Chapter 476 Green Crystal Seventh Layer Great Perfection [2]

The day dawned very early, even though it was almost winter and the weather was a bit cold.

Leng Hanyin got up early in the morning, and she did it with Zhang Wufeng on her back - obviously, she also felt that staying by Li Xuan's side was indeed her wishful thinking. Although the two of them did not have physical contact that night, it gave her a beautiful, unforgettable and peaceful night.

Sometimes, forever is just an expectation.

And what you once had is eternal, at least in your memory.

"Han Yin, don't go. If you really don't want to leave me, then go to Tianfeng Group."

Zhang Wufeng's words startled Leng Hanyin, who was about to leave quietly, and then a surprised smile appeared on her face.

"You, you are..."

Leng Hanyin suddenly understood, and for a moment she was filled with emotions such as sigh, shock, relief, and excitement. An inexplicable feeling of being moved and satisfied filled her heart.

Zhang Wufeng, this strange man, actually...

As the creator of "Castle in the Sky", this person can be said to be the idol and best choice in the hearts of thousands of girls, but now, she...

In fact, wasn't it because his appearance was similar to Zhang Wufeng that she exiled herself? Otherwise, would a woman ruin herself like this just to take revenge on an unworthy man?

"Yes, I am. So you understand, my enemies are very powerful, and I have some things to deal with, so it's not convenient for me to take you with me.

If you want to help me, go to Tianfeng Group and find Ye Xi, then find a copy of "Secret Transmission of True Kung Fu", practice silently and improve your strength." Zhang Wufeng looked at Leng Hanyin and said, his eyes were full of tenderness that could melt people.

"Well, I will be obedient. What about Yang Xiaolan...how should I face her?" Leng Hanyin was a little excited, but also a little embarrassed and uneasy.

"Just face it as it comes, and let everything take its course."

"Yeah..." Leng Hanyin quickly nodded in agreement.

"Haha, then I'm going out too, I'm going to rush to Qindu..." Zhang Wufeng said as he stood up from the bed.

Leng Hanyin looked at him with fascination.

Zhang Wufeng was unaware of anything. He just quietly put on his clothes, took some things, and then strode out of the hotel.

At this moment, he had already set out on his journey north, waiting only to reach Qindu, take the imperial seal and repair the dragon vein.

……

"Boom boom boom——"

The sound of knocking on the door woke Yao Gang from his thoughts.

Yao Gang put down his coffee, his eyelids twitched, he suddenly had a very strange feeling. He was startled, the strange feeling he had before being attacked by the black cat twice was very similar to the current one.

Could it be that the cat really came to the door and learned to knock?

He slowly activated the deep virus mutation, so that if attacked, he would still have the strength to fight. He came to the door and gently opened it.

Behind the door stood a little boy of about 13 or 14 years old. The boy had a bald head, was cute and adorable, and had a pink face that was so lovable. He looked up at Yao Gang, who was alert with half of his face exposed, and smiled and raised his hand: "Brother, open the door."

"Where's the cat?"

"What cat? I'm the only one here." the boy said curiously.

Yao Gang still asked cautiously: "Who are you looking for? I don't know you."

The boy stretched lazily and said, "Brother, shouldn't you open the door and let me in? Can you give me some water first? I'm very thirsty. Are you afraid of a teenager like me?"

Yao Gang was a mild-mannered person, and he couldn't bring himself to turn the door away. After hesitating for a moment, he opened the door.

The boy didn't hesitate, he walked in with his shoulders swaying, looked around, and said "It's just like a pigsty, I didn't expect you to be my partner."

Yao Gang took out a can of Coke from the refrigerator and handed it to him: "Little guy, drink it and leave quickly."

The boy sipped his Coke and said, "I told you you're my partner."

"What partner?" Yao Gang frowned and said, "I have something else to do later, so I don't have time to chat with you. Whose master didn't take a good look at you and abandoned you."

The boy said lazily, "S asked me to come."

"S?" Yao Gang widened his eyes.

The boy said seriously, "My name is Xiao Ran. I am a person who has undergone human experiments and has the ability to mutate viruses. I think you are the same. S left me a message, saying that he is looking for a person named Yao Gang, and asked us to work together to complete a task."

Yao Gang's Adam's apple moved: "How did you find me?"

The boy laughed, "It's so easy to find you. You're a famous person. Just look at the video website and you'll know. I thought those of us with the ability to mutate viruses would keep a low profile, but I didn't expect you to be so courageous. Awesome."

