Me and countless me.

Chapter 458 Newcomer Welcome Ceremony
Zhao Yingkong unceremoniously activated the first-order gene lock and rushed towards Li Ke's side, because she was very sure that she could not fight Li Ke head-on. She could only rely on her flexible body to force Li Ke to move and find Li Ke's flaws!
However, in Li Ke's eyes, this was just as reckless as all the previous actions. He even forgot out of anger and panic that he had relied on his speed to defeat her. Zhao Yingkong's memory of being an assassin was simply an insult to the word "assassin".

But this kind of behavior of getting angry at the slightest thing and having no memory at all is indeed just like a cat.

Therefore, Li Ke plans to call this form of Zhao Yingkong Hakiying!
So Li Ke appeared behind Hajiying again, grabbed the clothes at the back of her neck, and exerted force in his hand violently. Hajiying's whole body felt like it was electrocuted again, and she lost all her strength directly.

But to outsiders, it looked like Li Ke was grabbing the scruff of the neck and lifting him up, exactly like a cat being grabbed the scruff of the neck and lifted up by someone, even the shocked expression on his face was the same!

"You are such an impolite little girl... But you are too anxious. Have you forgotten how I treated you before?"

After shaking the other person's body again and making sure that there were no lethal weapons on the other person's body, Li Ke looked at Haki Sakura's face and pinched the other person's face with his other hand.

"Stop yelling and killing people like a psychopath, okay? You look like you came home from school and found out that your beloved brother had killed your whole family, even your parents and playmates. Then when you asked him why he did that, he told you that he was testing his own temper and that you didn't deserve to be killed."

Li Ke made precise comments and came to two conclusions while pinching Zhao Ying's empty face.

First, this girl has really good skin.

Second, according to Dr. Li’s perception, this girl is really mentally ill, and has very serious multiple personalities. Moreover, the main personality is dysfunctional, and the secondary personality cannot mobilize the full power of its own soul, resulting in a disabled state on both sides:
The main personality is congenitally incomplete, unable to act, unable to think normally, and easily falls into extremes. Because of the existence of the secondary personality, he falls into autism and repression, causing the problem to become more and more serious and his personality to become more and more extreme.

Although the secondary personality can act, think, and even exist independently, it is suppressed by the soul of the main personality, so both its personality and the abilities it can exert are affected. And because it is a secondary personality, not only is her memory incomplete, but she is also affected by the emotions of the main personality, making her extremely sensitive and fragile. The slightest disturbance can make her mentally run away and turn into Haki Sakura and breathe wildly.

In short, the souls of these two people depend on each other and hurt each other, and——

They are each other's inner demons!

However, the girl in his arms obviously felt that she did not have any disease. When Li Ke let go of her again, she rushed towards Li Ke like crazy again, and this time it was not because of Li Ke's previous actions, but because of Li Ke's words.

"What do you know? Do you know Zhao Chukong? Tell me, where is he?"

Zhao Yingkong's eyes were almost red. Although what Li Ke said was very different from her experience, it was basically the same. She did have a brother who killed her entire family and all her friends, and then said that it was to test his own strength, and said that he did not deserve to be killed!
At this moment, Zhao Yingkong no longer cared about his own condition, and even used a life-threatening fighting style. But just like before, Li Ke stretched out his hand, grabbed, and lifted him up, and Zhao Yingkong was once again shaken in Li Ke's hand like a kitten grabbed by the scruff of the neck.

And the saddest thing was that when she was lifted up, her feet couldn't even reach Li Ke's knees!

"I'm talking about Uchiha Sasuke, okay? Haven't you seen Naruto? As for Zhao Chukong you mentioned, I've never seen him, but if your experience is very similar to Uchiha Sasuke's, then I think you should also be eager for power. Use your brain and think about why you are here and how much stronger I am than you. Okay, Brother Jie, introduce the situation here to them."

Li Ke easily threw Zhao Yingkong aside. At this moment, most of the newcomers were awake, and he didn't have time to make trouble with Zhao Yingkong, so Li Ke nodded to Zhang Jie on the side, signaling him to explain the situation here to the newcomers.

