Fantasy Game: Infinite City

three days later.

Because the "landing" location was too remote, and Han Zu didn't have a mobile phone or anything like that with him, he took some time to run back towards his home.

Fortunately, the place where he landed was not too far from City C, only two or three cities away, and there were many mountains nearby, so the speed was fast enough, and it only took three days to return to the scope of City C. However, he did not rush home, but returned to the vicinity of the processing plant first, preparing to drive the car parked here back.

However, after arriving at the location where the car was hidden, Han Zu discovered that the car had been driven away. After searching the surroundings, he found some snow that had been cleared away from the original location of the car. On the tree next to it, he found two tooth marks and a unique scratch on it. There were also some signs of corrosion on both sides of the scratch.

Han Zu knew that the tooth marks on the tree came from his two Death Hounds, and the scratch should have been left by Garcia. They must have found this place based on the smell they left and the residual energy reaction, and drove the car back.

It took some time to return to the warehouse, but I didn't see the hounds and Garcia inside, and I couldn't sense their location through sensing. Han Zu's current range of perception of them is enough to cover the entire City C, which means they are not in City C at the moment. After changing clothes, Han Zu decided to go out and look for them.

However, when he was about to leave the warehouse, Han Zu found a note behind the door of the warehouse with the word "computer" written on it in Garcia's handwriting.

I went to the computer and turned it on. There was an extra folder on the desktop, which contained some screenshots and a video left by Garcia.

"I'm going on a long trip, so I don't have time to talk much. I'll take the dog with me. Oh, and there are some problems in the bathroom that need to be fixed."

The video was very short and did not contain much content. The few screenshots left behind seemed to have some problems, as they were all menus of takeout restaurants that Han Zu often ordered from. However, the menus in the screenshots accurately cut out all the things that Han Zu liked to eat.

"It seems that Garcia must have discovered the surveillance personnel outside the warehouse, which is why he thought of using this method to leave coordinates."

Since Han Zu only ordered a few items when ordering takeout, he remembered the prices very clearly. He always paid the original price, so the prices of those takeouts should be the coordinates left by Garcia. Han Zu was not familiar with that coordinate at all, and it should not be in China.

Walking to the bathroom door, Han Zu noticed that the gaps in the door were blocked by some plastic wrap. He opened the plastic wrap, and a large amount of light gray gas began to flow out. This was Garcia's poison gas.

When he opened the bathroom door, he saw several bodies scattered in the bathtub. The floor had been cleaned simply, but there were still some residual bloodstains. The concentration of poisonous gas was very high. It seemed that Garcia had made some adjustments to the ventilation facilities in the bathroom to prevent the poisonous gas from leaking out.

There must be a living person hidden among these corpses, otherwise Garcia would not have to do this. Moreover, the poison gas itself is corrosive to living things, but there is no sign of corrosion on those corpses.

As he got closer, Han Zu discovered that these corpses were not normal humans. Although their appearance was almost the same, their skin felt very wrong. It was like soft flesh-colored metal.

Han Zu tore off the arm of a corpse. There was no bleeding at the broken part. Looking inside through the gap, he did not find any bones, flesh or other tissues, but a large amount of liquid metal-like substance. However, Han Zu had dealt with liquid metal many times, so he was sure that these things were not liquid metal, but something else.

After checking all the corpses, Han Zu showed a serious expression. According to his inference, the reason why Garcia went to so much trouble to fill the entire bathroom with poison gas was probably to stop the movement of living things. Although these corpses had many abnormalities, it could be sensed that they were already dead. Why did Garcia place them in such an environment? Han Zu did not know for the time being.

In order to confirm the situation, Han Zu began to absorb the remaining poisonous gas and quickly cleared it up. After the air in the bathroom returned to normal, about ten minutes later, the corpses began to move again. After moving for a full half hour, the corpses came back to life, but their movements were sluggish, like damaged robots.

Han Zu raised his hand and waved it in front of their eyes, at least where the eyes were, but they didn't react. Han Zu gently attacked one of them, but they still didn't react. These strange things stood in the bathroom and soon became motionless.

Han Zu placed his hand on one of the things and began to absorb its energy. The result surprised Han Zu. The residual energy on these things was negligible, not even as much as that of a mouse. However, the energy required to absorb their energy was more than that of a person whose strength was almost the same as Han Zu.

Han Zu tried to inject energy into them again, but they were completely unable to absorb it and were even eroded by Han Zu's energy. The thing that Han Zu used as a test subject turned into a pool of energy-free sticky liquid, which flowed onto the floor of the bathroom and then quickly solidified into a gel-like substance.

Thinking back to the video left by Garcia, there were no signs of fighting in the warehouse in the background, which meant that Garcia should have subdued these things easily. For such a thing, Garcia would not forget to clean them up. Even if she was in a hurry to go out, there was only one possibility for her to lock these things in the bathroom in such a complicated way, that is, she had no way to get rid of them.

Han Zu tied up these strange things, including the one that had turned into gel, with his tentacles, and took them out of the warehouse and came to the back of the warehouse. There was a big pit here that Han Zu had dug before, which was specially used for cleaning up garbage. Han Zu usually threw all the garbage into the big pit and then burned them all with fire.

Throwing these things into the pit, Han Zu blew out flames, ready to burn them to ashes, but until the bottom of the pit turned into magma, those things were not completely burned, but gradually began to melt. After noticing this situation, Han Zu temporarily stopped burning, lit a cigarette and began to think.

"They can withstand high temperatures, and the extremely high temperatures do not make them glow, which means that the original composition of these things is a high-temperature resistant liquid. After cooling and condensing, although they still feel like metal to the touch, their elasticity is very close to that of human skin. This kind of material... why do I remember seeing it somewhere?"

