Fantasy Game: Infinite City

"Ok?"

After free falling for a distance, Han Zu's falling speed suddenly began to slow down, but this was not under Han Zu's own control. Using the powerful observation power of his eyes, Han Zu found that he had come into contact with a special and familiar gas, which was what he had seen in the world of the creation engine.

As the speed gradually slowed down, Han Zu's feet touched the ground without making any sound. The familiar touch under his feet further confirmed Han Zu's guess that there was a great possibility that there was a creation engine under the island.

"The ground feels so strange, like..."

"Like stepping on flesh and blood?"

"Yes, you have been to a similar place?"

"It should be, but I need to see it with my own eyes to confirm it. Let's go. We should go this way."

This passage hidden in the dense forest on the island should be a hidden entrance, not the main entrance to the facilities below, so the passage is very rough, and the living tissues on both sides of the rock walls have traces of human damage. Perhaps for the sake of concealment, there is no lighting equipment in this passage, and it is pitch black.

Walking to the end of the passage, Han Zu and Garcia found a "secret door", which was a slowly moving mesh of living tissue. It would slowly open to both sides and close immediately after reaching its maximum size.

Through this living tissue, there was some light at the corner ahead. Leaning against the side of the living wall, Han Zu quietly stuck his head out and glanced inside.

The light was not emitted by that team, but by some organ-like things on the living wall. As the living tissue rose and fell like breathing, those organs emitted a unique red light, illuminating the space inside.

The space inside seemed to have been eroded. Most of the living tissues had turned black and rotten. They no longer rose and fell, but they did not emit a rotten smell. Instead, they emitted a unique gas. This gas was the same gas that had slowed down Han Zu's fall before.

"What... is this?"

"A broken thing. From what I remember, judging by the shape of the decayed parts, this should have been the place where the raw materials were generated."

"Raw materials? Is this part of a production line?"

"Yes, this is..."

"Om~"

A unique sound coming from not far away interrupted the conversation between Han Zu and Garcia. Keeping quiet, the two of them quietly moved in the direction where the sound came from.

"This is it. We have to find a way to cut it out from here."

"A plasma beam should be able to do it, but it's too inefficient. I need enough time to do it."

That special team was in this space, and their leader was the woman they met on the submarine. They were surrounding something, and judging from their conversation, they were trying to cut out something, but they were blocking that thing, so Han Zu couldn't see it for the time being.

Han Zu observed other locations in the space. Although there were some minor differences, the overall structure was not much different from what he had seen before. This was indeed a creation engine, but it was a defective product. The raw material generation device was corrupted and damaged. Logically, the creation engine should not be able to operate normally.

"Om~"

"I can't do that. These living tissues have the ability to repair themselves. I need a bigger energy source to see if I can get in touch with 'home'."

"No, these living tissues can block signals. The signals of the equipment we carry are not that strong. After the signal towers of the rat removal company were destroyed, we can no longer use them to enhance the signal."

"Damn it! Who on earth suddenly attacked this island? Was it an internal conflict? Or was it done by some other force?"

"I'm not sure. After the submarine we robbed was destroyed, we lost control of the island. But judging by the powerful weapon on the island, it's very likely that a special forces unit from another force attacked the island. Their target should be the blueprint for that weapon."

"If it weren't for that man, we wouldn't be in this passive situation now. Why did he attack the submarine?"

The leading woman thought about it and expressed her opinion.

"The target he was looking for on the submarine was a hidden object. That object was a living tissue. It should be a special research project hidden on the submarine by the people of the rat removal company. If that man was a human, he would have the ability to absorb living tissue."

"A street cleaner from a rat removal company?"

The woman carefully recalled the previous battle scene, shook her head, and denied her companion's statement.

"I don't think so. Compared to the biological weapons made by the Rat Extermination Company, that man's body is much stronger, especially his powerful regeneration ability. In the previous fights with him, I hit him in the fatal spots several times, but it was almost like an ineffective attack on him. He could recover to normal in an instant and continue fighting. If the Rat Extermination Company could develop such a powerful biological weapon with independent thinking ability, we would have been wiped out by the Rat Extermination Company long ago."

"The ability to think independently? How do you say that?"

"That man knows how to use tactics. Although they are crude, they are definitely improvisations, which are different from those programmed biological weapons. Secondly, he can change the priority of his targets according to the current situation. For example, due to his speed disadvantage, after he found that he couldn't destroy me, he immediately got rid of my pursuit and destroyed the submarine's engine. He also knew to destroy the escape device in advance. If I didn't have the ability to teleport, I'm afraid I would have died at the bottom of the sea."

"Then he also stayed at the bottom of the sea?"

"Maybe, but I always feel a little uneasy. The man might not be dead."

"That shouldn't be the case. He can't keep up with your movements, so he probably doesn't have any teleportation abilities. From what you said, he has strong regenerative abilities, so his activities should require a lot of oxygen. He probably can't handle the huge pressure at the bottom of the sea."

"I hope you're right. I've gone off topic. We need to hurry. Including us, there are at least three forces on this island."

"We're here to help, too."

The special team headed by the woman, all of whom had the ability to fire plasma beams, worked together and, after some time, successfully cut off what they were blocking.

"Done! Hoooooo!"

"Hurry up, I'll build the portal. We have to take this thing back first."

The woman suddenly took off her combat jumpsuit and was only wearing underwear. Han Zu, who was hiding in the dark, observed that there was a tattoo on the woman's back. Under the woman's urging, the tattoo glowed and began to move, as if it were alive.

“Galala…Heh…Galala…”

The woman crouched on the ground covered with living tissue, her palms pierced into the living tissue. In front of her, a portal made of flesh, blood and bones was slowly taking shape.

