"Hurry up and find cover. We are much closer than before. We can't take any chances."
With a serious expression, Shane directed the team members to find a place to hide in the ruins. Lin Yi and others also looked for a relatively solid corner to wait for the shock wave to arrive. Because this floor was close to the lowest floor and too close to the release point of the shock wave, it had become tattered and full of signs of collapse and destruction, looking like a scene from a disaster movie. However, no one was in the mood to appreciate this kind of scenery. They just quickly found a relatively safe corner and waited quietly.
Lin Yi huddled at the edge of a corner, Jian Zi squeezed beside him with his back to back, while Shirou Emiya hid under a few tables not far away. At this moment, there was still a little time before the shock wave arrived, but for safety reasons, no one moved forward, but just stayed here waiting for the shock wave to arrive.
"By the way, what kind of world do you all come from?"
Lin Yi, who felt a little bored, started a new topic at this time.
"What kind of world is this? Will the worlds that different saviors live in be very different?"
Jianzi turned his head slightly and asked curiously.
"Well, some are really big. For example, the two friends I met on my first mission, one of them seems to be in the modern world, where electric lights are not popular, and there are man-eating monsters wandering at night. As for the other one, her world seems to be full of all kinds of weird natural disasters, and there is a widespread dangerous disease. Different countries are built on modules on huge mobile land ships, and the situation between countries is quite dangerous. Well, in her own words, she lives in a land that is gradually falling apart. I think that's the situation."
Lin Yi spoke first after a little thought.
"It all sounds so scary... I'm just an ordinary high school student. I don't know why I can see all kinds of things recently, but the world I live in is generally quite normal. Generally speaking, there's nothing too abnormal."
After a moment's hesitation, Jianzi thought for a moment and spoke in a low voice.
"As for me, I'm probably a bit similar to Miss Yotsuya. My side is also the kind of world that seems normal on the surface, but there is a "backside" that ordinary people can't access. I was actually the kind of person who knew nothing about it, but for some reasons I was eventually involved in the "backside" and gained the power I have now. Well, overall I am still very grateful for that experience. Without those days, I probably wouldn't have become a savior who firmly believes in helping others, right?"
As Emiya Shirou recalled something, his expression showed a hint of tenderness.
hum-
The shock wave came suddenly, blocking the question that Jianzi wanted to ask, "Senior, what is your world like?"
Everything began to shake violently at this moment. More and more cracks spread out on the already shattered walls, floors and ceilings. All kinds of tables, chairs and small objects were flying around, and everyone could only try their best to steady themselves to prevent themselves from being thrown out.
This time the shock was the same as before, lasting only about 10 seconds before stopping.
The people who escaped danger walked out of their hiding places. Captain Shane counted the number of people once again and showed a relieved expression after confirming that there were no casualties. Lin Yi had already taken the lead in finding the passage to the next floor and started moving forward.
"Senior, what kind of world do you live in?"
At this time, Jianzi asked the question that he had not asked before and followed Lin Yi.
“Ah, I…”
I was banned from my original world civilization, so I had no idea what my home looked like.
Lin Yi originally wanted to give a straightforward answer like this, but considering that this kind of thing was quite troublesome to explain, he changed his way of saying it after a little thought.
"The world I live in can be considered a peaceful and ordinary world. When the mission is over, you will know if you come and see it when you have a chance. Although I may not have anything to entertain guests."
In the end, Lin Yi simply made an invitation.
"Hey, can I?"
The girl blinked as she spoke, and couldn't help but feel curious about Lin Yi's world.
For a moment, I thought about the ghosts and spirits that often roam around in my home.
The corpse-dismembering female ghost looks rather abstract, and the things she does are also rather abstract, but generally speaking she is completely harmless, and will even actively protect people who are being harmed by the spirit, so there is no need to worry.
Even though the purple-faced kid is very naughty and disgusting, he is studying hard every day to become the king of involution in the underworld. If he doesn't study hard, his ghost parents will give him a slap of love, so there is no need to worry.
The rotten-faced twins do look very R18G, and are the type that would be warned not to spread their content if it were posted to the nuclear bar, but one of them just likes to sit quietly and the other just likes to peek, neither of them is the type to hurt others, so it's not a big problem and there's no need to worry.
无脸小女孩因为被自己揍过所以一直想报复回来,应该不会对无关的见子动手,就算会动手那个碎尸女鬼也会把自己拼成剑骸大剑给她来一个爱的狮子斩,所以更不用担心。
"Yeah, that's totally fine."
Then, Lin Yi smiled and gave Jianzi a thumbs up while speaking.
