Another purple beam of light shot into the sky from the direction of the auditorium.
"Is this the second one? Is this really the ruler of each world being defeated? The ice core obviously spent so much time..." Yan Rong's expression was clearly in disbelief.
"The side of the ice core is delayed and weakened. If I were the principal, I would definitely gather all the strongest main forces in one place for a single breakthrough, and put more comprehensive teams elsewhere to prevent any accidents. Since the second one It has been defeated, and the speed will become faster and faster.”
The interval between the defeat of the Chaos Heart and the rise of the purple beam at the Eye of the Cloud is about an hour, which means that it does not take a lot of time to make colonial weapons and armor. This is a premeditated action. . As the number of defeated Dominators increases, the number of warriors with Dominator-level equipment in the principal's team will also increase, and those who follow will only lose faster and faster.
Cryptomeria's expression was as if she was dreaming.
Not much time has passed since she first met Lu Ning. Her understanding of the world has changed from hiding from powerful monsters to survive to the top rulers being defeated one by one?
"But if the principal succeeds..."
"The fundamental purposes of the principal and the engineer are contradictory. The principal wants to stabilize the world here and connect with the original world, while the engineer wants to isolate these nine worlds. This determines that they cannot achieve unity. The engineer will definitely be there Stop the principal when his plan is about to succeed." Lu Ning said.
"I remember that one of your clones seemed to be in trouble with the engineer, right?"
"It takes time to find trouble across so many worlds, and the engineer's obstruction methods can only be advanced. If the engineer cannot continue to implement his plan, then he will definitely initiate some final plan to ensure that everything goes smoothly."
"What's the difference between the two?" Yan Rong asked.
"The engineer probably didn't mean to kill everyone. He just wanted to isolate the world here. But the final plan definitely didn't consider that much."
Just as they were talking, they had already arrived at the location where the merchant would appear according to the direction indicated by the pointer. This time it was the registration hall of the school hospital. Many people had gathered here. They all had uneasy looks on their faces. It was obvious that they did not understand what was going on in the outside world, and they did not feel safe hiding here.
There are still some tourists here, but the number is not very large. Their calm temperament makes it easy to distinguish them from others.
"Sure enough, most of them have already been included. It doesn't matter...oh." Lu Ning glanced around and saw a difficult target. At this time, Yan Rong beside him had already stretched out his hand to hold Liu Shan's shoulder.
Teng Zijian, Liu Shan, and Chen Qiguang were standing together with Sun Bin's team, discussing something in a low voice at the corner of the corridor. When they saw Lu Ning and the others, these three people were stunned for a moment. Then they saw Lu Ning again. Cryptomeria next to her was even more stunned.
After a long time, everyone finally met again, but this time the meeting was a little awkward.
Liu Shan on the opposite side was obviously the most surprised person. Sun Bin also turned his head several times with a look of disbelief on his face. Fortunately, their movements were very small and did not attract too many people's attention.
"Let's go there, Cryptomeria, you know..."
"I can clearly distinguish the situation. Now is not the time for internal strife." Liu Shan whispered, but his mood was obviously a little low.
When the four of them approached, Sun Bin took the lead and stopped them.
"Guys, what on earth is this..."
"Let's bid farewell to the lights. I wonder who is there? And Sun Bin, since you are walking with them, was the last time we met in the world of heavy rain?" Lu Ning said.
Sun Bin nodded doubtfully, but Teng Zijian had a serious face: "Lu Ning! There are monsters that turn into humans in this world! That guy is..."
"It's also Liushan." Lu Ning interrupted him, "Time is tight, so just listen to me first."
She quickly gave a concise explanation of the most important things: the principal and the engineer's plan, the splitting of the nine clones, the colonial warriors, and a series of other key points. No matter how much they absorbed, In the end, the same narrow sword as the one in Teng Zijian's hand was taken out as evidence. After Teng Zijian confirmed that his mark was indeed engraved on the inside of the scabbard, there was no doubt anymore.
