Chapter 185 Chen Shanshan's Evolution, Dark Realm and the Eternal Night Empire
Chen Shanshan had actually anticipated that a third-order distortion king would appear in the trial challenge.

Because Lin Feng had already told her before starting the cross-level evolution.

The trial of the spiritual world will use the most impressive scene in memory as the challenge content.

Moreover, the way to break through the trial is to awaken the superpowers for the second time and further develop the potential of superpowers.

Lin Feng has verified this point many times on himself and other evolvers.

In the negative third floor of the ruins, Chen Shanshan, as Lin Feng's personal bodyguard, witnessed the battle between Bai Ye, the leader of the Salvation Army, and the third-order distortion king.

The latter's strength is certainly not at the level of a third-order king, and it doesn't even have one-tenth of the strength. Distortion itself is a kind of heavy pollution, and it is naturally impossible to maintain the same level of combat effectiveness.

The third-order aberration is just Zong Shiyue's toy.

Contains only a small number of third-order cells.

But even so, the strength of the third-level deformer is comparable to that of the middle and late second-level. Coupled with its abnormal recovery ability, it can fight back and forth against Bai Ye who is not good at fighting.

If this third-order early-stage deformer encounters a level 29 evolver with combat or destructive abilities, it will be completely powerless to resist.

So they were no match for the second-level zombie wolves, and the train station became a bridgehead of pollution for thousands of years.

But at the moment, Chen Shanshan is only at level 19. Even though she is proficient in close combat, there is still a big gap in speed and strength between her and the Distortion King in front of her.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the titanium spear that he never leaves behind has also entered the trial challenge, and the handy tool is still there.

As her spiritual world became more and more complete, Chen Shanshan's consciousness became increasingly clear, and she gradually regained perception and control of her body.

At the same time, the third-order distortion king who was emitting a powerful aura in front of him also became active from his static state.

I could feel its rapid breathing, full of murderous intent and madness, as if it would pounce on me in the next second.

Chen Shanshan frowned. After a short period of silence, she was mentally prepared. She was no longer as frightened as when she just woke up, and began to think about how to deal with the situation.

The speed and strength of the Distortion King surpassed hers, but his defense was very low. The restored environment at this moment was exactly the negative fifth floor of the ruins. Except for the lack of teammates, he was also wearing a full set of armor.

Therefore, the defensive ability far exceeds that of the Distortion King.

At least after being attacked by the other party, you still have the ability to fight back.

What Chen Shanshan needs to do is to make the deformed humanoid monster in front of her lose its ability to move as much as possible after making a move, so that it cannot consume her by relying on its speed advantage.

Now Chen Shanshan is no longer in the fourteenth level state. She has evolved to the nineteenth level, and her strength is infinitely close to the twenty level, with an ultimate strength of ten tons.

Combined with the titanium alloy spear in his hand, it is enough to cause serious damage to the unprotected deformed creature.

The neck is a good attack site, especially the cervical vertebrae at the back, which connects the head and body of the Deformed King. As long as you can stab it with one shot, you can gain the upper hand.

After formulating an offensive strategy in just a few seconds, Chen Shanshan made a prompt decision as soon as she was able to move again. Like a cannonball, she rushed towards the deformed being not far away who had not yet reacted.

The latter's speed reaches over 100 meters per second, while as a level 19 evolver, Chen Shanshan's maximum speed is only close to 100 meters per second.

So there is no escape.

We can only act first!
But the faster third-order distortion king still responded after coming to his senses.

At this time, Chen Shanshan was less than five meters away from it, with the titanium gun in her hand pointing directly at the neck below its head.

Out of fear of death, the Deformed King instinctively reacted to survive. He shook his body and shifted his upper body in one hundredth of a second.

With a body over three meters tall, he dodged sideways very flexibly.

Chen Shanshan reacted in time, raised her wrist, and locked the gun tip firmly on the target.

However, it still deviated a bit, and the gun tip finally pierced the right shoulder of the deformed monster.

Under the huge impact force, its entire arm was torn apart in an instant, and even the skin and bones were picked off and flew out.

The Distortion King also used this opportunity to survive by cutting off his arm.

Although the severe pain from the broken arm rushed straight to the brain nerves, it still made the most correct and timely counterattack, waving its sturdy and powerful left claw and slapping the human in front of it hard.

Just because of his incomplete body, which made his posture unstable, the force of this claw was reduced from tens of tons to more than ten tons.

Only Chen Shanshan was knocked away twenty or thirty meters.

When she smashed the wall beside her and fell among the rubble, her internal organs were almost ruptured, and she was spitting blood with a face full of pain.

Four bloody wounds appeared on the armor hit by the claws, twenty centimeters long and three or four centimeters wide, which was shocking.

But it was also because of the protection of the armor that Chen Shanshan had a chance to breathe.

Otherwise, that claw strike would have torn her in half right away.

The third-order mutant, which was also severely injured, did not rush forward to continue the attack and make a finishing move.

