Countdown 56:00:00.
Qing Chen and the others traveled a long distance for a day, finally moving far away from the activity range of the Chen Family Air Force. Otherwise, everyone would have trouble sleeping soundly, fearing that Chen Yu might suddenly get off the ship and kill them all.
Everyone leaned against the trees to rest. Xiaoyu was sleeping soundly on Qing Chen's lap, while Qing Chen had just cut his Shadow out to stand guard.
Let's just say, this Silhouette thing is really good for guarding. It only needs to be retrieved once every 24 hours, and it's never tired.
The most important thing is that this thing is really dark, and it's hard to be found hiding in the woods.
Qing Chen closed his eyes and rested, calculating the rules here in his mind.
Forbidden Zone 008 Known Rules:
The first rule is that the length of the nasal hair cannot exceed the nostril.
The second rule is that you cannot ride a vehicle with more than two wheels, but you can ride a bicycle.
The third rule is that you cannot wear fur.The fourth rule is that you cannot perform any cleaning actions, including brushing your teeth, washing your face, and taking a shower.
The fifth rule is that the body fat percentage cannot exceed 30.
These five rules are known to the Federation, that is, they are basically mastered by various Conglomerates, or they can be bought on the black market.
Qing Chen also knows.
And when he was acting as the Chen Family Group Army yesterday, he learned six new rules through the deaths of the Wildlanders:
Sixth rule: When walking, you cannot step with the same foot and hand at the same time, commonly known as "shun guai" (walking with a limp).
Seventh rule: Four limbs cannot land at the same time, making a crawling posture.
Eighth rule: Water cannot be spilled on the ground.
Ninth rule: Fingernails cannot grow longer than 5 mm.
Tenth rule: Each sentence must have at least two words. If you only say "um" or "ok", it will violate the rules.
Eleventh rule: You cannot ignore a cry for help.
However, even though eleven rules have been tested, when Qing Chen went to find the Mimosa Pudica, it would still turn into sharp needles.
This shows that Qing Chen still does not know all the rules.
Qing Chen was thinking that the Forbidden Artifact is most likely related to the abilities of Metahumans before their death, while the Forbidden Zone is most likely related to the biggest obsession of Metahumans before their death.
For example, Luo XinYu's unrequited love for Qing Zhen ultimately led to the rule in her Forbidden Zone that only single people can enter.
And the rules of this Forbidden Zone 008 reflect cruelty.
Qing Chen had seen old photos of experimental subjects in the Li Clan school, they were human in appearance, but they crawled on the ground, their skin was grayish-black, and their nails were sharp.
At that time, an entire city was breached by countless experimental subjects, and everyone could only flee for their lives and hide, just like the disaster in City 10.
Someone called for help, but no one helped.
That was a real disaster too.
At this time, Dayu, who was lying on Qing Chen's lap, slowly opened his eyes and met Qing Chen's eyes.
The atmosphere instantly became awkward.
They looked at each other without saying a word.
At one point, Dayu wanted to pretend to be Xiaoyu and call out "Qing Chen gege" (elder brother Qing Chen), so that he could push today's events onto his younger brother in the future.
But he couldn't say those four words.
Dayu just couldn't understand, had Xiaoyu's relationship with Qing Chen reached this point? He had to write to Xiaoyu and tell him to stay away from Qing Chen, Knights aren't good people.
He slowly sat up and selectively ignored the scene just now.
Zard reminded: "We are now in Forbidden Zone 008. The last time you woke up, we were surrounded by the Chen Family troops, and we only got rid of them yesterday."
"Understood," Dayu is a smart person, he knows that since he is in the Forbidden Zone, he cannot discuss the rules, he just needs to follow Qing Chen and Zard and do as they do, and not act rashly.
He knows what kind of existence Forbidden Zone 008 is.
Qing Chen coughed twice: "Since Dayu is awake, we can go and observe the Chen Family troops up close, see if there is a chance to attack, and then escape."
"Boss, are we going to wipe them out?" Zard asked curiously.
"Of course not," Qing Chen smiled: "First, let's see if they really believe our acting, and incidentally kill some people. Let's go, we'll find the Chen Family troops before midnight arrives."
"Wait a minute, why should I help you kill the soldiers of the Chen Family Group Army?" Dayu wondered, "I'm from the Chen Family, okay?"
Qing Chen looked at him: "You and Chen Yu are definitely not on good terms, I guess you are from the Patriarch's line, and you've secretly resented Chen Yu's line for a long time. After all, the Patriarch is treated as a puppet, and there is a Supreme Emperor on top of him, no one can bear it. You made a move outside Forbidden Zone 002 before, what are you hesitating about now, you should stop whatever Chen Yu wants to do."
Dayu didn't speak anymore, the guy in front of him was too smart, he didn't want to give the other party any basis for guessing.
