There are only two tasks left.
One is to send these rescued children back to their adults.
The other is to investigate this assassination phenomenon, find more evidence and documents, and how they did it.
The task of returning these children was given to No. 14, and the task of investigating was No. 5 and No. 8.
No. 3, who is in charge with his hands in his pockets, stands beside him pretending to be cool.
The younger sister and Little Nineteen are in charge of playing.
…
…
Lu Xin was actually curious about No. 14's abilities, because he asked No. 3 how they always understood their situation and came to rescue him at the most critical moment. No., just clicked to No. 14. .
Meaning, the fourteenth brought them here.
How to bring different people who are not even in a high-walled city to the self who is in deep danger in an instant
"I Have a Scroll of Ghosts and Gods"
With this expectation, Lu Xin looked at No. 14, and then saw him move his fat body and walked to the group of dazed and frightened children with a smile, and then suddenly made a face at them , Suddenly a bunch of children were scared to cry, only one child with half an apple in his hand stared blankly at No. 14, not only did not cry, but looked very happy.
So No. 14 grabbed his apple, threw it into his mouth, and Chika ate it up in two bites.
Then the child cried too.
No. 14 fondly stroked the heads of these crying children, then walked to one side and searched for a long time on the ground. Satisfied, he picked up a slightly elongated slate and found a gentle slope. Sit down with the slate on your knees.
Then, the fat fingers began to tap on it.
"What is he doing?"
Lu Xin, who had been watching carefully beside him, was a little sluggish.
No. 3 on the side replied succinctly: "He is sending emails to the relatives of these children."
"?"
Lu Xin looked at No. 14's movements and postures, and found that it was indeed the case.
But the point is...
"What exactly are his abilities?"
"… "
"connect."
No. 3 glanced at Lu Xin and replied calmly: "This fat fat man can walk between different spiritual powers, perceive their differences, and use his own abilities to bind different spiritual powers together. , Let each other realize dialogue and perception, for example, just now, he made these children cry, just to make their spiritual power fluctuate violently."
"I collected samples of their spiritual power when they were in a strong mood, and focused on it, looking for those who are worrying about them, and then let them achieve spiritual connection, so that those adults will look for them all the way. coming."
"… "
"Bravo… "
Listening to No. 3's explanation, Lu Xin sighed in admiration.
After being silent for a while, he suddenly looked at No. 3 and said, "What about you?"
Now he is indeed a little curious. What are the abilities of No. 3 and No. 5, and No. 12, who has not been found yet.
In my own memory, the children in the orphanage have their own characteristics, but their abilities are not clear.
Just like No. 3 drapes a dead pig on his body, making himself look as if he is wearing a piece of clothing, and becomes handsome and handsome, and No. 5 binds himself to the body of an unbelievably powerful man, gaining a powerful body. The power of these naturally seems incredible, but, this is the power they get from the power of "life", not its own power.
Just like myself, my ability comes from the initial pollution.
But he himself is just an ordinary person.
"Ah… "
But after hearing Lu Xin's question, No. 3 just laughed coldly and said, "There is no ability or incompetence."
"It's just a different curse..."
"… "
"The current number three is really, like a dog, and he is shaking up..."
Lu Xin sneered at No. 3 in his heart, thinking that they were all old classmates, why did he put the shelf up...
Suddenly thinking of something, he hurriedly said to No. 3: "So, are you planning to go back to Qinggang with me?"
No. 3 said lightly: "Of course, I said I wanted to help you..."
Saying that, he glanced at Lu Xin's watch.
Lu Xin hurriedly reminded: "Then have you asked the Executive Office for a good leave?"
"?"
No. 3 was stunned for a moment, with a dull expression on his cool face: "Broken..."
"I only took leave with my wife..."
"… "
After speaking, he hurried to the side, took out the latest satellite phone, and started dialing.
"Hey… "
Lu Xin wanted to remind him, but stopped again.
It's the middle of the night now. You wake the leader up from the bed to ask for leave, how can it be better
but…
Forget it, don't remind him, someone as big as No. 3 doesn't understand this, right
Ah…
…
…
While Lu Xin was talking to No. 3, No. 5 and No. 8 had already tested and observed the area where Lu Xin was assassinated and around the forbidden area. Soon, No. 5 seemed to have already Finding something, he waved to Lu Xin from a distance.
