After an Infinite Flow Player Retires

There were no stars or moon in the blood-colored sky, and there was no trace of dawn, and the entire city was shrouded in a massacre of red light.

On the streets and between buildings, countless monsters and ghosts burst out from the dark gaps, instantly turning the world into hell.

Like a particularly absurd and cruel dream.

Police planes circle the sky:

"...Residents are requested to stay at home, block doors and windows, and do not leave the room..."

How pale.

Everyone knows that walls and doors cannot stop monsters and ghosts, but the monsters on the streets and in open spaces are even more terrifying. They may have a chance of survival if they hide, but once they escape, they will definitely die.

After discovering that the situation was wrong, the Administration contacted the police and the military as quickly as possible, and dispatched members of the Combat Section to each block to teach them how to use props to fight ghosts as quickly as possible.

However, they have never encountered such enemies, let alone received relevant training, and they even know for the first time that those dark, weird, and disgusting creatures do not only exist in childhood fantasies .

Weapons and supplies to deal with supernatural creatures are in short supply.

They could only hold human weapons and stare at the various monsters that seemed to crawl out of a nightmare.

There are a total of 150 permanent members of the Combat Section in M ​​City, and with the addition of other non-frontline branch members who can barely be regarded as combat members, the total number is less than 200.

But what they faced was a black supernatural army, which swept towards the real world like a roaring mountain and a tsunami.

It was overwhelming terror, suffocating despair.

The asphalt road cracked a huge gap, making a cracking sound, and a monster with a foul-smelling mud flowing all over its body climbed out from the ground. It was three stories high, and its tentacles made of mud fell heavily on the ground. , the spider web-like cracks spread instantly.

Below it, is a small human team.

"Fire!" shouted the leader.

The flames of the shots lit up in the dark street, but the specially made bullets sank deeply into the monster's body like a mud cow entering the sea.

It was enraged and let out a deafening growl.

The road crumbled under the weight like cardboard, and the surrounding floors trembled

"Retreat! Retreat!" The people below shouted hoarsely.

It's too late.

Countless sticky mud limbs stretched out from its body, tore through the air, and attacked the lifeless human on the ground.

——Then, he froze in the air.

People raised their heads in shock and fear, only to see a black silhouette appear above the monster. He was so light, passing by like a silent wind, and bounced lightly onto the back of the mud monster.

Immediately afterwards, the crescent-shaped sickle was raised, and the blood color of the sky was reflected on the blade.

The sharp blade fell down, like a soft kiss from the god of death, and slid across the opponent's neck without resistance, just like cutting tofu with a sharp blade without any trouble.

In the next second, the head of the mud monster rolled down, and its huge body fell apart instantly.

The viscous mud lost its form of support and spread and flowed on the street.

The dumbfounded people raised their hands to wipe off the mud splashed on their faces, but when they looked in the direction just now, the figure disappeared without a trace as if it had come, if it weren't for the fact that the street was not enough to reach their feet With the mud on their wrists, they almost thought that the scene just now appeared in their imaginations.

"Just now, did you see that person just now?" One of them asked with some uncertainty.

"I saw it..." "Yes, I saw it too."

Such a shocking knife, beautiful but cruel, precise and cruel, seemed to be able to take everyone's breath away in an instant, as if it was deeply burned into their souls, and it was impossible to forget it after seeing it.

"Did you take the readings of that monster just now?"

"A, Grade A."

Silence ensued.

They have never heard that there can be humans, that they can fight against A-level monsters single-handedly, and even...

Spike.

The same question lingers in everyone's mind——

Who is that unknown terrifying strong man?

"Could it be someone from the bureau?"

"Impossible." One of them said firmly, "Otherwise, it's impossible for us not to have an impression."

The rest of the people nodded in agreement.

Just as they were preparing to tidy up and continue to fight other monsters, they saw a small team suddenly appearing from the darkness in the side street.

Wu Su ran in the front, he looked very tired, his forehead was dripping with sweat, his face and lips turned pale due to exhaustion, but his eyes were amazingly bright.

