This Terra is a little weird.

"Mr. Silver Gray, I'm just about to quit smoking, you..."

"Oh, quit smoking. Kalan Trade has recently launched a new smoking cessation chewing gum. Mr. Luo Chen, are you interested in trying it?"

"of course."

"Then I'll ask them to send some to you later."

"Boss Yin is very generous, but I still care about the commission you gave us."

"It's like this. What happened in the villa also happened in many other places. The other party seemed to be attacking indiscriminately. The cuts on the victims were the same every time, but there were no signs of fighting."

"Is there a pattern to the killer's attacks?"

"Yes, it is attacking the buildings in the mobile city in a triangular pattern. We have found the next location, but it seems that the enemy always appears at 3pm."

Luo Chen glanced at his watch: "It's one o'clock in the afternoon. Let's rush to the scene now."

"Want to go explore the scene? My people have evacuated the entire apartment building, all twelve floors, checked inside and out, and surrounded the apartment."

"I think if the murderer's Originium skills are special, no matter how we arrange it, we won't be able to find it, right?"

"Then I will withdraw everyone?"

"Well, don't leave anyone in the apartment. Catch two Originium bugs and use them as targets."

Then within two hours, the people from Kalan Trading immediately evacuated the apartment area, caught a few Originium worms and stuffed them into the apartment.

Afterwards, Luo Chen, W, Mudstone and the elite team of Catachan Security Company prepared not far away.

At 3:05, they burst into the apartment, with Mudstone leading the way, and the others clearing the rooms in turn.

But they only found the chopped-up bodies of the Originium worms, and still no trace of the murderer.

"Report, the second floor has been cleaned."

"A-1, prepare to advance to the third floor."

"A-1 received."

Luo Chen and others stood behind Mudstone in a tactical manner, with their guns pointed at every position.

"Ready, go."

Mudstone began to move towards the third floor, and the team members at the back helped her hold the gun.

After joining Catachan Security Company, both W and Mudrock need to receive tactical training, but Luo Chen will not erase anyone's style.

For every team member, receiving standard training is a process of becoming familiar with other team members and being able to cooperate skillfully, although Mudrock's strength does not require cooperation from others in combat.

But in the end she chose to receive training with others. In her own words, the combat stability is high and there are more options for completing tasks.

Mudstone knocked on the door and rushed in. The member in the middle of the team opened another door, conducted a tactical look, and stepped in.

Luo Chen's hair stood on end at this moment. He suddenly felt a huge sense of threat. He immediately pushed the team member to the innermost side of the room.

Then blood splattered, the entire arm was cut off in an instant, and a large amount of blood spurted out from the broken arm.

Luo Chen immediately used his psychic power to stop the bleeding, and released psychic lightning at the place in front of him that looked like a shattered mirror.

The moment the lightning touched the broken part, a shock wave suddenly erupted, blowing everyone away. The team members who were caught off guard were shocked and vomited blood.

At this moment, Luo Chen felt severe pain. The surge of adrenaline and the use of spiritual power could not resist this pain.

"Retreat! Those who can get up should pull others to retreat!"

Mudstone staggered, picked up the two seriously injured team members and ran downstairs. W put away the laser rifle and helped the more seriously injured downstairs.

She kept glancing at Luo Chen, panicking when she saw his bleeding broken arm and bloodshot eyes.

Then a few team members at the rear shouted, alerting others that more fragmentation was occurring.

The sonic boom of the bullet sounded in the apartment, and then there was no sound when the bullet hit the shattered area, it turned into iron powder and scattered down.

Luo Chen immediately called on everyone else to retreat. Seeing that the situation was urgent, Mudstone immediately threw out his hammer and smashed a big hole in the wall.

Then she threw everyone out one by one.

W wanted to take Luo Chen away, but he pushed him away. Now the only thing that can stop these strange phenomena is psychic power, but it seems that it will cause a strong resonance.

Luo Chen couldn't let W stay here, so he used his psychic power to knock her unconscious, and Mudstone threw her out.

"Mud Rock! Retreat!"

The violent lightning instantly struck the shattering phenomenon, and then a powerful suction force sucked Luo Chen and the mudrock that had just begun to retreat, and then exploded with a loud bang.

The entire apartment building collapsed, and rubble and debris fell all over the place.

When W woke up, she found that the people from Kalan Trading were desperately moving rubble. She looked around and only saw her own commandos, but not Mudyan and Luo Chen.

She realized something and ran out immediately, not caring about the injuries caused by the shock wave.

Silver Gray stopped her in front of the ruins: "Ms. W, don't go any further. We are already digging as hard as we can."

W didn't want to hear what he said, so he pushed away Yinhui's hand, snatched the worker's shovel and started digging.

She shoveled hard while crying.

I know that idiot will be fine.

But I'm just afraid, especially afraid.

W didn't know what he was feeling, he just put all his strength into digging.

"Fool, idiot, idiot, you have to hold on! Wait for me!"

Under the ruins, Luo Chen opened his eyes with difficulty. He pulled out the fluorescent stick with trembling hands, broke the chemical tube inside, and shook it a few times. The red light immediately filled the entire dark space.

There was also Mudstone lying nearby, but she was in a very bad condition.

Luo Chen looked around and saw that he and Mudyan were in a stable and safe triangular area, but the place was small and he didn't know whether the two of them would have enough oxygen to last until rescue arrived.

Luo Chen slowly pulled his foot out from under the stone slab. It was covered in blood, but the bones were not broken, which was a good thing.

He slowly crawled towards Mudstone and took out an emergency flashlight to check Mudstone's injuries.

Her head seemed to have been hit by a stone and was bleeding. There were steel nails in her shoulder and other injuries.