"Hey, the secret they used against you has been found."
At this time, No. 5 is controlling the strong man to fold his arms and look arrogant: "I told you, your fifth sister is now a professional, except for the top group of photographers in the world. People, almost no one can deceive me. Similarly, the new drug I want to develop is definitely the top one, No. 9, do you really not consider investing billions in me?"
"Think again, think again..."
While Lu Xin responded in a panic, he squatted down to look at the fragments collected by No. 5.
At the same time, he asked casually, "No. 5, have you got your university diploma now?"
"… "
No. 5 was obviously stunned: "What the hell is that?"
Lu Xin was relieved and began to study this pile of scorched things carefully.
I saw that what No. 5 found out of this ruins were all broken and twisted parts and fragments, all of which had been burned and changed color, even slightly distorted, but you can still see the fine lines and unknown uses on it. The pattern is like a circuit board circuit board.
"Let's put it together."
No. 5 stepped forward and leaned down. The strong man's fingers were thick, but very dexterous.
The pieces were quickly swept together and formed a circle.
When Lu Xin looked again, he was stunned for a moment. He could find that although all the pieces of the parts could not be spliced together completely, it could still be seen that the prototype should be a circle of metal rings. In between, there are precise gears staggered, and many complex circuits and chips are distributed in different positions, forming a nested duplex structure.
"This is… "
"Mysterious power compound exchange device..."
No. 5 looked at these fragments deeply, and there seemed to be a little more mystery in his voice: "You can also understand that..."
"A technology-based, high-precision altar of gods."
Saying that, she looked up at Lu Xin and said, "Those who want your life, it is through this exchange device that they sacrifice the spiritual power of the creatures in the restricted area to the prime, and then exchange the power of the prime. , has affected you..."
"altar?"
Lu Xin was startled by this word, and his expression was slightly surprised.
"Yes, it's the altar."
No. 5 seemed to have known about this type of thing, and whispered: "Long before the red moon event, when the initial gaze was just beginning to project into reality, there were already many mysterious organizations, from ancient documents He found and restored these various sacrifice methods in order to please the gods and exchange for the power of the gods to achieve their own goals and wishes..."
"Oh, there were even some mysterious organizations at that time, because of the recovery of the functions of these altars, they had the ambition to rule the world."
"But they also underestimated the strength of the researchers at the time."
"Their use of the altar was undoubtedly crude and inefficient, and at first they could monopolize these mystical powers because mainstream researchers dismissed their rituals, but as more and more researchers turned their attention to After reading these ancient altars and rituals, many of the principles in them began to be analyzed by them, and new-style altars were built."
"Since then, more efficient and accurate rituals for the power exchange of gods have been researched, and even reports have been formed."
"This report is the report on the research and use of the power of God in the pre-civilization era."
"That is, the predecessor of the 'Black Box Code' that was prevalent in the Land of Chaos."
"… "
After listening to No. 5's story seriously, Lu Xin suddenly remembered his previous experience in Tinder City.
Tinder City, was building hell at that time.
And a considerable part of the power to create hell was taken from No. 2.
The principle is also exchange
"The original power is not so easy to exchange."
At this time, No. 5 sighed lowly and continued:
"All the top researchers and mysterious organizations understand this."
"At first it slept in the abyss, but it has always been active."
"No one can control the beginning, except for the most arrogant people who will mistakenly think that they can. However, the power of the beginning is not unusable. For example, it can be used by offering a fair exchange of part of its power for their own use. ."
"But this kind of thing is dangerous and extremely easy to get out of control, and many people die without knowing it."
"Therefore, there are not many people who study this kind of power."
"Participating in, it's not even as fast as death."
"Especially the spades office, as far as I know, they used to be extremely opposed to this kind of sacrifice."
"This time, such an ambush will be set up for you, which shows that they are really anxious."
"… "
After hearing No. 5 say this, Lu Xin has already solved many doubts.
But at the same time, he suddenly became a little curious, and couldn't help but said to No. 5: "Why... do you know so much?"
"because… "
A mysterious smile suddenly appeared on No. 5's face: "I have been studying these things all the time."
