Sweep across the Doomsday Proving Ground [Unlimited]

The figure of Gu Chengye shooting the gun was the last scene before Xu Zhuo lost consciousness.

The pattern on the neck brought a burning pain, penetrating into every capillary inch by inch, like cold metal, constantly cutting and scratching the skin.

And this feeling, Xu Zhuo was unexpectedly familiar.

The scene deep in my memory appeared in front of my eyes again in fragments, my skin was scorching hot, and a man led him out of the fire in the flames...

Just then, the cold mechanical system sound came in.

[ID3C218, congratulations on successfully passing the level]

[This is your completion report, the dungeon name is Test Site No. 4005 Sunset City, the difficulty is SSS level, and the collection of extreme mood swings is 0]

The blue font appeared in the air, and Xu Zhuo's eyes gradually became brighter.

He was on a white circular platform, surrounded by countless reference parameters, and these coefficients gradually gathered in front of him after the system sound.

The subjects who were with him were also standing on the test bench at this time, each looking at the settlement system in front of them.

Due to the change of the timeline, all members of the test site survived.

This may be unprecedented for the test site of the siege, so there are several supernatural beings standing beside the test stand.

It didn't take long for the new font to appear again.

[According to various aspects of performance, referring to action factors, decisiveness and logic ability, this field ranked first among the 4370 experimenters in the test field. ]

[Congratulations on getting a commission of 900. ]

[The dungeon took 12 hours and 40 minutes, breaking the historical time record. ]

[Congratulations on getting a commission of 400. ]

There was a commotion in the crowd.

"It's the first time I've seen so much money..." Lin Cheng looked at Xu Zhuo with joy in his tone, "Now I won't have to worry about running out of food next time I'm besieging the city!"

Chen Shuang patted Lin Cheng. This was the first time she looked relaxed after entering the dungeon: "You just want to eat."

Xu Zhuo looked at the rewards and numbers in front of him expressionlessly.

The system continues to broadcast.

This time, different settlement numbers and pages appeared in front of each subject.

Generally speaking, the greater the horror factor contributed by the subject, the more correspondingly, the more additional commission rewards will be.

Lin Cheng looked at the page in front of him with rising numbers.

Looking at the extra 200 commission reward in front of him, he rubbed his hands excitedly, then looked at Xu Zhuo—and suddenly shut up.

"Brother, you..." He opened his mouth as he looked at the page that appeared here on Xu Zhuo.

See what the system says——

[The scope of this collection: α fear wave, β extreme vent wave, δ panic behavior wave. ]

[α Fear Wave: 0]

[β extreme vent wave: 0]

[delta panic behavior wave: 0]

[Evaluation level: low, deduct commission 130]

[Comprehensive grade evaluation is extremely low, 100 commissions will be deducted]

[Use illegal time travel, break the rules, deduct commission 20]

……

The system didn't seem to be relieved until the deductions were completed, and it desperately deducted downwards, as if venting something.

Xu Zhuo snorted softly, and looked at the system in front of him calmly.

After the system operated for a while, the broadcast stopped.

Lin Cheng looked at the deduction items on the screen: "Brother, how much do you have left?"

Xu Zhuo glanced at the screen: "125."

As soon as he finished speaking, another message popped up from the system.

[Due to improper behaviors attacking the internal behavior of the supernatural organization, 125 commissions will be deducted]

Lin Cheng: "..."

He waved his hand and said to Xu Zhuo: "It's okay, brother, I'll treat you to a meal when I go back."

Xu Zhuo didn't say a word. For some reason, his eyes fluctuated slightly when he saw the last item.

Billing appears to be over.

Four subjects standing around stepped forward.

They wore long blue lab coats, and their faces were ashen and expressionless.

One of the tall thin men stepped forward, looked around at the subject, and then said: "Congratulations, everyone, I am the order officer No. 2305 who is in charge of this rest period. "

"No. 0435, which provides rest, is now open. You can take a rest temporarily and wait for the commission to be paid."

