Chapter 38 Genetic Lock

The intense life-and-death crisis made Lin Shi loosen the rope in his hand.

But it was not enough.

Something suddenly appeared in front of him.

A riot shield!

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Three bullets landed on the riot shield almost at the same time with a slight difference.

What made Lin Shi feel scared was that the three shots were aimed at three fatal parts of him.

The enemy even calculated that he would let go later? ?

How is this possible? !

With a muffled sound, Lin Shi fell on the ground full of rotten leaves and weeds.

He rolled over on the spot and hid behind a tree as thick as a person.

His heart beat very fast, proving that Lin Shi, who had just avoided a fatal blow, was not calm at the moment.

If he didn't have space.

If he couldn't pick up things at will.

If he didn't react quickly.

The three bullets just now should have hit his head, neck, and heart.

The other two positions were fine, but his neck had no protection. If he had been shot, he might have died here today.

What a terrible gunmanship!

Lin Shi leaned against a tree and calmed his heartbeat.

"Ugh!!"

A scream suddenly sounded from two hundred meters away.

Lin Shi was startled and carefully used the thermal sensing night vision goggles to investigate the situation.

He found that the only living bodyguard had fallen to the ground and twitched.

There were no other creatures around.

Lin Shi suspected that there was a trick and did not go over.

Instead, he took out a crossbow and shot an arrow at the man.

After being hit by an arrow, Lin Shi found that the man was still twitching and did not dodge at all.

Lin Shi then approached carefully.

When he got closer, he found that the bodyguard was bleeding from his mouth and nose, with a distorted expression, as if he was in great pain.

His body was twitching uncontrollably.

The arrow just hit the man's thigh.

There was another arrow on the man's arm.

But it seemed that the man had no time to care about these injuries.

Seeing Lin Shi's figure, shock flashed in No. 2's eyes, as if he couldn't believe that Lin Shi was still alive.

He tried his best to control his mouth:

"How could you... not be dead..."

Lin Shi picked up No. 2's pistol that had fallen to the ground and pointed it at No. 2's head.

"What's wrong with you?"

"It's... gene collapse..."

"Gene collapse?"

Lin Shi frowned.

"The sequelae of unlocking the gene lock... I..."

No. 2 wanted to say something, but he vomited a mouthful of blood.

Gene lock? !

There are people who can unlock the gene lock in peacetime?

Shocked in his heart, Lin Shi asked: "How can I save you?"

He didn't really want to save this person, but wanted to know the secret of the gene lock.

This is the first human who unlocked the gene lock that Lin Shi met.

The end of the world is coming, and danger is everywhere.

If you can ask something from this person and unlock the gene lock in advance, you will have a stronger power to protect yourself.

"Hey... pocket..."

No. 2's eyes have begun to roll up.

Lin Shi squatted down, fumbled around, and found a box from the lining of the man's coat.

"Is this it?"

No. 2 nodded with difficulty.

Lin Shi opened the box, and inside was a blue pill.

He glanced at No. 2 who was staring at the pill in his hand.

Lin Shi broke the pill in half and put one half into No. 2's mouth.

He stepped back two steps and raised the gun again to aim at No. 2.

No. 2 swallowed the pill with blood, and his body slowly calmed down.

He lay there without moving.

"Anything you want to ask? Ask it, I don't have much time."

No. 2's voice was a little hoarse, and he obviously knew the purpose of Lin Shi's help.

Lin Shi asked:

"How to unlock the gene lock? Tell me and I'll give you this half of the pill."

No. 2 smiled and asked back:

"Do you know what a gene lock is?"

Lin Shi shook his head.

He only knew a little bit. In his previous life, he had always been an ordinary person. Even if he had been in the eighth year of the apocalypse, he had only accumulated some combat experience.

"Gene lock, I don't know who named it. I also found some information after opening the gene lock. There are five gene locks in the human body.

When you open the first stage of the gene lock, your brain will block all external interference, and you can remember things that you usually forget after reading it once.

When fighting in this state, you can use everything around you, and your brain will calculate calmly like a computer.

When you open the second stage, you can perfectly control every bit of strength in your body and every inch of muscle. Even if you only have 50 kilograms of strength, you can kill a boxing champion.

I don't know about the later stages, I just opened the first stage.

To unlock the first stage of the gene lock, you need pain, extreme pain."

Lin Shi frowned: "Pain? Can you be more specific?"

"I don't know the details. When I opened the gene lock for the first time, I was in a state of shock. I don't know how I survived."

No. 2's eyes were blank, as if he remembered something.

"Then the shots you fired just now were the state of opening the gene lock? Why did you become like this now? Is it related to opening the gene lock?"

Lin Shi asked quickly.

No. 2's face was obviously not right, and it became paler and paler.

"That's right. I just entered the gene lock state, but my body can't bear the sequelae of opening the gene lock.

This is my fifth time to unlock the gene lock. My genes are on the verge of collapse. If I don't unlock the gene lock this time, I may still be able to live for a while. Now even if I have drugs to maintain... Wow! "

No. 2 spit out a mouthful of blood, and the black blood still exudes a foul smell.

"What is this medicine you just took?" Lin Shi still held half a pill in his hand.

"This medicine is something that controls the sequelae of unlocking the gene lock. It also has the function of repairing injuries, but it is no longer useful to me. "

No. 2 cracked his teeth full of blood:

"You want to know where this came from? Answer me a question first, and I will tell you."

"You ask."

"How did you dodge my shot just now? I have calculated all your reactions. It is impossible for you to dodge it. "

Lin Shi's eyes flashed. This is about his biggest secret.

However, facing the increasingly distracted eyes of the man in front of him, Lin Shi still said that he also wanted to know where this medicine came from:

"Because I just blocked the bullet with something. "

No. 2's eyes flashed with doubt, not understanding what Lin Shi used to block it.

But he had already got the answer he wanted, knowing that it was not his mistake, No. 2 smiled:

"It's okay to tell you, this was made by the Shen family. The outside world thinks that the Shen family is just a company that studies energy. In fact, the Shen family is involved in many fields. It is bigger than you think."

No. 2 said slowly.

"Why are you telling me this?"

Lin Shi stared at the man in front of him who was about to die, judging the authenticity of his words.
