The arena, which was usually as bright as day, now only had a few small spotlights. The dim yellow light tried its best to pierce through the darkness, illuminating the small area below. Then, as if it had no energy left, the lights disappeared into the night.
There weren't many soldiers on guard, but there were at least a few dozen of them. The captain was sitting on a chair with his arms crossed. Lin Sanjiu wondered if he had fallen asleep. Other than the patrol team, some of them squatted down to rest while others lit up cigarettes. From time to time, they would whisper to each other.
Half of the night had passed, but the female Posthumans remained quiet. The soldiers who had been tense the whole night were a little tired.
"You can rest, but you must not slack off. Keep your eyes open for me. " These words suddenly came out of the motionless captain's mouth. The soldiers quivered and immediately answered in unison, "Yes!"
For half a second, Lin Sanjiu thought that she had been discovered.
She held her breath and waited for a while. When she saw that the soldiers did not move, she crouched down and quietly walked between two capsules. She gestured for the people inside to keep quiet.
There were still five minutes before the next patrol.
Lin Sanjiu thought for a moment. She pressed her hands on the ground and activated the [Mosaic Censorship]. Then, with a loud boom, gravel flew everywhere and a shallow pit appeared on the ground.
"What's that sound? Team 3, go and take a look! "the captain jumped up and shouted with his hoarse voice.
"Captain, the sound came from inside the capsule area. I can't see it clearly!"
Lin Sanjiu's heart was in her throat. The patrol team would not enter the capsule area. They could only sweep the area with their flashlights through the electric fence. Her top priority now was to let them in...
She had no choice but to use the stupid method again. She waited for a while until she felt the patrol team's flashlight disappear. Then, she blasted another small piece of the ground.
This time, the people outside couldn't sit still.
"Inform the control panel to turn off the 'High Energy Barrier'. Team 3 and Team 4, go in and find the source of the sound. Unlock all weapons! "
"So, this thing is called a High Energy Barrier." Lin Sanjiu watched quietly as the electric fence dimmed and disappeared quickly.
There were two teams of twenty soldiers carrying heavy weapons. Step by step, he walked into the capsule area.
The light from the overhead lamp scanned every capsule. All of them were obedient, and the women inside did not make a sound. There seemed to be nothing wrong with them. After walking two rounds like this, when the leader shouted, "No problems found." Twenty soldiers withdrew from the capsule area and the high-energy barrier was activated once again.
The two teams returned to their positions and continued to guard the capsule area that had become silent.
"Strange, where did the sound come from …" the captain muttered. After thinking about it, he sat back in his chair and opened the light screen on his wristband, deciding to report to the higher-ups.
Before he could call out, his shoulder was suddenly touched by a woman's cold voice. From the darkness behind him, a low voice traveled into his ears, "… Have you seen my matches before?"
Captain Nande's hair stood on end in an instant, and his body froze.
"Don't move. Let me introduce myself. I am Contestant 97, Lin Sanjiu." The woman's voice was like the Grim Reaper leaning on his shoulder. "Both of my hands are on you now."
Nande couldn't remember how many duoluozhongs he had seen between Contestant 97's two slender hands. They exploded into a rain of blood and flesh.
He opened his mouth dryly, but no words came out.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
Even though the light was dim, someone finally noticed the strange soldier sticking close to the captain. He shouted, "Go back to your original position!"
When Nan De felt the palm on his back exerting a little force, he suddenly screamed. Cold sweat and his voice burst out at the same time, "I, I asked him to give me a massage! Don't get in my way! "
The person who spoke just now did not say anything. Then, someone else laughed, "Captain, you like this? Why don't you buy a few male mutated humans … "
The laughter was like a gust of wind. It didn't leave any impression in Nande's mind. He could only hear the soft voice praising him, "Good boy."
