Pandora turned to look at the old man Lich, and the eight-armed skeleton also turned to look at the old man Lich.
The old man Lich grinned, as if he had a toothache, and said doubtfully: "Is the alarm broken? Is it a false alarm?"
"brush!"
The sound of breaking wind sounded, and a figure flashed and took shape next to the old man Lich. Hearing the siren, his expression was solemn, but it was Richard who had just rushed back from the Garden of Eden.
Looking at the old man Lich, Richard, who was still unclear about the specific situation, asked aloud: "Why did the alarm sound?"
"That, I don't know either." The old man Lich spread his hands and replied, "I was sleeping just now, and it suddenly rang. I thought it was the tree in the room that rebelled, but there is no movement yet. , the door isn’t open, it doesn’t look like it, so I can’t figure out what’s going on. By the way, isn’t it because the thing you made is unreliable and it’s a false alarm?”
After listening to the old man Lich's words, Richard thought for a while and said: "False alarms are indeed possible, but I have done a lot of processing before, and the probability is very low. Generally speaking, as long as it is triggered, it is certain values in the room Crossed the cordon.
Rather than a false alarm, I am more willing to believe that it was indeed the tin tree in the room that did something. He still hasn't opened the door yet. It's possible that the other party didn't want to confront him head-on, but escaped from the room underground or in other ways. "
"What should we do?" the old lich asked.
Richard's eyes flashed with a faint light, and he looked towards Research Room No. 3, only to find that his field of vision was blurry, blocked by something like white mist, making it difficult to see clearly.
"There is high-intensity chaotic energy in the room. I can't see through the situation inside." Richard replied, pursed his lips and said, "It seems that we must enter the room to understand the situation to determine what exactly happened."
After Richard finished speaking, he walked towards Research Room No. 3 without hesitation.
Pandora blinked, followed quickly, and said loudly: "I'll be with you."
Richard turned his head, held Pandora in place with one hand and said, "You stay!"
"But… "
"You stay on guard outside. When I call you, come back into the room." Richard said.
"Then..." Pandora and Richard looked at each other for a moment, and finally agreed, "Okay, but don't forget it when the time comes."
"Got it." Richard continued walking towards Research Room No. 3. After walking a few steps, he thought of something, turned his head and scanned the many skeletons with his eyes, and then looked at the old man Lich.
The old man Lich's expression tightened, and when he noticed that Richard was looking at him, he said dryly: "Hey, boy, if you don't want to bring your little girl in, don't bring me in with my old bones either. Otherwise, it will be really bad. It’s too much.”
"Don't worry, I didn't want to take you in." Richard said, "I just realized that the skeleton you transformed performed very well. It was able to form such a tight defense formation before I came back. Even if the skeleton inside If a tree really rebels, it should be able to withstand it for a while.”
"Ah, this..." The old Lich's expression was a little strange, and he laughed a few times and said, "It's just so-so, you're overdue."
"It's you who are being humble, Mr. Afu, you are much better than I thought." Richard said, without saying anything else, he walked straight to the door of Research Room 3.
A dazzling golden light emerged from his body, the armor of Achilles wrapped around his body, and he stretched his hand towards the door vigilantly.
There was a palm-sized bump on the door, with dense magic patterns engraved on it. Richard pressed his hand on it and injected free energy elements to activate it.
"brush!"
A red light flashed on the bulge, and a series of "click, click, click" sounds came from the door. That was the mechanical equipment at work. In order to guard against the everlasting ancient tree species tinwood inside the door, Richard made strict arrangements for the room. There are four kinds of protection for the door alone.
"Click!"
Finally, with a crisp sound, the door opened.
Richard stepped in with increased vigilance, his eyes quickly scanning everything in the room.
I saw that most of the energy-absorbing towers that had almost filled the room had suffered unknown attacks and melted into pools of metal juice under the high temperature. Chaotic energy floated in the air, hitting the "Arch of Achilles" from time to time, causing ripples.
The temperature in the room was extremely high, and the surrounding walls had varying degrees of burnt marks, so the alarm was triggered.
When Richard cast his gaze towards the center of the room, he couldn't help but blink his eyes, and saw that the ancient tin tree unexpectedly did not run away.
The iron frame and glass pool that originally supported the opponent have melted under the high temperature. At this time, the opponent is fixed to the ground with roots. A human face on the tree trunk looks over, showing an extremely innocent expression.
"Hey, that boy, I have to make it clear that what happened in this room just now has absolutely nothing to do with me. Although I have cursed you before, something will happen to your iron bumps sooner or later, but if something does happen to them, you can't Blame me.
I... I just quietly absorbed my energy from the void. Who knows why, but those iron knots of yours suddenly got out of control. I can feel that the amount of energy they absorbed from the void suddenly increased, and then they couldn't support it, and they were melted by the overflowing energy, and became what they are now.
I was unlucky enough to be affected by them. If I hadn't used the absorbed energy to protect myself in time and offset the attacks, I would have been seriously injured. In short, this matter really, really has nothing to do with me. It's all your fault. So don't blame me.
My current situation is pretty normal, but I won't be able to provide you with energy until you repair your equipment. This is all your own fault. I request that this period of time be included in our contract and cannot be deducted from me! In addition, you have to shorten the contract service time for me, at least... one... half a month! "
After listening to Gu Shu Xi Mu's long and emotional speech, Richard moved his eyebrows and was a little stunned.
The situation in front of him was a little different from what he thought. He originally thought of taking advantage of the ancient tree Ximu's rebellion to force the other party to sign a new contract as a victim. How come in the blink of an eye, the victim becomes the other person
Did the other party really not rebel? Are all accidents caused by energy-absorbing towers
Or maybe the other party deliberately destroyed the energy-absorbing tower, and then pretended to be innocent to test his own limits step by step
Richard frowned deeply.
Gu Shu saw Richard's expression and said quickly: "Hey, don't believe it, what I said is true. I have always strictly fulfilled the contract and I have absolutely no other intentions. This time something went wrong. It has nothing to do with me.”
"maybe."
Richard was noncommittal, his eyes flashed with a faint light, and he opened his gaze, carefully observing the chaotic energy floating in the room and other details, trying to restore what happened at the scene before.
