Terrible news! My deskmate's first chapter is gone!

Chen Xi quickly took out her phone.

There are three messages above.

[Author's note: Why did the sky suddenly darken in Shangjing City? I know it's nighttime, but I've seen black fog before, so I can still tell the difference.]

Based on what you've said before, the Black Tower shouldn't be devouring everything so quickly, right? Have all the people from Fujian province been devoured?

[Wang Sanjin: Sheung Shui City has suddenly been shrouded in black fog. Do you know why?]

[Painter: I'm in Xia City, where the population is disappearing at a rate that seems to have been fast-forwarded, suddenly accelerating dramatically.]

Chen Xi quickly glanced at it and gave a brief reply.

Combining the information from these three sources, it is quite clear.

The moment the small black sphere appeared at the very top of the Black Tower, something like a program was activated.

Next, the black mist enveloped all the remaining cities on Earth and began to devour them at an accelerated pace.

The remaining population began entering the Black Tower at an incredible speed.

In short, right now...

The world was plunged into darkness!

Chen Xi did not hide anything and immediately told Yang Wei and the other person the information.

"Boss, what do we do now?"

Yang Wei was somewhat anxious. This situation required him to make a choice, and it was also the situation he was least prepared to handle.

Fortunately, I have my pillar of support by my side.

Although Yan Mingliang had some ideas, his abilities were limited, and he was also waiting for Chen Xi to make a choice.

"To Yancheng High-Speed ​​Railway Station!"

After a moment's thought, Chen Xi made a decision.

If nothing unexpected happens, it should be Chu Qingge who placed the black tower ball there.

As for how she did it, Chen Xi didn't know, and similarly, he didn't know the purpose of the symbol.

In this situation, no conclusion can be drawn, but not being able to draw a conclusion does not mean there is no way out.

This path leads to becoming stronger!

Self-improvement is an ultimate form of cognition, because some things are simply beyond the comprehension and reach of ants.

For example, if your current strength is equal to that of a cockroach, then you will be trampled to death by a pedestrian passing by on their way to work. But if your strength is that of a rat, the other party may not dare to trample you to death.

They can even steal other people's food!

This is called self-improvement!

The character in the author's story is on his way by high-speed train. Now the situation has suddenly changed, and the only thing Chen Xi can do is to upgrade himself to level III as quickly as possible in order to face the unknown risks!

Meanwhile, the painter was also rushing over, saying he wanted to work together on the follow-up.

There are no more trains running at this time, but that's okay.

He can draw!

The painter depicted a small helicopter flying over, arriving on the same day as the artist, though the exact time is uncertain.

As for Wang Sanjin, he chose to stay in Sheung Shui City to observe, saying it was necessary for the mission.

The idea remains the same: when Chen Xi is in danger, he can summon Chen Xi to his aid, and when Chen Xi encounters danger, he can also use this method to help him escape.

And he also told Chen Xi a secret.

This secret was his trump card; he hadn't told Chen Xi about it even though he knew Chen Xi could see it.

This time, I chose to be honest.

That is, the extraordinary ability of delivery drivers is to make a one-way trip by eating the food in front of the recipient after arriving at the destination.

This way, a forced return trip won't be triggered, but the trade-off is that this extraordinary feature will be unavailable for the next week.

Wang Sanjin had kept this secret hidden for a long time, but now that the world is like this, he has chosen to reveal it completely.

He also sent Chen Xi a box of mint-flavored throat lozenges, telling him to order them specifically from now on, one lozenge at a time!

Chen Xi understood this, just like when Zhang Wanyi first introduced the Magician containment object to him, she only mentioned half of its strength.

Yang Wei and the other man naturally supported Chen Xi's choice, and without saying a word, the three of them went downstairs together.

Upon entering the lobby, Lin Xiaohui, who had been standing at the front desk just moments before, was nowhere to be found.

Chen Xi looked at the wall behind the front desk, thinking about the other party's ability to book a room.

"Holy crap, did that girl get swallowed up by the Black Tower?!"

Yang Wei exclaimed in surprise.

"Impossible. Even if the Black Tower can devour superhumans, it would have to devour ordinary people first."

Chen Xi explained, as if it were commonplace.

"Should we remind her?"

Yan Mingliang clearly guessed what was going on and asked with a strong sense of boundaries.

Chen Xi nodded slightly:

"We still have plenty of time, let's give her a call."

After saying that, he took out his phone and dialed the number via WeChat.

Instead of any sound, the phone displayed a red exclamation mark!

"She deleted me?"

Chen Xi was a little confused about the other party's actions for a moment.

Instinctively, Chen Xi clicked on the other person's profile picture and saw a post on Moments that had been updated 25 minutes earlier.

The scene is a gate with flying tennis balls.

Lin Xiaohui made a YES sign, leaned her head forward close to the camera, and had a small suitcase behind her.

The caption is:

In the end, I bore it all alone!

"What the hell?!"

Chen Xi didn't understand this move at all.

I was originally planning to talk to her about superhumans.

But he couldn't understand this woman's thought process at all.

"Never mind, let's go."

Chen Xi waved his hand, and the three of them quickly left.

As soon as you go out.

Chen Xi saw a man and a woman walking towards the Flying Tennis.

The man was muscular, clearly someone who had been lifting weights for at least three years. The woman was so tall you couldn't see her toes, but she didn't have much excess fat, clearly someone who exercised regularly.

The two were chatting and laughing, and seemed to be very good friends, otherwise why would they agree to play tennis together in the middle of the night?

In the blink of an eye, the muscular man vanished.

The woman also stopped at the same time, turned around, and walked in another direction.

It is clear.

The man had just been swallowed by the black tower, and the woman's perception had also been altered; she couldn't play tennis alone, so she went to do something else.

Lin Fan... is this how you died?

Chen Xi silently made a mental note and said nothing more. The three of them continued towards Yancheng High-speed Railway Station.

This time, Chen Xi did not use the power of equality to speed up Yan Mingliang.

We weren't in a hurry to begin with, and it was a good opportunity to enjoy the scenery along the way.

In terms of darkness, Chen Xi didn't sense any change, but people were indeed disappearing much faster than before.

In this way, before long, the entire population of this world, except for a very small number of people who possess extraordinary powers, will be sent to the Black Tower.

What exactly is this supposed to be?

Chen Xi raised her head slightly, looking at the ubiquitous black tower, gazing at the very top.

Chu Qingge, what exactly do you want to do?

Destroy the world?

However, from today's perspective, the world is actually close to destruction.

Does that mean the black mist wouldn't continue to spread if the black tower sphere wasn't placed on it?
