Chen Chen held the head in his hand and stared intently at the statue of the mayor of Los Angeles. He waited for a while but did not see the angel statue.
Was it because the memetic process was interrupted and Chen Chen killed it before it could transform into an angel statue? Or was it because his gaze stopped the transformation?
With this in mind, Chen Chen looked at the wall behind the statue and at the same time, a thought occurred to him – there was a loud bang and a large hole was blasted into the wall of the mayor's office out of thin air!
A large amount of smoke and dust billowed into the air and sunlight shone in through the hole. However, Chen Chen merely waved his hand and the statue that was transformed from the mayor flew out with a whoosh and landed on the lawn outside the city hall. As it shattered, it plowed a deep hole in the lawn!
The statue was pressed into the deep hole to avoid the eyes of the passersby outside the city hall. At the same time, Chen Chen put some distance between himself and the statue. After that, Chen Chen closed his eyes and quickly opened them in less than a second.
However, the headless statue was still lying there quietly, not moving at all.
Seeing this, Chen Chen could basically confirm that before the opponent transformed into a new angel statue, he could stop the transformation by killing it first.
After summing up this experience, Chen Chen informed Little X about it first before returning to the inner corridor of the city hall and continuing his search along the corridor.
Currently, the Los Angeles city hall was suffering heavy casualties. There was no telling how many statues were hidden here. In any case, Chen Chen did not see any living people along the way, only corpses with their necks broken.
However, it seemed that a large number of police officers were used to seal off the Herrank Warehouse District. Since the beginning of the incident, there was not a single police officer. Instead, passersby on the street kept looking in this direction in bewilderment. Some of the bolder ones even stopped in their tracks and stopped to watch.
Looking at the passersby outside the window, Chen Chen could not help but frown. If this group of people happened to take pictures of the angel statue, there would be a big problem. However, just as he was about to pick up a gun from a security guard and fire a few shots to scare these people away, he suddenly had an idea.
The gaze of this group of people might be a good cage to prevent the angel statue in the city hall from leaving this place, preventing a larger spread.
With this in mind, Chen Chen pressed a button on his headset and instructed, "X, there's a group of people outside the city hall taking pictures of us with their phones. Keep a close eye on the internet. If either me or the angel statue is posted on the internet, make sure to delete and destroy it as soon as possible. Also, note down the identity of this person."
"Understood."
Little X replied. As for what to do after memorizing it, of course, Little X understood tacitly.
This was because if this person filmed Chen Chen or the angel statue, it would be fine if it was Chen Chen who was filmed. At most, the Black Knights who came to clean up the mess would punish them with memory erasing. However, if it was the angel statue that was filmed, it would mean that they had seen the statue in the video...
Although it was heartless, if the group of people were scared away, it would cause the statue to leave the City Hall and enter the city. Then, it would be even more difficult to find it again.
After that, Chen Chen continued walking toward the depths of the city hall.
Initially, Chen Chen thought that it would not be difficult to find traces of the angel statue. All he had to do was follow the corpse. However, after searching the entire floor, he did not find a second statue.
"Looks like I'm a step too late."
Seeing this, Chen Chen could not help but sigh. "Since the angel statue was located outside the city hall when it was discovered, it seems that the other statues have entered the city."
"That's right, I also found relevant information on the internet."
Little X was also a little dejected. "Just half a minute ago, I was monitoring the phone calls of the Los Angeles police department. Someone reported that someone's neck had been twisted, but there were no statues found at the scene."
"If the city hall doesn't find them, we'll have to look for them outside."
Chen Chen said. He was just about to head to the second floor of the city hall when he suddenly heard the sound of sirens coming from afar.
The sirens were very noisy. It would take at least a dozen police cars to produce this kind of sound. In addition to the police cars, Chen Chen also heard a beeping sound coming from afar. It was the sound of helicopter propellers.
