Zhang Yi, who was sitting on one side, looked at him slightly.

Check gas?

He didn't remember this happening.

But this is impossible to say.

Every time I come back, the details of some of the things I encounter will always be a little different.

For example, in his previous life, he almost missed being hit by a flower pot that fell from upstairs when he went out early.

Thinking like this, he didn't answer immediately.

Instead, he quietly stood up, walked slowly to the door, and looked out through the peephole.

At this moment, it is noon.

Although the skylight is a little dim.

But it's not a problem to see clearly what's going on in the corridor.

Standing outside the door was a man in red overalls and a peaked cap.

Holding the testing equipment in hand, everything seemed normal at first glance.

The words 'Kun Niao Gas' are printed on the chest of the overalls.

There seems to be no problem.

But Zhang Yi had no intention of opening the door.

Because just as he approached the door, the Unyielding Heart in his chest jumped suddenly, and the five senses that were originally a normal person were amplified several times in an instant, like a spider that senses subtle vibrations on a spider web, becoming extremely sharp.

He could even faintly hear the conversations of passers-by downstairs in the distance.

At this moment, he clearly realized that there was more than one person outside the door.

There, there are six heartbeats.

Realizing this, alarm bells rang in his heart.

"Who is it?"

Before the end of the world, he was just an ordinary company employee, and he didn't usually make enemies with others.

In the previous six lives, he had not encountered any danger before the end of the world.

But this life actually encountered such a thing just after rebirth.

Don't know about others.

But one thing is for sure.

The one who comes is definitely not a kind person.

He held his breath and backed away slowly, planning to call the police first.

"He found it! People are inside!"

An undisguised shout suddenly sounded outside the door.

Zhang Yi's expression changed, he turned around and rushed towards the balcony, trying to escape by jumping out of the window.

But the next second.

"Bang!"

Sparks flew from the door lock, and then, without warning, the entire door was kicked open.

Five heavily armed figures with guns swarmed in quickly, all pointing their guns at him.

"Squat down! Now! Otherwise we'll shoot!"

Zhang Yi Instead of stopping, he suddenly accelerated and rushed straight to the balcony like a cheetah.

But a close second.

"Bang!"

The bullet tore through the air and penetrated his right leg instantly.

Blood mist splashed out, and he lost his balance and fell, about to hit the ground hard.

But the next second, something strange happened.

The wound that was originally bloody and bloody healed quickly at a speed visible to the naked eye. The blood flowed back, the texture was reshaped, and the skin was smooth and clean as before.

Only the holes in his trouser legs proved that what just happened was not an illusion.

Zhang Yi shook slightly and stood up again.

This scene beyond common sense made several people at the door stunned for a moment.

"This self-healing ability...?!"

Zhang Yi also had a trace of surprise on his face.

Even he himself didn't expect to be so tyrannical.

In the flash of lightning, a cold light flashed in his eyes, he gave up on escaping, picked up the fruit knife on the table with his backhand, and rushed towards everyone!

Bang! Bang! Bang! ...

Gunfire rang out again.

Those people were obviously well-trained, and the impact points of their bullets were precisely suppressed on his limbs, deliberately avoiding the fatal parts.

Zhang Yi felt a chill in his heart.

His judgment was indeed correct. If they wanted to kill him, they should have aimed at the head instead of the legs.

They want to stay alive.

When he thought of this, he no longer had any scruples and rushed forward against the rain of bullets!

At such a distance.

Even if Unyielding Heart gave him a terrifying sense and could detect the trajectory of the bullet, he could not completely avoid it. After all, sensing it was one thing, but whether he could react to it was another.

But he didn't care either.

Let the blood flowers explode on his body again and again, but he healed again and again.

The heart keeps beating.

His speed was a bit faster, and his perception was amplified to the extreme.

This also caused his steps to not lag at all, and he was in front of everyone in an instant.

The sharp blade in his hand flashed with cold light and went straight to the throat of the nearest person!

However, the moment the blade was about to touch the skin.

His movements suddenly froze and his body went rigid.

Zhang Yi lowered his head and saw several anesthesia needles piercing his body at some point.

"You're actually not immune to anesthesia shots?!"

This thought came to mind.

Then, without warning, he fell backwards.

With a "clang" sound, the fruit knife slipped from his loosened fingers and made a clear sound on the ground.

However, his consciousness can still remain clear.

Aware of the surrounding situation.

I just heard a few faint whispers floating in my ears:

"Scared me? What kind of monster is this? Could it be a gecko? It can even ignore bullets?"

