Chapter 40: The Silver Box
Time always passes very slowly in waiting, and more than five hours of waiting made everyone feel a bit depressed.
From just now, Lin Yixuan has immersed his mind in the study space, using the time ratio in the study space to increase Lin Yixuan's spiritual power recovery. At the same time, Lin Yixuan also started practicing shooting in the study space. Lin Yixuan was too lacking in confidence in his shooting skills, so he decided to take this opportunity to practice his shooting well.
But after entering the learning space, Lin Yixuan only knew that there was a limit to entering the learning space from the trial space, and it was not possible to enter as freely as in real space. The interval for entering the learning space from the trial space is once every 100 days, which is equivalent to once a day in real space. Moreover, each entry can only learn for up to 20 days at most. This restriction directly shattered Lin Yixuan's small mind, and he originally wanted to use the time in the trial space to practice skills and earn energy points, but now it seems hopeless.
However, Xue Er told him that if he upgraded his learning space, he could normally enter the practice space even in the trial training space, and the time ratio would also increase. But now thinking about these is useless, it's better to focus on practicing his marksmanship.
After the shooting practice, Lin Yixuan only knew that shooting also had a lot of skills and it wasn't just about hitting new people accurately. In the learning space, mastering gun techniques was about understanding various firearms and fully grasping their performance. Primary gun techniques were static aiming, with 100% accuracy, while intermediate techniques required dynamic aiming with at least 90% accuracy. However, dynamic aiming gave Lin Yixuan a headache as those moving targets flew by quickly without any discernible pattern or predictability. This made it difficult for him to anticipate their next trajectory. Fortunately, Lin Yixuan's mental strength was much stronger than an average person, and his reaction ability was exceptional. After spending over ten days in the learning space, he finally completed the intermediate gun techniques.
Lin Yixuan can now easily target moving targets, and even in harsh environments, Lin Yixuan can still hit the target with ease.
It wasn't until he reached advanced marksmanship that Lin Yixuan realized there were even more techniques to shooting, such as curved trajectory shooting, ricochet shooting, dual gun collision deflection and other techniques that Lin Yixuan had never even heard of.
For these Lin Yixuan had some difficulty learning, and he only learned a bit of these techniques, but also entered the advanced level of marksmanship.
After more than 20 days of shooting practice, Lin Yixuan finally had confidence in his marksmanship. After coming out of the training space, he felt that his mental state seemed to have fully recovered.
"You're awake." At this time, Alice asked softly in Lin Yixuan's ear. After Alice's headache eased, she leaned directly on Lin Yixuan's shoulder and pretended to sleep. She felt Lin Yixuan's movement and slowly said.
"Hmm, I've more or less recovered now. All of you go to the other side, I'll open a one-person exit." Lin Yixuan said to Alice and the others.
When everyone heard Lin Yixuan's words, their faces were filled with joy. They could finally leave this haunted place. After staying in this dark and gloomy place for more than five hours, they felt like they were almost suffocating.
Lin Yixuan took out the electromagnetic gun and aimed at a weak point he had found earlier, gently pulling the trigger. In an instant, a beam of electricity shot into the rubble in front of him, causing a violent explosion to erupt from within the rocks, sending countless stones flying in all directions.
The vector operation force field was activated instantly, and all the stones flying towards him stopped in front of him before falling to the ground powerlessly.
The crowd behind Lin Yixuan was also unaffected.
However, they are now all shocked. What was that gun just now? Lin Yixuan's gun, which seemed to have endless bullets, was already surprising enough for them. Now this gun can directly shoot out electric light and even produce explosions, all of which are too challenging for their common sense.
Lin Yixuan didn't care what they thought, anyway, he had already exposed enough secrets, and this was a trial space, not real space, so even if something happened, Lin Yixuan wasn't worried.
After five seconds, Lin Yixuan fired another shot. In an instant, there was a strong explosion again, and then a faint light appeared among the rocks in front of him.
Lin Yixuan was overjoyed, it seemed that the rubble was about to be blasted through. Lin Yixuan fired another shot, and in an instant a passageway appeared before his eyes, with the stairs leading to the research room just ahead.
"Hurry, everyone get out." Lin Yixuan said as he turned around and walked out first. He didn't know if the crawler was still outside, but even if it was, his vector operation had recovered, so dealing with the crawler shouldn't be too much trouble.
Lin Yixuan walked out of the dimly lit corridor and arrived at the institute, which should be where he encountered the crawler before. However, there were supposed to be dozens of zombies here earlier, but now not a single one could be seen. It was strange, where did they all go?
Lin Yixuan furrowed his brow, looking around in all directions. Not only were the zombies gone, but even the crawlers had vanished. The place was quiet to the point of being eerie. At this moment, Alice and the others also emerged from that passageway, seeing the desolate scene before them, they too felt it was somewhat strange.
"Let's get out of here before the zombies show up." Matt said quietly for the first time.
"We can't get out, the outermost door will automatically close three hours after we enter, and now we are trapped here." Kaplan shook his head with a bitter smile, he had set the time when he entered, and the outer door would close once the time was up.
"It's okay, I'll find a way to open the big door outside." Lin Yixuan smiled lightly, believing that the big door outside couldn't trap them.
They arrived at the platform where they first came without any obstacles, and didn't encounter any zombies. The zombies seemed to have disappeared all of a sudden.
"Hurry up and get on the train, let's get out of here as soon as possible." Lin Yixuan said to the crowd. Afterwards, he began to observe the surroundings, actually, Lin Yixuan still wanted to find an antidote for the T-virus, after all, he was currently infected with the T-virus, so he was very concerned about these things.
Just then, Lin Yixuan suddenly heard a low growl coming from the side. He turned his head to see a zombie wearing a white robe rushing towards him at an incredibly fast speed. Lin Yixuan's eyes narrowed, it was too fast, this zombie's speed was much faster than the ones he had seen before, and was only slightly slower than that of a crawler.
Lin Yixuan dodged the zombie's attack with a swift movement, and the zombie, without stopping, ran directly onto the rail tracks and sprinted rapidly towards the exit.
Suddenly, Lin Yixuan saw a small silver-white box in the zombie's hand. Looking at the somewhat familiar small box, Lin Yixuan couldn't help but feel a sudden jolt in his heart. Could it be that this was the box used to store the T-virus and its antidote? It couldn't be that coincidental, could it? And why would such a thing end up in a zombie's hand?
"Hurry up and start the car, we must catch up with that zombie in front." Lin Yixuan directly got on the train and said to Kaplan.
Lin Yixuan felt a sense of urgency in his heart, he knew that his physical strength couldn't keep up with the zombies, so he could only let Kapuland drive the train to chase after it, and that small silver box must be obtained.
