Chapter 1611 Connections, Support and Change In the Rules

Without any hesitation, Luke followed Stacy’s footprints.

He wasn’t good enough to put others before himself.

For now, it didn’t matter to him if the woman was dead or alive. Stacy could be considered lucky that the police officer was with her.

Stacy’s scent was faintly discernible in the air.

This town had strange rules, but Luke vaguely sensed that the existence controlling this place wasn’t omnipotent.

For example, he had Sharp Nose, which the other party didn’t know about, so the essence of smells hadn’t been changed here.

The strong smell of burning charcoal was only a distraction, and the effect wasn’t as exaggerated as with sound and light here.

Soon, Stacy’s scent became more and more obvious.

Luke entered a small door into what looked like a school.

At that moment, an ear-piercing, drawn-out whine rang out in the quiet town.

Luke was stunned for a moment. An air siren? Why was there something like that here?

Also, did that mean… that there were people in this town?

Mulling over this, Luke didn’t run in the direction of the alarm, but continued toward Stacy’s location.

Less than 30 seconds later, Luke spotted two women who were running down the corridor and looking around.

“Stacy,” he called out.

Stacy jerked and turned around.

When she saw that smiling mask which often appeared in her dreams, she had the urge to cling to it.

But in her dreams, the mask was always telling her to “study hard,” “pay attention to safety,” and “recite the safety rules 100 times.” She suppressed the urge and ran over. “Wizard.”

Luke asked, “Are you alright?”

“I’m fine.” Stacy ran over and shook her head, then changed it to a nod. “We ran into a monster outside earlier, which looked like it had radiation contamination, but Cybil shot

it.”

The police officer slowly walked over, one wary hand on her gun.

Only then did Stacy come back to her senses. Crap, she shouldn’t have exposed her connection to V in front of a stranger like Cybil.

Luke didn’t think much of it.

For one thing, Cybil was a woman, and for another, she was a light green in the system.

Whether or not she would be able to make it out alive had yet to be determined.

After all, a martyred female officer had boundless power. It was possible that she was just some pawn here.

He simply asked Cybil, “What’s going on with the woman you were chasing?”

Cybil subconsciously answered, “On the way here, I heard from my colleague that the woman was looking for a little girl. She didn’t seem clear-headed, so I followed her to take a look. Then, I found blood in her car, which is why I chased her here.”

Luke asked, “Where’s the little girl?”

“I haven’t seen her. My colleagues at the police department were still looking into it when I got here.”

Luke frowned. “So, none of you are clear on the situation with the woman and the girl?”

Cybil said, “Yes.”

Luke was lost for words.

He couldn’t access any records at the moment; it wasn’t like he had the Pennsylvania database on him. He could only leave it to his main body to investigate the information.

Cybil said that the woman called herself Rose da Silva.

Unless the woman was using a fake name, it would be much easier to investigate her.

As they talked, the air siren suddenly stopped after three minutes.

The three of them stopped talking at the same time and looked around.

Fine cracks appeared in the floor, walls and ceiling; the sound was very uncomfortable.

At the same time, it swiftly turned dark outside the window.

It didn’t feel like night falling, but more like a solar eclipse.

In ten seconds, the light completely disappeared.

After a few seconds of darkness, their surroundings glowed with a faint yellow light.

But the light was very strange. It seemed to be reflecting off the buildings, and Luke couldn’t find a source.

As she looked around, Stacy subconsciously moved closer to Luke.

Luke also slowly surveyed the changes happening around him.

The old building they were in had cracked open. Countless fragments slowly rained down, and the sky turned into a black expanse which disappeared overhead.

The surface of various buildings and objects peeled off and transformed to reveal completely different appearances.

The wooden door turned into a metal door, the handle turned into an iron lock, and the wooden floor turned into rusting metal.

The building surfaces were a rusting yellow, and covered in red and black bloodstains. The smell of rust and rot filled their noses.

Coupled with the smell of burning coal, it was pretty uncomfortable.

Luke’s heart jumped. He took a box out from under his cape, opened it and said to Stacy, “Put on your gear. Safety first.”

Stacy cheered softly and immediately put a black mask on her face.

The black mask immediately softened and flowed over her face like liquid.

In less than five seconds, Stacy’s head and hair were completely covered.

Cybil was shocked. She had never seen anything so “high-tech” in her life.

Stacy didn’t stop. She took out two more items from the box. They were nanogloves and version 1.0 of the Flying Legs boots.

While she had already been wearing a nanosuit, she didn’t have anything else.

The nanosuit was split into four parts, mainly because of its bulk. This “flow” version of the entire nanosuit wasn’t much smaller than Tony’s Mark 5.

For example, the main armor was largely for protecting vital parts and providing energy, and had few other functions.

In comparison, the gloves had all sorts of support and combat functions. The boots were mainly for support while on the move, while the helmet was a data processing center and had an air filter.

In less than twenty seconds, Stacy was black all over, like a marble statue.

After Stacy took her gear, Luke gave the box to Cybil. “There’s another set in there. You can put it on.”

He had stuffed an extra set into the box before he took it out of his inventory.

Cybil hesitated.

In her heart, she was reluctant.

The nanomaterial looked like a dark lump, but when it was put on, it turned into a mercury-like liquid which wrapped around a person.

It looked as sinister as a liquid monster in a science fiction movie.

She really didn’t dare wear it.

The moment Luke spoke, however, she obediently put on the gear.

It was silent at first while the two girls were putting on their gear, but then there was the sound of rustling everywhere.

When it turned dark, the thick fog in the air thinned out.

Their range of vision was now much wider. There was still some fog, but they could see everything clearly up to 50 meters away.

Luke narrowed his eyes. Had the rules changed?

When he activated Elementary Sound Wave, he could clearly hear sounds from dozens of meters away.

A drone flew out from under his cape.

Sure enough, the signal from the drone only disappeared completely past a range of 70 meters in the fog.

Luke had a thought, and several more mini drones flew out from under his cape and spread out 50 meters around him.
