14:00.
In the center of the room, a circular magic talisman array gradually extinguished.
The secret technique suspended in mid-air slowly fell to the ground, and the windless robe gradually returned to calm. Finally, he put away his wand, and the flames burning in the three eyes of this expert from the undead clan dimmed.
Surrounded by the magic talisman array, Yareli, one-seventh, and Tam stopped casting spells at the same time, looking tired.
"How is it?" Li Liang asked hurriedly.
The secret mandible opened and closed, and a voice came from the chest: "I didn't feel its existence."
Li Liang was stunned.
"Oh..." Tam said solemnly, "Originally, it would peek into the dungeon at a fixed time every day, so I had to build an illusory talisman array to deceive its gaze."
Li Liang frowned and said, "How did it do it?"
"Spiritual chain," the secret voice said dryly, "a rare type of control magic."
"When was the last time you snooped?"
Tam rubbed the beard on his lips: "Just before Fairy Kelly arrived in the dungeon."
"after that……"
"We left the dungeon after that, and it couldn't determine our location in a short time," Tam looked at Secret Technique, "Mr. Secret Technique..."
"Yes," the secret method said without thinking, "limited to the lack of spirit, it needs time to search for our spiritual imprints, and the gathering of humans will interfere with its sight."
"No, something's wrong..."
Li Liang paced back and forth and stopped for a moment: "Mr. Tam, why do you think the fourth princess imprisoned you in the Bureau of Order dungeon instead of Nirvana Building?"
"Oh, because..."
Tam was about to explain, but was interrupted by Yareli: "Because humans know that they have a shallow understanding of magic. If we were close at hand, that stupid inorganic life would have been burned to death in the wrath of Sargeras."
The succubus chuckled and snapped her fingers, causing a burst of fire to appear between her fingers.
"Oh, yes," Tam spread his hands, "I think that's why, for safety."
"Why doesn't it..." Li Liang's eyes swept over the faces of several consultants, and finally settled on Saron, who was curled up beside him, "Well..."
"Destroy us?" The trumpet Saron jumped out from the corner, as if he had heard the funniest joke, "A demigod made of flesh, Saron's evil iron will last forever!"
"Zizzizizi——" One-seventh of the spring expanded and contracted, and the body leaned forward and closed.
Li Liang was helpless: "What is it talking about?"
Yareli shook her tail: "It said that although the inorganic life was stupid, it was not stupid enough to offend Pulsar, Sayad, the Undead, and... the Toad Man at the same time."
"What did you think of?" Tam didn't know why. Apparently, in the opinion of the consultants, the answers to these questions were obvious and not worthy of discussion.
Li Liang felt a thought swirling in his mind and hesitated: "To start a new world, five spiritual cores must be collected?"
The secret method nodded: "Yes, it is bound by a special spiritual core made by goblins, swallowing human consciousness and stabilizing chaotic thinking, and reshaping the body with the help of a magic talisman array. This talisman array is very complex and requires at least five spiritual cores. It is driven by the spirit contained in it, but before that, it cannot move on its own.”
Li Liang felt a little surprised.
It turns out that the new world itself also has a spiritual core. It is thought that the psychics and the spirits that control people come from this. As soon as his thoughts changed, he remembered what Li Zhenguan had explained before, and then asked: "The talisman formation should have already started. If What will happen if there is no spiritual core within fourteen days?"
The secret method said dullly: "The 'New World' will collapse together with the talisman array. Since the spiritual core it relies on still contains immeasurable spirit, the rules of Aqilu will be destroyed in a short period of time."
"What's the meaning?"
"All matter within the entire Zhongjing City will change its form of existence, which is equivalent to death for humans."
Li Liang took a deep breath and looked ugly.
"Oh, don't worry," Tam patted his knee, "The talisman formation can last for at least eleven days. We have enough time to destroy it."
"I'm sorry, Li Liang," Secret Technique leaned forward, "I was blinded by greed. I thought it would gradually bring about subversive changes to magic theory under the control of psychics, but I didn't expect that humans only regard it as Weapons, ready to be matured at once with countless lives of the same kind. When I was imprisoned, I suddenly realized that greed cannot be curbed and will only continue to expand. Sacrificing thousands of lives is nothing compared to sacrificing hundreds of millions of lives. the difference."
Tam sighed.
"I am willing to make amends for my previous stupid actions," Mystic said, raising his wand horizontally. "Please allow me to join tonight's action."
Yareli spread her wings and swung her short whip: "Me too."
