Chapter 404: [321] Fire! In My Eyes, Pei Mou Recognizes No Nobility (Asking for Monthly Tickets, Recommendations, and Genuine Support)_1
Pei Jinye had almost turned into light itself.
In a flash, he disappeared into Dragon Valley.
Using the (pseudo) light-speed ability, although very fast, also caused a huge drain on his spiritual power.
His spiritual power rapidly declined from over one hundred and seventy points to twenty before Pei Jinye stopped in his tracks.
It was his first time using it, and he wasn’t quite used to it, so as he stopped, he plunged headfirst into a nearby wall.
A “boom” resonated, shaking the earth and mountains.
“Crack!”
Tumbling out from the dust-filled hole, Pei Jinye waved his hand to sweep aside the rebar and steel plates in front of him, his physical body was so powerful that pushing away these bars and plates was like pushing on a block of soft tofu; he easily swept them aside.
Because of the high speed.
Pei Jinye’s clothes were completely burned away by the speed, revealing his bronze skin.
He stood up from the ruins and instantly donned his dark-colored war armor.
Powerful perceptual power radiated out.
When he realized where he was, Pei Jinye’s face showed astonishment.
He had actually flown out of Nagano City.
“This is pseudo light-speed? Still, it’s so powerful?”
A rough estimation.
In that instant, he had nearly flown thirty thousand kilometers, his speed almost reaching one-tenth the speed of light.
“However, it requires triggering the conditions of light to activate this talent.”
“And this…”
“Is only the first level of God·Light System; if it could be upgraded in the future… perhaps, the speed of light is just the beginning.”
Pei Jinye lifted his head, looking at the gradually brightening sky.
It was hard not to speculate whether one day he might be able to traverse to other worlds with a single thought.
But then he remembered the will behind the Flame God’s Coffin.
Just as Pei Jinye was about to compose himself, footsteps came from outside the ruins.
The burly man who barged in and saw Pei Jinye in his dark-colored war armor froze for a moment, realizing the armor’s value, his eyes lit up.
“Brothers, here we have—Pu-chi!”
A head hit the ground.
The headless corpse was sent flying out.
This sudden turn of events caused the gang members who were about to rush in from outside the ruins to freeze in place.
Pei Jinye stepped out of the ruins.
Without a hint of politeness, like a god of death, he waved his hand and the few men in front of him who were filled with shock and uncertainty exploded into a mist of blood.
“This!!!”
The figures not far away were completely dumbfounded.
Among their screams, everyone turned to flee, but wherever Pei Jinye’s gaze reached, everything was completely frozen.
Dozens of terrified, fleeing figures instantly froze in place.
Then, the sound of “crack” signified their shattering.
Having fought in the Mysterious World, Pei Jinye’s heart had become even more ruthless.
Passing by the shattered pieces of bodies, he didn’t even feel like giving them a glance, simply leaving on his own.
He checked the Lotus Mirror without hurry.
The Flame God’s Coffin lay quietly in his private space; to his astonishment, all the Treasure Medicine and other resources originally stored in his private space had been devoured by it.
“Damn it!”
“Where’s my stuff?”
He glared furiously at the Flame God’s Coffin.
“Spit it out!”
“Spit it out!!!”
Previously, this thing had bizarrely taken him away from the Mysterious World, and now it was ripping him off.
Pei Jinye tried to remove the Flame God’s Coffin from the Lotus Mirror but found he couldn’t take it out at all.
“So you plan to stay here and not leave?”
Pei Jinye frowned.
Something about this was unusual.
There must be something in the Lotus Mirror that was attracting it, otherwise, it wouldn’t stubbornly stay put.
But he couldn’t find the reason right away.
Pei Jinye decided not to study it any further.
He didn’t forget about another important matter!
Gaia!
In the Mysterious World, he had gained entry permissions to Gaia.
Since the Mysterious World could affect the real world, maybe he still had this entrance permission.
Of course, this was the ideal scenario.
After so many years, who knew if Gaia had patched that loophole.
With a flash, Pei Jinye appeared inside a black-market internet café.
Unexpectedly, to his surprise, the place was empty.
Powering up the computer.
Pei Jinye was about to infiltrate the network.
But then came the sound of wooden boards being struck behind him.
Pei Jinye raised an eyebrow.
Turning his head to look.
A middle-aged man with a head oozing with slime appeared; his bloodshot eyes were like two overripe apricots, his neck bore a huge gash as if chopped by an axe, his belly was sliced open, intestines dangling out…
“??? Zombies???”
Pei Jinye was stunned.
The middle-aged “zombie” had already roared and charged towards him.
Before it could reach him.
The middle-aged “zombie’s” head had already exploded.
The headless body staggered a few steps before crashing down lifelessly.
“After I entered the Mysterious World, reality almost remained frozen in time… Except for those few hours at the new year, I don’t know what happened outside…”
“Could it be that the apocalypse has truly arrived?”
Pei Jinye was completely baffled.