"Brother Wu?" The leading member of the Combat Section was taken aback: "Why did you come here? Where is the block under your jurisdiction?"

"It's been cleaned up, and so are the two passing by." Wu Su's breathing was rapid, and a trace of excitement flushed his cheeks. He asked, "How about you? Do you need our help?"

—Yes, they've cleared three whole blocks.

Wu Su had teamed up with ace before, and he knew the opponent's fighting style.

Simple, clean, and straight to the point.

He focused on ignoring the group of ghosts all over the mountains and plains beside him, pointing directly at the strongest and most difficult ghost among them, and dealt with the backbone of the entire group of ghosts with the fastest speed and the highest efficiency, as if he was conducting a precise battle. Surgery, and he was the sharpest point on the scalpel.

Every level in Ligui is a natural moat.

The sense of oppression and impact brought by one A-level ghost is incomparable to a hundred B-level ghosts. When the most difficult ones are eliminated, the difficulty of cleaning up the remaining ghosts is greatly reduced.

After ace joined, Wu Su could immediately feel the fighting pressure of his team shrink instantly.

Morale soared immediately.

All the people rushed forward as if they had been injected with chicken blood, and even the ordinary members who had never had the experience of fighting ghosts no longer panicked. They roared and rushed towards the living corpses on the street.

This is the first time they entered the battle with the desire to win tonight.

It was like dominoes, one fell, and the rest collapsed naturally, and soon, one block, two blocks... three blocks.

With an absolute disadvantage, they reversed the situation and turned defeat into victory.

——Humanity began to counterattack.

They left a part of their staff to continue to clean up the remaining monsters in the block and stick to their hard-won victory.

The remaining part of the people chased ace to support other areas.

Ace never looks back, and never stops, but he will always appear in everyone's sight, like a clear-cut symbol, silently encouraging and comforting other comrades behind him.

Distant but clear, firm and calm.

The blood-colored sky is still dead and silent, but there is some aggressive torrent secretly surging beneath it, changing the direction of the entire situation.

The other party seemed to be aware of the loss of their own advantage.

"Tick."

A clear dripping sound came from the center of the city in the distance. The sound was not loud, but inexplicably, everyone could hear it clearly.

The moment the sound fell, everyone, even ordinary people without spiritual vision, felt it.

Something has changed.

The temperature in the air dropped rapidly, and it became extremely cold. The living corpses who were walking unconsciously stopped suddenly. There was something agitating deep in their blue-white skin. Immediately afterwards, the protruding blood vessels and meridians Breaking through the skin, thick yellow blood gurgled down.

The reading of the recorder worn around his waist suddenly skyrocketed, making a piercing beeping sound.

"Just now, they were still E-level just now!" One of the members said in horror: "Now, now they have broken through D-level, and they are almost at C-level!"

It was a devastating blow to the morale of humanity just sorting itself out.

After all, there is only one ace, and he needs to deal with the most powerful high-level ghost.

When the other ghosts were still low-level, they were enough to deal with it, but when all the low-level ghosts jumped up one level in unison, everything changed.

——The other party wants ace to be exhausted, and let ghosts and monsters overwhelm them with numbers.

Ye Jia stopped.

Standing on a high place, his tall and slender figure was like a black silhouette under the dark red sky, or a wound cut open by a sharp knife on the curtain of the sky.

Ye Jia looked steadily towards the direction of the city center.

there.

He could feel that the weird power was still spreading, and if it wasn't stopped in time, the whole situation would be irreversible.

but……

Ye Jia lowered his eyes, and his eyes fell on those humans who were struggling on the street.

The human team that had just been organized just now was vulnerable to the opponent who suddenly became stronger. They struggled to support and fought hard.

Perhaps it was because he had been away from the game for too long that his heart, which had been trained on the edge of life and death, became softer.

Ye Jia's knuckles were slightly white.

He never knew he cared—he couldn't save them.

When he dreamed back in the middle of the night, the shattered picture appeared before his eyes again.

A shrill scream sounded in the darkness of the eternal night, and the blood-stained pale face reached out to him in despair, "Help me, save me!" Those voices echoed in his ears, urging, screaming It's deafening.