Luo Chen took out the first aid kit. Due to limited conditions, he could only apply some hemostatic powder on Mudstone and wrapped half of her head with gauze. He didn't dare to move the nail on her shoulder at all, as who knew which blood vessel it had pierced.

Mudstone used her Originium skills before being hit by the explosion, but when the collapse occurred, she fell into a coma due to the influence of the special sound wave frequency. The shock wave caused serious damage to both Luo Chen and Mudstone.

His hands are shaking uncontrollably now, and it seems like his nerves are damaged.

He bandaged up other places that needed emergency treatment. Luo Chen couldn't use any of his spiritual energy at all. He even had difficulty stopping the bleeding from the wound on his foot.

However, the physique of both people was not that of normal Terran humans, and the blood soon coagulated automatically, blocking the wound. Luo Chen felt his arm itchy, as if it was repairing itself.

He looked at Mudyan's condition and found that her breathing had stabilized. He gave her an injection of antibiotics just in case. After all, there were still several steel nails piercing her body. Mudyan was still very weak and if she got infected, it would be fatal.

He collapsed on the ground, trying not to move, to reduce his oxygen consumption.

Fortunately, sound soon came from the ruins above.

Luo Chen immediately picked up a stone and hit a steel plate above so that the rescuers would know his location.

Then there was a commotion and a ray of light came out.

"Idiot! Are you in there?!"

"I'm... Mudstone and I were injured. We lost a lot of blood. Mudstone's condition is very bad... cough cough cough."

"Right away! Right away!"

Chapter 118 Collapse

Mudstone woke up in the hospital affiliated with Kalan Trade. Her injuries had all healed. When she opened her eyes, she felt a little blurry.

She looked at the bed next to her where Luo Chen was lying. His arm had grown back and his other injuries had basically recovered, but he was still in a coma.

At this time, the door opened and W came in with a kettle and put it down.

"Mud Rock, are you awake?"

"Well, Miss W, thank you for rescuing us."

W said nothing. He sat on Luo Chen's bed with his arms folded and fixed his hair.

Mudstone opened his mouth, then closed it again, but finally said: "Ms. W, do you love Mr. Luo Chen very much?"

W looked at Luo Chen's face with his chin in his hand and poked him mischievously: "What do you think?"

"...I thought Miss W always hated Mr. Luo Chen?"

"You're right, of course I hate this idiot. We've known each other for so long, but he only responded to me recently. Of course I hate him."

"...Ms. W, when did you start..."

"You should know the answer to this question yourself. His existence itself has a strong appeal to the Sarkaz. Wasn't it because of the influence of this idiot that so many mercenaries who fought on their own were willing to accept unified command?"

What W said is indeed true, the Sarkaz people will obey the stronger ones, but Luo Chen is an exception. His attraction to the Sarkaz people and the reason for his attraction are difficult to explain.

But it is undeniable that if a Sarkaz lives with Luo Chen for a long time, an invisible bond will be formed between the two, transcending the emotional relationship between friends, family, and lovers, seemingly fragile but unbreakable.

Of course, different Sarkaz people have different resistance to this influence. Some may be willing to obey Luo Chen's command within a few days, while some may not be affected much even for their entire lives.

This does not differentiate between men and women, although men are more resistant to the effect.

And W might be the person who was most affected. Perhaps it was because she saw a trace of Theresa's shadow in Luo Chen, at least she thought so.

And Luo Chen continued to influence her through unintentional telepathy, and this process lasted for several years, even though neither of them noticed.

But in the end, they both found that the other's existence had become indispensable.

Before, every time he adjusted W, Luo Chen would feel a sense of emptiness.

W had long realized that Luo Chen seemed to be emitting some special signal unintentionally, which continued to affect all the Sarkaz people. She herself could not predict what the final result of this kind of mental control would be.

But she did not resist. Instead, she felt curious, which eventually led to today's result. W and Luo Chen confirmed their relationship.

Mudstone lowered her head. She also understood what W meant, or rather, her condition was actually the same as W's. This kind of mental control was more addictive than drugs.

Niyan wanted to leave several times, but stayed every time. She admitted that fighting with her own heart was undoubtedly the most difficult thing, especially when the influence of the outside world was greater than her self-control.

If W had acted a little slower, perhaps she would be the one being intimate with Luo Chen now?

Mudstone shook off the thoughts in his mind and when he saw W, he inexplicably felt jealous.

This emotion had never been felt before, but Mudstone never wanted to express it.

He's already messed up enough, isn't he?

If I can't control myself, then it must be even harder for him, right?

After all, he couldn't explain it to Miss Tallulah and Miss Alina, right?

But, I really envy Miss W.

Be able to pursue your own feelings without any scruples.

Mudstone put on his clothes, said hello and walked out.

W sighed, thought for a long time, then stood up and chased after the mudstone.

Nearing evening, Luo Chen finally woke up. His consciousness was still fuzzy, but he was very clear about one thing, which he had to do now.

He was going to talk to Tallulah on the phone right now.

Luo Chen's nervous system was still in the recovery stage. He climbed onto the wheelchair with difficulty, walked out of the ward, asked the nurse for his cell phone, and then returned to the ward to dial the number.

After a while of music, the phone finally beeped and connected, and then Tallulah's voice came.

"Ah Chen, I'm sorry. I wanted to call you, but I'm so busy here that I don't know where to go. I'll call you later."

"Wait, Tallulah."

"...Achen, why are you so weak? What happened?"

"It's okay. Listen carefully. We can't run or defend the eastern front now. We must gather all our forces to attack."

"What? Ah Chen, are you serious?"

"Yes, Tallulah, a spatial collapse has occurred in Kjerag. The earth doesn't have much time left. We must attack immediately!"

"Wait, Ah Chen, please explain it more clearly. I can't understand you like this."