It is said to be a rest, but it is actually a place to read the rules of the siege.

The experimenters here are almost always holding a booklet, which is densely written with the rules of this organization—most of them are useless, but some of them can be regarded as life-saving rules.

For example, the data cable on the arm is not detachable, the rest area is open for one week at a time, and the data provided to the researchers can be divided into many sub-categories——

For example, it can be subdivided into human's seven emotions and six desires, which can be precisely entered into the system to provide research.It can also be strictly calculated to generate a unified emotional index, which is concisely and intuitively reflected on their chips.

However, regarding this type of rules, the subjects just looked at it, and more of them waited for the commission to arrive, and then went back to rest.

"Congratulations to the subjects whose names are listed below, for surviving, please accept the organization's lofty compliments and blessings, please don't bustle, and leave in order."

“ID5W45号，ID3E121号，ID8Q137号。”

……

He mechanically broadcast, and the subjects left one by one.

When the broadcast reached No. 7Y345, Lin Cheng turned his head to look at Xu Zhuo. Just as he was about to speak, he heard the No. 2305 say, "The broadcast is over."

Lin Cheng: "?"

Is this missing someone?

Lin Cheng came to his senses immediately: "Brother, don't you..."

Before finishing speaking, No. 2305 walked up to Xu Zhuo at this time, stared at him and said, "ID3C218, is Xu Zhuo right?"

Xu Zhuo looked up at him.

"The chip collection is abnormal, follow me to the investigation room." No. 2305 said, "Colonel Gu Chengye is waiting for you."

investigation room.

Like the one in the three-district branch, each floor of the five-story building is divided into a single room for the supernatural beings to conduct separate investigations.And the innermost room on the fifth floor is Gu Chengye's office when he usually goes to the second district.

When Xu Zhuo walked into the room, Gu Chengye was standing in front of the window with his back turned.

The light from outside the window came in faintly, falling on the documents, paper and pens on the table, lengthening the shadows.

Xu Zhuo frowned for some reason.

"Colonel Gu." No. 2305 held a data pad in his hand and bowed respectfully, "This is the person who the headquarters asked for a key investigation, and I brought it to you."

Gu Chengye let out a "hmm".

No. 2305 lowered his head, put the data pad on the table, and took a few steps back out of the room.

The room was eerily silent.

Xu Zhuo stood not far from the table, looking at him with a cold face.

"We met again." Gu Chengye turned and leaned against the window, with a hint of teasing in his eyes, "Looks like he's a regular customer."

Xu Zhuo snorted lightly.

"There are a total of ten test sessions, and the number of times that no emotions were collected is ten." Gu Chengye picked up the data pad and stroked it with his fingertips carelessly, "No, including this time, there are eleven times in total."

Xu Zhuo: "Are you doing math?"

"You have to be optimistic about the number of times before you can decide what to do next." Gu Chengye said, "The organization here is very strict about this kind of undetectable data. You should be glad that you are only in the second district investigation room now."

Xu Zhuo snorted again.

"So when will you let me go?" he asked.

"It depends on the investigation of the organization." Gu Chengye said as he pulled out his chair and sat down. After taking out a gel pen from the pen holder by the table, he leaned over his desk and wrote something on the document.

Xu Zhuo folded his arms and looked at him for a few seconds, lowered his eyes, and didn't look at him again.

There was a long silence.

After a while, Gu Chengye finally closed the last document.

His dark eyes fell on Xu Zhuo who was resting in front of him, and he suddenly laughed, as if interested: "Aren't you afraid?"

"What are you afraid of?"

"If you can't leave, you have to..."

Gu Chengye raised his arm and touched his own chip with his finger.

"All the subjects need to be screened." Xu Zhuo said suddenly.

Gu Chengye nodded: "Indeed."

"You were also a subject in the last game."