"?"
Lu Xin was taken aback and looked at No. 5 strangely.
Didn't she just say that she is mainly researching a drug that has great significance and influence on this society
"Besides, who do you think I studied these things from?"
When No. 5 said this, his tone suddenly became a little mysterious. He raised his head and glanced around, and then glanced at the direction of No. 14. Then he suddenly lowered his voice and said to Lu Xin, "The Spade Office has blocked it in order to kill you. The eyes of the outside world are looking at the possibility here. Now that this kind of shielding is still in place, I can tell you something about the old dean with confidence..."
As she spoke, her voice was slightly heavy, and she said, "You asked me what the old dean's crazy plan was before."
"I can only tell you a few things I found..."
"altar!"
"The old dean has been secretly building some kind of unprecedented huge altar for so many years..."
"Whether it's this one built by the firm of spades, or the ones I've researched."
"Compared to the old dean, it's nothing compared to nothing."
"The sacrifice of the Spade Office is just a small restricted area creature."
"Even if I research it, the upper limit is only theoretically able to sacrifice a high-walled city..."
"… "
"Just... being able to sacrifice a walled city or just 'just'?"
Lu Xin's heart skipped a beat, looking at No. 5's depressed face, slightly worried.
"And the old dean..."
"If I had to describe it, I would say that he built a..."
No. 5 looked at Lu Xin faintly, and continued to say: "... something that is enough to sacrifice half the world."
"… "
"Shh!"
Lu Xin's expression changed greatly.
He thought hard for a while, but he couldn't imagine what it would be like to sacrifice half of the world.
However, the unconcealed fear on No. 5 has also deeply affected him.
After a while, he managed to remain calm and said nervously, "So, what exactly is he trying to do?"
Sacrifice is in exchange for the original strength.
And in exchange for the initial power, it is also to achieve its own purpose.
Then, Lu Xin couldn't help but wonder about this, the old dean spent his whole life building something like this.
For what purpose
"I don't know, the old dean is the only one who is very careful about this matter and refuses to let anyone see it."
No. 5 shook his head and said in a low voice: "I just followed him during the period of time, and I know that besides building such an altar, there are only two things he cares about most, one is about you. The thing, the other one, is very strange…”
After thinking about it carefully, she whispered: "It's an ultimate logic chain code-named 'Mobius'."
…
"An altar of life enough to sacrifice half a world..."
"The Ultimate Logic Chain Codenamed 'Möbius'..."
"And my seven trials..."
Lu Xin's mood could not help but become slightly excited.
In the feeling, it seems that I know a lot about the old dean all of a sudden.
However, the fragments of information currently grasped by the eyes still seem to be not enough for people to guess the purpose of the old dean.
what does he want to do...
Thinking of this question, Lu Xin's head could not help but swell up a little.
"That's the old dean after all, who knows what's going on in his head?"
Speaking of this, No. 5 also sighed deeply: "If I insist, maybe only No. 7, who has been with the old dean all the time, can possibly know a little bit of this secret, I was in front of the old dean. He acted too smart, so he let me go very early, although he didn't say anything threatening to me when we parted, but I could feel the danger in his eyes."
But before he could say anything worried, No. 5 exhaled softly, and his face was slightly unnatural.
Beneath the appearance of calm that he was trying to maintain was an unconcealed fear.
"Our old dean, someone you can't describe to anyone else..."
"I followed him, and I could feel that there seemed to be a paranoid in his heart..."
She paused and seemed to be thinking about what to say. After a while, she took it up:
"Love!"
"… "
"Yes, it is love."
Five repeated it, as if to make sure he was right.
"No. 9, I don't know what the old dean's final plan is, but, I'm really scared..."
At this time, no one saw them, and the proud and indifferent expression on No. 5's face was gone. The thin and graceful face that grew on the back of the giant ricketed man showed a trembling expression. , a slightly out of control fear expression.
"Because he has a paranoid love for certain things, he is doomed to be indifferent to other things and people."
"Like we..."
"It's like being slaughtered and washed and put on the altar to exchange for something..."
"…Lamb!"
…
…
The words of No. 5's true feelings suddenly made Lu Xin feel a deep sense of horror.
