Fantasy Game: Infinite City

Chapter 590 Cutting off the retreat

20 minutes later, the island reached the ground.

"are you ready?"

"what?"

Christina, who was trying on the noise-canceling earplugs she had gotten from Han Zu, heard Han Zu say something to her. However, these strange metal noise-canceling earplugs were of very good quality, so she didn't hear what Han Zu said at all. Han Zu pointed at her ears and asked her to take them off first.

"What did you just say?"

"I say, are you ready?"

"Oh, I'm always available."

"Get ready, let's go."

"Row."

Putting her earplugs back on, Christina covered her eyes with the decorative band of her dress. Following Han Zu's instructions, she placed her hands vertically against the sides of her legs. After a second or two, she felt Han Zu's hand grasp her shoulder, and then her feet left the ground. There was no air around her, so she couldn't tell if she was moving or teleporting. But she could sense a strong energy pulse around her, originating from Han Zu.

As for Han Zu, the moment he dragged Christina into the base, the contractor's equipment had already detected the nanorobot sequence in her brain. While his actions appeared to indicate he was taking Christina somewhere to eliminate the nanorobot sequence, this wasn't actually the case. If Han Zu simply wanted to eliminate them, the contractor's equipment on him would have overwritten their systems, allowing them to exit Christina's body and self-destruct. He had other reasons for staging this act.

In short, while Christina's information about the underground research institute was true, it didn't convince Han Zu completely. It could be a trap set in advance. He planned to test the waters further, and the nanorobot sequences were a perfect bait.

Scans from the contractor's equipment revealed that the nanorobot sequences not only filled Christina's brain but also invaded her entire eyeballs. This meant that whoever controlled the nanorobots could see and hear everything happening around her through Christina's body. Similarly, Christina could communicate with her controllers in real time through this nanorobot sequence. This was precisely why Han Zu remained wary of Christina. If the shielding was removed, Christina could potentially communicate with the outside world and transmit intelligence.

However, she wasn't completely lying. The underlying code of the nanorobot sequence did contain a program that could control these nanorobots to destroy Christina's brain. But even if Christina wasn't lying, those controlling the nanorobot sequence didn't need to contact her to obtain information about Christina's surroundings and locate her.

With someone like Christina, who possessed nearly unlimited teleportation abilities, relying solely on a nanorobot sequence was insufficient to fully control her. Therefore, the Ferdinand family must have a plan B, most likely dispatching a group of loyal followers with the same or similar abilities, ready to travel to Christina's location to provide liaison support or silence her.

For Han Zu, although Christina couldn't be fully trusted right now, her nearly unlimited teleportation ability was indeed a very useful asset. If he could pull her over to his side, it would definitely be helpful later on. Therefore, to achieve this, he had to ensure that Christina had no escape route and no chance of returning to the Ferdinand family.

Achieving this goal was actually quite simple. The contractor equipment in their base was capable of blocking signals from nearly any technological device. A significant amount of time had passed since she had set foot on the island, including Han Zu's deliberate delay. Someone like Christina was undoubtedly a valuable asset to the Feidenan Family. Even if she had disappeared for several hours, the Feidenan Family wouldn't immediately activate their nanobot attack program. Instead, they would immediately search for her. After confirming her condition, they would make a final decision. Consequently, the Feidenan Family would undoubtedly dispatch a team to search for Christina.

With the contractor's equipment in control, Han Zu could safely unlock the nanorobot sequences and transmit their signals. Simultaneously, he used his bio-field and flight abilities to quickly reach an uninhabited island deep in the ocean. Surrounded by the ocean, the area offered a clear view, devoid of any obstructions. Should anyone following and searching for Christina appear, Han Zu would immediately annihilate them, but he would intentionally leave one or two behind to avoid a swift elimination. He planned to give them time to relay his message, thus confirming and establishing that Christina had defected from the family and was colluding with other forces to attack them. Then, through the contractor's equipment, he would control the nanorobot sequences within Christina to exit her body and self-destruct. This would completely free Christina from the Ferdinand family's control. Even if she was truly acting, she wouldn't be able to explain herself to the Ferdinand family, and Han Zu would then have no need to restrict her freedom. Furthermore, at this point, he could simply show her his current power; there was no need to even inform her of the contractors' existence. Based on his current strength, no matter whether Christina is an undercover or not, after weighing the pros and cons, as long as Christina is not a fool, she will definitely choose to stand on his side.

Upon reaching the island, Han Zu quickly used the camouflage module of the contractor's equipment to change his appearance, transforming into a completely unfamiliar person. After arriving on the island, Han Zu deactivated the signal shielding against Christina's nanorobot sequence and waited for the others to arrive.

About ten minutes later, the contractor's equipment scanned and found some higher energy reactions at different locations a few nautical miles away. After precise scanning, it was found that two of them were commercial ships transporting energy cores, and four were strange guys with unstable energy. The reason why these guys made Han Zu feel strange was not because of anything else, but because these guys actually had unlimited company's technological equipment on them.

Han Zu was puzzled. Could it be that Christina wasn't actually an undercover agent sent by the Ferdinand family to Infinity, but the other way around? He couldn't confirm it. He checked the identities of the individuals and found that they were indeed employees of Infinity, with no connection to the Ferdinand family. But perhaps their connection was secret, so no relevant information could be found. Furthermore, the contractor's equipment hadn't detected any of the devices on them that were related to the nanorobot sequence on Christina.

