Fantasy Game: Infinite City

A few hours later.

The original team of five now had only three people left. They were crammed in a vehicle that had been severely damaged but was still speeding away for some reason. They kept looking back in panic, looking extremely embarrassed. All of this was due to a wrong attack a few hours ago.

A few hours ago, before the nuclear bomb fell, the sharp-eyed Jerome spotted an object flying in the sky. At that time, they did not know that it was a nuclear bomb on its way to attack, but a suffocating feeling, for some reason, swept through Jerome's brain. He did not communicate with other companions, but directly used his skills to take all five people away from their original positions.

The range of the skill was chosen at the extreme distance, but the indescribable feeling did not disappear. The other four people didn't know what happened. Just as they were about to ask Jerome, Jerome's skill was activated again. After that, Jerome kept releasing the skill until his energy was completely exhausted. Jerome brought everyone to the edge of Chuangu County.

The skill had just been released and the other four were about to ask Jerome what had happened when suddenly, a huge blinding flash appeared behind them, followed by a huge explosion. There was no time to figure out what had happened. The four of them fled in the opposite direction of the explosion. Xerxes grabbed Jerome, who was drinking energy recovery potion, and carried him on his shoulder.

Without knowing what exactly happened, the four people ran very fast, using all kinds of displacement skills. However, the thing behind them seemed to have a large range. The large-scale shock wave it produced blew the five people away. However, they were outside the explosion range, so they were not actually injured.

The mushroom cloud they saw later made the five people realize what had just happened, but after a brief moment of daze, the task prompt from the system brought them back to their senses.

After waiting for a while, despite the radiation concentration exceeding the standard but not enough to cause death to the five people, the five people followed the task instructions and successfully approached the task target given by the system, the location of Saori Ito.

This is the edge of the other side of Kawaki County. The radiation level is relatively low. Some scrapped vehicle wreckage is covered with a large amount of nuclear dust, and there is a thick layer of ash on the ground. They may have been some buildings.

A crooked thin line stretched out from the ash-covered ground. It looked like the traces of a wheel. It must have appeared not long ago.

The five people followed the trail quietly. The burning debris around them covered their deliberately low footsteps. Soon they caught up with the source of the trail, Ito Saori. She was seriously injured. To be more precise, she was tortured.

Saori Ito was naked, with wounds of all sizes all over her body. She was riding an old bicycle that was almost scrapped. Her entire left arm was torn off by brute force, and along with her entire right leg, it was twisted into a knot and placed in the basket in front of the bicycle.

This crooked thin line is the trace left by Saori, who was riding a bicycle with one hand and one foot. There is a half-cut steel pipe on her back, and there is an iron plate that seems to be welded on it, with the words "Cycling, please do not disturb" written in sloppy words. Based on the color of the words and the wounds on Saori's body, the raw material is probably herself.

Regarding the seriously injured target of the mission, the five people did not attack her directly, but observed her carefully. They found a pendant hanging around Saori's neck. According to the hints given by the system before, this should be a rebirth prop for Saori.

After making careful calculations, five people attacked at the same time. While smashing the pendant, five people released their ultimate skills at the same time, killing Saori in one fell swoop. Saori's mutilated body remained in place and did not disappear. It seemed that she had no chance of rebirth.

The mission was successfully completed and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but it seemed that they relaxed too early. There was still one last stage of the mission and they needed to find a vehicle to leave here.

The urban area was destroyed, and they thought of the previous train. The station was located some distance away from the urban area of ​​Chuangu County, which was the center of the explosion. If they were lucky, the train might not have been destroyed, or at least it could still be running.

Although they were also worried about whether they would encounter Han Zu, after all, it now seemed that the train should be the only vehicle to leave Chuangu County, if Han Zu did not leave on foot, or was teleported out of the copy after completing the mission.

As for the nuclear bomb that exploded in Chuangu County, none of the five people thought it was Han Zu's masterpiece, because generally speaking that was impossible, at least unrealistic. They thought it was an unexpected event in the dungeon, such as those NPCs messing up and killing themselves.

