Chapter 4, Slice Research
The sea is calm and tranquil
On the current side, Wei Shu's voice was very certain: "... ... Trust me."
... ...
Nan Jin had a complex expression, as if she wanted to say something
The moment I saw the helicopter arrive
What kind of interest is there in slice research?" Gu Shen's expression turned pale, and he seemed a bit flustered
She neither attacked nor fled, maintaining a silent standoff, as Gu Shen felt the focus of attention... That tall lady put away the bone knife
It is hard to imagine that A-009 did not kill him
"Impossible." Mr. Tree shook his head and stated emphatically, "There can be no malfunction in the deep sea."
The woman on the other end of the headset remained silent
The overwhelming sense of pressure brought by A-009 was gradually suppressed by an even stronger force. The woman in the black dress wanted to move, but dozens of thick vines suddenly erupted from the soles of her feet, spreading and wrapping around her. In just a few seconds, she had already transformed into a solid wooden sculpture
With two "pata" sounds, two vines emerged from the mud, transforming into a pair of handcuffs that firmly locked Gu Shen's wrists.
Wei Shu understood what this silence meant, and he smiled silently: "I am very sorry about one thing, I have already reported this operation to Mr. Shu through 'Deep Sea'. The level of A-009 is too high; if it fails, we will all be unable to bear the responsibility... If I am not mistaken, Mr. Shu should have already arrived."
1 minute
rumbling
Not escaping, not escaping, not escaping, who would dare to escape
The eyelids of a certain person who had fainted twitched, and they immediately jumped up, only to be predictably pressed back down to the ground.
Without any hesitation, Nan Jin took a large step back and came to the side of the young man.
59
Oh?
Gu Shen's mind went blank; this woman possessed an absurd amount of strength. He found himself unable to resist, feeling as if he were nothing more than a sandbag, effortlessly lifted and suspended before her.
Exhaustion of mental energy
... ...
A fierce wind is approaching
Nanjin ... ... I would like to express my gratitude on behalf of Dateng City for successfully holding back A-009
... ...
Gu Shunshun instinctively fell to the ground, hands clasped behind his head, striking a standard pose of surrender: "Although you are leaning on a cane, look at me, my backside is all torn up, how could I possibly outrun you?"
The vines entwining the tall woman continue to grow, constricting and tightening the gown, becoming increasingly secure
He leaned on a purple wood dragon-headed cane and walked slowly to the side of the wooden-carved woman in a gown, examining the entangled A-009 and observing the traces of its battle with Nan Jin
In reality, 1 minute is very short... However, at this moment, every second could be the limit for Nan Jin
40
As the hibiscus closes its eyes like years passing in a moment, it silently recites in its heart, second by second
Wei Shu witnessed the real-time transmission of images, as well as the frenzied attacks of A-009. All the visuals were being converted into data in real-time, with a vast amount of data surging like a tide, thundering and synchronously uploading. Unfortunately, at this moment, this data was utterly meaningless. The strength, speed, and resilience of A-009 far surpassed that of Nan Jin, and the balance maintained by overexerting power through the technique of vibrating the blade would soon be shattered.
... ... Hmm, I have already seen it
The old man smiled and waved his hand, indicating to Nan Jin that there was no need to be so serious and that she could be more relaxed
The countdown in my heart and for the books has ended, and the 1 minute promised by Wei Shu has arrived
You have done very well
The tall woman, who had halted all actions, suddenly fell silent
"... ... Guess what." The old man stroked his chin, revealing a meaningful "friendly" smile
At the last moment, fortunately, he... saved my life
Nan Jin quickly glanced at the boy behind her
The helicopter roared once again
Hoo hoo hoo—
Wei Shu exited the status link from the control room, his face as pale as paper
3...... 2...... 1......
In the blink of an eye, Nan Jin grasped the collar of Gu Shen's shirt and lifted him up
Nan Jin's expression was peculiar
All sounds have vanished
She knew that Wei Shu had made a very correct choice
Chaff is flying in the air
Nothing happened
Immediately afterward, his pupils slowly contracted as he saw a segment of surviving surveillance footage, in which... A-009 unusually displayed a gentle demeanor, engaging in a calm conversation with the boy named Gu Shen
The old man raised his eyebrows, intrigued.
... ...
... ...
He snapped his fingers
Teacher
At this point, the old man suddenly paused, looking at the young boy that Nan Jin was holding in her hand
Gu Shen's head was buzzing, and he still did not know what had happened
The tall woman in a gown, holding a sharp knife, hovered before Gu Shen. She halted her downward strike, and beneath the shadow cast by her wide-brimmed hat, two faint red glimmers slowly dissipated
Wei Shu is very clear
A large amount of information is damaged, the images are fragmented, and they have been interrupted by an unknown external force
Wei Shu frowned
The "support" that Wei Shu invited turned out to be ... ...