"Zi——"
Seventh shot an electric spark.
Li Liang nodded and looked at Saron.
"We are not going, we are staying," Saronye Iron muttered.
"..."
Tam noticed that Li Liang was still frowning and asked softly: "Oh, what are you worried about?"
"I still feel like something's wrong."

14:40.
Li Liang stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with his arms folded, overlooking the street below.
The first batch of movie fans have arrived at the event in front of the podium of the New Order Conference Building, and more people are arriving.
It was as if the whole city suddenly came to life, and all the streets in sight, no matter how wide or narrow, no matter how long, were submerged by the sea of people.
Crowds of people gathered from all directions, as densely packed as a migrating ant colony.
The ground is crowded with people, and the sky is equally busy.
Countless airships flew along different airspaces to the event site and hovered at different locations according to the transportation network plan, gradually forming a hemispherical formation in an orderly manner.
The scene in front of him was completely spectacular, but Li Liang didn't have the time to appreciate it, he was only anxious in his heart.
At this time.
K quickly approached and whispered: "Cain is setting off."
"Well," Li Liang thought for a while, "send a message to House... and ask him to find an opportunity to contact Cain. Tonight, all three commandos will be transferred to the Nirvana Building to cover Cain's raid."
"What are you worried about?" K hesitated, "Remove the commando team, our side..."
"I have a hunch that something is going to go wrong in the Nirvana Building," Li Liang turned around. "The consultants couldn't sense the existence of the new world, and Activision suddenly changed its attitude..."
"I heard Tam say these two things," K took off his sunglasses, "It's really not normal."
Li Liang paced back and forth, then stood still for a moment: "We have to change our plan and enter the joint meeting headquarters building in advance."
"Everyone?"
"No," Li Liang walked towards the door, "It's just me."
——————————
17:15.
New Order Joint Conference Headquarters Building.
In front of the podium, the stage for the "End of the Show Carnival" has not yet been unveiled. There is already a sea of people in front of the stage. Fans from different "camps" are frantically shouting the names of the characters they support. Some are in a mess, and some are in uniform.
The loudest among them is naturally "Andy".
In mid-air, a group of airships hovering in a hemispherical array flashed their headlights. On the ground, rolling holographic characters, waving flags and hoarse shouts pushed the atmosphere to the peak of fanaticism.
Behind the stage, there is a row of more than ten luxury pontoons connected end to end, with cylindrical hulls and different functions.
The pontoon near the stage is the broadcast control room, followed by the actors' dressing room, the leading actors' lounge, the supporting actors' lounge, and the studios of other cast and crew members.
The last pontoon boat was listed as "Security".
In the pontoon, Li Liang sat by the porthole, crossed his hands, and looked out the window calmly.
From his perspective, he could not see the scene in front of the stage. He could only see the sound equipment and the colored lights coming from the gaps, but the noise in his ears made him clearly feel the excitement of the crowd.
Unfortunately, such joy will come to an abrupt end soon.
Click.
The hatch opened and K got into the floating boat: "Cain is already in place. The commando team has just arrived near the Nirvana Building. As soon as the canopy weapon fires, they will start a raid."
"Okay, where are the others?"
"Tu Ran went to the subway entrance near the Order Bureau to meet Sonoya, Dr. Xisen was in the basement of the ASK Building, and Wang Shan led all the agents into the crowd in front of the stage. They are all waiting for your order," K took He took out a bracelet and handed it over, "Do you want to activate this bracelet?"
Li Liang took the bracelet and rubbed it gently.
At around three o'clock, Andy confirmed that he was willing to cooperate with his actions. At the same time, Hans also took the initiative to show his kindness and provided this kind of bracelet, which was claimed to use Activision's secret technology and could block all monitoring, including Activision itself and Xi'an.
"Polygrapher" Tam verified Hans's idea that there were no traps. It was unknown whether it could really block everything, so he had been hesitant.
After thinking for a moment, he put on the bracelet and said, "Use it."
"Okay, let's send someone to Sonoya, Dr. Xisen."
"Give one to Cain too," Li Liang thought for a while, "Let House go."
"Um."
"Is there any news about Sorge?"
"Yes..." K hesitated.
"explain."
"Sorge doesn't agree with you sneaking into the joint meeting alone," K whispered. "There are too many invisible gunmen, and the two goblin messengers are very vigilant. Starting half an hour ago, the walls inside the building were suddenly covered with vines. Aggressive."