"I … I can do anything …" Nande's voice trembled. He couldn't control his voice well, so he paused a few times. "Please don't kill me. I have never killed a mutated human …"
"Okay. First, turn off the high-energy barrier. "
Nande felt like there was a huge black hole behind him. If he wasn't careful, he would be sucked into it, and not even his bones would be left. He gulped and contacted the control panel. Even though the other party was very impatient, he managed to use the excuse of "playing it safe" to gloss over it.
A minute later, the electric fence around the capsule dimmed rapidly.
The soldiers who sensed that something was wrong stood up. Someone couldn't help asking, "Captain, why did you turn it off? Do you want to check it again? "
Nande paused for a moment. When he didn't receive any orders from behind him, he gritted his teeth and laughed dryly, "It's almost dawn. I just received an order to retreat …"
The soldiers were silent for two seconds. Then, a person who seemed to be the captain waved his hand. Everyone quickly spread out and picked up their weapons. The sound of weapons being unlocked rang out as they surrounded Nande and Lin Sanjiu.
"Captain is being held hostage!" Someone shouted — —
In the next second, Nande, who was sitting on the chair, exploded into a mist of blood. Dozens of laser beams shot toward the chair. Almost at the same time, they enveloped the small area where Lin Sanjiu and Lin Sanjiu were standing.
"With such powerful firepower, the target should have been taken care of, right?"
Just as this thought flashed across everyone's mind, the dim yellow light above them dimmed for a moment. Immediately, someone realized that it was because a figure had just rolled over their heads.
But before he could change the direction of the muzzle, screams of agony accompanied by a snake-like shadow exploded in the air along with flesh and blood. A few heads that were still wearing anti-radiation helmets flew far away and hit the ground with a thud.
The soldiers who were still alive hurriedly turned their spears, trying to catch the shadow in the air that came and went like the wind. Furthermore, Lin Sanjiu's speed was much faster than a normal human's. Hence, when she landed on the ground, she could see that there were only a few of them. There was no longer a single standing figure.
Lin Sanjiu pressed down on the wound on her arm that was caused by the laser beam.
He didn't expect that Nander to be so smart. If he didn't try to convey something, he and the soldiers wouldn't have died so quickly …
"Ah, I've killed so many people."
From the darkness beyond the reach of the lamplight. Suddenly, a man's brisk voice was heard.
Lin Sanjiu shuddered, and she used her mouthpiece again.
"Don't worry, I'm not your enemy. I'm also an evolved human."
The gentle voice gradually approached Lin Sanjiu. Then, a figure covered in a long robe appeared. The figure stopped when he was still some distance away from Lin Sanjiu. Then, he took off his hat and revealed a fair face.
Even though Lin Sanjiu knew that the figure was a man, his facial features were delicate and soft. There was a feminine beauty to him. At first glance, Lin Sanjiu felt that he was very beautiful. For a moment, she couldn't tell if he was a man or a woman.
"Nice to meet you. My name is Gong Daoyi. Other than being a smuggler, I'm also your number one fan. " The man chuckled, "Don't look at me so warily … Before you knew it, we had already done each other a huge favor."
His words did not ease Lin Sanjiu's cold gaze.
"You have 30 seconds to prove that you are a posthuman."
"Oh, you are so cautious." Gong Daoyi seemed to be very pleased. He waved his right hand and from the darkness behind Lin Sanjiu, a large black figure walked over. It seemed to have appeared out of thin air. Lin Sanjiu had no idea where it came from. Even though she couldn't see its face clearly, it seemed to be some kind of gigantic beast.
"Are you satisfied? I am here to help you. I know that it is very difficult to open the capsule. "Gong Daoyi waved his hand. The gigantic beast's shadow dissipated like smoke and disappeared. "Thanks to you, the radiation sickness outside is very serious. I guess you will take this opportunity to leave. Otherwise, you will be wasting this opportunity."
"How do you know that I did it?" Lin Sanjiu frowned slightly. She didn't ask any more questions. This strange man was right. Even though she could try her [Mosaic Censorship], she wasn't 100% confident that she could open the capsule without harming anyone. She nodded at Gong Daoyi, signaling him to follow her. Then, she turned around and walked to the capsule area. However, she focused all her attention on her back. Every muscle in her body was tense, afraid that she would miss the slightest movement.
