Chapter 284

East Island, Coast Plaza.

"Coo, coo, coo~"

Lin Xi sat on the bench, watching the old lady feeding the pigeons not far away. He strolled over leisurely after leaving the Yinchao Building. When he had nothing to do, taking a walk was a very interesting thing to do.

Of course, the most important thing is to meet the person who has been following him openly.

"Mr. Lin, do you feel better after the commotion?" A dark-skinned, mustache-wearing, flat-headed man in black and gray armor slowly walked over from not far away.

The pigeons fluttered away, but the residents and passers-by who were feeding the pigeons in the square seemed to have noticed him completely.

"A guy who hides his head but shows his tail." Lin Xi looked over and felt that the guy looked very familiar. He almost guessed the other party's identity and made a sarcastic remark.

The flat-headed man was not angry. He smiled and said, "I am Ling, a cadre of the Nesting Organization. I want to discuss cooperation with Mr. Lin."

zero?
Clone Zero.

Lin Xi glanced at him and guessed his true identity.

As everyone knows, there are two Zeros in the Nest Organization. One is the real Zero, whose status is second only to the old leader Nestor and the new leader Igniz, and he is responsible for guarding the only way to the Nest base [Fortress]. The other is a fake cloned based on the real Zero. The cloned Zero has a huge gap with the original in terms of status, strength, vision, etc.

The easiest thing to identify is loyalty.

Shin Zero doesn't care about other people's opinions at all, he is just loyal to the organization. In the game, after the protagonists defeated Igniz, he could have escaped but died together with the fortress. Perhaps his heart had already died after the boss exposed his ridiculous second-year idea.

Apart from relying entirely on transformation technology and the powerful strength of his combat suit, Clone Zero is simply a clown. In the game, he gained the trust of the real Zero by showing his loyalty and took control of the Zero Cannon. He then tried to use the Zero Cannon to usurp the throne, and was then seriously injured by the Zero Cannon he had always dreamed of.

If Igniz is a person who plays a good hand badly, he is a person who thinks he is invincible with a bad hand.

A clown whose ambitions are totally mismatched with his abilities.

But it still can't be underestimated.

In terms of strength alone, the opponent is definitely capable of fighting Lin Xi in a one-on-one duel. In the entire Sound Nest combat system, he is second only to the True Zero. Facing the Zero Cannon that can destroy a city with one shot, he was caught off guard and blown up, but he was still alive and well, and then he was shot dead by Whip, the Sarah clone whom he madly mocked.

The main reason is that the combat uniform is too outrageous.

Especially the super-killing move [Bai Luo Mieshen] that can be unleashed even when wearing combat uniform. The setting says that [it uses the power of the black hole it creates to devour everything around it].

In fact, it is the magnetic field that distorts space, which is the same type of power as Lin Xi's, but in terms of expressiveness, it is as strong as Orochi's full-screen super-kill.

Of course, according to the setting, Orochi is the god who controls space, so he can’t get away with just a combat suit.

Technology can be used to manipulate magnetic force at will, making it powerful enough to distort space and cause large-scale damage, with terrifying destructive power.

Based on Lin Xi's observations just now, the magnetic field around Clone Zero was distorted with every move he made, but the magnetic force disappeared without a trace. It was likely that the combat suit could absorb the magnetic force generated by the collision of magnetic fields as energy at any time.

No wonder in the game, in order to recharge the dormant Type-Zero Cannon, a King of Fighters tournament is held, using the [force field] generated by the fighters' battles to awaken the Type-Zero Cannon.

I'm afraid the horrific destructive power of that thing that can destroy a city with just one shot also comes from magnetism.

"What can we cooperate on?" Lin Xi said, feeling a little weird in his heart. It seemed that in the application of magnetic field and magnetic force, Yinchao was still his predecessor.

Whether it's the distortion of space, brainwashing, outer space magnetic weapons, or the now obvious impact on the human spirit, it proves that others are much better at it than him.

There is one thing worth noting. According to Dr. Brown, Nestor clearly knows the truth about Earth's technology, so why is it still tirelessly researching and inventing technologies related to magnetism?

Very strange.

"God's Plan." Clone Zero uttered two words, and then said: "Using a certain original body as a model, create an 'artificial god' and capture the Earth's will serpent."

"Mr. Lin, who do you think this Primarch is?" There was a hint of playfulness in his smile and voice.

Capture the big snake?

