Witch Special

Chapter 155: 600 Seconds That Matter to the Fate of Humanity

Upon hearing that the Hero Association headquarters was facing an unprecedented alien attack and had fallen into an unprecedented predicament, and that the only way to break the deadlock was in his own hands, Genos was so excited that his brain was almost shaking.

Great, this is the moment he has been waiting for, becoming the focus of everyone's attention, saving the world, and becoming the strongest scientist that everyone believes in. He was surprised to find that he is now so close to his dream.

"Great, great! When do we set off? The mass-produced Asura Rhinoceros Beetles are in very healthy condition. As long as they are injected with consciousness, they can immediately go into battle. Boss, how do you want to transport those mass-produced ones to City A? Will the plane be in time?" Kinos's tone now was as fanatical as when he first saw the magic crystal in Lin Zhenxi's hand.

The Kinos gene was Kinos's culmination, a project he dedicated decades to, yet ultimately failed to resolve the genetic breakdown issue. Lin Zhenxi, however, had circumvented this problem with methods unexplainable by science, leaving Kinos so excited he nearly went insane. And now, Kinos's mental state seemed to be spiraling into insanity.

"I have prepared for this. There is a portal magic spell I left on one wall of the breeding factory. I will go to City A later to complete the part opposite the portal. You should awaken all the mass-produced types now." Lin Zhenxi turned over a trump card that was left next to Kinos.

But Kinos no longer cared how many tricks Lin Zhenxi had in store for him. Ever since he'd learned that Lin Zhenxi could flip his memory upside down at any moment, even hiding the fact that he'd skipped a grade and was still wetting the bed from her, he'd adopted a completely shrewd attitude towards Lin Zhenxi. "Do whatever you want to me, just pay me on time and don't interfere with my research. The rest is up to you."

"Then hurry up. The consciousness injection process is very fast and it will be completed in about ten minutes."

"The time... should be about right. Okay, let's get started." After saying that, Lin Zhenxi hung up the phone and began fiddling with the glass altar, looking for a suitable location to draw the other half of the portal.

At least it has to be a flat surface and it has to be sturdy enough.

This condition is already very low, it can’t be any lower.

The permanent portal is a very advanced magic circle. It not only requires a strong and stable source of magic power, but also has high requirements for the magic circle base. In this world without mystery, it is impossible to find materials that meet the requirements to make a permanent portal.

But if it is a disposable unstable portal, or even a one-way portal that can only go out but not back, then the requirements are much lower. It may even be enough to just place appropriate sacrifices, draw the magic circle accurately, and the artist's intentions are pure enough, then even ordinary people can draw a teleportation magic circle that can summon strange things.

Of course, ordinary people lack the magical power to activate a magic circle, and casually drawing one would cost them their lives, and even their souls after death. In short, it was a very dangerous act. Those born virgins often attempted to summon succubi through secret rituals circulating online, unaware that their lives were already sealed the moment the demon responded to their calls, and the consequences were undoubtedly dire.

Lin Zhenxi now plans to find a balanced wall to draw a one-way portal. Since it is a one-time use, the specifications of this magic circle are directly reduced by two levels. As long as Lin Zhenxi and Yanyan cooperate, there will be no problem in drawing the magic circle within ten minutes.

So, where to choose...

Lin Zhenxi searched around and found no suitable location besides the Hero Association headquarters. The previous large-scale alien bombing had practically leveled the center of City A, leaving no flat, standing wall. If they wanted to quickly support the battlefield, where the balance of victory was already tilting towards the aliens, the Hero Association headquarters, closest to the battlefield, was the best choice.

Therefore, Lin Zhenxi needs to find someone in charge first to convey the news that the mass-produced Ashura Rhinoceros Beetle is about to arrive at the battlefield, so as to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings and make her situation worse.

After all, Genos was a researcher of synthetic monsters, and the mass-produced Asura Rhinoceros Beetle was undoubtedly a monster, just a controllable one. If they weren't warned in advance, when a large number of mass-produced Asuras emerged from the Hero Association headquarters, the heroes fighting there might think the headquarters had been breached, and their morale would drop, leading to a complete collapse.

Lin Zhenxi found the man in the suit who had challenged her in the previous meeting. She was sorry, but she was quite unrecognizable when it came to these random characters. The suits all wore essentially the same style, and she couldn't remember a single one. But the man in the suit who had asked for a magic demonstration was different. She had cast a Confusion Charm on him, and his presence was tinged with her magical aura, making it easy for her to find him.

