I am immortal with scientific thinking

"Captain, there is nothing wrong with this room."

When Lin Chen and the others returned home, the three special forces members had already checked into the hotel.

After a careful inspection, the attacker came to this conclusion.

The captain nodded solemnly.

The three of them did not live separately, but stayed in one big room. After all, Lin Chen had only told them about so many weird and unreasonable phenomena before, it was impossible for them to be stupid enough to live separately like in horror movies.

However, even though they lived together, the fear in their hearts did not diminish in the slightest.

After all, the disaster involved a city and millions of people, and it happened silently under the noses of the headquarters and Tianhai city top leaders, which is enough to illustrate the horror contained therein.

The captain now felt like he was food caught in a spider web. The real taboos began to surface as they entered the city...

The captain shook his head at this moment, driving the fear deep in his heart out of his mind. He was a soldier, and obeying orders was his duty. For the country and the people behind him, no matter how terrible the disaster was, they had to stand in the front.

Leaving aside the two top students who commanded this operation, Lin Chen and the other man, who would be treated as treasures no matter where they were, both led the way into this dangerous city. As soldiers, how could they retreat?
With this thought in mind, he pushed all unnecessary thoughts out of his mind and looked at the blasting expert beside him:
"How's the situation?"

Since checking into the hotel, they have contacted local garrison and law enforcement agencies through various means, hoping to find out what exactly happened there.

"It still doesn't work. We still can't contact the city's law enforcement agencies and garrison forces. They are completely out of contact!" The blasting expert looked very unhappy. He held the satellite phone tightly in his hand and said, "I can't get through a single call. There are tens of thousands of people here, but they can't even get through a single channel to contact the outside world. Could it be that they are all dead?!"

"Has the problem deteriorated to this extent?!" The captain's face suddenly turned ugly at this moment.

The loss of contact between the military and law enforcement agencies, what does this symbolize? The answer is self-evident.

"In that case, we can only..."

After realizing that something was wrong, the captain did not continue to call the law enforcement and garrison numbers, but instead dialed another number.

"Hello, this is the Yuncang City Food Safety Inspection Team. Please state your identity and the reason for calling."

Soon, the phone was connected and a man's clear and loud voice came through.

This is the external identity disguise of the Supernatural Research Branch's Liaison Group in Yuncang City. After all, it is impossible for the Liaison Group to report their true identity clearly as soon as an unknown phone call comes in.

This sounds like everything is normal.

However, the moment he heard the male voice, the captain couldn't help but frowned. He did not reveal his true identity, but lied:
"I am the director in charge of the Yuncang City Supernatural Research Institute branch. My number is as follows..."

"Confirm your identity now." After saying a string of numbers, the captain asked the other party back.

"I am the contact person of the Yuncang City Supernatural Research Institute branch. I have confirmed your identity. May I ask..."

Without waiting for the other party to finish speaking, the captain hung up the phone.

"Damn it, they're all wiped out..."

At this moment, the captain only felt his body trembling slightly.

The identity information he just gave was full of errors and omissions.

He lied that he was the director of the supernatural research department of this city branch, and that the number was also made up by him at random, just to confirm whether the other party was normal.

But the other party was a staff member of a branch of the Supernatural Research Institute. Not only did he not even recognize his own director, he did not even suspect an inexplicable unknown number.

He even read out a false identity and a made-up number, but the other party not only did not question it, but directly acknowledged his identity and even began to answer his questions honestly.

This can't be said to be a work error.

If there were such an idiot, he would have been kicked out long ago.

Since this situation has occurred, it can only mean one thing, that there is a thing, not sure whether it is a human or a ghost, that has invaded all the local garrison forces and replaced their identities, maintaining uninterrupted communication with the outside world for the city, so that the outside world has not noticed any major abnormalities.

But if this happens, it means that the local military garrison, public security law enforcement department, and supernatural research institute branch responsible for protecting the entire city, which is as high as tens of thousands of people, involving a huge team of nearly 100,000 people, has already...

The whole army was destroyed!!!

Even the guarding forces have been completely destroyed, so what about the city they were protecting...

At this moment, the captain suddenly turned his head and looked through the window at the lights of thousands of homes outside.

The prosperous city not only did not give him any peace of mind, but instead made him feel a chill that penetrated deep into his bones.

You know, when they entered the city, they saw many indigenous people walking on the streets.

If they die, the ones who take their place walking the streets are…

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

suddenly.

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

The faces of the three special forces members in the room suddenly changed, and they activated the nano armor and exoskeleton system they were wearing without hesitation, and their bodies were covered in armor emitting a metallic luster.

"Who?!"

The assaulter stepped forward and used the thermal imager on his helmet to scan the surrounding situation.

There seems to be a person outside, but why is the temperature... so low?

"Our boss asked us to deliver a midnight snack to the guests. I hope it suits their taste." A waitress' voice came from outside the door.

The captain weighed the combat power, took out the plasma pistol expressionlessly, nodded, and signaled to let the people in.

The raider opened the door immediately.

A waitress came in with a food delivery cart. She had a slightly stiff smile on her face:
“Please enjoy your meal!”

The three of them stared at the waiter and felt that he was a little strange, but they couldn't put their finger on it. There was an inexplicable sense of disharmony.

"The midnight snacks are here. If you two need anything, please feel free to contact us." The waiter smiled politely, then turned and left.

But before he could even walk out of the room, he was grabbed by the attacker, and an extremely cold voice rang out in the room:
"This is what you're going to treat us to?!"

The plate was opened, and what was inside was not a midnight snack at all, but a brain. It was extremely fresh and bloody, as if it had just been peeled off not long ago!