When Lin Xi first heard about the God Plan, he thought it was the same as in the game, where Igniz was going to become "God". After hearing the introduction of the plan, he realized that the real goal might be to capture the will of the Earth.

The Great Snake is closely related to the will of the Earth. As long as it is captured, it will be equivalent to opening up a channel connecting to the ocean of Earth's consciousness.

You know, the first time he met the big snake was in the Earth consciousness, where there was a pure blue ocean and endless spiritual power was enough to do anything. His golden finger only needed to pry a drop of water in the ocean to achieve the same effect as a panacea. Human technology should be able to do more and better.

In this way, the God's Plan that Clone Zero mentioned should be just the first half.

As for the original body... "Haha, the Sound Nest has set its sights on me?" Lin Xi determined the other party's target almost without thinking.

Yinchao has mastered extremely advanced magnetic field and magnetic force technology, and he has discovered that he can control magnetism. Magnetism, as one of the basic forces, is an important condition for defeating the snake. If you want to defeat the snake simply by relying on the battle suit...

That's out of the question. The main body is too fragile to withstand the power of the giant snake. A simple soul-stealing attack is completely useless.

If the three sacred artifacts did not have special bloodlines and targeted powers, they would probably have no chance of facing the big snake.

"Mr. Lin holds such a powerful force, just like guarding an extremely precious treasure." Clone Zero stretched out his palm, and the magnetic field gathered and compressed in his gray glove. The airflow gradually turned into wind and was absorbed into it, forming a pitch-black sphere. "Naturally, we have to welcome the prying eyes of coveters."

At this point, the two of them had their showdown.

Lin Xi knew the whole story and the other party's origins, and Clone Zero did not intend to hide the God's plan from the other party, because they both needed the other party's help if they wanted to survive.

"What do you want to cooperate with me on?" Lin Xi asked again, with a change in tone and content.

If someone has the same level of power as you, no matter whether it is an external object or not, you can have an equal conversation with him. There is nothing to be proud of.

Clone Zero restrained his smile, dispersed the condensed sphere in his hand, and said in a low voice: "Igniz, you should have met our young master." He spoke Chinese very well, and even uttered the word "young master".

It’s really vivid.

"Just say it straight." Lin Xi neither admitted nor denied it.

"I hope to join forces with you to capture Igniz." Clone Zero showed an ambitious look on his face, "The enemy of my enemy is my friend. The person who promotes God's Plan is Igniz. Sooner or later you will face him. Let's join forces, even if..." He was vague.

"Even other people in the organization can't stop us. The old leader Nestor has not been in office for many years. As long as we control Igniz, the Sound Nest will be under our control."

"At that time, you and I will share all the spoils. With the magnetic force you control, after the organization's training and technical support, you can not only defeat the snake, but also destroy the planet!"

He became more and more excited as he spoke, as if he had seen a bright future. "When the time comes, you will be——"

"God!"

Lin Xi expressed regret in his heart that he was afraid that the basis for cooperation had been completely broken.

It's true that Igniz is a madman, but he's also an extremely cautious madman. In the game, he can stay in the fortress in outer space for decades. Now it seems that even if something so big happens on Earth, he probably won't come down.

Moreover, an ambitious person who keeps saying that he wants to make others God is willing to have two people in charge...

Do I have to put on a helmet and go fishing with him?
Lin Xi stood up and sighed silently. If the plan to clone Zero was really effective, cooperation would not be a bad idea. To be honest, he was so restrained in blowing up the top two floors of the Nest Building just now because he didn't want to completely break off relations.

He has no confidence at the moment if he really faces the entire Sound Nest. Even if he can in the future, he will use all his energy to deal with the big snake. How can he have time to argue with the Sound Nest?

If Igniz is pushed into a corner, he will directly bombard the earth with the Zero Cannon and create a burning glass ball. How many of the shells can he intercept?

Don't think that an older person with chuunibyou doesn't dare or can't do it. If he hadn't exposed himself at the beginning of the game and staged an "I killed my father" act, he would have directly lost the loyalty of the Nest organization. Without the protection of Shin-Zero, the outcome between the protagonists and Nest would have been really hard to predict.

Clone Zero frowned. He didn't expect that even after saying so much, he still couldn't impress the other party. This made him feel a little uneasy about his plan. Is there something he didn't know?
But now that things have come to this, I can only bite the bullet and ask, "Mr. Lin, what do you think?"