"That's so arrogant. If he didn't want to live, I would have shot him in the head!"

"Okay, don't ask too much. The higher-ups want people, and we are only responsible for the execution."

"Fortunately, I brought a tranquilizer gun with me this time... otherwise I wouldn't have been able to restrain him."

Several people were talking, the next second.

Zhang Yi felt like two more needles were inserted into his body, and a large amount of anesthetic was pushed into his body.

Then the whole person's consciousness also sank, completely unconscious.

I don't know how much time has passed.

Zhang Yi slowly regained consciousness. When he opened his eyes, he found that he was in a completely unfamiliar environment.

It is not the prison as expected, nor is it a cold experimental bench.

But a luxuriously decorated office.

Not far away, outside the huge floor-to-ceiling window, a striking 'Y'-shaped building stands quietly.

That's the landmark of Qiyan City.

Judging only by distance and field of view, Zhang Yi determined his location almost instantly. He was still at Qiyan City, and he was in the city center.

After discovering this, I thought about the heavily armed people who broke into his house before.

It is not difficult to guess that the person behind all this is most likely an official.

Just makes him wonder why the other party is targeting him?!

"Are you awake?"

A voice suddenly sounded.

Zhang Yi looked around and saw an ordinary-looking young man wearing a white shirt sitting on an armchair nearby.

The man was watching him quietly, his eyes calm, but with an invisible look.

It made him feel a little uncomfortable.

It's as if the other person's gaze can penetrate itself.

"Who are you?! What do you want to do by catching me here?!"

Zhang Yi spoke in a deep voice.

The young man who was sitting quietly had various thoughts running through his mind.

"It doesn't matter who I am."

His tone was straight, as if he was stating a fact that had nothing to do with him.

"The important thing is that I can help you."

"Help me? 'Help' me in this way?!"

Zhang Yi sneered.

His peripheral vision was like a falcon, quickly scanning around.

The empty room, and the seemingly defenseless man in front of her.

There is only one chance.

The moment the thought flashed through his mind, the Unyielding Heart in his body pulsed violently.

Boom!

Like the sound of war drums, the blood boils instantly! The sensation spreads like ripples, and every muscle is screaming.

That's it now!

Zhang Yi exerted force with one step, and shot out like an arrow from the bowstring, going straight to Hu Qi's throat!

He was going to completely subdue this pretentious guy in one move!

However.

Hu Qi still sat there quietly, as if he was frightened.

Bang!!!

A dull impact sounded like a heavy hammer hitting an iron wall.

Zhang Yi only felt an irresistible force coming back, and his entire arm was instantly paralyzed. His whole body flew out like a kite with a broken string, and hit the wall behind him hard.

The aftermath of the shock reverberated through his body, Zhang Yi's face turned red, and he felt as if his whole body was about to fall apart.

But the pain faded away in just a blink of an eye.

In the face of the strong recovery power brought by Unyielding Heart, injuries that would break the muscles and bones of ordinary people would have no impact on him at all.

He looked up.

Look at the figure that has not moved from beginning to end.

And, that layer of absolute barriers that separates them and cannot be captured by the naked eye.

The next second.

clatter.

Hu Qi's index finger tapped lightly on the armrest of the seat.

Buzz!

Zhang Yi The air around him suddenly distorted.

An invisible force suddenly pressed down, as if the gravity had doubled tenfold in an instant.

His body that had just stood up suddenly swayed and he almost fell to his knees.

He pressed his hands firmly against the ground, barely holding on and not falling completely.

Zhang Yi's pupils shrank suddenly, and he suddenly looked up at Hu Qi, his throat rolled, and he didn't have time to say anything out loud.

boom!

The power surged again, like a mountain pressing down.

He could no longer hold on, and was pushed to the ground violently. His cheeks were pressed against the cold floor, and even breathing became difficult.

Zhang Yi's heart was shaken violently, and a vague voice came out from between his teeth:

"You... you are actually an evolver..."

Evolvers, as the name suggests.

Itself refers to individuals who have exceeded the current limits of ordinary humans.

The abilities they possess may take the form of physical enhancements, mental leaps, or the awakening of some supernatural power.

The reason why he was so shocked was based on his understanding.

Although there are also evolvers before the end of the world.

But they are basically physical.

For example, strong strength, fast speed, quick reactions, etc.

But they basically belong to the human category, and there is nothing too amazing about their performance.

Only when the end of the world comes, the world changes, and there is a special substance in the air.

Only these evolvers will be enhanced, and evolvers with other abilities will appear.

