In prison No. 18 in the dark, a warm breath suddenly came from a certain cell.
Gradually, the warm breath turned into burning heat again.
The heat waves were surging out from the cell, like the evening tide in the equatorial area.
In the two cells next to this cell, prisoners were slapping at the alloy gate frantically and shouting for help.
Their cry for help became less and less, and the water in their bodies was evaporating rapidly by the high temperature. In just two minutes, they entered a dehydration state.
Lin Xiaoxiao, who was sleeping on the first floor, suddenly stood up. He came to the square and looked up, and looked at Ye Wan, who also noticed something wrong: "Awakening of the elemental system?"
"Well," Ye Wan nodded: "It's Liu Dezhu's cell."
Lin Xiaoxiao was stunned and inexplicably: "What has this kid experienced in the world? He actually woke up?"
The alloy gate in the square opened, six machine prison guards lined up in two teams to enter the field neatly, and the honeycomb drone above the sky also fell downwards and flew towards the abnormal cell.
"Save people first," Ye Wan bent his legs slightly, jumped and landed steadily on the corridor on the third floor like a tiger. He opened the two alloy gates next door and threw the exhausted prisoner inside to a faraway place.
The heat wave in the cell was pouring out through the alloy gate, and Ye Wan's hair on her forehead began to feel scorched.
The next moment, a translucent force field suddenly gathered in front of him. When the heat swept through, you could still see the circular force field with tight honeycomb structures arranged.
Ye Wan stood in front of the cell door, with three mechanical prison guards standing on both sides of the corridor where he was, and behind him was a drone hovering in the air.
He was waiting until the temperature inside began to drop, and Ye Wan signaled the mechanical prison guard to open the alloy gate.
With a click, the alloy gate opened, and Liu Dezhu was sitting weakly on the ground, and all the daily necessities in the room were burned into black or white gray.
Strangely, Liu Dezhu's clothes were still intact.
This guy was in a depressed state, but his expression was extremely excited and murmured: "I am an awakened person! I have really become an awakened person!"
"Come out," Ye Wan said, "change your cell."
Liu Dezhu suddenly turned around: "Where is the boss? Is my boss back? I have to tell him the news, I succeeded!"
Ye Wan's expression became strange. He didn't expect that this guy's first reaction was to tell Qingchen the news of his awakening.
He didn't know yet. In Liu Dezhu's opinion, if the boss hadn't advised him to remain angry, he might not have woken up now...
At this time, Lin Xiaoxiao came to the door and said with a smile: "Your boss has no time to pay attention to you now."
"Then what level am I now?" Liu Dezhu asked.
"C-level," Lin Xiaoxiao leaned against the door bored: "Don't be happy so early. Awakened people are different from practitioners. It is difficult for you to improve your level as if you are ascending to the sky. There is still a long way to go."
...
...
In the wilderness, beside the lonely bonfire, Li Shutong looked at Qingchen with a smile: "Do you still insist on practicing when you go back this time?"
"Yes," Qingchen nodded and took off his shirt, revealing his muscles.
Li Shutong was a little surprised: "I deliberately did not remind you to practice. I just wanted to see how you occasionally feel undisciplined, but I didn't expect you to persist. Strangely, after becoming a knight, can you still like the slow growth of your practice?"
Just like many people suddenly get rich, and after their net worth is over 100 million, if someone on the ground loses ten yuan, the rich man may not be willing to bend down to pick it up.
Not to mention ten yuan, they don’t like a few thousand yuan.
At this time, Li Shutong felt that if Qingchen became a billionaire, even if he saw a penny of coins embedded in the concrete road while walking, his student would find a way to cut out the coins.
Other teachers hope that students can be more self-disciplined, but they hope that their students can relax occasionally.
This feeling is not right!
Qingchen put on his shirt again, and he added a few firewood to the bonfire and said, "Master, it's not that I'm so self-disciplined, it's because I remembered something. Lin Xiaoxiao once told me that he would go through the barrier of life and death as an ordinary person, so I think continuing to practice will definitely come in handy."
Li Shutong sighed: "You are quite smart."