The moment he connected to the network, he started searching for related news.
Regrettably, the city called Nannoye had not a single piece of news about this.
“Someone is deliberately blocking the messages!”
Pei Jinye immediately changed his target and began trying to contact the entrance to Gaia.
Five minutes later.
Pei Jinye had a realization.
“They really patched it, but…”
Although he had picked up control over Gaia, he discovered the hidden code left in Gaia’s program from before.
Using the hidden code as a ladder, Pei Jinye entered the world of Gaia’s permissions as a bystander.
Soon, he “saw” a real world.
…
All the information recorded by Nagano’s 380,000 electronic eyes was at his disposal.
Having learned from past experience.
Pei Jinye didn’t immediately take over, but instead employed a tiered filtering system.
…
[Nagano… the disaster descends… a terrifying toxin permeates the whole city… ordinary people mutate, looking like zombies…]
[The current number of cleared cases has reached 317… ordered to seal off three areas…]
[Dragon Valley is fully sealed, now taken over by the Federation Headquarters, Western Continent has lost management rights…]
[Central State has dispatched relevant personnel to intervene, the Western Continent is under tremendous pressure, and it is expected that the third set of official talks between Central and Western sides will be conducted this morning at ten… the list of attendees is still tentative.]
[The Ouyang Family has encountered an assassination attempt…]
[Knight Order member Lin Xiawei has encountered an assassination attempt…]
Pei Jinye’s gaze paused.
He quickly followed this message to find out more.
At the same time, the 380,000 electronic eyes of Nagano in the Western Continent started operating.
In less than three seconds.
Pei Jinye found the immediate location of his senior sister, Lin Xiawei.
Almost instantly.
Lin Xiawei raised her head and looked at the electronic eye flashing red.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
She felt as if she was being watched.
Someone was watching her!
[Senior sister, go straight down the west side alley for three kilometers, then turn right into the harbor. Our people are there.]
Pei Jinye’s voice transmitted through a nearby loudspeaker.
Lin Xiawei was startled, “You… aren’t leaving?”
[You go first, don’t worry about me.]
“Alright, be careful.”
Lin Xiawei turned into the alley and left following Pei Jinye’s guidance.
The traffic light behind her malfunctioned, and the flowing traffic immediately descended into chaos. Those who had been pursuing Lin Xiawei were now blocked by the congested fleet of vehicles, cursing under their breath.
While facilitating Lin Xiawei’s escape, Pei Jinye did not forget the group of Central State Confidential Clerks who had responded to him at the bar earlier.
Nagano was now in complete chaos, and these people were surviving in a crevice.
He had no reason to abandon these comrades.
The 380 electronic eyes scanned rapidly.
What Pei Jinye didn’t expect was that out of the original dozen or so Confidential Clerks, only four remained.
Too many unpredictable things had happened in just a few hours.
Pei Jinye’s figure flashed.
He disappeared into the dark net cafe.
Meanwhile.
The machine he had previously operated had exploded into flames, making it impossible for even Star Ring to know what information he had just searched for.
…
Hidden in the slums, the four Central State Confidential Clerks desperately defended the door against a group of “zombies” that kept charging at the iron door with relentless howls, as if they wanted to tear the four living people to shreds.
“Captain, what has happened to them?”
“It’s a mutation!” the leading middle-aged man, who had lost an arm and was pale, said. “I’m not clear on the specifics, but we need to find a way to leave this godforsaken place as soon as possible!”
“Will anyone come to support us? Is that officer… still alive?” someone asked bleakly.
The middle-aged man fell silent.
Then, the next second.
A thunderous noise erupted from the corridor outside.
Not long after.
The howling of the “zombies” came to an abrupt halt, and the eerily quiet corridor stunned everyone behind the door.
“Thunk!”
A knock sounded on the door.
All four felt chills breaking out in an inexplicable terror.
But the next moment.
The calm voice of Pei Jinye rang out, “I’ve dealt with them, you can open the door now. It’s me, I’m Pei Jinye.”
Familiar voice, familiar name.
“It’s Officer Pei!”
All four were overjoyed.
“Officer!!!”
The young Confidential Clerks seemed to have so much to say, while the middle-aged Confidential Clerk stared in shock at the corpses piled up in the corridor.
At this moment, his fear of Pei Jinye’s strength was unprecedented.
And even more awe-inspiring!
“Officer, are we going to counterattack Nagano now?”
Upon hearing this, Pei Jinye paused, then couldn’t help but chuckle.
“That’s a good idea, let’s start by firing a couple of shots to intimidate those bastards.”
Having been visibly and secretly tormented by Nagano for so long and having lost so many comrades, everyone was itching for revenge.
Pei Jinye was decisive.
He aimed the two cannons he had obtained from the Nangong Family directly at Nagano’s city hall building.
“No hard feelings, just making a bold statement!”
“Boom!” “Boom!”
“Roar!”
The flames shooting into the sky shocked the whole of Nagano.
…
“This is too arrogant!”
