 Chapter 264 264 Progressive Four

　　Dududu.

As I was talking, suddenly the phone rang.

　　is Li Chengyi’s mobile phone.

 He glanced at Daxiong, signaled the other person to wait, and took out his mobile phone from his pocket.

 The caller ID is small brown.

 He pressed the connect button.

“Hey, I’m at the Big Bear Hospital. Is there anything wrong?”

"." There was silence on the other side of the phone for a while, until Li Chengyi almost thought there was something wrong with the phone, then Xiao Brown's voice came out.

 “Boss, I just died once!”

  “!?” Li Chengyi looked startled.

 “Where are you now!?” he asked quickly.

"In the company"

 “I’ll come right away!”

 Hang up the phone, Li Chengyi looked at Daxiong.

“I’ll go to the company and you can help me sample osteoblasts right away!”

"good!"

ten minutes later.

With Li Chengyi's active cooperation and complete relaxation, a little bit of osteoblasts were sampled by the puncture needle and put into a culture dish.

 After finishing the sampling, the two people quickly left the hospital and went to the headquarters of Mingyuan Company in Suiyang.

 At the same time, other team members also rushed to the company.

 The person facing away is also the back. This special blind spot that appeared for the first time gradually began to show terrifying lethality.

 Seven o'clock in the evening.

 Mingyuan Company Headquarters Building.

 The sixteen-story silver building had only a small half area with lights on at this time.

In the area of ​​the three-story underground garage, there is a separate open space, specially designed to accommodate the two blind spots targeted by people with their backs to each other.

 When Li Chengyi and others arrived, Xiao Brown was also here.

 The boss led people to block the surrounding entrances and exits.

 In an empty underground garage.

gantry crane and Syndra were chatting quietly, while Rainbow Sugar was holding a silver-white instrument alone and didn't know what he was doing.

 Xiao Brown stood in a corner and explained something to the company employees.

Li Chengyi and Da Xiong came down from the entrance and saw a separate isolated glass house at a glance, standing in the middle of the garage.

 Two people sitting in the glass room were eating.

Of the two people, one is a middle-aged woman with a somewhat plump figure. She is dressed in a wide T-shirt and black trousers. She does not look like a rich person, and is no different from ordinary people who go to the street market to buy vegetables early in the morning.

 The other was an old man with white hair and a stooped body. He must be at least eighty years old. The clothes were very well-dressed, but the strong fear was clearly visible in his eyes.

 “Boss, here you come!?” Seeing Li Chengyi coming down, Xiao Brown was the first to approach. He looked a little tired and excited.

"Well, how's the situation? What do you mean by dying once?" Li Chengyi asked quickly.

Xiao Zang waved the employees to get out.

After everyone had left and only the team members were left, he opened his collar and exposed the collarbone area.

At the collarbone, the blue crescent mark that appeared inexplicably last time was now the only one left.

"That's the mark! I obviously felt dead at that time. My whole body exploded, like a balloon, burning up. My whole body spread out, splashed, decomposed, and dispersed into the air, as if it had vaporized."

"But more than ten minutes later, I was lying on the floor, with all my clothes gone, but still alive!" Xiao Brown said solemnly, with a hint of horror in his eyes.

 Obviously, it feels bad to have died.

“You mean this crescent moon helped you come back to life?” Li Chengyi frowned.

"I remember that the boss mentioned before that when we were in the Dark City, Rean's subordinates, namely the members of the Golden Krait, once mentioned that the crescent mark has the effect of counteracting death. Now it seems that it is true." Big Bear Said aside.

“The two people in the glass room are the people in the blind spot affected this time?” Li Chengyi asked.

"Yes. One of them is called Li Pinmei and the other is Tang Kai. They are both company clients. When they came to the company, they were influenced by the first person who entered the blind spot with their backs. They are considered flashers." Xiao Brown explained.

"The most troublesome and dangerous thing about this blind spot is that it is extremely easy to flash. Even if you are not a high-frequency flasher like the boss, you can easily enter. It's like a contagious virus!" He recalled his previous encounter, and now Still a little scared.

