Chapter 40: The Vampire Mask (Part I)

"Kill the Ascendant? Are you sure? Zheng Zha grabbed Chu Xuan's shoulder violently.

This task of the main god has always been like a sword of Damox hanging over the head of the Middle-earth team, and once the opponent escapes, each person will have to deduct 20,000 reward points.

Too much!

The Middle-Continent team simply can't make up for it.

Zheng Zhe has always been worried about whether the Zhongzhou team can complete this task.

"Before I got the Golden Mask, I was only fifty percent sure, and now I ...... Ten percent can't talk about it, and eighty percent of it should be. Chu Xuan laughed.

Seeing that smile, Lin Li's heart twitched.

Isn't this guy calculating anyone again?

"It's very simple, just let a sunflower warrior wear a golden mask, I have tested, this golden mask can make the wearer become a vampire-like evolution, can control their genes to evolve, of course, this is not invincible, any evolution requires energy, when the evolution reaches the limit of energy supply, the wearer will automatically die."

"An ordinary person wearing a golden mask can probably reach the strength comparable to Zheng Zha's strongest state; But if the other party has the lowest level of D-level internal strength, the limit of his evolution is even ten times stronger than Zheng Zha! ”

"You also got a couple of vials of the T-virus from the Sandbank team, and with it, I can greatly enhance the vitality of the wearer."

Chu Xuan sneered: "Sunflower Warrior of C-level internal force + T virus + golden mask + rune armor...... Presumably it can exert the strength of the fourth-order gene lock, right? With such fighters, we can take out six of them at a time, is it difficult to deal with the mechanical ascendants? ”

"But you're going to die if you wear a mask, right?" Zheng Zha said a little unwillingly.

"Will die, but not as soon as you think." Chu Xuan clapped his hands.

A sunflower warrior dressed in runic armor and wearing a golden mask walked out.

"After wearing a mask, their genes unconsciously evolve due to the environment, so even if they don't do anything, they will die...... But according to my calculations, the countdown to their death is about ...... Three hundred years, if he doesn't do anything, he can live at least three hundred years, if his internal strength is refined during this time, he can live longer, if he can reach my level, he can even live fifteen hundred years. ”

"Then why don't you wear it yourself?" Zheng Qi blurted out.

"Because there are so many dangers we need to experience, if we really wear this mask, the speed of evolution will definitely be very fast, maybe it only takes a few horror movies for me to evolve to the limit...... When necessary, I will wear this mask. Chu Xuan said in a flat tone.

Looking at Chu Xuan, whose face did not change, Lin Li lowered his head and pondered.

She knew that Chu Xuan must have lied, but there was also truth in the lie.

Wearing a golden mask doesn't kill you immediately, the wearer who was killed by Zheng Zhe in the original book chased and killed the mummified male and female protagonists for nearly a month, if he hadn't evolved in the battle with Zheng Zhe, there should be no problem with living longer.

But there should also be hidden dangers in this process of survival.

Unfortunately, she didn't know what the hidden danger was.

……

No matter how many holes there were in Chu Xuan's plan, he finally convinced the entire Zhongzhou team.

Anyway, the main force is not himself, and the probability of death is almost none.

Success is the best, and failure is similar to before.

After making a plan, the heavily armed Middle-earth team headed for Peru in South America again with more than 300 Sunflower troops.

Because there are too many people, the governor can't take it all by plane, and the armor of the Sunflower warriors can fly, but when the big war is approaching, the Central Continent team will not have the luxury of wasting their internal strength on the road.

So they chose to take a boat.

After arriving in Peru for nearly a week, the Middle-earth team split into two routes.

All the way as the main force, gathered the vast majority of the strength of the Middle-earth team.

Including more than three hundred Sunflower Warriors and one Sunflower Warrior wearing a golden mask.

On the other side, there were only three people, Lin Li, Zhao Yingkong, and a sunflower soldier wearing a golden mask.

In a sense, the main force of both roads is the sunflower soldiers wearing golden masks.