"The knight has become an extraordinary person after being promoted. How should he return to the state of an ordinary person?" Qing Chen was puzzled.
"I still want to let you relax after becoming an extraordinary person before telling you," said Li Shutong: "You try to reverse the frequency of breathing."
Qingchen recalled the frequency of breathing. In an instant, ice-blue patterns suddenly bloomed on both sides of his cheeks, which were completely different from the previous flame patterns.
With a click in his body, Qingchen felt that the gene lock that had been opened in his body was locked again!
The power rushing in the body was also pulled away from a certain corner after this moment.
He suddenly looked at Li Shutong: "Teacher, will you have to go backward breathing whenever you experience the life and death barrier?"
"Yes," Li Shutong nodded: "If you breathe in reverse, your body will be locked for an hour."
"So that's it," Qingchen nodded.
He put away his breathing surgery, but the gene lock did not reopen.
"In this way, wouldn't it be very dangerous when a knight experiences the life and death barrier? If someone deliberately obstructs it, the life and death barrier that was originally a life and death will become ten deaths without life," Qingchen asked.
"So, knights must keep secrets when experiencing the barrier of life and death," said Li Shutong.
"Isn't there a way to forcefully reopen the gene lock?" Qingchen wondered: "It's not enough to be slaughtered."
"Yes, but I hope you will never use it," said Li Shutong: "When you forcefully perform the forward breathing technique, you can reopen the shackles, but the price is that you can only stay in the current state for the rest of your life."
Qingchen was silent for a moment: "Some senior must have paid the price for this."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Of course there is," Li Shutong sighed: "Your master Chen Jiazhang's realm was stagnant because of this matter. At that time, he was ambushed and blocked when the power of completion emerged. At that time, he had no choice but to stay at level A forever."
It turns out that the dangers that knights have to face when experiencing the barrier of life and death come not only from nature, but also from the sinister hearts of human beings.
At this time, Qingchen felt the power of becoming an ordinary person, and it was obviously much bigger than before he climbed the cliff of the green mountains: "Teacher, I found a friend in the world who could control the force field and created a gravity warehouse for me to practice. How do I feel that after the gravity warehouse and respiratory surgery are combined, the entry has been several times faster."
"Control the force field?" Li Shutong thought for a while: "It has been a long time since there has been an awakened person who can control the force field."
"Confirm," Qingchen nodded: "Is there any explanation?"
"Awakened people who can control the force field are born brilliant," said Li Shutong: "Their upper limit is very high and their combat capabilities are also very strong. In the history of the New Civilization Era, almost every such awakened person has played an important role."
Qingchen was stunned. He didn't expect that Yangyang's ability was so vigorous.
At this time, Li Shutong asked, "Is your friend a boy or a girl? I can help you create a gravity warehouse practice, and your relationship should be good."
"Girl," Qingchen answered honestly.
Li Shutong fell into deep thought.
"What's wrong with Master?" Qingchen asked.
"Do you know where she is in the world? Do you have any family?" Li Shutong looked at Qingchen: "Do you need a master to help you propose marriage?"
Qingchen: "...Master, I have no feelings for that girl, and I am very sure now. She suddenly appears because she has her own purpose, so don't think so much."
"Okay," said Li Shutong.
"Master, where are we going next? Will we go back to Prison No. 18?" Qingchen asked.
"I must go back, but before returning, I have to do something in the city of 18," Li Shutong explained with a smile: "How long will it take for you to count down this time?"
“7 days.”
"It takes four days to return to City No. 18, and if there are three days left... it is enough!" Uncle Li said confidently.
Qingchen was a little confused, what did this master take him to do?
...
...
Countdown 72:00:00.
No. 18 City District 6, night.
A silver-haired girl with white headphones and listening to the light music flowing like a stream, she walked into the glass elevator of the Luoshen Building.
She raised her slender wrist and pressed the elevator button on the 132nd floor, then turned around to appreciate the city night outside the transparent glass when the elevator climbed.
The girl was carrying a slanted shoulder bag containing her own reader and personal belongings.