Han Zu spewed flames into the deep pit from time to time to ensure that the inside of the pit would not cool down due to the cold weather. At the same time, he searched his memory for the material that made up those things. When the cigarette in his mouth was half burned, he finally found the memory of that material in his memory.

When I first came into contact with the Creation Engine.

At that time, Han Zu built a third body for himself, which was the leader's body. One of the raw materials used at that time was these things. However, Han Zu immediately denied this judgment because there were still some differences between them.

"No, I have definitely seen this thing before. Where is it..."

Following this line of thought, Han Zu thought of the corrupted and modified creation engine he had seen under the island of the rat removal company when he first met Garcia. Thinking carefully, he could confirm that the containers installed in those corrupted locations contained this material.

"The work of the board of directors? No, if it was them, they wouldn't have embarrassed themselves by making some unfinished products. Could it be that the rat removal company did it themselves?"

However, Han Zu couldn't figure out what was going on for the time being. After he gave his all and increased the firepower to burn these things to ashes, Han Zu called Garcia.

Garcia can communicate normally, and with the protection of the hounds, there should be no problem with safety. After talking to Garcia, Garcia was not clear about the specific situation of those things. She did not go far away for this matter, but it was indeed related to the rat removal company. However, she did not say what she was going to do specifically.

"By the way, I have to tell you about the manor. I sold it."

"Oh."

"Don't you want to ask why?"

"It's not important, just be safe."

"I know. I'll be careful, but it might take a month or two before I go back."

"Such a long time?"

"Well, this is very important to me, and... I hope you won't come to me before I contact you. Please."

"Ah."

After a few pleasantries, Garcia hung up the phone. There was something wrong with Han Zu's behavior, but according to Garcia's understanding of him, abnormality might be normal, so he didn't take it to heart.

As for Han Zu, after hanging up the phone, he did not return to the warehouse, but walked straight to a small road behind the warehouse. There was a car parked in the shadow. It was one of the teams that was monitoring Han Zu.

"Shit! Headquarters, he found us! What should we do?"

"Hold on! Don't do anything to anger him. If he asks you something, just answer it. Saving your life is the most important thing. Remember that!"

"understand!"

"Tuk-tuk-tuk."

Han Zu walked to the driver's seat of the car, but he did not suddenly jump up and turn the car and the people inside into a thousand-layer cake. He just stretched out his finger and knocked on the car window.

“Sizzle…”

The car window was opened, and Han Zu threw something to the passenger seat, which scared the person in the passenger seat. At this time, Han Zu opened the back door and got in the car.

"I won't waste my words. I have no problem with you guys monitoring me. The thing I threw to you is related to the rat removal company, but it seems to have nothing to do with the guys on the board of directors. You can check it out."

Han Zu's tone was calm, and there was nothing unusual about it, but this did not make the two people in front completely relax. The driver accidentally honked the horn because of nervousness, which immediately stunned him and the person in the co-pilot seat, and they dared not move. At this moment, Han Zu's hands reached out from behind and placed on their shoulders.

"Do you smoke?"

The two men slowly turned their heads and found that Han Zu was not angry because of their actions. He just had two cigarettes in his hand and paid for them.

"Thank...thank you."

After lighting the cigarettes, the two men's emotions stabilized a lot, but they were still not completely relaxed. However, the subsequent conversation with Han Zu finally made them relax.

"Don't be so nervous. You have been monitoring me for at least a few months. If I really wanted to take action, I would have done it a few months ago. I wouldn't have waited so long. Relax. As long as you two don't commit suicide, your lives will not be in danger."

"You...have discovered us a long time ago?"

"Well, that's not important. What I mean is that there's nothing wrong with you monitoring me... You should adjust the communicator properly, it's off frequency. Anyway, what I mean is that you shouldn't be so nervous. By the way, let's get down to business. Go back and check that thing. There's a big problem with it."

What Han Zu had thrown to them before was the arm that Han Zu had torn off, but now it had lost a lot of its vitality and had almost no movement at all.

"If you're not here to monitor you, then is this why you came to us?"

"No, I'll leave this to you. I have to go to the city center for something else. Garcia took my car away. I've just been running for a few days. Although I'm not very tired, I'm tired of running these days. I really don't want to move. You guys are here, so I'll give you a ride."

"Then where are you going?"

"First, find a random restaurant and have something to eat, then send me to your airport, and there's nothing else to do after that."

"Can we ask where you are going?"

"I'm not sure, but as long as it's a research institute under your jurisdiction, it will be fine. It's best if it has complete equipment and sufficient security."

"What do you want to do?"

"I'll give you something. If I'm not mistaken, the sparks on my hands when I jumped off the transport plane were caused by you, right? I have to say, it's a bit too deliberate. It's just a half-broken cave, I didn't set it on fire, and it's so cold outside, how could the ice cone melt and drip water?"

"You've already...?"

"Yes, but that's not important. I have no objection. As for what I'm going to do now, if your superiors are not stupid, they should have guessed it. Let's go and stop wasting time."

Han Zu was taken to the city center by hitchhiking. He found a random restaurant and ate something, then continued to take a ride to the airport. It didn't take long before he arrived at an island, which was a research center under the chairman.

"I still don't know why you are so keen on building secret facilities on islands. Although the secrecy is guaranteed, the security is much lower."

After exchanging a few pleasantries with the person in charge who came to receive them, Han Zu, under his guidance, entered the elevator leading to the underground research institute. A few minutes later, he arrived at the gate of the research center.