The Chen Family troops did not enter entirely, but first sent a regiment of 1,500 troops, spreading out their formation to explore and map Forbidden Zone 008.
In this regimental unit, the engineering battalion carried a large number of surveying tools, half of which were static 3D capture systems used to create holographic maps.
The Chen Family Group Army wants to pass through here, and a complete map is essential.
At midnight, the soldiers were moving forward with searchlights.
Qing Chen and Zard and others were squatting far away in the grass.
Dayu reminded: "My ability is too eye-catching, and my identity will be immediately recognized once it's used, so you guys fight, I won't use my ability."
Qing Chen remained silent for two seconds: "You don't want to use the little frog, do you?"
Dayu: ""
"It's fine if you don't take action, your ability is indeed too iconic," Qing Chen said.
However, at this moment, a Chen Family soldier wanted to go to the toilet while searching.
So, the person squatted down to urinate not far from Qing Chen and the others.
Dayu was puzzled, does this Chen Family have female soldiers? As a core member of the Chen Family, he had never heard of the Group Army recruiting female soldiers to go to the battlefield. Aren't female soldiers all in field hospitals and labor unions?!
And, using female soldiers to explore the Forbidden Zone is too childish!
But Dayu quickly noticed something was wrong, it wasn't a female soldier, it was indeed a male soldier.
After the person stood up, he didn't pull up his pants, but instead jumped up, grabbed a tree branch above his head, and then slowly spread his legs, beginning to defecate.
Moonlight sprinkled down from the gaps in the dense canopy, and Dayu silently watched the soldier hang from the tree branch in this high-difficulty and strange posture, pulling out piles of shit.
As if doing some kind of performance art.
Qing Chen, Zard, Chen Jiazhang stifled their laughter, their bodies were twitching. It seems that the Chen Family didn't see through their acting, and they have taken the rules they acted out as completely true.
Only Dayu, who didn't know the situation, was shocked for a hundred years by this performance art.
These fabricated rules were all created by Qing Chen, Chen Jiazhang, and Zard, and Xiaoyu also knew what happened.
But Dayu had been sleeping, and he didn't share memories with Xiaoyu and Zhong Yu, so he didn't know the process.
Dayu silently watched the soldier's toilet process, and even felt that his eyes were unclean.
The most important thing is that it wasn't just one soldier doing this, but all the soldiers they secretly observed were doing this!
Dayu saw more than thirty soldiers doing this!
He understood immediately, this is a rule of the Forbidden Zone!
Qing Chen looked at Dayu's smart look, and immediately understood what Dayu was thinking, but the key is that he couldn't explain it.
In this Forbidden Zone, the scope of rules that cannot be discussed is: even if you discuss the wrong rules, you will still violate the rules.
"Don't move, I'll use Shadow to do it," Qing Chen said.
Dayu was right about one thing, Zard and Huan Yu's abilities were too iconic, now Qing Chen is trying to shift the blame to Shendai, so he can't let the Chen Family guess the identity of the killer.
At this time, Qing Chen pulled out some cotton from his clothes and gave it to the three of them, motioning for them to plug their ears, before sending Shadow to kill.
Before sending it out, Qing Chen also tried to put the Forbidden Artifact ACE005, Da Fu, on Shadow.
Shadow's fatal weakness is the center of its forehead, while Da Fu is an indestructible Forbidden Artifact, if this is worn on Shadow's face, it's almost like it can't die.
But unfortunately, although Da Fu's Cat mask can be worn on Shadow's face, it can't use the disguise ability after leaving Qing Chen's cheek, it can't become black and blend in with Shadow.
If this Cat mask comes out, it will probably immediately make the Chen Family associate his identity.
Qing Chen pondered for a long time, and still felt that shifting the blame to Shendai was more important, so he put Da Fu back on his own face.
Dayu pouted, thinking that this guy has so many Forbidden Artifacts.
He was a little jealous.
He is a core member of the Conglomerate, after mixing for so long, he only has two Forbidden Artifacts.
Dayu originally wanted to find a Forbidden Artifact for Zard, but he couldn't find one.
At this time, Shadow had already killed into the exploration area of the Chen Family troops.
Qing Chen's A-Class Shadow has extremely strong lethality and excellent concealment. In just a flick of a finger, the dark Shadow had already killed three or four people in a row.
Shadow shuttled through the woods, crushing the Chen Family soldiers in a completely unmatched posture.
After the Chen Family soldiers reacted, they immediately began to shrink their formation and gather in one place.
They frantically aimed at Shadow's navel and desperately pulled the trigger, but Shadow was too fast, and the soldiers couldn't determine whether they had hit the navel.
Bullets hit Qing Chen's Shadow.
Dayu subconsciously glanced at Qing Chen. He knew that the pain suffered by Shadow would be fed back to the main body.
However, even though Shadow had been hit by hundreds of bullets, Qing Chen remained calm, only frowning slightly.