Yao Gang had no idea what he meant, he just stared at him and waited for what to say next.

Xiao Ran coughed lightly and said, "Let me introduce myself briefly. I am thirteen years old this year. I am known as a super prodigy, and some people also say I am a child genius. Hehe, I don't think I am bragging. When I was in the hospital, I completed part of the university courses."

"Hospital?"

"Yes. I was diagnosed with leukemia when I was ten years old, and I was in the hospital for more than three years, neither dying nor alive. I wanted to commit suicide. I couldn't bear to see my family crying and their huge fortune being wasted because of me. The day before I committed suicide, I saw an advertisement for human experiments, so I sneaked out of the hospital and got an injection. I felt good. My body seemed to be getting better. I left the 200,000 yuan to my family and decided to wander around the world. Anyway, I had become half-human, half-ghost, so I might as well go out and try my luck."

Xiao Ran talked about this lightly, as if he was telling someone else's story.

Yao Gang felt that this young man was quite interesting, so his attitude improved and he asked, "What task does S want us to do?"

Xiao Ran took out a nearly crumpled note from his pocket and handed it to him: "Let's go save a god!"

The note S gave to Xiao Ran was roughly the same as the one he gave to Yao Gang: Hello, Mr. Xiao. I think you have experienced some changes in yourself these days. I am the person in charge of the experiment. You can call me S. You are currently in a very dangerous situation. I think you often feel that you are being watched. Your life is in danger. Now you must partner with a man named Yao Gang. His specific information is as follows. Your mission is to rescue a person at Qiao Yuanshan Cemetery. He is a person with the ultimate state of virus mutation. He can help you get out of trouble and answer all your questions.

Yao Gang was puzzled. "What does this so-called god-man look like? Tall, short, fat, thin, male, female? There's nothing written about him. How can I find him?"

Xiao Ran stretched lazily: "These are all later stories. Big brother, let me talk about you first. What happened to you after you got the virus mutation ability?"

Yao Gang looked at the little brat, hesitated for a moment, and briefly described his abilities and experiences. Xiao Ran nodded: "Your ability is levitation. Let me tell you about my ability, mine is mimicry."

"Mimicry?"

"Mimicry, to put it simply, is a form of camouflage for insects, hiding themselves by blending in with the environment."

"I understand this." Yao Gang said, "Then what is the specific manifestation of your ability?"

Xiao Ran smiled mysteriously: "Avoid light! I have studied the relevant physics topics carefully. When I enter the virus mutation state, I can make all visible light and electromagnetic radiation take a detour. When light shines on my body, it will neither reflect nor cast a shadow. Just like this..."

Yao Gang's eyes widened in shock. The young man in front of him was gradually disappearing from the sofa, his figure becoming fainter and fainter, and finally there was no one. Only ten seconds later, his outline gradually became clear again.

Xiao Ran asked with a smile: "How is it?"

Yao Gang stuttered a little: "Awesome."

Xiao Ran said: "We are not that great, at most we can protect ourselves. The most powerful virus mutation ability belongs to the killer."

"Killer?" Yao Gang asked in confusion, blinking his eyes.

Xiao Ran sighed: "You really don't know. When I was undergoing the virus mutation experiment, Sister Wang Jiajia gave me an instruction manual. Didn't you take it?"

Yao Gang remembered that he was in a hurry to pay back the money, so he forgot about it. Xiao Ran said: "The virus's ability to mutate is unstable, which not only causes changes in the physiological structure, but also may affect the temperament and thinking of the test subject. The aggressive ones are called killers, and the ones who are in self-protection are called defenders. You and I are both defenders according to our ability."

Yao Gang blinked rapidly and said hastily, "Then the strange cat I encountered is an aggressive killer?"

Xiao Ran bit his fingernails and said, "I think so. Judging from your experience, this strange cat's attack on you is completely innate. Let's put it this way, the killer will attack the defender, or even the virus mutant who is also a killer!"

"The cat is just a beast. People are not so irrational." Yao Gang disagreed.

Xiao Ran snorted, "Humans are more dangerous than cats. Cats attack directly, but humans can disguise themselves. Humans are the most intelligent creatures, so their attacks are more covert and diverse. When humans go crazy, aren't there many cases in history where they massacre their own kind on a large scale?"

Yao Gang felt ashamed in front of this kid. This boy was so young, yet he had so much experience.