Li Chengyi patted him on the shoulder and walked towards the boss and the gantry crane.

 “Boss, do you have any clues?”

"It's very troublesome. Within a five-meter range, people in the blind spot may be pulled in at any time." Syndra shook his head, "The only rule I know is that this blind spot will respond to the mental strength of the person in the blind spot. Consciousness Spirit The higher the intensity, the slower she turns her head."

 “Have you tried attacking?”

“Everything has been tried, including powerful explosives, but to no avail. All attacks have no effect on it except damaging the surrounding environment.”

 “What about physical strength?”

"no effect."

“.” Li Chengyi looked at the two people in the glass room, frowning.

He is now also entangled with this person who turned his back, and there is actually a person who turned his back on him in the company.

 Obviously, this is no accident.

How could it be such a coincidence that we both end up in a blind spot together?

“Behind the Dark City, there seems to be some blind spots that have changed.” He suddenly spoke out.

 “Have you tried the Black Sea Ritual?” he asked again.

"I tried it, and it seems that it made her turn around faster." Xiao Brown raised his hand.

“.” Li Chengyi was speechless.

Walking to the glass room, he quietly stared at the two people inside.

 ‘Iseline? ’

　　‘What’s wrong, brother? ’

This time he carried a piece of Iselin's finger bone. The two of them were connected through the finger bone, and they could talk to Iselin through semi-intervention and clasping hands.

　　‘If I encounter someone from behind again, can you pull me out in time? ’

‘You can try it. With the strength of my brother’s consciousness, the turning speed of the back should be enough for us to escape temporarily. 'Iseline replied.

 ‘Okay, let’s try it. ’

Li Chengyi's eyes flashed with determination.

 Since you are entangled with this thing, you must find a solution as soon as possible.

 After confirming that there was no problem, he turned around and looked at a few people.

"I'll flash in and give it a try. Don't let anyone get close to you."

 Everyone nodded slightly.

"give it to me."

Syndra said solemnly.

 He turned a jewel on the top of his cane.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 bang.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 bang.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 bang.

Several loud noises were heard in succession, and all entrances and exits of the garage were blocked.

 After Li Chengyi made sure there was no problem, he walked to the entrance of the glass room.

 Open the door and enter.

 The glass room is one-way and cannot see the outside world. Hearing the noise, the two people inside turned to look at him.

The old man meticulously took out a tissue and wiped his mouth.

“Can you ask someone older to do the test?” he said in a low voice.

 “Why?” Li Chengyi was surprised.

"There is no need for young people like you to save people like us who have no hope." He seemed to know something and guessed something.

“I may not be able to save you.” Li Chengyi shook his head.

 “That’s even less worth it.” The old man stood up and turned around. "After I became a blind spot, my two sons ignored me. One daughter secretly bought me personal disability insurance. Everyone ran away from me for fear that I would infect them and bring them in."

“In the end, the ones who helped me were strangers like you.”

 “Aren’t we always like this?” Li Chengyi said. "So it's best not to let your family know about your situation easily."

 The middle-aged woman on the side was still eating, but her body started to tremble as she ate.

Tears fell heavily into the rice bowl, but she still made no sound.

"Aren't you afraid?" The old man looked at Li Chengyi with doubts in his eyes.

 “Is fear useful?” Li Chengyi asked.

“Everyone knows it’s useless, but there are always people who are lucky. They always hope that others will stand in front and withstand the danger.” The old man lowered his head and gently wiped the corners of his eyes with the back of his hand.

"So don't expect anyone to save you from the beginning. The only thing you can control is yourself." Li Chengyi said.

"Yes. I should have understood this a long time ago." The old man forced out an ugly smile, "We, the dead-end people, should have deserted each other."

 He raised his head and looked at Li Chengyi.

 “Be careful. She’s coming!”

Li Chengyi's heart tightened and he turned around suddenly.

One meter behind him, a figure of a black-haired woman in a white dress stood in the glass room at some unknown moment.

