Above the blood-changing swamp, inside the floating city.
The two men were hurriedly making repairs, with two rows of gleaming silver and glass instruments placed on a flat piece of fluorescent rock.
"Put down the fender... no, no, no. Open the fender... weird." People with sharp voices and high noses said in unison, "Let's put it down."
Three of his hands were wearing pink rubber gloves, which covered eighteen slender fingers. At the moment, his fingers were moving like flying, and he was sweating profusely while inspecting the Huineng spinning wheel.
"Obviously all the light is there. Regular scanning is no problem. I just can't try to start it."
"What's going on?"
The man wearing pink gloves put down a folder and glanced sideways at the man holding the developing shuttle. "Cui Cui. You were on duty yesterday."
"So I discovered the fault yesterday! But you didn't get up until noon! Maybe the fault appeared the day before yesterday!" A man named Cui Cui complained while using the developing shuttle in the waterfall-like light flow of the Huineng spinning wheel. Beware of temptation.
They stood on a raised platform in the center of a small pool. The energy stream flowed down from the metal wheel of the spinning wheel, passed through a device that looked like a device used to create syrup waterfalls at banquets, wound in a serpentine shape, and then flowed into the pool.
"It would be troublesome if Lord UfaUfa sends the signal now. Is the receiver still on?"
"Nonsense, of course it's closed. Don't we need to check it?"
Cui Cui impatiently got down on all six limbs, his body almost parallel to the ground. He held up the shuttle with one slender arm and dipped it in the serpentine canal. He raised it from time to time to take a look. It looked like it had been crushed. The lobster said, "It can't be such a coincidence. Are you feeling better?"
"There's no problem with the mechanics. Let's look at the optical flow again."
"The flow of light... eh? Why is this section of energy ineffective?" Cui Cui looked at the developing shuttle in surprise - there was an obvious black line on it. "Who did it?"
"Is there any impurity in the energy?" The man in pink gloves heard the words and came over.
"No way... We personally supervised the construction of the energy source... Maybe one of the energy sources was attacked."
"Then why not just cut it off? Can the impurities be purified?"
"We have to take a look..." Beads of sweat rolled down Cui Cui's head. "I can not guarantee."
The gloved man grabbed the development shuttle, thrust it into the energy pool, stirred it vigorously, then lifted it up and looked at it - there was an inconspicuous white cilium on it.
"Demon elimination line." His tone also became tense. "Used by bounty hunters to hunt down spell casters."
"Bounty hunter? How can there be a bounty hunter against us? Damn it."
"I don't know. But this guy is probably scary."
The man wearing the gloves had a sullen expression on his face. "It's hard to get this stuff. It's extremely expensive, and it's worthless. Let alone processing.
The most terrifying thing is that this person not only can get this thing, but also knows how to deal with it. They also know to make it into fiber, use the mage tower to gather energy, and mix it into the transmitter. He must be a good hand at dealing with spellcasters. "
"The transmitter in the mage tower?" Cui Cui asked in surprise, "How could..."
"Stop talking. Let's fish it out quickly." The man wearing gloves threw a palm-sized metal net in front of him.
"How can you catch all this! They've all been mixed in!"
"It's over if you can't finish it! Do you want to be fried in Ufa Ufa?!"
Cui Cui had to accept his fate. He dipped the small metal mesh into the energy pool, feeling extremely desperate. Full of shouting. We are all experts in energy machinery, and we are not here to do this kind of menial work!
There were a few cilia on the net, and he wiped it on the edge of the pool, then reached down -
boom--
There was a sudden and terrifying collapse sound from below.
"Let me see!" Cui Cui was startled, dropped the metal net and ran towards the floor-to-ceiling windows of the floating city.
The sight before him stunned him.
Thermolan Academy, which almost fills one side of Empty Drawer Mountain, is falling apart. Chimneys were broken, rows of houses collapsed from the south, and even the four round towers on the north were crumbling. Sparks of magic exploded everywhere, and flames rose from the middle of the ruins.
