There are many people in this place, not only Yan Rong, but also some tourists and characters in many scenes. Lu Ning even saw Teng Zijian sleeping under a table. He was also very different from him in another world. .
"Professor, I brought someone here."
Walking to the door of a small office, he knocked hard and said this to the person inside.
"Come in."
Gaishichong's voice came from inside, and Lu Ning had just experienced the death of this person in another place less than an hour ago.
The door was pushed open. It was a small laboratory filled with various equipment. In addition to Gaschon, there were several people debugging the equipment and doing some experiments. It looked very busy. Gaschon's attire is no different from his other self, and he even has a metal box at hand.
"Wait a moment, I'll record the data." Ge Shichong waved his hand, not looking back at the two people, but busy finishing the work in hand. After about ten minutes, he turned around, sat on the stool and looked at the two people carefully.
"You still have some differences."
He sighed.
"Didn't you have a chance to observe it before?"
"Haha, most people will start a fight when they see their other self after coming here. I have never seen someone as harmonious as a pair of sisters like you."
"A fight?" Lu Ning asked, "They may not know..."
"Finding myself in a strange and weird world, and then meeting someone who looks exactly like me, it would be strange not to start a fight." Gaishichong stroked his beard, "Of course, it is even more so after understanding the relationship between each other. It’s surprising that you can live in peace despite fighting to the death.”
It seems that Xie Ku didn't explain the reason to the professor, and that's right, there's no way to explain this kind of thing.
"Then Professor, do you know about your own death on the other side?"
"I know... he supports the crowd, but it's a pity that he is powerless. Faced with real malice, he has no strength to resist. But this also gave me a little understanding of the existence of the enemy and how those previous accidents happened."
"Accident?"
"You're not an outsider either. Lu Ning has helped me a lot, including detecting nodes. She handles things like that. Since she wants to help you, I'll do my best... Let's go out and talk. "Gai Shichong picked up a memory card, stretched out his hand and invited the two of them to walk to the small conference room next door.
The three of them took their seats in order. Geishchong connected the memory card to the equipment in the conference room and started the projection.
"Let me make it clear first. Although you are essentially the same person, I know who Lu Ning is who has helped me a lot, so I will only tell you the information. I will not let anyone assist you in terms of actions."
"That's enough. I don't have any merit here, and I won't ask for more." Lu Ning nodded. Gaishichong was very satisfied with her attitude and opened the campus map on the projection.
"Dream Mirror Channel needs to find nodes where resonance can occur in all worlds. Although this process is relatively cumbersome, we have tried our best to collect enough information and locked the nine best node locations."
"Why still nine?"
"These are nine locations that are not easy to reach. What do you think this correspondence indicates?"
Nine red dots appear on the map, which are located in the B2 Astronomy Laboratory Building, A5 Teaching Building, E1 Auditorium, Swimming Pool, Stadium, Teachers’ Dormitory Area, Park in Front of Building D1, Square in Front of Student Activity Center and E0 School History Hall.
There was no pattern to these nine positions, and they did not appear to have any shape on the map. However, Lu Ning immediately understood what Ge Shichong meant when he saw the two positions.
"Where is the ruler of the nine worlds?"
"It should be said that it is the place they are guarding." Gaishichong nodded, and with a swipe of his finger, nine blurry pictures appeared in the corresponding positions. They were pictures of nine monsters of different shapes taken from a distance. .
"They can also move, but they won't be too far away from the guarded location. There is no doubt that they are hindering the establishment of the Dream Mirror Channel."
"Isn't it possible to build it from another world?"
"The construction of the Dream Mirror Channel requires a cornerstone, which we call a reference datum. Only by building a spatial model based on this can an appropriate resonance period be derived. Due to the dimensional differences between multiple worlds, between their respective three-dimensional worlds The parity between them is not conserved, so the relative conversion method cannot be used for datum positioning."
"To put it simply, there is only one node in a world?"
