The bone-chilling breath eroded Zhou Jinru's back, forcing him to stand still and not dare to move. An extremely majestic and tall reflection covered his body, and the very eye-catching shadow of the antlers showed the other party's identity.

Wendigo, Patriot!

But why he appeared in the control room of Broken Avenue, Zhou Jinru couldn't figure it out.

Moving forward slowly with heavy steps, the Patriot faced a tidal wave of Colombian Guards. He only made one movement, raised the spear in his hand, and pointed it at the Guards who were crowded into a ball due to Rogers' sudden rise.

Throw it out.

The spear flew over Zhou Jinru's shoulder, the spear body was wrapped in dark red light, pierced the air, and landed in the center of the crowd with an unparalleled gesture. In an instant, the crowd seemed to evaporate, and the terrifying destructive force caused by it flattened everything.

Zhou Jinru saw far more than the guards that were wiped out by the spear. The landing of the spear seemed to tear apart the boundary between reality and dream, and even exploded part of the underground space.

The patriot's scarlet eyes were extremely eye-catching in the darkness. His huge body walked forward step by step, pulling up the spear that was stuck diagonally on the ground. His progress was like a wall, no matter what was in front of him,

Pushing everything forward, no one or thing can stop his will to move forward.

but!

The patriots did not see Zhou Jinru. Even if Zhou Jinru was standing in front of him, he was never there in the patriots' eyes.

"I am still in a dream, and the Patriots are in reality. Is it because I have a body in the real world that the Patriots cannot see me?"

Cold sweat broke out on Zhou Jinru's forehead. If the patriot's spear was aimed at him, all he could do was seize the time to escape. No operator in Rhode Island can compete with this terrifying ancient man.

One-on-one confrontation.

The patriots waved their spears and walked toward the ground like bulldozers, knocking down all the guards who squeezed in.

Zhou Jinru had no intention of following up. The Patriot's terrible blow wiped out Rogers along with him, leaving him alone again.

Behind you is the control room. In theory, the real control room was destroyed, and now the control room is between reality and dream, and everything has become blurry again.

Zhou Jinru felt a faint squeezing feeling, as if something was trying to squeeze him out of his dream.

"I'm about to wake up. It should be said that the dream here is about to connect with reality. Since I have a body in the real world, I can't continue to maintain the dream. After all, it's impossible for two me to appear at the same time."

Zhou Jinru thought clearly in his mind and stepped into the control room. His whole body seemed to have sunk into a ball of cotton, soft and gentle, but out of place.

There was a lot of noise in his ears, and there were people speaking various languages, men, women, old and young. Zhou Jinru found that his rationality had dropped a few points, and those words that were so messy and disorderly that it gave people a headache began to become clearer.

stand up.

"...The guards are right outside, do we really want to surrender?"

This is the voice of a young man.

He was answered by an old voice: "What can we do if we don't surrender? They have advanced weapons and advanced theories, and they have proposed a condition that everyone can accept. As long as we hand over this place, we can take everyone with us."

Get on board, it’s the era of mobile cities.”

"But, will those Colombians really fulfill their promises?"

The old voice said without any doubt: "In order for more people to live, all we can choose is to agree. Don't forget, the name of this city is named with the word "sacred", but any city with the word "sacred" at the beginning has become a mobile city.

,Do not worry."

Crying, anger, despair, pain, regret...

All kinds of negative emotions surged up, all of which were passively absorbed by Zhou Jinru's talent. He suddenly had a splitting headache and even breathing became extremely difficult.

"Uh uh uh uh uh!"

Zhou Jinru grabbed his own throat and half-knelt on the ground, his eyes bloodshot and painful moans coming from his throat. What he endured was the conversation between two locals on the eve of the destruction of the control room.

The reason why this conversation was preserved in disguise is that the negative emotions gathered by the Saint Aralites were absorbed by the Origin Stone. Over the years, they continued to replay themselves in the core of the dream until they were absorbed by Zhou Jinru.

At the same time, Deep Sea Councilor Grace, who had been secretly observing the situation, discovered something strange, and his subordinates came to report the situation.

"Your Excellency, Congressman, a hidden node where black water breaks through the dreamland has disappeared."

Grace said coldly: "I already know that there are very few people in St. Aral who can do this. Timos is going to command the battle to seize control of the ship. The old woman is staring at me. The rest

Yes, the only one is the doctor from Rhode Island. He is an unstable factor. Find a way to eliminate him."

"His identity in the dream is that of Saint Aral. We can't do anything to him, otherwise we will have a head-on battle with Deimos. But in reality, it is different. We must find a way to eliminate him, or at least force him out of the dream.

."