Chapter 19: Burning Chains
Finally, by the time everyone reached the floor where the giant chain pierced through the building, it was five minutes after the second shock wave arrived.
Lin Yi was the first to jump down from the dilapidated floor and landed on the several-meter-wide iron chain. The overly large iron chain was enough for three to four people to walk side by side, running through the building and connecting to the dilapidated research building in the air. It seemed to be a distance of nearly a hundred meters.
“I have to say it’s quite spectacular.”
Standing at the intersection of the iron chain and the building, Lin Yi looked down, at the huge glowing light body, feeling the scorching temperature and violently fluctuating energy transmitted by it, and couldn't help but sigh in a low voice.
"This place doesn't look like a normal world at all. It's more like... more like some kind of mental world, a world transformed from inner attitudes."
At this moment, Shirou Emiya seemed to feel something and couldn't help but sigh in a low voice, attracting Lin Yi's attention.
"The world of mind images?"
The address the young man made Lin Yi frown slightly.
"In the world I live in, this is a forbidden magic. The user unfolds his or her inner world, temporarily tampering with reality and creating the power of another dimension. Well... in a sense, the mental world can also be called the end world of the user. It is the final destination after going through hardships, and it represents the user's own will and destiny."
There was a hint of emotion in Emiya Shirou's words, and a hint of reminiscence in his eyes.
Lin Yi didn’t know what the young man was thinking, but he could vaguely feel that he was immersed in some emotion.
"Ahem, then, no matter what, now we have to find a way to reach that building area. As for the theory of the mental world, well, we will slowly verify it later. We have already wasted some time. After the third shock wave, we will be ready to move on."
With a light cough, Lin Yi said as he found a place to hide.
The rest of the people also looked for a place to hide. Because they had already faced two shock waves, everyone was much more skilled this time. Not long after, after a violent shock wave, everyone stood out again and stepped onto the huge iron chain that ran through the building.
"So, are you all ready, everyone?"
Amidst these words, Lin Yi was the first to step out of the intersection of the iron chain and the building, entering the external space without any obstruction.
piping hot.
Flowing hot air.
Under the crumbling earth above his head, above the burning sun below, and in this huge iron chain suspended in the air that was beyond common sense, Lin Yi felt a strong current of heat.
Exhale. Inhale.
Just by breathing, I felt a burning sensation in my lungs.
"The temperature is at least 50 degrees. We can't stay here for long."
Lin Yi made a quick judgment and quickened his pace the next moment.
"So hot……"
Jianzi, who was not in very good physical condition, took a breath and ran with all his might.
The special operations teams in the rear and Shirou Emiya, who was at the end to prevent accidents, also moved forward together. This team of more than ten people took a step forward and quickly approached the mysterious building complex at the end.
hum-
Lin Yi heard the vibration sound of the huge light body below.
"The fourth shock wave is advancing. I'm afraid we only have 5 minutes."
Lin Yi quickened his pace once more while saying this, then frowned and stopped.
Air, moving?
On the chain ahead, in the air slightly distorted by the heat flow, something was moving with an unnatural rhythm.
If it was the special forces or Shirou Emiya, they probably wouldn't be able to see the subtle difference, after all, the air around them was constantly producing visual distortion due to the high temperature. But Lin Yi would not make a mistake, because he could feel the energy vibrations around him. In this area close to the high-intensity energy body, Lin Yi's senses were highly amplified due to the dissipated energy, so he quickly felt that something was wrong.
"Jianzi, observe your surroundings!"
Shouting this, Lin Yi raised the automatic rifle in his hand and opened fire directly, attacking in front of the chain.
"Woo, I see. I didn't see anything... No, that's not right, Senior, in front of you, those things are almost blending into the air. They are burning all over, just like the color of the sky around them... Woo, not only that, there are several flying in the sky around us!"
Wiping the sweat from her face, the girl widened her eyes and noticed some details that she had not noticed before.
monster.
Monsters emerged from the dilapidated research area.
It looked similar to the monsters in the city outside, but it was burning with dim flames all over its body, so that it almost blended into the dim sky background. It was almost misjudged as a monster.
There were five or six of them in front of them, very fast and with strong climbing ability. There were three monsters flying in the sky on the left and two on the right, also swooping down at this team at high speed! They, they were already here!
"Where is the location of the monster in the sky?"
Holding up the assault rifle in his hand, Shane asked loudly at this time. Jianzi subconsciously looked over with his eyes, and then remembered that these special forces soldiers could not calculate the enemy's position and distance instantly through their line of sight and pupil size like Lin Yi, so he quickly pointed to a flying monster on the side.