Following a large landslide, at the highest point of the Empty Drawer Mountain in the inner courtyard, the mage tower that could reach the stars—it should be the private residence of Semoran Dean Anmesses swayed, fell down, and fell down. Half of it collapsed the large ring-shaped houses in front of it, and the upper half broke into more than ten pieces on the main square of the college.
Thick smoke billows.
"What? What happened!!" Cui Cui was stunned. "Xishu, come and see! Is it an earthquake?!"
Xi Shu crawled over, took a look, then threw away the metal mesh and the pink gloves.
"Pack your things," he said simply.
"We don't fish—"
Before he finished speaking, Cui Cui froze on the spot. A strong wind blew past him. Xi Shu was blasted out of the window.
Footsteps sounded from behind.
The frightening sound of footsteps.
"Lord Ufa Ufa..." Cui Cui said tremblingly.
"It's fucking awful. It's fucking awful."
Ufa Ufa sounded angry. "Are you ready to run away? Are you ready to leave this situation behind and run away? Are you ready to leave behind the devil and run away?
I thought my communicator was broken. what happened? Um? The Warlock Association gives you funds to support your projects, and you use this in return? They might as well open a brothel, really. Or give me the money. "
"Don't spare them," another voice said. Cui Cui has heard this sound before. The speaker is called Ungoro.
Cui Cui turned around tremblingly.
"The Council of Elders says your floating city system is impeccable."
Ufa Ufa's face turned pale, "I thought it would finally come in handy this time. What should I say? I started to have other ideas..."
"No! Don't!" Cui Cui shouted in fear. "Lord Ufa Ufa! Someone is causing trouble this time..."
"make trouble?"
"Xishu said..." Cui Cui glanced out the window in fear. Can Xishu survive if he falls? Everyone's body is very weak...
"Xishu said," he swallowed, "a bounty hunter has confused the energy source. We are investigating..."
"Trash!" Angoro cursed.
"Bounty hunter?" Ufa Ufa frowned.
"The bounty hunter who used the magic elimination thread. Xi Shu said he broke through a mage tower from inside, and then..."
"It's the cracked tower we just checked! Lord Ufa Ufa. That disgusting place in Wilenz!" Un'goro reacted immediately.
"If you put it this way, Nese the Lightless is not alone. He actually has helpers. In addition to the Destruction Sect, there are other helpers..."
Ufa Ufa pondered for a moment and turned to Ungoro. "Do you have any ideas about that bounty hunter?"
"Of course. No wonder!"
Angolo understood something and slapped his thigh. "No wonder she wanted to kill Oude! Blame me, blame me!!" He shouted regretfully.
"Oh? Is there really such a person? Did Nese hire that bounty hunter?"
"No. I think it's more than just employment." Angoro said through gritted teeth, "They cooperate very well. That bounty hunter, Winnie... should have been wanted by the whole city of Semoland. But I just got the wanted notice. With my order, Nese the Lightless One kidnapped me!!"
"This is not a big deal." Ufa Ufa said calmly, "Just stay in Semoland and participate in the reconstruction. During the reconstruction process, just issue a new wanted order.
I will also report Black Key to put this bounty hunter on the same level of wanted list. We have failed many times when facing demons. This bounty hunter is always human, right? "
"A half-elf. Woman. My lord."
"That's easier." Ufa Ufa smiled gloomily. "There are only a few half-elves. They are eye-catching and unpopular, and there is not much room for them. It might be a good idea to use her as a breakthrough point.
We don't need to be merciful to a half-elf... and she's a woman. I've thought of many unique ways to get her to talk. "
Ufa Ufa smiled.
He patted Cui Cui's thin shoulder suddenly - everyone's face trembled.
"Don't be afraid." He said with a slight smile, "The devil has been in Semolan. You won't find nothing these days, right?"
"Yes... yes!" Cui Cui said hurriedly.
