Chapter 45. Subjective time delay
Stewart caught up with him from behind in disgrace, and exclaimed in surprise: "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. It is estimated that the concentration of nearby Originium particles is too high, causing the electronic equipment to malfunction."
"There is nothing we can do about it. We need to seize the time to repair it. We need more support."
As soon as he finished speaking, Centurion Sakaz in the street ahead raised his sword and slashed hard at a slightly larger Originium Insect. There was a loud noise, and a large crack opened in the ground under the centurion.
However, before he could close the knife, more Originium Insects emerged from the ground, turning the building that had just been blown down into a decoration.
A private car parked on the roadside was overturned by Originium crystals growing from the ground. At the same time, the nearby buildings began to slowly sink, just like what Zhou Jinru saw in the northern industrial zone.
"Fall back!"
W appeared at the edge of the street, holding a small grenade launcher in his hand. Without even aiming, he raised his hand and fired a grenade into the swarm of Originium Insects, immediately blowing up a swarm of Originium Insects.
The Sakaz mercenaries who guarded the streets retreated one after another. There were more than fifty people in total. In addition to the few flag bearers and close combat personnel that Zhou Jinru had seen, there were also a dozen or so magicians who did not show up.
Just when W was about to launch the second grenade, he noticed that the Origin Stone Worm crawling out of the crack in the ground had obviously slowed down, and its crawling speed had become very clumsy. Not only that, it had grown to more than one meter high on the roadside.
The Originium crystal suddenly began to disintegrate, shattering into 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 withdrew from him, but he still stood motionless, with only a little magician guarding him.
W's intuition told her that the changes that happened to the Origin Stone Worms should all have something to do with him.
Zhou Jinru tried to open the lighthouse in the sun for the first time. Needless to say, the effect was not much worse than Seria's calcified force field. It is not known whether it has the effect of increasing damage, but the deceleration effect is good, and it is also effective against Originium crystals.
suppression effect.
As for why he stood still, it wasn't because he wanted to be a tough guy, but because he encountered a side effect of turning on the lighthouse with a small chance, and he couldn't move for the time being.
Stewart, who was next to him, quickly noticed something strange and quickly asked: "Doctor, how do you feel?"
"I... can't seem to move."
Stewart was startled and stretched out his hand to lift Zhou Jinru up. At this time, the Sakaz mercenaries who had left turned back. One of them picked up the doctor from Rhode Island and walked back. Their actions frightened them and they came out of the campus.
Doberman jump.
"What are you going to do?!"
"Don't be nervous, there is something wrong with his body."
W finally fired the second grenade, which exploded in the street behind them, and a burst of smoke rose up. She quickly turned around and ran, past the Dubin and Rhode Island operators, as well as the Sakaz mercenaries, and got into the integration
Sports car.
Zhou Jinru was carried a few steps by two Sakaz mercenaries, and his body regained some consciousness. He could feel that he was regaining control of his body, and struggled: "Stewart, detonate, detonate them all!"
On both sides of the street where they were walking quickly, there were explosions from several buildings. They collapsed suddenly, with bricks and stones flying, and then fell to the ground. No Originium worms came out, and no Originium crystals grew. They fell into a deathly silence.
.
When Zhou Jinru passed by Du Bin, he shouted: "Has the communication been restored?!"
"Trying to get in touch with Miss Shihuaiya!"
He felt the strength of his palms regaining strength. He swung his arms and broke away from the hands of the two Sakaz people. He supported his heavy body and said quickly: "There is no time. Are you sure there are no students in the school?"
Dupin, who has always been capable, rarely responded immediately: "...the wormwood has not come back yet."
"Go find it quickly!"
Zhou Jinru held the long sword, and behind him stood the Sakaz man who had not left for a long time. He whispered: "You go, obey W's order."
Ansel hurried over with a medical kit and asked with concern: "How is the doctor feeling now?"
"I'm fine, don't worry."
He stood up with difficulty, and there was a slender test tube between his fingers. The thick black liquid did not let out any light in the sun.
In that distant day in St. Martin, Zhou Jinru, who was about to leave the private house of a certain researcher, got two such test tubes, which he kept with him. The other person said that these test tubes could be used as stimulants, but the color was too weird, which caused him to delay
Reluctant to use it, he gave the other one to Kelsey to test its ingredients. Kelsey did not explain the specific results, but just said that she could drink it when needed.
Zhou Jinru didn't doubt Kelsey's words at all. He glanced at the silent campus, unscrewed the stopper of the test tube, and poured the thick black water into his mouth.
The taste was a bit strange. It did not remain in the mouth when he swallowed it. He felt nothing during the five seconds it slid down his throat. Just when he was doubting whether the potion had any effect, the transparent panel in front of him suddenly lit up and continued to highlight.
I feel like my spirit is rapidly moving away from my body, my line of sight gradually rises, from the first-person perspective to the third-person perspective, and it keeps rising!
Getting higher and higher, overlooking the street of Saint-Aral, it soon turned into an entire land city. He saw that a quarter of the city in the north had collapsed, and a large number of black sources
The stone was overflowing from the ground, but the upward movement had not stopped. It was still rising, from a city to a wilderness and then to a country, so that he could not react at all!
"...Routine testing is in progress, and the progress is 7%."
"... A large amount of energy overflow has been detected on the surface, and the security protocol is being reviewed. The review is expected to be completed in 40 minutes, and intervention will begin in 56 minutes. This intervention will last for 4.5 hours and will cause a 21% local overload.
Within a safe range.”
"...Dear defender, it has been detected that you are within the range of energy overflow. In view of the fact that you have entered the third stage of personal enhancement and are undergoing protocol review... The review has been passed, the relevant agreement has taken effect, and the unlocking ability is subject to slowdown.
Taiyue Base looks forward to your next visit.”
Plop! Plop! Plop!
With a strong heart beating in his chest, Zhou Jinru's eyes fell from the sky at an extremely fast speed and crashed into his own body. His feet staggered and he almost fell. Fortunately, Ansel beside him caught him in time.
"PhD?"
"I……"
