……

[Option 3]

[Ability: Grabble]

Specific performance: Master the [Grab] ability and master it. Regardless of their physique and strength, they will not be able to resist.

……

Zheng Zhuo chose [Ability: Grabs].

This was the first time he had chosen a skill with a substantial attack effect. Previously, his panel was full of mental attributes and social skills.

……

[Participant: Zheng Zhuo]

【Location: Explorer】

[Cleared Worlds: Small Town World, Ocean World, Dungeon World, Magic Academy World, Evolution World, Plant Disaster World, Martial Arts World]

[Subconscious World Abilities: Identification, Rapid Spellcasting, Transformation, Alchemy]

[Real-World Abilities: Psychic Resistance: Ineffective Madness, Class Mastery Speed *10, Black Hand, Counter Devour, Persuasion, Grabs]

……

His panel changed.

"Joined the grappling ...... It doesn't seem to have changed in nature. ”

Zheng Zhuo thought.

It seems that he has just changed from "behind the scenes" to "a little capable of playing behind the scenes".

Zheng Zhuo flew upward, and the clouds gradually pushed away. He saw the [Pure White World] appear in front of him.

It just so happened that [Clown] Fu Xi should also have returned to her egg sheath. He had a lot of questions he wanted to ask her.

When she was in [Martial Arts World], she repeatedly mentioned that she "has her own things to be busy".

What exactly are you busy with?

Zheng Zhuo tried to think for himself, but couldn't find the answer.

He wanted to save people from re-entering the [subconscious world]. But entering the subconscious world is not the only thing that can be done.

"I'll have to ask her about it."

Zheng Zhuo thought in his heart.

In addition to this, there are some doubts.

As long as she stays in the egg sheath, can her abilities be used all the time?

Does her ability apply to all hostile units that are unconscious?

If someone else also enters the egg sheath, will they be able to gain further abilities like her?

One after another, questions appeared in Zheng Zhuo's mind. He flew towards the Pure White World. And then......

Passed through there.

……

"What!?"

Zheng Zhuo was surprised to find that he hadn't slowed down. He walked through the clouds near the Pure White World. The dark egg sheath flashed in his peripheral vision.

"Damage level: large. Degree of personality impairment: Medium. ”

An icy mechanical voice repeated the words it had seen on the panel before.

This.

Zheng Zhuo suddenly realized, this is going to ......

"Now begin to apply emergency disengagement."

Urgent disengagement.

This is the second time he has been inflicted [Emergency Detachment] after the Ocean World.

Zheng Zhuo watched as the [Pure White World] went away below. Before his consciousness faded away, he had only one thought.

Gu is really not a good thing.

……

A moment of whiteness, followed by a long period of darkness. Gradually, a warm light appeared in front of my eyes.

There was a soft "buzz". Suddenly, the ears could hear.

The cacophony of voices drowned out Zheng Zhuo like a flood.

The sound of talking, moving, the sound of cloth rubbing, the sound of washing......

How can there be so many people nearby?

Zheng Zhuo frowned and opened his eyes.

The eye adapts to the light source. He saw the paved ceiling.

Yes.

It's full of people. Some young people walked around, and many more played with their phones on their bunks. The air smelled of smoke.

Zheng Zhuo remembered.

"Hostel ......"

Before Zheng Zhuo entered the [Martial Arts World], in order to avoid the pursuers from affecting Tao Tao, he urgently left the staff dormitory.

After that, he went into the city and found a cheap youth hostel to live in.

Only the Chase shop remains. He didn't mind, though. He found a bunk against the wall and immediately dived into the [Subconscious World].

And now......

The location where he left was in this youth hostel.

“…… Enemy. ”

Zheng Zhuo quickly looked around.

Previously, he had learned that the mysterious professor and his team in black suits would mark those who could enter the [subconscious world] based on the location of the login.

Well, it's likely that you're eyeing him now.

"Didn't it arrive that soon?"

He straightened up.

The first thing to do is to make a phone call.

He dialed Chu Huairen and prompted, "The number you dialed has been turned off."

I called Zhuang Yusheng again, but no one answered.

Still won't work. Before he entered the [Martial Arts World], the two of them were already in a state of disconnection.

Although it was not a long time, considering that no one in the [Golden Space] called him anymore, the possibility of the two encountering danger was very high.

