Chapter 29: Bat Monster

"It is finally over..."

This time it was not a hallucination; Batman relied on his almost superpower-level willpower to forcibly suppress the illusion that the spiritual infection made him see, and he successfully counterattacked.

But as the kill was completed, the screen in front of Chu Cheng immediately went black, and he returned to the hero selection interface.

The Batman in the character column has become unselectable, with the only heroes available for battle being the Huntress, who was pulled in his last gatcha pull.

Chu Cheng moved the cursor to Batman, and after hovering over the icon, a text box appeared below the character.

"Resting, 0% recovered, remaining time is until recovery 24 hours."

Although the hero characters played by Chu Cheng can be revived and recovered, it is not like in ordinary games where you can quickly heal a hero, as the recovery in this game has a set time. For example, after Batman is exhausted, it takes him a day to regain his full state and attack again.

Chu Cheng's eyes fell on the huntress.

I used to think that it was redundant to get a hero role that overlaps with Batman's position, but now it seems that it is not entirely true. At least in the next twenty-four hours when Batman is resting, if there is any emergency that requires a fight, he can use other heroes like Huntress.

In short, some extra heroes can be used as substitutes.

Just now, he was in a state of nervous tension and concentrated on the game. Now that he finally stopped playing, Chu Cheng realized that he was already sweating buckets, and his clothes were soaked in sweat and stuck to his body.

Although Chu Cheng has played the game several times, This was the most intense fight so far, which drastically increased the stamina consumption compared to the other sessions.

At this moment, his body felt weak, and he almost fell down when he stood up from the chair.

He was exhilarated and wanted nothing more than to sleep. He dragged himself to his bed, and as he collapsed on the bed, he fell asleep impatiently.

…

As Chu Cheng fell asleep soundly, the rest of the city was in turmoil.

The team of Secret Service Nine quickly sealed off and controlled the scene, and all suspected infected people were taken to quarantine for investigation.

Detective Luo Yajun, who was the only agent present the entire time, was brought back to the headquarters after undergoing a set of checks.

When he arrived at the meeting room, the senior leaders and experts at the headquarters were waiting for him.

Before Luo Yajun arrived, the experts had already had a heated academic discussion about the monster that appeared in the city.

If an ordinary person sees a monster with tentacles, eyes, and barbs, they will panic and run away. But the thinking of researchers is a bit crazy. After seeing that thing, the main focus of these researchers was on the question: Can we make one in the lab?

In fact, the emergence of the infection and coronavirus occurred not long ago. The first case of infection was discovered more than two years ago. Secret Service Nine is also a new department that has not been established for a long time, and all experts are still in a state of exposure to the principles of infection and correction.

This was the first time that the spiritual bodies of multiple infected people combined into a large monster like this. Secret Service Nine has no experience dealing with such incidents, and the management, who were sleeping soundly last night, were woken and stunned when they heard the news.

In the past, when infected people caused an incident, they were able to suppress the news if the incident was too large.

Anyway, they have mastered the supreme power of 404 censorship, possess the heaven-defying skill of the great silence technique, and are invincible on the entire network.

But this time, the situation is different. A large number of people at the scene were affected by the strange monster, and there were many more people who were affected in the city.

It was not completely impossible to cover up the incident. With the ability of the Secret Service Nine, if they were truly determined to do it, even an incident of this scale may be forgotten.

But even if they could do it this time, what about next time?

The monster was dealt with this time, but no one can guarantee whether it will happen again.

The body of the man named Guan Ye has been recovered and is undergoing routine security checks. After the inspection, isolation, and observation are completed to ensure safety, the next step is the anatomical study of the source of infection.

They had to figure out how this infection worked.

Apart from the abnormal source of infection and the monster this time, the most eye-catching thing in the incident is, of course, the mysterious bat monster.

This was also the main question that everyone in the conference room wanted to ask Luo Yajun.

Luo Yajun started by invading the casino of the mafia gang alone. No one was particularly interested in this part, and he quickly narrated past this part.

When it came to the part where he mentioned the bat monster, everyone immediately had more questions.

Fortunately, Luo Yajun recorded this incident with a body camera he had during the operation. Therefore, although the video quality is not high and some scenes are a bit messy, it is still first-hand video data.

In the first half of the video, everyone's discussion focused on Batman's superb mobility and his strange technology.

For example, in the lobby of the casino, many thugs were knocked out without anyone noticing, including Luo Yajun. It is enough to prove that this person is not only well-trained but also very rich in his skills and tools.

Not to mention the technology he used; each gadget he used during this fight is not something that ordinary people can afford.

The video continued on the screen. Seeing the jet-black bat fighter hovering in mid-air, the bat monster raised his grapple gun, grabbed the plane, and climbed up, leaving everyone with a view of his back.

"A hovering jet fighter."

The speaker sits at the end of the conference table. It was a man with a calm temperament.

The chairman of Secret Service Nine is Li Changcheng.

"Dr. Hines, can we make something like this?" He looked at a white coat beside him.

As an expert in related fields, Dr. Hines helped the frame on the bridge of his nose: "It's not impossible; there are already prototypes with similar functions, but the technology is not yet mature enough to be put into actual combat.

The technology on this aircraft does seem to be stronger than the prototype in testing, and I would love to have the opportunity to study how it overcomes the technical difficulties we encountered."

After a pause, he added.

"It is indeed a very cutting-edge technology, and it is not something that can be bought with money. However, the relevant technology is already in the testing stage. I believe that within a year we should also have fighter jets equipped with similar systems that will be put into actual combat."

If Dr. Hines just admires the black fighter plane on the screen but has inexplicable confidence in his own technology, then in just a few minutes, he will have his confidence and naive view smashed to pieces.

The bat fighter moved quickly on the screen. If a layman sees some of its operations and only thinks it is cool, flexible, and gorgeous, then, as an expert, Dr. Hines feels that all the scientific research in his life has been done on dogs when he looks at these pictures.

What the hell is up with this smooth steering?

How can the plane drift?

Then the continuous bombardment of the doctor's worldview reached its climax when the Bat fighter completed a set of reverse steering that would have Newton's truning in his grave.

Dr. Hines is stunned.

This is a jet?
