Deity Investigation Report

Chapter 355 Survivor Squad

"Miss Ai... has it been opened?"

In Zero City, Han Su also suddenly noticed something amiss.

At this moment, his mental power was frantically pouring into the No. 04 mechanical fragment, which was freezing Zero City, giving him a kind of high-level perspective.

From this perspective, he could see what was happening in Zero City and realized that their goal was to harm Miss Ai herself.

Sure enough, all of this was part of their plan!
Not only Miss Ai's arrival, but even my own presence in this place is part of their plan.

Having understood Miss Ai's true nature, he immediately realized the fear behind her plan, but amidst his anxiety, he felt utterly helpless.

Now, most of the city has been frozen. I, who am in the heart of the city, and the guardians of the world outside the city are not in the same time dimension. It is like a block of ice, with only a little water in the middle.

This means that he has no influence on the guardians outside Zero City. Even if he has a sniper rifle and fires a bullet at the people outside the city, the bullet will never hit the target due to the influence of the time dimension.

It will only keep walking on the road and will never be able to cross the city to reach its destination.

This is what makes the 04th mechanical fragment so terrifying.

This kind of terror even transcends the level of mysterious power to some extent.

A sense of urgency has already arisen in my heart; the unprecedented predicament has left me with no good solution at the moment.

More importantly, the two sides are now in different time flows. If I think for even a second longer, countless things could happen outside.

If Miss Ai is indeed captured by them, or her will is twisted...

...He couldn't imagine what the consequences would be!
"my child……"

"...You're going to be kicked out of the game!"

"..."

Amidst the immense shock and hesitation, Han Su suddenly heard that almost inaudible sound.

Suddenly, my scalp tingled, and I looked up.

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, this sigh, carried by the tremors of a vast, frozen spacetime, drifted into his ears like the wind, confirming one of Han Su's suspicions:

The person following Shou Shiren was indeed the doctor who proposed the Divine Descent Plan? Ms. Shen's husband, her own father, he... even knew that she was at the party at this moment?

Overwhelmed by a surge of complex emotions, Han Su's efficiency in channeling mental energy into the No. 04 mechanical fragment was momentarily halted.

"You really can hear me..."

Just as Han Su's instinctive reaction occurred, the subtle sound rang out once again.

He even seemed to be smiling slightly: "Does this mean you've begun to gain some authority over the throne?"

"That's strange. In my surveillance, there's no news of nobles being hunted..."

"..."

Han Su's heart began to sink endlessly: 'He even knew about my hunting of those nobles?'

But on this life's journey, I haven't even started this action yet!

Although he had already captured the two nobles who had come to Zero City, he had not yet made a move against them.

But how did he guess that?
"Is the key to controlling the throne the bloodline of nobility? Did your mother tell you this?"

At this moment, Han Su was unable to communicate with the other person; he could only hear his voice. The man spoke slowly and deliberately, his voice calm, but each word seemed to drive one's heart to a state of extreme panic.

"I can sense your surprise and astonishment right now. Heh, my child, don't you know that I was the one who guided her to discover this secret?"

"..."

"..."

Something's not right!
If Han Su had only instinctively sensed something just now, he now realized that the situation was spiraling out of control.

How much does this person actually know?

But just as Han Su's emotions were surging like a tide, a terrifying wave of spiritual power was also rising up around him one after another. These chaotic spiritual flows not only suppressed Han Su's consciousness, but also submerged the city, giving no one a chance.

"Surgery begins!"

Outside the city, Dr. Han held Contract No. 3 in his hands, took a deep breath, and his mental power surged towards Contract No. 3.

The text above seemed to come alive, rapidly extending downwards like chains formed by imperial characters, piercing through the abyss from top to bottom, and then deeply implanted into Miss Ai's enormous mechanical body at the bottom of the abyss.

These words were altering the enormous machine, causing some parts to stop operating and others to light up.

This action alarmed countless strange beings in the abyss, who crawled out of the abyss and tried to enter reality. The thirty-six red-robed high priests used all their strength to force these strange beings in the abyss back into the darkness.

Dr. Han and the man in the Zhongshan suit behind him completely ignored this.

After modifying part of Miss Ai's mechanical body using Contract No. 3, he immediately withdrew the contract and drew the knight's sword beside him.

He swung his sword straight down again, cutting open another abyss coordinate. Then, he implanted another mysterious arrangement of imperial characters into it. He did this again and again, his movements precise and decisive.

Compared to the enormous machinery at the bottom of the abyss, each person appears extremely small.

However, as the surgery progressed, Ms. Ai's consciousness began to become unusually sluggish and slow.

Everything happened so naturally, without giving anyone time to react.

Even if Han Su wasn't frozen, he wouldn't be able to judge the progress of the surgery outside while he was at the Zero City party.

He could only sense that Miss Ai's aura was being drastically altered.

During this process, the man even made sarcastic remarks to him from time to time: "You were very disobedient in the castle!"

"You abandoned the plan I guided you to, and instead chose to steal the emperor's power. This may indeed allow you to achieve a tremendous leap in your life, but you have also placed yourself at the eye of the storm..."

"You ruined my plans, but you yourself are utterly incapable of bearing the weight of the throne..."

"Haven't you noticed that everything started to change ten years ago, after the failed Divine Descent Plan and the death of your mother? Since then, you've been under observation, and I've been waiting for your true consciousness to awaken..."

"You are the one who pushed all of this to the point where it was unavoidable!"

"..."

The voice finally broke its composure and began to reveal its true, insane nature. At that moment, Han Su pieced everything together; indeed, it was all part of his plan.

