Chapter 539 Gray Space

    “Although it’s not the first time I’ve entered this space, I still feel magical every time I come in…”

    Looking at the gray space in front of her, Shen Cuishan admired in a low voice.

    "really…"

    Others also nodded subconsciously.

    They have also seen some awakenings, and most of them are within the scope of their understanding. But Peng Nan''s awakening was different. It was like being in another time and space, and this space was very large. It didn''t look like a power that could be mastered at the fourth level... so they couldn''t understand how Peng Nan did it. Is it possible that there are still awakeners of the time and space system?

    “Follow me, don’t run around.”

    Peng Nan snorted very coldly, and then walked at the front to lead the way. From the slightly raised corners of his mouth, it can be seen that he is still somewhat complacent in his heart.

    ?Especially when he turned his head and saw a hint of surprise on the face of Wang Tao, the uninvited guest, his vanity was immediately greatly satisfied.

    ?Wang Tao was indeed surprised. If he hadn''t already known that Peng Nan was an awakened person of the spiritual system, Wang Tao would probably have thought that there was another space system.

    But he already knew in advance that Peng Nan was a spiritual awakener, so after entering this gray space, Wang Tao immediately used his powerful mental power to study it carefully.

    Soon, Wang Tao discovered some clues—

    ?This gray space seems to be in another time and space, but in fact, it is wrapped by a very strange spiritual force.

    ??The reason why this kind of mental power is strange is that this kind of mental power is very powerful, so powerful that Wang Tao is a little frightened. But these mental powers are very sluggish, rigid, and stubborn, and are not as flexible and changeable as Wang Tao''s own mental powers.

    ??If mental power can build a house, then Wang Tao’s mental power can simulate various building materials such as sand, cement, lime, and steel bars. Wang Tao can build whatever house he wants.

    ??But the spiritual power of this gray space is different. It is already made of prefabricated house materials, and it only needs to be simply spliced ??to get a house. The house may be large and put together quickly. But the style of the house is fixed and cannot be changed. So Wang Tao said it was very dull and rigid...

    ?Wang Tao felt that this sluggish mental power should have been borrowed from somewhere and did not belong to Peng Nan''s own power.

    ?This kind of mental power is basically not controlled. Peng Nan''s awakening can only be controlled briefly, and there are probably many restrictions.

    After Peng Nan constructed this gray space, he may not even be able to control these mental powers anymore. After all, these mental powers were too powerful. Wang Tao did not dare to try to control these mental powers forcibly. Considering Peng Nan''s strength, it was completely seeking death.

    The reason why this gray space gives people the feeling of being in another time and space is because they are guided by these powerful spiritual forces.

    ?This is equivalent to Peng Nan borrowing these powerful mental powers to build a virtual house, but this house is so real that everyone feels like they are in the house as soon as they enter the door.

    So to a certain extent, this is actually an illusion.

    It’s just that this illusion is fixed and cannot be changed once it is built. And the scope of this illusion is very large, almost covering the entire factory. The most important thing is that this illusion is so strong that even powerful zombies will be attracted by it and ignore them; even with Wang Tao''s strong mental power, he cannot see through and break it...

    ?These are Wang Tao''s speculations after observation. Whether it is exactly what he thought is because he is in this gray space and has no way to tell.

    Unless someone observes outside the scope of this gray space, or uses electronic products such as cameras to record.

    ?Wang Tao had a law enforcement recorder that he carried with him. He quietly opened it and glanced at the small screen.

    Sure enough, the picture on the screen was in color, and you could see the big red characters on the factory wall. This basically proves that Wang Tao''s speculation is correct.

    To put it simply, Peng Nan borrowed a large amount of mental power from nowhere. These mental powers were so huge that even Wang Tao and the zombie lords could not crack them. But this kind of mental power does not attack, they just rigidly form this gray space...

    ?Wang Tao is still very interested in this gray space. If he can also borrow this kind of spiritual power, or figure out what this principle is, it will also be of great help to his spiritual awakening.

    ?But for a while, he couldn''t figure out the reason. Moreover, Peng Nan''s awakening has a time limit. The gray space is composed of sections. The sooner the place is built, the sooner it will disappear. The trap must be set before the gray space disappears one after another. Can''t waste time.