Li Liang smiled: "Don't worry, Activision and the consultants will protect me."
"Advisor..." K took off his sunglasses and looked around the cabin, "Where have you been?"
——————————
17:30.
Behind the stage of the "End of the Play Carnival", four bodyguards surrounded a woman wearing a cheongsam towards the podium of the Joint Conference Headquarters Building.
As soon as the group stepped onto the stairs, heavily armed agents from the Supervision and Enforcement Bureau surrounded them.
"what's the matter?"
The woman crossed her arms and glanced at the agent who was speaking, with an arrogant expression: "Get out of here."
"Sorry, ma'am, I don't mean to offend..." The agent noticed the Activision logo on the woman's chest, "In extraordinary times, if Activision needs anything, I can convey it to you."
"You? Who do you think you are?" The woman raised her eyebrows.
The four bodyguards behind him raised their guns at the same time.
Wow.
The detectives responded without hesitation with a barrage of gunfire.
"It's not necessary, ma'am," the leading detective smiled, "It's all work, I have to give it to the boss."
"Humph," the woman blushed, "Idiot, I was entrusted by the president to communicate with Li Chengshu about security issues during the final event of the show. If something goes wrong, how will you explain it to the Activision family?"
suddenly.
A voice sounded from the top of the steps: "Ms. Sidingaya."
The woman raised her eyes and snorted coldly.
Everyone lowered their guns.
A middle-aged man in casual clothes walked down the steps quickly, spread his hands and said, "What's going on?"
"Li Chengshu's dog blocked the road. Why, Secretary Chen, the joint meeting is now in charge of the Supervision and Enforcement Bureau?"
"No," the middle-aged man waved his hand, "There has been chaos in China and Beijing recently. You also know about the mayfly thing, right. We all have to be careful. In this way, if Ms. Christine has any requests, please tell me directly. The Supervision and Enforcement Bureau will definitely Cooperate."
"Why, the joint meeting has become a restricted area?" Sidingya laughed angrily, "Whose order is this? Li Chengshu or the president?"
"Hey, what I said is not..." The middle-aged man was about to smooth things over when suddenly, the glass curtain wall on the third floor of the podium behind him shattered with a crash.
A bright arc of electricity flashed, followed by a burst of intense gunfire.
"No," Secretary Chen's face changed drastically, and he said hurriedly: "Ms. Xidingya, please wait a moment." After saying that, he waved his hand and ran towards the podium with all the armed agents.
Xidingya was stunned for a moment, and a bodyguard's voice came from behind: "Follow me."
She gave chase without hesitation, followed closely by four bodyguards.
moment.
A group of people followed Secretary Chen and rushed into the main entrance.
Sidingya exclaimed: "What on earth are you doing?"
At this moment, the vast hall was dimly lit, with layers of bunkers arranged and heavy weapons set up everywhere. It looked like a battlefield.
Explosions were heard continuously from one side, and a group of armed agents were running towards the direction of the sound.
Secretary Chen turned around and saw Xidingya following him. He waved his hand and said, "Take her to the security room first." After that, he hurriedly left.
"This way, ma'am," one agent deadpanned.
"Tell Li Chengshu, I'm waiting for an explanation," Xidinggeya shouted and walked to the other side of the hall with his head held high.
Walking around a huge support column, the group was led into an empty room.
The detective closed the door and looked at his nose and heart with no intention of leaving.
A few minutes later.
A man pushed open the door and entered.
The detective was stunned for a moment, lowered his head and said: "Mr. Sorge."
"go out."
Sorge's expression was calm and unmistakable.
After the detective left, he said again: "Get out."
The door to the security room opened and closed eerily on its own.
Sidingaya put away her arrogant expression, took out a small device from her bag, placed it in the center of the ground, and then nodded to a bodyguard.
The bodyguard tore off the fake beard and eyebrows on his face, spat out the stuffing in his mouth, and asked in confusion: "How did you get here so fast, where is the consultant?"
However, Sorge looked even more confused: "What consultant?"
"Wasn't Tam and you cooperating to create the chaos just now?"
"No," Sorge said solemnly, "Just now, Gu Sheng led people to sneak into the building and was discovered by the goblin messenger."
"Gu Sheng?"
Li Liang was shocked.
Gu Sheng personally led people to invade the joint meeting headquarters building?
The next moment, Li Zhenguan, Gu Sheng, and the four princesses were losing ground in the past two days. Countless details flooded into his mind, and he blurted out: "I understand, the four princesses want to take away the new world!"
