Fantasy Game: Infinite City

a few minutes ago.

"Minister, you have to see this!"

"what happened?"

In a certain area of ​​the Infinite Company's headquarters, some people are observing a large amount of data in a secret facility underground. The people here are all from the chairman's faction, and they are monitoring the activities on the eve of the guild competition.

Suddenly, an employee walked up to the director eagerly and handed him the terminal. It showed the activity records of several players in the dungeon, but it didn't look special.

"Isn't this normal? All data is normal, the event is going on without any problems, and the dungeon location is also... Wait, Aurora Hotel?! How did they get in?! That place is not within the scope of the Guild Tournament Eve event?"

The Aurora Hotel is a notoriously weird place. Although not everyone knows the specific situation, most people know that this place is abnormal. Of course, to be on the safe side, large-scale events and competitions will not choose such a problematic copy, but it just happens to appear in the copy roulette.

"Can you close this instance? How many players are there in it?"

"What just showed up was... What happened? Why did this copy disappear from the roulette wheel again?!"

The Aurora Hotel, which was obviously in the guild competition event roulette, suddenly disappeared again. However, through the overall data, it can be learned that at least ten people are still in the Aurora Hotel.

"What union are they from?"

"Strange, why can't I find any specific information?"

"What about real-time monitoring? Is it still working normally?"

"No, the signal suddenly cut off."

The minister asked the employees to continue observing the situation while he walked out of the room and informed his superiors. The superiors told him not to worry because they were fixing the problem.

The one who received the news was the research department that was communicating with Han Zu. They said that they were repairing the problem, but in fact they had no idea what had happened because everything looked normal on their testing equipment.

"Contact Han Zu immediately and tell him about this situation."

But when the communication was about to be connected, all signals were interrupted for a few seconds. Even the power system of the scientific research department suddenly failed for the same amount of time. When the power was restored to normal, they could not contact Han Zu.

"The signal was severely interfered with, and we couldn't contact him!"

"Copy model!"

The person in charge who was in contact with Han Zu asked his employees to immediately call up the copy model of the Aurora Hotel. They were surprised to find that the coordinates of the Aurora Hotel and the area where it was located were changing. According to the estimated time, in 21 hours, the coordinates of the Aurora Hotel would deviate from their original position, which means it would suddenly disappear.

"Try other methods to see if we can contact Han Zu. If we can see him, that's fine too!"

The staff around immediately began to try various methods to contact Han Zu or obtain his information, but most of them failed.

"I'm connected to Han Zu's screen!"

"Project onto the main screen!"

One of the researchers, who himself didn't know what he was doing, suddenly connected to Han Zu's screen. The screen showed a dark corridor at the end. Han Zu was fiddling with something in front of a security door. His strong build blocked his movements.

Behind him, there was a woman holding a submachine gun, who seemed to be on guard while talking to him. However, the people on this side of the screen could not hear their conversation.

"How is the transmission device? Can it operate stably?"

"No, the spatial coordinates are constantly changing. Although we can still lock onto Han Zu's approximate location due to his special characteristics, if we want to successfully teleport him back, he needs to manually set an accurate stable node to do so."

"Everyone, put aside everything else and find a way to contact Han Zu! Quickly!"

"understand!"

Han Zu, who was in the Aurora Hotel, didn't know what exactly happened, but everything that happened around him was not normal. However, one thing was certain, that was someone, or something, didn't want Han Zu to leave the second underground floor. As for Xu Li, maybe she was just unlucky.

"How is it? Can we go out?"

"Click!"

With the sound of the bolt breaking, the security door was opened from the hinge side, and the security door was folded towards the screen, revealing a space large enough to pass through. Han Zu looked outside, then directly left the corridor through the opening.

While Han Zu was observing the outside, Xu Li next to him took a look at Han Zu's hands. This time, not only did they not burn violently, they didn't even turn red. Xu Li thought carefully, but the best way at the moment was to follow this strange man.

After passing through the security gate, there is a strange hall behind. The hall is connected in all directions and there are several paths to walk on. Of course, this place is out of the range of the security gate and there are no emergency lights, so only Han Zu can see the surrounding environment clearly. In Xu Li's eyes, it is completely dark here.

Out of instinct in the dark, Xu Li lowered his body cautiously and looked around. Not far in front of him were two light sources emitting faint red light. They should be Han Zu's eyes. At this distance, Xu Li could also smell some residual smell of burning tobacco.

Han Zu's attention was not on Xu Li behind him, but on carefully observing his surroundings. According to what Olivia said before, the first and second floors underground were still the same as before, which was the hotel's parking lot. No matter what was in this hall, it should not appear in this location.

Moreover, the biological signals that Han Zu sensed just now became unstable and intermittent. His ability of perspective did not see any specific enemies, but there was nothing wrong in this hall. But it was this point that made Han Zu feel that something was wrong.

A feeling of tension that had not appeared for a long time slowly crept into Han Zu's heart. It seemed that a fierce battle might break out soon.

However, Han Zu temporarily suppressed his nervousness and began to use his perception ability to confirm Ms. G's location. Fortunately, the connection was not disconnected, that is to say, Ms. G's location was still within the perception range. By comparing with his own location, Han Zu could basically confirm that he was on the bottom floor of the Aurora Hotel, a location that Olivia might not even know.

Because Ms. G's position was above him, and that place was the real underground second-floor garage.

Han Zu's current location is not the third underground floor. The location of the Aurora Hotel has been renovated by Olivia into an underground casino. Today is special, so Olivia closed the casino and it is not open for business.