Xiao Ran said: "As the party defending ourselves, we can't put all our hopes of survival on the mercy of the killers, we must maximize our own abilities. There is another thing that puzzles me. If the killer's attack is really like what you said, for example, the cat's attack on you is a fight for life without any reservation. Then the killer and the defender, the killer and the killer must be a life-and-death battle. The predictable outcome is that only one person with the virus mutation ability can survive in a unit area, or all the virus mutants will be wiped out in a fight!"

When Yao Gang heard his inference, he felt a chill down his spine.

Xiao Ran continued biting his nails and said, "This is what I don't understand. This all looks more like a killing game. It feels to me that the person hosting this experiment is either a pervert who likes to watch massacre programs, or there is some deeper conspiracy. I tend to be more inclined to the latter. Oh, it's really a headache. I hate this kind of confrontation with unequal information the most."

Yao Gang felt that although his reasoning was well-founded, it was still too unbelievable.

He said sarcastically, "What S meant by impending disaster is that we will be killed by the so-called killer at any time, right?"

Xiao Ran is a smart little boy. Although he has handsome features, in Yao Gang's eyes, he always seems to have a ghostly look between his eyebrows, which is a bit too creepy.

Maybe anything abnormal is a demon.

This child shows a maturity and wisdom beyond his age, which always makes people feel strange.

Xiao Ran saw his disdain and asked, "Brother, why don't you go online?"

"Of course." "What do you do online? Play games, flirt with girls?"

"Nonsense. I look up information and read the news. I don't read any nonsense."

Xiao Ran smiled and said, "There was a sensational news on the forum in this city recently. You saw it. Six people died tragically at the city's music school."

"I saw it, what's the matter?"

Xiao Ran: "Don't you think it's hard for an ordinary person to do this? Six people, four of them are strong migrant workers, and one is a member of the school basketball team. One person killed six of them silently. Is this an ordinary person?"

Yao Gang's eyelids twitched: "You mean..."

Xiao Ran nodded: "If I'm not mistaken, it must have been done by a killer. I don't know the specific information yet, but I can be sure that this killer's ability is very terrifying and amazing, and he has a clear mind and a very high IQ. He is a very, very scary opponent."

He used two "very" here.

"Why did he kill people?" Yao Gang asked.

Xiao Ran made a shocked expression: "Brother, no way. Did you graduate from college? It's very simple. Among the six people who died, one or more of them must have been virus mutants. But I think the possibility that all six were virus mutants is too low. Then the few who died with them were either witnesses who accidentally saw the massacre and were involved in it to silence them; or they were pawns in the chess game set by the murderer to hunt down other virus mutants, that is, sacrifices."

He then sighed, "A cold-blooded killer with super powers and a very high IQ. He can kill us almost instantly."

Yao Gang laughed at his little look: "What are you afraid of? We have the ability to protect ourselves. If it doesn't work, I will float away and you will disappear without a trace."

"This is exactly what I am most worried about, and it is also the biggest weakness of the virus's mutation ability!"

Xiao Ran kept it a secret: "Brother, think back, what were you doing when you felt the murderous intent?"

Yao Gang recalled carefully. The first time was when he was practicing levitation in the back mountain; the second time was when he was hiding from two migrant workers; the third time was when he was collecting a debt from Zhou Xiaohu. The common feature of these three times was that he was in a state of virus mutation.

It turned out to be the case.

Xiao Ran saw his enlightened look and smiled, "I knew you could figure it out. My reasoning is that when a virus mutant enters the virus mutant state, it will emit a signal. It is not clear whether it is an electronic signal, a biological signal, or a particle flow. This signal can be detected and received by the same species."

Yao Gang nodded: "That makes sense. The strange cat attacked me because I was in a state of virus mutation at the time and it locked onto me."

Xiao Ran said: "I can make a bold inference. Because cats are killers, they can tell the coming season from a single leaf. When killers detect the special signals of their companions, they will chase and kill them! Cats are beasts after all, and their attacks on their own kind only depend on the signals."

Yao Gang suddenly realized: "It's true. I was wondering why the strange cat hasn't appeared these days. Because I have always been an ordinary person. So in the vast sea of ​​people, it would never find me."