The cabin door on one side of the vertical lift opens
Ah ha ... ... Do you want to escape? Mr. Tree said with a hearty laugh: "Don't be afraid, we are not good people"
The old man gazed at the wooden carving, furrowing his brow: "Compared to the last time I personally imprisoned it, A-009 has grown significantly stronger. It is already a miracle that you managed to hold on until I arrived... However, I cannot comprehend what kind of stimulation or provocation she encountered in just three days"
However, upon closer observation, one would notice a faint hissing sound when these vines intertwine; this is the corrosive power of A-009 coming into effect. The binding of these vines is quite strong, but it also has a time limit
60
Each attack by A-009 brings her closer to the brink of collapse, and she could break down at any moment before reinforcements arrive
At the same time, he activated the footage of Subway Line 13, accelerating the playback... Under the connection to the deep sea, a vast amount of information flooded into his mind
After A-009 escaped, he rode alone on Line 13... This guy stayed in the same carriage with her for a full 20 minutes. Nan Jin recalled a certain scene, her expression slightly changing, and said: "When I cut open the carriage, I saw that A-009 did not kill him; the two were coexisting peacefully."
Every connection in the deep sea involves the upload of vast amounts of data. Digesting such an enormous volume of information is no simple task. Wei felt a throbbing pain in his temples, with veins bulging, and waves of sharp pain coursing through him. His back was already soaked with sweat.
This fellow is actually pretending to be unconscious
In a moment of profound silence, Wei Shu connects his thoughts to the deep sea and begins to contemplate this question
The entire map of Da Teng City is laid out before one's eyes
Mr. Shu stared at Gu Shen for a moment, then smiled and said: "An ordinary person who can survive under A-009 must be... exceptionally lucky. Take him back for dissection and research."
As the helicopter landed, an invisible wave of gentle power spread outwards
He sat alone in the control room, connected to the deep sea. Once the permissions were granted, he seemed to become a part of that all-powerful computer, with his consciousness and thoughts spreading out.
In the glow of the helicopter, an elderly man in a Zhongshan suit slowly emerged
The silence of the suburban night sky was shattered as the distant roar of helicopter blades echoed, beams of intense light pierced through the dark clouds, converging on the three individuals gathered on the lawn
The woman wore a complex expression, exhaling deeply as her taut nerves began to relax
Well done
Nan Jin raised her head and saw a familiar face in the light
A-009...... Why has it become so insane
This is unbearable, using oneself as a meat shield?
Nan Jin was taken aback ... . ... What Wei said turned out to be true. For reasons unknown, he used this young man as a shield, and A-009 abruptly ceased its fierce assault
""
Nan Jin did not say anything and wearily ended the conversation
Nan Jin also lowered her head, holding the one whose limbs were on the ground, resembling a shrimp, clearly having fainted
Nanjin raised her head
39
Gu Shen closed his eyes, preparing to embrace the end of his life
Wei Shu knew that the task of detaining A-009 had come to an end
Perhaps it is merely a matter of good fortune. Nan Jin rubbed her brow and explained on behalf of Gu Shen
At the moment of despair, a voice urgently sounded.
With the final crisp sound of the book, the long sword shattered
Before her, the towering figure of the Gown Lady, as tall as a mountain, broke through the defense line of the blade domain, her face twisted in a fierce expression, raising the knife to strike down.
... ...
... ...
Nanjin ... ... gave up resistance, using Gu Shen as a human shield when breaking through the A-009 knife domain
Indeed, some changes have occurred ... Nan Jin hesitated for a moment and said: "The emergency report states that A-009 escaped due to a malfunction in the deep sea."
She is like a drowning person with no way out, on the verge of being submerged at any moment, and Wei's promised "1 minute" is the only lifeline she can grasp
Nan Jin expressed some regret and softly said, "If I could do it again, I would do better."
The elder patted the lady's broad shoulder and laughed heartily, "As expected of my disciple, you now have the courage to challenge A-009? However, while having courage is certainly a good thing, it would be unfortunate to lose your life due to impulsiveness... You must cherish your own life! This life is very precious, and it is not worth losing it here"
She was still able to persevere, but her cheeks were covered with two lines of blood tears, and the two long blades, amidst rapid strikes, were on the verge of shattering, with the secret patterns nearly worn away.
Wei Shu's voice is the final tranquility in a noisy world
... ...
What a huge surprise
... ...
Do you still dare to mock yourself? Mr. Tree's lips twitched slightly as he coldly smiled: "Come back with me obediently for a while, everyone is quite interested in you."
Several staff members placed the tall wooden sculpture of the lady into a large sealed container, while also supporting Gu Shen
Set off
At this moment, the man can only weakly sit in the chair, finding it difficult even to move a single finger