    ?Wang Tao didn''t say much and just followed them. Wang Tao was also curious about what kind of trap they had set, and they were sure to kill three fifth-level lord zombies.

    "Friend, which faction are you from? I have no impression of you at all..."

    At this time, Yu Li, who was as fat as a ball, came to Wang Tao and asked in a low voice. He obviously regarded Wang Tao as someone from Silver Snake Base.

    ?Wang Tao turned to look at him.

    【HP: 110000/110000】

    【Mana amount: 35000/35000】

    【Level: Level 4】

    【Impurities in the body: 46%】

    【Awakening: Kinetic Energy Absorption】

    【Kinetic Energy Absorption: All basic attributes are improved, and a large number of physical attacks can be absorbed within a certain period of time】

    ?This Yu Li is obviously a system awakener, and his awakening seems to be a purely defensive...human shield?

    “There are so many people in the base, you haven’t seen it before, that’s not normal. I am in a very inconspicuous small force..."

    ?Wang Tao spoke casually.

    "Too…"

    Yu Li nodded. He didn''t actually want to know Wang Tao''s identity. Anyway, Wang Tao''s appearance was very distinguishable, and he was one of the few awakened people. He could find out after looking back. He just wanted to find a topic and see if he could win over Wang Tao.

    This is not the first time that these four awakened people have cooperated, so they know their respective characters very well. After killing those zombies, they might take action because of the uneven distribution of the spoils. This kind of thing has happened before. After all, there are only three fifth-level lords now, and there are four of them - oh no, there are five of them now, and there will be some wrangling later.

    Peng Nan is alone and seems to be a loner. But Shen Cuishan obviously has a crush on him, and if something really happens, the two of them will most likely join forces. And the taciturn Zhuo Song is Shen Cuishan''s husband - although it seems that Zhuo Song is not interested in Shen Cuishan, and the two of them have no intimate behavior. The so-called husband and wife relationship may have long been in name only. But after all, they knew the basics, and the possibility of them joining forces was definitely greater than that of an outsider like him.

    So Yu Li had to make preparations in advance. If he could win over Wang Tao, if he really took action because of uneven distribution of the spoils, he wouldn''t be too passive...

    ?So next, Yu Li chatted awkwardly with Wang Tao as if he was familiar with it.

    ?Wang Tao had nothing to do, and he was always arguing with Yu Li.

    Wang Tao was a little surprised when he heard Yu Li quietly tell him that Zhuo Song, a taciturn middle-aged man, and Shen Cuishan were legally married before the apocalypse and would still be husband and wife after the apocalypse.

    ?Shen Cuishan is having **** with other men in front of her husband?

    I can only say "the city knows how to play".

    ?But considering Shen Cuishan’s awakening...it seems reasonable?

    The specifics of Shen Cuishan''s awakening are probably unknown to them, including Zhuo Song.

    ?Wang Tao subconsciously took another look at Zhuo Song''s attributes.

    【HP: 120000/120000】

    【Blue amount: 40000/40000】 ????【Level: fourth level】

    【Impurities in the body: 57%】

    【Awakening: Powerful】

    【Strong: All basic attributes are improved in all aspects, and strength is greatly improved (the extent of improvement is related to the upper limit of awakened energy)】

    【Status: Charming】

    【Charm: oneself is subject to a certain charm and indulges in fantasy】

    ?This Zhuo Song is also a system awakener. The awakening is powerful, and he is considered a good system awakener.

    But he has a [charm] state on his head... This charm was obviously exerted by Shen Cuishan.

    ?Just looking at this explanation, Wang Tao didn''t know to what extent he was charmed. But if we consider the fact that he and Shen Cuishan are husband and wife... then Wang Tao can basically be sure that Zhuo Song is definitely terminally ill.

    After all, most couples cannot tolerate the other partner cheating, let alone in front of themselves, unless they have some special hobbies.

    Shen Cuishan''s awakening is that the higher the favorability of the opposite sex, the stronger the charm effect. Zhuo Song was able to fall into the trap, obviously because he had a high impression of this woman.

    Shen Cuishan obviously took advantage of Zhuo Song''s affection for her and turned Zhuo Song into what he is now. But she is not satisfied with this, she also wants to turn Peng Nan into one of her dogs, and Yu Li is probably within her goal range. She even had her mind set on Wang Tao... I have to say, this woman is very courageous.