The five people followed the route they remembered and went to the station where the train stopped. After arriving at the station, they did not see the previous train on the platform. It seemed to have left before the explosion.

In order to find other available vehicles, the five people could only return the original route and try their luck at the outermost part of the city. While looking for a usable vehicle, they accidentally passed by the place where Saori was eliminated before. Saori's body was still in the same place without any change. It seemed that she was dead, but there was an extra person next to her at this time, wearing ill-fitting beach shorts and slippers that he found from somewhere. He looked unfriendly and seemed unhappy.

The man also saw the five people who were looking for a usable vehicle. Without any warning, a team of fully armed elite soldiers suddenly appeared and opened fire without any warning. Xerxes, who had no time to react, was instantly shot into a sieve, turned into a white light, and was forced to exit the copy.

The remaining four people reacted at this time and rushed to fight back, but these elite soldiers were very tough, and it took a lot of effort to kill one of them. After a soldier was killed, a new soldier would immediately appear to complete the team, and the speed was so fast that they could even pick up the attack rhythm of the previously killed soldier.

And the weird thing is, although these soldiers seem to lack agility, their attacks are very tricky, as if they are impossible to dodge.

Under the attack of the fully armed soldiers, the remaining four people were defending and counterattacking while looking for a possible evacuation route, because they found that although these soldiers could be eliminated, their replenishment speed was too fast. If this continued, they would be the first to be exhausted.

Su Wen decided to stay and stop the soldiers from chasing her. She summoned a large number of monsters, hoping to temporarily hold back the soldiers with her numbers. She also summoned a huge evil spirit to briefly disperse the soldiers' formation.

Jerome took this opportunity to use his skills to take all four people away. Just before the magic box completely wrapped them, Jerome saw two hands penetrate Su Wen's magic box and grab her out before the skill was activated. After the skill was activated, Jerome, Liu Qiuning and Meng Rou left here smoothly. Unfortunately, Su Wen's magic box did not appear, and she should have been caught.

A burst of white light came from the distance. It was the beam of light produced when the player died and left the copy. Su Wen was killed.

The remaining three people left quickly. Fortunately, they found a pickup truck parked in a garage while escaping. Although it was damaged, it was at least still drivable.

Jerome jumped into the pickup truck and successfully started the car without a key. He stepped on the accelerator and drove away. Not long after they left the half-destroyed garage, a bomber flew here, dropped a bomb, and turned this place into a sea of ​​fire.

Time returns to the present.

"Xerxes and Su Wen are both dead, and there are only three of us left. Why did he suddenly attack us? We have been avoiding him before, so we shouldn't have any interaction with him, right?"

"He probably didn't kill Ito Saori on purpose. He must have kept Ito Saori for some purpose, which might be related to his mission. We killed Ito Saori and might have interrupted his mission."

"The system indicates that we are almost reaching the evacuation location, drive faster, Jerome!"

"My foot almost went into the engine. This thing is so broken, it's lucky it can still be driven!"

While talking nervously, the three of them looked back from time to time. There was no one behind them, so it seemed that the man did not follow them.

"what is that?"

"It's the urban legend I've seen before, the high-speed grandma who likes to drive fast. She won't attack, so just ignore her."

Next to the speeding vehicle, a smiling old lady was running on the right side of the vehicle at an unusually high speed, waving and greeting people. However, her eyes did not seem to be looking at the three people in the car, but somewhere on the other side.

"She seems to be looking at something else?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? This is a mountain road. We have already left the scope of Chuangu County. How could there be anything else? But then again, why haven't we reached the evacuation point yet?"

Meng Rou glanced to the other side casually and saw a figure in the distance that was also moving at high speed. She patted Liu Qiuning in the passenger seat and pointed in the direction of the figure.

"Jerome, faster!"

"I've already told you this thing is already very fast. If it speeds up any further, even if we don't get off the mountain road, this crappy car will fall apart!"

"I said hurry up!!"

"It's not you who's urging me... Damn it!!"

Jerome also caught a glimpse of a figure moving at high speed in the distance. His eyesight was better than the other two. He saw a giant about five meters tall, running at full speed in the distance. When passing through the dense woods, his speed did not slow down at all. Those trees were directly broken by him, raising a lot of smoke and dust.