Zheng Zhuo hesitated. He didn't call Tao Tao.

He wasn't sure if the other party had found Tao Tao. He was afraid that the call would reveal her location.

(Calm down.) )”

Zheng Zhuo said to himself in his heart.

(Neither Chu Huairen nor Zhuang Yusheng could enter the [Subconscious World] on their own.) If I don't call them, they will only be able to see the [Golden Space] when I enter and exit the [Subconscious World], and they will not be able to interact with each other. )”

He pulled out his phone.

As soon as I left the [Collective Subconscious], the [World] function of the software could not be entered, and [Debugging] was displayed.

(The next time you enter the White World, ask the young women if they can determine their coordinates.) )”

Zheng Zhuo previously knew the approximate residence of Zhuang Yusheng. But if he is already in danger, he may move.

Chu Huairen is even more difficult to find.

"Next...... What can I do......"

Zheng Zhuo was agitated by this complicated situation. He got up and wandered through the passage, and soon realized that he was blocking the passage of others, and opened the door to the courtyard outside the hostel.

The courtyard leads to the entrance of the hostel. In the yard, there are also a lot of people. Many people came in and out, packing their bags.

Luggage...... Yes.

Zheng Zhuo didn't even have luggage. He traveled from city to city and stayed for a long time, but all he had was his phone and wallet, as if he had gone downstairs to buy something at a convenience store.

"Considering that you may often run away in the future, is it possible to buy some necessities......

Just when Zheng Zhuo looked at those young people and thought about it in his heart.

All of a sudden.

He felt something cold, hard behind him against his waist.

"Silence, follow me."

A man hooked his shoulder. A deep voice said behind Zheng Zhuo.

“……”

Zheng Zhuo did not speak. He silently followed the instructions, walked out of the small courtyard, and walked to the side of the path.

There, a van was parked.

The two slowly came to the car. The man who hooked Zheng Zhuo pulled the car door.

"Get in."

The man pushed Zheng Zhuo into the car. He took out the hemp rope and began to tie Zheng Zhuo's hands and feet.

Zheng Zhuo also saw the man's appearance clearly at this time. He didn't wear a black suit, he was dressed in civilian clothes, and his eyes were fierce, like a ruffian hooligan.

At the same time, he saw that the car was empty. No one else.

This man came alone?

Come and get me?

Catching someone with [Realistic Skills] like this would be too much to look down on my status as a [participant].

Zheng Zhuo didn't have any ability to resist before he was in a world. But that doesn't stop him from swelling now.

……

The man began to tie a knot in Zheng Zhuo's wrist. But apparently, it was not very successful.

Because all of a sudden, the world is spinning.

Zheng Zhuo hooked the man's wrist in turn. He pulls it with him, and fixes it in one go.

"Bang".

When the man came back to his senses, he was [captured] by Zheng Zhuo on the floor of the van.

Zheng Zhuo hooked the car door with his foot.

The environment inside the car became gloomy, and Zheng Zhuo's expressionless face looked terrifying.

"I know you're sent by those teams in black suits."

He said in a deep voice.

"Why did you come to arrest me? Where are you going to catch me? ”

The [Persuasion] skill is activated. The man began to feel a nameless fear.

The fear made him speak.

"I ...... I do not know! I...... All I know is ...... I'm going to ...... you Take it to City X...... XX University ......! ”

Zheng Zhuo had heard the name of that city. Quite far. If you drive this van on the highway, it will take three or four days.

As for XX University, it is not a well-known university. Zheng Zhuo hadn't heard of it.

However, compared to these......

"You don't know why you came to catch me? Then why do you know I'm here? ”

"I don't know! I ...... everything."

No matter how Zheng Zhuo pressed him, and even broke one of the man's little fingers, he didn't say a word.

Strong loyalty? Brainwash? Trained in torture?

Zheng Zhuo has nothing to do now.

He had planned to tie up the man. However, after using the [Persuasion] skill, the man's hostility seems to disappear.

(not very determined enemy personnel...... Is it? )”

To be honest, Zheng Zhuo is also afraid of inspections. So, he just threw the man in the back seat.

So, next......

What to do?

"I also have a driver's license." Zheng Zhuo looked at the van and scratched his head.

"Why don't you move it?"