The level of this man in a suit was probably not low. When Lin Zhenxi used the glass altar to locate his position, he was already in a combat command room with screens hanging on the walls.

The battle was at a stalemate, the situation was unfavorable, and the atmosphere in the combat command room was naturally extremely heavy. A sense of despair was spreading in the command room.

Lin Zhenxi used Apparition to appear in the equipment room next to the combat command room, pushed open the door, walked out, turned a corner and entered the command room.

In this oppressive atmosphere, everyone became a little nervous, and the guard on duty at the door was no exception. After seeing someone coming in, and it was a stranger, he did not use non-lethal police equipment, but directly pulled out a loaded pistol and pointed it at Lin Zhenxi, shouting, "Who are you!"

"Disarm you." At such a close distance and with the other party having no mysterious protection, Lin Zhenxi didn't even bother to pick up the wand. She just pointed her finger at the guard, and the pistol in the guard's hand flew out of his hand and into hers.

It's quite heavy, so it should be suitable for cracking walnuts.

"Don't be so nervous, I'm on your side. Don't take out such dangerous things in a closed space." After saying that, Lin Zhenxi stretched out his hand, ready to return the pistol to the guard.

But when the guard saw the black muzzle of the pistol pointing directly at him, he shuddered with fear and raised his hands.

Lin Zhenxi had never played with a gun before, and didn't know much about the common sense and etiquette of firearms, so it was not surprising that he made such a low-level mistake.

However, seeing that the guard was so scared by her, Lin Zhenxi realized that she shouldn't point the gun at others, so she turned the gun over, held the barrel herself, and pointed the butt of the gun at the guard.

Okay, this time the gun is pointed at Lin Zhenxi himself.

"Ms. Lin, this is not the time to joke. Please explain your purpose." The man in a suit with Lin Zhenxi's magical aura walked over, took the pistol from Lin Zhenxi's hand, turned off the safety, and then put it in the guard's arms and glared at him unhappily.

What a disgrace! Go guard the gate from now on.

"I'm looking for you. You should be of a high status, right?" Lin Zhenxi turned around and asked the man in the suit.

The man in the suit pushed up his glasses and introduced himself. "I'm a special observer assigned by the United Government to the Hero Association, and I'm also the United Government's spokesperson to the Hero Association. Miss Lin, you can talk to me if you have anything to say."

"In other words, what you say can make a difference?" Lin Zhenxi raised his eyebrows and asked.

"At least here, I should be the highest-ranking person."

That's right, if your level is not high enough, how can you be qualified to sit in a room with such a large group of S-class heroes and hold a meeting for them?

"That's good. Go notify everyone. Hold on for another ten minutes, and the reinforcements I'm bringing will arrive. But they look just like weirdos, so don't panic. Those weirdo-looking guys with horns on their heads are friendly forces."

After Lin Zhenxi finished speaking, she took advantage of his moment of distraction and pushed the door open and left. When the man in the suit reacted and wanted to ask Lin Zhenxi what was going on, there was a crisp "bang" sound at the door. When the man in the suit rushed out, Lin Zhenxi was gone.

Ten minutes is ten minutes. Time was running out, so Lin Zhenxi ran directly to the previous meeting room and drew a magic circle on the wall.

Ah, this... The man in the suit felt his scalp tingling at Lin Zhenxi's nonsensical notification, but this was very important information, so the man in the suit did not dare to delay and could only convey Lin Zhenxi's original words to the heroes fighting on the front line.

Hearing that reinforcements were about to arrive, everyone felt a surge of energy. The heroes' defenses had been crushed by the alien army, practically reaching the walls of the Hero Association headquarters. If it weren't for Tornado and Drive Knight suppressing the enemy's air units, and if all the giant alien centipedes hadn't been destroyed by the S-class heroes beforehand, their defenses would have been untenable.

But now, a powerful opponent seemed to have arrived on the battlefield. It was a towering humanoid creature with five heads, its body capable of transforming into various weapons as needed. It was so powerful that it single-handedly fought against five S-class heroes: Silver Fang, Atomic Samurai, Metal Bat, Superalloy Darkshine, and Sexy Criminal. These heroes were unable to provide timely support, causing the defense line to shrink continuously, almost to the point of no return.

But, ten minutes should still be enough. With hope, the exhausted heroes miraculously regained strength. They looked at each other, regained their spirits, and consolidated their defense.

But, with horns on his head, he looks like a monster... What does that mean? He must be a monster, right? Why would a monster come to support the Hero Association? Aren't monsters supposed to be enemies of humans? This question lingered in the hearts of the heroes.

And time is slowly approaching the critical point ten minutes later.