"Cats are probably only targeting signals, not people. They are not just targeting you. If there are special signals of other virus-mutated people around, they will chase and kill them desperately. People are more complicated." Xiao Ran took a big sip of Coke and said, "As long as they confirm that you are in a virus-mutated state, you will be hunted to the end regardless of whether you are in a virus-mutated state. After all, the nature of the killer is to kill all virus-mutated people, adhering to the cruel rule that the same kind cannot coexist. They wish you were in an ordinary state, so it would be easier to kill you."

"That's why I say the virus's mutation ability has a fatal flaw. It's a double-edged sword, a community of contradictions. When the virus enters the mutation state, you can detect where the enemy is. At the same time, you also expose your position, and it's a matter of life and death." Xiao Ran looked at him straight: "You are an extremely dangerous person now. I shouldn't have contacted you, but I was dragged into it."

Yao Gang's face changed drastically: "What do you mean? Little brat."

Xiao Ran stretched lazily: "Open the video website and watch it for yourself."

Yao Gang quickly opened the website. The video with the most views was about a magician. When he saw the screenshot, his face turned pale. This was exactly himself in the levitation state. He quickly clicked on the video. It was the scene of practicing levitation in the back mountain that day. Who knows who filmed the whole process and posted it online.

There are countless replies below, and one of them is particularly shocking.

"I know the guy inside. His name is Yao Gang."

The more Yao Gang looked at it, the more frightened he became, and his hands were shaking as he touched the mouse.

Xiao Ran sighed: "Brother, you have become a popular figure now. The common target of all killers! A piece of meat that fell into the wolf pack."

Yao Gang stood up suddenly: "Move! Move right away."

……

Three days later, Yao Gang found a new house, not too far from the city center, very quiet environment, convenient transportation, but the rent is expensive. But he has already taken nearly 20,000 yuan from Zhou Xiaohu, so he won't worry about money in the short term. He once hinted to Xiao Ran to use invisibility to steal some money for emergency use.

Xiao Ran snorted, and taught him like a little adult: "A gentleman loves money, but he gets it in a proper way."

"Then why did you take someone else's notebook?"

"I only take what I need right now. Besides, since this ability will be with me for my whole life, then this world is my warehouse. I can take it whenever I want. Let the bank keep it for me for two days first." Xiao Ran said calmly.

Yao Gang almost burst out laughing.

After a busy day, they finally moved their home. Xiao Ran lazily lay on the sofa and stretched: "I announce that the Fumao Project will be officially launched tomorrow."

Xiao Ran's plan was this: he would act as bait, enter the virus mutation state, and attract the strange cat. Yao Gang would lie in ambush as a surprise soldier, and when he found the strange cat appeared, he would quickly attack and take it down in one fell swoop.

Yao Gang thought about every detail of the plan carefully, shook his head and said, "This is too dangerous. Your reaction and sensitivity need to be improved. This is a life-threatening job, and your life is in danger at any time."

Xiao Ran was very calm: "Brother, this is the only plan. Although we are self-protective defenders, our biggest advantage compared to other virus mutants is that we form a team and can complement each other's abilities. Don't waste this advantage. I think this plan is the most reasonable. Don't worry, once my virus mutates, I will enter an invisible state, and the monster cat will not find me so easily. Our goal is to lure it out, and the rest depends on you."

After finalizing the details, the two returned to the residential area. Yao Gang led the way based on his memory and slowly found the alley. He pointed at the high wall and said, "I almost died in this dead end that day. Two migrant workers chased me."

Xiao Ran said with a smile: "Hurry up and find a place to ambush. I'm ready."

Yao Gang stepped on the wall and climbed up to the roof in a few steps. He ambushed in a dark corner and looked around vigilantly.

Xiao Ran took a deep breath and slowly entered the virus mutation state. His figure gradually became blurred. From a distance, he looked like a ghost under the shadow of the eaves.

Yao Gang shouted, "What are you doing? If you want to hide, hide completely."

Xiao Ran replied: "No. My ability is very poor. If I turn completely invisible, I'm afraid I won't be able to support that strange cat."

"You're in danger!"

"Shut up!" Xiao Ran shouted, "I feel murderous intent!"

Yao Gang looked around carefully. The huge roof was exposed to the sun and was empty and quiet. There was no cat or even a bird.

His heart was in his throat. Xiao Ran was completely exposed to the firepower of the monster cat. If he made a mistake, he would lose everything. This was a fight for his life.

Time seemed to stand still. After an unknown amount of time, Yao Gang also felt the murderous aura coming, but it was not as strong. Because he was not in the state of virus mutation, his ability to sense signals was extremely weak.