The next moment, the gunshot rang out. The winged monster was hit by the bullet and lost its balance and fell down. It turned into ashes not long after it fell. But the other monsters were approaching quickly at this moment, aiming directly at Jianzi in the team. The twisted screams made the girl retreat repeatedly, and she almost missed a step and fell off the huge chain.
boom!
Lin Yi's gunshot rang out in time.
Bang bang bang bang! ! !
No verbal communication is required.
The girl only needed to move her gaze towards one monster after another.
Lin Yi's bullets will decisively hit these high-speed moving monsters in the next moment. He can even calculate the lead time based on the trajectory of Jianzi's eyes, and continue to hit the monsters that have actually left the girl's observation area and blow them up.
But this is not the end, because because Lin Yi turned around to defend, the monsters attacking from the front also approached and leaped directly towards Lin Yi who had his back to them.
"careful!"
Seeing Zi shouting loudly, Lin Yi didn't even turn his head. He stretched out his left hand from his waist, pointed a submachine gun behind him and pulled the trigger.
The extended magazine of 60 bullets was all fired out in less than 6 seconds, piercing through several monsters that pounced from the front with a violent shock sound.
Then, Lin Yi suddenly lowered his head and dodged a monster that pounced on him while Jianzi's sight changed. The dagger came out from his sleeve and cut the monster's chest.
Shirou Emiya's arrow was shot out from behind almost at the same time, piercing the monster whose belly was ripped open, and knocked it away with a powerful impact force. It hit the huge iron chain and fell several times before falling down, falling towards the sun and turning into ashes like its previous counterpart.
“Nice shoot!”
Lin Yi raised his head and stretched his body, praising Shirou Emiya behind him. On the other side, Jian Zi also breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Lin Yi solve the crisis, and subconsciously hugged the stuffed rabbit in his hand tighter.
Come to think of it, how many times has the other party saved my life?
At the moment when the thrilling scene ended, Jianzi breathed a sigh of relief, and then couldn't help thinking this in his heart.
I, who was saved time and time again by my seniors, had no need to participate in the battle, nor did I have the ability to participate in the battle...
"Jianzi, check if there are any other monsters around."
"Oh, I see! Well, it looks like there are no monsters left."
Lin Yi's words pulled the girl out of her thoughts. She nodded slightly, then looked around. She didn't see anything abnormal on the huge iron chain or in the air around it. After confirming that there should be no problem, she nodded slightly and gave an affirmative answer.
"That's good, let's move on."
Then, when Lin Yi said this and turned around to continue moving forward, Jianzi saw a monster with dim flames burning all over its body suddenly jumping up from under the chain and rushing straight towards her.
"what--"
There was no time to even shout out.
Watching the other person grow bigger in front of your eyes.
But, I didn't touch myself.
This thing did not touch me.
The leaping monster stopped in mid-air. For some reason, Lin Yi, who should have turned around, suddenly turned around, stretched out his hand and directly grabbed the leg of the monster in mid-air, allowing his palm to be covered with marks of burning and cracking in an instant, and he had no intention of letting go.
"Sure enough, I guessed that there might be one or two more hiding down there, and now I have tricked them out."
As Lin Yi said this, he swung the monster away with all his strength, and then shot it, causing it to disintegrate in mid-air.
The dim yellow flame burned along Lin Yi's fingers, slowly but without any sign of stopping, it began to spread upwards along Lin Yi's fingers, dissolving his flesh, and even his bones turned into a pool of mud.
"Senior?!"
Jianzi's eyes widened, and at this moment he looked extremely panicked.
"There's no time to get hung up on such trivial matters. We've already wasted three minutes. Speed up and run. The shockwave will arrive in two minutes at most."
But Lin Yi himself seemed to be completely unaware of the pain in his arm. He turned around without hesitation and started running wildly, speeding up towards the ruined research institute in front of the chain.
The special forces teams behind also moved forward without hesitation. Although Shirou Emiya shouted, "Mr. Lin Yi, are you okay?", Lin Yi, who was running in front, did not respond at all, but just ran even faster.
hum-
The sound of the vibration is becoming louder and louder.
Jianzi was pushed by the special forces behind him to speed up, and fell off the iron chain gasping for breath, and fell on the bumpy concrete ground outside the research institute.
The rest of the people also jumped down one by one. Among them, Shirou Emiya rolled over after falling and quickly ran to Lin Yi's side. At this time, Lin Yi, who had stopped, had already taken out a tactical knife with his unburned left hand and directly cut off his wrist, which was mostly dissolved by the invisible flame, and almost half of his forearm.