He wanted to comfort Number Five, but opened his mouth, only to find that his throat was dry and he couldn't speak.
The two looked at each other and fell into a long silence.
It's good not to talk about this topic. Now that the old dean's purpose is discussed, they all feel heavy in their hearts.
It's a very complicated feeling.
He clearly felt that some serious danger was approaching, and he was right beside him.
But he couldn't see exactly what it was.
"I found something very serious."
Just when the pressure reached its peak, suddenly, Number Eight came over with a serious face.
Both Lu Xin and No. 5 were slightly startled, and hurriedly turned to look at him.
Just now, No. 5 was only checking in this area where Lu Xin was affected, but No. 8 took the opportunity to check the entire restricted area. No. 5 has found such an important clue and analyzed the assassination logic of the Spade Office, then The eighth...
"A lot of the protective measures around this restricted area are not in place."
No. 8 took out his notebook, which was filled with a lot of things, and said with a serious look: "It can be confirmed that there are at least several places where there are construction cuts, and the alarm facilities in several places are unreasonable... "
"The attitude is too serious. With such an attitude, how can we ensure that nothing happens in the restricted area?"
"… "
Both Lu Xin and No. 5 were stunned.
After a long time, Lu Xin murmured, "Then what are you going to do with it?"
"Of course, I found the mailboxes of the top executives of the Soda City Administrative Office and reported them with their real names."
No. 8 said with a serious face: "How can something like this sit idly by?"
Lu Xin and No. 5 felt helpless all of a sudden.
Eight or eight...
Being such an old man, his role is not even as good as that of his younger sister and the 19th National Congress.
At least they didn't mess up...
…
…
Gumbling...
Also at this moment, in the high altitude in the distance, there was an anxious sound of propeller turning.
Everyone was slightly nervous. They narrowed their eyes and saw two helicopters coming quickly. When they came close, they began to descend, and then stopped at a distance of fifty meters. There was someone in the cabin. He rushed over quickly, acted well, and seemed to be professional soldiers. Lu Xin saw their epaulets and was slightly relieved that they were all arranged by Qinggang.
"Mr. Soldier..."
The visitor was also a little anxious, and called out his identity early: "I am the captain of the Qinggang secret security team, Zhou Quan."
"Excuse me... are you okay?"
"… "
Seeing the anxious expressions on their faces, Lu Xin frowned slightly.
It can be seen that they are also nervous, and there are even traces of battles on their bodies. The bandages are hastily bandaged, and they can smell the residual smell of gunpowder on their bodies. Although they don't know what happened, they also vaguely understand what they came here. the whole story.
"nothing."
Lu Xin smiled and said, "I was almost killed."
"But fortunately, my classmates saved me."
"… "
This sentence made the captain of the security team sweat out of fear, and his hands and feet were a little cramped.
"Mr. Soldier, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry..."
"We received false news, and a major mistake occurred in a link where there was no problem at all, which led us to be led to other places. After a fierce battle, we got out. The four team members have already... alas , in any case, it is our work mistake, Mr. Shan Bing, I dare not expect your understanding, this matter is really our problem."
In the process of saying these words, his attitude also changed from anxious to somewhat helpless.
As a professional security guard, he naturally understands it very well.
Even if these people are deliberately led to other places, major mistakes in work have already been caused.
But Lu Xin saw that he was so nervous, he was slightly startled, and then said with a hurried smile: "It's alright, it's not your fault."
"Actually, I've noticed something myself..."
After a slight pause, he turned to No. 5, and his expression became slightly gloomy.
It's like talking to the security team, but also telling No. 5 and others:
"Although there is no evidence, the group of killers just now seems to know me a little too well."
"Moreover, there is really no lower limit to what they can do in the process."
"We have just made the biggest decision, so before doing these things, we must reassure ourselves first."
"So, I think it's time to go back to Qinggang and investigate what's going on here."
"… "
After being silent for a while, he whispered, "I need to figure out what's going on."
"Fortunately, I used to be more rigorous in my work. I placed a spy on the killer's side in advance to help me collect evidence."
"so… "
"… "
Speaking of which, Lu Xin's eyes rarely showed a touch of decisiveness and gloom:
"If someone really did this, he must be found out..."