The bag was a little worn, and her friend always advised her to change it to a new one, but she always replied that she liked the bear pattern on the bag, so she was reluctant to change it.
In fact, the girl has never received a penny from her family after graduating from junior high school. She has to earn high tutoring classes on her own part-time job, so that she can hope to get into a better university.
Moreover, going to college is just a new beginning. You should know that unless she gets admitted to Tinder Military Academy or Northwest Military Academy, she will have to bear even higher university tuition fees.
Every university has a scholarship, but the problem is that she doesn’t have such a good resume to support her in receiving the scholarship.
Thinking of this, the girl was a little confused, and she didn't know where her life was.
Just as the elevator door was about to close, one hand blocked the elevator door.
The girl saw from the reflection on the glass that a middle-aged man and a teenager walked into the elevator. Both of them were wearing brand new white sportswear and brand new black baseball caps.
The brim of the hat was pressed very low, and the silver-haired girl couldn't see the appearance of these two people.
After entering, the two of them did not press the elevator button, but stood quietly behind the girl, looking out the glass window of the elevator.
She remembered the rumors that the 89th floor residents were robbed by the house, and gradually tightened her shoulder bag and her clean nails also made marks on the belt.
However, the girl looked at each other in the reflection, and she always felt that these two people didn't look like those members of the club who could not tell the truth.
At least she had never seen members of the club wear so cleanly.
Yes, the girl’s first impression of these two is actually clean.
The elevator climbed quickly, and the girl felt a little uncomfortable in her eardrums. This was because the elevator was too fast and the floor was too high, just like when the plane took off.
At this time, the elevator had reached the 91st floor, and outside the window was a complex overpass that ran across the sky, covering the entire city, connecting tall buildings and squares in the sky.
When the street lights are on, the overpass is like a nebula lingering among the city.
The boy behind her looked out the window and said, "Will you get lost in such a complicated urban traffic?"
"I don't know," the middle-aged man replied: "The teacher used to have a driver when he went out."
The girl curled her lips secretly. Now it’s the era of autonomous driving, who can be idle and get a driver?
Also, although this overpass is complicated, you only need to tell the destination of the artificial intelligence when driving.
With a jingle, the elevator arrived at the 132nd floor.
The silver-haired girl was so nervous that she didn't dare to move, but the middle-aged man and the boy walked out of the elevator first and headed straight to the depths of the corridor.
After the other party got out of the elevator, she slowly turned around, but saw that the other party pressed the password in front of a door, and with a click, the door lock opened.
The silver-haired girl did not dare to breathe a sigh of relief until then. She turned out to be a neighbor and lived opposite her house!
The two of them didn't press the elevator after they came in just now, which scared her a little absent-minded.
But at this time, the silver-haired girl was a little curious. No one had lived in the opposite side of her house for a long time. After the sudden renovation, she had not moved into the new landlord. Why did she suddenly visit late at night?
strangeness.
On the other side, Qingchen took off his hat after entering the house: "The girl seemed very scared just now. Is the public security in the city of No. 18 too bad? This is not the case in the world. The girl doesn't have to worry too much when walking on the street in the middle of the night...at least this is true in the metropolis."
Li Shutong said: "This is a historical problem. The federal government once sacked one-third of the police force due to one incident, which caused the crime rate to increase frequently."
"Removal of police force?" Qingchen could not imagine.
"It's not only the police force being removed, but it's hard to even imagine that except for the upper third district, the traffic cameras in several other districts have been disrepair for many years," said Li Shutong calmly: "It's okay, you can only feel what a pathological country you live here in the future."
"Master, is it just to change what you want to do?" Qingchen asked.
Li Shutong smiled and said, "Don't ask so much, just visit your new house first."
Qingchen looked around and saw that there was only one bedroom, one living room, one bathroom and one kitchen, which was more than 80 square meters. Because there was only one bedroom, each room seemed large.
At the end of the living room is a huge floor-to-ceiling window, outside the window is a panoramic view of the sixth district of the city.
The sofa and home appliances were placed in the living room, and everything looked brand new.
