Karst Cave

Shake.

Bumpy.

Qing Chen felt as if he were drifting in the ocean, like a rootless duckweed, not knowing where he was going to drift.

He gradually awoke from his coma, but he did not open his eyes.

It wasn't because I was worried about being tortured again after waking up, nor because I didn't want to face reality.

The main thing is that it feels pretty good to have someone carrying him on a stretcher now...

At this moment, the person carrying the stretcher whispered, "Why hasn't he woken up yet? Could it be that his brain was damaged during the third possession?"

"It's hard to say. Zhao Jie is dead, and the machine is broken. We really don't know his current condition... But this is a good thing. If the machine hadn't malfunctioned, maybe that person would have let us continue trying to possess someone else's body. You've seen it yourself, no one who tries to possess this kid's body has a good ending."

At this moment, only three of the Kamiyo assassins remained near Qing Chen...

The familiar footsteps of Kamiyo Yunhe were no longer heard; he seemed to have gone somewhere else.

However, Qing Chen did not act rashly. On the one hand, his body had indeed reached its limit, and on the other hand, Kamiyo Yunhe, though seemingly arrogant and tyrannical, was actually cautious.

The other party must be nearby, somewhere they can catch him at any time.

Moreover, there are still people carrying the stretcher now. If you kill someone and still manage to escape... then there won't even be anyone left to carry the stretcher.

But then they heard the three continue whispering, "Do you think Kamiyo Yunhe will kill us to silence us, like before?"

"Possibly. After we left, we all heard explosions behind us. Although they were far away, it must be that the people who rescued this kid tracked him down to the farm," someone said. "This means that the kid's reinforcements are very close. If Kamiyo Yunhe wants to travel light, he will definitely choose to eliminate us."

After all, Kamiyo Yunhe is an A-level, so even if he carries Qing Chen by hand, he can travel faster than if they carry a stretcher.

Qing Chen's heart stirred upon hearing this!

Does this mean he has a chance to be saved?

The boy silently made plans, unsure if his body could withstand another battle, but if Kamiyo Yunhe wasn't there, he could take a gamble.

Kill these three and reunite with your rescuers before Kamiyo Yunhe returns.

Before Qing Chen could come up with a plan, the footsteps of Kamiyo Yunhe could be heard in the mountains.

Kamiyo Yunhe coldly said to the three assassins, "Why are you moving so slowly? Speed up, don't linger here."

Qing Chen sighed inwardly, realizing that even in his prime, he could not possibly escape from under the nose of Kamiyo Yunhe.

At this moment, one of the stretcher bearers said suspiciously, "I think I saw this kid's eyelids twitch."

"Huh?" someone asked doubtfully. "Really?"

The group observed Qing Chen for over ten minutes but found nothing unusual. "Maybe I'm just seeing things..."

Qing Chen thought to himself how close he had come to needing to get out of bed and walk.

He closed his eyes tightly, silently sensing his body.

Something seems different now.

But Qing Chen couldn't pinpoint what was different.

He had fainted after filling the graves for the producers, so he was unaware of what happened afterward.

Now that he has awakened, the first thing that seems strange is that there is another person's memory file in his Memory Palace.

Qing Chen roughly understood that this must be another head that the gods had sent over while he was unconscious...

That's too kind of you.

The person who provided the memories is named Zhao Jie, born in the north, from a single-parent family.

Zhao Jie's 24 years of life have been quite ordinary, but what Qing Chen should pay attention to is that the person who selected him to join Orochi is very mysterious, and even Zhao Jie has only met him once.

Etc...

Qing Chen suddenly felt something was wrong. This Zhao Jie was clearly living with a single mother, but she was not poor. Every once in a while, someone would regularly send her money and gifts.

Zhao Jie's identity seems to hold some hidden secrets.

At that very moment, Qing Chen noticed something strange about the blood.

In the rolling blood.

There seems to be a boiling factor.

Nanorobots?! Qing Chen's consciousness had long been connected with those little guys. Hundreds of millions of nanorobots drifted in his blood, like dust, or like brilliant starlight.

With a thought from Qing Chen, the tissues drifted with the blood to the wound and quickly gathered, forming bionic muscle tissue that filled the wound.

As the wound slowly heals, the little creature gradually withdraws from the muscle-like tissue, making room for its own healing.

Qing Chen was puzzled. When did these little guys enter his body, and when did they become so obedient?

Although nanorobots had previously entered his brain's gray matter, once the neurons reconnected, they would very strictly return along the same path.

Now... it's completely different.

Qingchen controlled the nano-robots in his body, sometimes arranging them into a "human" shape, and sometimes into a "one" shape. Those little guys were extremely obedient and obeyed his will 100%.

Gradually, Qing Chen discovered the first function of these nanorobots: clearing subcutaneous necrotic tissue and blood clots, and connecting wounds.

It's worth noting that in his first battle with the wolves, he was bitten and scratched countless times, with many muscles torn.

This kind of injury is a direct blow to combat effectiveness.

No matter how strong your will is, once your muscle fibers are torn, you can't exert any force.

Now, nanorobots can help Qing Chen fill this gap.

Although we don't yet know how strong these little guys are, at least we can guarantee that he can move around freely until he fully recovers.

