It was different after accepting the federal order as usual. When he entered the external elevator from the conference room on the 25th floor of Hongtai, and then walked into the underground floor like a huge cage, Duck was in an illusory, chaotic, and ethereal world. , in the feeling of helplessness.
The information about his own reincarnation told by "Void Ling" was difficult for even Dak, who had seen many extraordinary, magical and technological things, to understand and digest for a while.
He simply couldn't believe that he had been reincarnated three times because of the "Pattern of Re-selection", a high-dimensional sequential monster that he had never seen in reality.
Especially "death", which is something that is sure to come and go from far to near, he can't believe that he has experienced pain twice.
Until he met Wofya and walked into the arranged "dormitory No. 1", Dak felt that he had just been pulled into a pre-designed dream by Xu Ling, who had all the skills, and was hypnotized or It's seduction.
After all, he is not only good at divination and has the ability to control low-level "unintentional people", but he can also construct dreams between reality and illusion, causing people to accept wrong guidance, or fall into the alternation between reality and dreams, unable to extricate themselves and fall into chaos. .
However, in addition to having the ability to know the inevitable outcome of a specific event, construct a real alien scene, and guide someone from the dark to perform actions that they believe follow their will in a waking state, there are many unknown and rare things. Recorded special abilities.
He had a strange feeling, as if the previous two reincarnations and deaths had really existed, but after becoming a little more awake, Dak guessed that this was most likely a simple test of him by the "Order Society", or even some kind of revenge. .
Walking into the room, with his hands propped up on the mahogany desk with a strong Fire Empire style, he decided not to completely believe in "Void Zero", nor to rule out the possibility of reincarnation.
He wanted to walk into the glacier, pass through the wind wall, find the evil god "Echoer" and the god "Eternal Red Lord" in person, and ask the "Plamini" behind everything to tell him the truth personally.
In a trance, Duck took out the unusually new "old-fashioned radio" in his military backpack. After lying on the table and gradually falling asleep, he seemed to hear the country tune that came from it again, but this time, it was It was sung in Kruse German.
…
June 2, 557 in the New Era, Crusted Federation, western part of the Extreme Cold Zone, Area A.
Standing in front of an ancient and mysterious huge vertical cave nearly 100 meters deep, Luo Ka used the "Yongguang" brand flashlight produced by Nanfang to look down from a high point.
He is a lost person. He possesses the "Pain" level magic power of level 5 of the fire magic power. Although he does not have the profession of "Wind Mine" that has become a monster, and he does not possess the possession of "Flame Extinction" that has been confirmed to be dead. An extremely agile and stealthy profession, but an indescribable spirituality that has lingered in the depths of his mind since birth made him never fear anything extraordinary or evil.
Even though there was enough maddening "sadness" in this place close to the center of the "Bitter Ruins", he did not feel the slightest discomfort.
With brightness as bright as sunlight, Luo Ka and Naha Ka on his shoulders saw a world belonging to the last two eras. From near to far, what caught his eyes were dilapidated and dilapidated manually excavated stone stairs, leading to a more mysterious and profound realm below.
The break near the middle of the steps is covered with moss, but finely carved stone slabs can be vaguely seen. There are still murals with vaguely identifiable patterns in the surrounding and top spaces, depicting the five great warriors of mankind using sealed artifacts to resist the dragons, and giving them the final blow near the "Zhuogen Pillar".
Luo Ka knew very well how many sad souls were buried in the "Bitter Relics". Even if the flashlight gave absolute and seemingly supreme light, he did not dare to move forward at all, let alone speed up his breathing rhythm, making the surroundings messy. The "sorrow" quietly changed his perception.
Looking towards the lower space, the mural displays incomplete patterns of sequence cards and unique and incomprehensible characters written in "Central Language". But those unusually new and complete pigments appeared a little closer to the bottom, writing stories about the Fire Empire's "Dragon Qing" and the Floating God Realm.
This mysterious, unknown, and interesting realm gives intruders a sense of historical weight and beauty, enough to capture all explorers who are fascinated by history and turn them into a pool of fleeting bones.
After all, at the end of these stone stairs is a deep vertical cylindrical cave. A slender ring close to the wall divides the place into two distinct "stages".
Luo Ka sighed in his heart, if only he had the camera that was popular in the old empire mentioned by Brother "Ice Blade". Taking photos of such wonderful and fantastic scenes would be enough to surprise him, but it's a pity that "camera" is such a thing. Too expensive and too difficult to reproduce.
Suppressing the indescribable sense of suffocation and oppression, Luo Ka tried his best to surge the magic power of fire in his body, forming a blazing shield in front of him to improve the airflow, disperse the "sadness", and reduce cognitive confusion. possibility.
After closing his eyes and taking a few breaths, he continued to look toward the bottom.