"Yes." Gu Chengye seemed willing to continue this topic, his eyes slightly narrowed, "So?"

Xu Zhuo looked up at him: "Then you can't escape."

Gu Chengye laughed.

He leaned back in the chair, a fleeting appreciation flashed in his eyes: "Interesting."

"Do you usually enter the testing ground as a subject?" Xu Zhuo asked again.

"This subject seems to have a lot of problems." Gu Chengye looked at him, "But don't forget that this is an investigation room now."

Xu Zhuo snorted.

At this moment, there was some movement behind them.

No. 2305 was standing at the door, holding a thick stack of documents in his hands.

It may be that no subject has ever spoken to Colonel Gu in such a tone, and even No. 2305, who is a supernatural being, was a little dazed.

It wasn't until the eyes of the two people in front of him fell over at the same time that he came back to his senses and knocked on the door.

"Colonel Gu." No. 2305 bypassed Xu Zhuo, and put a thick stack of documents on the table, "This is the investigation situation of the headquarters."

Gu Chengye hummed lightly, motioning to put it on the table.

Looking at the two of them, number 2305 suddenly felt a little out of place.

He didn't know where this feeling came from, because the superhumans themselves had no emotions. For such intuitive feelings, supernatural beings generally could only retrieve human emotion data from the database for analysis.

Therefore, Gu Chengye, as a human being, can pass an emotionless inspection and become their colonel. From this point alone, No. 2305 still admires it.

But now there is one more human being who may admire.

2305's eyes fell on the pile of documents.

——Just now, the headquarters conducted corresponding investigations on the entire test site, and confirmed that there was no problem in the test site. At the same time, it was also confirmed that Xu Zhuo's chip was operating normally.

After coming out of the investigation room, Xu Zhuo kept a cold face.

Seeing him coming out, Lin Cheng, who was waiting anxiously not far away, called "Brother" and ran over quickly.

He stared at Xu Zhuo for a while, as if he wanted to see someone out, until he was sure that the chip in his hand was intact, then he took a long breath.

"Did they do anything to you?"

Xu Zhuo: "Check it out."

"and then?"

Xu Zhuo: "Just left."

Lin Cheng said "ah", "That's it?"

Xu Zhuo glanced at him lightly.

"Don't get me wrong, brother." Lin Cheng waved his hand, "The people who come out of this investigation room are either dead or crazy, so I'll ask."

Seeing that Xu Zhuo didn't speak, Lin Cheng whispered to him again: "Just now another batch of problematic people went in. I think it's very lively here every day."

Xu Zhuo hummed, he raised his eyes and glanced somewhere on the fifth floor, and then looked away.

For some reason, he always felt that this floor was very familiar, but he couldn't say why.

At this moment, Lin Cheng suddenly said, "Brother, you..."

He hesitated.

Xu Zhuo: "What's wrong?"

"No, nothing." Lin Cheng scratched his head.

Xu Zhuo stopped and looked at him.

After struggling for a while, Lin Cheng said, "Are you hungry? Let's go eat."

At this time, it was five o'clock in the afternoon when the city was besieged, and the bell tower in the second district rang several times.

In the drizzle, Lin Cheng and Xu Zhuo walked on the side of the street, bypassing several subjects who were begging because they had no commission, and walked towards the third district.

In the siege, this situation has long been commonplace.

After all, the testing ground is a testing place, and some subjects were unable to go to the testing ground after being injured and returned to the besieged city.

With only a little commission left, what awaits them in the inner city of the siege can only be death.

It's scary to say, even if you know that going to the test site like this is death, there will still be people with injured legs sneaking into the team, and then they will be expelled by the supernatural beings.

They walked through a long alley and finally arrived at a place to eat.

I saw the iron sign that said must eat in the three districts of the besieged city fluttering in the wind, and the lights inside were brightly lit.

"Brother, have you ever been here?" Lin Cheng turned around and asked.