    I just don’t know. Does Shen Cuishan know clearly? Peng Nan is also a spiritually awakened person. If she didn''t know, then she might get kicked. After all, charm is a spiritual ability, and the resistance of spiritually awakened people is naturally stronger. But if she knows, it means she is sure to deal with Peng Nan...

    "interesting…"

    Just after Wang Tao clarified the relationship between them, Peng Nan suddenly stopped.

    “The first trap is placed here.”

    Peng Nan took out a dark green ball the size of a volleyball from his backpack and placed it directly on the ground.

    "Um?"

    ?Wang Tao was a little surprised when he saw this thing.

    【Poison gas bomb】

    【Level 4 (epic)】

    【Durability +1, attack power +100, can be activated regularly, explodes after activation, forming a large poisonous gas area, lasting 1 hour (activation requires awakening energy)】

    It turned out to be a disposable weapon!

    ?This is somewhat similar to the "Explosive Heart" that Wang Tao obtained before, but the Explosive Heart is at the fifth level, and the attack power is increased by 1000, while the attack power of this poison gas bomb is only 100, which is a 10-fold difference in attack power.

    But the exploding heart explodes instantly, and only causes damage in that moment. And this poison gas bomb forms a large poison gas area, causing continuous damage!

    ?Then this 100 attack power is not low, especially if it lasts for an hour, it is estimated that it can really kill the fifth-level lord zombie.

    ? No wonder they were confident enough to hunt down three fifth-level lord zombies. It turned out to be because of this trump card.

    Since this is a ranged weapon, the number of zombies is not important. There is actually not much difference between three fifth-level lord zombies and one fifth-level lord zombie. As long as these zombies stay within the range of the poison gas, they will most likely be poisoned to death. This is obviously not the first time they have done this kind of thing, and they have had successful experiences. Most zombies are relatively stupid and cannot run away.

    But if you encounter smart zombies, or zombies that exceed the strength of a fifth-level lord, the situation may be different...

    "What is this?"

    ?Wang Tao asked proactively.

    “This is good stuff, you’ll know it later!”

    There is no direct explanation for the mystery of Li Shen.

    Shen Cuishan, on the other hand, winked at Wang Tao and then explained:

    “This thing can release a lot of poisonous gas and can poison level five zombies. This thing is very valuable. We spent a lot of money this time! You are a bargain..."

    If something is expensive, it means someone is selling it... If there is a chance, Wang Tao would also like to make some spares.

    "I see…"

    ?Wang Tao nodded and said nothing more.

    Peng Nan timed the gas bomb to explode in one hour, and led others to install some gas bombs in other places. Each poison gas bomb has a different time. He calculates the time and makes these poison gas bombs explode at the same time.

    I have to say that Peng Nan''s gray space was really easy to use. Along the way, the zombies completely ignored them and allowed them to install the bomb right under their noses.

    ??Wang Tao also met Jiang Shixue and Lightning. Wang Tao used mental communication in advance to make Jiang Shixue hide, so she and Lightning were not discovered by everyone.

    ?Wang Tao asked Jiang Shixue to take a look at his location to see if he could be found. Jiang Shixue said there was nothing there and she couldn''t feel anyone there at all.

    ?This is similar to Wang Tao''s speculation. No one can detect them within the factory.

    Then Jiang Shixue told Wang Tao that she and Ling Ling searched the factory and did not find the sixth-level lord zombies. However, they did see the three fifth-level lord zombies and felt that they were not very strong. She and Ling Ling did not take action, leaving Wang Tao with them. With.

    “Huh? Is there really no sixth-order lord here?”

    ?Wang Tao is a little surprised, how can these three fifth-level lords live in peace with each other?

    ?But since Jiang Shixue and Lightning can''t be found, there should indeed be no sixth-order lord here.

    In this case, Wang Tao has to deal with these three fifth-level lords first. He cannot give up the heads of the fifth-level lords to Peng Nan and the others.

    ?So, Wang Tao found an opportunity and left the gray space without others paying attention.

    After leaving, Wang Tao instantly felt that the world seemed to become richer and more colorful.

    “It’s a very interesting ability, I’ll study it carefully later…”

    ?Wang Tao''s figure flashed and disappeared.