He did not have any strong resentment towards Zhang Jie. After all, Zhang Jie's situation was not hopeless. As long as he practiced the magnetic field rotation internal energy he gave him, he would have the opportunity to unlock the fourth-order gene lock and master the light of the mind. At that time, he would naturally be able to survive.

After all, in the eyes of the Lord God, only those who have mastered the light of the soul are considered human beings and have human rights.

Zhao Yingkong looked at Li Ke and gritted her teeth unwillingly, but ultimately she did not attack again. The experience of being easily caught three times in a row finally made her mind clearer. She just quickly grabbed her bandages and weapons, hid behind the crowd and began to reload.

Only then did Li Ke have time to look at the watch on his wrist. Then he raised his eyes suddenly and felt a toothache.

Mission: The fog will fall in 3 days. After the fog falls, you must survive in the foggy town for 7 days and must not leave the town within 1000 meters. You will be rewarded with bonus points.

Killing a small fog monster will reward you 1 point, killing a medium fog monster will reward you 100 points, and killing a large fog monster will reward you a D-level side story, 500 points.

For each giant fog monster killed, 2000 bonus points and a C-level plot will be awarded.

For each Titan-level fog monster killed, 5000 bonus points and a B-level side story will be awarded.

After reading the mission, Li Ke looked around and did not see any fog, but a road sign on the side of the road showed that this was a town called Derry in Maine. However, this hint alone was enough for Li Ke to know what movie this was.

"The Mist? And Derry Town, is this Stephen King's horror universe?"

Although many people say this is a Cthulhu movie, Li Ke remembers very clearly that this thing is not Cthulhu, but an adaptation of Stephen King's novel.

There are also adaptations of Stephen King's other novels, such as The Shawshank Redemption and IT.

And if he remembered correctly...

Looking at the name of the town on the signboard, Li Ke's mouth twitched.

The town of Derry is where the story of IT takes place!
"If the fog is placed here, doesn't that mean there is a possibility that the storyline of IT is accidentally triggered? If you think about it this way, there might also be The Thing, a monster that can eat people, get the memories and appearance of the people they eat, and then wait for an opportunity to eat more people and continue to reproduce."

Li Ke didn't think about the dark universe, ultimate fear and other things in Stephen King's world. After all, this was infinite horror, not the original world where the Lord God could do whatever he wanted.

In other words, if the Lord God is willing, it would be normal for him to create a monster that can eat the reincarnationist and inherit the reincarnationist's memory and abilities to fight them.

So Li Ke turned on the projector on his portable terminal and started projecting the movie in the air. After all, saving the characters in the original novel should also be able to gain some side plots.

He didn't think much of these reward points. After all, the monsters gave more generous rewards. Moreover, the reward points and side plots triggered by his strength were definitely not as many as those triggered by newcomers. Moreover, he only needed some heavy firepower firearms to succeed. Therefore, these not very difficult side plots were most suitable for newcomers who were worthy of joining the Zhongzhou team.

As for him, Zheng Zha, and Zhan Lan, they just had to go up and fight the monsters. These two people desperately needed combat experience and to demonstrate the power of their cultivation. Reward points and the like were secondary.

Just when he had formed a general idea in his mind, Zhang Jie had already finished his science education for the newcomers and received the reward points for their explanations.

"Thanks, everyone. If I can earn a little more, I can go back soon."

Zhang Jie had no words to complain about, he was the one who needed reward points the least. The more he earned, the more troublesome he seemed as an 'unenhanced' guy. After all, the difficulty of becoming the Lord God was determined according to the rewards received. He only ate and did not work, so he would naturally be disliked.

But what could he say?

So I could only smile bitterly.

However, even though they were threatened by Zhang Jie with a gun, Li Ke and the others still saw the diversity of human beings. Not to mention the gangsters, who were not trustworthy at all, a leader-like person even united the other newcomers and said they would not cheat them of their money.

But the most outstanding one is the one depicting dragons and phoenixes.

"So you don't plan to imprison us, and it all depends on whether we want to join you? Damn it, are you kidding me? Do you believe me, I can beat you into two small pancakes with one punch?"

