The torture lasted until even J7 could no longer bear it. Bohemia finally passed away as if a heavy burden had been lifted off her shoulders. When her image disappeared from the prison, Lin Sanjiu's Higher Consciousness had recovered quite a bit. J7's body had also evolved from a melon seed to a hamster. With both of them supporting each other, they finally managed to open the metal gate on the first floor. They peeked out cautiously and heaved a sigh of relief. Thankfully, there was no more level after the prison guards.
Just as both of them stood in the plaza outside the prison building, the announcement that they had been waiting for for a long time rang out, "Congratulations to both players for completing the 'Three-Legged Prison Break' game. All the Higher Consciousness Cubes dropped by the players who died in the game and the players who fought against each other will be distributed equally in the form of Higher Consciousness Rewards. "
According to the instructions of the broadcast, both the human and the machine received a portion of Higher Consciousness. If the Potential Growth Value was the hen, then the Higher Consciousness Value would be the eggs produced by the hen. In situations where there were not enough hens or when the production time was too long, many people were willing to come here to earn some eggs.
Of course, in essence, other than those who could earn a steady profit in the online game, everyone else was just playing a zero-sum game. For example, the "prisoner" characters in the game actually came from the Willpower of the players who had lost in the single-player game.
"We were careless," J7 turned to Lin Sanjiu as its body expanded, "From the perspective of maximizing benefits, we should have defeated more prisoners if we had known that our Higher Consciousness could be used to replenish our Higher Consciousness."
"The difference in combat power was too big," Lin Sanjiu looked at her Higher Consciousness form. She wasn't dissatisfied with the result. This time, other than the Death Row prisoner, they also received a portion of Higher Consciousness from Niu Zhan and Bohemia, "We can always come back next time."
Lin Sanjiu's higher consciousness form was the same size as her own body. After she formed a complete body, she condensed the extra higher consciousness into her 'body' and increased the strength of her higher consciousness form. Lin Sanjiu clenched her fist and tested it. She felt that her strength had increased by a few notches.
After receiving the Higher Consciousness reward, both Lin Sanjiu and J7 were teleported out of the online gaming center. Finally, they could see the vast expanse of space that they had not seen for a long time. It was only then that Lin Sanjiu understood why Bohemia would join the game. Due to the large number of players completing the game at any given moment, the exit of the gaming center was divided into more than ten passageways separated by white ribbons. Each passageway led to a different direction in space. If there was only one person guarding it, even if he ran for his life between more than ten exits, he would still miss his target.
Those who came out from the same game were also sent to the same passage. Once again, Lin Sanjiu and J7 transformed into a ball of starlight. Just as they were drifting through the starry void, they were greeted by a dazzling golden brown star.
"You guys are finally out!"
Bohemia felt that she had been waiting for this day for a lifetime. She had been on tenterhooks for a long time, fearing that something bad would happen to her and she would have to suffer for nothing. Now that she saw Lin Sanjiu, she felt like she had finally seen a ray of hope. Impatiently, she shouted at J7, "Get out of the way!" Then, she sped up.
Just as Lin Sanjiu was about to say something, a highway suddenly appeared from beneath the golden brown star. In the blink of an eye, Lin Sanjiu and Bohemia were connected.
"Come with me," Bohemia breathed a sigh of relief as soon as the highway was connected. Now, even if Lin Sanjiu wanted to run, she could appear beside Bohemia as long as she was not too far away. "... Let's not fight near the online gaming center. Let's leave this area first."
"Her attached conditions are quite interesting..." Lin Sanjiu thought to herself. Just as she was about to catch up with Bohemia, J7 asked, "Where are you guys going? Give me your coordinates. "
"Why?" Lin Sanjiu asked unhurriedly, ignoring the fact that Bohemia's star was flying up and down anxiously. "Are you going to watch us fight?"
"Yeah. I haven't seen many battles between stars, so I want to go and have a look. But I haven't been out in space for half a year, so I need to check on my body first. How am I going to find you when I come back? "
"I don't know —"
Suddenly, Bohemia's golden brown star shot toward Lin Sanjiu, "You two just need to exchange a bit of Higher Consciousness! If you don't know how, I'll teach you! You're such a busybody! "
"You don't say," Lin Sanjiu complimented her again, "Even though you annoy me a little, it's quite convenient to have you around."
Bohemia did not respond to her at all.
After sending J7 away, the golden-brown star turned around and flew in front of them. Lin Sanjiu looked at the road under her feet with great interest as she followed.
With the speed of the stars, they quickly flew out of the online gaming area, leaving behind the clusters of stars that had gathered into a vortex. The light in the sky gradually dimmed, turning darker and darker, and soon became a deep and endless void. Just when Lin Sanjiu was about to ask Bohemia where they were going, the golden brown star suddenly flashed and disappeared.
Her heart skipped a beat, and she stopped immediately. The road still stretched out into the distant starry sky, the end of which disappeared into the darkness, and all was quiet and gloomy. There was not a single star in the vicinity, let alone Bohemia.
"Has it begun?"
Lin Sanjiu became extremely cautious. She floated in the air suspiciously and did not move for a moment. Bohemia's attachment condition was very strange. So far, she had seen the house, the door, and the road, but she had no idea what was going to happen next.