Xu Zhuo frowned slightly and shook his head.

Seeing his puzzled expression, Lin Cheng suddenly became more courageous: "I didn't say, brother, you have lived for more than 20 years, and you just stay in one place."

As soon as the words fell, he met a pair of light-colored and cold eyes and stopped talking.

After entering the door, the boss saw Lin Cheng coming over, as if seeing an old friend, he laughed so hard that his creases piled up, and then fist bumped Lin Cheng.

"I'm an old acquaintance." Lin Cheng said to Xu Zhuo after taking his seat, "Last time at the test site, I gave him a hand on the edge of the cliff."

As he said that, he pushed the menu towards Xu Zhuo: "Brother, just order it, the boss has a discount."

The materials for the siege are not in short supply, but the ingredients are not cheap either.

Not to mention in the few restaurants.

When the order was finished and the number was called, Lin Chengcheng took out the commission bag and counted the coins one by one, like every treasure.

Xu Zhuo didn't speak, he sat on the side, his cold eyes reflected the warm light, as if he was thinking about something.

Suddenly, his eyes fell on the poster posted not far away.

This is a promotional paper that is so old that there are only blurred shadows left, but the title on it still caught Xu Zhuo's attention.

News bookstore.

A very special name.

"What are you looking at?" Lin Cheng came over with two plates of steak, and followed Xu Zhuo's gaze, "What are you talking about?"

He put down the steak and said in a low voice, "This store is in the outer city, and it's under the jurisdiction of the black market."

"black market?"

Lin Cheng hummed: "Brother, don't you know?"

Xu Zhuo frowned.

Seeing this, Lin Cheng took a random advertisement from the bar and drew several circles on the back.

The pencil scratched the paper and made a "rustling" sound.

"No, this is the black market." Lin Cheng drew a triangle on the outer circle, "It's the closest from the third district, and the second and fourth districts are also fine, but you have to go around the city gate."

Xu Zhuo: "What's in the black market?"

"There are so many things to play with." Lin Cheng gave a look, "There is everything, there is nothing unexpected."

He said, and put an asterisk next to the triangle: "The news bookstore is here."

"There are some storybooks, magazines and reading materials in it." Lin Cheng continued talking with his pencil, ""The outer city is only this big, and the output of this book is also from folk workshops, and then Then steal the past. "

He paused as he spoke, and then said: "Actually, there are not many people who buy books, and more people go to inquire about things. The news there is well-informed, and you can find out all the big and small things in the past ten years of the siege of the city. That’s why it’s called the News Bookstore.”

Xu Zhuo's eyes fell on the asterisk.

"have you been there?"

Lin Cheng shook his head: "No matter how many people there are in the outer city, it's not safe."

After a while, he seemed to be thinking about something, and moved closer to where Xu Zhuo was sitting.

"I heard..." Lin Cheng lowered his voice, "You can still check people there."

Xu Zhuo looked up at him: "What do you mean?"

"The dead and the living can be checked." Lin Cheng said, "There is nothing they can't find unless you can think of it."

"Anyone can?"

Lin Cheng gave a "hmm" and nodded as a matter of course: "Anyone is fine."

After a few seconds, he seemed to come to his senses, opened his mouth and said, "Brother, you won't..."

Xu Zhuo didn't speak again, as if he was thinking about something.

The crowd was bustling in the restaurant, and he leaned on the back of the chair with his arms folded, out of tune with everything around him.

"Are you crazy?" Lin Cheng looked around and mouthed softly, "Colonel Gu, do you dare to investigate?"

"It's not impossible."

Lin Cheng didn't come up in one breath, and was about to say something when Xu Zhuo got up.

"Can I leave the city now?"

"Should...can?"

"Then I'll go to the black market."

"?"

Before Lin Cheng could react, Xu Zhuo disappeared into the vast rain.

The author has something to say: the second update is still being written, and it will be updated in a while
