Chapter 184 Shadow Town

Seeing Jonathan coming, Jill finally felt relieved.

In her opinion, there was nothing in the world that Jonathan couldn't solve.

Julie saw that there was one more person, and for a moment she could not think of going in and exploding again.

He shouted directly to the other three people, "Now!"

Then her body began to glow red, as if she was about to explode at any time.

Jonathan was well prepared for the Desperate Warrior's self-destruction skill.

He took out the four powerful anesthetic needles that had been kept in the space bracelet, and then used telekinesis to control the four anesthetic needles to fly towards the four desperate warriors respectively.

Because as long as the brain is not destroyed, they will not die, and these four desperate warriors are ready to self-destruct.

So when faced with Jonathan's attack, they simply chose to ignore it.

It was because of this behavior of contempt for each other that the powerful anesthetic was successfully injected into their bodies.

The dose of each injection was enough to anesthetize an elephant, so the four people fell into anesthesia in the blink of an eye.

After seeing several people fall to the ground, Jonathan continued to take out the liquid nitrogen spray gun that he had prepared in advance.

Liquid nitrogen was quickly sprayed on the unconscious people. With the help of the desperate virus, their metabolism was greatly improved.

So Jonathan had to keep them frozen to prevent them from breaking down the anesthetic too quickly.

After doing all this, the defense shield protecting the Umbrella Building retreated directly, and the closed steel door gradually rose.

A team of biochemical soldiers quickly ran out from inside the Umbrella Building and carried the four desperate warriors onto stretchers.

Sent to the jump gate located in the basement of the Umbrella Building.

Then send it to the hive via the jump gate.

For the study of biochemical viruses, the desperate virus can be said to be a rare material.

Thinking of this, Jonathan thought of the woman named Maya Hansen.

It was this woman who initially refined the Extremis virus.

Even though this woman had a romantic history with Tony Stark, it didn't mean that Jonathan couldn't directly snatch her scientific research results.

Thinking of this, Jonathan said hello to Jill and then teleported directly to the hive.

Dr. Isaac was currently examining a desperate soldier, from drawing blood to doing tests.

Dr. Isaac kept saying "Incredible!" and "Perfect!"

And other words of praise for the desperate virus.

"How's it going, Doctor?"

Jonathan stepped forward and asked, looking at the petri dish in Isaac's hand.

Isaac raised his head from the microscope and looked at Jonathan beside him.

"This virus is incredible! It has no side effects and can turn the human body into a battery that can continuously output energy."

"It can also enhance the body's metabolism, but it does not have the disadvantages of the T virus."

"Moreover, the level of the scientists who prepared the virus is quite poor. They are unable to control the energy output ratio, causing those who are injected with the virus to become human bombs at any time."

While praising, Dr. Isaac also did not forget to criticize Maya Hansen and Killian.

"However, we don't have the original copy of the virus, and it is a huge project to reverse engineer the virus through the gene sequences of these people."

Isaac sighed, then looked at Jonathan and asked, "Can you get the mother copy of the Extremis virus?"

Looking at Dr. Isaac, Jonathan nodded. Maya Hansen should be working for Killian now.

As long as we find him, it shouldn't be difficult to get the mother copy of the virus.

"Just tell Red Queen to do this."

Jonathan told Isaac that he no longer needed to do this kind of thing himself.

All we need to do is let Red Queen hack into the network, find Maya Hansen's location, and then kidnap her.

As for Jonathan, he has more important things to do, which is to collect the power of the world.

If you ask Jonathan if he is nervous, the answer is definitely yes.

After all, it was his first time traveling through an eroded world, and he didn't know what kind of enemies he would encounter.

But for the power of the world, he had no choice but to take the risk.

Although now, even if Jonathan doesn't work hard, he can still live a good life.

But adventure is like XD, it is addictive.

And even if Athena didn't say it explicitly, Jonathan could see her desire for the power of the world.

After spending so much time with Athena, Jonathan no longer trusts this little girl who claims every day that she is an artificial intelligence.

Well, the artificial intelligence part.

After all, Athena gave him the feeling of a living person.

And Jonathan could also feel that Athena was hiding a lot of things from him, and he only needed to ask.

She will let herself collect the power of the world.

In response to this, Athena always looked mischievous every time she spoke to him.

However, it was not difficult for Jonathan to detect the anxiety in her eyes.

Although Jonathan was never urged, he could see that time was not as abundant as he thought.

At least Athena was really anxious, but she always hid this anxiety very well in front of herself.

"Jonathan, be careful." Athena stretched out her little arm and pulled the corner of Jonathan's clothes.

Jonathan stopped and looked back at the tiny Athena, using his palm which was big enough to cover Athena's entire head.

Gentle mosha on top of her head.

"Don't worry, I will." Jonathan said with a smile.

Looking at Jonathan, Athena seemed to want to say something, but didn't.

Then he watched Jonathan step into the dimensional door that opened up all permissions.

After passing through the dimensional gate, what comes into view is thick fog.

There is a bright white moon hanging in the sky.

The howling of wolves echoed in the forest in the wilderness.

Jonathan appeared in a dark alley.

He walked a few steps forward and saw a few drunks huddled in a corner.

But their expressions didn't seem to be just drunkenness.

Even when Jonathan walked over, these people were still there in a daze and did not react at all to Jonathan's actions.

"Hey, can you hear me?" Jonathan walked up to one of the drunks.

He was wearing a tattered linen shirt and his pants were full of patches, looking like a serf in medieval Europe.

Seeing that the drunk still didn't react, Jonathan was ready to reach out and touch this slightly dirty-looking man.