And the self in the dream turned around blankly and walked deeper and deeper alone.

Ye Jia's fingertips lost their color due to the force.

—no one could save them.

He has to go.

Before it's too late, rush to the city center and destroy the force that drives all ghosts and monsters crazy.

Ye Jia withdrew his gaze, turned and left just like in memory.

A living corpse with four arms on its back rushed towards a logistics member who had no other skills, opened his mouth and bit his shoulder—"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" echoed in the streets, but no one could save him, and everyone was fighting with their lives.

Ye Jia's footsteps stopped suddenly.

He remembered this voice—in the office, this voice once asked him with a smile, Brother Ye, would you like a cup of coffee?

Brother Ye, are you off work?

Brother Ye, do you want to have dinner together later?

He smiled and took out his wallet, and pointed out the photos in it to Ye Jia: Look, is my daughter cute?

……Oh shit.

Ye Jia turned around, and a sharp blade appeared in his hand.

However, before he jumped down, the ground below suddenly turned a muddy scarlet color, bulging, and then, a white goat's skull appeared from below, and it gracefully emerged from the Float below the ground.

Everyone's detection instruments issued deafening alarms, but before they could do anything, they saw that terrifying monster slowly swinging its huge body and swimming around them, the invisible force was like Scattered around like a sharp blade.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the living corpse with four arms burst open.

It swam silently on the streets, and wherever it passed, there were severed limbs everywhere, but none of the humans were injured.

The blood gu fish raised its head, stared at Ye Jia standing above with its dark eye sockets, and then wagged its tail at him.

Ye Jia was slightly stunned, the paleness on his knuckles faded unconsciously.

He came back to his senses, hooked his lips uncontrollably, and said in a low voice:

"……Good boy."

After confirming that the crisis was over, Ye Jia habitually pressed down his hood, then turned and jumped towards the city center.

His figure is nimble and light.

The edge of the sickle fell, and another A-level ghost wailed and died. Their figures and strength were absorbed into the sharp blade like a fluid, making it sharper and more shining.

The blood gu fish followed closely behind him, swimming in the streets below.

Humans stare blankly at this terrible monster swimming above their heads, the pale bones are covered with flowing blood, and the huge goat skull is frightening, but every time it passes by them, The ghosts and monsters seemed to be chopped into pieces by countless sharp blades, and they turned into pieces in an instant.

Ji Xuan asked, "Is everything here?"

Ami lowered her head: "Yes."

Its fuzzy face twisted slightly, as if it was suppressing some unbearable impulse.

The effects of the props used by Lord of the Flies not only affect the ghosts lurking in the city, but after all, they have evolved sanity and self-awareness, so their resistance is stronger.

But even so, it is still difficult for them to suppress their instinctive desire to kill.

"Very good." Ji Xuan lowered his scarlet eyes: "Go out and quell this rebellion."

"Existence other than human beings is your enemy." A cruel smile rose from the corner of his lips: "I promise you, you can eat freely this time."

Watching all the high-ranking ghosts leave one by one, Ami leaned over and asked cautiously:

"Well, Wang, may I ask, this time the blood gu fish...?"

Ami knew that as a precise and large-scale AOE, the blood gu fish was the most suitable monster for this scene, but for some reason, the blood gu fish, who had always been inseparable from the king, was not by his side this time.

If it followed its previous courage, it would never have dared to ask this question.

But it seems that it is the effect of Lord of the Flies props that makes Ami bolder.

Ji Xuan raised his eyes, and his gaze fell on Ami as if there was something substantial.

Amy flinched.

"It's already gone." Ji Xuan's voice was low and calm, and he didn't seem to be irritated by the other party:

"It has a more important mission this time."

—he too.

In the sewer.

A dense swarm of flies shuttled through the dark underground pipeline, more flies were attracted, and the swarm of flies gathered in everything.

Soon, Lord of the Flies' figure became clear and stable again.

He breathed a sigh of relief with lingering fears in his heart. Fortunately, he had prepared in advance and completed the arrangement of the prop in the city center, and prepared a remote activation method, otherwise he really didn't know how to get out this time.