The burly man with dragons and phoenixes painted on his arms and a pointed head spat, looked around, and then sneered.

"But what do you think you are? You should be the staff of those prank shows set up by foreigners, right? Maybe you are the Japanese, a bunch of fake foreigners, ugh!"

Although he spoke with righteousness, his eyes never left the girls in the crowd, causing Zhan Lan to show the gun in his hand, making him quickly turn his eyes away.

But he still pretended to be domineering and turned away without hesitation.

"Okay, I won't waste my time talking to you guys anymore. I still have things to do!"

He wanted to leave after he finished speaking, but Zheng Zha stopped him.

"Wait a minute, this is the support we provide to newcomers. If you change your mind later, you can consider rejoining the team. Others can also take the boxes and leave, and rejoin the team after changing their minds. We will also try our best to provide protection and intelligence support." Zheng Zha took out several boxes from the space ring and opened one of them. Inside were US dollars obtained from the world of Resident Evil, pistols and bulletproof vests, as well as some temporary documents and a mobile phone equipped with translation software.

This is the suit that Li Ke prepared for newcomers. Although it is not strong enough, it is enough for qualified newcomers to survive the first horror movie.

After all, they cannot force people who have their own ideas to act. Li Ke will save the people around him, but that does not mean he will save giant babies and fools and giant babies who have no idea how to repay their gratitude.

"Ha! Then I won't be polite!"

The sturdy man reached out to pull out the gun at the first moment, but Zheng Zha also raised the gun and pointed it at him to prevent the other party from threatening his teammates after getting the gun. After all, they had encountered such things many times in the Middle East and Africa. Although he was still kind, he was no longer naive.

Even, he made his own decision very skillfully.

"You take it last. Others who want to leave can only take one every ten minutes. After taking it, leave immediately!"

When he said this, Li Ke saw the man with glasses who didn't look like a normal person pushed his glasses but said nothing.

The Russian and the killer who looked very artistic, hipster and gay nodded slightly, because this was the only way to ensure the safety of those who left.

It was at this time that the main god's barrier disappeared. The gangsters and the others quickly took away the supplies according to the rules Zheng Zha had said, and left their surroundings without any reluctance. In the end, only the man with glasses, Zhao Yingkong, the Russian, and the girl who gave Li Ke a strange feeling were left.

After the burly man who painted dragons and phoenixes left, the man with glasses came directly to Li Ke and spoke in an emotionless voice.

"I think you are the leader of this team, right? My name is Chu Xuan, a senior colonel at Longyin Base. I am proficient in various special operations and scientific research, and I am also very good at commanding battles and analyzing situations. May I ask if I am qualified to join your team?"

Li Ke raised his eyebrows, but was not surprised that the other party, Chu Xuan, who was known as the wisest man in Infinite Terror, appeared here. After all, in the original work, the other party joined later.

But just when he was about to smile and agree to the other party's joining, Zheng Zha suddenly frowned.

Because he felt that this pretty boy with glasses had bad intentions! So, when Li Ke was extremely surprised, Zheng Zha spoke angrily.

"From the moment he spoke, he was putting pressure on Brother Li, showing off his own ability and status. He wanted to use the status given by the country to suppress Brother Li, make himself look powerful, and directly enter the decision-making level... Do you think your wisdom is better than Brother Li?!"

Zheng Zha's eyes flashed with lightning, but Chu Xuan didn't show any surprise. He just glanced at Zheng Zha and then spoke calmly again.

"This is also part of my ability to show off my abilities. After all, useless people cannot survive in this society. As a newcomer, I came to the world of Stephen King's The Mist, or even other horror stories. It is very dangerous in itself. Naturally, I have to show my abilities as much as possible and try to find information that the seniors missed in exchange for a certain amount of protection. This is a very normal thing, and it is also a decision that a normal person would make, isn't it?"

He once again calmly demonstrated his knowledge and analytical skills, but to his surprise, as the leader of the team, Li Ke was still calm and even looked like he wanted to laugh.

"This somewhat lascivious man knows me? But why is he not among the people I know? And he is very concerned about the assassin of the Zhao family. Is he a foreign force or some hidden ancient sect?"

