The system is four years ahead of schedule, but Weird is still a cub.

Li Xiang's words undoubtedly hit the nail on the head. If the Monster Organization could so easily manipulate an important person in the Special Initiative Department by controlling consciousness, then whether they chose Deng Yuqi or Liu Jiayi who had access to more confidential information, or used them to "assassinate" important officials, it would be much better than choosing him who was only involved in research.

Unless... the other party's purpose is to steal some important research data from the research department, or he is directly targeting Li Xiang.

The former is unlikely, because it can be seen from the surveillance footage that after the other party controlled Li Xiang, they did not retrieve any confidential research information, but just casually flipped through the reports on his desk, more like to see what he was doing recently and confirm the next direction of action.

Therefore, the latter is more likely.

But what is the purpose of controlling Li Xiang? Just for the "Weird Sample Data" sent by Shen Ge?
If so, how did the other party know that Cheng Shengnan would receive this message yesterday afternoon and chose such a precise time?
So was it Shen Ge who was being monitored, or was it someone on their side who was being monitored?
Deng Yuqi felt that this was a question that must be investigated as soon as possible, because it would determine whether the abilities of the Monster Organization were really as "terrible" as imagined.

At least for now, neither Deng Yuqi nor Li Xiang and others believe that the Monster Organization has such powerful capabilities to completely manipulate the Special Initiative Department in their hands.

You have to know that this is not the Special Strategy Department that had to borrow and use the strange equipment two years ago, but the largest and strongest anti-strange department of the Great Celestial Empire! If even the Special Strategy Department is lost, it means that the whole world has fallen into the hands of the monster organization.

Obviously, this is not possible.

Deng Yuqi rubbed his forehead with a headache. At present, there are many doubts in this matter, and it is weird and unreasonable everywhere.

Since she couldn't figure it out for a while, she simply stopped thinking about it. As for whether Li Xiang should go to Dajing to participate in the Asian Anti-Ghost Research Conference, this is still under discussion.

However, what Li Xiang said was very correct. The person behind the scenes chose the time so precisely, most likely intentionally to alert the Special Initiatives Department and keep Li Xiang in the department to facilitate their behind-the-scenes plans.

Although Shen Ge is out of contact at the moment, he should be able to show up before the Asian Anti-Ghost Research Association, so it would be safer to bring Li Xiang over.

Even if something went wrong with Shen Ge, Li Xiang had Deng Yuqi and two captain-level anti-terrorism agents by his side, so it wouldn't necessarily be more dangerous than staying in Dajing.

After much deliberation, Deng Yuqi finally nodded and agreed to Li Xiang's plan.

In the next few days, the Rong City branch was under full martial law. In addition to the "key focus" Li Xiang who was under 24-hour protection, Deng Yuqi asked Yang Yuxin to protect Cheng Shengnan for safety reasons. After all, someone was fighting on the front line against the evil. If he found that his home was robbed, the Special Policy Department would be really embarrassed.

A few days later, the day before the Asian Anti-Weird Research Conference, Deng Yuqi arranged a special plane to go to Dajing. In addition to her and Li Xiang, the Rong City branch also sent two team leaders, Tu Doubi and Yang Yuxin, as well as four deputy team leaders, Wang Han, Ma Chao, Zhang Hu, and Zhao Long, Cheng Shengnan and Xiao Zhang from the logistics department, and a whole combat team.

Cheng Shengnan was not originally on the list, but as the director of the logistics department, many things in the Rong City branch had to go through her hands, and there was also a lot of work that needed to be coordinated at the headquarters. It would be a bit unreasonable to keep her in Rong City for protection just because of Shen Ge's relationship.

Besides, there has been no news from Shen Ge for several days. Although Cheng Shengnan did not want to go to Dajing to cause trouble for Shen Ge, he was worried about Shen Ge.

Moreover, as Li Xiang said, a few days ago, a suspected weird organization suddenly took action, intending to "stir up trouble", and it was obvious that they wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to make trouble for the Asian Anti-Weird Research Association. Rather than staying in Rong City, it would be relatively safer to be in Dajing with Shen Ge there.

In order to ensure Cheng Shengnan's safety, Deng Yuqi also arranged a "bodyguard" with a very special identity for her to ensure that nothing goes wrong.

If this lineup can't protect Cheng Shengnan, then it would be even more dangerous to keep her in Rong City.