Chen Chen walked to the fracture in the wall and looked into the sky. Sure enough, he saw several black dots in the distance approaching. These black dots were the iconic Chinook helicopters of Northern America.
"Reinforcements sent by the nearby military base?"
Chen Chen frowned. Since the reinforcements had arrived, he naturally did not need to continue taking risks here. Besides, he had just killed the mayor of Los Angeles and was now in such a city hall covered with corpses. Even if he wanted to explain himself, there was no way he could.
Thinking of this, Chen Chen shook his head slightly. He directly rushed out of the city hall through the window and quickly flew into the sky!
"Boom!"
There was a sonic boom. All the onlookers in the city hall only saw a figure rushing out of the city hall. At the same time, a large cloud of water mist burst out around the figure. The figure directly shot into the sky hundreds of meters high and then disappeared!
“OH
GOD！”
“SUPER
MAN！”
The onlookers let out a burst of exclamation and at the same time, frantically pressed the shutter of their phones, hoping to capture the amazing scene just now...
After flying thousands of meters in the sky, Little X's voice sounded. "Sir Godfather, the Northern American police are about to arrive at the city hall. You must leave immediately."
"I've already left."
Chen Chen took a deep breath and replied a little breathlessly, "Contact the mayor of the police station here and tell them to be careful of the deep pit buried in front of the city hall. There's a killer statue in it. Then, give me the address of all the police who have found the angel statues. I'll go take care of them."
"But your body..."
Little X was a little hesitant. "You've been fighting for a night. Overuse of Field energy may risk brain damage."
"There's no time to worry about that now."
Before she finished, Chen Chen interrupted Little X's persuasion. "Many of the surveillance cameras aren't connected to the Internet. If these cameras are seen by someone, new angel statues will be generated. In addition, everyone is using mobile phones. If I don't do it myself, it'll be difficult to remove all of this. If it really causes a memetic outbreak, there'll be endless consequences..."
"... Understood, I'll send the Black Knights to cooperate with you."
Little X had no choice but to say, "So far, there have only been three reported cases. They're located at the 'Brod Museum of Modern Art' 0.8 kilometers west of the city hall, the 'Grand Central Market' 0.7 kilometers southwest, and the entrance of the church 300 meters northeast of the city hall."
Upon hearing these three locations, Chen Chen did not hesitate to land on the northeast side of the church. However, this time, to prevent himself from being filmed, he took out the cloaking device that he had not used for a long time and made himself completely invisible.
At the same time, because Chen Chen did not enter supersonic speed, when he landed silently in front of the church, no one noticed him.
This was a medieval Romanesque church. At this time, there was a large group of people gathered in front of the church. This group of people surrounded a corpse and there were even nosy people taking pictures of everything with their mobile phones.
Chen Chen was speechless when he saw the crowd watching the commotion. After that, he looked around and saw dozens of angel statues of different shapes on the walls and dome of the church.
These statues were embedded in the outer walls of the church, exuding a strong medieval Roman atmosphere. However, at this moment, these statues seemed to contain an indescribable murderous intent.
No one could tell which of these angel statues were real and which were fake.
Chen Chen maintained his invisible state and walked through the door of the church. At once, he saw a vast and glorious main hall. Dozens of rows of seats were neatly arranged in the hall and a large number of murals surrounded the hall. It was a dazzling sight.
Due to the death in the outside world, everyone had left the church. The entire church was empty.
However, at this moment, Chen Chen suddenly saw that at the top of the church hall, there were two angel statues on each side of the cross of Jesus.
One of the angel statues spread its hands as if preparing to welcome the embrace of God. The other statue maintained a silent posture while at the same time, at the same time, its hands were crossed over its chest as if it was saying mass.
Chen Chen stood in front of the door and quietly watched the two statues, then blinked slightly.
In an instant, the statue with its crossed hands disappeared.
Chen Chen's pupils shrank. He quickly looked around, only to see that the statue had appeared thirty or forty meters to his right. Moreover, its posture had changed to a posture of spreading out its hands and lowering its head to look at its hands.