"When you find Igniz's real whereabouts, we'll talk about your plan again." Lin Xi's voice emphasized the word "real", and then walked away, completely ignoring Clone Zero's constantly changing expression.

It's boring. Apart from formally verifying that the high-level combat suit of the Nest Sound has the ability to control the magnetic field, there is nothing gained.

Even the God Plan is not new, and the Sound Nest can't hold back any good words. In the game, they saw the three sacred artifacts seal Orochi and directly capture Kyo Kusanagi. They thought that the bloodline of the three sacred artifacts was awesome, but it turned out that the application of the Kusanagi Fire seemed quite difficult, the qualified bodies were rare, the clones were still weak, and the key was that they couldn't use it on the combat suit.

This caused Yinchao to offend a large group of people and irritate the protagonists. In the end, the only thing they could really show off was the combat suit they developed themselves.

Igniz couldn't think of any normal plan at all. Following the ideas in the game, he was immediately attracted by the powerful fighter with magnetic power. He would never think of cooperating with him. His first choice was to capture and clone him, which was easy to guess.

Lin Xi was mentally prepared when he received the invitation from Igniz. He simply didn't want the Sound Nest to be held back at the critical moment of dealing with the big snake. In addition, his strength growth began to slow down, so it was time to come out and relax, and by the way, find a chance to see if he could get two energy beans for practice.

If he was afraid that Yinchao would catch him, he would never leave Hong Kong Island.

Igniz didn't dare to come down to the ground, the real Zero was guarding the way to the base, and the remaining Sound Nest combat force was nothing more than a clone Zero with ulterior motives, there was nothing to be afraid of.

When Lin Xi came, she still had a lot of messy thoughts in her mind, but when she left, she was actually quite relaxed.

There are no other sound nests beyond what is known and can be speculated, which is a good thing. It is much better than a giant snake that becomes strange and behaves abnormally for unknown reasons.

After he left Coast Plaza, he went to the orphanage to meet Sarah and her brother. He told them that the company might be in trouble and they came to them for help. He also told them not to reveal their identities rashly.

The reason why Joyce was not allowed to contact them directly was to ensure their safety. It is not a good thing to be reckless, as Yinchao is still watching them.

If the Earth's consciousness hadn't gone crazy and put the blame on him for rescuing Sarah and her brother, the two of them would have been captured long ago.

He really didn't have anyone he could entrust in South Town. The Bogard brothers, with whom he had a better relationship, were going to participate in the King of Boxing Tournament. It was a good thing that the Stroheim family had not turned against him now.

However, there was an unexpected surprise on this trip. Hanzo Shiranui woke up two days ago, and now after rehabilitation, his strength has not only returned to its prime, but has also improved slightly. According to him, if he is given a few months to get familiar with his unfamiliar body and develop his pores, he will definitely be stronger than the Bogard brothers.

Lin Xi was skeptical about what he said, but she also handed over all the matters of taking care of the company to him.

Strength is another matter. Hanzo Shiranui is already old, and he is able to get along with everyone. He has been without being killed for twenty or thirty years even though his strength has been damaged and his body has been exhausted. In the game, Krauser waited until Geese died before sending people to kill him, which shows that this guy is definitely a smart guy and will not do anything bad.

Lin Xi spent a day arranging all the matters in Nanzhen, and spent the remaining two days like an ordinary tourist, playing around, seeing things, and experiencing the exotic customs and culture.

In the end he still decided not to take a plane. The risk of crashing was too high. Dealing with the magnetic field problem was too troublesome. The Faraday cage structure could not completely shield all magnetic fields and electromagnetic radiation. The compass would still turn inside. The magnetic field in his hands was as stable as the geomagnetic field. Once it was out of control, it would most likely develop into a magnetic field storm.

Without a Faraday cage, the leakage will not have much impact. At most, it will cause the mobile phone and network signals nearby to be slightly worse. If there is a Faraday cage to isolate it, if it is accidentally released after holding it in for too long on the plane, there will be no regrets at all.

Anyway, flying from the United States to Italy is not far for Lin Xi. More than 8,000 kilometers is not as far as going to Hong Kong Island, so it is not a big deal to make the trip.

Since there was nothing urgent and his next game was still eleven days away, he didn't plan to fly there all at once and would just take it slow.

Just a few hours after leaving South Town, Dr. Brown, the future man who had been pretending to be dead, suddenly spoke:
"Have you seen Zero?"