The last time he came to the hotel, Han Zu had not yet evolved his perception ability, so he was not sure whether this location really existed under the hotel or was an anomaly.

However, the top priority now was to find the identification card on Ms. G. Han Zu quickly adjusted his mindset and began to look for a way to leave this floor.

The personal terminal disguised as a watch suddenly vibrated, and Han Zu began to check the message on it, but it seemed to be seriously interfered with. The information on it was a mess of garbled characters, and it was impossible to determine what it meant. But Han Zu could probably guess that the people outside had also discovered that something was wrong with the Aurora Hotel.

"Buzz~boom!"

Suddenly, a loud noise attracted Han Zu's attention. In his perception range, at the end of one of the routes in the hall, the security door there was also destroyed, but in a more noticeable way. And just after the loud noise appeared, the biological signals that were sensed before also began to move in the direction of the sound.

"Drip."

I don’t know if it was the interference caused by those creatures, but after they left Han Zu for a distance, the people outside successfully contacted Han Zu. After Han Zu received the communication, they quickly informed Han Zu of what was happening.

Han Zu thought for a while and gave his own suggestion. He decided to get the identification card from Ms. G first. After all, the task was already half completed.

"Han Zu, there is a location with abnormal energy to your northwest. You can leave the space you are currently in through that location."

“Did I trigger something in this space, or was it man-made?”

"It's unclear at the moment, but we haven't found any abnormal energy signals in you yet."

Xu Li, who was standing by, didn't fully understand the deal between Olivia and Han Zu, but Olivia had told him that Han Zu was not only extremely dangerous, but the forces behind him were even more so, so as long as it didn't affect one's personal safety, one should try not to cause trouble. So although Xu Li clearly heard the conversation on the communicator, she pretended not to hear anything and consciously walked a little further away until she heard how to leave this position, and then she returned to Han Zu again.

Following the guidance of the communication, Han Zu quickly found the location of the energy anomaly. It was an abandoned elevator shaft that had been forgotten. Through his ability of perspective, Han Zu discovered that the elevator inside had gone to who knows where, and the metal cables were broken and piled on the ground.

"Squeak..."

Han Zu opened the outer door of the elevator, confirmed the distance, found an angle to jump, grabbed the bump next to him and climbed up. Although Xu Li below did not have the abnormal physical fitness of Han Zu, she was also agile and gradually caught up with Han Zu. After a few minutes, Han Zu could feel that he had passed through a layer of unstable energy film and returned to the Aurora Hotel.

Through perception, Han Zu and Xu Li finally returned to the Aurora Hotel after passing through some spaces sealed by concrete. However, when they passed through the sealed area and returned to the parking lot on the second underground floor, they found that it was full of strange atmosphere. Various vehicles parked here had lights flickering.

Suddenly, a cold wind blew that shouldn't have appeared in this place, and Han Zu looked around vigilantly. At this time, a group of mysterious figures appeared in front of them, led by a stranger in a black cloak.

Han Zu stopped tapping the gun with his index finger and put it on the trigger, ready to deal with possible threats. Xu Li, who noticed Han Zu's actions, quietly stepped back a few steps and watched both sides vigilantly.

"Ms. G's helper?" Han Zu said.

The stranger was silent for a moment, then slowly took off his cloak, revealing a pale face. He looked at Han Zu, with a hint of ferocity in his eyes.

"boom!"

A gunshot rang out suddenly, and a bullet pierced the stranger's forehead. He fell to the ground with a ferocious look in his eyes and died.

"Bang bang bang bang!!"

Han Zu suddenly jumped up and quickly approached the crowd, firing continuously with the large-caliber pistol in his hand, emptying the magazine in an instant. After knocking everyone down, he quickly searched their bodies, and after finding no key items, he quickly sprayed flames to burn them to ashes. The whole process took less than five minutes.

The moment Han Zu made his move, Xu Li had already left here and took the elevator to Olivia, so she did not see this scene, which saved Han Zu some trouble of conversation.

Ms. G's position suddenly changed. She must have teleported again, but this time she appeared in the lobby on the first floor of the Aurora Hotel, very close to the gate. This was not a good sign.

In order to save time, Han Zu immediately followed Ms. G through the stairwell and arrived at the first floor lobby.

While observing through his clairvoyance behind the door, Han Zu discovered that Ms. G walked out of the Aurora Hotel, but did not leave. Instead, she went around to the side of the hotel and talked to someone for a while, and it seemed that they exchanged something with each other.

Han Zu was still some distance away from them, so he didn't see clearly what they exchanged. If it was an identification card, that would be troublesome.

Ms. G had skin fragments left on her body, which could determine her location at any time, so Han Zu immediately bypassed the crowd and followed that person from a distance. However, unexpectedly, that person did not leave the Aurora Hotel. Although he did not enter the hotel, he was wandering around the periphery of the hotel.

Han Zu noticed his abnormality, enhanced his perception, narrowed the range, and increased accuracy. He found that there were some teleportation anchors emitting unstable energy outside the route that person moved. Judging from the texture of the energy, it seemed that it was not the work of Infinite Company, but something more low-level. However, they were more stable than the teleportation anchors of Infinite Company.

Maybe I can use these anchor points later, Han Zu thought to himself, but just when his thoughts were distracted, the man suddenly disappeared.

After searching for a while without any results, Han Zu immediately returned to the hotel. It seemed that he needed to speed up his actions. After Han Zu confirmed the exact location of Ms. G, he immediately chased after her.