Seeing this, Chen Chen was just about to make a move, but at this moment, an indescribable sense of palpitation hit him, forcing Chen Chen to turn his head. The moment he turned his head, he saw that the statue with its hands spread out before had also changed its position and appeared in the aisle four or five meters in front of him!
The two statues were both real!
At this moment, an indescribable sense of crisis broke out. Chen Chen quickly retreated without thinking, but at the same time, he only felt a slight pain in his neck, followed by an indescribable numbness!
"Crack!"
At this moment, Chen Chen heard a crisp sound. It was the sound of his neck being twisted. The Field energy around him could not withstand it at all, not even Detection could detect the existence of the other party!
"Bang!"
Chen Chen quickly retreated under the inertia of the Field energy and at the same time, bursts of water mist erupted around his body. He almost instantaneously accelerated to a speed of supersonic speed, but even so, it was still too late. His neck had been completely twisted by the memetic rules!
Chen Chen flew out of the church like a puddle of mud and then rolled on the ground. It was not until all the inertia was removed that he came to a stop like a broken sack!
"Huff... Huff..."
Chen Chen only felt a sharp pain in his head. He wanted to breathe, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not inhale air because his neck had been completely broken and he could not control the air that his lungs inhaled at all...
Not only that, but his perception of his body also began to disappear rapidly, leaving only the indescribable pain in his neck and his gradually blurring consciousness...
"Sir Godfather, what happened!"
"Sir Godfather!!"
"Chen Chen!"
Chen Chen could hear Little X screaming beside his ear, but he could no longer respond. His figure exited the invisibility state and appeared on the ground without any reservation. Coupled with the commotion caused by his escape from supersonic speed, the people outside the church were startled!
Most of this group of people screamed and fled from here as if they had seen a ghost, but there were still a few people who surrounded him in shock...
Was he going to die?
Chen Chen looked at the sky, a trace of nostalgia for life flashed in his eyes. At this moment, his brain was clearer than when he used NZT-48. Scenes of the past flashed in Chen Chen's mind, from his birth, primary school, middle school, and the joy of his parents when he was admitted to a famous school in China...
Then, his life began to turn. The USB drive, Xia Yin, experiments, dropping out of school, Little X...
In these few seconds, there seemed to be countless memories flashing in front of Chen Chen's eyes, but his mind remained abnormally clear.
Was he going to die?
No, he wouldn't die!
He had supreme power, wealth that could rival a country, and the USB drive that could change the world. How could he die?!
He still had to take care of his parents and give them eternal life. He still had to take charge of the Earth Federation and fly out of the earth. He had endless time to accomplish all of this, how could he die?!
He would not die!
He would not die!
An endless desire to survive surged in his heart. At this moment, the Field energy in Chen Chen's mind surged again. In the next second, the skin of his neck tore apart, revealing the dark red muscle tissue at the bottom and a large number of blood vessels!
At the same time, the muscles in his neck broke off one by one, exposing the deeper trachea, veins, and arteries. At this time, his two blood vessels had been completely ruptured. Once exposed, they spewed out gurgling blood!
However, immediately after that, as if two invisible hands had appeared, his blood vessels suddenly healed little by little. No, it was not healing, but it was bound together by an invisible force, forcibly maintaining the continuous flow of blood!
This scene was witnessed by several passers-by. These passers-by screamed as if they had seen a ghost, and some took out their phones to record in amazement.
However, at this time, Chen Chen did not care about this. In the next moment, Chen Chen's lungs expanded again and began to recover, but this recovery was still powered by Field. Chen Chen used Field to forcibly contract and expand his lungs!
After doing all this, Chen Chen continued to multitask. He divided a portion of Field to lift his body and let himself stand again!
"Devil, devil!"
After seeing this, everyone finally realized the strangeness of this Chinese in front of them. One by one, they screamed shrilly and fled!