He looked at Xiao Ran, then at the empty roof, and his palms were sweaty with nervousness. It was already spring, the weather was good, and there was no wind. But at this moment, this scene gave people a strong illusion of falling into an ice cave.

At this moment, a black shadow flew over from the rooftop in the distance. It was the strange cat. Yao Gang secretly said, "Good boy, I've been waiting for you." He slowly took off a sharp knife from his waist. This knife was a Seibu sword that he bought at a street stall when he went to Seibu for a trip a few years ago. It has Buddha patterns all over it and a fake bead is embedded in the handle, which looks very realistic. The reason why I liked it was because it was already sharpened when I bought it. I bought it just for the sake of rarity, but now I can use it.

Yao Gang took a deep breath, slowly crawled out from the shadows, tiptoed, made a big circle and outflanked the black cat.

The black cat's eyes were green and emitting an eerie light as it stared at the alley below. It clearly sensed the presence of its own kind, but there was nothing in front of it, so it could not confirm the other party's location.

It kept meowing anxiously and lingering on the roof. Its body was getting bigger and bigger, and its black hair stood up.

At this time, a figure appeared in the shadow of the alley. Yao Gang took a glimpse and thought to himself that it was bad, Xiao Ran's virus mutation state had reached its limit.

The cat's eye suddenly shrank, and a poisonous needle shot towards the target at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye.

Yao Gang cried out softly, and the needle hit the figure with a "puff", stirring up a cloud of smoke. He roared, "You beast, I'll kill you." He ignored everything and rushed out with the knife in his hand.

"No!" Xiao Ran shouted in the alley. He had completely revealed himself. At this moment, he was wearing a small vest and shorts, and the figure was just the coat in his hand.

When the black cat saw the enemy appear, another poison needle shot out from its other eye. Xiao Ran tensed up and rolled to the ground desperately. In that split second, no one could see what happened.

Yao Gang was completely stunned, and then he came to his senses. It turned out that the figure that appeared at the beginning was just a trick of Xiao Ran. He wanted to lure the monster cat to shoot out both poison needles. However, the plan failed due to his impulsiveness. I don't know if he avoided the last attack.

The black cat was like a true warrior. After completing the mission, it would not linger on. Instead, it returned to its normal state, turned around and flew away.

Xiao Ran shouted, "Why are you still standing there? This is a rare opportunity, kill it quickly."

Yao Gang watched him get up from the ground, breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly chased after the black cat.

Xiao Ran slowly stood up, put on his coat, and walked out of the alley step by step. He didn't walk far before he could no longer support himself and fell to the ground with a plop, unable to stand up again.

There was a poison needle stuck in his wrist, and the surrounding skin had begun to rot!
Here, Yao Gang was still chasing desperately. The black cat was extremely agile, jumping up and down, flying over walls and ridges.

Yao Gang had nothing in his mind but one thought: to kill it. The energy flowed through his body, evolving from conscious control to subconscious natural stimulation.

A man and a cat kept shuttling back and forth in this community of high and low tube-shaped buildings. The strange cat's physique and reaction were obviously much higher than those of ordinary cats. It could even step on and jump between two walls in a "Z" shape. From the air, it looked like a ball of black lightning.

Yao Gang fully unleashed his potential, gritting his teeth and following the black cat to perform various extremely dangerous evasive maneuvers.

The two buildings were nearly ten meters apart. The black cat leaped into the air with a sprint, floating towards the opposite side like a black umbrella. Yao Gang didn't even think twice, and roared, following it into the air. It was his first time to glide in the air over such a long distance. He could only hear the sound of wind in his ears, and time seemed to have stopped.

The man and the cat were frozen in the vast sky as if they were in a science fiction movie.

Time passed very slowly in Yao Gang's eyes. The trembling of every hair of the black cat was reflected in his eyes. He swung out a knife and chopped into the black cat's body with a "puff". Blood splattered in the air.

In an instant, the man and the cat fell from the air onto the opposite platform, and everything returned to normal.

The gliding in the air only lasted for a few seconds, but the impact it brought to Yao Gang was absolutely shocking. He seemed to have realized something.

The black cat rolled over and over on the platform with the knife due to its huge inertia, and suddenly hit the guardrail, and it was dying. The cat curled up into a ball, trembling constantly, its little claws kept scratching, and the cat's eyes gradually lost their light, turning gray.
