The game continued. In order to find the superhuman with fire abilities, Lin Xue chased him all the way into the cannery and found a heavy iron chain as her melee weapon.
Moreover, this chain could be attached with the ability of flames. When it was waved, it would soar into a blazing flame, and its destructive power was very shocking. When not in use, this chain would be wrapped around the protagonist's arm, which was very convenient.
"Why does it feel like Kratos' weapon? Well, it's a castrated version of the Blade of Chaos … "
Lin Xue went all the way into the cannery and destroyed the fire obstacles that the superhuman created with the iron chain. Amid the flames, explosions, and collapsing buildings, Lin Xue waved the iron chain freely. She felt great.
"Wow, it does feel like I played Brutal Kill the Source a long time ago. This weapon feels a bit like Alex's tentacles! However, VR in this era does feel different! "
Lin Xue was experiencing the feeling. Brutal Kill the Source was an old VR game with many limitations. Now that Lin Xue was controlling Dalson in the game cabin, she could do whatever she wanted. The immersion and freedom of the game was greater.
Inside the cannery, Lin Xue finally caught the superhuman. However, when she grabbed the superhuman with both hands, her vision suddenly darkened. At the same time, she saw some fragmented memories.
This time, Dalson invaded the superhuman's memory again and saw how he escaped from prison.
Lin Xue started fighting with the prisoner in the factory. The prisoner did not have any weapons in his hands, but he could fire fire projectiles at Lin Xue. However, Lin Xue was no longer an ordinary person. She could use her fast movement ability and the close-range attacks of the metal chains to capture the prisoner and give him a good beating.
"Wow, that's a good blow!"
Lin Xue waved the chain and beat the superpower prisoner. The chain, which was covered in flames, was as smooth as the Blade of Chaos. When it hit the prisoner, the chain would raise a cluster of blazing flames, dust, and sparks.
Lin Xue could also feel the warmth of the flames from the heavy iron chain in her hands. When she hit the prisoner, the feedback of the force made Lin Xue very excited.
The prisoner ran away as he fought. It was obvious that he was not in the mood to fight. He kept warning Dalson to give up immediately, or none of them would be able to escape when the hunters came. However, Dalson hoped that the prisoner could tell him how to give up his superpower. The two of them moved around the cannery, setting fire everywhere they went.
However, when Lin Xue ran out of the cannery, the prisoner had already been sealed in concrete and captured alive by the 'relevant departments'.
An old woman who looked like she was in her forties appeared. She was the leader of the United Security Department, Augustine. She was also a superpower user and could use the power of concrete. However, she was now pursuing these superpower users and wanted to throw them all in jail.
Lin Xue had thought that the matter was over, but Augustine was indeed a cunning old fox. He was trying to get information out of Dalson, trying to get all the information out of him.
Dalson was now a superhuman. Once he was exposed, he would be thrown in prison like the others, never to come out again. Moreover, he was not strong enough to fight Augustine.
This was a cutscene. Lin Xue was in Dalson's body, feeling his emotions, observing everything from his point of view, and listening to his conversation with Augustine.
Lin Xue could feel Dalson's nervousness. He did not dare to look Augustine in the eye, and he was stuttering. Fortunately, Dalson was smart enough to use the excuse of 'I get nervous when I see a beautiful woman' to get away with it. Lin Xue could not help but give him a thumbs up for his survival instinct …
Augustine did not notice anything amiss. She turned around and was about to leave.
However, at this moment, there was no telling what was wrong with Dalson's brain, but he actually began to speak in an epic manner and asked, "But I want to say, isn't this too ridiculous? Aren't you a biological terrorist as well? "
However, what Dalson did not expect was that Augustine, who was an expert in analyzing the psychology of criminals, found a loophole in his words. She was sure that Dalson was hiding some crucial information from her, because people who were nervous in such a situation were either cowards or hiding something. What Dalson said earlier had revealed that he was not a coward.
After failing to interrogate Dalson, she turned her attention to Dalson's people. She told Dalson that if he did not tell the truth, she would interrogate them one by one — she would insert concrete into their bones.
"Hey, is that even possible? Doesn't America value freedom and human rights the most?? "
Lin Xue was dumbfounded. She did not expect the woman to be so unscrupulous. However, according to the plot, Augustine and the United Security Department did have the power to overstep boundaries in this world. They could even extort confessions by torture. This was because the people in this world saw all superhumans as terrorists. When it came to related matters, the United Security Department could even temporarily revoke all civil rights.
Lin Xue fell to the ground. She had two choices in front of her, surrender or sacrifice her people.
"What the hell! Why do we have to make such a difficult choice? Isn't this a f * cking fun game?? "
Lin Xue was about to go crazy. She thought that the game would be the same as Killing the Original, where they would just have to kill their way through. However, judging from the UI layout and the options, this should be a branch of the story.
Choosing to sacrifice her people to protect herself was the first step to becoming a villain. Choosing to surrender was the first step to becoming a good person.
There was no time limit to the choice. Lin Xue struggled for a long time before finally deciding to surrender.
"Sigh, I'm too softhearted. I can't watch my people suffer for me. The chubby auntie is so nice to me. I think even if the main character is captured, he should be able to break out of prison, right? Fine, I'll surrender … "
However, what Lin Xue did not expect was that even though Dalson told the truth — that the superpower user infected him with his superpower, Augustine did not believe him at all. Instead, he tortured him even more. Dalson fainted from the pain.
When Dalson woke up, he found himself in a converted hospital room.
Lin Xue instinctively felt that something was wrong. In the last scene before she fainted, she saw Augustine walking towards his people.
The television was playing news about superpower users. Lin Xue sat up from the bed. The ominous feeling grew stronger and stronger.
The longhouse had been converted into a hospital room. Lin Xue saw her people in the cubicles with cement blocks sticking out of their bodies. The pain would be with them forever. Obviously, Augustine did not believe Dalson's words. He interrogated every single one of his people without missing a single one.
What was even more infuriating was that the b * tch left after the interrogation, leaving the people to fend for themselves.
"F * ck, is that b * tch a psycho? I've already surrendered myself, how could she do this to innocent people?? "
Lin Xue, who had always been well-mannered, couldn't help but curse. Although she knew that this was probably planned by Chen Mo, the foreshadowing still made it hard for Lin Xue to accept.