But now that there are still three months until the end of the world, how could an evolver with this ability appear?

Moreover, with the strength of the other party, after the end of the world, he is definitely not an unknown person. Why haven't he heard of him in previous lives?

Or is it that the other party died before the end of the world.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through my mind.

Subsequently.

Hu Qi The next words came, but his pupils suddenly shrank, as if he had been struck by lightning.

"I can help you Termination in this apocalypse, Reincarnator, don't test my patience."

Hu Qi's tone was calm, but his eyes were firmly locked on Zhang Yi as if they were real.

"Your abilities come from that special heart, and your resilience is really good."

"However, resilience alone is not enough. If you are sealed in concrete and sunk to the bottom of the water... for you, this immortal resilience will turn into a never-ending torture. What do you think?"

His voice remained steady.

But the cruel meaning revealed between the lines made Zhang Yi feel as cold as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

Zhang Yi was silent.

He no longer tried to fight.

In front of this person, he seemed to be naked, and all the details were clearly seen.

Except for the fear he felt when facing the apocalypse in his first life, in the following lives, no matter how powerful and terrifying the enemy was, he never felt such emotions again.

But at this moment, the long-lost fear came again, and it was even more terrifying.

The sense of oppression brought to him by the man in front of him was too strong.

After a long time, the pressure on his body disappeared, and he finally spoke, his voice dry and hoarse:

"How on earth do you know all this, and what do you want from me?"

"How do I know that you don't have to worry about it? All you need to do is cooperate with my research, and I can help you become stronger!"

Hu Qi said lightly.

While talking.

On one side, the door was gently pushed open.

A middle-aged man wearing sunglasses and a jacket walked out slowly.

Zhang Yi recognized the other party at a glance.

That is the mayor of Qiyan City.

Once upon a time, Zhang Yi did not consider cooperating with the official.

In his third life, he got in touch with the official through the other party.

However, although cooperation has achieved some results, it also brings a lot of troubles.

After all, that kind of apocalypse is not something ordinary people can resist.

Even if you really need people to help you do things, you can set up a gathering place in the future and be the dictator yourself.

Moreover, if you really want to live in the end of Termination, the only one you can rely on in the end is yourself.

Ordinary numbers are of little use when facing those monsters in the apocalypse.

Only the evolver is everything.

"Follow me and tell us everything you know about the end of the world!"

Qiyan City The mayor smiled.

He looked at Zhang Yi in front of him, and there was a strange color in his eyes behind the lenses.

Zhang Yi nodded.

In this situation, there is no point in resisting.

Unless he commits suicide and see if he can start the eighth life.

But he had a hunch that even doing that would be of no use.

Watching Zhang Yi leave with each other.

In the room, Hu Qi turned to look out the floor-to-ceiling window.

Fingers tapped lightly on the armrest.

Eyes showing thought.

After he came to Qiyan City, he used his own power to control and hypnotize the official personnel there.

Then he started looking for a young man named Zhang Yi, who was about twenty years old.

The power of the official machine is terrifying, especially in this information age.

Several suspicious targets were quickly screened out.

Found Zhang Yi from it.

The other party is exactly what Evolution Heavenly Venerable was transformed into.

In a way, he is also the protagonist of this time and space.

Once time and space are reset, the opponent's memory will also be reset.

However, since the previous changes in time and space, problems have arisen in the end of the world.

The memory of the other party is preserved, which is the so-called seven reincarnations.

But in fact, the other party has been reincarnating.

Just now, he had analyzed Zhang Yi.

Except for the memories of previous lives and the special heart in my chest.

The other party is not much different from ordinary indigenous people.

It's a pity, even so.

His analysis also failed and he did not get what he wanted.

It's not Zhang Yi's problem.

But the strength of his body is limited, and this side of time and space has not yet evolved to its peak, unable to carry his excessive power.

After all, if it were really that easy, Nuwa and others wouldn't be able to wait until now.

But Hu Qi is an exception.

His Twisted Light talent can ignore this time and space barrier, but he still has to wait.

Only when the power of this time and space grows to a sufficient level can his true power come.

As for whether Zhang Yi could escape during this period.

Hu Qi doesn't care at all.

After he showed his power.

As long as the other party is not a fool, it is impossible for him to do this.

Of course, the more important point is that he has left a mark of Psionic Power on the opponent. Even if Zhang Yi runs to the ends of the world, it is impossible to escape from his grasp.

"Is it the end of the world? Come on! I can't wait!"

Hu Qi whispered to himself, the corners of his mouth raised.