Chu Xuan only let the two Sunflower Warriors wear masks...... He didn't trust these fighters.

These warriors' armor can give them support in battle, but it is also a suppressor that prevents the Sunflower Warrior from getting out of control.

And the core of the suppressor is the gravity high-power mine that Lin Li took out!

Yes, Lin Li was also worried that the Sunflower Warrior wearing the golden mask would get out of control.

These people are not the creators of the main god space, let alone comrades-in-arms who fight side by side...... A few months ago, they were only the remembrances of the 'Tatar Qing', and they were still looking forward to the restoration of the feudal dynasty.

They see the Middle-earth team as gods, but when they get the power beyond the gods, it's hard to say whether they will betray or not.

With power comes ambition.

Lin Li didn't think that the person who was originally just a eunuch could control the rapidly growing ambition.

Even if they are truly loyal to Team Middle-earth, once the Gene Lock reaches Stage 4, these Golden Mask Wearers will run amok due to the tyrannical consciousness in their genes.

That kind of strength is rampant, and the current Zhongzhou team is uncontrollable!

Since they have been made into weapons, the necessary control must be prepared.

After mastering rune technology, Chu Xuan transformed these two gravity high-power mines into two remote-controlled bombs and implanted them in the abdomen of two warriors wearing golden masks, once they got out of control, the gravity high-power mines would completely crush them into flesh and blood.

Ancient city of Cusco, Peru.

Zhao Yingkong, who was walking side by side with Lin Li, suddenly asked, "What is Chu Xuan's idea?" ”

Puzzled, she asked, "Why did he split ways?" Even if this head is necessary, we can take the Crystal Skull first, and then gather all our strength to deal with the rest of the Mechanical Ascendants, right? ”

Lin Li said with a smile: "Probably because we are afraid that the mechanical ascendant will escape, we don't know how the other party can start the spaceship...... Maybe they haven't left this world yet, they're just waiting for the last crystal head, and once we destroy it or bring it to the ship, the mechanical ascendant who doesn't feel good about it may just escape. ”

"In that case, our mission will fail."

Zhao Yingkong still didn't understand a little: "Then we can also destroy the spaceship first, and then solve the remaining skull." ”

Lin Li guessed: "Mechanical Ascendant...... Will you come back to earth after the ascension? We can't confirm the current state of the Crystal Skull, if it can sense the ship's condition...... Perhaps, after the spaceship is destroyed by us, the consciousness of the crystal skull with no way back will be transferred into the consciousness of ordinary people and become a drop of water in the sea, and it will be difficult for us to complete the task at that time! ”

She shook her head with a wry smile, and then said, "Actually, there is another conjecture...... I'll probably be able to verify this conjecture when we deal with the crystal skull, and hopefully not as I expected...... In that case, Chu Xuan would be too greedy, and he would not take the members of the Central Continent team too seriously! ”

Not much.

The two of them have already arrived at the tomb of Yuriona based on the information obtained by the Middle-earth team's investigation.

The colonist of five hundred years ago had taken one of the heads of the Ascended Machines, which was now hidden in his grave.

"Sure enough, there was a layer of holy light that shrouded around this tomb......"

After turning on the Vision, Lin Li found the entrance to the tomb.

Upon entering the not very complicated tomb, several human corpses wrapped in mummies surrounded by a crystal skull in the center.

The corpses emitted a light invisible to ordinary people, binding the crystal skull.

Knowing what this group of people did to the natives in this land before their deaths, Lin Li was not touched in the slightest, and threw out a grenade unceremoniously.

After blasting those corpses apart, the crystal skull, which had been unresponsive, immediately levitated.

Its hollow eyes met Lin Li's.

Suddenly, a consciousness flooded into Lin Li's mind, and it seemed to be muttering something to Lin Li, as if it wanted Lin Li to send it back to its spaceship.

And then...... It quickly escaped from Lin Li's mind.

But as soon as it returned to its head, it saw an extremely wide katana coming at it.

Casually smashing the crystal skull, Lin Li lowered his head: "It's a pity...... My conjecture was correct. ”
