Chapter 290, Library
Jiang Xingni remained hidden in the shadows, watching the people come and go.
The people who were supposed to be there to meet them had already spotted the light belonging to an acquaintance and were about to go over and say a few kind words when they saw nothing at all.
In the dim darkness of the night, the newcomer could only see something on the ground that seemed to be a few shades darker than the surrounding darkness.
After he looked down and examined it closely, he saw a severed hand.
……
What should be the first reaction when someone sees a part of an acquaintance's body?
Even for superhumans who are used to life and death, it's hard to remain calm in a situation like this.
Fear and anger will make them just like the ordinary people they despise.
If you cut off a person's wrist, where is the rest of their body?
Regardless of whether this was dismemberment or not, the arteries had been severed, and without the ability to heal superhumans, his colleagues would only be left to die.
But now, his first reaction upon seeing the severed hand was not one of sorrow for the passing of a fellow human, but of fear.
Someone was able to infiltrate with a severed hand, and even now, that person hasn't appeared on the watch's minimap.
The news of his murdered colleague never even got out.
How can he guarantee that he will be the one who escapes unscathed?
Why was he the one who survived?
Jiang Xingni is very good at hiding himself.
He hid in the shadows, his shadow blending into the shadow of the corner of the wall. With the flickering firelight, no one could notice that there was even someone hiding in the corner.
She calmly watched as the previously composed contact person's expression suddenly changed drastically.
After looking around and not noticing Jiang Xingni, he hurriedly left.
Immediately afterwards, the previously orderly crowd became disorderly.
【Isn't this alerting the enemy?】The system was confused, completely unable to understand what Jiang Xingni was doing.
Jiang Xingni casually opened his mini-map.
Normally, we shouldn't expose the anomaly now, lest we alert them and they hide all the important information, leaving us with nothing.
—But that's during normal times.
Normally, there wouldn't be any light spots to pinpoint each person's location in real time.
If nothing unusual happens, with a bunch of light spots gathered together, Jiang Xingni will still need to explore every place. Although it's not exactly difficult, it's still too troublesome.
Now things are much better.
In the immediate aftermath of chaos, those who are evacuated are always the most important.
Jiang Xingni waited for a while, his back to the light, his golden eyes inconspicuous in the darkness.
Her gaze was clear and focused on the few places that had first become chaotic.
The messengers moved back and forth between the clustered points of light.
They wanted to block out the light spot—unless their own people died—but they also knew very well that in the VOID-modified copy, death meant true physical death; they would not be able to open their eyes again in the real world after death.
The fear of death led everyone to do similar things at this moment.
run.
Who knows what the madman's purpose was in cutting off someone's wrist?
Many of them are not even official VOID employees; they are still in their internship period.
Jiang Xingni didn't care who these people were.
Under the light, everyone's name was a question mark, and as she expected, Jiang Xingni did not see He Jingtong's name here.
That's way too conspicuous.
No matter how you look at it, He Jingtong would never expose himself at this time.
So what exactly is He Jingtong's position in VOID?
She used the system to transmit the coordinates and data to Bureau 49 outside the instance, and then infiltrated it.
Never mind where they went.
Her main goal was to see what information VOID had hidden here!
-
Just as she predicted.
The paper documents were stored in a separate room with insufficient resources, and they also had difficulty setting up adequate protection within the copy.
The only protection was the contamination Jiang Xingni had already experienced within the instance.
The dead tried to drag Jiang Xingni into the realm of the dead, but she skillfully dodged them time and again.
The few researchers in the room were really insignificant.
Seeing a person wearing a black cloak and a mask slowly float in, I instinctively wanted to use my superpower to fight back.
Jiang Xingni's eyes, which had been listless and lacking motivation, suddenly lit up.
Coincidentally.
She's worried that she hasn't copied enough superpowers.
Just when I was about to go to sleep, someone brought me a pillow.
Jiang Xingnian's lips, hidden behind the mask, curled up silently.
The Eye of Truth opened, and the entire room, including the area outside, was encompassed by the supernatural power.
The trajectory, origin, and operating principle of the supernatural ability were all laid out clearly in Jiang Xingni's eyes.
Since her abilities improved, she rarely chooses to use the Eye of Truth directly, and more often uses physical techniques to fight head-on.
But since we've changed our persona, we should change our fighting style too.
Jiang Xingni dodged the various elements swirling around him.
The icy blade grazed her side, then she returned it intact. The same frost grew from the feet of the attacker, freezing him in place in the blink of an eye.
After losing the main characters, the supernatural attacks they faced seemed rather ordinary.
It felt like the writers were too lazy to come up with any new moves, so they just randomly picked a few classic superpowers to fill the gaps.
Jiang Xingni didn't seem to mind.
Regardless of whether it's a superpower or an attack method that's just there to make up the numbers, she can copy any superpower she can find.
Anyway, having more skills is never a bad thing.
Jiang Xingni dodged the fireball, and then a huge fire suddenly burst into flames, only to be extinguished in the next second.
An invisible wind blade sliced through Jiang Xingni's cloak, and in return, all the air in the space was sucked away. The ability users who originally wanted to fight back just covered their necks and stared at Jiang Xingni with wide eyes.
He didn't say a word.
Jiang Xingni left them just the right amount of oxygen—enough to keep them from dying of oxygen deprivation, but not enough for them to move around normally.
All I could feel was that breathing was becoming increasingly difficult, my vision was gradually blurring, and I was losing my balance and swaying unsteadily, eventually collapsing to the ground.
Jiang Xingni ignored the group of people—were they researchers?
It has nothing to do with her; the 49th Bureau will handle it anyway.
Jiang Xingni intently flipped through the newly organized documents.
Thank you for compiling all the important documents together in order to escape, for fear that Jiang Xingni would waste too much time searching through them.
If this were a Clash of Clans tabletop role-playing game, Jiang Xingni felt as if he had already skipped a library check.
It was almost exactly as Jiang Xingni had predicted.
The information is almost entirely related to Lu Xianqing.