Although Lord of the Flies knew that Ji Xuan was his mother's direct descendant, he never thought of such a terrible power gap.

It's terrifying.

If it wasn't for the fact that the other party still worried about his mother's existence, Lord of the Flies suspected that he might be crushed to death on the spot.

It seems that the subsequent actions should be more cautious.

He never wanted to confront Ji Xuan again.

The body of Lord of the Flies made of swarms of flies passed through the small opening of the sewer, and then reassembled into a human form on the street. However, before he could decide what to do next, he felt that something was not right in his body. Satisfied.

On his arm, a small patch of flies fluttered slightly.

The next second, a drop of scarlet blood floated out, quietly suspended in front of Lord of the Flies.

Lord of the Flies complexion changed drastically.

not good!

However, before he could turn around and run away, the space in front of him was suddenly torn apart by a streak of bright red blood.

In the next second, Ji Xuan's figure appeared in front of Lord of the Flies.

Lord of the Flies immediately dispersed his body, but it was too late.

The red translucent barrier firmly imprisoned its figure, no matter how the swarm of flies inside hit it, it remained motionless like a wall.

Lord of the Flies was spinning around in a hurry.

But the barrier in front of him didn't have the slightest gap. Under such a huge power gap, he had no possibility of escaping.

Ji Xuan walked forward unhurriedly, with that drop of scarlet blood floating in his pale palm.

He said, "Why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

The surrounding barriers slowly squeezed towards the middle with his voice, and the buzzing flies swarmed like a dark cloud, wriggling densely in the narrow space, and the voice of Lord of the Flies gnashed his teeth. Lai: "...Ji Xuan, what are you doing?"

"No matter what, I'm still the king." Ji Xuan lowered his eyes and said slowly, "Don't you know the price of betraying the king?"

Lord of the Flies: "...you!"

It seemed to realize that it had nowhere to escape this time, so it suddenly calmed down.

Lord of the Flies sneered, "However, since you are willing to spend time with me here, it seems that mother's plan has worked."

Ji Xuan frowned indistinctly.

"Hahahahahahahahahaha!! It seems you are still confused!" The Lord of the Flies laughed triumphantly: "Our goal has been that human being from the beginning! Ace! Kill him, and the mother can recover, but , under your obstruction, it seems that this matter is not going very smoothly..."

Lord of the Flies giggled, "That's why I came here to carry out the second plan."

"As long as he is transformed into one of us, everything will be solved, right?"

His voice became vicious and cheerful: "Ji Xuan, no one should know better than you, what will happen next?"

——The gate of ghosts is opened, and the ghosts are mobilized, with only one purpose.

That is to make him stronger, scarier, and closer to an inhuman existence.

Lord of the Flies' laugh is particularly sinister:

"After all, there are only the two of you in the mother's direct line."

·

city ​​center.

The number of ghosts here is simply outrageous.

The scythe drew a bright arc, and Ye Jia's figure was like a sharp blade, straightly piercing through the dense siege of heavy ghosts, like the god of death coming again, harvesting the ghosts in front of him one by one.

After their bodies were destroyed by his weapon, they melted into misty blood mist, drifted towards Ye Jia's body, and turned into a part of him.

The more he eats, the stronger he becomes.

Ye Jia could clearly feel that he was becoming stronger and stronger at an extremely terrifying speed, as if there was an insatiable monster stretching his curled limbs in his body, showing that he was huge and incomparable The body let out a silent sigh of satisfaction.

--Keep going.

The monster that might have taken several rounds to kill could not last for a few seconds under his hands at this moment.

Ye Jia's whole body was filled with abundant energy. Wherever he passed, the ground was in a mess, and countless powerful ghosts fell under his death scythe, and then were quickly swallowed.

He could feel the call of some kind of power in front of him.

Tick.

Tick.

There was some liquid falling in the darkness, making a clear and subtle sound, separated by the roars of countless ghosts and monsters, it was still clear as if it was ringing in my ears.

Ye Jia came to the bottom of a building.