"Yes, if you want to leave, you can only build a dream mirror channel at the corresponding node in that world. There are other ways to escape, but they are unsafe and depend on luck. If you want to take a gamble, you can try."
Lu Ning naturally didn't want to take a gamble.
Scenario missions do not include killing the rulers of each world, but as the exploration deepens, it is expected that you will always have to face these powerful beings.
"Do you know the power of those monsters?"
"Qiang, we only know this." Gaishichong said, "I will not send people to test the strength of those monsters. I have only tried to build it when some monsters were far away, but the monsters returned quickly, so the construction It always fails. Now that I think about it, there should be others secretly intervening here."
"Please tell me the specific location of the node and how to build the Dream Mirror Channel."
"Yes, I encourage anyone to try, but don't risk your own life... Even if you are divided, life is still only once, and death will not let go of any individual for this reason." Ge Shichong stood up and stood up from the side. He took down a document from the shelf and took out a bound copy from it and handed it to Lu Ning.
"Your mental state doesn't look very good. Do you want to take a rest here? This underground facility is very safe and the elements will not be refreshed here." After finishing all this, Gaishichong looked at Lu Ning and asked.
"Maybe...but I hope to have a quiet place, thank you."
"I can only help you so much."
At the professor's signal, Henku took Lu Ning to the resting place.
Since a large amount of space needs to be freed up to place experimental supplies and various devices, a capsule-style rest cabin is used in the rest area, and there is no power supply. This area is basically dark and can only rely on the light from the front. Learn the way a little bit.
"You can choose an empty space to rest. I know you are still on guard now. If you don't do this, I won't be me. But you can rest assured that I don't need my own victory, as long as Lu Ning can survive in the end." After Xinku brought Lu Ning here, he gave some instructions on how to use it and left. However, the words he said before leaving made Lu Ning a little embarrassed.
She found a cabin with the lights off and got in. Her body relaxed and she felt sleepy immediately. Calculating it carefully, it had been a long time since she had slept and rested, and this scene did not automatically restore her energy like during the blood disaster. She was really tired.
Leveling up...is really a double test of physical strength and will.
Vaguely, she fell asleep.
===================
The crimson sky is dotted with veins like blood vessels.
The walls and floor are also red and look reminiscent of muscles and blood, just like the anatomy diagrams seen in biology class.
The air was filled with fishy smell, the smell of fresh blood mixed together. The steel bars that originally supported the building now turned into hard white bones, protruding from all over the wall, sharp and ferocious.
This is a world like a nightmare. The huge pressure as if inside the body of a giant creature is almost suffocating. As far as the eye can see, walls of flesh and blood block all the entrances and exits around it.
Walking on the road are skinny humanoid monsters wearing torn red cloaks. They wear top hats and have black masks on their faces. They usually hold rapiers and shotguns in their hands.
If you approach these monsters, they will not attack immediately, but will salute first, as if this is a duel ceremony. But that doesn't mean you can use this gap to attack. If you do anything that violates their "etiquette", superb swordsmanship and metal storm-like barrages will tear you apart.
"They were once human."
The blood-clothed hunter I saw before me, who could communicate, was holding a glass of scarlet wine, and I could see the clues from his body. His skin had hardened and started to become thinner, and his face was so stiff that he could no longer express any expression.
"They are our destination, too. New hunters hunt old hunters, and then become new rangers. It's an eternal cycle."
"But where do new hunters come from?"
"Yeah, where did it come from..."
The blood-clothed hunter took a sip of wine, with some nostalgia in his tone.
"When I was born, there were still a lot of people in this world."
"If I don't continue, will it still be like this?"
"I have no idea."
He laughed with difficulty. It was very difficult for him to control the muscles in his face.
"But the Rangers killed my friends, and I will continue to kill the Rangers until I become them."
"This behavior will not change anything, it will only make things worse."
"Yeah...but we have no better choice."
The blood-clothed hunter drank all his wine.
"At least after that, traditions and skills can still be seen from our remains."
A long time passed after that chat.