Zhou Jinru didn't know this. He sat with his back against the console for a while and finally regained his breath. The sequelae were bursts of tingling in his temples and his consciousness was quite blurred.

"This is the control room. What are the Patriots doing here?"

Zhou Jinru, who barely supported his body and was sweating profusely, finally had a chance to see the true appearance of the control room. There were traces of destruction everywhere. Even some button machines were exploded with bombs. Strangely, some damaged machines were abandoned.

Over the years, they have become extremely rusty, while some of them look like they have just been destroyed, and clear cuts can still be seen.

"Is everything broken?"

Zhou Jinru wiped his sweat and pressed the button, no matter whether it was good or bad, trying to get lucky.

"Wait a minute, this is the control room of Broken Avenue, what is it controlling?"

When he pressed a half-broken red button, the cracked half of the electronic display suddenly lit up. Zhou Jinru looked at the sparks constantly bursting out from the other half, pretending that nothing had happened, and focused on the screen.

"Verifying identity..."

Click.

A relatively well-preserved probe lowered from the wall behind Zhou Jinru and recorded his back. Soon, an electronic synthesized voice sounded on the screen: "Verification passed. Dear defender, do you want to activate the preheating mode?"

"What is the preheat mode?"

"The preheating mode is a basic defense measure. The energy grid arranged underground can provide a certain degree of protection. The currently operational defense measure is ground fire, which intermittently ejects flames from the ground to form an isolation zone."

Zhou Jinru rubbed his forehead. He didn't expect that there was such an effect in the control room. Didn't the original Saint Aral people notice it?

"No, maybe they really don't know, because the control room defaults to me as a defender, so I have the authority to activate the ground fire."

According to Carter and Rogers' description, the last defender died in the battle to eliminate the Terminator, so...

"Oh my God, how long have you been around?"

"Dear defenders, 529,982 rotation days have passed since the system officially started operating."

Zhou Jinru looked confused when he heard this, and he calculated in his mind that everyone was dumbfounded. This big thing was already in operation 1,400 years ago?

Just when he was shocked and speechless, a scarlet light flashed on the screen: "Your Excellency Defender, the system has detected the existence of twisted creatures on the ground, and the ground fire defense system automatically turns on. Please leave the control room immediately. This place is about to be closed and is prohibited.

All creatures come in and out, and there are still 30 seconds, 29 seconds, 28 seconds before they are closed..."

Zhou Jinru didn't have time to think too much. His feet slipped and he rushed out of the control room. He returned to the surface with weapons and shields, but an extremely distant shout came to his ears.

PhD……

PhD……

This is Li's voice. He was attacked in the real world?!

…

…

The rain from the sky was still falling, and the Kingslayer was already soaked to the skin and a little cold. She tried several times but failed to flash up, and was always just a little bit away.

"How can I get out of here? If I'm caught by Rhode Island again, they won't let me go easily."

For some reason, the Regicide suddenly found that the water under his body was no longer so cold. It was warm and comfortable, and his tense nerves were slightly relieved.

Are the people in this city so good at enjoying themselves? They also have an outdoor hot spring. They really know how to have fun.

The Regicide simply curled up in the water. After all, he was wet and cold, and his physical energy was exhausted. It was very comfortable to hide in the warm water.

"I'll just walk around Rhode Island from now on."

The regicide closed his eyes slightly. After a while, he opened his eyes, stood up from the water, and stared blankly at his hands.

There seems to be something wrong, the water temperature seems to be getting hotter and hotter.

"No way……"

In just a few minutes, the temperature increased from lukewarm to hot water. The regicide turned pale and looked frightened. She had to find a way to get out of here immediately. Otherwise, she would really be cooked by the hot water here because of the temperature of the water.

Still rising!

"Ah ah ah, I don't want to die, I don't want to be cooked, hurry up, get up there!"

Why do you eat so much, why do you like to sit and play video games after eating, why are you used to such a comfortable life...

Hey, hey, hey, so hot, so hot!

The temperature of the water has become unbearable. The Kingslayer tried his best to flash upwards. His figure appeared half a meter away from the entrance of the cave. He couldn't find any place to use his strength. He tried hard to grab something with his fingers, but couldn't catch anything.

If you don't hold on, you will fall down again.

But the water below is already very hot!

The fear of death occupied the girl's heart, her eyes widened, and her body began to fall. Trying her best to activate the Origin Stone skills had no effect because the flash interval had not passed yet.

"No!"

The girl hit the rock wall, her body spiraled down, and she was about to come into direct contact with the boiling water with bubbles. At the critical moment, she suddenly felt a sharp pain at the base of her tail, and a hand grabbed her from behind.

tail, and the falling body stopped in mid-air. After two seconds, it began to move upward slowly.
