The second hand of the watch on Albert Einstein's wrist was trembling slightly and moving forward. Square by square, the speed is even.
Connor Phillips is back in his office. With an indifferent smile on his face, he spread his hands: "It's done." Einstein blinked and frowned slightly: "Connor, you won't have to pay a high price to solve the problem of rugged time zones. The price, right? Based on what little mysticism I know, these so-called gods always charge a high price."
"I've said it, don't worry, Al. Of course you have to pay something, but it's all trivial, so don't worry about it." After saying that, Phillips stood up and took down a chessboard with black and white grids from the bookcase: " Kill him?" Einstein's brows unfurled: "Okay, old man. It's still the same as before." Some people couldn't find the old president at the venue, and they didn't know that he was hiding in the office now, following It was a great time to get together with old classmates.
In the president's office on the 99th floor of the Explorer Center Building, two old men were chatting and playing chess.
In the banquet hall on the 28th floor, the reception is still being held. In the lounge on the same floor, Van Gogh was chatting immersedly with Sean and his party.
On the fifth floor underground, in the cave at the center of the spiritual network, a black cat was lazily wagging its tail and pacing slowly.
Schrödinger's cat followed Einstein to North New York, and he just wanted to look around. He was not interested in gatherings of people wearing masks, nor did he want to watch two old men playing chess, so he jumped into the underground world and took a leisurely walk.
Since a cocktail party was being held upstairs, the Spirit Network Center was still on low alert. The guards wearing red masks did not notice a black cat doing this.
"visit". The black cat walked to the center and saw the stone mask floating in the light and the emaciated body.
"Repentant Mars", a former Ace-level explorer currently serving a prison sentence. The black cat stared at the silent mask, blinking its two-color pupils, and observed Mars' past through the windows of time.
He is a powerful explorer and former preparation Joker. But he once had a weakness, his wife Anna, whom he loved deeply.
Anna encountered misfortune and became an immortal spirit. Bewitched by selfish motives, in order to protect his
"Ghost Bride", Mars killed many Explorers by himself, including even his own teammates... Before becoming an Ace-level fallen Explorer, his conscience finally made him repent, and he finally came here voluntarily to atone for his sins. Serve sentence.
An unmitigated tragedy. Black Cat sighed in his heart and suddenly felt movement behind him. Who's coming?
The black cat took silent steps and shuttled behind a hidden stone platform above the center... The visitor did not seem to alert the guards.
He had a tall and lanky figure and quietly walked up to Mars. Looking at the chiseled side face and the iconic thick mustache, Black Cat couldn't help but wonder: "Isn't this Nietzsche? Vice president of the association?
"Why is he sneaking here?" However, although he looks like Nietzsche in appearance, his temperament is somewhat different.
There is some great madness in the dark shadows. With a strange expression on his face, Nietzsche spoke to Mars in a low voice.
The black cat's ears moved slightly, but the sound waves could not escape his ears: "Mars, Anna has not found peace. Because of her rare immortality, that guy Phillips gave an order to use her for research. She arrived I'm still wailing in the spirit research room..." As he spoke, something black and spider-like spread out from his fingertips, seeming to open some kind of restriction in the center.
The stone mask that had been unresponsive suddenly lifted up. Nietzsche had a crazy smile on his face and nodded slightly. He took two steps back and disappeared into the darkness... The black cat narrowed his eyes slightly.
While gazing at Mars just now, he accidentally caught a glimpse of Anna's fate. The poor woman had already reentered the spirit ring... Why would that guy make up such a lie?
In the light, the thin body began to tremble, and the stone mask was also shaking. The black cat can only observe, not interfere.
He felt a rather unpleasant atmosphere, and took another step to reach a higher place. Overlooking the entire underground spiritual network, he found a black sphere emerging next to Mars, and the surrounding light turned into angry red.
The spiritual network connecting all the prisoners, like a root system, seeped out wisps of blood.
He is absorbing more hatred and anger through the entire spiritual network. All kinds of laughter and wails erupted in the underground spiritual network, as if they knew that the demon leader was about to launch a counterattack on the human world, and countless little ghosts were clamoring in the depths of hell... Nietzsche had just created a terrible thing.
Something bad is going to happen. The black cat turned around and came to the table where Einstein and Phillips were playing.
The physicist blinked at his sudden appearance. Black Cat said: "There is something strange happening underground. You need to tell Phillips." After returning to the banquet hall, Moonlight still felt like he was in a dream.
Before tonight, he dreamed of meeting Van Gogh. Unexpectedly, Van Gogh not only entertained him, but even expressed that he liked his performance.
The two even became friends. After realizing that there were many similarities between herself and this painting master, Yueguang felt an unprecedented wonderful feeling, like a dream come true.
In order not to disturb Van Gogh's rest, they said goodbye temporarily, but left each other's contact information and agreed to meet again in the future.
This year has been a perfect year. Moonlight took a sip of sweet White Russian. Sean was promoted to King.
Samo was born. I became friends with Van Gogh. This year has been a perfect year. Thank God. When Moonlight was still immersed in happiness, Sean felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere at the venue.
President Phillips, who had been missing before, hurriedly appeared. He summoned the vice presidents, ministers and Ace-level figures, and was saying something with a serious expression.
After hearing this, Arthur's expression changed and he kept asking what he was talking about. Phillips kept shaking his head. The music stopped, and people stopped whispering and turned to the group of big shots talking.
Nietzsche turned around and raised his hands: "I'm sorry, friends, due to some emergencies, I'm afraid tonight..." Before he could finish his words, a bang interrupted his voice - Banquet Hall It was said that some of the glass products had exploded.
Glass cups, chandeliers, and windows all shattered at the same time, making an explosion that made the hair on the body stand on end.
Someone screamed. Someone was shouting. The explorers of King level and above were all standing still, their sides lit up, exuding a calming atmosphere... In the chaos, Sean saw Nietzsche's face.
The vice president seemed very nervous, his cheeks tensed up. what happens? Sean and the four of them switched into battle formation in an instant.
He shook the Explorer Poker and found that it had no effect. The ground in the center of the hall arched, flames burned through the ground, and a human figure wrapped in energy appeared.
A very unpleasant atmosphere, too strong hatred...
"Repentant Mars?" Sean frowned.
"Why did he come out?"