It's just that Liu Shan is a little uncomfortable with it. The gap between the situations of Zhengshu and Yanfei is really too big. Such a comparison can easily cause cognitive bias.
"So what do you mean, the purple light outside just now means that the ruler of a certain world has been defeated?" Sun Bin was the one who reacted the fastest among the group, probably because it had nothing to do with him.
"That's probably what it means, because it is the same as the position of the ruler that I know. Besides, did you feel the cold air coming from the direction of the swimming pool increased sharply before?"
"How dare you go there? I just heard a noise from a distance." Sun Bin shrugged, "Is the relationship between gods and gods fighting? That's not what we mortals should care about."
"What must be considered now is another thing. You must know that no matter where the victory is, the world you already know how to survive will undergo drastic changes. The collision between the two forces will plunge all such small groups into a huge crisis. Crisis, maybe even death. Now we are faced with a situation where we have to escape from this world before the dust of the conflict between the two sides settles."
Sun Bin would understand this if he thought about it more.
As he was talking, the ground suddenly began to shake. Everyone grabbed the things around them, and those who were bolder ran to the window and looked outside to see what was going on.
"It's ice! Ice beasts... Oh my God!"
In the sky and on the ground, a large number of ice beasts rushed towards the swimming pool from all directions, completely ignoring the people passing by. And the shivering chill came from the distance again. It was undoubtedly another cold wave impact. The white mist caused by breathing in the air had become thicker. People wrapped their coats tightly and huddled together, shivering.
"There is a fierce battle going on. It seems that the ice core is the third one." Lu Ning glanced at Sun Bin and said, "Once the decision is made, we need to take action immediately."
"How can an ordinary person like me help?" Sun Bin shrugged.
"The ice core may be defeated soon, and I will need your help after that, so I hope you will buy enough anti-cold equipment for this shopping trip. Although the ice core has been defeated, the temperature there is not expected to increase for a while." .”
"……good."
Lu Ning took out a small package from her backpack and handed it to Sun Bin, and said a few words. She didn't intend to convince everyone here, that was Sun Bin's business.
"We're leaving now."
"Eh? If you don't stay and wait for the merchant..."
Before he finished speaking, the ground shook, and ice-blue snowfall was visible to the naked eye in the direction of the swimming pool. The power emitted by colonial weapons intertwined into a patchwork of bizarre colors in the night sky. The battle had clearly entered its most intense moment. Affected by the impact, everyone in the hospital was a little unsteady on their feet, and gravel began to fall from the roof.
"This place is going to collapse!"
"Run away!"
Some panicked people began to flee. I don’t know when the group of ice beasts outside had disappeared. It seemed that all the ice beasts on campus had rushed in the direction of the ice core dancer. Lu Ning grabbed the window frame and looked outside. As the shaking became more severe, the strong cold gradually spread, and there was no doubt that ordinary people within close range would never have a chance to come out alive.
I wonder if Wei Shu saw what he wanted to see before he died?
"Is it the end of the world?"
In the hall, someone asked in a low voice. Although they had escaped from various monsters until now, they had never encountered such a big battle.
A beam of purple light shot up into the sky, and even the sky was dyed purple by the light. The shaking stopped, and the blue snow stopped falling. Only then did people realize that ice flowers had condensed on their hair and clothes. In their nervous state they didn't even notice.
"Ice Core...has been defeated."
At the same time, people in various worlds who were paying close attention to the war situation here received the same news.
=============
"The principal's actions must be stopped."
In a world where the rain is pouring, a door in the student service center is opened. Abnormal colloid is glued to the door frame to create a slightly distorted space. A middle-aged man with an unspectacular appearance and an amiable-looking woman. Walk out of the door.
"So far, Lu Ning has killed three pairs of 'us'."
