The Nine-Faced One didn't speak again.
A line of glowing text quickly appeared in front of Gu Qing Shan's eyes:
[Your Causality Reflector has refused to surrender]
[This time's Demonic Sacrificial Ritual will now officially begin]
[Liao Xing is about to fall into an extremely dangerous situation for him — — - if he doesn't survive, both you and him will die here]
After reading that, Gu Qing Shan looked at the other side of the bed.
Only to see Liao Xing sitting on the edge of the bed, scowling as if a bit uncomfortable.
"Are your wounds serious just now?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"I've recovered" Liao Xing replied.
He took out a pack of cigarettes from his waist pocket, only to find it empty, so he tossed it on the ground and cursed:
"— — -addicted to smoking, damn it, that stupid insect, why didn't it try to tempt me with a pack of cigarettes?"
Gu Qing Shan replied: "It probably didn't want to bother with you anymore, so it's trying to create more danger in order to kill you"
"Hmph, with your strength, wouldn't it be a piece of cake for you to come up with something to kill me?" Liao Xing squinted his eyes and asked cautiously.
Gu Qing Shan recalled the Sacrificial Ritual of the Death Arena and explained:
"That's not the case — — - in truth, this sacrificial ritual is very particular, a certain balance must be achieved in order to activate the relevant Causality Law — — - if you directly crush the world you're in, that would be a violation and destruction of all Laws, unable to fulfill the requirements of the sacrificial ritual"
"Specifically, what will happen to me?" Liao Xing asked.
"Everything will be based on your strength, there will most likely be situations that are extremely dangerous for you" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Hearing that, Liao Xing's expression became serious.
"Strength … I'm just a fucking scientist, where would I get my strength from?"
He stood up and looked around.
The small room only had a bed and a chair, the floor was covered in dust, a dark-colored curtain covered the window, so it was a bit dim.
Liao Xing turned to Gu Qing Shan and asked: "Although you can't do anything, you can at least talk"
"Correct" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Do you have any suggestions?" Liao Xing asked.
"I suggest that you memorize the breathing mantra, it will allow you to exert three times your normal strength for a short period of time" Gu Qing Shan said.
"What kind of mnemonic chant could be so powerful?" Liao Xing asked.
"Qi Training 1st layer" Gu Qing Shan answered.
He pointed at the door and said, "We'll talk as we walk. You have to hurry up and take a look outside."
"I think so too" Liao Xing said.
The two of them pushed open the door and walked out. They walked down the stairs and arrived at the front desk of the hotel.
"Do you want to check out? Sir? "
A blonde woman standing behind the counter asked.
"No, I'm just going out for a walk" Liao Xing replied.
He walked out a few steps, then turned back and smiled. "Ma 'am, I know this may be very rude, but I still have to tell you from the bottom of my heart that you look very beautiful today."
The woman looked at him in surprise.
This person was too handsome, and not only was he handsome, he was also quite manly and had an elegant demeanor.
"Thank you," the woman replied with a smile.
Liao Xing nodded to her and turned to leave.
"Sir, where do you want to go?" the woman's voice came from behind him.
"I'm going to take a walk with my friend" Liao Xing answered.
"Your friend?" the woman doubtfully asked.
"That's right, that's him" Liao Xing pointed at Gu Qing Shan next to him.
"— — -she can't see me, so I'm basically a bystander, not part of your current world" Gu Qing Shan quickly reminded him.
Liao Xing raised his hand and pointed at the door: "— — -he's already waiting for me outside"
"Ah" the woman suddenly realized and said: "If you need a map, I can sell it here"
A map!
Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised and whispered: "A map is quite useful to us"
"But I don't have money" Liao Xing whispered back.
"That's fine, just try to take a look" Gu Qing Shan said.
"Ma 'am, can you show me what kind of map it is?" Liao Xing smiled and asked.
The woman took out a map and showed it to Liao Xing.
Gu Qing Shan glanced at it and said: "I'll remember it"
"My dear ma 'am, I already have this map, I'm sorry" Liao Xing smiled and said.
"It's fine, I was just thinking that since you're out on a business trip, you might need it" the woman put the map back.
"Thank you, thank you!" Liao Xing nodded to her again and left.
The two of them walked on the street.
The scenery around here was quite lively, with a lot of people and carriages.
— — -but obviously, this wasn't my homeworld.
"Look, those are electric cars and gasoline cars" Liao Xing said.
"There are planes flying above the clouds" Gu Qing Shan said.
"No Mechs"
"A.I. is still in its early stages"
"Their weapons — –"
The two of them looked around, their eyes quickly fell on a middle-aged man in a police uniform.
"It's a handgun … very old" Liao Xing said.
Gu Qing Shan fell into thought.
This place should be an ancient technological world.
— — Liao Xing is a normal human, his abilities are also within the realm of technology, so this world fits his strength and identity perfectly.
Gu Qing Shan asked: "Wait a minute, did you memorize the chant I gave you just now?"
"I did, I'm trying to adjust my breathing — — - I'm the number one scientist of the Federation, these things are nothing to me" Liao Xing replied.
"Then practice a bit more, I'll give you the second stage of the chant later"
The two of them walked down the street. Gu Qing Shan quickly stopped in front of a display window.
Liao Xing also couldn't help but stop.
All the screens were showing the same scene.
A man who looked like a politician was giving a speech, listing the despicable deeds of the neighboring country.
"What are you looking at?" Liao Xing asked.
"I'm looking at the danger you might face — — -" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Liao Xing was surprised.
That's right, he's already been out for a few dozen minutes without seeing anything too dangerous.
Could it be …
He looked at the TV screen.
The man on the TV had just finished his speech, then displayed a serious expression and continued:
"That's right, we're going to declare war on them!"