Chu Xuan was a little confused, but there was still no expression on his face. He was just thinking frantically about things related to Li Ke.

Zheng Zha didn't say anything else, but looked at Li Ke. Li Ke nodded and chose to accept Chu Xuan.

Zheng Zha then opened the space ring again and revealed several other boxes.

Among them are the beggar's version of power armor, equipped with smart chips, heavy firepower weapons that cannot fire at them, and personal terminals.

The moment these equipment came out, Li Ke saw that the Russian man and the cold gay guy's eyes lit up, and Chu Xuan walked forward excitedly, touched the equipment, and couldn't help but analyze it.

"It's incredible, this material actually exists! And there are runes on it, right? It's genius, mixing two different energy transmission systems together, and making them perfectly compatible... And the computing power of this chip is incredible! Just with this size and energy consumption, it can match the computing power of a supercomputer! No! The output of this armor is comparable to that of a heavy truck? How is this done?! Is it runes? It must be the power of runes, right?!"

He immediately fell into a state of frenzy, because the technological content here was at least a hundred years ahead of the outside world!
Li Ke directly welcomed the remaining newcomers.

"The Zhongzhou team welcomes anyone who is capable and willing to work together. However, if you want to become our official member, you still have to wait until you finish this horror movie. These equipment can effectively help you survive this horror movie. Okay, now you can introduce yourselves."

The Russian smiled immediately.

"I'm Russian, codenamed Overlord. I used to be a soldier, mainly a firepower person. I will do my best to be a member of this team!"

He felt that Li Ke's team was very reliable and was suitable to be teammates in this strange place, so he joined without hesitation.

The cool and cold gay guy also came over and looked at the weapons open to them, especially the guns, with a smile on his face.

Because he, like Overlord, could tell that these weapons were real! So he also made up his mind.

"My name is Zero Point, Sniper, from Chengdu, and I used to be a priest. I will try my best to become one of you."

In the end, only Zhao Yingkong and the girl with white eyes were left. Zhao Yingkong snorted coldly, without even looking at the equipment. He put his hands in his pockets, like Sasuke when the weather cleared, and spoke coolly.

"I'm Zhao Yingkong, a killer."

But Li Ke could clearly see that in order to make himself sound more oppressive when he said the word "killer", Zhao Yingkong forcibly suppressed the aftereffects of the gene lock that caused pain all over the body, pretending that nothing had happened. He also subconsciously stood on tiptoe, bent over, unlocked the Spinosaurus form, and tried to learn the posture of Iori Yagami to increase his sense of oppression.

So Li Ke couldn't help it.

"Pfft, hahahaha burp."

He laughed, and although Zhao Yingkong didn't know why Li Ke laughed, Li Ke's look made her blush again. The strange looks from the people around her made Zhao Yingkong completely furious.

"I'll fight you!"

She pounced on him again, but this time she had no ability to force open the genetic lock. Instead, she could no longer suppress the collapse of the genetic lock and began to tremble all over.

Li Ke grabbed her, subdued her again, and stuffed her into Zhan Lan's arms. He first rubbed her short hair frantically, then grabbed Zhan Lan's front armor, suppressed the head of the Haki Sakura Spinosaurus form, blocked her vision, and then grabbed the hand of the quiet Zhao Yingkong, while controlling her, he treated her for the sequelae of the gene lock.

He was indeed a bit lenient. After all, this girl was probably not even in high school in terms of her mental age. To Li Ke, it felt like playing with a silly child, and he didn't even have to buy melon seeds.

Moreover, there was no murderous intent in his previous attacks. It was obvious that his purpose was to hold him hostage, not to kill.

So after dealing with her, Li Ke looked at the last mysterious girl.

"What about you? Girl, what's your reason for staying? After all, I see that no one else believes us."

The girl with strange eyes took a deep breath and spoke with some fear.

"My name is Zhu Wen, I'm an ordinary person... As for why I stayed, it's because..."

A look of fear appeared on her face, and she calmed herself down before speaking.

"I see a lot of skulls formed by death, smiling at everyone except you four!"