I later saw him again on the ruined street, no, it was it.
It was wearing a top hat, still holding the old-fashioned shotgun, and a rapier that was 13 centimeters longer than the average person's equipment.

=============
Lu Ning woke up from the scarlet dream, but her mood was very calm. The closed and small space around her brought her a rare sense of security in the darkness, although this was just an illusion.
Her spirit has recovered a lot, and the fatigue on her body has been relieved to a certain extent after sleeping. She doesn't know how long it has passed, but it will definitely not be long, because she has not experienced the gradual change yet.
When Lu Ning walked along the corridor to the rest area outside, she found Teng Zijian already sitting there, tapping on a tablet.
"you're awake?"
Hearing the footsteps, Teng Zijian raised his head and waved to Lu Ning.
"I recognize you..."
"You've met other mes, haven't you? That's pretty good. It means that at least some of me are still alive and living reasonably well." Teng Zijian put the tablet on the table, "Do I have a companion?"
"Yes, Liu Shan, Uncle Zhen, Lu Bin, Chen Qiguang..."
"They are all alive."
Lu Ning noticed that Teng Zijian's hands were shaking slightly.
"You don't hate suffering, do you?"
"Yes, I am Jian Xin. I used door glue to escape here." Teng Zijian nodded.
"I remember Jian Xin..."
"I feel paranoid and suspicious, and gradually become distant from each other. I am good at provoking interpersonal relationships, but I can't avoid my suspicious temper. It is because of this that I lost all my companions." Teng Zijian smiled at himself, "After being taken in here, I also I basically keep a distance from others, otherwise my suspicion will continue to worsen. Sure enough, a person with a serious personality deviation cannot exist for a long time... Did you meet Zhengshu? "
"Yes, we have experienced the gradual change together."
"If you can see him again, tell him to cherish those hard-earned partners more and never make irreparable mistakes because of a moment of soft-heartedness. This is definitely a problem he is prone to."
Teng Zijian paused, and then added: "If I can see Liu Shan, tell her that I like her."
"...It's best not to let me tell you about this kind of thing."
"Ha, just treat it as a complaint...you're leaving, right?"
Lu Ning nodded. She glanced at the clock in the lounge. Dawn was coming soon, which meant that she had to go through a gradual transfer to the world. She wanted to leave this underground facility. Most of it was excavated manually and changed the world. I'm afraid it won't be buried in the soil.
"Take this as evidence and as a self-defense weapon."
Teng Zijian took out a narrow sword from under his seat and threw it to Lu Ning. It was the same shape as the one he had seen Teng Zijian use before.
"There are three buttons on the hilt of the sword. After pressing the sword, press the green button to draw the sword powered by air. The blue button can spray chaotic airflow from the blade. If you use the red button, remember to find a merchant to recharge it. It is a one-time ignited slash. . The first two functions can be reused as long as the scabbard is retracted. Holding this also proves that you have seen me."
"Thank you." Lu Ning was in need of a long weapon, so she nodded to him.
"I will probably stay here and not leave. There is no need to tell him where I am, otherwise it will be difficult to deal with him if he comes to kill me... I wish you a safe journey."
Teng Zijian waved his hand lazily, and at this moment, Henku also heard the voice and came over.
"Got to go?"
"Yes."
"When the time is right, I will go back to find you. We are careful to attack. If nothing happens, she represents Lu Ning's killing execution ability, which is the strongest point."
Lu Ning picked up her backpack and nodded to show that she understood.
"There's something I want to ask you before I leave."
"explain."
"Our time is not synchronized, right?"
"If you are referring to the time entering the nine worlds here, it is indeed out of sync. The time difference between the worlds will completely separate us, but this is not a time trick, it is just an error caused by the different time flows in each world. .”
"Those who come in first will have the upper hand in intelligence and development opportunities, and those who come in later will not receive any compensation." Lu Ning said.
"You have to find it yourself. I don't know what kind of compensation there is for those who are behind in time."