"Stop, are you trying to kill yourself?" A crisp voice rang out, and Jonathan turned around and saw a man who was also wearing a tattered linen shirt and a leather shoulder strap on his back.

There were several daggers stuck in it.

On the girl's head was a detective hat that also looked like it was made of leather.

Unlike those drunks, the girl's eyes were very clear, without any turbidity at all.

Seeing Jonathan looking at her with doubtful eyes, the girl continued in her clear voice, "If you want to become a walking corpse like them, then go touch them."

After the girl said this, she did not continue to dissuade Jonathan and turned to leave the alley.

Jonathan looked at the drunk in front of him again and indeed found something strange.

Although the drunk's face looks intact, it is not difficult to see that his facial muscles are actually a little loose.

Shaking his head, Jonathan withdrew his hand that was about to touch the drunk man, then followed the girl's steps and left the dark alley.

"Wait." Jonathan walked behind the girl.

Seeing Jonathan catching up, the girl smiled.

"Why, changed your mind?" The girl tilted her head and stood in front of Jonathan.

Asked a bit playfully.

"Yes, I changed my mind. I am a traveler from another place, passing by here, and I don't know much about the situation here."

"So I think it's better to listen to you." Jonathan said, looking around.

There was still thick fog all around, with visibility no more than five meters.

The chandelier in the girl's hand is one of the few sources of light nearby.

"Traveler?" Listening to Jonathan's improvised origin.

Although the girl knew that Jonathan was lying at the first moment, she did not expose his words.

"Hello, I'm Ivy. Welcome to Shadow Town, traveler from afar."

Between the lines, Ivy placed special emphasis on the word "far away".

Naturally, Jonathan could see from Ivy's expression that she had seen through his lies.

But since the other party hasn't exposed me, I can continue to act.

"Where are we going now?"

Jonathan asked a little curiously.

He had never heard of either Shadow Town or Ivy, and this world was most likely not any world he was familiar with.

"Let's go to our village. It's not safe in town at night. So we can't stay here for long."

Facing Jonathan's question, the girl turned her head and answered in a calm tone.

Hearing this, Jonathan did not ask any further questions, even though the situation at hand was full of doubts.

But now is not a good time to ask.

Let’s first see what the purpose of this girl named Ivy is.

Jonathan thought in his heart at this moment.

Because of the thick fog all around, visibility was not very high.

Without any reference, it was difficult for Jonathan to judge how far he had walked.

But according to the time, he and Ivy had been walking for about half an hour.

According to his and Ivy's moderate pace, they walked about five kilometers.

In front of the thick fog, Jonathan vaguely saw a ball of yellow light.

As he and Ivy got closer, they saw a wooden wall about three people tall.

There is a big gate on the front, with a lot of specially spliced ​​spikes on it, as if it is defending against some creature.

"We're here." Ivy smiled at Jonathan and said.

Jonathan nodded when he heard this.

"Ike, it's me, Ivy. Open the door. This is a traveler I met on the road." Ivy shouted loudly to the guards on the sentry towers on both sides of the gate.

"Ivy? Are you back so soon?" A middle-aged man's voice came from the tower.

Then Jonathan heard a creaking sound and the wooden door slowly opened.

Walking inside, the thick fog in the village seemed to be driven away by something and dissipated all of a sudden.

But when Jonathan looked back, he found that the fog outside the gate was still so thick.

It is impossible to see the road behind the fog.

"What's going on? Why doesn't the thick fog come in when it reaches the entrance of the village?"

Jonathan asked Ivy beside him.

"There is a holy stone in the village that can dispel the fog." Ivy pointed to a huge rock in front.

This so-called holy stone is transparent throughout, and its countless edges and corners make it look a bit crystal clear.

Moreover, the holy stone would emit a faint halo from time to time, as if dispersing the thick fog.

So far, the world feels to Jonathan like a cross between the world of Bloodborne and a regular Victorian steampunk Cthulhu world.

Following Ivy's footsteps, Jonathan came to a house that was obviously larger than the others.

"Village Chief, I'm Ivy, I'm back." Ivy walked to the door, knocked on it and said.

After a while, there was a creaking sound, and the wooden door opened. A bald old man with a hunched figure came out with a cane.

"Ivy, who is this?" The old man whom Ivy called the village chief raised his cane and pointed at Jonathan.

He asked, looking at Ivy with a slightly expectant look.

Ivy nodded slightly to the village chief without leaving any trace, and then introduced, "This is the traveler I met on the road."

"Traveler! Just be a traveler, just be a traveler."

Hearing this, the village chief seemed a little happy.

Beneath the dense wrinkles, there was a somewhat creepy expression.

"Ivy, you can arrange for him to live here. There are no extra houses in the village. Since you brought him back, let him live in the same house with you."

The village chief stroked his chin and spoke to Jonathan and Ivy.

"Okay, village chief." Ivy not only did not resist the village chief's arrangement, but showed a hint of joy.

Jonathan saw all these strange behaviors.

I don’t know if it’s because the world is being eroded by the void, but after Jonathan came to this world, he found that most of his abilities had been greatly weakened.

The limit of telekinesis is that it can only detect a distance of five meters. In a village without thick fog, it will be a little farther, but only about seven or eight meters.

As for the mind-reading ability, it has been weakened to the point where one cannot hear the other person's thoughts at all.

As for other abilities, Jonathan has not tried them yet.

But he had a feeling that the whole world was putting pressure on him, so it was estimated that the power of his other abilities had probably been greatly weakened.