Liao Xing's expression changed a bit as he looked down the street.
Only to see that the people on the street were walking faster, while the cars were roaring away.
An inexplicable atmosphere filled the entire city.
"This is a city near the border, once war breaks out, this city will be the first to bear the brunt" Gu Qing Shan said.
"So that's why …" Liao Xing muttered.
Using a large-scale war to kill a single person.
That's a bit … too much.
But if they can kill Gu Qing Shan — — -
The 9 Faces probably want nothing more than to destroy the entire world to destroy Gu Qing Shan.
"So for me, the most dangerous situation is a war" Liao Xing commented.
"— — -unfortunately, we still don't know how far this world's science and technology has progressed" Gu Qing Shan mused.
"That's why we don't know how the war will unfold either" Liao Xing added.
He appeared troubled and muttered: "I don't have any money right now, I don't have any status, and I don't know anyone in this world …"
"You already have a map" Gu Qing Shan pointed at her head.
"What can a map do!?" Liao Xing glared at her.
"Liao Xing, you're a scientist on the same level as me, carefully think about how you're going to deal with this — — - this is related to your own life" Gu Qing Shan crossed her arms and said.
Liao Xing became serious and asked: "Is there a place to find a job?"
"The job market is about 3 kilometers ahead of you on the left" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Let's go!" Liao Xing immediately said.
They hurriedly made their way to the job market.
This was a large square with tables and people standing around, waiting for job seekers to come up and ask questions.
Liao Xing carefully looked around and said: "There's a big problem — — although they're all speaking human language, the language they use is different from ours"
"That's right" Gu Qing Shan replied.
They don't even know what kind of people they're looking for, what do we do now?
And war is already upon us — — -
A commotion came from not too far away.
Someone was shouting, wanting to hire a group of people.
Liao Xing silently listened for a bit, then asked in a low voice: "What do you think?"
Gu Qing Shan replied: "These people's eyes are a bit panicked, but they're trying their best to look calm"
"They're paying well" Liao Xing commented.
"They're hiring a lot of people" Gu Qing Shan commented.
"The one on the left has a gun" Liao Xing said.
"They're shouting so loudly that they're breaking the order of this place, but the people who maintain order don't dare to provoke them" Gu Qing Shan commented.
"Although they're wearing casual clothes, their actions are very well-behaved" Liao Xing commented.
"Quite a few people are fighting to be hired" Gu Qing Shan looked around and commented.
The two of them exchanged glances.
Liao Xing slowly walked forward, adjusted his breathing a bit, then exerted his strength to push the people around him away, shouting in front of the table: "Me! Me! Me! "
"What can you do?" one of the people standing at the table asked.
"Drive!" Liao Xing replied.
Quite a few people around also shouted: "I'm also a driver, I can also drive!"
"I can also repair cars!" Liao Xing glared at the person behind him.
"Ah?" the person's eyes lit up and asked: "What can you repair?"
"I can repair any kind of car on the market" Liao Xing patted his chest and said.
As soon as he said that, the people behind him stopped.
— — -not only is he an experienced driver, but he's also a mechanic, there really aren't many people like that.
"You really can?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"I can even invent warp devices, let alone a simple old car?" Liao Xing casually replied.
The person evaluated him for a bit, then said: "I'll take you to the back — — -we just happened to have a car that had a small problem, go take a look, if you can fix it, he'll pass"
Liao Xing was taken outside the venue.
"That's the one." The man pointed at a big truck.
"What's wrong with it?" Liao Xing asked.
"It's driving for a long time, but it keeps giving out error codes" the person said.
"Such a small problem, no one can fix it?"
Liao Xing smiled and put his hand out: "Give me the keys"
The man saw that he had a well-thought-out plan, so he handed him the key.
Liao Xing got on the car — —
Gu Qing Shan suddenly said: "The organic horde is coming, they'll reach the city in about 3 minutes"
Liao Xing's eyebrows twitched.
He originally wanted to borrow the situation to survive, but it seems like it's already too late.
He started the car. Sure enough, the car's alarm started to sound.
A series of error codes appeared on the car's screen.
— — -prepare to open a path!
Liao Xing told the person below: "I'll take a few steps"
The person was a bit worried and said: "I'll also get in"
Liao Xing was about to step on the gas pedal — —
Gu Qing Shan casually said: "They have guns"
Liao Xing stopped and glanced at the gun on the other party's waist.
— — -there's less than 3 minutes left.
That damned insect will definitely let the bomb fall on his head.
"Get in the car first" Liao Xing said.
Saying so, he jumped off the car and kicked the gas tank a few times.
In a flash, the error codes disappeared.
"What's going on?" the person was surprised.
"The oil pressure is faulty, you guys hit the brakes too hard, that's easy to cause, but I'm only treating the symptoms and not the root of the problem, if there's a problem next time, we'll have to replace the parts" Liao Xing said.
"That's right, we were lacking parts, that's why we couldn't fix this car" the person gave him a thumbs up.
Liao Xing patted the steering wheel: "I've always been a mechanic since I was young, even if you give me an ancient land tank, I'll still fix it for you"
"You're hired" the person announced.
Suddenly, a ringtone came from his chest pocket.
He took out a rectangular communicator and connected the call.
A hurried voice came from the other side of the phone:
"Attention, the bombing is coming, the enemy has also launched a bio-chemical attack, zombies have appeared!"
The person's expression changed.
Gu Qing Shan and Liao Xing were both confused.
— — zombies?
What kind of thing would be called a zombie?
The person hung up and told Liao Xing: "Let's go, to the bomb shelter!"
"Which direction?" Liao Xing asked.
"Southwest — — take the 3rd Ring Road"
"Yes!"