"It's not surprising. The weapons she used were 'Judgment Day' and 'Ark', which are the top melee and long-range weapons from merchants. Our men don't have the ability to compete with this kind of force." The engineer's expression remained calm, " But that’s not important, because it’s just a personal grudge and seeking revenge. Anyway, the principal’s plan has begun to come to a head.”
"Do we need to give the principal an ultimatum?"
"He has not recognized the real problems in the world. Before that, the principal would not listen to anyone." The engineer smiled, "We have worked together for so many years and we always understand each other."
"But if we don't contact him now, the rulers of the nine worlds may soon be conquered."
"I just want to remind him of this. The nine so-called world rulers are just powerful force deterrents within this campus. Has he ever considered the broader outside world? Does he understand how to completely destroy the world? How dangerous is communication? This is a road of no return... The principal is already addicted to his own rapid development, but we can't." The engineer walked to the control room of the service center, which had been thoroughly inspected by the colonial warriors. But if it is discovered that they have arranged things in advance, the engineer will no longer be a core technician.
He moved the devices that looked abandoned for many years, unplugged dozens of cables, took out a few plugs and began to rearrange them.
"This place has been cleaned. The principal's people won't come back in a short time. We have enough time to start the next step - oh?"
The unknown power supply caused several screens to light up and the workbench returned to normal, but just when the engineer was about to enter the system he had set up, he received a communication request from an unknown source.
The engineer weighed it and connected the communication.
"The person over there should be the engineer. Hello, I am Lu Ning's last thought clone." An unhurried voice came from the microphone.
"It's her—" Audit wanted to cut off the communication, but the engineer raised his hand to stop him.
"Any advice?"
"I have caused a lot of trouble for you during this time because I want to attack. Since this matter is originally my responsibility, I am willing to provide some help."
"With all due respect, even you yourself may not be able to cope with the current situation."
"Before this, I have already asked my troops to control the areas surrounding the sympathetic devices in the two worlds of Shushi and Changming. I believe that no one under your command will be left alive under the triple cleaning of infrasound, poison gas and microwaves. Inside several buildings. The state of the epidemic world is relatively complicated, so I directly detonated the anti-matter bomb inside the sympathetic device there before sending people to evacuate. In other words, the total amount of energy you can currently use has been reduced by one-third."
Lu Ning paused here.
"you know?"
"It's obvious that a large amount of energy supply is needed in the nine worlds to provide you with the plan to isolate the world. The upper limit of the energy supply provided by the merchant is the fusion reactor, but that thing is too big. You have no ability to avoid the principal. If you look at it in any world, then the next best thing is to use the photon condenser to collect energy when the anti-matter bomb detonates to complete instant isolation. "
"You are seriously interfering with my plans."
"But I haven't found where your isolation device is located, so Mr. Engineer still has something to be proud of. Can we have a good talk now?"
The engineer was about to answer when he suddenly felt an itch on the back of his hand. A blue symbol appeared on the back of his hand. The same thing happened to the auditor next to him.
"Let's try to stop the attack first. We have been marked by Blue Judgment."
===============
In the frozen world, Lu Ning, Yan Rong, Ning Yeyi and Liu Shan left the school hospital and quickly rushed to the row of shacks where the professor's underground laboratory was located.
"The frozen world will be safe in a short time." Lu Ning said into the intercom.
There was a rustling sound inside.
"Okay, we're almost there."
The four of them were running as fast as they could. Now they didn't have to worry about a sudden attack from the monster. At their speed, it wouldn't take more than ten minutes to reach the shack.
At this moment, there was already a group of people waiting for Lu Ning. Headed by Henku, nearly twenty members who had been sheltered by the laboratory came to the frozen world through the shelter.
"Zhengshu, we are ready. Now a team is ready to go."
"Okay, I'll leave the Dream Mirror Passage to you, but you must pay attention. If the eighth beam of purple light appears, immediately order everyone to evacuate." Lu Ning said.
"No problem. Now we have to solve another matter. The attack has already appeared." Henku raised the tablet in his hand and opened a video for Lu Ning.
