Chapter 9 Adam (4)

Zhang Xun stumbled all the way back to the Lab, and immediately ordered Pan to block all entrances and exits as soon as he entered the door, and activated the air strike defense system. He himself rushed to lock Adam's room.

The ground shook, and strands of dust from the ceiling fell on his head and body from time to time. Countless light bulbs shook violently and fell from the sky like bombs from time to time. He dodged in embarrassment all the way, but his forehead was still scratched by broken glass, and his vision was stained red with blood. He didn't have time to pause, and rushed all the way to the fourth floor. As soon as he entered the room, he saw Adam huddled in a corner, holding his head in his hands. His clearly strong and tall body shivered and curled up into a ball with a frightened look.

The instinctive fear in the human body cannot be overwritten by wisdom and reason.

Zhang Xun hurriedly rushed over, calling softly, "Adam."

Adam raised his head, his eyes burst out with relief and joy like seeing a savior, and Zhang Xun felt a little shocked in his heart because of the pure reliance, after all, no one had ever looked at him with this kind of gaze. He stretched out his hand to pull Adam's hand, but he didn't expect to be caught by Adam's backhand. He held it so tightly with both hands, as if he was afraid that he would run away.

"Don't be afraid, the protective cover of Paradise Lost can withstand the simultaneous attack of 70 million tons of bombs, and the Lab can withstand an additional 10 million tons. As long as it is not a super nuclear bomb, we will be fine." Zhang Xun comforted in a low voice road.

"I would not suggest the use of nuclear bombs, the cost is too high, and the loss outweighs the gain." Adam said the overly rational words in a fearful tone, which is somewhat contrary to his usual image, "It turns out that this is caused by the survival instinct. Strong emotions. I understand humans better now."

"Now is not the time to lament this." Zhang Xun looked up to see if there were any potential safety hazards around him. Just as he raised his head, there was a deafening roar and violent shock, the light bulbs on the ceiling shattered one after another, and the fragments fell like a rainstorm. Without even thinking about it, Zhang Xun immediately hugged Adam and covered the debris with his body. The two hugged each other tightly amidst the doomsday-like loud noise and the continuous sound of collapse and cracks, completely unaware of what would happen in the next second.

Outside, the explosions rang out, the ground shook, and the seemingly infallible Lab seemed to be collapsing on top of their heads in the terrifying bombing at any time. At this moment, Zhang Xun once again felt the helplessness and insignificance of people when death is approaching. You can't do anything, you can only hide in a place you think may be safe and wait for the result of the trial. It is no wonder that there have been so many religions in human history, even in today's extremely advanced technological level, there are still people who believe in religion.

Although a considerable number of people in the ordinary world now believe in the "Eden" religion, also known as the New God religion. The object of their belief has changed from a god to a super artificial intelligence that does exist, but in essence, it is not much different from those god worships in the past.

And now, the god they spoke of was snuggled up with a frail male human, trembling with fear like all living beings.

After a disturbing silence, there was suddenly an extremely strong earthquake. The loud noise caused a strange pressure in the ears, and the scalp was numb. Zhang Xun closed his eyes tightly, hugged Adam tightly, and suddenly a thought crossed his mind: Are we going to die with this artificial intelligence?

However, after the loud noise, the buzzing bombardment gradually subsided, and the ground no longer shook. But Adam still hugged him tightly. After all, it was the body of a strong man who had undergone rigorous training from the guards. A pair of arms that were clearly not exaggerated in muscle almost strangled Zhang Xun to death.

"Relax...relax..." Zhang Xun struggled, but the other party just buried his head in his arms and refused to let go, like a frightened panda after an earthquake.

"Adam, the bombing seems to have stopped." Zhang Xun saw that he couldn't get away from the struggle, so he had to relax his body and let the opponent strangle him with his arms. He comforted softly in a gentle tone, "Relax, it's okay, we're safe..."

Adam carefully raised his head and looked around over Zhang Xun's shoulder.

Zhang Xun shook the ashes in his hair, coughed a few times due to choking, and raised his head to look around. There was a hideous crack in the opposite wall, all the lights were shattered, and the TV screen on the wall was also cracked. A metal pipe fell from overhead, smashing Adam's bed. However, the gate does not appear to be deformed or damaged.

At this moment, he suddenly felt a hand touching his forehead. As soon as he turned his head, he saw Adam staring fixedly at his blood-stained forehead, "You are injured. The injury is not serious, but there is still a certain risk of infection."

Zhang Xun's heart warmed up, and he tried to look relaxed, "Don't worry about me, it's just a skin injury. How about you? Are you injured?"

"I don't think so," Adam said, looking down at himself.

Zhang Xun breathed a sigh of relief, raised his head, and tried to call Pan.

Pan's voice sounded immediately, "Yes, Zhang Xun."

"How's the situation outside?"