Although his exact location was obscured by the smoke and dust, his vision could not be seen, but judging from the direction of the smoke and dust, he was driving side by side with this car and the highway truck next to it.

Jerome stepped on the accelerator to the bottom with such force that the accelerator pedal even kicked directly into the car. The damaged vehicle accelerated again and began to shake under the heavy load.

"He's gone!"

"Did we lose him?"

"Up there! Up there!"

The three looked up and saw a shadow rapidly enlarging in the sky. It was a giant leaping over from a distance. Although they narrowly avoided the falling giant, the giant also closed the distance between them and was chasing closely behind the speeding vehicle.

Using their skills, Jerome and Liu Qiuning successfully increased the speed of the car, which was about to fall apart, and gradually widened the distance between them and the pursuers behind them. They were about to reach the evacuation point given by the system.

The giant who was chasing her relentlessly started talking to the Grandma Gaosu who was running beside her. He pointed his finger next to Grandma Gaosu with a surprised look on his face. Grandma Gaosu turned her head but saw nothing. She turned her head back in confusion, and two gun barrels appeared in front of her.

"boom!"

The head of the high-speed mother-in-law was blown into pieces, and the sudden stop made her headless body uncontrollably roll wildly to the side. The giant also followed and left the vehicle.

"He's not targeting us?"

"It doesn't matter! How far is it?!"

"Five kilometers! We're almost there!"

The train was speeding along and was about to reach its destination. When it was only a few hundred meters away from the destination, a figure suddenly appeared in front of them and rushed straight towards their vehicle at an incredible speed.

"boom!"

The violent collision completely destroyed the car, turning it into parts all over the ground. The three people flew out from different angles. During the flight, the roar of the engine coming from the sky made the three people react instinctively. They used various means to avoid their original range.

However, the expected attack did not occur. Instead, a team of fully armed soldiers surrounded them and opened fire at the same time the moment they landed. Liu Qiuning, who reacted a step late, was shot into a sieve in an instant. Jerome's reaction speed was very fast. He disappeared here and stepped into the evacuation area. He even had time to pull Meng Rou over with the magic box.

"Countdown to evacuation: 50 seconds"

Jerome and Meng Rou were ready for defense. They needed to survive these 50 seconds to evacuate safely. However, Han Zu, who had regained his military appearance, did not continue to attack them, but left directly.

"He gave up?"

"Be careful, they may attack in other ways, don't relax."

"Countdown to evacuation: 30 seconds"

The countdown for the evacuation was almost halfway through, and there had been no abnormalities. It seemed that Han Zu had really left here, and no one knew where he had gone.

"Countdown to evacuation: 20 seconds"

"what is that?"

"grass!"

Something streaked across the sky, leaving a long tail, and flew quickly toward the evacuation area. After reaching the location, it quickly fell to the ground.

"Countdown to evacuation: 10 seconds"

"Hurry up! Why hasn't this damn countdown ended yet?!"

"Countdown to evacuation: 5 seconds"

Just before the evacuation countdown was about to end, something crashed into the ground, right in front of Meng Rou and Jerome. Before the explosion produced a dazzling flash, the two saw clearly what was in front of them: a nuclear bomb.

"boom!!!!!"

After the flash, a huge explosion engulfed the place, and with only 1 second left in the evacuation countdown, the nuclear explosion instantly vaporized the two people at the center of the explosion. Just one second later, they would have been able to evacuate successfully.

Another beautiful huge mushroom cloud rose into the sky, and nuclear dust quickly covered the sky, and the surroundings became dark.

In a wasteland some distance away from the center of the explosion, Han Zu, whose body was covered in nuclear dust and whose clothes were burned by radiation, stood naked, looking at the towering mushroom cloud not far away.

"It's so beautiful. No matter how many times I see it, I still feel happy from the bottom of my heart."

Han Zu lowered his head and patted the nuclear dust off his body, then sighed.

"Looks like I need to find some less fragile clothes and get down to business first."

Heading in another direction, Han Zu left the range of the explosion and walked towards a location he had passed before.
