The End of the Extreme Dao: I Planted a Sacred Tree and Gained Immortality

Chapter 41 Vision
Huo Ying walked up the stairs.

An abrupt turn.

In the hall, everything remained the same, nothing had changed.

"I seem to hear a voice?"

Standing on the stairs on the second floor, Huo Ying carefully observed the hall from a bird's-eye view.

"It's so quiet here."

The absence of abnormalities is the biggest abnormality.

Huo Ying not only did not relax, but became more vigilant.

"It seems that Wang Kai lied. Elsa and Luna are not here."

There are no yang stones here, no signs of burning poplar trees, and no sunlight. It will definitely become a paradise for zombies.

Therefore, Wang Kai’s cry before his death was a trap. His purpose was to let the expeller die here.

He even deceived his own son Wang Tianhua.

However, Wang Kai had seen the number of expellers and the blacks' defensive capabilities, so why did he still lead people here?

In other words, there are extremely dangerous things in the Civic Center, and even the black team of evictors may be wiped out here.

Huo Ying looked at the open door and began to have the idea of retreating.

Bones.

The sound of pebbles rolling was heard.

A ball of paper rolled from the second-floor corridor to Huo Ying's feet.

Huo Ying immediately lit the rocket and shot it around like a torch.

The darkness was illuminated, but there was nothing in the corridor.

Huo Ying stepped on the paper ball and slowly crushed it open.

There was a stone wrapped in a ball of paper, and a row of small words were written on the ball of paper.

"I received it and wrote the next one. Put the Yang Stone where you are standing. Trust me, and you will live."

The handwriting is new and the ink hasn't dried yet.

Huo Ying looked around again. It was empty, with no one and no sound.

Unleashing Wood Release and Lightning Release at the same time, Huo Ying created a piece of charcoal, wrote "N" on a piece of paper, then wrapped the Yang Stone with paper and threw it to the position opposite him.

Huo Ying stared at the changes in the paper ball closely. After about a minute, the paper ball trembled, and Huo Ying instantly threw a wooden stick in the direction of the paper ball.

Ding! The wooden stick hit the wall but didn't hit anything.

"What a weird thing this is."

Seeing that his attack was ineffective, Huo Ying used Wood Release to create wooden branches, and controlled the branches to tear the paper apart from a distance.

Sure enough, there were a few more lines of words on the note.

"You can't see me, and I can't see you."

“Once we entered the Civic Center, our vision was blinded. Everything was an illusion.”

"I am infected. I am particularly sensitive to changes in the air. The oxygen level has decreased and the carbon dioxide level has increased. That's why I noticed someone coming in."

"We should be close, but I can't find you. Maybe my senses are distorted too."

"Where are you now?"

Huo Ying frowned as he read the information on the note. After thinking for a moment, he replied, "I'm in the lobby on the first floor."

The paper ball remained still for a long time, and then it trembled again after a while.

"It seems that space has also been distorted."

"I threw paper balls on the third floor, the second floor, and the lobby."

"From what I can see, it's the note on the third floor that's moving. You should be at the entrance to the corridor on the third floor."

"Don't lie to me. This is related to whether we can survive."

"Are you in the corridor on the third floor?"

Huo Ying did not reply, but retreated cautiously to the first floor.

After searching the lobby on the first floor, Huo Ying found a ball of paper under the table.

When the paper ball was opened, it was indeed the first sentence written on it: "Write down the next sentence after receiving it, put the stone where you stand, believe me, and you will live."

Huo Ying thought about it, picked up the paper ball on the first floor, and walked to the second floor.

"Now look and see which layer of paper ball I took over."

After writing on the new ball of paper, Huo Ying threw it away.

This time, the paper ball was silent for a long time again.

"It's from the second floor. The one in the lobby on the first floor is still there, but you took the one on the second floor."

"So, is it that the space is also misplaced? We can't see or touch it because the space is misplaced?"

Huo Ying looked at the words on the paper ball and began to ponder.

If the person who wrote this is not lying, it means that the space-time of the two people is distorted. Huo Ying's second floor is the other party's third floor, and Huo Ying's first floor is the other party's second floor.

In other words, if Huo Ying went to the third floor now, he might overlap with that person.

Without acting rashly, Huo Ying first looked towards the gate. The sunlight was still bright. Then he turned around and stood in the corridor on the second floor, looking out the window. It was pitch black outside the window.

"...It seems that what the paper ball said is true. Space is really distorted."

Huo Ying glanced at the mirror at the door. He now suspected that the moment he pushed open the door, he entered the world in the mirror.

"We have to work together to find a way out of here."

"Otherwise, we will both be trapped and die in this world."

Huo Ying stared at the line of words for a while, and without replying, he walked into the second-floor corridor with a torch.

There were many rooms on the second floor. Huo Ying used a torch to illuminate the doorplates one by one and walked to a room with the word "Archive Room" written on it.

Using Wood and Earth escape techniques to make a key, Huo Ying easily opened the door.

There were no windows inside and it was pitch black.

Huo Ying stretched out his hand and touched the wall.

Earth escape technique: swamp escape technique.

Huo Ying controlled the output of chakra, and a palm-sized piece of mud appeared on the solid wall. Huo Ying inserted a poplar wood torch into it and used it as a lamp.

As Huo Ying installed fire lamps on all four walls of the room, the archive room became lit up.

Fortunately, during the doomsday, not many people went to the archives room to rummage around, so the archives room remained as tidy as before, and Huo Ying found cabinet A easily.

In the cabinet, the partitions were filled with files and documents. Huo Ying found the partition numbered 0277 and pulled out all the documents nearby.

It seemed that many documents had been taken away by the investigation team, and the remaining document bags were very thin.

Huo Ying pulled them out one by one to check. The top one was 0276, which contained a stack of names, each with hundreds of names, all of which were crossed out.

0277 was thinner, Huo Ying pulled it out, and there were only three sheets of paper inside.

These are the three onboarding tables.

The name filled in the first form is Bai Qianzhi, an expert and tutor in synthetic biology research at Blue Gene.

There are photos next to it.

The person in the photo is beautiful, but has a sour face.

Huo Ying recognized this person; she was Sister Bai who lived with Zhang Yuqi.

The second photo was of a very young looking girl. Her age was not written in her profile. Judging from her appearance, Huo Ying suspected that the girl was just a high school student.

Liu Tong, sample pre-processing specialist at Blue Gene.

The last one is written by Huo Ying.

Huo Ying also looks like that in the photo.

Huo Ying, animal and plant breeder at Blue Gene.

It turns out that I am an employee of the Blue Gene Factory, and so is Sister Bai!
Huo Ying took out the Yang Stone from his arms, used a poplar wood torch to roast it red, and waited for a while, but the Yang Stone did not change.

"The world in the mirror is just different in time and space, but the objects should be the same."

"There are no zombies around to interfere. These documents should be real."

Huo Ying put the document into the wooden armor, stood up and walked back to the corridor on the second floor, picking up the paper ball on the ground again.