"That's strange. Isn't it said that the Federation's nanorobots are not allowed to enter and stay in the human body? Moreover, all nanorobots are programmed with fixed procedures when they leave the factory, so there should be no abnormalities," Qing Chen wondered to himself.

He knew very well why the Federation had made such a regulation: it was because the last human civilization, which was destroyed by the Omnic Crisis, had nanobots as its most troublesome problem.

This is the most unsolvable weapon in the hands of Artificial Intelligence.

The group moved quickly through the mountains and fields. Urged on by Kamiyo Yunhe, everyone quickened their pace.

At one point, Qing Chen noticed that Kamiyo Yunhe seemed to have a goal and was in a hurry to reach a certain location.

Several hours later, the group stopped in front of a cave.

The Central Plains region is rich in karst caves. For example, the famous Jiguan Cave Scenic Area is located in the Outer World the cave. Beneath the cave lies a complex maze, and even deeper inside, there are rushing underground rivers.

When Kamiyo Yunhe saw the cave, he breathed a sigh of relief. Qing Chen, however, felt a sense of foreboding. If the other party had left through such strange terrain, it would be very difficult to find them.

The problem is, even if the Age of Gods had intelligence agents infiltrate the Central Plains, they wouldn't be able to figure out the entire terrain of a cave, would they?

At this moment, Kamiyo Yunhe raised his arm and spread his five fingers towards the cave.

From the darkness of the cave, the sound of flapping wings grew louder and louder.

The next moment, countless bats suddenly surged out of the cave like a black tide, with the largest one hanging upside down on Kamiyo Yunhe's arm.

Qing Chen secretly opened one eye and looked over... He happened to be facing a Kamiyo assassins.

The Kamiyo assassins exclaimed in surprise, "This kid was awake a long time ago!"

Qing Chen: "..."

That's really awkward.

However, it seemed that Kamiyo Yunhe's mind was not on Qing Chen. This expert from the Kamishiro Corporation was very calm. He simply cut his wrist and used his blood to draw strange symbols on the bat's body.

It was only at this moment that Qing Chen suddenly realized a problem: Kamiyo Yunhe before, then he could control bat swarms now.

No wonder the Gods of Ages sent this person to the Central Plains to kidnap him. It's because of the Kamiyo Yunhe's ability to use animals and wild beasts in nature to cross terrains that are difficult for humans to traverse without anyone noticing!

"You've all worked hard, but for the great cause of the conglomerate, some sacrifices are needed," Kamiyo Yunhe said. Just then, a swarm of black bats descended from the sky, surrounding the three Kamiyo assassins.

Within two breaths, the bats dispersed again, and the three Kamiyo assassins had become skin and bones, dried-up corpses, their blood drained!

The swarm of bats that had fed on blood seemed to have become an army, completely obeying the orders of Kamiyo Yunhe.

Kamiyo Yunhe smiled at Qing Chen on the stretcher and said, "Get up now that you're awake. I know you're thinking about how to escape and rejoin the people who are rescuing you. But don't bother. Since Shen Dai sent me to the Central Plains, there must be a reason. I'll show you the power of my abilities later."

Kamiyo Yunhe pulled on the rope and walked into the dark cave.

Surprisingly, Kamiyo Yunhe seemed to completely ignore the darkness as he walked, always able to anticipate where there were obstacles and where there was a path.

The stench-filled bat army split into seven or eight groups, one of which stayed with Kamiyo Yunhe, while the rest flew into the cave.

Kamiyo Yunhe never hesitated when choosing a path, as if he clearly knew where he should go.

The bat army guided him on his way.

The Kamiyo Yunhe and the Bat Legion are connected at heart!

Qing Chen discovered that the individual combat ability of this Kamiyo Yunhe might not be as good as other A-level experts, because he had to rely on external forces.

However, in terms of functionality, this A-level expert's abilities are incredibly diverse.

A cave that might require thousands of people to explore is no obstacle at all for Kamiyo Yunhe.

Qing Chen suddenly thought of a question: if he could really kill Kamiyo Yunhe one day, he should find a deserted place and bury him.

Then wait decades to reap the Forbidden Item created by the other party.

The effects of this Forbidden Item may prove surprisingly effective at crucial moments.

If even a shadow can grow tea on a superhuman, then growing Forbidden Item on an enemy shouldn't be a problem, right?

Of course, there are also hidden dangers in doing this. A Forbidden Zone that can be formed at the A level is probably quite a threat, and the Tribunal of Taboos probably wouldn't allow itself to do so.

The two walked down the cave, and gradually, Qing Chen heard the sound of rushing water.

Inside the cave, water vapor condensed on the hanging stalactites, dripping onto the ground one drop at a time.

At this moment, Kamiyo Yunhe took out a flare from his pocket and lit it up. There were already 8 sets of diving equipment placed here!

He cut open the wound on his wrist again, letting the blood drip into the underground river.

A sense of foreboding rose in Qing Chen's heart once again, but then he saw, illuminated by the light of the flare stick, a huge creature seemed to be swimming towards him from the depths of the underground river.

It has four limbs, a body shape like a salamander, and is terrifying and ferocious.

Kamiyo Yunhe looked at Qing Chen and smiled, "Guess what? If I take you and swim hundreds of kilometers through the underground river, will those people who rescued you still be able to find you?"

Only one chapter today. Time to rest and spend time with family.