Unexpectedly, the front hall of the building was dark and clean, without any trace of ghosts and ghosts. It was dead silent and empty, which was normal and weird.

Tick.

The sound of water droplets falling sounded again.

Ye Jia suddenly realized the silence in his ears.

He turned his head, only to find that there were no other ghosts behind him.

It's like... they don't dare to approach this direction.

The blood gu fish that had been following Ye Jia suddenly opened its mouth and grabbed Ye Jia's trousers, seemingly preventing him from walking forward.

Ye Jia bent down and patted its head: "Don't worry."

The blood gu fish did not let go.

Ye Jia had no choice but to pull his trousers out from the mouth of the blood gu fish: "I have to go."

Here is the source.

If the source is not cut off, the alienation of the whole city will not end.

Ye Jia turned around and walked calmly into the building.

The blood gu fish was circling anxiously at the door, making a "woo-woo" sound, but it could only watch Ye Jia's back being swallowed by the darkness inside the building.

The lobby is very quiet.

The blood-red light from the sky came in through the glass door and fell on the dark ground, like a large bloodstain, like a murder scene.

Tick.

The sound of water droplets falling became clearer and echoed in the empty hall.

Ye Jia's brain was buzzing, like a rusty machine that was difficult to operate.

There seemed to be nothing else in his ears, only the lonely and uniform sound of water droplets.

Tick.

His legs moved forward automatically.

The closer you get, the stronger the traction ahead becomes.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Ye Jia finally came to the source of the sound.

In the darkness, a blood-red sarcoma quietly floated in mid-air, it was only the size of a fist, abundant liquid seeped out from its uneven surface, and dripped onto the floor—tick-tock.

A thin layer of red has accumulated on the ground, like some kind of messy graffiti.

The scene in front of him was weird and terrifying, but looking at it, Ye Jia couldn't help but feel a kind of...

An unspeakable calm.

It was as if the wanderer had finally returned to his long-lost hometown, and the quiet feeling of exhaustion stretched out in his body, spreading from his heart to his fingertips little by little.

Reliable, warm, close, and accommodating.

It's just like……

mother.

keep going.faster.Be able to go home in no time.

A voice from the bottom of my heart urged.

The long-lost, longed-for, and unattainable peace is ahead, and there is only one last step to get it.

Obviously, he didn't need to breathe, but the little black hand felt suffocated under the fear and pressure - it couldn't come in, every cell in its body was screaming to leave.

However, because it was tied to everything with Ye Jia, it was pulled into the building abruptly.

The further he went, the more frightened the little black hand became.

It hugged and shook Ye Jia's neck, screaming: "Run! Run! Wake up!"

It stretched out its hand and pulled Ye Jia with all its strength, trying to pull him in the opposite direction, but the other party seemed to be trapped, walking forward slowly but unstoppably, step by step Approaching the existence of that little black hand instinctively felt fear.

It floated in front of Ye Jia's face, trying to shake him awake with his hands.

However, before the little black hand could make a sound, the rest of its voice was stuffed back into its throat——

I saw the young man staring fixedly into the distance, the eyes that were originally as shallow as glass turned into black as thick ink, like a bottomless abyss, under which the dangerous and terrifying darkness swirled slowly, as if it could dispel everything. The devouring vortex.

In that dark depth, reflected a small, scarlet dot.

The red sarcoma is close at hand.

More juice is secreted and falls to the ground.

Tick, tick, tick.

The sound of water droplets became hasty, as if urging something.

The young man stretched out his hand slowly, his fingers were slender and pale, like the clean snow in a winter night, the cold fingertips moved forward little by little calmly.

Just before approaching the sarcoma——

Suddenly, the other hand firmly grasped his wrist. That hand was slightly larger than his palm, with well-defined joints, and held his hand in his palm extremely forcefully.

The young man's dark eyes moved slightly, and a trace of blankness passed through his eyes, as if he didn't understand what happened.

A hand came around Ye Jia's back, and the cold palm gently covered his eyes.

Behind him, a strong chest pressed against his back.

The other party's deep voice came close to his ears, bringing up a slight tremor:

"Shh."

"Don't look."