After losing his right arm, his sense of balance was affected due to the deformation, so he couldn't move fast and was easily attacked by the enemy.

So it chose to repair its broken limb first, and then staggered towards its flying broken hand.

The blood that had spurted out of the torn wound on his right arm quickly solidified and formed a scab under the powerful recovery ability of the third-level cells.

When the deformed monster picked up its flying right arm and reattached it to its right arm, Chen Shanshan also endured the pain, awakened her body functions, left the collapsed house, and hid in a building nearby.

If the sneak attack or forced attack fails, the chance of killing the opponent next time is almost zero.

But Chen Shanshan would not surrender and lie down waiting to die.

What we need to do now is to hide ourselves as much as possible, delay time, find the weaknesses of the Distortion King, and accumulate combat experience for the resurrected second life.

Apart from his own skills, the only thing he could rely on was the auxiliary ability that had awakened in his body.

It was simply because it was of no use in the ruins at the time. After all, the aberrations had already adapted to the dark environment and did not rely on vision to move or hunt.

After evolving to level 19, Chen Shanshan's blinding ability has also been greatly improved. It can now take effect within a hundred meters, and the coverage range is no longer just the eyes, but can cover the target's entire head.

This also means that it can block four of the target's five senses, including sight, hearing, smell, and less importantly, taste.

Except for the sense of touch, Chen Shanshan has been able to deprive the target of all perception of the outside world.

But the above effects are for normal human evolutionists. What she is facing now is a deformed being with no fixed appearance.

Chen Shanshan tried her best to calm herself down and not make any noise. At the same time, she secretly used her perception ability to lock onto the monster's figure in the darkness.

The third-order deformer sniffed the air. After years of darkness, his vision had greatly deteriorated. Even his eyeballs were white. He could only distinguish changes in light and could hardly see the shapes of external objects.

Correspondingly, its other sensory organs, such as hearing, smell and touch, are greatly enhanced.

Although the currently constructed trial world does not have too much poison and mucus, unlike the real ruins' negative third layer, which provides many chemical pheromones to enhance the perception of the Distortion King...

But the fresh bloodstains on the ground can point it to the approximate location of the target.

So within a few seconds, after most of the deformed bodies had recovered, they found the location where Chen Shanshan was hiding.

The latter also noticed it and secretly used his supernatural power to cause blinding and shielding effects.

Chen Shanshan's eyes turned black, and a surge of energy surged out of her body. Then the space where the deformed body's head was located was shrouded in black mist.

The black mist did not exist in reality, as if it was overflowing from the surrounding space.

It has no fixed shape, just like dropping ink into a glass of water, it spreads out wildly.

But the impact it brought was unexpectedly good.

The deformed creature, whose head was shielded by black energy, stood there in a daze. Then, as if it had lost its direction, it stretched out its arms and groped around.

Seeing this, Chen Shanshan's face lit up with joy.

It hadn't been long since she evolved to the late first stage, only a few hours.

The experiment on supernatural powers was just a casual release of Ding Yi when they were in the car together, and there was no detailed investigation.

Unleashing superpowers consumes a lot of energy. It takes a toll on both your physical and mental strength. If you maintain it for just a few seconds, you'll notice a noticeable decline in your energy.

It is necessary to replenish food of the same level in time to recover from the overdraft state.

So Chen Shanshan didn't have time to conduct actual combat drills. She only knew that the shielding effect she released could cover a space the size of a basketball.

Compared to the size of a ping-pong ball when it first evolved, it has increased dozens of times.

But what Chen Shanshan didn't expect was that the shielding effect of the supernatural power had also been greatly improved.

If I had known to use my supernatural powers at the beginning, I might have been able to gain the upper hand in the second attack.

Chen Shanshan was thinking about attacking again after her resurrection, but at this moment, the head of the deformed body, which was originally shrouded in black energy, suddenly surged.

Then, cracks appeared on the chest and arms of the Deformed King.

A pair of eyeballs, a mouth with a sticking out tongue, as well as nostrils, ears and other organs and tissues grew out of it.

The blocked senses of vision, hearing, smell, etc., only took about ten seconds to grow back in other parts of the deformed body and were strengthened a second time.

Chen Shanshan frowned. The high-level deformed creatures were indeed difficult to deal with. Although they were just flesh and blood, their strength lay in their flesh and blood bodies.

Their control over body cells is unprecedented, and they can evolve and replicate different tissue cells without restraint, forming deformed organs.

As his senses returned, the skin on the deformed body's chest twisted, gradually forming a blurry human face. After a painful howl, he turned and looked towards the corner of the room where Chen Shanshan was hiding.

The next second, it turned into a wild beast, pounced on all fours, and with its body pierced by the titanium spear, it waved its two thick arms and sharp claws, tearing the target to pieces.

When she woke up again, Chen Shanshan took a deep breath.

The scene and feeling of the last tragic death were still vivid in her mind. The pain stimulated her brain nerves, and fear and trembling spread throughout her body.