Theoretically, the Unlimited Company was also one of Han Zu's problems, but at least today, Han Zu wasn't waiting for them. However, based on their movements, the four Unlimited Company guys were clearly heading towards his position. Although they ultimately stopped a mile away, Han Zu could confirm that they were observing his position.

Turning his head to glance at Christina, who was now temporarily out of sight and hearing, Han Zu couldn't help but doubt her identity once again. With his disguised appearance, it was impossible for anyone to recognize him, so the four Infinite Company members nearby must be heading for Christina. However, just as Han Zu was about to continue moving with Christina to confirm whether the four Infinite Company members were following her, the contractor's equipment detected another target. This time, it was a warship disguised as a medium-sized cruise ship, equipped with a complete offshore base, from weaponry and transport systems to armed forces, and even a small laboratory. Han Zu used the contractor's equipment to quickly check the personal information of the cruise ship's personnel. Although there was no direct connection, their interpersonal connections confirmed that these individuals were members of the Ferdinand family.

The cruise ship also stopped a mile from the island. Several speedboats disembarked and sped toward the island. The contractor's surveillance equipment revealed that the four Infinite Company agents who had arrived nearby immediately shifted their focus from Christina to the cruise ship. Intercepted communications confirmed that the four Infinite Company agents were there not only because they had spotted Christina, but also because they seemed to have forewarned of the cruise ship's movements. It seemed that not only had the Ferdinand family infiltrated the Infinite Company, but the Infinite Company had also infiltrated the Ferdinand family.

In that case, the situation became much easier. Taking advantage of the moment when no one was observing the island, Han Zu quickly jumped into the sea from a blind spot. Moving underwater at high speed, like an automatic torpedo, he directly sank the speedboats that attempted to approach the island. He then quickly dragged down and killed any survivors who had fallen into the water and survived the collision. Then, without stopping, he charged directly into the cruise ship from below, using his speed advantage and high-energy beams to kill 90% of the survivors on board, leaving behind a group of informants.

Afterward, Han Zu moved at top speed from beneath the surface of the sea to the maximum attack range of his high-energy beam. He waited for the survivors on the cruise ship to relay their message before immediately unleashing his high-energy beam, cutting the cruise ship in two from a distance unobservable to the four Infinite Company personnel. The sudden destruction of the cruise ship and the explosively concentrated high-energy beam startled the four men. Two of them quickly left their position, reporting the situation while rapidly approaching the direction of the high-energy beam.

At the same time, after completing the attack on the cruise ship, Han Zu also quickly returned to Christina from the bottom of the sea. He used the positioning of the contractor's equipment to lock his base, and then disappeared out of thin air in front of the remaining two Infinite Company personnel who were observing the isolated island.

(The contractor's teleportation technology was completely different from the teleportation technology that Infinity Company knew. In their view, Han Zu and Christina, who disappeared using the contractor's equipment, simply disappeared into thin air. They could not locate or calculate the teleportation location based on the energy residue.)

After returning to the base, Han Zu placed Christina on a piece of equipment. This equipment was actually only for a physical examination and did not contain any medical devices, but it was enough to fool Christina. Han Zu removed Christina's earplugs (actually a miniature silencing force field generator), informed her of their arrival, and had her lie down on the surgical instruments. Once she was settled, Han Zu used the contractor's equipment to completely cover every nanobot in the nanorobot array, manipulating them to leave Christina's body. To ensure Christina could truly feel that she was receiving treatment, Han Zu deliberately manipulated the nanobots to inflict minor wounds on her nasal cavity, the outside of her eyeballs, and the inside of her ears, causing her to experience some pain. He also slowed the nanobots' movement. It took about ten minutes to completely remove all the nanobots from Christina's body.

"Okay, now the nanorobots in your body have been cleared, but the process of clearing them has caused some minor damage to various parts of your body. I'm going to send you to the medical cabin now."

"it is good."

To trick Christina, Han Zu actually took her into the medical bay this time. Although Christina's injuries were minor, Han Zu, to make the performance more convincing, initiated a comprehensive medical bay inspection. He deliberately went into great detail on each test to buy time. Because the injuries were so minor, a few seconds of low-concentration healing spray would have been enough. After the injuries were treated, Han Zu adjusted the medical bay and allowed her to moisturize for more than ten minutes, followed by a massage.

After completing the "treatment," Han Zu led Christina out of the "treatment area" and flew around their base several times. The bio-force field shielded her, making it impossible for Christina to discern her movements. Then, Han Zu brought her back to the second floor of the base, across from the teleportation platform, and performed a face-to-face quick transfer.

"Okay, you're fine now."

"We're back?"

"Well, the nanorobot sequence in your body has been completely cleared. As agreed, you should continue to provide intelligence on the Feidenan family. Of course, you can rest for a while. Or, if you don't trust me, you can find a place you trust to check whether the nanorobot sequence in your body has been cleared."

"Trust is mutual. I do need to confirm it."

"Please, the door is open."

"Aren't you afraid that I will run away?"

"Not afraid."

"So I'm really leaving?"

"No delivery."

Christina glanced at Han Zu with a strange expression on her face, but she still left Han Zu's base and teleported away.