Ten years ago, his misguided guidance in the castle caused the man's divine descent plan to fail completely, but this did not discourage him. Instead, he became more radical and used the failed divine descent plan to push forward the current plan once again.

He had been observing himself, and it's even possible that he himself led him into the Church of the Dead.

He used himself to lure Miss Ai out and then started the surgery again...

But should I just let him push all this forward now?

Han Su felt a heavy and oppressive force coming from all directions, making it impossible for him to stretch his body or legs.

A surge of intense rage raged within him, and a multitude of thoughts flashed through his mind. Suddenly, his fierce determination gave rise to a daring idea, and he slightly slowed down the rate at which he frantically poured mental energy into the mechanical fragments.

With my current mental capacity, it's impossible for me to reverse the entire freezing process.

Therefore, we must rely on external forces.

Only by stopping the freezing of time and space can we stop this man's disgusting, insane, and audacious surgery!

……

……

"Hey!"

At the same time, the people on the side of Shou Shi Ren watched Dr. Han rapidly advance the surgery, and everyone was extremely excited. They were certain that at this stage, the plan could be declared a success.

Neither Miss Ai in Zero City nor the members of the survivor team could affect the success of the surgery while time and space were frozen.

But just as their excitement reached its peak, they suddenly sensed a strange spiritual power.

"Ok?"

The elderly man in the Zhongshan suit and his assistant were both very perceptive and turned their heads abruptly.

In that instant, a crimson light suddenly shot into the sky, tearing the entire night sky apart.

The pitch-black night seemed to be illuminated by red searchlights.

Besides the thirty-six high priests in red robes surrounding Zero City, their private armies and itinerant knights stood guard in the darkness from all sides to prevent any external factors from affecting this surgery that would determine the fate of the world.

The troops they left behind on the outskirts, as well as the itinerant knights, were already extremely high-level forces in this world.

A worthy opponent!
But at that moment, they suddenly saw countless figures fly into the sky in the blood-red night sky, and then be cut into fine fragments of limbs.

Among them were fully armed elite troops and itinerant knights riding nightmare steeds. These people seemed to have turned into puppets, their limbs and fragments falling to the ground like raindrops in the air.

The extremely impactful scene made them feel as if they were in hell.

But that one glance was deeply imprinted in my mind, and suddenly everything around me turned pitch black.

When their vision cleared again, the ground was covered with countless severed limbs. Among these limbs, a young man dressed in an elegant trench coat and suit, with shiny leather shoes and meticulously combed hair, slowly walked towards them.

Eerie red streaks of blood appeared and disappeared around him, and surviving soldiers struggled to raise their guns at him.

But with just a slight flick of the blood vessel, his head was already flying high into the air.

"Bah!"

At the same moment, a sniper bullet whistled through the air and struck a high priest in red robes squarely in the head.

This bullet, layer by layer, managed to pierce through countless intertwined mental currents and strike the back of the opponent's head.

Although he failed to kill his opponent, he stumbled and his position deviated. This caused chaos in the huge blocking point, and the countless abyssal creatures in Zero City immediately sensed the loophole and rushed towards it.

Fortunately, the thirty-six high priests in red robes reacted very quickly, and seventeen of them immediately retreated with the priest who had been shot.

The thirty-six blocking positions have been reduced to eighteen blocking positions.

Thus, although the remaining eighteen high priests in red robes faced increased pressure, the blockade was once again completely sealed.

The eighteen red-robed high priests who had withdrawn from the blockade also had a sinister look in their eyes. They were about to find their opponents. The outer troops and the patrolling knights were clearly unable to stop the intruders, so they would take advantage of the free time to deal with these intruders with lightning speed.

"Crack!" "Crack!"

Suddenly, a series of electric sparks appeared on the high-voltage power lines in the distance, like lightning descending from the sky and illuminating the night sky. Figures appeared from different places.

Someone was crouching on a high-voltage power pole, holding a sniper rifle.

Someone slowly emerged from the ground. Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the ground was covered with insects, making it soft and muddy.

Even as she emerged from the earth and took human form, countless insects could still be seen crawling all over her body.

Some figures appeared ethereal, accompanied by sparks of electricity, appearing and disappearing intermittently.

On the other side, someone pushed a wheelchair up the small hill. Sitting in the wheelchair was a man with slightly curly hair and thin legs, who seemed unable to walk freely. Pushing the wheelchair was a pretty girl with a ponytail.

She looked ordinary, but just by looking up, she instantly forced back the surging spiritual power in front of her.

"This……"

The moment these figures appeared, even the eighteen red-robed priests, who were filled with rage, suddenly changed color.

Their rampant spiritual power originally carried a sense of arrogance, looking down on everyone, and also an anger to immediately punish those who had disrupted their thirty-six blocking formations.

But each of these people was exceptionally dangerous, causing them to immediately become cautious and gather at this location as if facing a formidable enemy.

"Oh?"

In the middle of the crowd, the elderly man in the Zhongshan suit who was the leader of the Guardians of the World also frowned slightly, but then smiled and swept his gaze over everyone: "Survivor team leader Chao Xiaobei, members Lan Huiguo, Bai Shixing, Meng Qingtong, and the Song siblings..."

"It seems that you have ultimately chosen her world-destroying camp?"

"..."

"Ha ha……"

The first to appear, a handsome young man in a suit, had already slowly approached. Meeting the gaze of the elderly man in the Zhongshan suit, he said softly, "What faction you're on isn't important..."

"I'm just here to demand compensation for our team members!"