Fortunately, in the end, he used the titanium gun and risked his life to kill the Deformed King, picking out his head and spine and destroying his regenerative ability.

Then the monster also gathered before his eyes again.

This time, Chen Shanshan did not hesitate at all. The moment both sides were resurrected, she used her supernatural power to lock onto the target, and then swung the titanium gun to kill it.

The fear of pain and death gave Chen Shanshan a strong sense of security and full motivation when she was killing her target.

The pleasure of foreseeing the threat and nipping it in the bud accelerated her movements. She stabbed the Distortion King's head with the sharp titanium gun before the Distortion King could react.

Wipe the entire head off the neck!

In order to prevent the deformed monster from regenerating, Chen Shanshan began to further cut the headless giant corpse that fell to the ground after retrieving the titanium gun.

The human face that appeared on its chest was split into two halves from top to bottom before it could completely condense into shape. Then it was swung up and its limbs were cut off.

Finally, crush both sides of the spine, which are rich in evolved cells that control the nervous system throughout the body.

Without the coordination of the third-order cells, the King of Distortion will naturally have no chance of resurrection.

After completing this cross-level sneak attack and assassination, Chen Shanshan was already sweating all over and was more than half exhausted.

It was mainly the full release of her superpowers, coupled with a tense explosive state, which was almost the limit of what she could do when she evolved to level nineteen.

With the death of the Distortion King, the black energy that originally enveloped his head suddenly dissipated uncontrollably and formed a black door.

Chen Shanshan walked to the door and felt the energy behind the door, which was the same as the supernatural power in her body.

At this moment, an inexplicable emotion surged in my heart.

A sense of doubt arises spontaneously.

Because Chen Shanshan discovered that her special ability didn't seem to have changed much. She was able to kill the third-level deformed monster entirely by relying on her own observation and combat experience.

Confused, Chen Shanshan turned around and looked at the trial space, which was gradually collapsing because the challenge was over.

The girl hesitated for a moment, then finally stepped into the black door.

At the same time, in the wolf armor chariot in the real world, Lin Feng instinctively sensed a hint of abnormality and potential danger, and his nerves tensed up as he entered combat mode, while adjusting the power armor to the highest performance combat mode.

The next moment, the girl lying on the chair bed suddenly opened her eyes.

Those eyes were as black as ink, and suddenly a strong breath was released, and the entire rock horse chariot fell into darkness, as if everything no longer existed.

Lin Feng, who was enveloped in it, lost all sense of the outside world on the spot.

Including various auxiliary instruments on power armor.

Infrared cameras, night vision goggles, motion capture, etc., are all in a frozen state at this moment.

Lin Feng frowned and his whole body was tense.

This is much more dangerous than the situation described by Father Suan. Apart from thinking with his brain, he has lost all perception of the outside world.

Just like a vegetable...

At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared.

In the endless darkness, a figure condensed.

Zong Shiyue's image was like a ghost, appearing in front of Lin Feng in a translucent state.

This was the only thing he could see.

"Do you feel like you're falling into an abyss, into an endless hell?"

Zong Shiyue's words were like the sound of the wind, floating in Lin Feng's mind, sometimes far away and sometimes near.

Lin Feng nodded silently, and asked in his heart:
"There seems to be something wrong with Chen Shanshan's ability. This is much more severe than the previous shielding. I can't even feel anything now. Only my brain can still function..."

Zong Shiyue smiled and continued:

"This isn't some kind of shielding ability, and sensory deprivation is only an external manifestation."

"The energy she releases can form a dark region, where all visible matter is sealed, including the flesh and blood organs that form perception and material instruments."

Lin Feng was stunned:
"Dark Realm? What's the explanation?"

"Is it the same as the firearms ability, which was already famous in the old Earth era?"

Zong Shiyue nodded:

"I'm not that famous, but I'm considered a rising star among energy-related superpowers."

"In the last few years, many refugees who didn't get a place in the asylum camps have been migrating north."

"Because there are a number of planetary engines under construction in the polar regions, there are also a number of supporting underground shelters."

"Among these refugees, a third-stage early-stage being emerged, possessing an energy ability called the Dark Domain. His entire body was enveloped in a layer of dark energy."

"It is rumored that when he appears, the whole world will be shrouded in darkness, just like the arrival of night."

"I only met him once. Back then, with his initial strength, he was able to face three mid-stage kings at the same time and hold his own. As a result, he gained control of a large shelter."

"If you've paid attention to the distribution of forces I mentioned before, you should remember that in the far north, above 60 degrees north latitude, there exists a mysterious ancient nation called the Eternal Night Empire..."

Lin Feng reacted quickly and said in a surprised tone:

"You mean to say that the Eternal Night Empire was built by this third-level king who possesses the power of the Dark Realm?"

Zong Shiyue nodded, and then said something shocking again:

"According to the intelligence I've gathered, from the few fragments of information about the Eternal Night Empire, I've inferred that this Night Emperor, who still lives to this day, is most likely from the present era..."

"The god who is still awake!"

"That is, an existence above the third level!"