Here stands a ten-meter-high statue of Ivan XXII of the old empire, with a metallic luster on the outside. In front of it is a model of an Aerospace Forces aircraft, and behind it is a round, saucer-like piece of technology. A creative product, and on both sides are two precision, high-rise telescopes.
A smooth plastic template is attached to the surrounding walls, which seems to be connected to a circuit. It shines with bright blue light spots, seeming to form the layout of stars.
And the ground below all this is a circular door leading deeper. Except for the realm of darkness and chaos further away, there is finally nothing superfluous here.
After silently recording important information and sketching a pencil drawing with simple lines, Luo Ka turned off the flashlight completely, looked forward, and slowly retreated back until he exited the teleportation magic door with a chaotic red-purple vortex. We arrived in a dark space full of plants.
Leaning on a large wet stone, with his feet soaked in the stagnant water, Luo Ka took a deep breath. Finally, he could no longer suppress the violent beating of his heart and gasped for air.
After a while, with stars in his eyes, he slowly fell to the ground, wiped the sweat off his face, and said in a childish voice:
"'Bitter Ruins', Brother 'Ice Blade' is right, this place is really dangerous."
After a low meow, the Krusted blue cat Nahaka, who had been standing on his shoulder, quickly jumped on a plant branch nearby, swaying slightly up and down, and responded:
"Indeed, Lorca. According to legend, this is probably the tomb where Ivan XXII and several Crusad emperors were buried together. It is not easy to break through the magic constraints from here and embed it in the core area of the jump array communication. It is necessary. You know, the former orthodox bishop was very cruel. People at that time believed that the emperor was the son of the orthodox lord, the incarnation of the god, and the ruler appointed by the Creator.
"Whenever they died, countless slaves and servants were 'voluntarily' buried. Their bodies would be sacrificed to 'Plamini' in exchange for the weakening of ice and snow, in the hope of expanding the cultivable area to increase food production. .Since the Third Era, these people have been sacrificed to the 'Supreme Manager of Ice and Darkness', the god named 'Lord of the Dark Night', in order to weaken the invasion of ice.
"However, under normal circumstances, the bodies of these martyrs will rot with the earth, but the souls are extracted before death to maintain the stability of the magic source here. Ivan XXII once approved a project to dig through the mainland. The great project is right here, at the bottom of the 'Brutal Ruins'."
"So, a few months ago, I was ordered to take away the 'Device Limit 11: Perception Concealment' device made by the 'Machine Man' near Mayang City. It was brought here due to an extreme coincidence, but our lost brothers I searched hard for several months but couldn't find it. Actually, it was because it fell into the most... uh"
"'The bottom bottom,' Lorca."
"Yes, 'lower bottom'...?"
"This is the only possibility." Nahaka licked his dirty paws and said:
"I have used 'Perception Concealment' many times, you know this, Luo Ka. Any small fluctuations in its magic power cannot escape my perception. But even if I just walked into this jump formation, All I can say is that the familiar 'feeling of companionship' has deepened a bit."
"Does this mean good news?" Lorca asked.
"It means a worse situation." Nahaka said:
"It is said that Ivan XXII used the most top-notch team and the most sophisticated engineering equipment to dig down nearly 10,000 meters, but in the end, he gave up because he heard a blood-curdling scream of pain.
"You know, Lorca, many people who communicate with the gods in the dark direction, especially the Lord of the Night, will often see scenes from hell and hear the miserable sounds of pain. When the workers who operate the machinery give the recorded sounds to After hearing this, they all said that it was indeed from hell.
"In other words, Hell is not only real, but it may be located slightly below where the excavations stopped.
"The pain of the martyrs, the regrets of the Crusad emperors, coupled with the pain from hell, it is difficult not to make people crazy. Lorca, do you believe it, if you had just stayed for one more minute, or stepped forward again If you take one step, you will immediately be infected by 'sad' and hurt yourself."
"I...I believe it, Nahaka." Lorca nodded and said:
"But if the chip represented by 'Perceptual Hidden' cannot be obtained, there will be no way to embed it in Yato's brain and find the 'Evolution Platform' ahead of the Federation. Naturally, there will be no way to activate the 'Mind Console' to stop Vasily's attack." Plan. Alas, as you know, all the divination of the 'Evolution Table' points to the worst possible disaster."
"Now we still have a glimmer of hope." Nahaka expressed his attitude:
"Even though the guy 'Yan Xi' is dead, the 'Axe of Pramini' transformed from 'Wind Mine' is still there. Your big brother 'Bing Blade' should be arriving at the camp soon. Ask him to control it well." A huge, ferocious monster. As long as his body absorbs enough 'Shang' and then kills him, we can buy enough time for us to enter the deepest part and find the crazy 'flying alien monster'. In fact, as long as we take It’s enough to get the chip back.”