"Buzz~buzz!"

After the portal was formed, a transparent light spot appeared in the middle. The woman used the plasma beam in her eyes to hit the light spot. After a brief buzzing sound, the portal was successfully opened. After it was fully opened, the team began to evacuate one after another.

However, this portal seemed to have some kind of limitation and could not allow everyone to pass through at once. Carrying the thing that was cut off, two team members entered the portal first and left.

After completing a transmission, the portal needs more than ten seconds to recharge, and this charging of the portal consumes a lot of the woman's physical strength and energy. As the team members left through the portal one after another, the woman's breathing began to become heavy, and the tattoo on her back became much dimmer.

"How is it? Can you still hold on? If not, close the portal and take a rest. Our stuff is safe anyway."

"Hu...Hu...No, let's go quickly, before the night gets too long. I'm still fine, enough for you all to leave through the portal."

"Then what will you do? After the portal is closed, it will probably take you a long time to recover before you can use the teleportation ability again."

"It's okay. It's easier for me to act secretly when I'm alone. I'll find a safe place to hide and wait for my strength to recover."

In front of the portal, the last two remaining team members talked with the woman for a while, and only after the woman's repeated insistence did they leave through the portal. It can be seen that the team has a good relationship with each other, and they are really worried about this woman.

"Huh! Now I have to turn off this transmission..."

"Buzz..."

A noisy sound attracted the woman's attention. Before she could close the portal, she remembered that she had heard this sound on the island. Those special railguns would make this sound before firing.

The woman turned her head suddenly and saw a dazzling light suddenly lit up in a dark corner of the space. The woman quickened her movements and wanted to close the portal, but her speed was still a little slow.

"boom!"

The dazzling pulse beam went towards the portal, and the sudden impact force around it blew the woman away and hit the flesh and blood tissue next to her, but this also saved her life. The pulse beam hit the portal and went to the other side of the portal, and that portal was also decomposed and destroyed by the residual power of the pulse beam. The portal was maintained by the woman's power. After being destroyed, these energies also backfired on the woman. The woman spat out a mouthful of blood, fell on the ground covered with flesh and blood tissue, and her breath became weak. Although she was not dead, she would not be able to get up for a long time.

“Tread…Tread…”

The woman lying on the ground breathed hard. Due to the backlash, the air she breathed was full of the strong smell of blood. She heard footsteps approaching her, and turned her head with great effort to look in the direction of the sound.

"Yes... yes... you..."

Han Zu and Garcia stood beside her, looking down at her.

"What was that thing you cut off earlier?"

"You...you...are...who..."

"So what exactly is this place?"

Garcia asked Han Zu questions, and Han Zu lit a cigar and told Garcia about the creation engine he had seen before.

"So this place is another creation engine?!"

"Yes, but it's a broken engine. We just saw that the raw material production equipment was damaged. According to the characteristics of this kind of flesh and blood machinery, although this creation engine can still be used, there will definitely be problems with the things it creates."

Garcia remembered the room with the altar in the building of the scientific research department. Combined with some information about the altar that Han Zu had told her before, Garcia came up with a reasonable inference and told it to Han Zu.

"You mean to say that we can summon some unique life forms through the altar, and then transform them through this broken creation engine, so as to gain the ability to control them?"

"From the information we have received, this should be the case."

"Who are you? Why do you know so much about these things?!"

The seriously injured woman nearby also had a certain self-healing ability, and her injuries healed quickly, but her energy was not yet enough for her to teleport away.

"So what you took away was a modified altar?"

"Who are you..."

"Snapped!"

Han Zu squatted down and slapped the woman on the head.

"Are you a repeater? Do you want to analyze the current situation? Your normal reaction now should be to answer whatever I ask."

"I won't..."

"Oh."

Han Zu grabbed the woman, lifted her up, broke her limbs, and stuffed her into the barrel of the rail gun next to him.

"I'm a very honest person. If you don't want to tell me, just forget it. I hope you will be reborn into a good family in your next life."

"Wait..wait..you can't..."

"Goodbye, oh no, goodbye forever."

Waving at the woman in the barrel, Han Zu left the railgun, which hummed and prepared to fire.

"Are you really going to kill her? Maybe we can get some useful information from her."

"No, she's stalling for time."

Han Zu pointed to Garcia, and suddenly his elite troops appeared beside him, with their weapons pointing at the location where the portal was destroyed.

A larger portal suddenly appeared at that location, and a team quickly passed through the portal.

"Da da da da da!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

However, before they could see the surrounding environment clearly after emerging from the portal, Han Zu's soldiers opened fire at the same time. The machine guns and flamethrowers instantly wiped out all the people in this vanguard, and after that, they fired freely into the open portal.

The rail gun next to it was pulled over by Han Zu, and Han Zu finally had a conversation with the woman in the barrel.

"It doesn't really matter whether I know what you are doing or not. You were already dead when you attacked me on the submarine. As for what you are doing, it's none of my business."

Reaching out and patting the woman's face, Han Zu inserted the barrel of the railgun into the portal. With a loud bang, the pulse beam was fired. The woman in the barrel was decomposed by the pulse beam before she could be teleported.

Whatever was behind the door must have suffered considerable damage, because when the portal closed, an energy explosion occurred, but most of it acted on the other side of the door.

"Okay, things on the island have basically been resolved. Let's find a safe location and set off some fireworks."

"The fireworks you're talking about aren't they...?"

"almost."

Han Zu took Garcia and left through the exit on the other side. The garrison forces on the island were concentrated around the main facilities, and there were not many people here.

"Let's go to the beach."