"Tell me, what would happen if I didn't wait for her to turn around, but walked over to see her on my own initiative?" the old man said.

 Evidently he also saw the person with his back turned.

 “I don’t know.” Li Chengyi said.

“I want to give it a try. Maybe putting yourself to death and living later is also a way to survive.”

The old man showed a smile, took a lunge, and seemed to use all his strength to rush towards the person with his back turned.

Li Chengyi did not stop him, but just watched quietly.

 Not everyone in the dead end can still have the care of their family like Skittles.

 Poof.

 Poof.

 Poof.

 The old man ran three steps, turned to the side of the person with his back to him, and saw her profile.

 He opened his eyes wide and suddenly his whole body froze.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　．

 A little black flame ignited out of thin air from under his feet, rising upwards and igniting his clothes.

 “It really doesn’t work”

 In a blink of an eye, his entire body turned into a human-shaped torch.

Black flames completely surrounded it, and after a few seconds.

The black fire dissipated without affecting anything around it. Even the ground remained the same without a trace.

 People died.

But the person with his back did not disappear. He did not disappear because of the dead person. Instead, he continued to turn towards Li Chengyi.

 ‘Flower Language·Fortress. ’

 The ultimate flower-scaled garment of Gladiolus covers Li Chengyi's whole body.

 Hold the golden sword in the palm of your hand.

 The layers of enhanced golden light belonging to the fortress kept passing over him. The physical city wall is not released, but only the layer-by-layer strengthening effect.

same time.

 A circle of pale golden flames slowly rose within ten meters of the surrounding area.

 “Destiny.”

Li Chengyi bowed slightly, the soft energy in his body gathered, and his eyes locked on the target.

　　‘A sure hit! ’

                            .

The golden sword flashed through the lightning, like a beam of laser, instantly crossing the distance and hitting the back of the woman in the white dress.

　　Boom!

At the same time, a piece of black fire blocked the front of the sword out of thin air, like a solid wall, blocking the sword from moving forward.

 “There is an entity!”

 “She has a physical body! She can hit!”

Iselin’s voice sounded faintly excited.

 But Li Chengyi could no longer hear it at this time.

He saw countless golden lights turning into threads, flying out from the surrounding fire circle, entangling the person with his back to him, and forcibly pulling him out from somewhere.

 A large amount of black flames surged out from under the skirt of the man with his back turned, and merged into the flames blocking his sword edge.

 Consciousness and physical strength are being consumed rapidly.

 The golden light and black fire are also counteracting each other rapidly.

At this moment, the person with his back turned still turned around. Although it is very slow, it is obvious that it still has power! You can still turn around!

 According to the opponent's speed, it only takes five minutes to completely turn around and look at Li Chengyi.

 Time passes little by little.

One minute.

 Two minutes.

 Four minutes.

 ‘Brother, prepare to retreat! ’ Iselin’s voice came faintly.

"Withdraw?" Li Chengyi's face under the helmet was slightly ferocious. He could feel that the person facing his back was indeed very strong, but not as invincible as he thought.

  At least

 ‘Flower Language·Addicted Hands. ’

 Suddenly, a slender golden sword appeared in his other hand, passed over the skirt of the person with his back to him, and was on the ground.

Whoosh.

The man with his back turned his head for five minutes. At this moment, he twisted his head sharply as the tip of the sword pointed at the ground, and looked back.

Li Chengyi retracted his sword, quickly stepped back, and let out a long sigh of relief.

“You said she was untouchable before? Can’t she be touched now?”

 ‘Brother, how did you do it? ? ’ Iselin’s shocked voice came faintly from the surroundings.

 ‘She turned her head once for five minutes, and now she can touch it, just in time for various experiments. ’ Li Chengyi said.

 ‘But she will eventually come around? ’ Iselin said.

　　‘It doesn’t matter, let her turn back when the time comes. ’

　　.’

This test was a little different from what Li Chengyi expected. The Flower Language of Destiny did not eliminate the person who had his back, but it seemed to forcibly pull him out from an untouchable level.