Dayu felt a deep fear in his heart, can a normal person have this kind of pain tolerance?
Qing Chen smiled and glanced at him: "This Shadow is quite useful."
It must be said that the Silhouette Forbidden Artifact is indeed powerful, especially in the hands of high-level Metahumans, an intrepid and hard-to-kill A-Class Gene Soldiers is terrifying.
The Chen Family soldiers were killed in a rout without any preparation.
In just five minutes, an 180-strong reinforced company was routed, and the soldiers frantically ran towards the outside of the Forbidden Zone.
Someone shouted for help, but the others ignored them and ran.
The next moment, a sudden change occurred, and those soldiers who ignored the cries for help all fell to the ground convulsing!
Rule Eleven: When hearing a cry for help, you cannot ignore it!
The reason why Qing Chen had Zard and the others put on cotton earplugs early and plugged their ears was to prevent everyone from hearing the cry for help and being forced to go out to save people.
If you can't hear it, it's fine.
Just as he was thinking, the reinforced company commander took out a palm-sized flashlight, and when he turned it on, a green laser beam tracked Shadow.
Laser guidance!
Before Qing Chen could control Shadow to dodge.
A crimson beam of light suddenly pierced through the canopy from above, precisely covering a three-meter radius around Shadow.
In an instant, Shadow was melted by the extreme heat, its body shattered into black fragments that fell to the ground, and finally flowed towards Qing Chen like water.
In the position where Shadow was, a huge black hole was burned out within a three-meter radius, and the soil underneath was glazed by the high temperature, which was extremely terrifying.
Qing Chen was stunned, at that moment, he felt as if he had been cremated, and the burning pain spread across his skin, lingering for a long time.
He pulled Dayu and the others: "Retreat! Retreat!"
This laser guidance and aerial response speed were too fast. If you are accidentally hit, you're done for!
Qing Chen felt a little regret, he had only killed a reinforced company, and was forced to retreat in haste, how could he kill the rest?
The four of them retreated while looking up at the sky, afraid that the Chen Clan Fleet would catch up.
Dayu said: "Didn't you shoot down an Airship? Shoot it down too."
Qing Chen said angrily: "That needs to be done in cooperation with Yang Yang, I can't get close to it by myself. And, if Chen Yu is really on that Airship, he can just send a flying God Woman, and Yang Yang and I will both die."
Qing Chen even felt that the Chen Family Demigod hadn't shown up yet, perhaps he was trying to lure people like him and Yang Yang, once someone tried to shoot down the Airship, the flying God Woman would teach everyone a lesson.
Zard curiously asked: "Are we going to intercept and kill them next?"
"Let's not kill them for now, Shadow's CD is 24 hours, we have to wait for Shadow to reappear," Qing Chen said. At this time, his Shadow didn't reappear behind him, but was a chaotic black mist, constantly merging and dispersing.
Once the host's Shadow is shattered, it will enter this state and cannot be condensed again in a short time.
Qing Chen smiled: "Don't worry, let them be tortured by acting for a while, let them go hungry for a few days and be mentally tense for a while, then we will strike with all our strength. Otherwise, the dozens of Metahumans hidden in the Chen Family Group Army are enough to kill us four or five times."
He can't directly say the word "rules", he can only use acting to replace it for now.
Chen Jiazhang slowly said from the side: "If Chen Yu that kid comes, we don't have enough lives to kill him, his painting alone is enough to kill us all two or three times."
Zard raised his eyebrows: "Uncle, how can you boost the morale of others and demoralize yourself?"
"Do you think you can survive a round against a Demi-God?" Chen Jiazhang said with a dry smile.
Zard said seriously: "He can kill me at most once, no matter how powerful he is, he can't kill me a second time."
"I'm using an exaggerated rhetorical device," Chen Jiazhang said helplessly.
This drunkard had already withdrawn from the world, and he wouldn't refute whatever anyone said, but only when facing Zard, he didn't know why, he felt that the Fire Energy in his heart was rising.
Qing Chen said: "Speaking of which, isn't this the spring farm of the Fire Pit? There should be a lot of good things, let's not worry about the Chen Family troops for now, let's search this place first. Zard, when the time comes, you put all those plants in your body and take them back to the Academy, and then let Nangong Yuanyu and Sun Chuci plant them."
"Okay," Zard smiled.
At this time, Dayu suddenly wanted to go to the toilet.
He said in a low voice: "I'll go to the toilet, wait for me here."
Saying that, Dayu left the team and walked far away.
He carefully looked back for a long time, making sure no one was behind him before slowly unbuttoning his pants, then jumping up and hanging his hands on the tree branch.
The next moment, his body froze, his strong A-Class sixth sense made him feel three gazes falling on his back.
Then, a burst of joyous laughter erupted behind him.
Dayu: "???"