With a thought, Lin Sanjiu transformed from her star form to her human form and landed gently on the road. She could move very fast in her star form, but when it came to combat, it was more convenient for her to return to her human form.
After Lin Sanjiu was connected to the highway, whenever she changed her direction, the highway would follow her. She tried to walk to the other side twice, but she knew that the highway was just a tool that Bohemia used to track her location. So, she decided not to change her direction and just stood there.
However, even though she did not move, the road continued to narrow, and the asphalt surface gradually softened. Finally, it turned into a carpeted walkway. When Lin Sanjiu raised her head again, she realized that her surroundings had changed. She was now standing in a dark and empty room. There was a gray screen hanging at one end of the room, and in front of the screen, there were rows of chairs. In the dim light, Lin Sanjiu could only vaguely make out the vague shapes of the chairs.
"It looks like a screening room."
"Bohemia's attachment condition seems to be related to human buildings …" Lin Sanjiu thought to herself as she stood there hesitantly for a while. However, neither Lin Sanjiu nor Bohemia moved. The screening room remained dark and silent. Lin Sanjiu turned her head to look for the exit, but she was still led back to where she started.
After giving it some thought, Lin Sanjiu felt that since she had come this far, she had no choice but to fight this strange fight to the end. It was impossible for her to take away the Potential Growth Value of her target by creating a building around her. Otherwise, Bohemia would have become the most powerful person in the universe. Lin Sanjiu would definitely do something next.
As the thought flashed through her mind, the screen in front of her lit up, and a beam of light was projected out of nowhere. The pale light was accompanied by the creaking sound of the old projector. A black-and-white image appeared on the screen. Lin Sanjiu was stunned for a moment. Then, she realized that the chairs around her were already filled with people.
Their faces were pale because of the black-and-white image, floating in the darkness. None of them looked at Lin Sanjiu as they were all focused on the screen in front of them. When Lin Sanjiu moved, if she made a sound, she would be shushed.
Lin Sanjiu turned around and saw a few samurai-looking people carrying swords on their shoulders. They were walking and talking to each other. Judging from the grainy quality, it should be an old film.
"Are you going to watch it or not? You're blocking the way! "
A man suddenly shouted impatiently behind her.
Lin Sanjiu was on high alert at the moment. She turned her head when she heard that. However, the man just tilted his head and ignored her attitude. He looked past her and at the screen. Lin Sanjiu also felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by a group of people. Just when she was about to walk to the back of the screening room, she suddenly felt a gust of wind behind her.
"Dodge!" In that split second, Mrs. Manas could only utter that one word. That was more than enough for Lin Sanjiu. She immediately leaped to the side. However, at that critical moment, her legs suddenly gave way and all her strength drained away from her body.
Just like the last time, she was reverted to an ordinary person before she evolved.
Even though Lin Sanjiu was startled, she was already mentally prepared. She immediately rolled to the ground. When she fell heavily on the ground, she felt a gust of cold air brushing past her head.
She looked up and saw a Japanese samurai with a long sword in his hand. He was looking down at her with a gloomy expression. Behind him, a few other samurai also stepped out from the screen. They grabbed the frame of the screen and stood up. The audience around them didn't seem surprised at all. They just turned their heads and watched the scene quietly.
The first samurai quickly rushed toward Lin Sanjiu and raised the long sword in his hand.
The last time Lin Sanjiu faced an unarmed mafia member, it was already a pyrrhic victory. This time, she was up against a few samurai with long swords in their hands.
Lin Sanjiu struggled a few times between the seats, but one of the swords still managed to cut her back. Fortunately, her Higher Consciousness form was much stronger now, so even though she still moved like an ordinary person, the slash only cut her coat and a little bit of her skin. Other than a little burning pain, it wasn't a serious injury.
Lin Sanjiu thought that it wasn't a good idea to continue getting beaten up like this. She suddenly rolled on the ground, and a Japanese katana fell to the ground, almost scraping the hair on her body. She didn't even have the time to stand up. When she turned around, she saw the samurai surrounding her. Lin Sanjiu grabbed a chair and shouted at the woman on the chair, "Get up!" Then, she pulled the chair out from under the woman and threw it at the Japanese samurai.
The woman was startled. She quickly stood at the side and didn't move. "That was close," Lin Sanjiu thought to herself. She quickly retreated to the other side of the projection room. Now, she understood Bohemia's strategy a little better.
In fact, ever since Lin Sanjiu met Bohemia, other than the time she was ambushed by her in the forest, Lin Sanjiu had never seen Bohemia use force. Whenever she fought with Bohemia, it was always within the range of her ability or her attached condition. She rarely fought face to face with Bohemia. The only time they fought in close combat, Bohemia's combat strength could only be described as average …
It seemed that Bohemia was planning to use these samurai to "grind" Lin Sanjiu. Once she was injured, she would seize the opportunity to snatch away her Potential Growth Value.
Lin Sanjiu thought to herself as she quickly distanced herself from the samurai. It was not easy to do that because the screening room was full of people who were in the way. Just as she kicked a man's chair aside and cursed under her breath, her heart suddenly stopped for a moment.
