone worm, making a loud noise, and the ground under the centurion cracked a big hole, but before he could retract the knife, more source stone worms came out of the ground, turning the building that had just been blown down into an ornament.
A private car parked on the side of the road was overturned by a source stone crystal growing from the ground, and at the same time, the nearby buildings began to slowly sink, just as Zhou Jinru had seen in the Northern Industrial Zone.
"Retreat!"
W appeared at the edge of the street, holding a grenade launcher in his hand, without even aiming, and raised his hand to shoot a grenade into the source stone insect swarm, which immediately exploded a source stone worm.
The Sakaz mercenaries who were sticking to the streets retreated one after another, numbering more than fifty people, in addition to a few standard-bearers and melee fighters that Zhou Jinru had seen, there were also more than a dozen magicians who did not show up.
Just as W was about to fire the second grenade, he noticed that the source stone worms crawling out of the ground crack had slowed down significantly, and their crawling speed had become very clumsy, not only that, but the source stone crystals that had grown to more than a meter high on the side of the road suddenly began to disintegrate, shattering into a cloud of debris at a speed visible to the naked eye.
She couldn't help but glance at the man standing in the middle of the road, the Sakaz mercenaries withdrawing from his side, still standing still, only a sorcerer by his side.
W's intuition told her that the changes that happened to the source stone worms should have something to do with him.
Zhou Jinru tried to open the lighthouse in the sun for the first time, and the effect was naturally not used, not much worse than Serea's calcification force field, and it is not known if there is a damage increase effect, but the slowing effect is good, and it also has a suppression effect on the source stone crystal.
As for why he stood still, it was not that he wanted to be a tough guy, but that he had a chance of encountering the side effects of turning on the lighthouse, and he couldn't move for the time being.
Steward, who was next to him, quickly noticed something strange and hurriedly asked, "Doctor, how do you feel?" ”
"I... It seems that I can't move. ”
Stewart was taken aback and stretched out his hand to pick up Zhou Jinru, when the Sakaz mercenaries who had already left turned back, and one of them walked back with the Rhode Island doctor, and their movements startled Dubin who came out of the campus.
"What are you going to do?!"
"Don't be nervous, there's zero problem with his body."
W finally fired two grenades, exploding in the street behind them, sending up a puff of smoke, and she quickly turned and ran, past the Doberman and Rhode Island operatives, as well as the Sakaz mercenaries, and into the integrated movement's car.
Zhou Jinru was crossed by two Sakaz mercenaries and walked a few steps, his body regained some sense, he could feel that he was regaining control of his body, and struggled: "Stawart, detonate, detonate all!" ”
On both sides of the street where the few of them walked quickly, explosions were heard from several buildings, which collapsed with a bang, splashed bricks and stones, and then fell to the ground, no source stone worms came out, and no source stone crystals grew, falling into a deathly silence.
When Zhou Jinru passed by Dubin, he shouted: "Has the communication been restored?!" ”
"I'm trying to get in touch with Sister Shihuaiya!"
He felt the strength of his palms regain his strength, and with a wave of his arms, he broke free from the hands of the two Sakaz, supported his heavy body, and said quickly: "There is no time, are you sure that there are no more students in the school?" ”
Dubin, who has always been capable, rarely did not answer immediately: "...... Absinthe hasn't come back yet. ”
"Find it!"
Zhou Jinru held the long knife, and behind him stood the Sakaz man who had not left for a long time, and he said in a low voice: "You guys go, obey W's order." ”
Ansel hurried over with a medical kit and asked, "How is the doctor feeling now?" ”
"I'm fine, don't worry."
He struggled to get up, a slender test tube between his fingers, and the viscous black liquid could not let in the sunlight.
In the distant date of St. Martin's, Zhou Jinru, who was about to walk out of a researcher's private house, got two of these test tubes, which he had been carrying, and the other party could use them as stimulants, but the color was too weird, so he refused to use them, so he gave the other one to Kelsey for testing, and Kelsey did not know the specific results, but said that he could drink it when he needed it.
Zhou Jinru didn't have the slightest suspicion of Kelsey's words, he glanced at the silent campus, unscrewed the stopper of the test tube, and poured the sticky black water into his mouth.
The taste was a little strange, it didn't remain in his mouth when he swallowed, and he didn't feel anything in the five seconds he slid down his throat, just when he wondered if the potion had any effect, the transparent panel in front of him suddenly lit up, and it continued to brighten, he felt that his spirit was flying away from his body, and his vision gradually rose, from a first-person perspective to a third-person perspective, and it was still rising!
Taller and higher, higher and higher, overlooking this street of St. Aral, soon it became a whole land city again, and he saw that a quarter of the northern city had collapsed, and a large number of black source stones were overflowing the ground, but the pull did not stop, it continued to rise, from a city to a wilderness to a country, so that he couldn't react at all!
“…… Routine testing is underway with 7% progress. ”
“…… A large amount of energy spill has been detected on the surface, and a security protocol review is underway, which is expected to be completed in 40 minutes, and the intervention will begin in 56 minutes, and the intervention will cause a 21% local overload at a duration of 4.5, which is within a safe range. ”
“…… Dear Defender, it has been detected that you are within the range of an energy overflow, and a protocol review is underway given that you have entered the third stage of personal enhancement...... After the review has passed, the relevant agreement has come into effect, and the ability to unlock is subjectively slow, and Taiyue Base is looking forward to your next visit. ”
Poof! Poof! Poof!
The powerful heart was beating in the chest, and Zhou Jinru's gaze descended at an extremely fast speed, crashing into his body, his feet were crooked, and he almost fell, but fortunately, Ansel next to him helped him in time.
"Doctor?"
"I ......"
Zhou Jinru shook his head, stared at the empty test tube in his hand, and subconsciously asked, "How long has it been since I drank this thing?" ”