Gong Daoyi just squinted his eyes and smiled. He obediently followed her into the capsule area.
All the female contestants stood up from their capsules and rushed to the capsule wall. Their eyes were filled with excitement.
After being trapped in this place for so long, they could finally regain their freedom. Amidst their tears, Lin Sanjiu led Gong Daoyi to the side of the first capsule. "Try to open it," Gong Daoyi said.
The person inside the capsule was Xu Wei. She bit her lip and stared at the two people outside without blinking.
Gong Daoyi laughed. Then, he actually pulled out a little bird from somewhere — the little bird's feathers were very shiny, and its eyes were very lively. The moment he held it in his hand, it called out sweetly, "I want to sing."
"You don't have to sing if you eat this door, right?" Gong Daoyi stroked the little bird's back gently.
The little bird replied, "Yes."
Then, Lin Sanjiu watched in a daze as the little bird suddenly opened its small yellow beak. In a way that could not be explained by physics, the little bird swallowed half of the capsule door.
The thing it ate was the size of dozens of itself. Lin Sanjiu found it hard to imagine where the door went.
"Is this a Special Item?"
Lin Sanjiu hugged Xu Wei, who had jumped into her arms. She patted Xu Wei's back comfortingly and asked with a stutter.
"Yes." Gong Daoyi nodded. When he saw the little bird say "I want to sing" again, he brought it to the next capsule. "In any case, we have to stuff its mouth with food so that it can't sing."
The little bird ate very quickly. In just a short while, it had already rescued dozens of people.
The latter seemed to be prepared for this. He immediately jumped out of the attack range. Only then did the shadow reluctantly stop. It was a dark green cucumber that looked like a large snake.
"Xueqin, what are you doing?" Lin Sanjiu was shocked. She carried Xueqin out of the capsule.
Among the female contestants in the morning, one of them knew a thing or two about bone setting, so she managed to reattach Xueqin's bones. However, she couldn't move, so she leaned on Lin Sanjiu's arm and panted, "It's him! He is the one who sold me to the military police! "
The atmosphere suddenly froze. Then, Gong Daoyi clapped his hands as if he had a sudden realization, "So it's you … I didn't expect you to be captured. Oh, you must have mistaken me for someone else."
If a person's acting skills were to be graded, then his perfunctory manner when he said this was worthy of a negative score.
Xueqin was about to scold him when she felt Lin Sanjiu's grip tighten. She seemed to be hinting at something, so she could only shut her mouth.
"Let's save them first before we talk about anything else." Lin Sanjiu handed Xueqin over to Bai Xiaoke and looked at Gong Daoyi.
Gong Daoyi was still smiling, as if he had no idea that his credibility had fallen to rock bottom.
Including the two female contestants who survived the first few days of the competition, there was a total of 52 people. Soon, all of them got out of the capsules. Apart from one crazy person, who was a little difficult to deal with, the rest surrounded Lin Sanjiu, waiting for her to say something.
"What should we do next? How do we escape? "a voice from the crowd asked.
Perhaps, even these women did not expect that there would be a day when they couldn't wait to return to the apocalyptic world...
Lin Sanjiu looked at them and did not say a word. She turned around and walked into the pile of corpses. She took off a relatively intact anti-radiation suit and held it in her arms.
Feeling the gazes on her back, she said faintly, "I won't stop you if you want to escape and live on your own. Just bring this delirious person along with you. However, I won't leave. "
Li Tao couldn't help asking, "Where … are you going?"
Lin Sanjiu slowly straightened her body and smiled at them.
"No matter where I am, when I leave, that place will inevitably turn into a pile of rubble. It was the same in a supermarket I used to live in. It was the same in a survival camp … "
"I can't think of any reason why Garden of Eden would not be like this."
After a pause, Lin Sanjiu said softly, "I want to stay and destroy their glass dome."