And judging from its shape, size, and some other features, this is not an animal brain, but a living human brain that was just removed not long ago!

"Damn it, what kind of monster are you?!"

When the commando saw such a cruel scene, anger appeared on his face, and he pointed his plasma pistol at the waitress in front of him without hesitation.

But the latter was not frightened at all, instead he showed a strange smile:
"The brain, isn't it...something we should eat?" "You...!"

The three special forces members felt an inexplicable palpitation at this moment. Before they could react, an attack beyond their imagination pierced into their brains like a sharp cone!
"what!!!"

A shrill scream suddenly rang out in the room. The three special forces members felt as if a sharp steel needle had pierced their brains, which were as fragile as tofu!

Then...

The entire hotel began to tremble violently, and endless flames completely engulfed the place!

……

heat!
So hot!

Lin Chen first felt as if he was exposed to the sun naked on the beach, and then the burning sensation became stronger and stronger, as if his entire body was burning in a raging sea of ​​fire. The burning sensation penetrated into every part of his flesh and blood, every part of his bone marrow.

Am I not resting in my room?

Why do I feel like I'm in a sea of ​​fire?!
Could someone have set the fire? But I fell asleep in my exoskeleton armor, so it would be impossible for me to have such a feeling unless I fell into the lava.

And the most important thing is, why can't I wake up? It feels like something is pressing on me...

Damn it, wake up, wake up!
Give it to me now...

wake up! ! !

Lin Chen's eyes suddenly opened at this moment!

"Damn it, we were ambushed?!"

He suddenly sat up from the bed, his tone filled with an irrepressible murderous intent. It involved life and death, and he had no choice but to kill!
But what Lin Chen didn't expect was that when he sat up and saw the scene clearly, his pupils suddenly shrank.

This... doesn't seem to be the room he fell asleep in.

There were traces of charred black everywhere, gray powder was constantly blowing in from the broken windows, the heat waves in the air were constantly rolling and boiling, distorting the vision in front of the eyes, and there was a burning smell in the air... It looked like a fire that had just swept everything.

Where...is this place?
Lin Chen looked down and saw himself sleeping naked on a burnt floor. Everything around him showed signs of being burned by the fire.

What about exoskeleton armor?

Although he has had the habit of sleeping naked since he was a child, how could he feel at ease when the city discovered such a strange situation when he came in? Therefore, he wore exoskeleton armor even when sleeping.

Given its defensive capabilities, not to mention knife attacks and gunshots, even frontal artillery bombardment would not be enough to break its defense.

But why is the exoskeleton armor gone now, and his life is not in danger, but he appears here naked?

Space transfer? Soul leaving the body? Or...

crunch--

Ok? !

Lin Chen turned his head suddenly and saw the burnt and broken door. It seemed that it was swaying back and forth due to the rolling heat waves, making a strange and harsh noise.

No, that's not right. This is not some other place, but my home...

I took a closer look at the layout of the room. Even though most of it was charred black, the few places that were not affected by the flames looked familiar.

It felt like his room had been in a fire and most of the things in it were burned to ashes.

Where exactly is this place?
Lin Chen couldn't help but feel doubts in his heart, but after hesitating for a moment, he stood up and walked out.

The Sumu family house across the street was also covered in traces of burning, and there was still no sign of anyone...

No, to be precise, the whole building seemed to have been burned by a fire. There was no one anywhere and there were traces of charring everywhere.

Even the distorted images in the air and the rolling heat waves represented the fire that burned everything, and it seemed... that it had never gone away.

But strangely, after waking up, Lin Chen did not feel the slightest bit of heat, as if the scene before him was just an illusion in his half-asleep state.

"……chip."

Lin Chen whispered, trying to awaken the artificial golden finger in his mind to see if he could analyze anything.

But there was no sound, no response. The artificial golden finger that was bound to his true soul memory seemed to have completely lost contact here.

So where exactly is this place?
Swah——

The moment he walked out of the corridor, layers of heat waves rushed towards him like a rolling tide, raising something vague in the sky and blowing towards him.

It was like a thick gray fog, or like a bunch of cold air. In just a blink of an eye, it completely covered him and the surrounding area.

Lin Chen reached out and took a ball of something that fell in front of him, rubbed it gently in his hand, leaving a grayish-white mark on his palm.

This is... ashes.

Ashes formed after the burning of animal carcasses.

Logically speaking, the number should be very small, but now, wherever you look, you can see the gray ashes floating everywhere.

How many animal carcasses would have to be burned to produce so much ashes, and what kind of animals, in such large numbers, could support such burning?
Lin Chen's face had become a little dazed at this moment. He stepped out of the corridor step by step and saw the outside world.

The world outside is not colorful, but black and gray.

The black color is the charred color after the fire, and the gray color is the ashes flying in the sky.

All I saw was the tall buildings and the beautiful city, but now all that is left is ruins.

Endless ruins melted in the rolling heat waves, houses collapsed like wax figures in a fire, hot and thick ashes covered the roads like snow, remaining sparks danced and scattered among the ashes and ruins, and suspicious humanoid things slowly crawled in the hot ashes...

This is a world on fire, an ember world.

It is also a city called Yuncang!

……

In an instant, the world was spinning.

When all the scenes returned to normal, Lin Chen found himself back in the familiar room.

Everything seemed to be no different from before going to bed, as if the city in ashes that I just saw was just an illusion.

At this moment, looking out the window, I can see the eastern Yudu gradually becoming a city of BC in the dim light of the morning sun, and the days are peaceful and tranquil. (End of this chapter)