On the plane, Cheng Shengnan sat next to Deng Yuqi. After she sat down, Deng Yuqi turned her head and asked, "Has Shen Ge contacted you in the past few days?"

Cheng Shengnan frowned and shook his head: "No, I sent a few messages, but it said that they were unsuccessful. I guess he is in the strange space, or... that world."

The "that world" that Cheng Shengnan referred to was naturally the dream world, but not many people knew about this news. Including her and Cheng Shengnan, the number of people who knew about it in the entire Rong City branch was less than the number they could count on two hands.

Deng Yuqi nodded. She had tried to contact Shen Ge in the past few days, but when she didn't get a reply, she wondered if he was trapped in a dream world.

Because for Shen Ge, investigating the dream world has become his most concerned thing. In addition to the fact that this magical space has some strange connection with the strange space, the most important thing is that the dream world and Shen Ge's "life experience" are inextricably linked.

After these dream journeys, Shen Ge discovered that his "life trajectory" seemed to be controlled by an invisible hand. However, Deng Yuqi and Cheng Shengnan did not know that he had obtained the strange eyes and saw the truth of "1/2 world", and they thought he took the initiative to enter the dream world to investigate.

However, the reason why Shen Ge was trapped in the dream world for several days was because he was actively investigating something.

When facing two level 6 monsters, Shen Ge took a different approach. While the level 6 monster was attracting firepower for him, he tried to enter deep into the level 6 monster's body to find its heart. When the level 6 monster was about to be tortured to death, he immediately destroyed the monster's heart. In this way, he could at least guarantee that he would get a level 6 reward in the end.

However, as Shen Ge went deeper into the 6th-level strange body, he discovered that this place was like a huge "monster breeding nest". Everywhere he could see jars of meat for hatching monsters, parasitic strange breeding eggs, and all kinds of monster-related things.

This place is like the specimen room of the director of Rongshan Mental Hospital magnified a hundred times, full of insects that can turn people into monsters.

Thinking back to the large number of worms that gushed out of the walls of the weird stomach and the 4th-order monsters in the corridor, he always felt that there was something wrong with this 6th-order weird. It seemed that the purpose of the existence of this 6th-order weird was to use it to "feed" these things in the stomach.

At this moment, he was standing in front of the door of a huge "heart room".

In fact, as a "frequent visitor" in the strange belly, Shen Ge has seen this kind of heart-like door more than once, but this time is different, because this is the seventh "heart" he has found.

"Is this ever going to happen? Brother, are you an octopus monster? You can even grow several hearts?" Shen Ge looked at the heart room in front of him, feeling helpless.

It was a sixth-level weirdness. The huge maze inside his body was played out to give him an eighth-level weirdness, making him lost in the weird stomach for several days.

Of course, it is difficult to judge the time since one cannot feel the change of day and night in the strange belly, but Shen Ge has a super AI on him, so timing is naturally not difficult for Xiao Qi.

"Master, this door is similar to the previous strange energy fluctuations. No strange energy fluctuations have been detected around it for the time being. I'm afraid it's similar to the previous situation."

"By the way, Master, you haven't had a rest for seventy-seven hours."

"I suggest you find a place to rest for a while. I will control the Red Mist Armor to buy you some rest time." Shen Ge refused and said, "I'm not sleepy yet. I don't need to rest for the time being. Don't forget, since the dream world appeared, it is no longer up to me to decide whether I feel sleepy or not. Try to find a way to leave while you are still awake. If you feel sleepy again, it won't be too late for you to deal with it then."

"Understood, Master." Xiao Qi replied.

In fact, Shen Ge was also helpless. He did not expect that his plan B of "sitting on the mountain and watching the fight between tigers" would turn the fight between two tigers into a test of patience between two turtles. The originally exciting battle between monsters and weirdness did not appear, but instead became a war of attrition between weird powers.

This reminded Shen Ge of the battle between the two level 8 monsters on Sakura Island. It was so terrifying and exciting that it even sank Sakura Island.

On the other hand, these two are, ugh, garbage.

"I'll ask the research department to work overtime to research the weird energy nuclear bomb... Directly destroying it with a nuclear bomb, uh, doesn't seem to work. Monsters above level 6 can even feed on nuclear energy. Oh, it's really difficult to deal with." Shen Ge complained as he took out the weird energy rocket launcher and began to skillfully blast the door open.

The hatred transfer of the ghost-killing revolver and the explosion of the ghost energy rocket successfully blew open the heart door, and the flames illuminated the space inside and outside.

"Gulu."

"Gulu."

Before Shen Ge could make the next reaction, the surroundings began to shake violently, and then the building that was fused with the strange internal organs began to collapse.

Fortunately, Shen Ge was well prepared. When the wriggling flesh on both sides of the walls gathered together to form a bloody mouth biting towards him, he used "collapse" to go to the next level.

"Master, according to previous estimates, this building is expected to have between 30 and 40 floors. We should be halfway there now." Xiao Qi said.

"Oh, it's been several days, and we're only halfway down?" Shen Ge was speechless. Although he wanted to rely on the effect of "collapse" to go all the way down, the deeper he went, the stronger the strange energy defense would be. If he fought head-on, he would have to at least exhaust his strange energy before he could use "collapse" to clear a path.

It would be fine if the bottom layer was the lowest one, but there were more than a dozen layers below. It was impossible for Shen Ge to break through one layer and then spend time recovering his strange energy, so breaking through from the "heart chamber" became the best choice.

But this time, an accident happened!
After Shen Ge "collapsed" through the squirming floor, he did not reach the next floor in a few seconds or even ten seconds like before. Instead, he fell vertically for nearly two minutes, but still showed no sign of reaching the bottom.

"Master, the strength of the strange energy around us is increasing. Please be prepared for battle!" While Shen Ge was falling, Xiao Qi constantly checked the surrounding situation and made timely reports.

Shen Ge began to murmur in his heart. The complexity of the interior of this level 6 monster was beyond his imagination. It should be the monster with the most complex abdominal structure he had ever encountered.

This is only level 6, this is too unbelievable!

But at this time, Shen Ge did not have the time to pay attention to whether this monster had falsely reported its rating. After all, it was somewhat uncertain as it kept falling to the bottom. The most important thing was, if it reached the bottom, with such a "depth", would he still have a chance to climb up the same way?
five minutes.

ten minutes.

Just when Shen Ge was thinking about how to change the situation, there was a sudden "pop" sound. After falling for more than ten minutes, he finally reached the bottom. However, when his feet landed, there was a sound of stepping on sticky substance, which made him feel familiar.

"Overlapping space?" Shen Ge suddenly thought of a possibility, and only this possibility could explain why the strange belly of the Level 6 creature was so exaggeratedly large.

There is also overlapping space in the dream world. Shen Ge had encountered it before. It was a world that was equivalent to a fusion of several different "endings".

In this situation, when the world collapses, there will be many "fragments". Shen Ge didn't know how to deal with these fragments before, but now that he has experience, the more the better.

"Tsk, I wonder if I can use 'materialization' to condense a large net and directly catch ten or eight of his dream fragments!"

The dream fragments affect the scope of the strange domain. The more dream fragments Shen Ge has, the wider the strange domain will be. Maybe when he collects enough dream fragments, he can directly control a world of "ending".

"Master, I think you'd better consider the current situation first." Xiao Qi stretched out several tentacles and rolled up a flashlight to sweep around.

The surroundings were blood red, the floor and walls were wriggling, and the invisible ceiling was disgusting.

It's possible to barely make out that the layout here should be like a huge underground parking lot, but both the pillars and walls are covered with a layer of red, wriggling rotten flesh.

There was blood-red sticky substance flowing on the ground. Shen Ge was stepping on it wearing the red mist armor. The sticky substance was constantly absorbing the strange energy of the red mist armor.

"Master, the consumption rate of strange energy is increasing, and strong strange energy fluctuations are detected around." Classmate Xiao Qi reminded.

Shen Ge also noticed that there was movement in the distance, and the strange sound became more and more obvious, and was getting closer and closer to him.

puff!
puff!
At this moment, with a sound like a blood bubble exploding, the sticky substance on the ground slowly gathered together to form a huge blood bubble. When the blood bubble exploded, a bloody humanoid monster walked out of it.

One, two, ten, a hundred...

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of strange creatures like "blood men" stood up densely on the surrounding open space and were slowly walking towards Shen Ge.

Shen Ge was not at all panicked when facing the encirclement of monsters. He didn't even plan to fight with them. At least he didn't want to waste his weird energy before he figured out the situation.

So, with the three standard characteristics of "invisible + silent + traceless" activated, Shen Ge swaggered through the monster pile and walked into the depths of the blood-red world. (End of this chapter)
